High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Rainald, Abbot of Abingdon. Rainald is a former monk of Jumieges who was King William's chaplain when he was appointed Abbot of Abingdon by him in 1084. He died in Normandy in 1097. The following is a list of abbots of Abingdon. The Abbey of Abingdon was in northern Berkshire. The site is now in Oxfordshire. Historian Susan E. Kelly regards the traditional first six abbots as fictional: "There is good reason to think that in most cases their names were simply plucked from early charters available in the abbey's archive, the majority of which would seem to have had no connection with an early minister at Abingdon; there is no very convincing evidence that the historians had access to independent, reliable sources of information. The 'history' of the pre-AEthelwoldian minister seems to a very large extent to represent a fictional reconstruction".
