“HENRY OF SCOTLAND, 2nd but eldest surviving son and heir apparent, born about 1114. In 1136 he succeeded his father King David as Earl of Huntingdon. About 1136 he granted 20s. annually from his mill of Huntingdon to the church of St. Neots, Cambridgeshire. About 1136 he confirmed a grant of 40s from the rent of Huntingdon to the monks of St. Andrew's, Northampton. About 1136 he confirmed the rights of the church of St. Andrew's, Northampton. During the wars between his father and King Stephen of England, he fought on the Scottish side at the Battle of the Standard in 1138. On peace being made in 1139, he received the earldom of Northumberland, the cities of Newcastle and Bamborough being excepted. He married in 1139 ADA DE WARENNE, daughter of William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey, by Isabel (or Elizabeth), daughter of Hugh le Grand, Count of Crepy [see VERMANDOIS 5 for her ancestry]. They had three sons, Malcolm (IV) [King of Scots, Earl of Huntingdon], William the Lion [King of Scots, Earl of Huntingdon], and David [Earl of Huntingdon], and four daughters, Maud, Margaret (or Margery), Ada, and ___. He subsequently became a favorite of King Stephen, remaining with him in England for some time. About 1139 he granted the monks of Wetheral freedom from toll. About 1140 he granted protection of the possessions of the monks of Durham. About 1141 he granted a fishing in the Tyne and a ploughgate of land to the monks of St. Cuthbert. About 1141 he granted Clerchetune to the church of St. Mary of Haddington. In 1150 he founded the Abbey of Holmecultram in Cumberland. At an unknown date, he gave Ughtred of London 140 acres in the 'hanger' of Tottenham, Middlesex, together with half of a water-meadow which Ingram, chancellor of Scotland and bishop of Glasgow, had held, the right to take four tree-trunks a year, and pannage for ten pigs. At an unknown date, he granted Brinkburn Priory a saltpan in Warkworth, Northumberland. HENRY OF SCOTLAND, Earl of Northumberland, died 12 June 1152, and was buried at Kelso Abbey, Roxburghshire. In 1152-3 his widow, Ada, granted a toft in Haddington to Dunfermline Abbey, Fife, for the soul of Earl Henry and others. Sometime in the period, 1153-9, she founded a Cistercian nunnery at Haddington. Sometime in the period, 1153-66, she granted one full toft in her burgh at Haddington to St. Andrews Cathedral Priory for the soul of Earl Henry and others. Sometime in the period, 1153-71, she granted one full toft in her burgh of Crail and half a carucate of land in Pitcorthie to Cambuskenneth Abbey. Sometime in the period, 1153-72, she granted one silver merk annually in Pitmilly to St. Andrews Cathedral Priory for the soul of Earl Henry, for building the new church and for lighting. Ada, Countess of Northumberland, lady of Crail and Haddington, died in 1178.

Children of Henry of Scotland, by Ada de Warenne:
i. MALCOLM IV (also known as MALCOLM DE WARENNE), King of Scots, 1153-65, Earl of Huntingdon, 1157-65, son and heir, born 20 March 1141-2. He succeeded his grandfather, King David I, as King of Scots in 1153. He ceded Northumberland, Cumberland, and Westmorland to King Henry II of England in 1157, in exchange for the earldom of Huntingdon. Sometime in the period, 1157-65, he confirmed to Brinkburn Priory the earlier grants of his father and Roger Bertram. He went to France with King Henry II in 1159, and was present at the Siege of Toulouse. He was knighted by King Henry II at Tours in 1159/60. He founded the Abbey of Coupar Angus in 1161, and the Hospital of St. Margaret at Huntingdon in or before 1165. KING MALCOLM IV died unmarried at Jedburgh 9 Dec. 1165, and was buried in the church of the Holy Trinity at Dunfermline, Fife.

ii. WILLIAM the Lion, King of Scots, Earl of Huntingdon [see next].
iii. DAVID OF SCOTLAND, Earl of Huntingdon, married MAUD OF CHESTER [see HUNTINGDON 5].
iv. MAUD OF SCOTLAND. According to the chronicler, John of Hexham, it was agreed at Carlisle in 1150 that a son of Ranulph, Earl of Chester, should marry one of the daughters of Henry, son of the king of Scotland. The projected marriage never took place. The daughter in question was possibly Maud, who died unmarried in 1152.

“MAUD OF NORTHUMBERLAND, daughter and co-heiress, born about 1072 (aged 18 in 1090). She married (1st) in or before 1090 SIMON DE SENLIS, in right of his wife, Earl of Huntingdon and Northampton, and, lord of Conington, Huntingdonshire, Tottenham, Middlesex, Fotheringay, Northamptonshire, etc. They had two sons, Simon [Earl of Northampton] and [Saint] Waltheof [Prior of Kirkham, Abbot of Melrose], and one daughter, Maud. By an unknown mistress, he had an illegitimate son, Simon. He went on crusade in 1095. In 1098 he was captured during the Vexin campaign of King William Rufus in 1098, and was subsequently ransomed. He witnessed King Henry I's charter of liberties issued at his coronation in 1100. He attested royal charters in England from 1100-3, 1106-7, and 1109-11. Sometime in the period, 1093-1100, he and his wife, Maud, founded the Priory of St. Andrew's, Northampton. He reportedly built the first castle at Northampton. He witnessed a grant of King Henry I to Bath Abbey 8 August 1111 at Bishop's Waltham, as the king was crossing to Normandy. Simon and his wife, Maud, gave the tithe of Tottenham, Middlesex to the monks of St. Andrew's, Northampton. SIMON DE SENLIS, Earl of Huntingdon and Northampton, subsequently went abroad and died at La Charité-sur-Loire, and was buried there in the new priory church. The date of his death is uncertain. His widow, Maud, married (2nd) before Midsummer 1113 DAVID I, King of Scots [see SCOTLAND 2], 6th and youngest son of Malcolm III Canmore, King of Scots, by his 2nd wife, Margaret [see SCOTLAND I for his ancestry]. He was probably born about 1085. They had two sons, Malcolm and Henry [Earl of Northumberland], and two daughters, Clarisse and Hodierne. David was recognized as Earl of Huntingdon to the exclusion of his step-son, Simon; the earldom of Northampton reverted to the crown. As Earl of Huntingdon, he made various grants to St. Andrew's, Northampton. In 1113 he founded an abbey at Selkirk, afterwards removed to Kelso, and gave it land at Hardingstone and Northampton. He founded another abbey at Jedworth in 1118. He succeeded, his brother, Alexander I, as King of Scotland 25 April 1124. In 1127 he joined in the Barons' recognition of Empress Maud to succeed her father on the throne of England. When Stephen seized the crown, David took arms against him. His wife, Queen Maud, died 1130 or 1131, and was buried at Scone. About 1132 he gave the church of Tottenham, Middlesex to the canons of the church of Holy Trinity, London. In 1136 King David I resigned the earldom of Huntingdon to his son, Henry, who did homage to Stephen. David was defeated at the Battle of Standard 22 August 1138. DAVID I, King of Scots, died at Carlisle 24 May 1153, and was buried at Dunfermline, Fife.

This earldom came to King David by right of his wife, Maud daughter of Earl Waltheof, but he was her second husband and his claim was disputed by Simon de Senlis II who was Maud's son by her first marriage. Stephen was predisposed towards Simon (who supported him loyally) but anxious not to make an enemy of King David if he could help it, and he seems to have aimed at a compromise whereby Northampton would be detached from the earldom of Huntingdon and made a separate earldom for Simon. So far as Huntingdon was concerned, he granted it to King David's son Henry at the Treaty of Durham (5 February 1136). Henry presumably forfeited it during the Scottish war of 1138, but held it again from the second Treaty of Durham (9 April 1139) till the end of 1141, when he finally lost it. It was subsequently held by Simon de Senlis II together with Northampton (G.W.S. Barrow, in Regesta Regum Scottorum i. 102).").

Simon as the son-in-law of Waltheof had a hereditary claim to the earldom, though not to the town ... It has been doubted whether Simon received the earldom before Henry l's time (Farrer, Honors and Knights' Fees, ii. 296), but he attests a charter of the previous reign as earl (Davis, op. cit., no. 315) and was already earl at Henry's coronation. There is some evidence that Henry I granted the earldom of Northampton as well as that of Huntingdon to David of Scotland, the husband of Simon's widow, but he kept the lordship of the town in his own hands and it was being farmed from the Crown in 1130.).

3. “Royal Ancestry: A Study in Colonial & Medieval Families,” Douglas Richardson (2013):
“ISABEL (or ELIZABETH) DE VERMANDOIS, married (1st) in early 1096 ROBERT OF MEULAN (or DE BEAUMONT), Knt.,* Count of Meulan, seigneur of Beaumont, Pont-Audemer, Brionne, and Vatteville (all in Normandy), son and heir of Roger de Beaumont, seigneur of Pont Audemer, Brionne, la Haye-Aubrée, Sahuz, Tourville, Vieilles, etc., chatelain of Beaumont-le-Roger, by Adeline (or Aline), daughter of Waleran (or Galeran) [I], Count of Meulan. He was born about 1046. They had three sons, Waleran (or Galeran) [II] [Count of Meulan, Earl of Worcester], Robert, Knt. [1st Earl of Leicester], and Hugh [said to be Earl of Bedford], and five daughters, including Adeline (wife of Hugues IV, seigneur of Montfort-sur-Risle), Aubrey (wife of Hugues II, seigneur of Châteauneuf), Maud, and Isabel (or Elizabeth). When he was very young, he accompanied William, Duke of Normandy [future King William], to England and distinguished himself at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. He subsequently received large grants of land in Warwickshire, with smaller holdings in Leicestershire, Northamptonshire, and Wiltshire. Sometime in the period, 1066-77, Robert and his father, Roger, attested a royal confirmation for St.-Etienne, Caen. As "Robert de Beaumont," he witnessed a charter of Eudes, Bishop of Bayeux [half-brother of King William the Conqueror] dated probably in 1079. In 1080 he and his father were present at the king's court in Normandy. Robert became Count of Meulan about autumn 1080, following the death of his maternal uncle, Hugues II, Count of Meulan. As "Robert, Count of Meulan," he attested a charter of King Philippe I of France dated 6 Jan. 1082 following the Christmas court of King Philippe I in 1081. He was back at the Norman ducal court on 5 Sept. 1082, where he joined his father and brother as witnesses to a suit adjudicated in the presence of King William the Conqueror. About 1088 he quarreled with Duke Robert of Normandy about the castellanship of Brionne, in consequence of the exchange of Brionne for Ivry made by his father. He was present at the ducal court in 1087, 1088, 1089, 1091, and on three further occasions during the early 1090s. In 1097, when King William Rufus invaded France, he admitted him to his castle of Meulan. He was present at the king's death in 1100. On the accession of King Henry I, he supported Henry in the general rising which followed and became his trusted counsellor. On the death of Ives de Grandmesnil on Crusade, he retained his estates, which Ives had mortgaged to him about 1102. Thereby he acquired one-quarter of the town of Leicester, the whole of which was later granted to him by the king. After obtaining the whole town of Leicester, he is said to have become Earl of Leicester, but being already Count of Meulan, he was never so styled. In 1103 he was dispatched by King Henry on a mission to Normandy. The same year he betrothed his infant daughter to Amaury, youngest son of Simon de Montfort, as part of a treaty to end conflicts amongst the "warlike marchers." In 1104 he was one of the Norman barons who adhered to King Henry on his arrival in Normandy. He was present in the king's army at the Battle of Tenchebrai in 1106. In 1110 he was besieged at Meulan by King Louis VI, who took the castle by storm. In the following year he retaliated by a raid on Paris, which he plundered. In 1112 he gave the manor of Chisenbury, Wiltshire for the kitchen of the monks of Bec Abbey. ROBERT OF MEULAN, Count of Meulan, died 5 June 1118, and was buried in the chapter-house of the Abbey of St.-Pierre, Preaux. His widow, Isabel, married (2nd) WILLIAM DE WARENNE, 2nd Earl of Surrey (usually styled Earl of Warenne), son and heir of William de Warenne, 1st Earl of Surrey, by his 1st wife, Gundred, sister of Gerbod the Fleming, Earl of Chester. They had three sons, William [3rd Earl of Surrey], Ralph, and Reynold, and two daughters, Ada and Gundred. In 1090 he was among those fighting in Normandy against Robert de Belleme who was supported by Duke Robert. He witnessed three charters of the king at Windsor in Sept. 1101. In autumn 1101 he accompanied Duke Robert to Normandy, supporting him against the king, and was deprived of his inheritance in England. In 1103, however, as a result of the duke's intercession, he was restored to the earldom of Surrey by the king. In 1106 he accompanied the king to Normandy, and commanded a division of his army at the Battle of Tinchebrai. In 1109 he was present at a council held at Nottingham. In 1110 he was with the king at Dover, becoming a surety for the performance of the treaty with Robert, Count of Flanders. In 1111 he was one of the optimates who acted in a judicial capacity in a plea in Normandy; about that time he was given the castle of Saint-Saens by the king, which had been forfeited by Elias de Saint-Saens. In 1119 he commanded a division at the Battle of Brémule. In 1131 he was present a the council at Northampton. He was one of the earls present at the death of King Henry I 1 Dec. 1135. The same month he was given the administration of the region of Rouen and the pays de Caux. He was present at the court of King Stephen at Easter 1136. William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey, died 11 May 1138, and was buried at his father's feet in the chapter-house at Lewes, Sussex. His widow, Isabel, was living c.1138. She died 13 (or 17) February, sometime before June 1147, when her son, William de Warenne, 3rd Earl of Surrey, left on crusade.
(* The latest datable document that Robert attests as "Robert de Beaumont" is a charter of King William the Conqueror for Lessay dated 14 July 1080. Robert acquired the county of Meulan shortly thereafter and thenceforth always attested with his comital title [see Vaughn Anselm of Bec & Robert of Meulan (1987): 88]. There is no evidence that either Robert or his male descendants used the name "de Beaumont" after the year 1082, when Robert first occurs as Robert, Count of Meulan.)
