Around 1041, his father died and he inherited the small fief of Hauteville la Guichard Hauteville in the Cotentin and the sirery of Pirou through his wife.

  1. Geoffrey of Hauteville

    Geoffrey of Hauteville also Gottfried , Godfrey , Goffredo , or Gaufrido was a Normans Norman military leader, the second youngest son of Tancred of Hauteville by his first wife Muriella. He joined his brothers in the Mezzogiorno around 1053, arriving with his half brothers Mauger of Hauteville Mauger and William of the Principate William . He was certainly present at the Battle of Civitate in that year. In that year, Humphrey of Hauteville Humphrey , his brother the count of Apulia , gave Mauger and William the Capitanate and the Principate , respectively, with the title of count. When Mauger died later that decade in 1054, according to Goffredo Malaterra , the county passed to William, who gave it to Geoffrey. In 1059, his brother Robert Guiscard , Humphrey s successor over Geoffrey, who was older, but had not been in the south as long, helped him quell a revolt in the Capitanate. He also ruled the region around Loritello , where his son Robert I of Loritello Robert was invested as count, and he expanded his domains into those of the pope, conquering Gissi in the Abruzzi . His death is a matter of confusion. The Breve Chronicon Northmannicum states, on the authority of Goffredo Malaterra , that he died in 1063, but the chronicler apparently confused the many Geoffreys of the period. He probably died circa 1071. He had been married in Normandy and he had three sons from that union the aforementioned Robert Ralph of Catanzaro Ralph , who inherited Catanzaro and William of Tiriolo William , who inherited Tiriolo . In the Mezzogiorno, he married, like his eldest brother William Iron Arm , a niece of the Prince Guaimar IV of Salerno , Theodora of Capaccio, daughter of Pandulf, lord of Capaccio , Guaimar s brother. From this second marriage was born at least one son, named Tancred, who was alive in 1103 and 1104. He also had a son, of unknown parentage, named Drogo of Chieti ...

He soon distinguished himself and was invested with the county of the Capitanate soon after his arrival either 1053 or 1057 by Humphrey of Hauteville Humphrey , his half brother and count of Apulia , but he did not long survive to hold it. According to Goffredo Malaterra , he died in 1054, though other chroniclers have him dying in 1057 or as late as 1060, after assisting his elder full brother Robert Guiscard , Humphrey s successor, in an expedition against the new army of the Byzantine Emperor Constantine X , sent to recover Langobardia Theme Langobardia . Whenever he died, his fief went to William, who passed it to Geoffrey out of fraternal affection according to Malaterra . Sources Chalandon, Ferdinand.

    Amatus of Montecassino Amatus Casinensis , a Benedictine monk at the Montecassino Abbey of Montecassino is one of three Italo Norman chronicle rs, the others being William of Apulia and Goffredo Malaterra . His History of the Normans L Ystoire de li Normant in eight books, originally written in Latin ca 1080, but preserved only in a later Old French version, is a prime source for retrieving the history of the Normans in the Mediterranean, as seen from the perspective of the great Abbey, which was one of the most important cultural and religious centers of 11th century Christendom. Amatus describes the Norman sieges of Bari and Salerno , the conquest of Sicily, and the career of Robert Guiscard , as well as the Gregorian Reform s seen from the papal point of view, interspersed with reports of miracles and prophecies. Many details of 11th century history, such as the arrow in the eye that killed Harold at the battle of Hastings ref http www.bayeux tapestry.org.uk amatus.htm Amatus of Monte Cassino L Ystoire de li Normant extract ref , owe their origin to the chronicler of Montecassino. The historical novel by Gabriella Brooke, The Words of Bernfrieda A Chronicle of Hauteville Cheney Eastern Washington University Press, 1999 tells of the lady Fredesenda of Hauteville, mother of Robert Guiscard , as seen by her handmaid, who has met Amatus and intends to record all that Amatus chronicle will leave out .

  1. Roger Borsa

    Roger Borsa 1060 1 &ndash 22 February 1111 was the Italo Normans Norman Duke of Apulia and effective ruler of southern Italy from 1085 until his death. He was the son of Robert Guiscard , the conqueror of southern Italy and Sicily Roger was not as adept as his father, and most of his reign was spent in feudal anarchy. Biography Roger was the son of Robert Guiscard and Sikelgaita , an imposing warrior Lombard noblewoman. His ambitious mother arranged for Roger to succeed his father in place of Robert Guiscard s eldest son by another wife, Bohemund of Taranto .
