Reinald Macer
Reinald Macer (called Reginald ) (died 1213) was a medieval Cistercian monk and bishop, active in the Kingdom of Scotland during the reign of William the Lion. Originally a monk of Melrose Abbey, he rose to become Bishop of Ross in 1195, and held this position until his death in 1213. He is given the nickname ''Macer'' in Roger of Howden's ''Chronica'',〔Watt, ''Fasti Ecclesiae'', p. 266.〕 a French word that meant "skinny".〔Duncan, "Roger of Howden", p. 145.〕
==Pre-episcopal life==
It is thought possible that Reinald had been in the company of Roland, Lord of Galloway, at some point, perhaps being involved with Roland's foundation of Glenluce Abbey in January 1192; again on purely speculative grounds, he may have had some involvement at Kinloss Abbey in the late 1180s.〔 Reinald was a monk of Melrose Abbey when, on 27 February 1195, he was elected to succeed Gregoir as Bishop of Ross, an episcopal see whose seat at that time was located in Rosemarkie.〔Dowden, ''Bishops'', p. 210; Duncan, "Roger of Howden", p. 144; Watt, ''Fasti Ecclesiae'', p. 266. See also below.〕
His election was recorded and indeed celebrated by the ''Melrose Chronicle'', written at the abbey:
This historian Richard Oram declared that his appointment "provided the crown with a dependable ally in an influential position, within a region where its authority continued to be challenged".〔Fawcett & Oram, ''Melrose Abbey'', p. 29.〕 The occurrence of the election at Dunfermline, a long way from Rosemarkie, was probably to secure royal control.〔Dowden, ''Bishops'', p. 210; see Fawcett & Oram, ''Melrose Abbey'', p. 29, for a similar comment.〕
Reinald, as "Bishop-elect" (''electo Rosensi''), is found witnessing a confirmation by the king of a grant by Jocelin, Bishop of Glasgow, to Jedburgh Abbey on 4 July; it was issued at Jedburgh.〔Barrow (ed.), ''Acts of William I'', no. 379.〕 Between his election and consecration, Reinald was found witnessing a charter by Bishop Jocelin to Melrose Abbey.〔This is discussed on Duncan, "Roger of Howden", p. 135-6; charters are ''Melrose Liber'', nos. 121 & 122 (confirmation copy).〕 The ''Chronicle of Melrose'' goes on to say that Reinald was consecrated at St Andrews by John, Bishop of Dunkeld.〔Stevenson (ed.), ''Chronica de Mailros'', p. 102, trs. Anderson, ''Early Sources'', vol. ii, p. 343; see also Dowden, ''Bishops'', p. 210; Duncan, "Roger of Howden", pp. 136, 144; Watt, ''Fasti Ecclesiae'', p. 266.〕
