As can be seen this document is contradictory regarding the relationship of Alix to the other donors.]

Thomas & his wife had two children:

1. JEAN de Lèves (-before 1292). “Thomas miles dominus Brueriarum et Leugarum” confirmed the donation of rights “de vinea sita in territorio de Felarvilla” made by “bone memorie...pater meus Goslenus” to Notre-Dame de Josaphat, with the consent of “uxor mea Agnes et Johannes primogenitus meus”, by charter dated 3 Jul 1248[113]. Seigneur de Bruyères-le-Châtel. “Jean de Bruyères chevalier” guaranteed the dowry granted to “Jeanne fille aînée de Guy de Lévis maréchal de Mirepoix chevalier” and “noble homme Mahieu seigneur de Montmorency chevalier” by charter dated Mar 1277[114]. A charter dated May 1279 records that "Guillermus dominus de Doleinvilla armiger" exchanged property with Vaux de Cernay for property donated by “felicis recordationis domini Thome quondam domini de Brueriis Castro et Agnetis eius uxoris”, with the consent of “Johannes dominus de Brueriis miles filius defunctorum domini Thome et Agnetis”[115]. “Jean de Bruyères chevalier seigneur de Puyvert” issued a charter dated to [16 Aug 1273/8 Sep 1299] “tant en son nom qu’en celui de madame Eustachie sa femme”[116]. m (before 1257) EUSTACHIE de Lévis, daughter of GUY [II] de Lévis Seigneur de Mirepoix & his wife (-21 Jan 1300).

Jean & his wife had children:

a) THOMAS de Bruyères (-[1 Aug 1342/29 Jan 1346]). Seigneur de Bruyères-le-Châtel.

- see below.

b) AGNES de Bruyères (-before 1329). According to Père Anselme, the wife of Renaud [II] de Dargies and Aubert [VI] Seigneur de Hangest was “Agnes de Bruyères...sœur de Thomas seigneur de Bruyères” but he cites no primary source which confirms his statement[119]. Richemond says that she was “fille de Jean de Bruyères et d’Eustachie de Lévis ou de Lesves, et veuve de Robert d’Argies” (no primary source cited)[120]. Her parentage is presumably based on the charter dated Jul 1319 which records that [her daughter] “J^ne d’Argiès, fille de Renaut d’Argiès, C^tsse de Soissons, veuve de Jⁿ de Clermont chev.” sold “la terre de Puyvert“ to “Thomas de Bruyères son oncle et à Isabeau de Melun sa femme”[121]. Carolus-Barré suggests a connection with the seigneurs de Châtillon-sur-Marne as her first husband called Gaucher de Châtillon [presumably identified as Gaucher [V] de Châtillon Comte de Porcéan who in 1295 was married to his first wife Isabelle de Dreux] “fratrem meum” in his second testament[122]. In contemporary sources “fratrem” can sometimes mean brother-in-law as well as brother, but is unlikely to indicate a more remote relationship. However, if Agnes had been a sister of Gaucher [V] she would have been related to her second husband by consanguinity, whereas the dispensation quoted below only refers to the affinity relationship between her two husbands. Other possible relationships are through Renaud [II]’s mother, as discussed above. The Papal dispensation for the marriage of “nobili viro Auberto de Hangesto milite” and “nobli muliere Agnete domina de Dargies”, because “quondam Reginaldus de Dargies olim vir predicte Agnetis” was related by 4^o affinity to “ipsi Auberto”, is dated 10 Jun 1302[123]. Agnes died before 1329 when her children by her second marriage sued her children by her first marriage for a share in her succession[124]. m firstly RENAUD [II] Seigneur de Dargies, son of RENAUD [I] Seigneur de Dargies & his [second wife ---] (-Saint-Sever [Aug/Sep] 1295). m secondly (Papal dispensation 10 Jun 1302) as his second wife, AUBERT [VI] Seigneur de Hangest, son of AUBERT [V] Seigneur de Hangest & his wife [Eléonore] de Villebéon (-[17 Aug 1328/1329], bur Genlis).

GAUTHIER de Villebéon (-[23/25] Oct 1205, bur Barbeaux abbey). This co-identity is affirmed in the compilation of the cartulary of Néronville, without stating the primary source on which it is based[147]. Richemond suggests that it provides the explanation for Gauthier’s brother Etienne being referred to as "La Chapelle" in primary sources[148]. Seigneur de Nemours. Great chamberlain of France.

1. --- (-bur Montmartre). "Galterius camerarius noster" records that "patris et matris sue" were buried at Montmartre when donating revenue to the abbey, recorded in a charter dated 1190 in which Philippe II King of France confirmed the donation[149]. m --- (-bur Montmartre).

a) ETIENNE [de la Chapelle-Gauthier] (Paris [1123]-12 or 20 Jan 1177, bur Paris Saint-Victor). Bishop of Meaux 1161. Archbishop of Bourges 1170.

This co-identity is also affirmed in the compilation of the cartulary of Néronville, without stating that it is based on any primary source[154]. According to Richemond, Gauthier probably inherited his fief of Villebéon, located near Nemours, from his mother, adding that it had been owned by the seigneurs de Chevry and enfeoffed by them to the sires du Bignon in the 12th century[155].

F. DONJON (CORBEIL)

Donjon was located in the commune of Soisy-sur-Etioles, canton de Corbeil, in the present-day French département of Essonne[156]. The modern name since 1934 is Soisy-sur-Seine[157]. Depoin suggests that the name “de Donjon” originated in this family because it was granted custody “du donjon de Corbeil” and not after Donjon in Soisy-sur-Etioles, which he suggests received the name because it was one of the family’s holdings[158]. Moutié dismisses this last hypothesis, which he says was first proposed by Père Anselme, as untenable given that the name of the family in Latin is “de Dongolio” or “de Donjungno”[159]. There appears to be no satisfactory of judging between these two contradictory theories. Whatever the truth of the position, different members of the Donjon family also used the names Beauvais and Corbeil, as shown below.

1. AIMON [I] de Donjon (-after [1080]). "Aymo de Donione" donated "molendino…Groetello" to Notre-Dame de Longpont by charter dated to [1080][160].

1. BAUDOUIN [I] de Corbeil (-after 1071). “...Balduini Corboliensis...” subscribed the charter dated 1071 under which "Buccardus…Corbolensium comes" donated property to the abbey of Saint-Spire de Corbeil[170]. A charter dated to [1137/52] recites the history of claims against Saint-Spire de Corbeil, corrected by “Johannem abbatem...patrem suum...Balduinum fratrem quoque eius Fredericum”, in the presence of "comes Buccardus" [Bouchard [II] Comte de Corbeil, so dated to 1071/80], witnessed by “...Hudo vicecomes, Balduinus filius, Fredericus, Balduinus nepos, Wido Frederici...”[171]. m ---.

The Scripta de Feodis of King Philippe II record “domini Guidonis et Petri de Donjone fratrum beati Guillermi Bituricensis quondam archiepiscopi” and their holdings, referring also to property which was “de dono domini Ferrici de Dongeone”[260]. [m firstly ---. No positive reference to this supposed first marriage has been found. However, it is suggested by the chronology of Ferry’s supposed daughter Helvise, as shown below.] [m [secondly] ---. No positive reference to this supposed second marriage has been found. However, it is suggested by the chronology of Ferry’s son Baudouin. Baudouin’s birth date is estimated very approximately to [1140/55] as shown below. The birth of Ferry’s supposed daughter Helvise is dated to [1125/35]. Assuming that Helvise was born in the later part of her range, and Baudouin in the earlier part of his, it is possible that the two were born from the same marriage. On the other hand, if Helvise was born in the earlier part of her range and Baudouin in the later part of his, it is unlikely that they could have shared the same mother. Another difficulty with the supposed marriages of Ferry [I] is presented by the birth date of his son Pierre, estimated to [1145/50] as shown below. If there were no other indications, this would suggest that Pierre (and presumably also his brother Guy) was the full brother of Baudouin, born from the same mother. However, Ferry’s known wife [Moenée] married secondly after the death of her first husband (in [1182]) and had at least one more son by her second husband. The various sources quoted below indicate that that son was the brother of Baudouin, Guy and Pierre. If the three brothers were born from Ferry’s marriage to Moenée, she would have been old to have given birth to another child after [1182]; if Moenée was not the mother of any of Ferry’s children, it is difficult to understand how her son by her second marriage could have been described as the brother of Ferry’s children. m [thirdly] as her first husband, [MOENEE], daughter of ---. She married secondly --- de Berruier. Indications of her two marriages are provided by the Scripta de Feodis of King Philippe II which record “domini Guidonis et Petri de Donjone fratrum beati Guillermi Bituricensis quondam archiepiscopi” and their holdings”[261]. This is corroborated by the Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines which names "domina de Monte-Argisi fuit soror vel neptis illius [=Guilelmus…archiepiscopus Bituricensis]" as the wife of "Petro de Cortenaio regis Philippi patruo"[262]. Her name is confirmed only by Gallia Christiana which states that [her son by her second marriage Guillaume Archbishop of Bourges] “Guillelmus Archesiis vico Nivernensis pagi natus ex illustri genere” had “matrem...Maeniam” who had “frater Guillelmus archidiaconus Suessionensis...dictus...Eremita” who educated him[263]. No primary source is cited, so the reliability of the name cannot be judged. Kerrebrouck refers to her as “Moenée d’Arthel”, citing an article by Estournet, but it is unlikely that this is correct[264]. Arthel is a small commune situated in canton Prémery, arrondissement Cosne-Cours.sur-Loire, département Nièvre. No other contemporary reference to a family “d’Arthel” has been found. Various websites refer to “Saint Guillaume d’Arthel” being born there, without providing any further details about his life[265]. It is assumed that this refers to Guillaume Berruier Archbishop of Bourges, sometimes known as “Saint Guillaume de Bourges”. If that is correct, the village may have been the home of the Berruier family, but no other indication has been found that their name was in fact “d’Arthel”. Ferry [II] & his [first] wife had one child:

i) [HELVISE de Donjon ([1120/25]-[after 1155?]). The identification of the family origin of the wife of “French Renaud” appears to be based only on the Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines, which records that "domina de Monte-Argisi fuit soror vel neptis illius [=Guilelmus…archiepiscopus Bituricensis]" and names her as the wife of "Petro de Cortenaio regis Philippi patruo"[266], assuming for the moment that “neptis” described the relationship not “soror”. Guillaume Archbishop of Bourges is often referred to in secondary sources as "Guillaume de Donjon", although this name is not used in his Vita[267], but he appears to have belonged to the Berruier family: La Saussaye, in his early 17th century work on the bishops of Orléans names "Geraldus Berruyerius, frater beati Gulielmi Bituricensis archiepiscopi" as the father of Philippe Berruier who was bishop of Orléans from 1221 to 1236, citing “Historia Ecclesiæ Bituricensis” (a work which has not been identified)[268]. The primary source which confirms beyond doubt that the archbishop was the full brother of Gérard Berruier has not been identified. Bouchet says that “on apprend de quelques chartes que [Renaud] épousa la sœur de Guy du Donjon”, but he does not cite the charters in question although he says in a later passage that she “vivoit l’an 1148 et 1155”, presumably indicating the dates of two of the charters[269]. The Scripta de Feodis records the holdings of “domini Guidonis et Petri de Donjone fratrum beati Guillermi Bituricensis quondam archiepiscopi” and their holdings”[270], clearly showing that the archbishop was the brother of Guy and Pierre de Donjon. Reading all these documents together, we can identify a list of brothers and sisters: [Hawise] wife of Renaud de Courtenay (born [1120/25]), Guy de Donjon, Pierre de Donjon (born [1145/50]), Guillaume Archbishop of Bourges, Gérard Berruier. Clearly all five could not have shared the same mother and father. The suggested explanation is that Ferry [I] de Donjon was the father of Renaud de Courtenay’s wife by a first marriage, and the father of Guy and Pierre de Donjon by a second marriage; after he died (date maybe estimated to after 1174), his widow married secondly the father of Gerard Berruier. The precise identification of the father of Archbishop Guillaume (Ferry [I] de Donjon or --- Berruier?) is not necessary for the purposes of this explanation. A continuing close family connection between the Donjon and Courtenay families is indicated by (among other documents) the charter dated Nov 1217 under which “Gui du Donjon chevalier” guaranteed the loyalty of “Robert de Courtenai” to the king[271]. French Renaud’s wife is named “Helvise” in Europäische Stammtafeln[272], but the primary source on which this name is based has not been identified. m ([1135/40]) as his first wife, RENAUD Seigneur de Courtenay , son of MILON Seigneur de Courtenay & his second wife Elisabeth de Nevers ([1105/20]-[27 Sep 1194]).]

Ferry & his [second/third] wife had one child:

ii) BAUDOUIN de Donjon ([1140/55]-[22 Jan 1205/06]). His parentage is confirmed by Gallia Christiana which states that [his stepbrother, Guillaume Archbishop of Bourges] “Guillelmus de Donjeon ex comitibus Nivernensis oriundus, Mathildis comitissæ Nivernensis dominæ Donziaci avunculus (forte patruus)” had “fratrem...Baldudinum de Hiere” who donated property to “Sacro-Portui seu Barbello Cisterciensis ordinis...monasterio” when leaving for Jerusalem with the consent of “A. uxore et I & Ferrico filiis”, and that he also had “duos alios...fratres...ex reg. cameræ computorum Paris. Guidonem et Petrum de Dijon (Donjeon)”, but cites no primary source on which this information is based[273]. Du Bouchet, presumably referring to the same donation, states that “Baudouin du Donjon” donated property to Barbeaux abbey on leaving on pilgrimage, with the consent of his wife “Amicie de Chastillon...de Jean et Ferry ses enfans et de Guillaume son frere Archevesque de Bourges” by charter dated 1203[274]. His birth date range is estimated very approximately from the date of his marriage, especially for the purpose of elucidating the difficulties connected with his father’s probable marriages, as shown above. m ([1175/80]) as her first husband, AMICIE de Breteuil, daughter of VALERAN [III] Seigneur de Breteuil & his second wife Alix de Dreux ([1157/62]-[Sep/Oct] 1226). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "comitissam Clarimontis Belvacensis et uxorem Symonis Clarimontis et Emiciam" as the three daughters of "Alaydis [filia comitem de Brana Robertum domnum]" & her first husband[275]. Other sources indicate that Valéran’s first wife was the mother of the two older daughters. However, the charter dated Mar 1201, under which "Gaucherus de Castellione dominus de Mongai" [identified as Gaucher [III] de Châtillon, future comte de Saint-Pol, son of Alix de Dreux by her second marriage] confirmed a donation to Saint-Denis by “sororio meo Balduino de Donion et...sorori meæ Amiciæ” by charter dated Mar 1201[276], indicates that Amicie was Alix’s daughter. One difficulty is presented by the charter dated Jul 1223, quoted below, which confirms that Amicie inherited the seigneurie de Blanc-Fossé from Manassès de Bulles her “avunculus”. "Balduinus de Dongione et...Amicia uxor eius" donated property “quod dominus Gaucherius de Castillione feodum” to Saint-Denis by charter dated Mar 1201[277]. Gallia Christiana states that “Guillelmus de Donjeon ex comitibus Nivernensis oriundus, Mathildis comitissæ Nivernensis dominæ Donziaci avunculus (forte patruus)” had “fratrem...Baldudinum de Hiere” who donated property to “Sacro-Portui seu Barbello Cisterciensis ordinis...monasterio” when leaving for Jerusalem with the consent of “A. uxore et I & Ferrico filiis”, but cites no primary source on which this information is based[278]. Du Bouchet, presumably referring to the same donation, states that “Baudouin du Donjon” donated property to Barbeaux abbey on leaving on pilgrimage, with the consent of his wife “Amicie de Chastillon...de Jean et Ferry ses enfans et de Guillaume son frere Archevesque de Bourges” by charter dated 1203[279]. She married secondly Jean Briard Seigneur de Villiers. “Amicia uxor quondam Baudoini de Donjun” donated “censu meo...apud Domnum Martinum” to Chaalis, with the consent of “Dni Johannis Briardi presentis viri mei”, by charter dated 1213[280]. “Symon de Pissyaco [...et Agnes uxor mea] et...Johannes Briart [...et Amitia uxor mea]” confirmed a donation to Vaux de Cernay by charter dated 1214[281]. She succeeded her great nephew Thibaut VI Comte de Blois as Dame de Breteuil in 1218. Dame de Catheux. “Amicia domina Britulii” confirmed the donation made by “dominus Manasserus de Bullis avunculus meus, de Albo Fossato dominus, ad ultimum vite sue”, adding that she was “in hereditate dicti Manasseri, avunculi mei, jure hereditario”, by charter dated Jul 1223[282]. She married thirdly (before Aug 1225) Gauthier de Reynel. A charter dated Aug 1225 records an agreement between the bishop of Beauvais and “Galterus de Risnel dominus Brituliensis et Amicia uxor mea domina Brituliensis”[283]. Baudouin & his wife had [five or more] children:

(1) [JEAN] de Donjon . Gallia Christiana states that “Guillelmus de Donjeon ex comitibus Nivernensis oriundus, Mathildis comitissæ Nivernensis dominæ Donziaci avunculus (forte patruus)” had “fratrem...Baldudinum de Hiere” who donated property to “Sacro-Portui seu Barbello Cisterciensis ordinis...monasterio” when leaving for Jerusalem with the consent of “A. uxore et I & Ferrico filiis”, but cites no primary source on which this information is based[284]. There is no indication of the name of which “I” was the abbreviation. However, it should be born in mind that “I” could have been “J” in Latin, maybe representing “Iohannes” or Jean. Du Bouchet, presumably referring to the same donation, states that “Baudouin du Donjon” donated property to Barbeaux abbey on leaving on pilgrimage, with the consent of his wife “Amicie de Chastillon...de Jean et Ferry ses enfans et de Guillaume son frere Archevesque de Bourges” by charter dated 1203[285].

(2) FERRY de Donjon . Gallia Christiana states that “Guillelmus de Donjeon ex comitibus Nivernensis oriundus, Mathildis comitissæ Nivernensis dominæ Donziaci avunculus (forte patruus)” had “fratrem...Baldudinum de Hiere” who donated property to “Sacro-Portui seu Barbello Cisterciensis ordinis...monasterio” when leaving for Jerusalem with the consent of “A. uxore et I & Ferrico filiis”, but cites no primary source on which this information is based[286]. Du Bouchet, presumably referring to the same donation, states that “Baudouin du Donjon” donated property to Barbeaux abbey on leaving on pilgrimage, with the consent of his wife “Amicie de Chastillon...de Jean et Ferry ses enfans et de Guillaume son frere Archevesque de Bourges” by charter dated 1203[287].

(3) [other son(s) . “Amicia domina Bretolii” confirmed donations of harvest at Breteuil to the church of Saint-Just for the souls of “ses fils et de ses filles, de ses frères et sœurs” by charter dated 1221[288]. The chronology dictates that all Amicie’s children were born from her marriage to Baudouin de Donjon, or possibly from an earlier otherwise unrecorded marriage. It is not known whether there were other sons besides “I”, Ferry and Guillaume.]

(4) daughters . “Amicia domina Bretolii” confirmed donations of harvest at Breteuil to the church of Saint-Just for the souls of “ses fils et de ses filles, de ses frères et sœurs” by charter dated 1221[289]. The chronology dictates that all Amicie’s children were born from her marriage to Baudouin de Donjon, or possibly from an earlier otherwise unrecorded marriage.

(5) GUILLAUME de Donjon (-[Jun 1221/1226]). “Amicie dame de Breteuil” donated “une rente de cent livres sur le péage de Francastel” to “son fils Guillaume de Donjon frère et chevalier de l’hôpital de Jerusalem” and the knights by charter dated Jun 1221[290]. Knight Hospitaller. It is assumed that Guillaume predeceased his mother as there is no indication that he inherited either the seigneurie de Breteuil or the seigneurie de Blanc-Fossé from her, unless he was excluded from the inheritance by reason of his membership of the knights hospitallers.

Ferry & his [third] wife had two children:

iii) GUY de Donjon (-after Nov 1217). Gallia Christiana states that “Guillelmus de Donjeon ex comitibus Nivernensis oriundus, Mathildis comitissæ Nivernensis dominæ Donziaci avunculus (forte patruus)” had “fratrem...Baldudinum de Hiere” who donated property to “Sacro-Portui seu Barbello Cisterciensis ordinis...monasterio” when leaving for Jerusalem with the consent of “A. uxore et I & Ferrico filiis”, and that he also had “duos alios...fratres...ex reg. cameræ computorum Paris. Guidonem et Petrum de Dijon (Donjeon)”, but cites no primary source on which this information is based[291]. "Petrus del Donjon et Guido frater meus et filii mei Johannes et Petrus milites" donated property to Notre-Dame des Vaux de Cernay by charter dated 1214[292]. The Scripta de Feodis of King Philippe II record “domini Guidonis et Petri de Donjone fratrum beati Guillermi Bituricensis quondam archiepiscopi” and their holdings[293]. “Gui du Donjon chevalier” guaranteed the loyalty of “Robert de Courtenai” to the king by charter dated Nov 1217[294]. The identity of “Robert de Courtenai” is not specified in this document. The charter dated Jun 1223, quoted below, suggests that he may have been Robert de Courtenay, future Emperor of Constantinople, who, as discussed further in CONSTANTINOPLE LATIN EMPIRE, is the more likely identification of “dominum...Robertum de Courtenay” in that document and probably succeeded as seigneur de Courtenay when his older brother Philippe was appointed regent of Namur in 1217. [m ---. The name of Guy’s wife is not known. Guy & his wife had one child:]

(1) [GUY de Donjon (-after Jun 1223). “Philippus marchio Namurcii” swore allegiance to Philippe II King of France, with “dominum...Robertum de Courtenay...Dom. Petrum de Donjone et Iohannem et Petrum filios eius...et Guidonem de Donjone et Ferricum ac Guillelmum filios eius” acting as guarantors in specified sums, by charter dated Jun 1223[295]. The order of the names in this document suggests that Guy de Donjon was junior in some way to Pierre de Donjon. In all other sources which name the brothers Guy and Pierre de Donjon, Guy is named first. This reversing of the name order suggests that Guy who is named in 1223 was not the same person as Guy, brother of Pierre. Maybe he was the son of the older Guy.] m ---. The name of Guy’s wife is not known. Guy & his wife had two children:

(a) FERRY de Donjon (-after Jun 1223). “Philippus marchio Namurcii” swore allegiance to Philippe II King of France, with “dominum...Robertum de Courtenay...Dom. Petrum de Donjone et Iohannem et Petrum filios eius...et Guidonem de Donjone et Ferricum ac Guillelmum filios eius” acting as guarantors in specified sums, by charter dated Jun 1223[296].

(b) GUILLAUME de Donjon (-after Jun 1223). “Philippus marchio Namurcii” swore allegiance to Philippe II King of France, with “dominum...Robertum de Courtenay...Dom. Petrum de Donjone et Iohannem et Petrum filios eius...et Guidonem de Donjone et Ferricum ac Guillelmum filios eius” acting as guarantors in specified sums, by charter dated Jun 1223[297].

iv) PIERRE de Donjon ([1145/50]-1 Apr, after Feb 1226). "Petrus de Donjungno" donated property to Beaulieu leprosery, with the consent of "sa femme Giroia et de ses fils Baudricus, Amauricus, Petrus clericus, Gillbertus et Joannes", by charter dated 1179[298]. Pierre’s birth date is estimated on the basis of his being married with five children who were old enough to be named in the 1179 charter, while bearing in mind his still being named in the charter dated 1225. A charter dated 1197 records the agreement between Notre-Dame de Paris and "Petrum de Donjon" concerning "terrarum de Virsi" which had been donated “anniversarium Frederici de Donjon”[299].

PIERRE de Donjon, son of FERRY de Donjon & his wife --- ([1145/50]-1 Apr, after Feb 1226). Gallia Christiana states that “Guillelmus de Donjeon ex comitibus Nivernensis oriundus, Mathildis comitissæ Nivernensis dominæ Donziaci avunculus (forte patruus)” had “fratrem...Baldudinum de Hiere” who donated property to “Sacro-Portui seu Barbello Cisterciensis ordinis...monasterio” when leaving for Jerusalem with the consent of “A. uxore et I & Ferrico filiis”, and that he also had “duos alios...fratres...ex reg. cameræ computorum Paris. Guidonem et Petrum de Dijon (Donjeon)”, but cites no primary source on which this information is based[300].

Louis VI King of France confirmed that “Fredericus frater Johannis” relinquished rights “in villa...Hermentarvilla”, donated to Saint-Jean-en-Vallée by “Paganus Anselli filius...Johannes filius eius” by charter dated 1132, with the consent of “Balduinus de Corbolio qui filiam Johannis receperat”[334]. "Domnus Johannes filius Pagani de Stampis et Eustachia uxor eius ac Fredericus filius Eustachie" confirmed the donation of "decimam de Ivri" made to Notre-Dame de Longpont by "Galterius Tyrellus" on leaving for Jerusalem by charter dated to [1140], witnessed by “...Heinricus frater Balduini de Corboylo...”[335]. m ([before 1120]) as her second husband, EUSTACHIE, widow of BAUDOUIN de Beauvais, daughter of FERRY & his wife Comtesse --- (-after [1140]). "Fredericus de Castellonio", while en route to Jerusalem, required "Comitisse uxori sue" to donate property to Notre-Dame de Longpont, with the consent of "Eustachia filia Frederici qui fuit uxor Balduini de Belvaco", by charter dated to [1120][336]. As her daughter by her second husband was named as married in 1132, Eustachie’ must have married secondly before 1120. “Johannis de Stampis filius Pagani...hoc idem fratres sui Anselmus et Gaufridus et cognati sui Menerius et Guido” donated rights “in villa...Hermentarvilla” to Saint-Jean-en-Vallée, with the consent of “uxor prenominati Johnnis Eustachia et frater eius Fredericus et filia eius Avelina” by charter dated to [1123/28], witnessed by “...Fredericus prefate Eustachie filius”[337].

1. [JEAN d’Etampes ). Seigneur d’Etampes et de Corbeil. m [EUSTACHIE de France, daughter of PHILIPPE I King of France & his second wife Bertrade de Montfort ([1095/1100]-[1143]). She and her husband are named by Kerrebrouck who cites no primary source on which the information is based[345]. Presumably this is based on Sainte-Marthe who states that “Eustache comtesse d’Estampes et de Corbeil, femme de Jean d’Estampes” is named “sœur du Roy Louys le Gros” by “Jacques du Breuil religieux de sainct Germain des Prez les Paris”, adding that the latter records that she founded the abbey of “Hierre” [Kerrebrouck says “Yerres”[346]] where she was buried[347]. Sainte-Marthe also says that “c’est d’elle que semble parler Nangis disant que le Roy Philippe I eut de Bertrade de Montfort deux fils et une fille qu’il nomme Comtesse d’Etampes”. “Nangis” has not been identified: the Chronicle of Guillaume de Nangis starts in 1113 during the reign of Louis VI King of France. Eustachie is not named by Père Anselme among the children of King Philippe I[348]. Could there be confusion with Eustachie, daughter of Ferry, whose second husband was Jean d’Etampes (see above)?.]

H. VICOMTES de MELUN

Information in primary sources relating to the early vicomtes de Melun is sparse. Père Anselme purports to reconstruct family relationships between some of the individuals who are named below, in some cases in direct contradiction with the primary source information which is quoted here, but provides no basis for his statements[349]. Until further information comes to light, it is suggested that his reconstruction should be viewed with caution.

1. JOSCELIN (-after 1 Mar 1006). Vicomte de Melun. Père Anselme records that "Joscelin I…vicomte de Melun" donated "le village de Noisy le sec" to Saint-Maur-des-Fossés abbey in 998, but gives no citation for the corresponding primary source[350]. "Ansoaldi Divitis Parisii, Frederici, Roberti vicecomitis, Nanterii et Joscelmi eius filiorum…Joscelini Miliduni vicecomitis" witnessed the charter dated 1 Mar 1006 under which "Burchardus…castri comes Curboili…cum filio meo Rainoldi…Parisiensium episcopo" [Bouchard Comte de Corbeil] authorised donations to the abbey of Saint-Maur-des-Fossés[351]. This charter suggests a family relationship, as yet untraced, with Robert [II] Vicomte de Blois (see CENTRAL FRANCE). His name also suggests a relationship with the family of the Seigneurs de Courtenay (see CHAMPAGNE NOBILITY).

2. ADAM de Melun (-after [1031/32]). “Henrici regis, Adam Meledunensis, Alberti filii Rainaldi vicedomni...” subscribed the charter dated to [1031/32] under which “Odo comes” [Eudes II Comte de Blois] restored “ecclesiam...[in pago] Blesiasensi...Chilziacus” [Chouzy] to Marmoutier[352].

1. URSON (-[1085/94]). Vicomte de Melun. "…Ursio vicecomes Meliduni…" witnessed the charter dated 29 May 1067 under which Philippe I King of France confirmed the possessions of Saint-Martin-des-Champs[353]. Père Anselme records that "Urson I…vicomte de Melun" donated "un beau reliquaire à l’abbaye de S. Aubert de Cambray" and "est nommé dans une charte de l’abbaye de Ferrieres" dated 1070, but gives no citation for the corresponding primary sources[354]. "Urso Milidunensis vicecomes atque sua uxor" acknowledged that they had no rights in land of Saint-Maur-les-Fossés by charter dated 1085, the same document recording that "vicecomes Adam" claimed these rights of his predecessor "cuius filiam in conjugium habebat" and from whom he inherited the viscomté dated 1138, the latter witnessed by "Matheus de Monmorenci, Milo de Cortenai...Fredericus de Corboilo…"[355]. m --- (-after 1085). The name of Urson’s wife is not known. Urson & his wife had [one child]:

a) [MATHILDE . "Adam de Chaalli…et uxor sua Mahaldis et filius eius Gilo" donated "terram de Fontanis" to Néronville, with the consent of "Joscelinus vicecomes Meleduni et Adam frater eius, nepotes memorati Ade", by undated charter[356]. Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by a charter, which records firstly that "Urso Milidunensis vicecomes atque sua uxor" acknowledged that they had no rights in land of Saint-Maur-les-Fossés dated 1085, and that "vicecomes Adam" claimed these rights of his predecessor "cuius filiam in conjugium habebat" and from whom he inherited the viscomté dated 1138[357]. The document does not specify that Urson was the predecessor of Adam, and therefore father of Adam’s wife, but this is suggested. The chronology of the family also suggests that a connection with Urson may be correct. m ([1080/90]) as his first wife, ADAM de Chailly, son of ETIENNE & his wife --- ([1060/65]-after [1140]). Vicomte de Melun, de iure uxoris.]

1. GUILLAUME "Carpentarius" (-after 1102). Vicomte de Melun. Philippe I King of France confirmed the privileges of Melun Saint-Père by charter dated 1094, the dating clause of which records "Willermo tunc Milidunensi vicecomite"[358]. Albert of Aix records that "Hugo, Drogo, Willelmus Carpentarius et Clareboldus" joined the army of Godefroi de Bouillon after their release from captivity in Constantinople, dated to end 1096[359]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records that "Guilelmus Carpentarius et Petrus heremita" fled from the siege of Antioch in 1098, adding that "Guilelmus iste fuit vicecomes Meleduni consanguineus Hugonis Magni"[360]. This family relationship has not been traced. Albert of Aix records that "Willelmus Carpentarius, Willelmusque alter, quondam familiaris et domesticus imperatoris Constantinopolis, qui et sororem Boemundi principis Siciliæ uxorem duxerat", escaped "out of fear" from Antioch to Alexandretta, believing that the crusading army was doomed after it was besieged by Kerbogha atabeg of Mosul, dated to mid-1098 from the context[361]. "Guilielmus Carpenter…" subscribed a charter dated 1101 under which "Tancredus princeps" granted land "Solini" to "consulibus Januensium"[362]. Albert of Aix records "Willelmus Carpentarius" among those who favoured the restoration of Patriarch Dagobert, dated to 1102 from the context[363].

2. GAUTHIER "Paganus" de Melun . "Paganus appellatus a baptimismate Walterus" and "uxor eius a baptismate Hodierna, comitisse nuncupata" donated property to Saint-Martin-des-Champs by charter dated [13 Apr/14 Jul] 1096[364]. m HODIERNA "Comitissa", daughter of ---. "Paganus appellatus a baptimismate Walterus" and "uxor eius a baptismate Hodierna, comitisse nuncupata" donated property to Saint-Martin-des-Champs by charter dated [13 Apr/14 Jul] 1096[365].

I. VICOMTES de MELUN (CHAILLY)

The involvement of the following family with the priory of Néronville suggests an origin in the viscomté of Château-Landon (see CENTRAL FRANCE NOBILITY) in which the priory was located. Adam, son of Etienne, is named "Adam de Chailly" in later primary sources. Chailly is identified as "Chailly-en-Bière, canton sud de Melun" by Henri Stein, editor of the Néronville cartulary[366]. If this is correct, it is therefore probable that it was one of the properties which was inherited by Adam through his wife who, as noted below, is recorded as the daughter and heiress of one of the earlier vicomtes de Melun.

1. ETIENNE (-after [1090]). It is possible that Etienne, father of Adam de Chailly, was either Etienne son of Helduin or Etienne son of Joscelin, both of whom are named in a charter dated to [1090] which records that "Roscelinus de Monsterollo atque Stephanus filius Heldoini et Hersendis uxor eius…Stephanus filius Goscelini et uxor eius Hersendis" consented to the donation of property to Néronville made by "miles…Dimo"[367]. It is assumed that "Stephanus filius Heldoini" and "Stephanus filius Goscelini" were two different individuals, rather than the same person whose father is misnamed in one of the two entries in this document. If that is correct, it is probable that "Stephanus filius Heldoini" was the father of Adam de Chailly, because another charter, dated to [1100/10] records "…Goscelini Infans, filius Stephani" as consenting to another donation to Néronville[368]. It is unlikely that the father of "Goscelini Infans" was the same person as the father of the brothers Adam and Gauthier who are named below, as no other record has been found of their having a brother named Joscelin. It is therefore assumed that "Goscelini Infans" was the son of "Stephanus filius Goscelini", named after his paternal grandfather, leaving "Stephanus filius Heldoini" as the father of Adam and Gauthier. It is probable that the two persons named Etienne in the [1090] charter were closely related, maybe first cousins. Presumably based on the various primary source entries which are quoted in this section, Burke’s Peerage shows "Etienne de Courtenay", son of Joscelin [I] Seigneur de Courtenay and his first wife (see CHAMPAGNE NOBILITY), as the father of "Adam de Chailly"[369]. There are two major difficulties with this supposed parentage proposed by Burke’s. Firstly, if Etienne had been an older son of Joscelin [I], he would have inherited the seigneurie de Courtenay in place of his supposed younger brother Milon de Courtenay. Secondly, as noted below, "Adam filius Stephani" is first named in a document dated to [1085], which places his birth in [1060/65] bearing in mind that he is named in other documents until 1141. This means that Adam could not have been the grandson of Joscelin [I] de Courtenay. As discussed more fully under the entry for Etienne’s wife, it is more likely that the relationship between Adam de Chailly and the Courtenay family was through Adam’s mother. m (before [1060/65]) [HERSENDE], daughter of [ATHON] [Châtelain de Châteaurenard] & his wife ---. As the mother of "Adam", her parentage and marriage are suggested by the charter dated to [1116/18] which records that "Robertus Bonet" became a monk at Néronville priory and donated "terram quam habebat a Sed ultra flumen Feure (aliàs Fuhure)" with the consent of "Milo de Curtiniaco et Adam nepos eius, de quorum beneficio erat…Fulco vicecomes [Foulques Vicomte de Château-Landon] de cujus beneficio erat…Garnerius frater Ade et uxor eius Ulgesendis cum filiis suis Herveo et Adam de quorum beneficio erat"[370]. "Adam nepos eius" can be identified as "Adam filius Stephani" who is named in the charters of Néronville which are quoted below, and as Adam de Chailly who was ancestor of later vicomtes de Melun. Presumably based on these various data points, Burke’s Peerage shows "Etienne de Courtenay" as the son of Joscelin [I] Seigneur de Courtenay and his first wife, and as the father of "Adam de Chailly"[371]. As noted above, this proposed parentage appears impossible. Another more likely possibility is that the relationship was based on a family connection in the previous generation, possibly through an otherwise unrecorded sister of Joscelin [I] de Courtenay who married the father of Adam de Chailly. Bearing in mind the notorious difficulty of translating the word nepos, it is certainly possible that it indicates a relationship more remote than "nephew" in the [1116/18] document. The presence of the names of Milon de Courtenay and "Adam nepos eius" in the [1116/18] charter could be explained if the property which was the subject of the donation had been part of the dowry of Adam’s mother, and was then held by her son Adam as vassal of the seigneurs de Courtenay of whom Milon was then the senior representative. Another possible explanation of the relationship between Milon and Adam is that it was through the family of Milon de Courtenay’s mother. In any event, it is possible that Adam de Chailly’s mother was named Hersende. This is suggested by the charter dated [1090] which records that "Roscelinus de Monsterollo atque Stephanus filius Heldoini et Hersendis uxor eius…Stephanus filius Goscelini et uxor eius Hersendis" consented to donations of properties to Néronville made by "miles…Dimo"[372]. The question of the identity of these two individuals named Etienne is discussed more fully above in relation to [Hersende]’s husband, a debate which is irrelevant when considering the question of [Hersende]’s name as the wives of both persons (assuming that they were two different individuals) were named Hersende. This possible name of Adam de Chailly’s mother appears corroborated by Burke’s Peerage, in its highly suspect summary of the early generations of the Courtenay family, which names "Hersent de Montereau" as Adam’s mother[373]. As with all data in Burke’s, no information is given on the primary source on which the statement is based. Etienne & his wife had two children:

a) ADAM ([1060/65]-after 1141). His birth date is estimated from his first mention which is dated to [1085], and is also consistent with his having grandsons who had already reached the age of majority before the death of his son Gillon (estimated to before [1140]). "Hauvinus frater Garmundi et Adam filius Stephani…de quorum feudo erat" consented to the donation of revenue from the church of Chevannes to Néronville made by "miles…Fulco Faicus" by charter dated to [1085][374]. "Hauvinus frater Garmundi et Adam filius Stephani…et Garnerius frater Adami, de corum beneficio erant" consented to the donation of revenue from the chapel of Notre-Dame de Souppes to Néronville made by "Fulco Faicus" by charter dated to [1090][375]. "Fulcone vicecomite, Adam filio Stephani, Gilone filius eius…" witnessed the charter dated to [1100/10] under which "Lucia uxor Rainardi Pulcri et Amalricus filius eius et Agnes filia eius" donated property to the priory of Néronville[376]. His family connection with the Courtenay family is indicated by the charter dated to [1116/18] which records that "Robertus Bonet" became a monk at Néronville and donated "terram quam habebat a Sed ultra flumen Feure (aliàs Fuhure)" with the consent of "Milo de Curtiniaco et Adam nepos eius, de quorum beneficio erat…Fulco vicecomes [Foulques Vicomte de Château-Landon] de cujus beneficio erat…Garnerius frater Ade et uxor eius Ulgesendis cum filiis suis Herveo et Adam de quorum beneficio erat"[377]. "Adam filius Stephani, Garnerius frater eius…" witnessed the charter dated to [1122/42] under which "miles Aubericus Forestarius" donated "molendinum…in alodio apud…Nosent" to Néronville[378]. "Adam de Chaalli…et uxor sua Mahaldis et filius eius Gilo" donated "terram de Fontanis" to Néronville, with the consent of "Joscelinus vicecomes Meleduni et Adam frater eius, nepotes memorati Ade", by undated charter[379]. "Adam de Choally" donated "tres hospites in villa…Nemos" to Sauve-Majeur, for the soul of "Gilonis filii mei, qui in cemeterio Neronis Ville sepultus est", by undated charter[380]. Vicomte de Melun, de iure uxoris. A charter records firstly that "Urso Milidunensis vicecomes atque sua uxor" acknowledged that they had no rights in land of Saint-Maur-les-Fossés dated 1085, and that "vicecomes Adam" claimed these rights of his predecessor "cuius filiam in conjugium habebat" and from whom he inherited the viscomté dated 1138[381]. "Dominus Adam de Cali, filius Stephani" donated property to the priory of Néronville, for the soul of "Gilonis filii sui", together with "duo nepotes eius Jocelinus et Adam, filii Gilonis, et Maheldis uxor Gilonis", by charter dated to [1140], confirmed by Louis VII King of France by charter dated 1141[382]. Louis VII King of France confirmed the donation of "decem solidos…in pedagio de Saya" made to Saint-Pierre de Néronville by "Adam de Calliaco", for the soul of "filii sui Gilonis", by charter dated 1141[383]. Louis VII granted protection to Saint-Pierre de Melun, with the support of "Adam tunc vice-comite Meleduni", by charter dated 1141[384]. m firstly ([1080/90]) MATHILDE de Melun, daughter of [URSON] Vicomte de Melun & his wife ---. "Adam de Chaalli…et uxor sua Mahaldis et filius eius Gilo" donated "terram de Fontanis" to Néronville, with the consent of "Joscelinus vicecomes Meleduni et Adam frater eius, nepotes memorati Ade", by undated charter[385]. Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by a charter, which records firstly that "Urso Milidunensis vicecomes atque sua uxor" acknowledged that they had no rights in land of Saint-Maur-les-Fossés dated 1085, and that "vicecomes Adam" claimed these rights of his predecessor "cuius filiam in conjugium habebat" and from whom he inherited the viscomté dated 1138[386]. The document does not specify that Urson was the predecessor of Adam, and therefore father of Adam’s wife, but this is suggested. The chronology of the family also suggests that a connection with Urson may be correct. m secondly AVELINE, daughter of ---. “Adam de Challiaco...et Avelina eius Ade sponsa” consented to the donation to Yerres made by “Odo Briardus”, in the presence of “Eustachia Frederici mater”, by undated charter, witnessed by “...Fredericus de Donjonio, Terricus filius Ade de Challiaco...”[387]. According to Burke’s Peerage, Adam married secondly Aveline de Corbeil dame de Yerres, daughter of Baudouin de Corbeil, without citing the primary source on which the information is based[388].] Adam & his first wife had one child:

i) GILLES de Chailly (-before [1140]). "Fulcone vicecomite, Adam filio Stephani, Gilone filius eius…" witnessed the charter dated to [1100/10] under which "Lucia uxor Rainardi Pulcri et Amalricus filius eius et Agnes filia eius" donated property to the priory of Néronville[389].

a) [ADAM de Melun (-[1189/92]). “Maria Trecensis comitissa” settled a dispute between the chapter of Saint-Quiriace de Provins and “heredes Mathei quondam Trecensis episcopi...Petrus Desmares et Petrus frater eius, pueri defuncti Drogonis Bristaudi, Adam de Meleduno et Heluisa uxor eius, et filii defuncti Petri Bristaudi” by charter dated 1184[408]. “Adam de Meludino advocatus terre Sancti Dyonisii de Grandi puteo et de terra Sancti Audoeni” and ”Helvisa sponsa predicti Ade assensu filiorum nostrorum et filiarum nostrarum...Henrici, Drogonis, Marie, Gilonis, Luciane” confirmed the customs of the lands, as during the time of “Petri de Corteriaco et...Petri Bristaudi”, by charter dated 1189[409].] m ([1179/84]) as her second husband, HELOISE de Nangis Dame de Nangis, widow of PIERRE de Britaud, daughter of [GUY [de Marolles] & his wife Isabelle Dame de Nangis] (-after 1201). Louis VII King of France confirmed that “Petrus Bristaudus et Helvisa uxor eius” donated property “in exarto Nanterii et circa Villam Framos” to the church of Saint-Port by charter dated 1173[410]. The primary source which confirms her parentage has not been identified. However, it is suggested by her first husband inheriting Nangis. Her second marriage is indicated by the charter dated 1184 under which “Maria Trecensis comitissa” settled a dispute between the chapter of Saint-Quiriace de Provins and “heredes Mathei quondam Trecensis episcopi...Petrus Desmares et Petrus frater eius, pueri defuncti Drogonis Bristaudi, Adam de Meleduno et Heluisa uxor eius, et filii defuncti Petri Bristaudi”[411]. “Adam de Meludino advocatus terre Sancti Dyonisii de Grandi puteo et de terra Sancti Audoeni” and ”Helvisa sponsa predicti Ade assensu filiorum nostrorum et filiarum nostrarum...Henrici, Drogonis, Marie, Gilonis, Luciane” confirmed the customs of the lands, as during the time of “Petri de Corteriaco et...Petri Bristaudi”, by charter dated 1189[412]. The unusual wording of this document suggests that Heloise’s children were all born from her first marriage. “Maria Trecensis comitissa” confirmed the donation of property to the Templars at Provins made by “Henricus Bristaudus, Helvisa matre sua concedente”, for the soul of “patris sui Petri Bristaudi”, with the consent of “fratres eius Drogo, Egidius et Maria soror eius”, by charter dated 1193[413]. “Henricus Bristaudus vicecomes Pruvini et Helvisa mater mea vicecomitissa Pruvini” donated property to the Templars at Provins, for the soul of “patris mei Petri Bristaudi”, by charter dated 1193[414].

His birth date is estimated working back from the dates on which his descendants are named, and also appears consistent with the estimated birth date of his paternal grandfather. "Dominus Adam de Cali, filius Stephani" donated property to the priory of Néronville, for the soul of "Gilonis filii sui", together with "duo nepotes eius Jocelinus et Adam, filii Gilonis, et Maheldis uxor Gilonis", by charter dated to [1140][417].

Jean [I] & his first wife had five children:

1. JEAN [II] de Melun (-11 Mar 1382, bur Jard). He succeeded his father in 1350 as Vicomte de Melun. Comte de Tancarville: Jean II King of France appointed “Johannis vicecomiti Meleduni ac Franciæ et Normanniæ Cambellani” as “comitem Tancarvillæ”, naming “Johannæ Crespinæ consortis suæ”, by charter dated 4 Feb 1351 (O.S.)[456]. The necrology of the Abbaye du Jard records the death "V Id Mar" of "domini Johannis de Meleduno comitis de Tanquervilla et cambellani Francie" and the bequest under his testament, and under “III Id Mar” his death in 1381 (presumably O.S.)[457]. m ([1334]) JEANNE Crespin, daughter of GUILLAUME [VI] Crespin Seigneur d’Etrépagny et du Bec-Crespin, connétable de Normandie & his wife Mathilde de Bommiers (-14 Jan 1374). Dame d’Etrépagny, de Varanguebec et de Neauphle. Her parentage, ancestry and marriage are recorded by Richemond[458]. Père Anselme dates her marriage to “vers l’an 1334”[459], but the source on which this speculation is based has not been identified. A charter dated Nov 1350, in the presence of “dictorum comitisse et comitis de Roucyaco eius filii” and “dicte domine de Boutavant, suo et dicti mariti sui nomine”, confirms an earlier agreement between “madame Marguerite de Bomez contesse de Roucy et de Brayne [...monseigneur le conte de Roucy et monseigneur Symon de Roucy, ses enfants]” and “monseigneur Jehan de Meleun seigneur de Tancarville [...à cause de madame Jehanne Crespin sa fame...madame Marie Crespin dame de Boutavant] et monseigneur Jehan de Chalon seigneur de Boutevant, à cause de leurs fames, [filles de la feue] dame d’Estrepigny, suer de la dite contesse” concerning “Bomez, de Mirabel, de Blason et de Montfaucon”[460]. She is named in the 4 Feb 1351 charter of her husband. Jean [II] & his wife had three children:

a) JEAN [III] (-[1382/85]). Vicomte de Melun. Comte de Tancarville. The necrology of the Abbaye du Jard records the death "III Id Mar" 1381 of "dominus Johannes vicecomes Meleduni comes de Tancarvilla et cambellanus"[461]. m (contract 19 Oct 1348) IDE de Marigny, daughter of LOUIS de Marigny & his wife Roberte de Beaumetz (-Sep 1391, bur [Ecouis Notre-Dame]). Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage, says that she was “fille unique” and “élevée auprês de la reine de Navarre”, adds that her uncles arranged her marriage in 1348, and that she died childless in Sep 1391[462]. Regnier indicates that the couple’s marriage contract was dated 19 Oct 1348[463]. If the marriage of her parents-in-law is correctly dated to [1334] (as suggested by Père Anselme), Ide must have been several years older than her husband. Regnier quotes an 18th century genealogical note which indicates that Ide was buried at Notre-Dame d’Ecouis near [her great-uncle] Jean de Marigny Archbishop of Rouen[464]. He also cites a reference to her testament dated 25 May 1391 the text of which has apparently been lost[465]. Regnier cites an “arrêt du Parlement” dated 23 Dec 1394 concerning the succession of “Ide de Marigny” but provides no details[466].

b) GUILLAUME de Melun (-killed in battle Agincourt 25 Oct 1415). Vicomte de Melun. Comte de Tancarville: Guillaume de Melun swore allegiance for Tancarville by charter dated 23 Jan 1385 (O.S.?)[467].

Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage, adding that the marriage was “par contrat du samedi 21 janvier 1390”[468]. Her parentage is indicated by the Chronique de la Pucelle which records the death in 1428 of [her son-in-law] “messire Jacques de Harcourt...neveu du seigneur de Parthenay”[469]. Considering the marriage of Guillaume’s older brother Jean [III], this date seems late for Guillaume’s own marriage, which suggests the possibility of an earlier otherwise unrecorded marriage. Guillaume & his wife had one child:

i) MARGUERITE (-before 1448). Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage but cites no source on which the information is based[470]. Vicomtesse de Melun, Ctss de Tancarville. m (Noyelles-sur-Mer 1417) as his second wife, JACQUES [II] d'Harcourt Baron de Montgommery, son of JACQUES [I] d’Harcourt Baron de Montgommery & his wife Jeanne d’Enghien (-killed Parthenay 1428).

A charter dated 1354 records an agreement between “Monseigneur Jehan d’Artois Conte d’Eu“ and “Hue de Melun Seigneur d’Espinoy et d’Anthoing“ concerning the obligations of “de bonne memoire Madame Ysabel Dame d’Espinoy et d’Anthoing sa mere“ under the marriage contract of “Madame Ysabel sa femme...et...de bonne memoire Pierre iadis Conte de Dreux”, and records actions taken by “[le] Conte d’Eu et de Tancarville et Simon de Melun” for “Mademoiselle Marie leur seur”[474].

A charter dated 1354 records an agreement between “Monseigneur Jehan d’Artois Conte d’Eu“ and “Hue de Melun Seigneur d’Espinoy et d’Anthoing“ concerning the obligations of “de bonne memoire Madame Ysabel Dame d’Espinoy et d’Anthoing sa mere“ under the marriage contract of “Madame Ysabel sa femme...et...de bonne memoire Pierre iadis Conte de Dreux”[478].

From a chronological point if view, it is likely that her father was Jean [IV] de Melun, meaning that Anselme misidentified her mother (Marie de Commercy/Saarbrücken being married to Jean [V] de Melun). An epitaph at Piennes records the burial of “messire Josse de Halewijn chlr sr de Peene...” who died 24 Sep 1472, and “dame Bonne d’Antoin en son vivant première femme...dudt messire Josse de Halewyn” who died 21 Jan 1446[487]. m firstly PIERRE de Sainte-Aldégonde Seigneur de Noircarmes, son of ---. m secondly (after 1441) as his second wife, JOSSE d’Halluin Seigneur de Piennes, son of JEAN Seigneur d’Halluin & his wife Jacqueline van Gistel Vrouw van Lanwe (-24 Sep 1472, bur Piennes-lez-Castel).]

[The necrology of Longpont also records the death "XIII Kal Dec" of "Guido de Rocaforti"[538]. The absence of the comital title in this entry suggests that it may not refer to the comital family. If it does, it is uncertain whether Guy [II] or Guy [III] is intended.] m ---. The name of Guy's wife is not known. Guy [III] & his wife had [one child]:

a) [SIMON (-before [1117/25]). Comte de Rochefort. A charter dated to [1140] records that "domino…Symone de Rupe Forti comite" had consented to a donation to Longpont Notre-Dame[539]. His parentage is not known but he may have been the son and successor of Guy [II].]

2. [daughter . The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not been identified. Père Anselme records that an unnamed daughter of Guy [II] married “Anseau de Garlande senechal de France” but indicates no primary source on which the statement is based[540].

Seneschal of France 1107/18.]

3. [BIOTE de Montlhéry .

Guy [II] & his second wife had three children:

Betrothed (1118) to --- de Montfort, daughter of AMAURY Seigneur de Montfort l’Amaury & his first wife Richildis de Hainaut. The Chronique de Morigny records that "Hugo de Creciaco" killed "Milonem de Monteleherico…dominum suum cognatum suum", after which he was besieged in "castrum Gumet" {Gometz}, fled "in curia Amaurici de Monte-forti…cujus et ipse Hugo filiam parvulam desponsaverat", and then became a monk, in a passage dealing with events in 1118[549].

5. LUCIENNE ([1090/95]-6 May, 1138 or after). Her betrothal is recorded by Orderic Vitalis, who calls her "Luciana", names her father and specifies that she later married "Guiscardo de Bello Loco"[550]. Suger's Vita Ludovici records the betrothal of "filius dominus Ludovicus" and "filiam Guidonis [comitis de Rupe Forti]" and their separation on grounds of consanguinity[551]. "Luciana soror Hugonis de Creciaco" donated her property "apud Agglias et Buxiacum" to Longpont, with the consent of "Ludovicus rex Francorum quia ex eius feodo erat", in the presence of "Hugone de Creciaco…Radulfo comite, Manasse de Turnomio…et Beatrix uxor eius", by charter dated to [1137][552]. The necrology of Notre-Dame de Beaujeu records the death "II Non Mai" of "Luciana…mater domini Humberti Bellijoci"[553]. Betrothed (1104, annulled Council of Troyes 23 May 1107 on grounds of consanguinity) to LOUIS de France, son of PHILIPPE I King of France & his first wife Bertha of Holland (Paris end 1081-Château Bethizy, near Paris 1 Aug 1137, bur église de l'Abbaye royale de Saint-Denis). He succeeded his father in 1108 as LOUIS VI "le Gros/le Batailleur" King of France. m (after 23 May 1107) GUICHARD [IV] Seigneur de Beaujeu, son of HUMBERT [II] [Seigneur de Beaujeu] & his wife Auxilia --- (-Cluny 23 Sep 1137).

6. BEATRIX ([1105/15]-after 1168). According to Europäische Stammtafeln, Beatrix was the daughter of Guy [II] "le Rouge" de Montlhéry Comte de Rochefort and his second wife, and sister of Hugues and Lucienne[554]. Assuming that Beatrix’s marriages are correct as shown below, this supposed parentage is stretched from a chronological point of view as she had children by her second husband whom she married after [1137]. Her birth date is estimated to [1105/15], on the basis of the birth of these children. Unfortunately no information has so far emerged about Beatrix’s first husband which could corroborate this estimate by indicating his approximate age or the date of their marriage. Beatrix held property rights in Crécy as shown by the following charter: "uxor domini Drogonis de Petrafonte, domina Beatrix" donated toll rights ("decimam sue partis…pedagium de Creceio" which she held "jure hereditario") to the monks of Vieux-Crécy, "pro viro suo et filiis suis Widone, Hugone atque Johanne", by charter dated to [1 Jan 1144/15 Apr 1145], witnessed by "Hugo monachus frater eius…"[555]. The document names "Hugo monachus frater eius" who must be identified as Hugues de Crécy, son of Guy [II] "le Rouge", who is shown above. A charter dated to [1119/30] records that “Guido comes de Rupeforti” donated “in villa...Ermentarvilla” to Saint-Jean-en-Vallée before he died, with the consent of “Beatrix soror eius”, witnessed by “...Hugo de Creci monacus”[556]. "Luciana soror Hugonis de Creciaco" donated her property "apud Agglias et Buxiacum" to Longpont, in the presence of "Hugone de Creciaco…Radulfo comite, Manasse de Turnomio qui hoc idem ibidem concessit", adding that "idem Manasses et Beatrix uxor eius" supported the donation "apud Creciacum prefatum" and added their own donation, by charter dated to [1137][557]. "Drogo…Petrefontensis dominus…et uxore eius Beatrice…et Nivelo filius meus" attested that "Johanne de Roia" had renounced his claims over land donated by Drogo to the abbey of Valsery by charter dated 1160[558]. "Wido de Castellione" renewed the donation of revenue to the church of Saint-Martin de Crécy, made by "uxor Drogone de Petrafonte, domina Beatrix" for "viro suo et pro filiis suis Widone, Hugone atque Johanne", in the presence of "Hugone monacho fratre predicte Beatricis…", by charter dated 1168[559]. Philippe II King of France confirmed the donation made to Notre-Dame de Longpont by "Beatrix de Petrafontis", confirmed after her death by "Agatha de Petrafontis ipsius filia", by charter dated 1183[560]. m firstly as his second wife, MANASSES de Tournan [en-Brie], son of --- (-after [1137]). m secondly (after [1137]) DREUX Seigneur de Pierrefonds, son of NIVELON [III Seigneur de Pierrefonds & his wife Beatrix --- (-[1160]).]

She married secondly (after [1177/82]) Guy [II] de Garlande. Europäische Stammtafeln records her first and second marriages[564]: the primary sources which confirm the information have not been identified, although it is suggested by Aug 1220 charter of her son Guy [born to her second husband] witnessed by "Dominus Guillelmus juvenis de Barris et dominus Johannes de Gallandia fratres mei"[565]. Guillaume [I] & his [first/second] wife had one child:

a) GUILLAUME [II] des Barres (-Fontaine-les-Nonnes 23 Mar 1234, bur Fontaine-les-Nonnes). Europäische Stammtafeln records that Guillaume was born from his father’s first marriage[566]. However, in a charter dated Aug 1220 [his uterine half-brother] "Dominus Guido…de Gallandia" donated property to Meaux Saint-Faron, witnessed by "Dominus Guillelmus juvenis de Barris et dominus Johannes de Gallandia fratres mei"[567]. "Guy vicomte de Dampmartin" donated property to the nuns of Noëfort, confirmed by charter dated 1177, which also records donations made by "Guillaume des Barres, pelerin en Jherusalem […H. sa femme, Guillaume son ainsné filz et ses autres filz]" witnessed by "…Thibault de Crespy", and by "Pierre vicomte de Crecy" with the consent of "Thibault son filz"[568]. "Willelmus de Barris" donated property to Fontaines abbey, with the consent of "Johanne fratre meo", for the soul of "patris mei defuncti Willelmi", by charter dated 1182[569]. "Willelmus de Barris" donated property to Fontaines abbey, with the consent of "fratrum meorum et sororum", for the soul of "Agnetis sororis meæ", by charter dated 1194[570]. "Willermus de Barris, pater" confirmed donations to Fontaines made by "ego et Amicia filia mea" by charter dated Oct 1214[571]. Comte de Rochefort, Seigneur d’Oissery et de la Ferté-Alais. The necrology of Meaux cathedral records the death "22 Mar" of "Willelmus de Barris senior" and his donation[572]. m (before 13 Jan 1188) as her second husband, AMICIE of Leicester, widow of SIMON [IV] de Montfort, daughter of ROBERT de Breteuil Earl of Leicester & his wife Pernelle de Grantmesnil (-3 or 10 Sep 1215, bur Abbaye de Haute-Bruyère). A history of the foundation of St Mary’s abbey, Leicester names “Amiciam primogenitam…et Margaritam juniorem” as the two daughters of “Robertus” and his wife “Petronillam filiam Hugonis de Grantmenyl”, adding that Amice married “domino Symoni de Monteforti”[573]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines refers to the mother of "comes Symon Montisfortis et Guido frater eius" as "Guilelmum comitem Licestrie…sorore" but does not name her[574]. "Simon de Monte Forti" donated money from "Rochefort" to Notre-Dame des Vaux de Cernay, with the consent of "Amicia uxore mea", by charter dated to [1180][575]. A charter dated Feb 1199 recalls a donation to the leprosery of Grand-Beaulieu near Chartres by "Amauricus de Monteforti", with the consent of "Amauricus parvus filius eiusdem Amaurici, qui erat sub custodia Amaurici de Mestenon", confirmed after his death by "Simon frater eius et successor", and a later donation by "Simon iste comes Ebroicensis et Mahaudis [presumably an error for Amicia] uxor eius"[576]. She styled herself Ctss of Leicester after the death of her brother Robert. She surrendered Breteuil to Philippe II King of France in 1206 in return for other lands[577]. Her second marriage is confirmed by the necrology of the Prieuré de Fontaines which shows that she had a daughter by her second husband when it records the death "23 Dec" of "domina Ameza…monacha, Willelmi de Barris et comitisse Montis Fortis filia"[578]. The necrology of Chartres cathedral records the death "IV Id Sep" of "Amicia…comitissa Liecestrie et domina Montisfortis"[579]. The necrology of Haute-Bruyère lists members of the Montfort family who are buried in the abbey, including "…comte Simon…et de sa femme la contesse Amicie…"[580]. Guillaume [II] & his wife had two children:

i) GUILLAUME [III] des Barres (-Nicosia 15 Nov [1249]). The Historia Albigensium of Pierre de Vaux-Cernay records that "miles juvenis et frater comitis nostri ex parte matris…Guillelmus de Barris" was present at the siege of "castrum Murelli", dated to 1212 from the context[581].

- see below.

c) other son(s) . "Guy vicomte de Dampmartin" donated property to the nuns of Noëfort, confirmed by charter dated 1177, which also records donations made by "Guillaume des Barres, pelerin en Jherusalem […H. sa femme, Guillaume son ainsné filz et ses autres filz]" witnessed by "…Thibault de Crespy", and by "Pierre vicomte de Crecy" with the consent of "Thibault son filz"[587].

Guillaume [I] & his second wife had two children:

f) EUDES des Barres (-1232). Europäische Stammtafeln records his parentage[590]. The primary source which confirms this affiliation has not been identified. Seigneur de Chaumont [sur-Yonne]. m (before 1209) HELOISE de Chaumont Dame de Chaumont [sur-Yonne], daughter of GALERAN Seigneur de Chaumont & his wife Ermesende Vicomtesse de Sens (-1249). Europäische Stammtafeln records her parentage and marriage[591]. The primary source which confirms this information has not been identified.

- SEIGNEURS de CHAUMONT-sur-YONNE[592].

g) PIERRE des Barres (-[28 Sep 1233/1234]). Europäische Stammtafeln records his parentage[593]. The primary source which confirms this affiliation has not been identified. m as her first husband, ELISABETH, daughter of --- & his wife [Elisabeth de Montréal Dame de Meursault] (-[5 Jan ----], after 1238). Her family origin and two marriages are indicated by the following document: “Elisabeth dame d’Antigny et de Meursault” donated revenue from property at Meursault to the abbey of la Bussière, with the consent of “Philippe d’Antigny son mari...[et] par ses enfants Gui et Alyxant dame de Noyers et par sa fille Flore qu’elle a eu dudit Philippe” by charter dated 1238[594]. She married secondly ([1235/36]) Philippe d’Antigny. The obituary of Cîteaux records the death “Non Jan” of “Helisabeth domina de Muressaut”, which could apply to this Elisabeth or to her mother[595]. Pierre & his wife had [three] children:

i) [GUY des Barres (-after 1238). “Elisabeth dame d’Antigny et de Meursault” donated revenue from property at Meursault to the abbey of la Bussière, with the consent of “Philippe d’Antigny son mari...[et] par ses enfants Gui et Alyxant dame de Noyers et par sa fille Flore qu’elle a eu dudit Philippe” by charter dated 1238[596]. As noted below, the omission of Guy’s known brother Eudes from this document suggests that “Gui” may have been an error for “Eudes”.]

ii) EUDES des Barres . His omission from his mother’s 1238 charter, which names her three other known children, seems surprising. Could “Gui” in that document have been an error for “Eudes”? A charter dated “la vegile de Pasques” [Mar/Apr] 1251 (O.S.?) records the settlement between “Guillaume de Borbon sires de Beçay” and “Miles sires de Noyers” of their dispute concerning debts which “mes sires de Noyers demandoit par lou bail Jahannet, lou fils mon seignor Odom des Barres...par chief de sa feme qui suer geormaigne fu au devant dit Odom”, while “mes sires Guillaume de Borbon” had married “la mère dou dist Jahannet, dont il ha dousa nfanz”[597]. m as her first husband, MARGUERITE Dame de Boisrosier, daughter of ---. She married secondly Guillaume de Bourbon Seigneur de Beçay. Her two marriages are confirmed by the charter dated “la vegile de Pasques” [Mar/Apr] 1251 (O.S.?) which records the settlement between “Guillaume de Borbon sires de Beçay” and “Miles sires de Noyers” of their dispute concerning debts which “mes sires de Noyers demandoit par lou bail Jahannet, lou fils mon seignor Odom des Barres...par chief de sa feme qui suer geormaigne fu au devant dit Odom”, while “mes sires Guillaume de Borbon” had married “la mère dou dist Jahannet, dont il ha dousa nfanz”[598]. Eudes & his wife had one child:

(a) JEAN des Barres . A charter dated “la vegile de Pasques” [Mar/Apr] 1251 (O.S.?) records the settlement between “Guillaume de Borbon sires de Beçay” and “Miles sires de Noyers” of their dispute concerning debts which “mes sires de Noyers demandoit par lou bail Jahannet, lou fils mon seignor Odom des Barres...par chief de sa feme qui suer geormaigne fu au devant dit Odom”, while “mes sires Guillaume de Borbon” had married “la mère dou dist Jahannet, dont il ha dousa nfanz”[599]. A charter dated Jul 1260 records an agreement between “Milon seigneur de Noiers” and “Jahannat des Barres” regarding the same matter[600].

iii) ALIXENDE des Barres (-[1250]). Her parentage and marriage are indicated by the charter dated 1238 under which [her mother] “Elisabeth dame d’Antigny et de Meursault” donated revenue from property at Meursault to the abbey of la Bussière, with the consent of “Philippe d’Antigny son mari...[et] par ses enfants Gui et Alyxant dame de Noyers et par sa fille Flore qu’elle a eu dudit Philippe”[601]. The charter dated [Mar/Apr] 1251 quoted below refers to her in the past tense, indicating that she was deceased at the time. As her husband emancipated his sons in 1272 (see below), it is unlikely that they were older than 18/20 years at the time, which suggests that they could not have been born from --- des Barres whose death can probably be estimated to [1250]. A charter dated “la vegile de Pasques” [Mar/Apr] 1251 (O.S.?) records the settlement between “Guillaume de Borbon sires de Beçay” and “Miles sires de Noyers” of their dispute concerning debts which “mes sires de Noyers demandoit par lou bail Jahannet, lou fils mon seignor Odom des Barres...par chief de sa feme qui suer geormaigne fu au devant dit Odom”, while “mes sires Guillaume de Borbon” had married “la mère dou dist Jahannet, dont il ha dousa nfanz”[602]. m (before 1238) as his first wife, MILON [VIII] Seigneur de Noyers, son of MILON [VII] Seigneur de Noyers & his wife Agnes de Brienne (-after Feb 1272).

GUILLAUME [III] des Barres, son of GUILLAUME [II] des Barres Comte de Rochefort Seigneur d’Oissery et de la Ferté-Alais[603] & his wife Amice of Leicester (-Nicosia 15 Nov [1249]). The Historia Albigensium of Pierre de Vaux-Cernay records that "miles juvenis et frater comitis nostri ex parte matris…Guillelmus de Barris" was present at the siege of "castrum Murelli", dated to 1212 from the context[604].

Her first marriage is confirmed by the charter dated 1227 under which "Simon de Joinville, comme mari de Béatrix, fille d'Etienne comte d'Auxonne et de Béatrix comtesse de Chalon" swore homage to the duke of Burgundy for the château de Marnay[607]. The primary source which confirms her second marriage has not been identified. She succeeded her father in 1203 as Ctss de Chalon. “Beatrix cometissa Cabilonensis” made an agreement with the abbey of Autun Saint-Martin relating to “mansis in territorio de Chenovis” by charter dated Aug 1226[608].

C. SEIGNEURS de CHÂTEAUFORT

Châteaufort is located in the canton of Palaiseau, arrondissement de Versailles, in the present-day French département of Seine-et-Oise, south of Paris. The earliest sources so far identified which refer to Châteaufort date from the 1060s, although the date when the castle was first established is not known. Tracing the holding of Châteaufort during the 11th and 12th centuries represents one of the most difficult unresolved problems in the history of the Paris region. A charter, dated to [1068/74], which records a donation to the church of Châteaufort Saint-Christophe records that the châtellenie de Châteaufort was divided into two shares, the first part held by Guy Seigneur de Montlhéry and the second by the brothers Aimery and Hugues de Châteaufort, whose holding was presumably also based on descent from the Montlhéry family. In the early 12th century, Châteaufort was held by Hugues de Crécy, son of Guy [II] Comte de Rochefort, representing presumably only the first part of the holding as direct descendant of Guy Seigneur de Montlhéry. The castle was where Hugues imprisoned and later murdered his cousin Milon [II] in [1116/18], and was presumably among the properties confiscated by Louis VI King of France. No record has yet been found of the identity of any new grantee of this first part of Châteaufort. Isolated references have been found to other holders of Châteaufort during the 12th century as shown below, presumably all title-holders of the second part as successors of the brothers Aimery and Hugues although the information in the documentation is insufficient to trace any family descent.

Mathilde, wife of Bouchard de Montmorency Seigneur de Marly, is recorded as Dame de Châteaufort in the early 13th century. The precise line of descent by which she inherited the Châteaufort seigneurie has not been identified. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names her mother Constance as youngest daughter of Pierre de France Seigneur de Courtenay (see CHAMPAGNE NOBILITY). Given that the ancestry of the Courtenay family can be traced with certainty in the 12th century, this parentage does not provide the necessary link with Châteaufort. Modern secondary sources name “Gasce de Poissy” as the first husband of Constance and father of Mathilde de Marly (although the primary source which confirms that this information is correct has not been identified). One possibility is that Mathilde’s father (whatever his identity) was the heir to Châteaufort, maybe as the son of one of the three daughters of Hugues [II] de Châteaufort who are named in the charter dated 1167 which is quoted below. This Gasce de Poissy has not yet been satisfactorily identified. There are two known possibilities: Gasce [V] de Poissy, whose known wife was named in a charter dated towards the end of her husband’s life which appears to exclude a second marriage, and his son Gasce [VI], after whose death Poissy was inherited by his younger brother Robert which suggests that he left no surviving children. Another possible indication of the ancestry of Mathilde de Marly Dame de Châteaufort is provided by a charter dated Jul 1212, issued by Mathilde and her sister Mabilie, which refers to “Hugo...dominus Galardonis antecessor noster”. He was been identified as Hugues [I] de Gallardon (see CENTRAL FRANCE NOBILITY). No connection has been made between the Gallardon family and Châteaufort. However, Hugues died in [1100] leaving an infant daughter Mathilde. The chronology suggests that this Mathilde de Gallardon could have been one of the unknown great-grandmothers of Mathilde de Marly, maybe the mother of the other Mathilde who is recorded as the wife of Hugues [II] de Châteaufort (see below).

Two brothers:

1. AMAURY de Châteaufort . “...Amalricus de Castello-Forti...” subscribed the charter dated 29 May 1067 under which Philippe I King of France confirmed the possessions of Paris Saint-Martin-des-Champs[622].

"Guido de Caprosia miles castellanus Nealphe Castri et Johanna eius uxor" donated property “prope villam Sarnaii” by charter dated Mar 1291[757].]

This charter does not help identify the Guy de Chevreuse who was Sédille’s father. However, her birth date estimated from the estimated birth date of her great-grandson in [1280/85], suggests that her father must have been Guy [III] Seigneur de Chevreuse. She was named as deceased in the 24 Jun 1287 charter of her son and grandson. m GUILLAUME [VI] Maingot Seigneur de Surgères, son of GUILLAUME [V] Maingot Seigneur de Surgères & his wife Sibylle --- (-before Jul 1282).]

The relationship, if any, between the following person and the previous Chevreuse family has not been ascertained.

Seigneur de Tremblay. m MARGUERITE Trousseau, daughter of PIERRE Trousseau Seigneur de Launoy-Trousseau & his wife [Bertrande] Vicomtesse de Bruniquel (-after 4 Apr 1407). The testament of Bertrande de Bruniquel “femme de Pierre de Troussel chevalier et dame de Châteaux”, dated 22 Aug 1360, made bequests to “...sa fille Marguerite pour entrer comme religieuse minoresse au couvent de la Guilhe...à son fils Guillaume Troselli...”, appointed “son fils Jean Pierre” as her heir[766]. Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage with “Pierre de Chevreuse chevalier seigneur de Tremblay”, noting that her husband was “conseiller et chambellan du duc d’Anjou, gouverneur du comté de Dreux, general de toutes les finances en Languedoc en 1390”, but does not cite the sources on which this information is based[767]. A charter dated 11 Sep 1391, included in a vidimus dated 8 Mar 1443 compiled at the request of Vicomte Raymond Roger III, records that “le seigneur Pierre de Chevreuse et Marguerite de Troussel sa femme, celle-ci de licence de son père Pierre...Jean Pierre de Troussel fils de ce dernier et de feu Bertrande de Toulouse” settled disputes with “Roger Roger de Comminges vicomte de Bruniquel”, under which the last-named would pay an amount to “Isabelle de Troussel femme de Raymond Roger II vicomte de Couserans et de Bruniquel pour un quart”[768].

A connection between this family group and the family of Gometz-la Ferté is indicated by the donation of “ecclesias de Firmitate Bauduini” made by “Guido Trossellus...concedente uxore sua Adelaide et patre suo Milone vicecomite et matre sua vicecomitissa”, as the donor is identified as the grandson of Hodierne de Gometz-la-Ferté (see below) and her husband Guy [I] Seigneur de Montlhéry. One child:

a) AIMON (-after [1095]). The Chronicon Mauriniacense records the foundation of the abbey, dated to [1095], and early donations including the donation of “medietatem Stripiniacensis ecclesie” made by “Ansellus filius Arenberti” and of the other half by “Haimo filius Senechildis de Firmitate Balduini” with “Verruinas”[772].

Two siblings, parents not known:

1. GUILLAUME [I] de Gometz-la-Ferté (-after 1071). "Rodulfi comitis, Willelmi Corboilensis comitis, Ivonis comitis Bellimonits, Nanterii vicecomitis, Willelmi de Gomez..." witnessed the charter dated 20 May 1043 under which Henri I King of France confirmed the respective rights of "nostro milite...Nivardo" and the abbey of Saint-Maur-des-Fossé over “villam...Equatam in finibus silve Aquiline sitam”[773]. "…Willelmi senescalci…" witnessed the charter dated to [1059/60] under which Henri King of France confirmed the foundation of Paris Saint-Martin-des-Champs[774]. “...Willelmus de Gomethiaco...” subscribed the charter dated 29 May 1067 under which Philippe I King of France confirmed the possessions of Paris Saint-Martin-des-Champs[775]. “...Guillelmi de Feritate...” subscribed the charter dated 1071 under which "Buccardus…Corbolensium comes" donated property to the abbey of Saint-Spire de Corbeil[776]. m ALBEREDA, daughter of ---. “Junior Willelmus” confirmed the donation of the church of Saint-Clair to Saumur Saint-Florent, made when “de potestate et custodia Hervei de Montemorentiaco” by “mater sua...Albereda” for the soul of “patris sui Willelmi”, by charter dated 16 May 1081[777].

2. HODIERNE de Gometz-la-Ferté (-26 Apr ----, bur ---, transferred 1641 to Longpont church). The Historia of Monk Aimon records that "Guidonem", son of "Theobaldus cognomina Filans-stupas, Forestarius [Roberti Regis]", married "dominam de Feritate et de Gommet"[779]. The primary source which confirms her precise parentage has not been identified. The editor of the cartulary of Longpont refers to a history of Longpont written in 1713 which records that "Gui II de Montmorency fils de Thibaud de Montmorency surnommé File-Etoupes seigneur de Bray" [presumed to refer to Guy [I] de Montlhéry] married "Hodierne fille et héritière de Guillaume de Gomintez sénéchal de France seigneur de la Ferté" but does not cite the corresponding primary source[780]. The chronology of her descendants indicates that Hodierne (whose great-granddaughter married in 1104) was much older than Guillaume [II] de Gometz-la-Ferté (probably born in the 1060s). It appears unlikely, therefore, that she was the daughter of Guillaume [I] but was more probably his sister. "Guido de Monte Leterico eiusque uxor Hodierna" donated property to Notre-Dame de Longpont by charter dated to [1061], witnessed by "Wido filius eorum, Adam vicecomes..."[781]. "Guido de Monte Leherico" donated property to Notre-Dame de Longpont, confirmed by "filii mei Milo et Guido et conjux mea Hodierna", by charter dated to [1070][782]. "Guido de Monte Leherico" donated property to Notre-Dame de Longpont, confirmed by "filii mei Milo et Guido et conjux mea Hodierna", by charter dated to [1070][783]. The necrology of Longpont records the death "IX Kal Aug" of "Guido institutor hujus loci. Guido vicecomes; Adalaidis comitissa, uxor; Wido filius eius", a supplementary section adding a further reference to the anniversary of “donni Guidonis senioris hujus loci institutoris et Guidonis comitis filii eius...IX Kal Aug” as well as the anniversary of “donne Hodierne uxoris ipsius Guidonis senioris et Ermensendis de Sancto Galarico filie amborum...VII Kal Apr” with a reference to her visit to Cluny where “beato Hugoni abbati” gave her “calicem...aureum”[784]. The editor of the cartulary of Longpont quotes an inscription in the church of Longpont which records that the body of "Audiernæ...comitissæ Herici Montis...harum ædium fundatricis" was transferred into the church 31 Aug 1641[785]. m GUY [I] Seigneur de Montlhéry, son of THIBAUT “Filans-stupas/File-Etoupes” & his wife --- (-[24 Jul] 1095, bur abbaye de Longpont).

2. [--- . It is assumed from the charter dated Jan 1213 quoted below that one of the parents of Guillaume de Maurepast was the brother/sister of Philippe [I] Seigneur de Lévis, although the word "cousin" could mean a more remote relationship. It is not known whether Guillaume’s father or mother was related to the Lévis family. m ---.] One child:

a) GUILLAUME de Maurepast (-[before Jan 1213]). "Philippe archidiacre du Pincerais" donated revenue from "Maurepast…acquise de Guillaume de Maurepast mon cousin paternel" to the nuns of Saint-Chorentin, with the consent of "Pierre de Richebourg du fief duquel ladite dixme est dépendante…[et] de Anne espouse dudit de Richebourg et de Guidon leur filz", by charter dated Jan 1213[825]. It is assumed that Guillaume died before the date of the charter and that he had bequeathed the revenue in question to his cousin Philippe.

The relationship between the following persons and the main Lévis family is not known. It is possible that Etienne was the son of Alexandre de Lévis, whose marriage is recorded but about whose children there is no information. He could not have been the son of Simon de Lévis: if any sons by Simon’s first marriage had survived, they would presumably have been mentioned in the charters quoted above which relate to his first wife’s donation, and any sons by his second marriage would have been too young to have had adult children in 1246.

1. ETIENNE de Lévis (-before Jun 1248). m ---. The name of Etienne’s wife is not known. Etienne & his wife had one child:

a) GAUTHIER de Lévis (-after 1246). "Galterius de Levies presbiter" sold property "apud Marolium" to "abbati Gaudis-Vallis" by charter dated 1246[826].

GUY [III] de Lévis, son of GUY [II] de Lévis Maréchal de Mirepoix & his wife Jeanne --- (-[2 Feb 1297/25 Jun 1300]).

Dame de Montbrun et de Pennes. Thibaut [I] & his wife had [four] children:

a) THIBAUT [II] de Lévis ([1305/12]-30 May 1387). Père Anselme records that his uncle Pierre de Lévis Bishop of Cambrai was Thibaut’s guardian in 1316[871]. Baron de Montbrun. m SEGUINE de Comminges, daughter of ---. Père Anselme names her as wife of Thibaut [II] but does not name her parents[872]. She has not yet been traced in the comital family of Comminges. Thibaut & his wife had one child:

i) CECILE de Lévis (-before 1392). Père Anselme records that Cécile, daughter of Thibaut de Lévis, was kidnapped by “Charles d’Espagne son parent...au troisième degré” who captured “[le] château de Montbrun” in 1374 and expelled his father-in-law, adding that the couple died before 1392 leaving two sons “Thibaut et Bertrand d’Espagne dits de Lévis” who were legitimated 17 Apr 1379, required because their parents married without the required dispensation, while the older son Thibaut was appointed heir under his maternal grandfather’s testament dated 30 May 1387 and, aged 15, obtained confirmation of his legitimation 18 Jul 1388[873]. Père Anselme records that Thibaut d’Espagne was ordered 4 Sep 1405 to share his inheritance with “Brunissende de Lautrec, femme d’Yves seigneur de Garencières...petite-fille de Gaillarde de Lévis, sœur de Thibaut de Lévis [II] Seigneur de Montbrun”[874]. Charles d’Espagne has not otherwise been identified, nor his precise family relationship with Cécile de Lévis ascertained. The “Espagne” family descended from the Vicomtes de Couserans (see the document TOULOUSE NOBILITY), but their relationship with the Comminges family (see Cécile’s mother) is too remote to constitute 3^o consanguinity between Cécile and Charles d’Espagne. m (before [1372/73]) CHARLES d’Espagne, son of --- (-before 1392).

b) GAILLARDE de Lévis . Her parentage is indicated by the decision dated 4 Sep 1405 under which “Thibaut d’Espagne dit de Lévis” (see above) was ordered to share his inheritance with [her granddaughter] “Brunissende de Lautrec, femme d’Yves seigneur de Garencières...petite-fille de Gaillarde de Lévis, sœur de Thibaut de Lévis [II] Seigneur de Montbrun”[875]. Dame de Montaigut {Tarn}. m GUILLAUME de Narbonne, son of AIMERY [V] Vicomte de Narbonne & his wife Jeanne de l’Isle-Jourdain (-after 1337). Seigneur de Montaigut, de iure uxoris. Seigneur de Montagnac {Hérault}.

c) [--- de Lévis . His/her possible parentage is explained below under Anglésie [de Lévis]. One difficulty with this possible descent is that Anglésie [de Lévis] was apparently not named in the decision dated 4 Sep 1405 (or at least Père Anselme’s summary of this decision) under which Thibaut d’Espagne dit de Lévis (see above) was ordered to share his inheritance with “Brunissende de Lautrec, femme d’Yves seigneur de Garencières...petite-fille de Gaillarde de Lévis, sœur de Thibaut de Lévis [II] Seigneur de Montbrun”[876]. m ---. One child:]

i) [--- . m ---. One child:]

(a) [ANGLESIE [de Levis] . Père Anselme states that Anglésie was the daughter of Thibaut de Lévis Seigneur de Sérignac et de Florensac, and his wife Anglésie de Montaigut, and records her marriage, adding that her father-in-law demanded her agreed dowry in 1390[877]. If 1390 is the right date (and the birth date of her daughter suggests that it could be correct), Anselme’s indicated parentage is impossible from a chronological point of view. Her name indicates descent from Anglésie de Montaigut: the chronology suggests that Anglésie [de Lévis] could have been her granddaughter. m (before 1387) PIERRE de Bueil Seigneur du Bois, son of JEAN [III] Seigneur de Bueil & his first wife Anne d’Avoir (-Apr 1414).]

4. MATHIEU (-[Jan/Sep] 1296). The marriage contract between “Guidone de Levis dom. Mirapicis et...Mathei de Levis filii sui” and “domina Aladayssi relicta dom.

H. SEIGNEURS de MONTLHERY

Montlhéry is located due south of Paris, west of Corbeil and east of Rambouillet. The chronology of the documents quoted below suggests that the castle of Montlhéry was first constructed in the early 11th century during the reign of Robert II King of France.

1. THIBAUT “Filans-stupas/File-Etoupes” . The Historia of Monk Aimon names "Theobaldus cognomina Filans-stupas, Forestarius [Roberti Regis]" as father of "Guidonem...[de] Montem-Lethericum"[965]. Brémeron’s history of Longpont, written in 1713 calls him "Thibaud de Montmorency surnommé File-Etoupes seigneur de Bray" (without citing the corresponding primary source)[966]. No primary source has been found that indicates that Thibaut was related to the seigneurs de Montmorency. m ---. The name of Thibaut’s wife is not known. Thibaut & his wife had one child:

a) GUY [I] (-[24 Jul] 1095, bur abbaye de Longpont). The Historia of Monk Aimon names "Guidonem" as the son of "Theobaldus cognomina Filans-stupas, Forestarius [Roberti Regis]" stating that he held "Montem-Lethericum"[967]. Seigneur de Montlhéry. He founded the priory of Longpont [1061]: Geoffroy Bishop of Paris confirmed that "noster miles...Guido" founded the church of Notre-Dame de Longpont, under the abbey of Cluny, by charter dated to [1061][968]. "Guido de Monte Leterico eiusque uxor Hodierna" donated property to Notre-Dame de Longpont by charter dated to [1061], witnessed by "Wido filius eorum, Adam vicecomes..."[969]. "…Guido de Monte Letheri…" witnessed the charter dated 29 May 1067 under which Philippe I King of France confirmed the possessions of Saint-Martin-des-Champs[970]. "Guido de Monte Leherico" donated property to Notre-Dame de Longpont, confirmed by "filii mei Milo et Guido et conjux mea Hodierna", by charter dated to [1070], witnessed by “...Aymo vicecomes...”[971]. He became a monk at Longpont. The necrology of Longpont records the death "IX Kal Aug" of "Guido institutor hujus loci. Guido vicecomes; Adalaidis comitissa, uxor; Wido filius eius", a supplementary section adding a further reference to the anniversary of “donni Guidonis senioris hujus loci institutoris et Guidonis comitis filii eius...IX Kal Aug” as well as the anniversary of “donne Hodierne uxoris ipsius Guidonis senioris et Ermensendis de Sancto Galarico filie amborum...VII Kal Apr” with a reference to her visit to Cluny where “beato Hugoni abbati” gave her “calicem...aureum”[972]. m HODIERNE de Gometz-la-Ferté, daughter of --- (-26 Apr ----, bur ---, transferred 1641 to Longpont church). The Historia of Monk Aimon records that "Guidonem", son of "Theobaldus cognomina Filans-stupas, Forestarius [Roberti Regis]", married "dominam de Feritate et de Gommet"[973]. The primary source which confirms her precise parentage has not been identified. The editor of the cartulary of Longpont refers to a history of Longpont written in 1713 which records that "Gui II de Montmorency fils de Thibaud de Montmorency surnommé File-Etoupes seigneur de Bray" [presumed to refer to Guy [I] de Montlhéry] married "Hodierne fille et héritière de Guillaume de Gomintez sénéchal de France seigneur de la Ferté" but does not cite the corresponding primary source[974]. The chronology of her descendants indicates that Hodierne (whose great-granddaughter married in 1104) was much older than Guillaume [II] de Gometz-la-Ferté (probably born in the 1060s). It appears unlikely, therefore, that she was the daughter of Guillaume [I] but was more probably his sister.

"…Willelmi senescalci…" witnessed the charter dated to [1059/60] under which Henri King of France confirmed the foundation of Paris Saint-Martin-des-Champs[978]. “...Willelmus de Gomethiaco...” subscribed the charter dated 29 May 1067 under which Philippe I King of France confirmed the possessions of Paris Saint-Martin-des-Champs[979]. “...Guillelmi de Feritate...” subscribed the charter dated 1071 under which "Buccardus…Corbolensium comes" donated property to the abbey of Saint-Spire de Corbeil[980].] "Guido de Monte Leherico" donated property to Notre-Dame de Longpont, confirmed by "filii mei Milo et Guido et conjux mea Hodierna", by charter dated to [1070][981]. The necrology of Longpont records the death "IX Kal Aug" of "Guido institutor hujus loci. Guido vicecomes; Adalaidis comitissa, uxor; Wido filius eius", a supplementary section adding a further reference to the anniversary of “donni Guidonis senioris hujus loci institutoris et Guidonis comitis filii eius...IX Kal Aug” as well as the anniversary of “donne Hodierne uxoris ipsius Guidonis senioris et Ermensendis de Sancto Galarico filie amborum...VII Kal Apr” with a reference to her visit to Cluny where “beato Hugoni abbati” gave her “calicem...aureum”[982]. The editor of the cartulary of Longpont quotes an inscription in the church of Longpont which records that the body of "Audiernæ...comitissæ Herici Montis...harum ædium fundatricis" was transferred into the church 31 Aug 1641[983]. Guy [I] & his wife had seven children:

i) MILON "le Grand" de Bray (-after 1102).

Galerico" as the children of "Guidonem" and his wife[988]. She is named as wife of Hugues Comte de Rethel by William of Tyre, although he does not specify her origin[989]. In a later passage he records that the mother of Joscelin de Courtenay Count of Edessa was the sister of the mother of Baudouin de Bourg, later Baudouin II King of Jerusalem, according to the testimony of her granddaughter concerning the consanguinity between Amaury I King of Jerusalem and his first wife which provided the basis for the annulment of their marriage in 1162[990]. “Hugo comes et Milesindis collateralis” donated mills “super Axonam fluvium ante Rettestum” to Laon Saint-Vincent, with the consent of “filio nostro Manasse”, by charter dated 1097[991]. m (before 1075[992]) HUGUES [I] de Rethel, son of MANASSES [III] Comte de Rethel & his wife Judith --- (-[1118]). He succeeded his father [1081] as Comte de Rethel.

The Historia of Monk Aimon names "Milonem de Brayo et Guidonem Rubeum, Comitissam quoque Reiteste, et Bonam-vecinam de Pontibus, Elizabeth etiam uxorem Joscelini de Corteciniaco, insuper dominam de Puisat, et dominam de S.

Galerico" as the children of "Guidonem" and his wife, stating in a later passage that "Elisabeth filiam Milonis de Monte-Letherico" was the second wife of "Joscelinum de Cortinaco"[998]. It appears chronologically more probable that Isabelle was the daughter of Guy rather than his son Milon, although this is not beyond all doubt. Bouchet records her marriage to “après l’an 1065” (no source cited)[999]. William of Tyre specifies that the mother of Joscelin de Courtenay Count of Edessa was the sister of the mother of Baudouin de Bourg, later Baudouin II King of Jerusalem, according to the testimony of her granddaughter concerning the consanguinity between Amaury I King of Jerusalem and his first wife which provided the basis for the annulment of their marriage in 1162[1000].

Galerico" as the children of "Guidonem" and his wife[1002]. The identity of Hodierne’s husband is uncertain, but from a chronological point of view he could have been Gauthier. The necrology of Longpont records the death "IX Kal Aug" of "Guido institutor hujus loci. Guido vicecomes; Adalaidis comitissa, uxor; Wido filius eius", a supplementary section adding a further reference to the anniversary of “donni Guidonis senioris hujus loci institutoris et Guidonis comitis filii eius...IX Kal Aug” as well as the anniversary of “donne Hodierne uxoris ipsius Guidonis senioris et Ermensendis de Sancto Galarico filie amborum...VII Kal Apr” with a reference to her visit to Cluny where “beato Hugoni abbati” gave her “calicem...aureum”[1003]. In another passage, the necrology of Longpont records the death "VIII Kal Apr" of "domine Hodierne de Sancto Galarico"[1004]. m [as his second wife, GAUTHIER Seigneur de Saint-Valéry-en-Caux, son of BERNARD [I] Seigneur de Saint-Valéry & his wife --- (-after [1098])].

The relationship, if any, between the following persons and the preceding Montlhéry family has not been ascertained, although the name Milon suggests that there was probably a close connection. In addition, the names are reminiscent of the châtelains de Châteaufort, whose relationship with the early Montlhéry family is indicated by their joint holding of the châtelennie with Guy [I] Seigneur de Montlhéry.

1. MILON de Montlhéry (-after 1034). “...Milonis de Monte Leutherio, Hugonis de Monte Mauro, Drogonis de Monte Leutherio...” subscribed the charter dated 1034 under which "Theobaldus et Stephanus germanus meus...comites Francia et Ermengardis comitissa mater noster" confirmed property "in pago Ambianensi...Crisciacum" to the church of Amiens[1005]. m ---.

3. MILON [II] (-murdered [26 Apr] [1118], bur Notre-Dame de Longpont). The Continuation de l’Histoire d’Aimonus names "Guidonem Trossellum, Theobaldum la Bose, Milonem…Rainaldum epicopum Trecensem" as the sons of "Milo [de Brayo, frater Guidonis Rubei]", adding that Milon was strangled by "Hugo de Creceio"[1031].

A charter dated to [1116/17] records that "Milo Milonis filius, Guidonis Trosselli frater", a captive of "Hugone de Crecio…apud Castellum Forte", donated property to Notre-Dame de Longpont, and adds that later Milon was killed in the same place and buried "apud Longum Pontem" in the presence of "Rainaldus frater eius…cum nepotibus suis et Manasse vicecomite Senonensi"[1035]. Louis VII King of France confirmed donations to Notre-Dame de Longpont by "domini Milonis junioris" by charter dated 1137, before 1 Aug[1036].

"Adela or Lithuise" is shown by Weir[1039] as the daughter of Comte Etienne, and wife of Milon, but the primary source on which this is based has not been identified. "Lithuaise", daughter of Comte Etienne, is shown in Europäische Stammtafeln[1040] as the wife of Milon. It is assumed that the name "Lithuaise" results from confusion with his mother. The source which confirms her name as Adela/Adelaide has not been identified.

4. [ADELAIDE .

The names of some of the witnesses can be identified as nephews of the deceased. It is probable that “Manasses de Villamor, Milo filius eius” were also closely related. If that is correct, the position of their names as first in the witness list suggests that they were the most senior of those named. “Adaleidis uxor Manasse” donated vines "in suo clausulo apud Cellas" to Notre-Dame de Longpont, with the consent of "Guarinus pater Manasse et Milo atque Ansellus filii eius", by charter dated to [1120][1042]. m MANASSES de Villemur, son of GUERIN & his wife ---.]

I. SEIGNEURS de MONTAGU de MARCOUSSIS

Merlet notes that, after the death in 1409 of Jean de Montagu (see below), “un bruit injurieux...courut” that he was the illegitimate son of the future Charles V King of France in order to explain his acquisition of enormous wealth[1055]. The primary source which records this rumour has not been identified. It was not Pierre Cochon’s Chronique Normande which, as noted below, makes no mention of the question[1056]. Merlet suggests that the “Gros” family was descended from the Grossus family of Burgundy, Seigneurs de Brancion (see BURGUNDY DUCHY NOBILITY - MÂCON & BEAUJEU), but provides no documentary proof to support this suggestion[1057].

1. ROBERT Gros dit de Montagu (-after 15 Oct 1340). Merlet records “Robert le Gros dit de Montagu bourgeois de Paris” as present in a document dated 15 Oct 1340, adding that he acquired “Montagu...un château situé près de Poissy-en-Laye”[1058]. m MADELEINE de Maugiron[1059], daughter of ---. Robert & his wife had two children:

a) GERARD de Montagu (-17 Sep 1380, bur Sainte-Croix de la Bretonnerie, Paris). An epitaph at Sainte-Croix de la Bretonnerie, Paris records the death 17 Sep 1380 of “noble homme messire Gérard seigneur de Montagu chevalier, conseiller et chambellan du roy nostre sire, fondateur de cette chapelle”[1060]. m (before 1336) BIETTE Cassinel, daughter of FRANÇOIS Cassinel & his wife --- (-1394, bur Sainte-Croix de la Bretonnerie, Paris). Père Anselme records her family[1061]. Merlet records, in his biography of her son Jean de Montagu, that his father Gérard de Montagu married “damoiselle Biette, fille de François Cassinel chevalier et sœur de Ferry évêque d’Auxerre, baron de Gallargues et depuis archevêque-duc de Reims” before 1336 when she and her husband founded “la chapelle Saint-Michel en la nef de l’église Sainte-Croix de la Bretonnerie à Paris”[1062]. Both Merlet and Kerrebrouck dismiss as unlikely the suggestion that she was the mistress of King Charles V, given that her son was born when the king would only have been 13 years old[1063]. An epitaph at Sainte-Croix de la Bretonnerie, Paris records the death of “noble homme messire Gérard seigneur de Montagu chevalier, conseiller et chambellan du roy nostre sire, fondateur de cette chapelle” and in 1394 of “noble dame Madame Biette de Cassinel dame de Montagu, femme dudit messire Gérard”[1064]. Gérard & his wife had seven children:

Merlet notes that Jean was recorded as of age in Oct 1366[1066]. Grand maître de l'hôtel of Charles VI King of France. Seigneur de Montagu et de Marcoussis. Vidame de Laonois. Pierre Cochon’s Chronique Normande records “un chevalier...messire Johan Montagu, grant mestre d’ostel du roy, lequel gouverna le royaume par l’espasse de xx anz et de plus”, who built “un chastel...Marcoussi, lequel cousta à faire plus de chinc chenz milles livres” and whose brothers were “l’un archevesque de Senz en Bourguogne, et l’autre evesque de Paris”, who was “pris et emprisonné et examiné” and 17 Oct 1409 “out le col trenché; et mené le corps au gibet”[1067]. The source includes no indication that he was suspected of being the son of the king. m as her first husband, JACQUELINE de la Grange, daughter of ETIENNE de la Grange & his wife Marie Dubois (-Angers 24 Jul 1422, bur Angers Saint-Jean). Her name and family origin are confirmed by the marriage contract of her son Charles, quoted below. She married secondly Pierre de Hérisson Seigneur de Boudy. Jean & his wife had four children:

(a) CHARLES de Montagu (1396-killed in battle Agincourt 25 Oct 1415). His parentage is confirmed by his marriage contract, quoted below. Vidame de Laonois. m (contract 6 Jan 1405, 1409) CATHERINE [Jacqueline] d'Albret, daughter of CHARLES d'Albret Comte de Dreux & his wife Marie de Sully. The Geste des Nobles records that “messire Jehan de Montagu...son filz” married “la fille de Monsieur Charles sire d’Alebret conte de Dreux et connestable de France”[1068]. The marriage contract between "Charles d’Albret connétable de France et Marie de Sully sa femme...Jacqueline leur fille" and “Charles fils de Jn Sgr de Montegu et de Marcoussis, Vidame de Laonois et de Jacqueline de la Granche sa femme” is dated 6 Jan 1404 (O.S.)[1069]. Broussillon’s extract of the same document names “Jeanne” as the daughter who was betrothed: the marriage contract between "Charles d’Albret et Marie de Sully...leur fille Jeanne" and “Charles fils de Jean de Montagu et de Marcoussis et de Jacqueline de la Grange” is dated 6 Jan 1404 (O.S.)[1070].

(b) ISABELLE de Montagu (-Lyon Oct 1429, bur Marcoussis, monastère des Célestins). The Geste des Nobles records that “messire Jehan de Montagu...sa première fille” married “le conte de Brayne et de Roucy”[1071]. m firstly (1398) JEAN [VI] Comte de Roucy et de Braine, son of HUGUES [II] Comte de Braine et de Roucy & his wife Blanche de Coucy Dame de Montmirail (-killed in battle Azincourt 25 Oct 1415, bur Braine Sainte-Ived). m secondly ([1416]) PIERRE de Bourbon Seigneur de Préaux, son of JACQUES de Bourbon Seigneur de Dargies, de Préaux, de Dangu et de Thury & his wife Marguerite de Préaux, dame de Préaux, Dangu et Thery (-murdered La Rochelle 11 Oct 1422).
