  Marriage Notes:

"He (Alan) married between 1100 and 1105 Adelina, called also Avelina and Adeliza, daughter of Ernulph de Hesding, half-sister, and in her issue co-heir of Ernulph de Hesding the second, who, for his brave defence of Shrewsbury in 1138, was so mercilessly put to death by Stephen. The various fees in Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, and elsewhere, which formed the Domesday Barony of Ernulph de Hesding, were found in 1165 to be divided among coparceners, a third being vested in the representatives of Alan Fitz Flaald.

They had four sons"
