Roald 'Le Strange' or "Extraneus' may have been a Breton and was of a family that 
seems to have migrated from Brittany to England (hence his second name, whether in 
its French or Latin form). But it is less certain that his family were actually of Breton 
origin. He testified to a charter before 1122 and was a tenant of Alan fitz Fleald in 
Mileham, Norfolk; also held land in Hunstanton, Norfolk; married Maud, daughter of 
Ralph fitz Herlewin or Ralph de Hunstanton, and was in all probability dead by 1158, 
having had [John], with two other but not necessarily younger sons (Hamon, held 
lands in Cheswardine, Salopshire, dead by 1163/4; Guy, granted land in Alveley, 
Salop, Sheriff of Salop 1159-60, had at least two daus). [Burke's Peerage]

-------------------

ROALD LESTRANGE (Extraneus) with others of the tenants of Alan FitzFlaald in 
Mileham, Norfolk, witnessed, before 1122, a charter of his lord in favour of Castleacre 
Priory; he held in Hunstanton, where he made a grant of land which was later 
confirmed by John Lestrange IV; he further attested a grant by Robert son of Wimer to 
Castleacre Priory. He married Maud, daughter of Ralph, son of HERLEWIN, or DE 
HUNSTANTON, by Helewise, daughter of Hugh DE PLAIZ, of Bernham, Suffolk. He 
died before, and probably some time before, 1158. [Complete Peerage XII/1:347-8,
