Note 318 — Chapter III · ANJOU AND BLOIS. 987–1044.
Reading edition
In 963; Chron. Turon. Abbrev. ad ann. (Salmon, Chron. de Touraine, p. 185). From the foundation-charter, cited by M. l’abbé Bardet (La Collégiale de Loches, p. 8), it seems that Geoffrey founded the church on his return from a pilgrimage to Rome. A fragment of his work possibly remains in the present church (now called S. Ours), which was built by the historian-prior, Thomas Pactius, in the time of Henry II.
