    Other Events and Attributes:

    • General Information: Cokayne says of him He was a powerful and haughty man, and banner-bearer of all Normandy. His name was also spelt Raoult.
    • Offices Held: From 1014 to 1030; He was the Castellan of Tillieres Castle with his father from 1014 to 1030.
    • Moved To: Before 1024; Before 1024, Roger and his father gained permission from Richard II to return to Normandy.
    • Military: say 1031; Roger fought the Muslims in Iberia. The small Christian states of Northern Iberia welcomed volunteers and adventurers who they could use to mount a strong force for the Reconquista. Roger was summoned by Ermesinde of Carcassonne, regent-countess of Barcelona after the death of her husband Ramon Borrell, to help her against the Muslim threat to her power. Roger rushed to help, marrying Ermesende's daughter, terrorising the Saracens and capturing several towns and castles. Adémar de Chabannes gives an echo of the more or less legendary deeds of Roger in Iberia. He gained the nickname Mangeur de Maures (Moor-Eater). Adémar recounts that Roger took his captured Saracens each day and, in front of them, cut one of their number in two, boiling the first half and giving it to the other Muslims to eat, and pretending to take the other half into his own tent for him and his companions to eat. Then Roger allowed some of these prisoners to escape, to spread these horrific rumours.
    • Charter/Grant/Gift: 1031/32; In 1031/32 he attested a charter of Robert I for St. Wanrille.
    • Military: 1035; In 1035, while Duke Robert was away on pilgrimage, he went to Spain and distinguished himself fighting the infidels. When he returned to Normandy, he was furious to learn that the boy William had succeeded his father in the Duchy, declaring that a bastard ought not to rule over him and other Normans. Accordingly he rebelled and ravaged the lands of his neighbors, particularly those of Humphrey de Vieilles, whose son, Roger de Beaumont, marched against him, and in the battle which followed, he and two of his sons were killed.
    • Religion: 1034/35; About 1035, he founded the Abbey of Châtillon or Conches.
