Roger Gordon

Roger Gordon was a 16th-century Scottish cleric who briefly served as Bishop of Galloway.

He was Dean of Dunblane Cathedral from at least 13 April 1554, a position he may have retained for the remainder of his life.

[2] He was elected to the bishopric of Galloway on the death of Alexander Gordon in 1575.

[3] He got Crown confirmation to the bishopric with mandate for consecration on 17 September 1578.

[3] However, John Gordon had been chosen as successor by Alexander in 1568, 7 years before the latter's death, and John Gordon seems to have prevented Roger from taking up the position of Bishop of Galloway in practice.
