Question on Robert the Bruce

I'm trying to find the connections from Robert the Bruce to David I

I see where they say Robert is a 4th great-grandson of David but I cant seem to find the connections....

The reason I'm asking is that it turns out I'm in the line....I get to David with no issues but after that, just cant seem to find the path.

Thanks,

Jim

Jim, the connection is as follows:

Robert the Bruce's grandfather was married to Isobel of Huntingdon; Isobel was the daughter of David, the Earl of Huntingdon; David was the son of Henry, the Earl of Northumbria; Henry was the third son of David I and brother of Malcolm IV and William I!
