Notes - According to Andrew B. W. MacEwen (citation details below), it was Eva, first wife of Alan Fitz Walter, who was the mother of his children, not his second wife Alesta, daughter of Morggán, Earl of Mar.
Eva has been said to be a daughter of Swain, son of Thor, the latter having been the first recorded sheriff of Lothian. The truth of this is the subject of inconclusive controvery stretching back at least a century.
