Web Notes notes for Waltheof 1st Earl Of Huntingdon
Weis' "Ancestral Roots" (98A:25) verifies he and JUDITH were the parents of ALICE. (148:23) verifies he and JUDITH were the parents of MAUD. Also mentioned (130:25). He was Earl of Huntingdon, Northampton, & Northumberland. He was beheaded at Winchester 31 May 1076.
Cockayne's "Complete Peerage" (RALPH DE TEONI IV) agrees that he and JUDITH were ALICE's parents.

"In the Spring and Summer of 1075, the Earls of Norfolk [RALPH DE GAEL and Hereford [Roger*, son of WILLIAM FITZOSBERN] were conspiring to seize England for themselves, and they enticed Waltheof to join in. He quickly changed his mind, and reconciled with the King [WILLIAM THE CONQUERER], who treated the matter lightly, but at Christmas 1075, Waltheof was brought to trial, his wife (THE KING's niece) being a witness against him. When the trial resumed in May, Waltheof was found guilty and beheaded on St. Giles's Hill on 31 May 1076. Waltheof and JUDITH had no sons and two known daughters, (1) MAUD, who married first SIMON DE SAINT LIZ (Senlis) and second DAVID I KING OF SCOTS, and (2) JUDITH OR ALICE, who married RALPH DE TONI the younger. There may have been a third daughter who married a Robert son of Richard, 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 are listed in note (f) on page 639."
