Document 3/6/2 (Stringer, Earl David Acta, no. 27)

Description
David, earl of Huntingdon, has given and granted Fintry (ANG) to Hugh Giffard in feu and heritage, in augmentation of the other feu which the earl gave him.
Firm date
1173 X 1174
Dating Notes
Use of first seal and Scribe A, who penned documents dating to 1172 and 1174, point to the period 1173 × 1174, when David (unsuccessfully) claimed the earldom of Huntingdon. It is possible that he continued to use his first seal after his accession to the earldom in March 1185. See Stringer, _Earl David_, 235, for full explanation of dating.
