Roger le Poer

Last updated
  1. Sometimes Roger Pauper [1] or Roger Poer [2]
  2. The chronicler William of Malmesbury calls him the nepos, or "nephew", of Roger of Salisbury, but this is a euphemism used to describe the sons of clerics in the Middle Ages. [4] William's description of Roger was that he was "a nephew or perhaps even a closer relation" of the elder Roger. [5]
  3. Some later historians applied the same name to his father, but this is not a contemporary attestation. [4]
