[edit] Dates

LC authority file has his dates as ca. 1116-ca. 1142; the source for this is a database search in the Canadian national library in 1984. Wikipedia has ca. 1080 to ca. 1152; any way to find more precise dates? I suppose Burnett's book would give more recent stab at the dates since it was pub. in 1999; if I have a chance I will order the book--FeanorStar7 10:23, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Cochrane's book has c. 1080 as is his birthdate; does not give a death date. --FeanorStar7 21:52, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
