The earliest know persons from Gallifrey (Due to "The Three Doctors",
"The Deadly Assasin" (sp?), "The Invasion of Time" and "Arc of Infinity")
seem to be Rassilon and Omega.  Now, the legend has it that Rassilon
contained the Eye of Harmony which gave the Time Lords their power of
Time Travel.  Apparently, Omega helped in that mission.  From what I
gathered from these four stories, there seems to be a division even
on Gallifrey as to which Time Lord is the First Time Lord.

Reason for last statement:  In "The Three Doctors", Doctor #3 states
that Omega was one of his childhood heros.  Most people on Gallifrey
talk of Rassilon as the greatest of the Time Lords.  Therefore, I
take the stand that neither should be considered greater or before
the other (Aren't I a wishy-washy sort? 8-) )

"The Deadly Assasin" will be on in a few weeks here.  I might change my
mind upon seeing it again.  I have very recently seen "The Three Doctors"
and "Arc of Infinity", so I am more familiar with Omega at the moment.
