Sources
Everything on this page rests on one compiled work, the Complete Peerage (1st ed., vol. 6, 1895, p. 82, under Northumberland, with vol. 4, 1892, p. 282), which names her as the wife of Siward, the mother of Waltheof and a daughter of Aldred. It is a compilation, not a record, so the facts are worded as reports. No dates, birthplace or surname are given for her, and her mother is not named.
