ALIA Waltheof II of Huntington /Earl of Northumbria/
_FA1 PLAC Acceded: 1065. 1st Earl of Huntington.
_FA2 PLAC Also Earl of Northampton & Northumberland. Interred: Crowland.
_FA3 PLAC Plotted a rebellion against William the Conqueror, promised help from abroad.
_FA4 PLAC Considered the last English hero to defy the Normans.
_FA5 PLAC Known as Waltheof the Elder.
_FA6 PLAC Interred: Crowland.In the Spring and Summer of 1075, the Earls of Norfolk and Heref ord were conspiring to seize England for themselves, and they enticed Waltheof to join in . He quickly changed his mind, and reconciled with the King, who treated the matter lightly , but at Christmas 1075, Waltheof was brought to trial, his wife (the King's niece) being a w itness against him. When the trial resumed in May Waltheof was found guilty and beheaded o n St. Giles's Hill (I suppose this is in Winchester, which is where he was tried) on 31 May 1 076.
Waltheof and Judith had no sons and two known daughters, (1) Maud, who married first Simon d e Saint Liz (Senlis) and second David I King of Scots, and (2) Judith or Alice, who married R alph de Toni the younger. There may have been a third daughter who married a Robert son of R ichard, but this may be a confusion with a daughter of Maud and Simon.
See the second edition of Cokayne's *Complete Peerage*, vol. VI, pp. 638-640. The children a re listed in note (f) on page 639.
