==================================================

FAIRBAIRN Genealogy
URL: http://home.austarnet.com.au/dfgoonan/FAIRBAIRNpg.htm

Fairbairn was supposed to derive from Fair (white, pale, handsome) and bairn (child), but this seems unlikely as surnames weren't granted to children.

Another more likely theory has the surname derive from a Viking Prince named Siward “the Fair” BEORN (bear). He was also known as Siward Fairbairn “of the Strong Arm”. His father was Siward "Digira" whose father was Hringo, King of Upland who was also known as Earl Beorn (bear). The tales about Siward and his father were called “Fay Bairn” (fairy bear) and relate to Nordic legends.

Siward "Digira" lived in England from about 995 until his death in 1056. King Edward “the Confessor” conferred the title of Earl of Northumbria (Northumberland) on the giant man.

An enduring story tells of Siward’s encounter with Tostig, Earl of Huntington. Tostig apparently insulted Siward by throwing dirt on him when they met on a bridge. Siward had just left a meeting with King Edward and took no offence. They met again on the same bridge and this time Siward decapitated Tostig and carried his head to King Edward. Edward was so impressed that he awarded Siward the Earldom of Huntington in addition to Northumbria. (If Siward killed Tostig prior to 1056, then it would discredit sources that say that Tostig was defeated by his brother Harold at the Battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066.)

Siward’s sister married Duncan, King of Scots. Siward’s eldest son was Osberne “Bulax” who was killed in battle with “Macbeth” on 27th July 1054. Osberne was said to have married the daughter of Lady Godiva. Siward’s second son Waltheof married Juditha, a niece of William “the Conqueror” who helped Waltheof regain the title of Earl of Northumbria in 1069. Their friendship didn’t last long though as King William had Waltheof beheaded outside Westminster in 1076.

Osberne “Bulax” had two sons named Siward Barn “the Red” and Siward Barn “the White” (Fairbarn). Siward “the White” became a refugee and fled to Scotland with Edgar “the Atheling” where he was greeted kindly by his cousin Malcolm III, King of Scots. Siward and Malcolm III set about driving the Normans out of Northumbria. During battle Malcolm III had his horse killed under him and was partially crippled. Siward Fairbairn fought his way to the armoured King, took him under his arm and fought his way to safety. For this bravery he was knighted Sir Armstrange and given lands and a castle on the Scottish border. It is from this Siward Fairbairn that the Armstrongs of Mangerton claim decent.
Waltheof married, in 1070, Judith, daughter of Lambert, COUNT OF LENS, by Adelaide or Adeliz, sister of the Conqueror. He died as aforesaid, 31 May 1076, and a fortnight later the Abbot Ulfketel, at Judith's request and by the King's permission, removed his body to Crowland, where it was honourably entombed.(g) His widow, who as "Judith the Countess" is recorded in Domesday Book to have held estates in many counties in 1086, most of them apparently gifts from the King, her uncle, held Huntingdon in dower. She founded the Nunnery of Elstow, near Bedford. [Complete Peerage VI:638-40, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
After the execution of Waltheof, Earl of Huntingdon, King William offered Judith, his niece, the deceased earl's widow, in marriage to Simon St. Liz, a noble Norman, but the lady peremptorily rejected the alliance, owing, Dugdale says, to St. Liz's halting in one leg, which refusal so displeased the Conqueror that he immediately seized upon the castle and honour of Huntingdon, which the countess held in dower, exposing herself and her dau. to a state of privation and obscurity in the Isle of Ely and other places, while he bestowed upon the said Simon St. Liz the town of Northampton and the whole hundred of Falkeley, then valued at £40 per annum, to provide shoes for his horses. St. Liz thus disappointed in obtaining the hand of the Countess of Huntingdon, made his addresses with greater success to her elder dau., the Lady Maud, who became his wife, when William conferred upon the said Simon de St. Liz, the Earldoms of Huntingdon and Northampton. [Sir Bernard Burke, Dormant, Abeyant, Forfeited, and Extinct Peerages, Burke's Peerage, Ltd., London, 1883, p. 467-8, St. Liz, Earls of Huntingdon]
The parentage of Judith of Lens has come under critical study since the early 1970's, when Enguerrand II was thought by some to be her father. The currently acceptable parentage among most scholars is as stated, i.e., Lambert of Boulogne. [Roderick W. Stuart, Royalty for Commoners, 3rd ed., Genealogical Publishing Company, Baltimore MD, 1998]
Niece of William the Conqueror. Countess Judith (between 1054 and 1055, ? after 1086), was a niece of William the Conqueror (Born Normandy). She was a daughter of his half-sister Adeliza, Countess of Aumale and Lambert II, Count of Lens. She later became the widow of Earl Waltheof of Huntingdon and Northumbria, whom she betrayed to her uncle and who was executed as a result at Winchester. Judith founded Hitchin church.

{geni:about_me} ==Judith of Lens==
From [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judith_of_Lens Wikipedia]

'''Countess Judith''' (born in [[Normandy]] between 1054 and 1055, died after 1086), was a niece of [[William I of England|William the Conqueror]]. She was a daughter of his sister [[Adelaide of Normandy]], Countess of Aumale and [[Lambert II, Count of Lens]].

In 1070, Judith married Earl [[Waltheof, 1st Earl of Northampton|Waltheof of Huntingdon and Northumbria]]. They had three children, the eldest daughter, [[Maud, 2nd Countess of Huntingdon|Maud]], brought the earldom of Huntingdon to her second husband, [[David I of Scotland]].

In 1075, Waltheof joined the [[Revolt of the Earls]] against William. It was the last serious act of resistance against the [[Norman conquest of England]]. Judith betrayed Waltheof to her uncle, who had Waltheof beheaded on 31 May 1076.

After Waltheof's execution Judith was betrothed by William to [[Simon I of St. Liz, 1st Earl of Northampton]]. Judith refused to marry Simon and she fled the country to avoid William's anger. He then temporarily confiscated all of Judith's English estates.

Judith founded the [[Abbey]] at [[Elstow]] [[Bedfordshire]] in about 1078. She also founded churches at [[Kempston]] and [[Hitchin]].

She had land-holdings in 10 counties in the [[English Midlands|Midlands]] and [[East Anglia]]. Her holdings included land at:

From Medieval Lands database:

JUDITH (1054-after 1086). JUDITH de Lens, daughter of LAMBERT de Boulogne Comte de Lens & his wife Adelais de Normandie (1054-after 1086).

Her marriage is recorded by Orderic Vitalis who calls her the king's "consobrina"[461]. A manuscript records that “Juditha comitissa…uxor Waldevi comitis Huntingdon, et neptis Gulielmi Conquestoris” founded Elstow priory[462].

Her parentage is further clarified by the foundation charter of Saint-Martin d´Auchy narrates the church´s foundation by “Guerinfrido qui condidit castellum…Albamarla” and names “Engueranni consulis qui filius fuit Berte supradicti Guerinfridi filie et Adelidis comitisse uxoris sue sororis…Willelmi Regis Anglorum” and “Addelidis comitissa supradicti Engueranni et supradicte Adelidis filia…Judita comitissa domine supradicte filia”[463].

The Vita et Passio Waldevi Comitis records that “Waldevus” married “rex Willelmus…neptem suam Juettam filiam comitis Lamberti de Lens, sororem…Stephani comitis de Albemarlia”[211]. A manuscript records that “Juditha comitissa…uxor Waldevi comitis Huntingdon, et neptis Gulielmi Conquestoris” founded Elstow priory[212]. Her marriage is recorded by Orderic Vitalis who calls her the king's "consobrina"[213]. Orderic Vitalis says Waltheof's marriage with Judith was arranged by King William "to strengthen the bonds of friendship" with her future husband[214]. She deposed against her husband when he was accused of involvement in the conspiracy of the Earls of Norfolk and Hereford in 1075[215].

=--------------------=

Judith was one of the accusers of her husband, the Earl Waltheof, in his treason against King William (Judith's uncle), but after his execution, she arranged for him to be honorably buried in 1076.

She was recorded in the Domesday book as "Judith the Countess" and to have held estates in many counties, most of them apparently gifts from the King, her uncle, and held Huntingdon in dower in 1086.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judith_of_Lens for considerably more information, including the Domesday Book accounting.

After the execution of Waltheof, Earl of Huntingdon, King William offered Judith, his niece, the deceased earl's widow, in marriage to Simon St. Liz, a noble Norman, but the lady peremptorily rejected the alliance, owing, Dugdale says, to St. Liz's halting in one leg, which refusal so displeased the Conqueror that he immediately seized upon the castle and honour of Huntingdon, which the countess held in dower, exposing herself and her dau. to a state of privation and obscurity in the Isle of Ely and other places, while he bestowed upon the said Simon St. Liz the town of Northampton and the whole hundred of Falkeley, then valued at Đ40 per annum, to provide shoes for his horses. St. Liz thus diappointed in obtaining the hand of the Countess of Huntingdon, made his addresses with greater success to her elder dau., the Lady Maud, who became his wife, when William conferred upon the said Simon de St. Liz, the Earldoms of Huntingdon and Northampton. [Sir Bernard Burke, Dormant, Abeyant, Forfeited, and Extinct Peerages, Burke's Peerage, Ltd., London, 1883, p. 467-8, St. Liz, Earls of Huntingdon]

NOTE: The parentage of Judith of Lens has come under critical study since the early 1970's, when Enguerrand II was thought by some to be her father. The currently acceptable parentage among most scholars is as stated, i.e., Lambert of Boulogne. [Roderick W. Stuart, Royalty for Commoners, 3rd ed., Genealogical Publishing Company, Baltimore MD, 1998]
