This Walter, known as Walter Fitzalan, went to Scotland as one of the military aides of King David I: he was the second son of Alan Fitzflaad, a Norman chieftain who came into England with William, the conqueror, in 1066 and was given land in Shropshire. Walter died in 1246, and was succeeded by his eldest son, Alexander.
