  Notes	[dunbar_tree.FTW] Robert was educated at Rheims under Gerbert (later Pope Silvester II). "As the ideal of mediaeval Christianity he won his surname of `Pious' by his humility and charity, but he also possessed some of the qualities of a soldier and a statesman." Crowned in 12-987, he became sole king on his father's death in 996. Marriage irregularities led to his excommunication by Pope Gregory V.{-Encycl.Brit.,`56,19:347} "Ancestral Roots..." (Balt., 1992) 101-21 gives his birth year as 985.
