		<description><![CDATA[One of the difficulties of researching medieval times is that of repetitive names, and people with a multitude of names.  In medieval Scotland, there are an abundance of Williams, Alexanders, and Roberts.  Even adding last names doesn&#8217;t always help.  Take the name John Comyn.  In the time of Robert Bruce, alone, there are several of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[February 10 is the day Robert Bruce killed John Comyn in front of the altar of Greyfriars Kirk in Dumfries, in 1306.  The two families, Bruces and Comyns, had long been at odds over the throne of Scotland, and in the days after John Baliol&#8217;s failed kingship, the rivalry renewed.  Bruce and John Comyn agreed to meet at [...]]]></description>
