The Conqueror and His Companions
by J.R. Planché, Somerset Herald. London: Tinsley Brothers, 1874.
Rongwald,like the majority of his countrymen and kinsmen, had several
children by a favourite slave, whom he had married "more Danico," and
Hrolf Turstain, the sonof one of them [I have Hrollaug Rognvaldson as
father of Hrolf], having followed his uncle Rollo into Normandy, managed
to secure the hand of Gerlotte deBlois, daughter of Thibaut Count of
Blois and Chartres, which seems to havebeen the foundation of this
branch of the great Norse family in Normandy, andthe stock from which
descended the Lords of Briquebec, of Bec-Crispin, of Montfort-sur-Risle,
and others who figure as companions of the Conqueror.
