Roscemanno Sanseverino
Roscemanno, O.S.B.Cas. (died in 1128 or later) was a Roman Catholic Cardinal and Deacon of San Giorgio in Velabro. He was the son of the monk Roscemanno. He himself became a monk at the Benedictine abbey of Montecassino. Roscemanno was named a cardinal by Pope Paschal II, at the same time as Oderisius II, abbot of Montecassino, probably in 1111 or 1112. He is not named as one of the cardinals who was taken prisoner, along with Pope Paschal, on 12 February 1111, or made to swear the oath in the name of the pope to accept the agreement with King Henry V. He was one of the cardinals who condemned the "Privilegium" granted by Pope Paschal II to King Henry at the Lateran synod of March 1112. He participated in the papal election of 24 January 1118.

Cardinal (Catholicism)
A cardinal is a senior member of the clergy of the Catholic Church. As titular members of the clergy of the Diocese of Rome, they serve as advisors to the pope, who is the bishop of Rome and the Head of the Church#Catholic Church, visible head of the worldwide Catholic Church. Cardinals are chosen and formally created by the pope, and typically hold the title for life. Collectively, they constitute the College of Cardinals.

San Giorgio In Velabro
San Giorgio in Velabro is a Catholic church dedicated to St. George on Via del Velabro in the historic center of Rome in the Velabrum and the Ripa district. The church—the result of the 9th century expansion of a previous diaconal building and subsequent remodeling—stands near the Arch of Janus in the small square of the Cloaca Maxima. The location of S. Giorgio is not far from the place where the founding legend of Rome places the discovery of the twins Romulus and Remus by the she-wolf. The façade of the church encroaches upon and incorporates the Arcus Argentariorum, which was completed in 204 AD. S. Giorgo falls within the territory of the parish of Santa Maria in Portico in Campitelli and is a rectory entrusted to the Canons Regular of the Order of the Holy Cross as well as a titular church, whose cardinal-deacons over the years have included Pope Boniface IX and Pope Martin V, as well as Pierre de Luxembourg ( pseudocardinal of the Antipope Clement VII) and ...
