Walter was a Domesday Tenant of lands in Berks, Bucks, Middlesex, Harts and Surrey, and Keeper of the Great Forest (per Collins, "Royal Ancestors...," p. 103). "A Guide to Irish Roots," William & Mary Durning (La Mesa, CA: Irish Family Names Society), p. II-115, gives his wife as Gladys, daughter of Rhillallon ap Cynvyn. Gladys ancestry is shown in the unverified site http://cappyzeb.freeyellow.com/ancestors/pages/white/Gladys.html in 2003.

"In Domesday Walter FitzOther appears as a tenant-in-chief in a compact block of counties, Berks., Bucks., Middlesex, Surrey and Hants. He also held Winchfield in Hampshire under Chertsey Abbey. At first sight there is not much to connect him with Windsor or its forest, but investigation reveals the facts that at Windsor itself he held on the royal manor 1 3/4 hides and some woodland; that at Kintbury, another Berkshire manor, he held half a hide 'which King Edward had given to his predecessor' out of the royal demesne for the custody of the forest; that of the great royal manor of Woking in Surrey Walter held three-quarters of a hide, which King Edward had similarly given 'out of the manor to a certain forester,' and that in or near Kingston-on-Thames he had given land to a man whom he had 'entrusted the keeping of the king's brood mares'.

"These hints prepare us for the evidence to which we are about to come to that he held ' a wood called Bagshot' at the time of the Survey (though Domesday does not say so), and that he and his heirs had the keeping of the great forest of Windsor. He was also, we shall find, castellan of Windsor, while in his private capacity as a tenant-in-chief he held a barony reckoned at fifteen or twenty knights' fees and owing fifteen knights as castle guard to Windsor.

"Our next glimpse of him, after Domesday, is afforded by the Abingdon Cartulary, which records in a most interesting entry that Walter FitzOther, castellan of Windsor, restored to Abbot Faricius the woods of 'Virdele' and Bagshot, which he had held by consent of the abbot's predecessors, Aethelem and Rainald. It adds that he made this restoration in the first place at Windsor Castle, and that he afterwards sent his wife Beatrice with his son William to Abingdon that they might confirm what he himself had done 'at home'.

"From this entry we learn that Walter was living after 1100, for Abbot Faritius ruled the house 1100-16. We also learn that his wife's name was Beatrice,(9) and that his home was at Windsor Castle. Lastly we may see, I think, an allusion to the loss, for the time, of these woods in the Domesday entry of the abbey's manor of Winkfield ('Wenesfelle'), which mentions that '4 hides are in the king's forest' (fo. 59). In other words, Walter, I suspect, had added them to Windsor Forest as its custodian; and if he did this, as alleged, in the time of Abbot Aethelem (who died in 1084), they would be included in the king's forest at the time of the Domesday Survey (1086). Walter was succeeded by his son William, of whom we have already heard as accompanying his mother to Abingdon.

"A very interesting writ shows him in charge of Windsor Forest at a date not later than 1116.(10) This writ notifies to William FitzWalter, Croc the huntsman, Richard the serjeant, and all the officers of the forest of Windsor, that the king has granted to Abingdon Abbey the tithe of all venison(11)...The invaluable Pipe Roll of 1130 shows us William FitzWalter in charge of Windsor Forest in that and the preceding year....We again meet with William FitzWalter in that charter of the Empress Maud to Geoffrey de Mandeville which I assign to 1142,(12) She grants therein to Geoffrey that William may have his hereditary constableship of Windsor Castle and lands.

"William was succeeded by a son of the same name, to whom King Henry II., by a charter granted at Windsor 1154-64 confirmed the lands of his father. This charter, which proves the pedigree, is known to me only from Harleian Roll, P. 8, a pedigree of the Windsor family and of their Irish kinsmen, the FitzGeralds, which although compiled at a bad time (1582) is of quite exceptional value. The charter of which I speak confirms to William of Windsor all the land of his father, William Fitz Walter, and of his grandfather, Walter FitzOther. This William is constantly mentioned in the Pipe Rolls of Henry II. as among those who supervised building operations at Windsor Castle."

[51325] "The Ellsworth American [Ellsworth, Maine], 9 March 2015": "Machias - Wayne P. Torrey, 68, passed away unexpectedly on Feb. 27, 2015, surrounded by his family at Eastern Maine Medical Center. He is the son of Virginia and the late Ernest Torrey of Deblois. He worked in the woods with his father in his younger years, then a lumber mill, and in 1971 became a 10-wheeler and equipment operator with the state of Maine Department of Transportation. After 40 years of service with the state, he retired and went to work for Maine Wild Blueberry Co. in Machias. He was a quiet, but strong man, always hardworking, generous and compassionate. His family always came first and his grandchildren were very special to him. He is survived by his wife of 40 years, Catherine Torrey, his daughter, Susan and husband, Herb Smith, of Hancock, and their two children, Kaylee and Mason Smith; his mother, Virginia Torrey of Deblois, two brothers, Allan Torrey and Jerry Torrey; and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends."
