Amongst the unpublished documents at Rydal Hall is a charter of circa 1180, by which Edgar (of Dunbar) and his wife Alice, daughter of Ivo de Greystoke, settled upon Agnes their daughter, in free marriage with Anselm, son of Michael de Furness, half their land of "Euenwit (Yanwath), Westmorland (Rydal MSS.). By an earlier charter of 1156-62, Walter, son of Ivo de Greystoke confirmed to Alice his sister on her marriage to Edgar son of Earl Gospatric, "Euenwit" and "Chonoc Salchild" (Knock Salcock), co. WEstmorland, as well as oher property in Cumberland, Durham and Yorkshire [Newminster Chartulary, Surtees Soc. p. 117]. Alice was the sister of Walter and daughter of Ivo, lords of Greystoke in Cumberland; while her husband, Edgar, was the son of Gospatric II, Earl of Dunbar in Scotland, the great-great-nephew of the "gracious" King Duncan of Shakespeare's Macbeth.
