Hugh (archbishop of Palermo)

[1] In 1150, pursuant to an agreement between King Roger II of Sicily and Pope Eugene III, Hugh was transferred from Capua to the see of Palermo.

[3] At Easter 1151, Hugh, using the authority of the pallium,[4] consecrated Roger II's son William as co-king at Palermo.

These claims are contradicted by the trust William placed in Hugh and Maio during his lengthy illness that year, from September to Christmas.

[5] On the night of 10 November 1160, Maio was living the house of the archbishop, where Hugh lay ill, when he was attacked and killed by Matthew Bonnell.

This would seem to place Hugh's death several years earlier, whereas a donation of land to the archdiocese dated April 1145 shows that Palermo at that time still had an archbishop.
