!Roger was born D'Abitot, Earl of Worcestershire and its Sheriff as he
succeeded to this title from his father. He was deprived of his est ates
through the heavy indignation of King Henry because in his headlong f ury he
commanded one of the King's servants to be killed. The lands were th en
bestowed upon his sister Emeline who had married Walter De Beauchamp . Roger
could no longer stay in the area because he was in danger from the ki ng so he
sought safety elsewhere. He was probably living in Wales and had spe cial
reliance on the friendliness of the Over-Lord of his Herefordshire La nd, Ralf
De Toeni, (one of the most powerful of all the great nobles in Englan d) He was
then given possession of a tract of land in Herefordshire from this R alf De
Toeni and apparently took the name of Ernaldus De Powis to avoid anyo ne who
might be searching for him because of his disfavor in the king's eyes , and
bestowed this land upon his son William.
Also witnessing this transfer and agreeing to it is
found his sister Emeline and her husband De Beauchamp. In effect, h e was given
authority over property that his sister now owned. (Ralf De Toeni wa s an
Over-Lord for the family holdings). Powis was a principalit y in North
Wales.[Direct Linage1.FTW]
