The
earldom of Huntingdon became somewhat of a pawn of political negotiation
between the English and the Scots. After Simon's death it was taken by
David later King David 1 of Scots then his son Henry. After Henry's death,
the title reverted to Simon's son Simon. After his death it then went to
Henry's son Malcolm King of Scots then Malcolm's brother William King
of Scots then it returned to the third/last Simon de St. Liz. When that
Simon died, it went to David, son of William King of Scots then his son
John 'le Scot'. When John died without issue, the earldom became extinct. |

We
show her husbands to follow the cross-references in the sources on those
families. However, BE1883 St. Liz, whilst reporting them, does report
some uncertainty. We also note that there was mention in BE1883 that
Robert FitzRichard had married Maud's aunt Judith
of Huntingdon as well as or instead of Maud. TCP Winchester confirms
that Maud married Robert FitzRichard before Saier de Quincy but does not
mention the marriage to William de Albini. |
