Ketill's wife was Yngvild Ketilsdóttir, daughter of Ketill Wether, a hersir from Ringarike.

* The Norse sources have Ketill's daughters Thorunn marrying Helgi inn magri, a grandson of Cerball mac Dúnlainge, and Auðr marrying Olaf the White, both of whom were prominent figures in Ireland, suggesting significant connections between Ketill and the mid 9th century political landscape of that region.

Ketill did so but paid no tribute at which point Harald took possession of what was owed from possessions of Ketill in Norway and sent away Ketill's sons.

Most of Ketill's family eventually emigrated to Iceland.

If Ketill's suzerainty post-dates this time, it is hard to see how Thorstein the Red, an adult grandson of his, could have been in active in the 870s and 880s.

It is therefore likely that Ketill's floruit in the Hebrides was at a period that pre-dates Harald's victory at Hafrsfjord.

Ketill's nephew Orlyg Hrappsson is linked to the Celtic church and was a follower of St Columba.

The story of Ketill and his daughter Auðr ( or Aud ) was probably first recorded by the Icelander Ari Þorgilsson who lived from 1067 to 1148.

In the Eyrbyggja Saga, it says, “ Ketil Flat-Nose arranged the marriage of his daughter Aud to Olaf the White, the greatest warrior-king at that time in the British Isles .” By noting that Ketil Flat-Nose purposely married his daughter off to a well-known warrior when he got on the bad side of King Harald Fine-Hair brings to light the importance of marrying well to protect your family.
