ROGER de Abitot . Henry I King of England instructed "Waltero vicecomiti Gloec et Rogero vicecomiti de Wirecestr et Hugoni de Legrec" that the monks of Worcester Cathedral should enjoy quiet enjoyment, by charter dated to [Jun 1109/Aug 1111] or [Jul/Oct 1113].
Ellis says that "Roger d´Abitot" son of Urse de Abitot "having killed one of the household of Henry I was banished", but does not cite the primary source in question. The banishment must be dated to [1114], as Henry I King of England granted "totam terram Rogeri de Wygrecestra", in and around the town of Worcester, to "Waltero de Bello Campo" by charter dated to [1114, after 15 Aug].

Roger d'Abetot (sometimes Roger of Abitôt) was a medieval English Sheriff of Worcestershire.
Roger was the son of Urse d'Abetot, his predecessor as sheriff. He also held the custody of Worcester Castle, another office he inherited from his father. He may also have been a constable in Henry I's household, as his father had been. Along with the offices, Roger also inherited the barony of Salwarpe in Worcestershire. He was banished from England in around 1110 or in 1114 by King Henry I, and lost his office because of this. His lands were also forfeit. According to the medieval writer William of Malmesbury, Henry exiled him because Roger ordered that a royal official be killed.
The office passed to Osbert d'Abetot, who may have been Roger's uncle, before eventually ending up with Roger's brother-in-law Walter de Beauchamp.
