About Robert of Chichester
Robert of Chichester was a catholic priest.
Robert of Chichester (died before April 1161) was a medieval Bishop of Exeter.
Robert is often confused with his predecessor, Robert Warelwast. His surname comes from a single source, one of his successors. He was a relative of David FitzGerald, bishop of St David's, but the exact relationship is unknown. He held a prebend at Islington in the diocese of London, and was dean of Salisbury from 1148. He was consecrated on 5 June 1155 but other sources just say he died before 18 April 1161. His burial site is unknown.
