From a family originating in the village of Orival (Aurea Valle) in Normandy, he was elected after 29 August 1075.[2] He died in 1084 or 1085, with his death being commemorated on 12 January[3] — his death year is recorded as 1084 Old Style (i.e. 25 March 1084 – 24 March 1085), so he may very well have died 12 January 1085 (New Style).
