Notes for Pope Stefan of Zahumlje
Stephen X, Pope of Rome 1056-57:
Pope Stephen X named Frederick was the son of Gozelon, Duke of Lower Lorraine and of Urraca, daughter of Berengarius II, King of Italy. As a canon of Liège his cousin Leo IX met him and made him chancellor of the Roman Church 1051. He accompanied Leo IX in his journeys throughout Europe, and was sent by him to Constantinople which terminated in the final separation of the Eastern and Western Churches. Apparently here he had his son Ljubomir, who later became the Grand Zupan of Serbia.
On his return from the East he was robbed by the Count of Teate, and, to avoid falling into the hands of our Emperor Henry III of Germany (who distrusted him as the brother of the rebellious Godfrey the Bearded, Duke of Lorraine), he became a monk at Monte Cassino (1055), and, after the death of the Emperor Henry, its abbot (1057). He was made cardinal-priest of St. Chrysogonus by pope Victor II, and after his death chosen his successor on the following day 3 August, 1057.
