Waltheof of Allerdale was an 11th- and 12th-century Anglo-Saxon noble, lord of 
Allerdale in modern Cumbria. Brother of Dolfin of Carlisle and Gospatric of Dunbar, 
Waltheof was son of Gospatric, Earl of Northumbria.[1] Both Waltheof and his brother 
Gospatric witness Earl David's Glasgow Inquest 1113 x 1124, and Waltheof also 
attests some of David's charters as king of the Scots later.[1] The account of 
Waltheof and his family in Cumbrian monastic cartularies (St Bees and Wetheral), says 
that he gave land in Allerdale to his three sisters, Octreda, Gunhilda and Maud.[1]

Waltheof had two sons and several daughters.[2] Alan (fl. 1139), succeeded to 
Allerdale.[3] The other son was named Gopspatric.[4] An Octreda, either his sister or 
daughter, appears to have married Donnchad mac Maíl Coluim and become mother of 
William fitz Duncan, mormaer of Moray.[5] William fitz Duncan appears to have 
inherited Waltheof's Allerdale territory from his mother.[6] A definite daughter, 
Ethelreda, married Ranulf de Lindsay and then William de Esseville.[7] Another, 
Gunnilda, married Uhtred of Galloway.[3] Waltheof's partner appears to have been a 
woman named Sigrid or Sigarith.[3]

He seems to have become abbot of Crowland late in his life, but this Waltheof may be 
someone else.[8] The abbot of Crowland in question was a monk of Crowland Abbey 
before becoming abbot in 1125.[9] Abbot Waltheof was deposed by Papal legate 
Alberic of Ostia at the Council of Westminster.[10]
