1 Edward of Salisbury was youngest son of Walter Rosmar, called ‘le 
Heureux” or “the Fortunate,” from having received at the Conquest, enormous 
grants in Wiltshire, including the Castle of Old Sarum. Walter’s eldest son 
remained in Normandy. Edward having been born in England was selected 
by his father for the English inheritance, with the adopted name of Edward of 
Salisbury, and the hereditary office of Vicecomes. He was father of another 
Walter of Salisbury, who founded Bradenstoke Abbey, and ancestor of Ela, 
Countess of Salisbury,who founded Lacock Abbey. He is commonly distinguish- 
ed as Edwardus Vicecomes or the Sheriff. Wiltshire seems to have had no 
Comes or Earl at the time of the Domesday Survey. The official rents of the 
Sheriff were received in kind ; bacon-hogs, corn, honey, hens, cheeses, &e.
