Feudal baron (2nd class) of Appleby, Westmorland.
Sanders, Baronies p. 104, note (2) says he m. Maud Clare but it was undoubtedly his father that did this fell deed.

Smyth writes that in private both he and his father were called Roger, but the public records always say Robert.

CP says, Vol III, p. 292, note (d), that Sir Lewis Clifford KG was probably a brother of Roger the 5th lord, making him a son of this Robert de Clifford.
