• Life Sketch: with note: Description: Geffrey Clint - enfeoffed RICHARD Walsh/ Waleys of manor of Wormleigh, Warwickshire,England RICHARD WALLENSE was born in 1143 in Ayr, Clackmannanshire, Scotland. He died in 1204 in Riccarton, Ayrshire, Scotland. He married HODIERNE DELUCERNE in 1169 in Ayr, Clackmannanshire, Scotland. She was born in 1150 in Wormleighton, Warwickshire, England. She died on 05 Jan 1215 in Ayrshire, Scotland. ------------------------------------------------------------ First heard of when he signed his name to a charter in 1165. He seems to have had a great deal of possessions around Riccarton and also he obtained from the High Stewart of Scotland, a part of the district west of Ayr. In 1175 Richard's name appears again in the records when he signed deeds, charters, wills, etc., and in each case he signed his name "Richard Wallense". From his will made in 1192, we learn that his wife's name was Janet and that he had two sons, Philip and Richard II. https://www.clanmacfarlanegenealogy.info/genealogy/TNGWebsite/getperson.php?personID=I42587&tree=CC ------------------------------------------------------------ Son of Eimerus Galeius. Mitchell says that when David I set himself to complete the anglicizing of Scotland in Church and State he called a crowd of Southrons to aid him. "Among them a Norman Knight, Walter Fitz Alan, rode north from Oswestry on the Welsh border. In his train rode one Welshman, Richard by name. The Norman Knight was under obligations to his Welsh neighbour, and no doubt looked to clear off the score in Scotland." Richard, the Welshman, was a witness to the charter of the Abbacy of Paisley, 1160-3. Mitchell says, "The signature is Richard Wal," an abbreviation for Wallys or Walays. The name appears in many slightly different shapes -- Wal, Walays, Walais, Waleis, Waleys, Walois, Walleyis, Wallayis, Walles, Walas, Wallas, Waless, Wallaise, Walace, Waleng, Walens, Walans, Walense, Wallensis, and the Guardian himself as Guillaume le Galeys. These have been replace by "Wallace" (in Ireland spelled "Wallis"), and by the rarer Scotch form of "Vallance." They all mean the same thing, and tell us that the Wallaces were of the original Celtic people of the island.

  === Life Sketch ===
  This Richard Wallace obtained lands on the northern verge of Kyle Stewart, which after himself were styled Richardtoun, and afterwards Riccarton. The parish of Riccarton, which still exists, embraces an area from east to west of eight, and from north to south of three miles. At the parish church the hamlet of Riccarton
  borders the hillock of Yardside, where stood a small castle which formed the residence of the Wallace family. Richard Wallace had two sons, Philip and Richard. Philip de Wallace is witness to a charter whereby, about the years 1211-14, William the Lion confirms to the Abbey of Paisley various grants made by Walter the Steward.
