{-see "Falaise Roll," M.J.Crispin (1938), p.100-01.} Roger was the first Earl of Sussex {(per
"Complete Peerage," G.E.Cokayne, I:138-9)}- his grants from William the Conqueror included
much of Sussex (including Chichester and the castle and honor of Arundel) and lands in
Shropshire with the castles of Shrewsbury and Montgomery. His titles were forfeit to the
crown when his son Robert was attainted in 1102; the estates were then conferred by Henry I on
his 2nd wife Adelicia [ID2950], who after Henry I died m. William d'Aubigny. (Also see (May,
