Serlo I of Hauteville

Serlo I of Hauteville

Serlo I of Hauteville (also spelled "Sarlo" or "Serlon" in French) was a younger (probably the youngest, though some sources call him the eldest) son of Tancred of Hauteville by his first wife, Muriella. Born before 1010, he was the eldest son of Tancred's to remain in Normandy. He, after having a dispute with a neighbour (a man of the court of Robert I, duke of Normandy), whom he killed over an insult, was exiled for three years. Around 1041, his father died and he inherited the small fief of Hauteville in the Cotentin and the sirery of Pirou through his wife. He was regarded, as were his brothers, as an exceptional warrior.

His son Serlo followed his uncle Roger c.1056 to the Mezzogiorno and made his fortunes there.
