Research Notes:
The Annals of Romoald name "Sibiliam sororem ducis Burgundie" as the second wife of "rex Rogerius", specifying that she died at Salerno soon after their marriage and was buried "apud Caream". The Chronicle of Romualdo Guarna records that King Roger married "Sibiliam sororem ducis Burgundiæ" and that she died soon after at Salerno and was buried "apud Caveam", dated from the context to after the death of the king´s oldest son (in 1149). A short anonymous Chronicle of Cassino records the death of "Sybilla regina" in 1150. The Annales Casinenses record the death in 1151 of "Sibilla regina". Chalandon states that King Roger´s second wife died in childbirth, which he dates to 19 Sep 1151. 1
