==Additional notes==
Apart from the cardinals metioned above sometimes it is erroneously claimed that Celestine II created also some other persons to the cardinalate, who actually were created by other popes or are confused with other cardinals.
Cardinal-priests Giulio of S. Marcello and Robert Pullen of S. Martino, and cardinal-deacon Giacinto Bobone (future pope Celestine III) almost certainly were created by Lucius II.Brixius, p. 52-53 no. 6, 8 and 9, and p. 104. On the other hand, cardinal-deacon GregorioConsistory of Ash Wednesday 1144 by Salvador Miranda. is attested as cardinal already under Innocent II.Brixius, p. 42 no. 17, p. 87-88.
Cardinal-priest Gezo of S. Susanna, who allegedly subscribed a bull on 15 March 1144,Jaffé, II, p. 7 probably "owes" his existence wrong transcription of the signature Goizo presbiter cardinalis tituli S. Caeciliae.Brixius, p. 82. Cardinal Goizo of S. Cecilia was created by Innocent II.
Finally, cardinal Ugo Misani of Bologna, ostensibly created cardinal-priest of S. Lorenzo in Lucina,Consistory of Ash Wednesday 1144 by Salvador Miranda. is undoubtedely the same person as cardinal-deacon Ugo of S. Lucia in Septisolio, who was promoted to the rank of cardinal-priest of S. Lorenzo in Lucina by Lucius II, and was born in Novara, not in Bologna.Brixius, p. 98-99; cfr Zenker, p. 124. The origins from Novara of cardinal Ugo of S. Lorenzo in Lucina are confirmed by contemporary chronicle Gesta Alberonis. The statement about Bolognese origins is based on a confusion with cardinal Hugo of Bologna under Alexander III (Brixius, p. 99).
