    (NY: Frederick Ungar Pub. Co., 1959), p. 28: Rollo was granted Normandy in 911 by King Charles
    the Simple of the Franks. Rollo "...was known in the North as Hrolf the Ganger, because he

    was driven into exile by the anger of King Harold, whereupon he followed his trade in the
    Western Isles and in Gaul, and rose to be a great Jarl among his people."
