"One of King William's most favored companions; had numerous manors at Domesday; md Agnes (1040)(2nd mar. for both...), d. of Waldren de St.Clare." {-"Some Early English Pedigrees," Vernon M. Norr (Arlington, VA, 1968, typescript, p. 34, used at
Library of Congress, 7/89)} Conflicting
accounts of his parentage exist among genealogists; I have used the reasoning given in "The Bruce Journal," Vol. 1, No. 4 (Fall, 1990), p. 46. William built the great Bramber Castle at Stynning, Sussex; he held the "rape of Bramber." Also see the
discussion of his identity in "Falaise Roll" (Baltimore: Gen. Pub. Co, 1994), pp. 35-36.

"Smyth (Alfred the Great) says she married Conrad of Burgandy. There is
confusion in that she married "a Prince near the Alps"; but Boleslaw seems
the most likely." - Brian Thompsett ( 1999) at his Web site:

"The extent of Otto the Great's dominions compelled him to delegate much of
his authority in Saxony, and in 960 he gave to a trusted relative, Hermann
Billung, certain duties and privileges on the eastern frontier and from
time to time appointed him as his representative in Saxony. Hermann
gradually extended his authority, and when he died in 973 was followed by
his son Bernhard I, who was undoubtedly duke of Saxony in 986."
{-Encycl.Brit.,`56,20:33} Hermann's wife is Hildegarde of Westerbourg.

"The Old Lords of Raby," by John L. Low (booklet, 1879, used at Bodleian Library, Oxford, England, 5/87) states that Waltheof was (Saxon) Earl of Northumberland at the time the City of Durham was founded and resided at Bamburgh Castle where his son
Uchtred stopped a major Scottish invasion of England. His name is given as Siward, Earl of Northumberland, Northumbria,
Northampton and Huntingdon by Carr P. Collins, "Royal Ancestors of Magna Charta Barons" (Dallas, 1959, pp. 199-200). "The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle" edition of 1961 indicates on a chart, p.218, that this person is "Waltheof, Earl of Northumbria beyond the
Tees [river], probably descendant of the high-reeves of Bamburgh." Brian Thompsett of the University of Hull (http://www.dcs.hull.ac.uk/cgi-bin/gedlkup/n=royal?royal01771) gives his death as 1006 and his accession as ca. 965.

"The Scots Peerage," ed. by Sir James Balfour Paul, 4:135: "The first Lord
or Prince of Galloway on record is Fergus, styled `of Galloway', who
appears as a witness to a charter by King David I, granting land to the
Church of Glasgow on 7 July 1136 when that church was dedicated.... Little
is known of his personal history, but like King David I...he gave liberally
to the church, and was the founder of several abbeys in his own district.
...Towards the close of his life, and after King David's death, Fergus
appears to have been drawn by the claims of relationship to take part in
the insurrection of Donald MacBeth, or at least to afford him shelter in his
territories. There Donald was pursued by King Malcolm IV, who succeeded in
1160 in reducing the rebellious district to submission, and Fergus, perhaps
because of advancing age, took the cowl, and became a monk in the then new
Abbey of Holyrood, where he died in 1161. He is said to have married
Elizabeth, the youngest natural daughter of Henry I of England, but the
authorities quoted by Chalmers, who makes the statement, do not bear out
his assertion. However, Hovendon (who knew the Galloway chiefs personally)
and Benedict Abbas both refer to Uchtred, eldest son of Fergus, as cousin
of Henry II. This epithet is NOT applied to Gilbert, and he may be a son
by a second wife."
