Patrick I (1152 – 1232), Earl of Dunbar and lord of Beanley, was a 13th-century 
Anglo-Scottish noble.

He was the eldest son of Waltheof, Earl of Dunbar and Alina, and succeeded to his 
father's titles upon the latter's death in 1182.

Patrick was one of the most important magnates to Kings William and Alexander II of 
Scotland, frequently witnessing their charters and traveling in their entourages 
whenever they went to the south of England to perform homage to the King of England 
for the properties in that realm.

Patrick also served as Justiciar of Lothian as well as Warden of Berwick-upon-Tweed. 
Patrick held, like his predecessors (who were originally of the kindred of the native 
English earls of Northumberland), some of his most important lands were in northern 
England. Patrick's close association with the Scottish kings in fact got him in trouble, 
and perhaps because of Alexander II's pursuit of claims to the earldom of 
Northumberland, Waltheof found himself temporarily deprived of some of his lands by 
King John of England.

Patrick married (1) Ada (died 1200), an illegitimate daughter of King William the Lion, 
by whom he had four sons:
Patrick (his successor),
William, who witnessed a charter as "fratre Comitis" c1240-1248[1]
Robert,
Fergus.

His first wife predeceasing him, Patrick married again: (2) Christina, widow of William 
de Brus, 3rd Lord of Annandale. No children are known by this marriage.

The Earl of Dunbar died on 31 December 1232. He was buried at the Cistercian 
nunnery of Eccles, Berwickshire.
