What primary sources validate this profile as a sibling of Somerled, “King of the Isles”?

This guy has a matronymic, not a patronymic, which suggests two things: 1) his mother's name was "Margad" (Margaret) or some variation thereof, and 2) she was more important than his father, or his father was unknown.
