Notes

Most rural priests were married and many urban clergy and bishops had wives and children." Then at the Second Lateran Council of 1139 the Roman Church declared that Holy Orders were not merely a prohibitive but a diriment canonical impediment to marriage,therefore making a marriage by priests invalid.
The universal requirement to celibacy was imposed upon the clergy with force in 1123 and again in 1139.
