  1st Baron Butler
  Theobald Walter, the eldest son, attended King Henry II into France when that Prince came to an agreement with the French King on the behalf of Thomas a' Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, who was murdered 28 December, 1171. The next year he accompanied the King into Ireland, where he served in the reduction of the kingdom, and being rewarded with large possessions, made it his place of residence, having also conferred upon him the Butlership of Ireland in the year 1177, whereby he and his successors were to attend the Kings of England at their Coronation, and that day present him with the first cup of wine, for which they were to have certain pieces of the King's plate. In 1185 he was witness to a charter of King John, then Earl of Moreton. In 1st of Richard I, 1189, he accepted the pipe-roll 72œ 6s 8d of the scutage of the Knights of the Honour of Lancaster. He was a person of large possessions in England and Ireland, being a Baron in both kingdoms. He founded and endowed many religious places. He died 1206 and was buried in a tomb made for him in Wotheney Abbey. He married Maud. daughter and heir to Robert de Vavasour, a great Baron of Yorkshire (with whom he had the Manors of Edlington and Newborough and the lands of Bolton) and by her, who afterwards married Fulk FitzWarin (from whom John Whitney descends), had one son, Theobald, and a daughter, Beatrice.
