Walter of the Mill

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Walter of the Mill (fl. 1160-1191), Italianised as Gualtiero Offamiglio or Offamilio and Latinised as Ophamilius (subsequently Anglicised as Ophamil or Offamil), was the archdeacon of Cefal , dean of Agrigento, and archbishop of Palermo (1168-1191), called il primo ministro. He was long thought to be an Englishman who came to Sicily with Peter of Blois and Stephen du Perche at the direction of Rotrou, Archbishop of Rouen, cousin of Queen Margaret of Navarre, originally as a tutor to the royal children of William I of Sicily and Margaret. Today his sobriquet is thought to derive from the Latin protofamiliaris, meaning "first confidante ." His mother was Bona, a patron of the Abbey of Cluny and a devota et fidelis nostra of the king in 1172. His father is unknown.
