Algemene notities:
In Norman times they were relatively lowly lords, their manors securing for them a place in the third or perhaps lower second tier of the nobility. In the early twelfth century they conquered a large swathe of mid-Wales, Maelienydd, which they ruled as magnates thereafter. They regularly killed or blinded Welsh princes caught in battle and maintained the border by sheer force. Diplomacy was not beyond them, however, and a great success was achieved when one of the most warring Mortimers, Roger (d1215), settled the ownership of Maelienydd for good with Llywelyn the Great.
Roger trouwde met Isabel Ferrers, dochter van Walkelin de Ferrers en N.N. (Isabel Ferrers werd geboren omstreeks 1153 en overleed vóór 31 Mei 1253.)
