  1131 First Marriage to Christiana
  William FitzAlan (1105-1160) first married Christiana, who was a niece of Robert FitzRoy Earl of Gloucester. As Orderic Vitalis records it, "William fitz Alan castellan and vicecomes of Shrewsbury" married "a niece of Robert Earl of Gloucester". [3] Burke reports that her name was Christian, she was possibly a niece of Robert FitzRoy, 1st Earl of Gloucester of the 1122 creation, and that Robert himself was an illegitimate son of Henry I. [5] Christiana, wife of William, along with William's brother Walter, witnessed the donation of the fishery to Houghton Abbey as noted above.
  For Tierney, the niece of Robert Earl of Gloucester was named Ellen rather than Christian, and she was the daughter of William Peverel. William Fitzalan thereby obtained with her a large accession of Property in Brittany. (Orderic, 917). [6]
  No date has been attached to his first marriage. If, as noted above, his birth occurred around 1110, and he married at age 21, his marriage year would have been 1131.
