Jaffé precises that some days before December 15, 1120, in Rome, Pope Callistus II ordinationes fecit prebyterorum, diaconarum et subdiaconarum. It is without doubt that in that date he includes one of the two creations of cardinals, the presbyterial option of 2 or 3 deacons and the ordination of the subdeacons mentioned below. It adds that, according to Jaffé, Callisutus II was at Cluny from December 30, 1119 to January 7, 1120 and that he consecrated, on January 3, the bishop of Geneva, Humbert, who is not considered a cardinal.

Honorius II (1124-1130)

Note. Chacón Oldoini, Vitae et res gestae Pontificum Romanorum et S. R. E. Cardinalium, I, cols. 960-970, indicates that this pope had 3 creations of cardinals: December 1125, with 9; December 1125, with 3; and December 1127, with 8; besides, he created another 5 cardinals whose creations it cannot ascertain in which of those 3 promotions they belong. According to the subscriptions of the bulls given by Jaffé, Regesta Pontificum Romanorum, many of the dates given by Chacón-Oldoini are wrong. For this reason, Annuaire Pontifical Catholique, 1928, p. 123, organized Pope Honorius II's cardinals by their order and not by the date of their creation as follows.

[Antipope] Celestine II (1124)

Antipope Celestine II was elected on December 15/16, 1124. Died in 1125 or 1126. Resigned the following day in favor of Honorius II to avoid a schism. Did not create any pseudocardinals. (1)

(1) Kelly, Oxford Dictionary of Popes, p. 167, says that because he had not received the episcopal consecration or had been enthroned, although he had been canonically elected, he does not appear in the official list of popes but is classified, unfairly, as an antipope.

Innocent II (1130-1143)

Note. Chacón Oldoini, Vitae et res gestae Pontificum Romanorum et S. R. E. Cardinalium, I, cols. 982-1005, and Mais-Latrie, Trésor de chronologie, who follows it, indicate that this pope had 6 creations of cardinals: 1130 or 1133, with 9; 1133 or 1134, with 3; 1134 or 1135, with 10; 1138, with 11; 1140, with 10; 1142, with 5; besides, he created another 12 cardinals whose date of promotion it cannot ascertain. According to the subscriptions of the bulls given by Jaffé, Regesta Pontificum Romanorum, that information contains many errors. For this reason, Annuaire Pontifical Catholique, 1928, p. 123, organizes Innocent II's cardinals by their order and not by the date of their creation as follows.

According to Annuaire Pontifical Catholique, 1928, p. 132, at Antipope Anacletus' death, Pope Innocent II did not accept these pseudocardinals' promotions.

Celestine II (1143-1144)

Note. Chacón-Oldoini, Vitæ et res gestæ Pontificum Romanorum et S. R. E. Cardinalium, I, cols. 1015-1019, indicates that this pope created 12 cardinals (5 priests and 7 deacons) on Ash Day 1144 (just a few days before the pope's death on March 8). Annuaire Pontifical Catholique, 1928, p. 133, argues that this date is wrong because Jaffé, Regesta Pontificum Romanorum, indicates that many of them signed his bulls in December 1143. Annuaire concludes not only that the date given by Chacón-Oldoni is wrong but also that they could have been created in successive promotions and not in only one. Furthermore, instead of the 12 cardinals enumerated by Chacón-Oldoini, Annuaire says that it only found 11 and that no. 10, below, was listed twice confusing him with no. 4, and also, that no. 11 is believed by many to have been created by Pope Lucius II. Annuaire adjusted the 12 creations on the list following Jaffé. Finally, Annuaire, 1928, p. 135, says that among the signers of the bulls given by Jaffé appears Adenu, abbot of Farfa and deacon of the Holy Church who subscribed a bull on October 28, 1143, indicating that he does not know if he was a cardinal because he is not mentioned by either Chacón-Oldoini or Cristofori. Cardella, Memorie storiche de' Cardinali della Santa Romana Chiesa, I, pt. 2, pp. 41-51, lists the same 12 cardinals of Chacón-Oldoini.

Cardinal priests (4)
(1) 1. Raniero. + Shortly after December 14, 1144.
(2) 2. Ariberto (or Amberto). + ca. 1156.
(3) 3. Giulio. + ca. April 1164.
(4) 4. Ugo Misini (or Misani ?), Can.Reg. di S. Maria di Reno, prior of the Monastery of S. Prassede. + 1150. (1)

(1) Chacón-Oldoini, Vitae et res gestae Pontificum Romanorum et S. R. E. Cardinalium, I, col. 1018, indicates that he died during the pontificate of Pope Celestine II.

Cardinal deacons (8)
(5) 1. Rodolfo. + Shortly after the election of Pope Alexander III in September 1159.
(6) 2. Gregorio. + 1168, falling from a horse on the way from Viterbo to Rome.

Lucius II (1144-1145)

Note. Chacón-Oldoini, Vitae et res gestae Pontificum Romanorum et S. R. E. Cardinalium, I, cols. 1023-1028, lists 2 creations of cardinals: on the Vigil of Pentecost 1144, with one, and in December 1144 with 10. Annuaire Pontifical Catholique, 1928, p. 135, indicates that in the second promotion, one belongs to the pontificate of Celestine II, another one was created in June 1144, and another 2 belong in the following pontificate. Besides, Annuaire and Jaffé, Regesta Pontificum Romanorum, add a new one.
