In this chapterPetyr Baelish

The founder of the house had come to the Vale of Arryn as a mercenary in the service of Lord Corbray. Over the years he earned his knighthood and took as his emblem the stone head of the Titan of Braavos, in honor of his father.

It was his son who became lord of a small tower in the Fingers. There, a generation later, his grandson Petyr Baelish would be born.
