    Uhtred of Tyndale is said to have married Princess Bethoc, daughter of King Donald III of Scotland. Is there any contemporary evidence to suggest that he was the son of Waltheof II of Northumberland and wife Judith? If Uhtred was the
    son of Waltheof, then why did he not inherit his father's titles? Waltheof had
    several daughters who married notable figures of the times (namely Simon St. Liz, Robert Fitz Richard de Clare, and King Edgar). Moreover, Uhtred is said to
    have been the progenitor of the families of Johnston of Annandale and his daughter, Hextilda, is said to have married Richard Comyn. Any real information
    pertaining to the life of Uhtred of Tyndale would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,

    Not so. Uchtred inherited Tynedale from his father Waltheof of Tynedale. It was Earl Waltheof, a different person, who was executed for treason.
