Roger FitzAlan

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Roger FitzAlan was a thirteenth-century Mayor of London. Having been a Sheriff of London in 1192,[1] he was elected mayor in September 1212 on the death of his predecessor,[2] although his term of office was meant only to be one year, he stayed in office until May 1214,[3] when rebel barons against John of England captured London and installed their own candidate against the King.[4]
