If this is correct, Matilda must have been born not long before her father’s death as she gave birth to her last child after Oct 1198. It appears that William, son of William who died in 1168, would have been too young to have been Matilda’s father.

; Per POMS:
     “BIOGRAPHY: Gilbert was the son and heir of Ferteth, earl of Strathearn and inherited the earldom on his father's death in 1171; he had at least one brother, Malise. The family was Celtic in origin. He is found living between 1171 and 1223, and may have been born before 1164 and perhaps circa 1150. He married Matilda d'Aubigny, and in 1200, they founded a priory at Inchaffray, which was elevated to an abbey in 1220 or 1221. Gilbert and Matilda had at least seven sons, including the eldest, Gilchrist (d.1198 and buried at Inchaffray, at which site the priory would be built), William, Fergus, Robert, who succeeded in 1223 to the earldom, Ferteth, Malise and Gilbert, the youngest. Gilbert also had three daughters, Matilda (Maud), who married Malcolm, earl of Fife (d.c.1228), Cecilia, who married Walter, son of Alan (1204-41), whose descendants were to become earls of Gowrie, and Ethen, probably the first wife of David Hay of Errol. Gilbert died in 1223 (Handbook of British Chronology, 521; Neville, 'Earl Gilbert and the earldom of Strathearn', 75-90) http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/26650.

     "GILBERT of Strathearn, son of FERTETH Earl of Strathearn & his wife Ethen --- ([1150 or before]-1223). "…Comite Duncano, Gillebrid comite de Anegus, M. comite de Ethoel, Gillecrist comite de Meneteth, Gillberto filio comitis Ferteth, Merlefwano Adam filio comitis de Anegus…" witnessed the charter dated 1164 under which "Malcolmus rex Scottorum" confirmed the foundation of Scone abbey[673]. He succeeded his father as Earl of Strathearn. "…Gillebto comite de Stradtherin…" witnessed the undated charter, dated to after [1170], under which William King of Scotland confirmed the donation of "ecclesiam de Sconin" to St Andrew’s priory[674]. "…Dunec, Malcolmo filio eio, com. Gilleb, Eth filio com. de Leueñ…" witnessed the undated charter, dated to 1193, under which "Dunecanus filius Gillebti filii Fergi" donated "totam terram de Moybothelbeg…[et] de Bethoc" to Melrose abbey[675]. "Gilbertus comes de Stratheryn" donated property "apud Fowlis" to Inchaffray by charter dated to [1195], witnessed by "Matildis comitissa de Stratheryn, Gilbertus filius comitis Gilberti…"[676]. "Gilbertus comes de Strathern" donated "ecclesiam sancti Cathani de Aberruadeuien" to Inchaffray, for the souls of "pater meus Ferthet et mater mea Ethen", by charter dated to [1198], witnessed by "Malis fratre comitis, Gillecrist filio comitis…Dunecano filio Malisii, Maulde comitissa de Strathern…"[677]. "Gilebertus comes de Strathern" donated "ecclesiam de Madernin" to Inchaffray by charter dated to [1199], witnessed by "Malisio fratre meo, Mathilde comitissa, Willelmo et Ferthed et Roberto filiis meis…"[678]. The Extracta ex Cronicis Scocie records that "Gilbertus comes de Stratherne" divided his county in three equal parts, between the bishopric of Dunblane, the canons of Inchaffray, and keeping the third part for himself and his heirs[679]. "…Gilberto comite de Strathern…" subscribed the undated charter under which "Comes David frater regis Scottorum" founded Lindores Abbey[680]. A charter dated 1200 records the foundation of Inchaffray Abbey by "Gilbertus filius Ferthead…comes de Stradern et…Matilidis filia Willelmi de Aubengni comitissa", for the soul of "Gillecrist primogeniti nostri ibidem quiescentis", the dating clause of which refers to "ad obitu prenominati filii nostri Gillecrist anno secundo, obiit autem III Non Oct", witnessed by "…Robertus de Quinci, Seierus de Quinci, Malisius frater comitis, Willelmus, Ferthead et Robertus filii comitis…Dunecanus filius Malisii…"[681]. The prominent position accorded in the list of subscribers to this charter to the members of the Quincy family (see the document ENGLAND EARLS 1207-1466) suggests a close connection with the family of the earls of Strathearn, which has not yet been explained. "Rogerius de Quinci" confirmed donations of land "in territorio de Gasc", where the men of "domini patris mei comitis Wintonie" pastured animals, to Inchaffray Abbey by charter dated to [1220], witnessed by "Gilberto comite de Stratherne, Roberto et Fergus filiis suis…"[682]. "Ysenda sponsa comitis Gilleberti de Strathern" donated land "in villa mea de Abercharni", over which "…domino Ricardo milite et Galfrido de Gasc fratribus meis…" had rights of passage, by charter dated to [1221/23], confirmed by "comes dominus meus"[683]. "Robertus filius Gilberti comitis de Stratheryn" confirmed possessions of Inchaffray Abbey by charter dated to [1221/23][684]. These last two documents suggest that Earl Gilbert may have been incapacitated in some way towards the end of his life and handed control of affairs to his second wife and his son.
