Adam of Kilconquhar
Adam of Kilconquhar (died 1271) was a Scottish noble from the 13th century. Of Fife origin, he is notable for becoming the husband of the Countess of Carrick and participating in Crusade with Louis IX.
==Background==
Evidence indicates that Adam was from MacDuff family; he was probably the son of Duncan of Kilconquhar, son of Adam (son of Duncan, Earl of Fife), who appears frequently as a witness in the documents of St Andrews Cathedral Priory as ''Adam frater comitis'', i.e. brother of Earl Duncan II.〔Barrow, ''Robert Bruce'', pp. 25, 331 n. 25〕 It is likely that Adam's mother was from the Comyn family:〔Watt, ''Biographical Dictionary'', pp. 107–08〕 his brother William was called 'Comyn' in his papal letter of appointment as bishop of Brechin.〔Watt, ''Biographical Dictionary'', p. 108〕
Kilconquhar in south-east Fife was the seat of this family's holdings. The feudal arrangement that evolved in the 12th and 13th centuries was complicated, in that although the Kilconquhar was held of the bishop of St Andrews, the bishop in turn held it from the earl.〔Barrow, ''Robert Bruce'', p. 331 n. 25〕
