The first of this great family that settled in England was Roger Bigodwho, in the Conqueror's time, possessed six lordships in Essex and ahundred and seventeen in Suffolk, besides divers manors inNorfolk. ThisRoger, adhering to the party that took up arms against William Rufus inthe 1st year of that monarch's reign, fortified the castle at Norwich andwasted the country around. At the accession of Henry I, being a witnessof the king's laws and staunch in his interests, he obtained Framlinghamin Suffolkas a gift from the crown. We find further of him that hefounded in 1103, the abbey of Whetford, in Norfolk, and that he wasburied there at his decease in four years after, leaving, by Adelizahiswife, dau. and co-heir of Hugh de Grentesmesnil, high steward ofEngland, a son and heir, William Bigod, steward of the household of KingHenry I. [Sir Bernard Burke, Dormant, Abeyant, Forfeited, and ExtinctPeerages, Burke's Peerage, Ltd., London, 1883, p. 53, Bigod, Earls ofNorfolk]
Roger Bigod was one of the tight-knit group of second-rank Norman nobleswho did well out of the conquest of England. Prominent in the Calvadosregion before 1064 as an under-tenant of Odo of Bayeux, he rose inducaland royal service to become, but 1086, one of the leading barons inEastAnglia, holding wide estates to whichhe added Belvoir by marriage andFramlingham by grant of Henry I. His territorial fortune was based on hisservice in the royal household, where he was a close adviser and agentfor the first three Norman kings, and the propitious circumstances ofpost-Conquest politics. Much of his honour in East Anglia was carved outof lands previously belonging to thedispossessed Archbishop Stigand,hisbrother Aethelmar of Elham, and the disgraced Earl Ralph of Norfolkand Suffolk. Under Rufus --- if not before --- Roger was one of theking's stewards. Usually in attendance on the king, he regularlywitnessedwrits but was also sent out to the provinces as a justice orcommissioner. Apart from a flirtation with the cause of Robert Curthosein 1088, he remained conspicuously loyal to Rufus and Henry I, for whomhe continued to act as steward and to witness charters. The adherence ofsuch men was vital to the Norman kings. Through them central businesscould be conducted and localities controlled. Small wonder they were wellrewarded. Roger established a dynasty which dominated East Anglia fromthe 1140s, as earls of Norfolk, until 1306. Roger's byname and thesubsequent family name was derived from a word (bigot) meaningdouble-headed instrument such as apickaxe: a tribute, perhaps to Roger'seffectiveness as a royal servant; certainly an apt image of one whoworked hard both for his masters and for himself. [Who's Who in EarlyMedieval England, Christopher Tyerman, Shepheard-Walwyn, Ltd., London,1996]
Roger Bigod or le Bigot, a feudal Baron,the first of this great familythat settled in England and was, in the Conqueror's time, possessed ofsix lordships in Essex, 117 in Suffold. At the accession of King Henry I,being a witness of the King's laws and stanch in his interests, heobtained gifts of land from the crown, and was Lord Stewart of the King'shousehold.

The identity of Thomas Erskine's wife is not certain. She may not have been a daughter of the 1st Earl of Morton although that is often stated, sometimes as Elizabeth but perhaps more often as Janet.
