Reginald (bishop of the Isles)

Reginald (died circa 1226) was an early 13th-century Bishop of the Isles. According to the Chronicle of Mann, he was related to the Crovan dynasty, the royal family of the Kingdom of the Isles. The chronicle specifically states that he was the son of a sister of Olaf Godredsson, King of the Isles (died 1237).

In 1217, with the death of Nicholas, Bishop of the Isles (died 1217), two candidates vied for the vacant position—Reginald and Nicholas, Abbot of Furness. Although the monks of Furness Abbey had elected Nicholas as Bishop of the Isles, as was their right, Nicholas received opposition from the ruling family of the Isles, and never occupied the see.
