Roger I de Mortemer Seigneur of Mortemer-sur-Eaulne, Normandy died between 1078 and 1086.1
      ; Per Wikipédia (Fr.):
     "Roger de Mortemer († vers 1080), seigneur de Saint-Victor-en-Caux. C'est probablement le duc de Normandie Guillaume le Bâtard (plus tard le Conquérant) qui lui donne la garde du château de Mortemer (Seine-Maritime), à la frontière normande sur la route d'Amiens. Il a d'importants domaines dans le Pays de Caux et épouse Hawise, une aristocrate qui est héritière de terres dans le diocèse d'Amiens. Pour ces terres, Roger fait hommage à Raoul, comte de Valois. En 1054, quand le roi Henri Ier de France envahit la Normandie, le comte Raoul est capturé après la bataille de Mortemer. Peu après Roger est banni pour l'avoir fait libérer. Il se réconcilie plus tard avec le duc, et il retrouve ses possessions à l'exception du château de Mortemer qui est confié à Guillaume de Warenne, qui est probablement son frère. Il meurt avant 1086."5 GAV-25 EDV-26.

; NB: There is uncertainty about the parents of Roger I de Mortemer.
I. Med Lands: A discussion of the issues is found in Med Lands:
     "According to the Complete Peerage, Roger [I] de Mortemer came from Mortemer-sur-Eaulne, near Neufchâtel-en-Brai (upstream of Dieppe on the river Béthune, in the eastern part of the Pays de Caux) in Normandy, which it says must be distinguished from "Mortemer-en-Lions, the site of the abbey of the same name"[213]. Le Prévost is more specific, stating that he was from "Mortemer-en-Brai, sur la rivière d´Eaulne" and adding "on voit encore l´emplacement du château" (writing in 1840)[214]. Roger [I] is recorded by Orderic Vitalis as having led "omnes Caletenses" (from the Pays de Caux) at the battle of Mortemer against the French in 1054 but that his castle was confiscated after he had helped the escape of one of the French prisoners[215]. Although Roger was later reconciled with the king and recovered some of his lands, the castle of Mortemer remained with the Warenne family. The descendants of Roger [I] continued to bear the name "Mortimer", derived from the castle, despite its early confiscation.
     "There has been considerable debate about the ancestry of Roger [I] de Mortemer. The first question relates to the possible relationship between Roger [I] de Mortemer and William de Warenne 1st Earl of Surrey. This issue is discussed in the Complete Peerage which concludes that "its exact nature has not at present been discovered"[216]. The fact of the family relationship is indicated by Orderic Vitalis who, in a passage recounting an alleged death-bed speech of William I King of England, records that the castle of Mortemer, confiscated from Roger [I] de Mortemer after the battle of Mortemer in 1054, was granted to "Guillelmo de Guarenna consanguineo eius"[217]. In addition to this, Robert de Torigny, in his description of abbeys in Normandy, records that "Rogerius de Mortuo Mari, filius Walterii de Sancto Martino, frater vero primi Willermi de Warenna" founded "monasterium Sancti Victoris"[218]. A third source, Guillaume of Jumièges records that “nepotes...plures...Gunnor...una earum” married “patri primi Willelmi de Warenna” by whom she had “idem Willelmus postea comes Surreiæ et Rogerus de Mortuo-mari frater ipsius” [although an undated charter quoted in the document NORMANDY NOBILITY, which records a sale of property by “Hugo de Flamenvilla”, indicates that Raoul´s second wife was the mother of his son Guillaume][219]. The second source is clearly incorrect as regards the parentage of William de Warenne, whose father is confirmed in other primary sources as Raoul de Warenne (see the document NORMANDY NOBILITY, WARENNE). It is also clear that Roger [I] de Mortemer (already holder of a castle in 1054) must have been considerably older than William de Warenne, and so could hardly have been his brother. Stapleton proposed in 1846 that Roger [I] de Mortimer and Raoul de Warenne, father of William de Warenne 1st Earl of Surrey, were brothers, arguing that, because they are both mentioned in charters of Sainte-Trinité de Rouen in connection with the same property (see below), they had probably inherited it jointly[220].
     "Stapleton also proposed that Roger [I] de Mortemer was the same person as Roger, son of "Bishop Hugues". The question of the identity of Bishop Hugues is discussed in the document NORMANDY NOBILITY. Roger, son of the bishop, is named in three charters, two of which name his father as Bishop Hugues. Firstly, "…ejusdem Rodulfi de Guarethna., Beatricis uxori eius, Rogerii filii episcopi, Huberti filii Turoldi…" witnessed an undated charter which records an agreement between Sainte-Trinité de Rouen and "Rodulfo Warethnæ" to buy land "in Blovilla…apud villam…Merdeplud…et terram prati Sottevillæ"[221]. Secondly, "Rogerius, Hugonis episcopi filius" sold serfs "sub suo dominio in Blovilla et Einardi mansionali et Novillula et in Scurra vel Merdepluet villa…et suæ domus propriæ in urbe Rotomagi" to Sainte-Trinité de Rouen, with the consent of "sua uxore Odain…et eorum filiis Willelmo et Hugone", by undated charter[222]. Thirdly, "Rodulfus de Warenna eiusque conjux…Emma cum filiis suis Rodulfo…atque Willelmo" sold "totius Osulfi Villæ eiusdem Caletensis pagi", sold by "Guillelmo filio Rogerii filii Hugonis episcopi", to Sainte-Trinité de Rouen by charter dated 1074[223]. The Complete Peerage dismisses Stapleton´s hypothesis[224]. It argues firstly that the wife of Roger [I] de Mortemer is named Hawise in primary sources, compared with Oda as the wife of Roger, son of the bishop, and also that the bishop´s son is recorded with children named Guillaume and Hugues, whereas Roger [I]´s heir was named Ralph, although it would not be beyond the stretch of imagination to combine the two families, with Roger having married twice. The third difficulty proposed by the Complete Peerage is harder to dismiss. This is that the 1074 charter quoted above implies that Roger, father of Guillaume, was already deceased at the time of the sale of their property to Raoul de Warenne, whereas sources demonstrate that Roger [I] de Mortemer was still alive in 1078. A further difficulty with Stapleton´s hypothesis is that, if it was correct, the same person would have been referred to in the sources sometimes as "filius episcopi" and sometimes as "de Mortuomari". Such dual appellations are unusual. Different primary sources at the time usually refer to the same individual by the same name and epithet, presumably reflecting the style by which he was normally known among his contemporaries. If a person was known by two names, the style "X qui et Y" was usually adopted in the sources. One possible explanation for this apparent exception to normal practice is that, after the confiscation of his castle, "Rogerius de Mortuomari" became known as "Rogerius filius episcopi", although this does not appear consistent with the survival of the name Mortimer among Roger´s descendants long after the castle was lost."

II. Wikipedia: Wikipedia provides a summary discussion of the debate regarding Roger's origins:
"The origin of Roger of Mortemer has been subject to much scholarly debate. Only two early sources provide information. Orderic Vitalis calls William de Warenne consanguineo ejus (his cousin/kinsman), while Robert de Torigny confusingly provides three different versions of his parentage that, though inconsistent, all make him either brother or son, of William de Warenne. Historian Thomas Stapleton would identify him with Roger filius Episcopi (bishop's son), who was child of Hugh, bishop of Coutances, and he makes Rodulf de Warenne another son of Hugh, thus making Roger de Mortimer uncle of William de Warenne. However, L. C. Loyd showed that the two Rogers were distinct, and that Radulf, though related to Roger filius Episcopi, was not his brother. Loyd points to a Rogeri filii Radulfi de Warethna (Roger, son of Rodulf de Warenne) who appears in a pair of charters from the 1040s. Loyd was hesitant to connect them because William de Warenne was thought to have been son of this Rodulf, but evidence indicates he was not Roger's brother.[9] However, Katherine Keats-Rohan has concluded that two Rodulfs were mistakenly combined into one, and that Roger was son Rodulf (I) de Warenne and his wife Beatrice, while William de Warenne was his nephew, son of Rodulf (II) and Emma, and as this removes many of Loyd's concerns, she identifies Roger de Mortimer with Roger, son of Rodulf.[10] C. P. Lewis calls this hypothesis the "most plausible" solution.[8] Robert de Torigny called Roger's mother, who is not named, one of the nieces of Gunnor, Duchess of Normandy. This would seemingly make Beatrice that niece. Keats-Rohan identifies her with a later widow, Beatrice, daughter of Tesselin, vicomte of Rouen.[10]"

IV. Oxford Dictionary of National Biography:
"Mortimer, Roger (fl. 1054–c. 1080)
C. P. Lewis https://doi.org/10.1093/ref:odnb/19351
Published in print: 23 September 2004; Published online: 23 September 2004; This version: 19 May 2011
     "Mortimer, Roger de (fl. 1054–c. 1080), magnate, may never have set foot in England but was the progenitor of the Mortimer family whose importance in English history lasted until the male line died out in the early fifteenth century. His parentage is not certain, and different theories have been put forward to account for the evidence, in particular a charter attestation by a 'Roger, son of Ralph de Warenne', and the statements of the earliest genealogist of the family, Robert de Torigny, in the early twelfth century. Most plausibly Roger was the son of Ralph (I) de Warenne and his wife, Béatrice, who is shown to have been a niece of Duke Richard of Normandy by the later statement of Archbishop Anselm that the Warennes and the dukes then shared an ancestor four generations back on one side and six on the other. That parentage would make Roger (I) de Mortimer a second cousin once removed of Duke William, the conqueror of England. In any case he was certainly related in some way to the ducal house.
     "Probably it was Duke William who gave the young Roger custody of the castle of Mortemer on the Norman frontier towards Amiens, the castle from which he and his descendants took their family name. He had extensive lands in the Pays de Caux and forged alliances with the local aristocracy, taking as his wife Hawise, who inherited land in the diocese of Amiens, and swearing homage to a neighbouring count, Ralph de Crépy, count of Valois.
     "In 1054 King Henry I of France invaded Normandy. One of his allies was Count Ralph, who was in the French army which made for Mortemer. Duke William sent a force commanded by Roger de Mortimer and Robert, count of Eu, which fought and won a pitched battle against the French in the vicinity of Roger's castle. Count Ralph was taken prisoner. Roger behaved with propriety towards his lord the count: he took Ralph into the castle, protected him there for three days, then escorted him to safety. But he thereby prejudiced the interests of his other lord, the duke. William was furious and banished him, confiscating all his estates. When the duke calmed down and took Roger back into his friendship, he restored everything except Mortemer, which he gave instead to Roger's kinsman William (I) de Warenne.
     "Roger de Mortimer afterwards made his chief residence at St Victor-en-Caux, where he and Hawise evidently established a priory which in 1074 was made into an abbey with the permission of the archbishop of Rouen. Although wealthy and well connected, Roger was apparently excluded by the duke from any further participation at the centre of power, since he did not witness any ducal charters before 1066. The family did participate in and profit from the conquest of England, though it was probably through Roger's son Ralph (I) de Mortimer rather than through Roger himself. Roger's only other known public act was between 1078 and 1080, when he witnessed the royal charter which confirmed William (I) de Warenne's foundation of Lewes as a Cluniac priory; his approval might have been sought in Normandy rather than in England. Roger's date of death is unknown; it need not have been before 1086, when his son was in possession of the lands that had been acquired in England.
