                   on the history of the Earldom of Huntingdon:

His [Waltheof's] son-in-law Simon de St Liz was the next holder of theEarldom [of Huntingdon], the family connections of Simon's wife Maudmaking the transition a natural one under the terms prevailing then.Indeed the history of the Earldom over the next few decades amplyillustrates the almost chattel-like nature of such a title at this time,a quasi-hereditary post which was nevertheless as often as not held fromthe king at pleasure and which could be transferred between members ofthe same family like a parcel of land.

A Maud de St. Liz is mentioned as wife of Saier deQuincy, being father and mother of Saier, 1st Earl of Winchester.

Notes:
                   on the history of the Earldom of Huntingdon:

After Earl Simon's [Matilda's 1st husband] death, his Widow married DavidI of Scotland, who consequently became Earl of Huntingdon too, keepingthe Earldom even after he succeeded his brother as King of Scots.  Hesided with the Empress Maud against Stephen I but came to terms with thelatter and made the Earldom over to his son Henry.  Henry swore fealty toStephen but subsequently fought against him under the Scottish banner,which may account for Simon de St Liz's son, another Simon, beingrecognized as Earl of Huntingdon before Henry's death in 1152.
