 He is generally said to have been a son of Roger I of Tosny; primary evidence is lacking to determine his parentage, according to Cawley.

 Also "Robertus de Staffordia et Robertus filius meus et hæres" confirmed donations of property to Evesham Monastery by "Rodbertus avus meus...et pater meus Nicholaus" by undated charter.

Deddington Castle was a medieval fortification in the village of Deddington, Oxfordshire.
 It was built on a wealthy former Anglo-Saxon estate by Bishop Odo of Bayeux following the Norman conquest of England in 1066.
 Odo constructed a large castle with two earthwork baileys and a central motte, intending that the castle administer his property in the region and provide a substantial military base in the event of an Anglo-Saxon revolt.
 Odo's estates in England were seized following a failed rebellion against William II in 1088, and Deddington Castle was taken back into royal control.
