Henry, 3rd Earl of Huntingdon, (1114-1152) was a Prince of Scotland, of the House of Dunkeld, and an English peer. He was the son of King David I of Scotland and Maud, daughter of Waltheof, 1st Earl of Northumberland and Huntingdon, (beheaded 1075), by his spouse Judith of Normandy. It is said that Henry was named after his uncle, King Henry I of England. He had three sons, two of whom became King of Scotland, and a third whose descendants were to prove critical in the later days of the Scottish royal house. He also had three daughters.
Henry married Adeline or Ada, the daughter of William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey (d.1138), and Elizabeth, daughter of Hugh of Vermandois, The Great.
His eldest son became King of Scots as Malcolm IV in 1153. Henry's second son became king in 1165 on the death of his brother, reigning as William I. Both in their turn inherited the title of Earl of Huntingdon. His third son, David also became Earl of Huntingdon. It is from the 8th Earl that all Kings of Scotland after Margaret, Maid of Norway claim descent.
On Henry's death his title passed to his half-brother Simon of St Liz.

Betrayed by his wife and executed. Last of the Anglo-Saxon earls, remaining in England for a decade after the Norman conquest. "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."
Was only ten when his father was killed, position of Earl went to Tosnig.
Waltheof, was the younger son of Earl Siward of Northumbria. In 1065 he became Earl of Huntingdon. After the Battle of Hastings he submitted to William the Conqueror and he was allowed to keep his estates.
In 1072 Waltheof became Earl of Northumbria. William also arranged for him to marry his niece Judith. This strategy did not work and in 1075 he joined a revolt led by Ralph, Earl of Norfolk and Roger, Earl of Hereford. Waltheof was captured and was executed on 31st May 1076. Waltheof was the only prominent Englishman to be executed in William's reign.

He was a son of Earl Siward of Northumbria, and, although he was probably educated for a monastic life, became Earl of Huntingdon and Earl of Northumberland about 1065. After the Battle of Hastings he submitted to William the Conqueror; but when Sweyn II of Denmark invaded Northern England in 1069 he joined him with Edgar Ætheling and took part in the attack on York, only, however, to make a fresh submission after their departure in 1070. Then, restored to his earldom, he married William's niece, Judith, and in 1072 was appointed Earl of Northampton.
Domesday Book (made by order of King William and finally completed in 1086) mentions Waltheof ("Walleff"); "'In Hallam ("Halun"), one manor with its sixteen hamlets, there are twenty-nine carucates [~14 km²] to be taxed. There Earl Waltheof had an "Aula" [hall or court]. There may have been about twenty ploughs. This land Roger de Busli holds of the Countess Judith." (Hallam, or Hallamshire, is now part of the city of Sheffield, in the county of South Yorkshire).

In 1075 Waltheof joined the conspiracy against the king arranged by the earls of Norfolk and Hereford; but soon repenting of his action he confessed his guilt to Archbishop Lanfranc, and then to William, who was in Normandy. Returning to England with William he was arrested, and after being brought twice before the king's court was sentenced to death. On the 31st of May 1076 he was beheaded on St. Giles's Hill, near Winchester. Weak and unreliable in character, Waltheof, like his father, is said to have been a man of immense bodily strength. Devout and charitable, he was regarded by the English as a martyr, and miracles were said to have been worked at his tomb at Crowland.
He was married 1070 with Judith of Lens, daughter of Lambert II, Count of Lens and Adeliza, Countess of Aumale and had three daughters, the eldest of whom, Matilda, brought the earldom of Huntingdon to her second husband, David I of Scotland. One of Waltheof's grandsons was Waltheof (d. 1159), abbot of Melrose. His creation of the earldom of Northampton, however, died with him, and he would remain the last to hold a Saxon-era title until the Earl of Wessex nearly a thousand years later.
