  RESEARCH NOTES:
  843-858: King of the Picts and Scots [Ref: Weis AR #170]
  King of Picts and Scots [Ref: Moncreiffe p20]
  
  843-858: King of Dalradia and Scots [Ref: Tapsell p180] last King of Picts
  (Drust) ended reign in 848 [Ref: Tapsell p179]
  
  839-840: seized the kingship of Dal Riata, and made a bid for the kingship of
  the Picts. Legends suggest he achieved this by trechery, slaying his Pictish
  guests at a feast.  Whatever the means, Kenneth defeated his last Pictish
  rival by 848 [Ref: Davidson 1995]
  
  united both nations through his Piish royal blood [Ref: Moncreiffe p20]
  
  849: celebrated his victory by building a church dedicated to St. Columba
  in his new Pictish lands [Ref: Davidson 1995]
  
  succeeded by his brother, Donald [Ref: Davidson 1995]
  
  In 789, the branch of the Cenel nGabrain represented by the descendants of
  Fergus Mac EOCHAID took control of the kingship of the Picts.  For the next
  fifty years, with the exception of one three year period of joint kingship,
  they had a monopoly on its power.  Since Fergus' descendants also had a claim
  to the kingship of Dal Riata, there are also several examples of individuals
  holding the two kingships subsequently or even simultaneously.  The Pictish
  kingship was the gem of eighth and ninth century Scotland, and the success of
  the descendants of Fergus in holding it marginalized other branches of the
  Cenel nGabrain.  It probably explains why the children and grandchildren of
  Aed Find are so obscure.  It is probable that they would have disappeared from
  recorded history were it not for the disaster which befell the descendants of
  Fergus in 839 - The heathens (i.e. Vikings) won a battle against the men of
  Foirtriu, and Eoganan son of Eongus (the king of the Picts), Bran son of
  Oengus, Aed son of Boanta (the king of Dal Riata) and others almost
  innumerable fell there.  Eoganan and Bran were grandsons of Fergus, and their
  death probably left the descendants of Fergus without a viable candidate to
  the kingship, leaving a power vacuum in Scotland.  This presented a golden
  opportunity for other dynasties to assert their position, and the sons of
  Alpin were all to happy to seize the moment. [Ref: Davidson 1995]
