The Chronica Fontanellensis names "Respogio filio Nomenoi, tyranno Brittonum." The Chronica Rainaldi records that "Rainaldo…comite Nannetensium" was killed in 843 while fighting "Herispoium, Noremoi filium at alios Britannos apud Metiacum." "Erispoius…provinciæ Brittaniæ princeps" names "genitoris mei Nominoe…consobrini mei Salomonis filiique meiConan episcoporumque" in a charter dated 19 May [851/57].

The Annales Bertiniani record that "Respogius dux Brittonum" was killed in 857by "Salamone et Almaro Brittonibus."
