Walter de Burgh of Connaught Earl of Ulster 
Walter de Burgh of Connaught was born about 1230.1 Walter de Burgh of Connaught's father was Richard de Burgh the Great Lord Connacht and his mother was Egidia de Lacy. His paternal grandparents were William de Burgh Lord Connacht and Mor O'Brien; his maternal grandparents were Walter de Lacy Lord Palatine of Meath and Margaret de Braose. He had a sister named Margery. He died on July 28th, 1271.1 General Notes
[large-G675.FTW]
Not known for sure if his spouse was Maud de Lacy daughter of Hugh de Lacy, or if it was Avelina FitzJohn. I chose Maud as the mother, etc. because it would explain how Walter & his son became the earls of Ulster.

I don't know whether this will help clarify or confuse, but the parents of
the Walter de Burgh you mention (1230-1271) were Richard de Burgh, L of
Connaught (d.1242) and EGIDA, dau. of Walter de Lacy, Lord Paletine of
Meath (1172-1241) and MARGARET, dau. of WILLIAM DE BRAOSE (1177-1200) and
Maud de St. Valerie, Lady of la Haie.
