I believe there was a real Robin Hood, and my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles is a half-serious attempt to re-create in fiction what may have been the reality.
The earliest Robin Hood ballads place him in Yorkshire and associate him with a King Edward, who takes him into the royal service. This can only be Edward II, who was in Yorkshire in 1323, and the servants in his court in 1323 included a Robyn Hod, his valet and porter. My source is Robin Hood, by J.C. Holt, though Holt draws back from making the identification as positive as I have.

Robin Hood must have had a family. In the ballad "The Death of Robin Hood" Robin is treated for an illness by his cousin, who is prioress of the convent at Kirklees. Robin's illness is not named; in my novel The Robin Hood Chronicles I assume that it was the Black Death, which killed hundreds of people in England in 1348.
Is Robin Hood a murderer?
I'm not sure if he can be considered a murderer, although he did kill a few people in his time. I prefer to think of Robin Hood as a medieval SWAT commando. He robed from the rich and fed the poor; when he killed people, it was because they stood for something he did not believe in. I think that he only killed people when it was necessary, and he had good reasoning for it, so I'm not sure if the title of "Murderer" would fit Robin Hood.
