https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uhtred_of_Galloway
Uchtred mac Fergusa (c. 1120 – September 22, 1174) was Lord of Galloway from 1161 
to 1174, ruling jointly with his half-brother Gille Brigte (Gilbert). They were sons of 
Fergus of Galloway; their mothers' names are unknown, but Uchtred may have been 
born to one of the many illegitimate daughters of Henry I of England.

As a boy he was sent as a hostage to the court of King Malcolm IV of Scotland. When 
his father, Prince Fergus, died in 1161, Uchtred was made co-ruler of Galloway along 
with Gilla Brigte. They participated in the disastrous invasion of Northumberland under 
William I of Scotland in 1174. King William was captured, and the Galwegians 
rebelled, taking the opportunity to slaughter the Normans and English in their land. 
During this time Uchtred was brutally mutilated, blinded, castrated, and killed by his 
brother Gille Brigte and Gille Brigte's son, Máel Coluim. Gille Brigte then seized control 
of Galloway entire.

Uchtred had married Gunhilda of Dunbar, daughter of Waltheof of Allerdale and they 
were the parents of Lochlann and Eve of Galloway, wife of Walter de Berkeley.
