Roger De+ Mortimer 
Roger De+ was born about 1222 in Cwmaron Castle, Radnorshire, Wales. Roger De+'s father was Ralph De+ Mortimer and his mother was Gwladus Verch Llewelyn (Ddu) Of+ Gwynedd. His paternal grandparents were Roger De+ Mortimer and Isabel De+ Ferrers; his maternal grandfather was Llewelyn Mawr ap Iowerth Of+ Gwynedd and his maternal grandmother is Tangwstyl Verch+ Llywarch. He had a brother and a sister, named Hugh De+ and Joan De. He was the second oldest of the three children. He died on October 27th, 1282 in Kingsland, Herefordshire, England.General Notes
"Being half Welsh did not stop Ralph's heir, another Roger (1232-1282) from fighting his cousin Llywelyn ap Gruffydd, the last free prince of Wales, until Wales was a spent force. In 1282 it was Roger's four sons who tracked down Llywelyn, killed him and carried his head to London.
When Simon de Montfort took arms against the King, Roger Mortimer at first backed him but then changed sides. At the Battle of Lewes in 1260 Roger supported the King and consequently lost his five hundred men-at-arms in the ensuing rout. Roger himself barely got away that day. Afterwards he proved a loyal servant to King Henry, rescuing the heir to the throne (the future King Edward I) from captivity in Hereford Castle. Finally, at the battle of Evesham, Roger Mortimer took command of the vanguard. At the end of the battle, de Montfort's head was cut off and sent as a present to Lady Mortimer at Wigmore. Delightful."
"The above mentioned Roger Mortimer (1232-1282) raised the family to new heights in his wars against Llywelyn and de Montfort. Indeed, he was made Regent of England on one occasion and gathered many more estates to his credit.
