Confusing details
editBounalbergo, in the sources I found, is spelled Buonalbergo. Even the nickname of his father Gerard is spelled this way in the article. This detail needs clarification. Maybe there was an instance when Robert changed it or the name is a mere variation. Also, there is the case of Gerard himself. According to Brown's The Norman Conquest of Southern Italy and Sicily (ISBN 9780786414727; see. p. 61), he was not Robert's father but a Norman knight who forged an alliance with him. Alberada was also not his daughter but his aunt and was offered to Robert as a wife as part of this alliance. I was not able to find other sources to corroborate this so I left the original content as is. Darwin Naz (talk) 23:24, 12 July 2019 (UTC)
