Chapter 1.    COMTES de GEVAUDAN

 

 

The territory of the former county of Gévaudan coincides broadly with the present-day French département of Lozère.  The first identified reference to a comte de Gévaudun refers to Comte Pons in 998.  However, his ancestors can be traced for three generations as shown below.  No further comte de Gévaudan is recorded after the death of Pons, which is dated to [1013/16].  The vicomtes de Millau are also recorded as vicomtes de Gévaudun during the 11th century (see Chapter 10.C of the present document).  This suggests that jurisdiction over the county must have passed to the comtes de Toulouse, although the primary source which confirms that this is correct has not yet been identified.  The vicomté de Gévaudan passed to the comtes de Provence in the late 11th century, as a result of the marriage of Girbert Vicomte de Gévaudan et de Millau with Gerberge, daughter of Geoffroy Comte de Provence.  It is not known whether the county of Gévaudan was still held by the comtes de Toulouse after that time. 

 

 

 

A.      COMTES de GEVAUDAN

 

 

1.         BERTELAND .  "Vivianus" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "Bertelandi genitoris mei et genitricis meæ Viviana, sive…Bernardi germani mei" by charter dated 898, which also specifies that the donor hoped that the property in question would pass to "senior meus Heralius" after his death[1]m VIVIANA, daughter of ---.  "Vivianus" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "Bertelandi genitoris mei et genitricis meæ Viviana, sive…Bernardi germani mei" by charter dated 898, which also specifies that the donor hoped that the property in question would pass to "senior meus Heraclius" after his death[2].  Berteland & his wife had two children: 

a)         BERNARD (-after 911).  "Vivianus" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "Bertelandi genitoris mei et genitricis meæ Viviana, sive…Bernardi germani mei" by charter dated 898, which also specifies that the donor hoped that the property in question would pass to "senior meus Heralius" after his death[3]

b)         VIVIEN (-after 898).  "Vivianus" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "Bertelandi genitoris mei et genitricis meæ Viviana, sive…Bernardi germani mei" by charter dated 898, which also specifies that the donor hoped that the property in question would pass to "senior meus Heralius" after his death[4]

 

 

1.         HERACLE (-after 898).  A charter dated 22 Apr 876 records "Bertranno vicis-comite" in "Nemause civitate" and "Eralii vicis-comite"[5].  "Eralii viciscomite" has not been identified positively, although his name suggests a connection with the future vicomtes de Polignac.  "Vivianus" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "Bertelandi genitoris mei et genitricis meæ Viviana, sive…Bernardi germani mei" by charter dated 898, which also specifies that the donor hoped that the property in question would pass to "senior meus Heralius" after his death[6]same person as…?  HERACLE (-[907/26]).  m GODA, daughter of ---.  "Bertrandus et uxor mea Emildis et Stephanus filius noster" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "genitoris mei et genetricis meæ Godanæ" by charter dated 937[7].  "Goda et filius meus Bertrandus" donated property "in pago Vellaico in vicaria de Vetula civitate in villa…Vallilias" to Saint-Julien de Brioude by charter dated Jun 971 (although the document would appear misdated if the reconstruction of this family is correct as shown here)[8].  Heraclius & his wife had one child: 

a)         BERTRAND (-after 943).  "Acfredus" donated property to Saint-Julien de Brioude, except the part belonging to "fideli meo Bertranno filio Eralii", by charter dated 11 Oct [927][9]Bertrandus et uxor mea Emildis et Stephanus filius noster" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "genitoris mei et genetricis meæ Godanæ" by charter dated 937[10].  "Bertrandus et et Emilgardis uxor eius et Stephanus, eorum filius et uxor eius Annanis" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude by charter dated 943[11].  "Goda et filius meus Bertrandus" donated property "in pago Vellaico in vicaria de Vetula civitate in villa…Vallilias" to Saint-Julien de Brioude by charter dated Jun 971 (although the document would appear misdated if the reconstruction of this family is correct as shown here)[12]m EMILDE, daughter of --- (-after 943).  "Bertrandus et uxor mea Emildis et Stephanus filius noster" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "genitoris mei et genetricis meæ Godanæ" by charter dated 937[13].  Settipani proposes tentatively[14] that she was the daughter of Etienne Vicomte de Brioude & his wife Ermengarde ---.  Bertrand & his wife had one child: 

i)          ETIENNE de Brioude (-before [975])"Bertrandus et uxor mea Emildis et Stephanus filius noster" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "genitoris mei et genetricis meæ Godanæ" by charter dated 937[15]

ETIENNE de Brioude, son of BERTRAND & his wife Emilde --- (-before [970/75]).  "Bertrandus et uxor mea Emildis et Stephanus filius noster" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "genitoris mei et genetricis meæ Godanæ" by charter dated 937[16].  "Stephanus filius quondam Bertrandi et Emildis" restored property "manso…Lacus" to Saint-Julien de Brioude which he had usurped after his father died by undated charter, signed by "domina Adalaiz…mariti sui Stephani atque filiorum suorum Poncii et Bertranni"[17].  According to Settipani, Etienne was not "Comte de Gévaudan", although his descendants by his second wife later possessed the counties of Gévaudan, Brioude and Forez[18]

m firstly ANNE, daughter of ---.  "Bertrandus et et Emilgardis uxor eius et Stephanus, eorum filius et uxor eius Annanis" donated property "in villa…Antonio" to Saint-Julien de Brioude by charter dated 943[19]

m secondly ([950/60]) as her first husband, ADELAIS d'Anjou, daughter of FOULQUES II "le Bon" Comte d’Anjou & his first wife Gerberge --- ([940/50]-1026, bur Montmajour, near Arles).  Her parentage and first marriage are confirmed by the Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy which names "comes Gaufridus cognomento Grisogonella…Pontius et Bertrandus eius nepotes…matre eorum Adalaide sorore ipsius"[20], the brothers Pons and Bertrand being confirmed in other sources as the sons of Etienne de Brioude, for example the charter dated 1000 under which "duo germani fratres…Pontius, alter Bertrandus" donated property to Saint-Chaffre for the souls of "patris sui Stephani matrisque nomine Alaicis"[21]"Stephanus filius quondam Bertrandi et Emildis" restored property "manso…Lacus" to Saint-Julien de Brioude which he had usurped after his father died by undated charter, signed by "domina Adalaiz…mariti sui Stephani atque filiorum suorum Poncii et Bertranni"[22]Adelais's second and third marriages are confirmed by Richer who records the marriage of Louis and "Adelaidem, Ragemundi nuper defuncti ducis Gothorum uxorem" and their coronation as king and queen of Aquitaine[23].  The Chronicon Andegavensi names "Blanchiam filiam Fulconis Boni comitis Andegavensis" as wife of the successor of "Lotharius rex Francorum", but confuses matters by stating that the couple were parents of "filiam Constantiam" wife of Robert II King of France[24].  The Chronicle of Saint-Maxence names "Blanchiam" as the wife of "Lotharius rex…Ludovicum filium" but does not give her origin[25]She was crowned Queen of Aquitaine with her third husband on the day of their marriage.  The Libro de Otiis Imperialibus names "Blanchiam" as wife of "Ludovicus puer [filius Lotharii]"[26].  Rodulfus Glaber refers to the unnamed wife of "Ludowicum" as "ab Aquitanis partibus uxorem", recounting that she tricked him into travelling to Aquitaine where "she left him and attached herself to her own family"[27]Richer records her marriage with "Wilelmum Arelatensem" after her divorce from Louis[28]Her fourth marriage is confirmed by the Historia Francorum which names "Blanca sorore Gaufridi comitis Andegavensis" as wife of "Guillelmi comitis Arelatensis"[29].  The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Blanche comitisse Arelatensis" as mother of "Constantia [uxor Robertus rex]", specifying that she was "soror Gaufridi Grisagonelli"[30].  The Gesta Consulum Andegavorum names "Blanca sorore eius" ( "eius" referring incorrectly to Foulques "Nerra" Comte d'Anjou) as wife of "Guillelmi Arelatensis comitis" and as mother of Constance, wife of Robert II King of France[31].  "Adalaiz comitissa" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1003[32].  This charter is subscribed by "Emma comitissa…Wilelmus comes", the second of whom was presumably the son of Adelais but the first of whom has not been identified.  "Pontius…Massiliensis ecclesie pontifex" issued a charter dated 1005 with the consent of "domni Rodhbaldi comitis et domne Adalaizis comitisse, domnique Guillelmi comitis filii eius"[33].  "Adalax comitissa mater Villelmi quondam Provintie comitis et Geriberga eque comitissa…eiusdem principis olim uxor" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille for the soul of their late son and husband respectively by charter dated 1018[34].  No explanation has been found for her having been named Adelais in some sources and Blanche in others, as it is difficult to interpret these documents to mean that they referred to two separate individuals.  Adelais's supposed fifth marriage is deduced from the following: Count Othon-Guillaume's wife is named Adelais in several charters[35], and Pope Benedict VIII refers to "domnæ Adeleidi comitissæ cognomento Blanchæ" with "nuruique eius domnæ Gerbergæ comitissæ" when addressing her supposed husband in a document dated Sep 1016[36], Gerberga presumably being Count Othon-Guillaume's daughter by his first wife who was the widow of Adelaide-Blanche d’Anjou's son by her fourth husband.  However, the document in question appears not to specify that "domnæ Adeleidi…" was the wife of Othon Guillaume and the extracts seen (the full text has not yet been consulted) do not permit this conclusion to be drawn.  It is perfectly possible that the Pope named Adelais-Blanche in the letter only in reference to her relationship to Othon Guillaume’s daughter.  If her fifth marriage is correct, Adelais would have been considerably older than her new husband, and probably nearly sixty years old when she married (Othon-Guillaume's first wife died in [1002/04]), which seems unlikely.  Another difficulty is presented by three entries dated 1018, 1024 and 1026 which appear to link Adelais to Provence while, if the fifth marriage was correct, she would have been with her husband (whose death is recorded in Sep 1026) in Mâcon.  These entries are: firstly, "Adalax comitissa mater Villelmi quondam Provintie comitis et Geriberga eque comitissa…eiusdem principis olim uxor" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille for the soul of their late son and husband respectively by charter dated 1018[37]; secondly, "Vuilelmus filius Rodbaldi" donated property "in comitatu Aquense in valle…Cagnanam" to Marseille Saint-Victor by charter dated 1024, signed by "Adalaiz comitissa, Vuilelmus comes filius Rodbaldi"[38]; and thirdly, a manuscript written by Arnoux, monk at Saint-André-lès-Avignon, records the death in 1026 of "Adalax comitissa"[39].  The necrology of Saint-Pierre de Mâcon records the death "IV Kal Jun" of "Adalasia comitissa vocata regali progenie orta"[40]She married secondly ([970/75]) [as his second wife,] Raymond IV Comte de Toulouse, thirdly (Vieux-Brioude, Haute-Loire 982, divorced 984) Louis associate King of the Franks [later Louis V King of the Franks], fourthly ([984/86]) as his second wife, Guillaume II "le Libérateur" Comte d'Arles Marquis de Provence, and fifthly (before 1016) as his second wife, Othon Guillaume Comte de Mâcon et de Nevers [Bourgogne-Comté].]  An enquiry dated 2 Jan 1215 records that "comitissa Blanca" was buried "apud Montem Majorem"[41]

Etienne & his first wife had [one possible child]:

1.         [EMILDE (-after [993/1002])Europäische Stammtafeln[42] names the wife of Rotbald [II] as "Emilde de Gévaudun" but the primary source on which this is based has not been identified.  Szabolcs de Vajay suggests[43] that she was the daughter of Etienne Vicomte de Gévaudan.  m ROTBALD [II] Comte de Provence, son of BOSON [II] Comte d'Arles & his wife Constantia --- (-[1008]).] 

Etienne & his second wife had [four] children:

2.         PONS (-murdered [26 Feb 1011/1016])"Stephanus filius quondam Bertrandi et Emildis" restored property "manso…Lacus" to Saint-Julien de Brioude which he had usurped after his father died by undated charter, signed by "domina Adalaiz…mariti sui Stephani atque filiorum suorum Poncii et Bertranni"[44]"Episcopus sedis Aniciensis Vuido" names "Pontii comitis nepotis sui fratrisque eius Bertrandi" in a charter dated 13 Apr 997[45]Comte de Gévaudan"Poncius…comes…Gabalitanensis telluris necnon et Forensis patriæ" donated "ecclesiam Langat…in comitatu Gabalitensi, aliam ecclesiam…Favairolas…" to Saint-Julien de Brioude, for the souls of "genitorum suorum Stephani et Alais et uxoris eius Theotbergæ et filiorum eius Stephani et Poncii vel fratrum eius Bertrandi et Willelmus et nepotum eius Stephani, Rotberti et Willelmi", by charter dated Feb [1010], signed by "Roberti vicecomitis, Willelmi fratris eius…"[46].  "Stephanus vicecomes Gabalitanensium cum coniuge mea Aiamolde" founded the monastery of Langogne "in comitatu Gabalitano in vicaria Miliacense in villa…Lingonia secus ripam fluvii Elerii", with the consent of "…Rigaldi fratris mei et Urbani, filiique eius Simonis, Pontii quoque comitis ac Bertrandi fratrum", and donated property including "in comitatu Vivariensi" by charter dated 998[47].  "Duo germani fratres…Pontius, alter Bertrandus" donated property to Saint-Chaffre for the souls of "patris sui Stephani matrisque nomine Alaicis" by charter dated 1000[48].  The Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy names "comes Gaufridus cognomento Grisogonella…Pontius et Bertrandus eius nepotes…matre eorum Adalaide sorore ipsius"[49]"Poncius…comes…Gabalitanensis" donated property to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "genitorum meorum Stephani et Alaiz et uxoris meæ Theotberganæ et filiis meis Stephani et Poncii, vel fratribus meis Bertrando et Villelmo et nepotibus meis [Stephanum], Robertum atque Villelmum" by charter dated Feb 1011, subscribed by "Stephanus vicecomes…Rotberti vicecomitis, W. fratris sui…"[50].  The Liber miraculorum Sanctæ Fidæ name "Arsendis, uxor Vuillelmi Tholosani comitis, fratris…Pontii" and specify that the latter was murdered by "Artaldo…privigno suo", in revenge for the repudiation of his mother, Pons's second wife[51]m firstly ---.  This first marriage is demonstrated by the chronology of Pons’s children which shows that they could not have been born from his marriage to Theutberga.  m secondly ([1001/08], repudiated) as her second husband, THEUTBERGA, widow of ARTAUD Comte [de Lyon et de Forez], daughter of ---].  "Poncius…comes…Gabalitanensis telluris necnon et Forensis patriæ" donated "ecclesiam Langat…in comitatu Gabalitensi, aliam ecclesiam…Favairolas…" to Saint-Julien de Brioude, for the souls of "genitorum suorum Stephani et Alais et uxoris eius Theotbergæ et filiorum eius Stephani et Poncii vel fratrum eius Bertrandi et Willelmus et nepotum eius Stephani, Rotberti et Willelmi", by charter dated Feb [1010], signed by "Roberti vicecomitis, Willelmi fratris eius…"[52].  Her first marriage is confirmed by the Liber miraculorum Sanctæ Fidæ which specifies that "Pontii" was murdered by "Artaldo…privigno suo"[53]m thirdly ---.  According to Settipani, Pons repudiated his second wife in order to marry a third wife but he cites no source which confirms this third marriage[54].  Pons & his first wife had [three] children: 

a)         ETIENNE (-murdered 1013)"Poncius…comes…Gabalitanensis telluris necnon et Forensis patriæ" donated "ecclesiam Langat…in comitatu Gabalitensi, aliam ecclesiam…Favairolas…" to Saint-Julien de Brioude, for the souls of "genitorum suorum Stephani et Alais et uxoris eius Theotbergæ et filiorum eius Stephani et Poncii vel fratrum eius Bertrandi et Willelmus et nepotum eius Stephani, Rotberti et Willelmi", by charter dated Feb [1010], signed by "Roberti vicecomitis, Willelmi fratris eius…"[55]Bishop of Clermont 1011. 

b)         PONS (-after Feb [1010]).  "Poncius…comes…Gabalitanensis telluris necnon et Forensis patriæ" donated "ecclesiam Langat…in comitatu Gabalitensi, aliam ecclesiam…Favairolas…" to Saint-Julien de Brioude, for the souls of "genitorum suorum Stephani et Alais et uxoris eius Theotbergæ et filiorum eius Stephani et Poncii vel fratrum eius Bertrandi et Willelmus et nepotum eius Stephani, Rotberti et Willelmi", by charter dated Feb [1010], signed by "Roberti vicecomitis, Willelmi fratris eius…"[56]

c)         [ADELAIDE .  Auguste Bernard quotes a charter dated “VIII Id Feb Regis Rodulpho regnante” under which Gérard donated the church of Saint-Pierre d’Aurec to the abbey of La Cluse which names his wife “Adalaix” and his sons Artaud and “Gauffredus seu Vuilelmus[57].  According to Auguste Bernard, she was the daughter of Pons de Gévaudun, but he does not cite the source on which this is based[58]m GERAUD Comte de Forez, son of ARTAUD [II] Comte de Forez & his wife Theutberga --- (-[5 Mar] after 1046). 

3.         BERTRAND"Stephanus filius quondam Bertrandi et Emildis" restored property "manso…Lacus" to Saint-Julien de Brioude which he had usurped after his father died by undated charter, signed by "domina Adalaiz…mariti sui Stephani atque filiorum suorum Poncii et Bertranni"[59]"Episcopus sedis Aniciensis Vuido" names "Pontii comitis nepotis sui fratrisque eius Bertrandi" in a charter dated 13 Apr 997[60]"Stephanus vicecomes Gabalitanensium cum coniuge mea Aiamolde" founded the monastery of Langogne "in comitatu Gabalitano in vicaria Miliacense in villa…Lingonia secus ripam fluvii Elerii", with the consent of "…Rigaldi fratris mei et Urbani, filiique eius Simonis, Pontii quoque comitis ac Bertrandi fratrum", and donated property including "in comitatu Vivariensi" by charter dated 998[61].  "Duo germani fratres…Pontius, alter Bertrandus" donated property to Saint-Chaffre for the souls of "patris sui Stephani matrisque nomine Alaicis" by charter dated 1000[62]"Poncius…comes…Gabalitanensis" donated property to Saint-Julien de Brioude for the souls of "genitorum meorum Stephani et Alaiz et uxoris meæ Theotberganæ et filiis meis Stephani et Poncii, vel fratribus meis Bertrando et Villelmo et nepotibus meis [Stephanum], Robertum atque Villelmum" by charter dated Feb 1011, subscribed by "Stephanus vicecomes…Rotberti vicecomitis, W. fratris sui…"[63].  The Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy names "comes Gaufridus cognomento Grisogonella…Pontius et Bertrandus eius nepotes…matre eorum Adalaide sorore ipsius"[64]

4.         [HUMBERGE [Ermengarde] ([970/75]-).  "Umberga" donated property to Sauxillanges for the souls of "senioris mei Vuillelmi et…filiorum meorum tam vivis quam etiam defunctis" by charter dated to [1000/10][65].  "Domni Stephani episcopi, domni Rotberti, domni Vuillelmi, Umbergane comitisse matris eorum" signed a charter dated to [1013/21] under which property was donated to Sauxillanges[66].  There is doubt about Humberge's parentage but the hypothesis shown here appears to provide the best solution to various chronological difficulties.  The Flandria Generosa names "Ermengardis comitissa Arvenensis" as sister of "Constantia regina Francorum", when outlining the basis for the consanguinity between their great-great-grandchildren, Baudouin VII Count of Flanders and [Hawise] de Bretagne, which provided the grounds for the couple's separation[67].  It has been assumed in many secondary sources[68] that this passage means that "Ermengarde" was the full sister of Queen Constance (who was the third wife of Robert II King of France) and therefore that she was the daughter of Guillaume [II] Comte de Provence by his second marriage to Adelais d'Anjou.  However, this is chronologically impossible.  The marriage of "Ermengarde's" daughter, also named Ermengarde, to Eudes II Comte de Blois, is dated to 1005 according to the Chronicle of Alberic de Trois Fontaines[69].  Even if this date is inaccurate, the estimated birth date of Ermengarde junior's eldest son is [1010], and the marriage of her daughter is dated to 1018 (although the chronology suggests that this may have been an infant betrothal or marriage).  Assuming that there is a degree of accuracy in these three dates, the daughter of "Ermengarde" Ctss d'Auvergne could not have been born later than [995] at the latest.  This places the birth of "Ermengarde" senior to [980] at the very latest, about five years before Adelais's marriage to Guillaume Comte de Provence.  Given that Adelais's third marriage to Louis V King of the West Franks was childless, and her second marriage to Raymond IV Comte de Toulouse was brief, it is therefore most likely that "Ermengarde" was Adelais's daughter by her first marriage to Etienne de Brioude.  Some corroboration for this hypothesis is found in the charter dated 1011 under which "Poncius comes Gabalitanensis" (who was the son of Adelais d'Anjou by her marriage to Etienne de Brioude) donated property to Saint-Julien de Brioude, for the souls of "genitorum suorum Stephani et Alais et uxoris eius Theotbergæ et filiorum eius Stephani et Poncii vel fratrum eius Bertrandi et Willelmus et nepotum eius Stephani, Rotberti et Willelmi", by charter dated Feb [1010], signed by "Roberti vicecomitis, Willelmi fratris eius…"[70].  In this scenario, Etienne, Robert and Guillaume would be the sons of Pons's full sister "Ermengarde" Ctss d'Auvergne.  However, this raises yet more difficulties.  The secondary sources also assume that "Ermengarde's" husband was Robert [I] Comte d'Auvergne.  However, the only known son of Comte Robert [I] was Guillaume [V] Comte d'Auvergne.  Assuming that the "nepotes" of Comte Pons are named in order of seniority in the 1011 charter, "Vuillelmi" would have been the youngest brother.  No other reference has been to found to his assumed older brothers Etienne and Robert.  In any case, it is unlikely that Guillaume [V] Comte d'Auvergne would have been born much before [995/1000] for consistency with the dates of his marriage and his death.  If this is correct, it would raise doubts about the use of the title "vicecomes" in the 1011 charter, as their father would still have been at the height of his power.  All these difficulties would be solved if the "nepotes" of Comte Pons were in fact the three known sons of Guillaume [IV] Comte d'Auvergne, not of Robert [I] Comte d'Auvergne.  If this is correct, "Ermengarde" would in fact have been "Humberge", who, as shown above, is named in other primary sources as the wife of Comte Guillaume.  m GUILLAUME [IV] Comte d'Auvergne, son of --- (-[1016]). 

 

 

 

B.      SEIGNEURS de CANILHAC

 

 

The seigneurie de Canilhac was located in the south-western part of the medieval county of Gévaudan on the left bank of the river Lot, about 10 kilometres north of Sévérac in Rouergue.  It now forms part of the commune of Banassac-Canilhac, in the present-day French département of Lozère, arrondissement Mende, canton La Canourgue.

1.         ALLEBERT de Canilhac (-after 3 Feb 1112).  “Allebertus de Caniliaco” swore allegiance to “Berengario nec ad filios tuos Ricard et Girbert” for the château of Canilhac and others by undated charter, probably dated to [1080/97][84].  “Gaufredi Porcelleti, Bernardi Bertrandi, Olleberti de Canilag” subscribed the charter dated 3 Feb 1112 under which “Gerberga comitissa Arelatensis” granted “filiam meam in conjugium...Dulcem” to “Raymundo Berengarii comiti”, together with “omni honore meo et cum...honore qui fuit Girberti comitis patris puellæ[85]

 

2.         BEATRIX de Canilhac .  She is named "Beatrig de Camillag" in the Mar 1208 charter quoted below which names her daughter.  The primary source which confirms her precise parentage has not been identified.  Beatrix must have been heiress to Canilhac, which passed to her grandson Déodat as shown below.  m GUY [IV] Seigneur de Sévérac, son of --- (-[10 Jun 1209/1211]). 

 

 

Déodat de Sévérac was the grandson of Guy [IV] Seigneur de Sévérac and his wife Béatrix de Canilhac who is named above. 

 

DEODAT de Sévérac, son of DEODAT [III] de Caylus [Seigneur de Sévérac] & his wife Irdoine de Sévérac Dame de Sévérac (-26 Jun [1270]).  The testament of Irdoine, dated 1 Nov 1220, specified that “Guizo mo fill” would inherit “el castel de Seveirac” and “Dausde mo fill...el castel de Canillac...que fo da ma maire[86]Seigneur de CanilhacD. dictus Chanillacus” confirmed donations to Aubrac made by “domina Beatrix avia et a domina comitissa matre mea...patris mei D. de Caslucio...ex parte mea pro castro de Canillac et ab alia parte nomine uxoris meæ pro castro de Sancto Urcisio donationes...per dominum Pontium de Sancto Urcisio patrem predictæ uxoris meæ” by charter dated 10 Jul 1241[87].  “Deodati de Canillac fratris de Guidonis de Sevrac” is named in a charter dated 1264[88].  The obituary of Chaudesaigues records the death 26 Jun of “Mossenhor Dyeudonat de Canilhac[89]

m (before 10 Jul 1241) METTIR de Saint-Urcise, daughter of PONS de Saint-Urcise & his wife ---.  “D. dictus Chanillacus” confirmed donations to Aubrac made “...nomine uxoris meæ pro castro de Sancto Urcisio donationes...per dominum Pontium de Sancto Urcisio patrem predictæ uxoris meæ” by charter dated 10 Jul 1241, subscribed by “Pontii de Santo-Urcisio[90].  Déodat and his wife “Mettir, qui déclare être majeure de 25 ans” confirmed donations to Aubrac by charter dated “le jour de la Saint-Pierre” 1245[91]

Déodat & his wife had two children: 

1.         MARQUES de Canilhac (-3 Nov [1298])His parentage is confirmed by his 15 Apr 1265 marriage contract cited below.  Seigneur de CanilhacThe obituary of Chaudesaigues records the death 3 Nov of “noble Marquès de Canilhac chevalier[92]m (contract 15 Apr 1265) ELEONORE de Châteauneuf, daughter of GUERIN [III] de Châteauneuf Seigneur d’Apchier & his wife Béatrix de Châteauneuf.  This couple’s marriage contract is dated 15 Apr 1265, her brother Guérin [IV] granting “ses droits sur les châteaux de Montjézieu et de Doalan...sur diverses terres dans la paroisse de Saint-Georges de Lobérac qui lui venaient de Béatrix de Châteauneuf sa mère”, in return for which Déodat and Marquès renounced any claim to the seigneurie d’Apchier[93].  The obituary of Chaudesaigues records the death of “Madona Elionos de Chanilhac[94].  Marquès & his wife had five children: 

a)         MARQUES de Canilhac (-[1350/59]).  His parentage is confirmed by the 15 Oct 1303 charter quoted below.  Seigneur de Canilhac.  A charter dated 15 Oct 1303 records the settlement of a dispute between “bone memorie dominum Marquesium dominum de Canilhaco militem, patrem domini Marquesii qui nunc est” and “dominum Henricum de Benavento militem” concerning “juridictione...castri Aurelle[95].  Albert Bishop of Mende confirmed “Odilo Guarini miles dominus de Turnello” in his fiefs by charter dated 14 Sep 1332, witnessed by “...Marquesio de Canilhaco...militibus...[96]. m firstly ([1298]) ALMOIS de Cenaret, daughter of PIERRE de Cenaret & his wife ---.  Marquès de Canilhac swore homage to Guillaume Durand Bishop of Mende for “des fiefs que la dame Almoïs son épouse, fille de Pierre de Cénaret” which formed her dowry by charter dated 1298[97]m secondly ([after 1315?]) BEATRIX de Roche-en-Régnier, daughter of GUIGUES [IV] Seigneur de Roche-en-Régnier & his wife Dauphine de la Tour (after 1298-before 1329).  The testament of “Dauphine dame de Roche, femme de...Guigue sire de Roche”, dated 25 Sep 1323, named “sa fille Béatrice femme de...Marquesius de Canilhac” as her universal heir[98].  Felgères notes her parentage and marriage, stating that Marquès de Canilhac was recorded as widower of Béatrix in a charter dated 1329[99].  She is named in the 1344 testament of her father (quoted below under her daughter Dauphine) and the 16 Mar 1348 charter of her daughter Eléonore, also quoted below.  m thirdly ([1329?]) ALIXENDE de Poitiers, daughter of GUILLAUME de Poitiers Seigneur de Saint-Vallier & his wife Luce de Beaudiner (-1351 or after).  A charter dated 27 Mar 1321 records the settlement of a dispute between "le comte de Joigny" and "Jean Delphin d’Auvergne…Guillaume de Poitiers pour luy pour Beatrix, Florie, Alisans ses seurs, et Monsieur Etienne dou Vissac ou nom…de Alaiz sa femme seur dudit Guillaume" concerning the succession of "Monsieur Beraut de Marqueil"[100].   A charter dated 12 Jun 1339 records a judgment relating to the dispute between "Beraldus Dalphini de Mercorio" and "Stephanus de Vissaco miles et dominus de Arlenco pro se et…Aelipdis uxoris suæ, et Ioannis Pagani militis domini de Mau et Floriæ de Pictavia eius uxoris, et Beatricis de Pictavia dominæ de Crussol, et heredum Guillelmi de Pictavia militis quondam, et Helixendis de Pictavia uxoris Marquesii domini Canilliaci militis"[101].  Marquès & his second wife had four children:

ii)         MARALDE de CanilhacMarquès Seigneur de Canilhac “comme tuteur des enfants nés de lui et de feu Béatrix sa femme, fille de Guigue seigneur de Roch” acknowledged receipt of money from “dudit Guigue” towards the dowry of “...Maralde sœur d’Aliénor mariée ‘a Hugues seigneur de Castronovo” and of “Aliénor autre sœur de la première Aliénor mariée à Gisbert seigneur de Thémines”, by charter dated 9 Jul 1338[104]m ([9 Jul 1338]) HUGUES Seigneur de Castelnau et de Calmont, son of ---. 

iii)        ELEONORE de Canilhac .  Marquès Seigneur de Canilhac “comme tuteur des enfants nés de lui et de feu Béatrix sa femme, fille de Guigue seigneur de Roch” acknowledged receipt of money from “dudit Guigue” towards the dowry of “...Maralde sœur d’Aliénor mariée ‘a Hugues seigneur de Castronovo” and of “Aliénor autre sœur de la première Aliénor mariée à Gisbert seigneur de Thémines”, by charter dated 9 Jul 1338[105]m ([9 Jul 1338]) GISBERT Seigneur de Thémines, son of ---. 

iv)        DAUPHINE de Canilhac (-before 1364)The Documens Historiques du Rouergue record her parentage and marriage, without citing the source on which this information is based[106]Her parentage is confirmed by the testament of [her maternal grandfather] “Guigon seigneur de Roche et de Posquières”, dated 1344, which provides dowry for “Dalphine de Canilhaco filie...filie nostre Beatricis uxorisque condam...domini de Canilhaco” to marry “dominum de Ceveyraco[107]The 14 Aug 1508 judgment concerning the Sévérac succession records that “Guido filius Deodati” married “Dalphinam de Canillat filiam quondam...Marchionis de Canillat” who was pregnant when her husband died and gave birth to “postumum...Guidone”, adding in a later passage that after her death “procuratoris dicti Guidonis postumis” initiated legal action against “Raymondum de Canillat cardinalem sancte crucis...fratrem dicti Marchionis de Canillat [vitafuncti]...terre et baronie de Canillat...[administrator] et Guillem comitem de Belloforti [---] patrem et...administratorem indem eius filius pro Marchione de Canillat [segrientis] et quosdam alios[108].  The participation of her son’s guardians in the lawsuit indicates that Delphine died before he reached the age of majority.  The precise wording of the reference to Guillaume [II] Rogier Comte de Beaufort as co-defendant in the lawsuit is difficult to follow, but he presumably represented the interests of his [second] wife Guérine de Canillac.  Guérine died before 1356, and her interest in Canillac must have been transferred to her infant son Marquis Rogier de Beaufort, presumably represented by his father as co-defendant.  m (before Sep 1339) GUY [VIII] Seigneur de Sévérac, son of DEODAT [IV] Seigneur de Sévérac & his wife Jeanne de Narbonne (-before 1340)

Marquès & his third wife had two children: 

v)         GUERINE de Canilhac (-before 1356).  A manuscript genealogy of the Beaufort family (date not specified) records that Guillelmus Rogier alias de Belfort” married firstly “Guerinam de Canilliaco[109].  The chronology of her husband’s family suggests that Guérine was her husband’s second wife.  The testament of “Guillelmus comes Bellifortis”, dated 27 Aug 1379, provided for “Rotgerius et Marquesius [...de Belloforti...militis Canilhacii domini et vicecomitis Motæ, including property left by “Garinæ de Canilhaco matri dicti Marquesii”] mei filii...[110].  The primary source which confirms Guérine’s precise parentage has not been identified, but the 14 Aug 1508 judgment quoted below under her supposed aunt Delphine names her husband as co-defendant.  The chronology, and the inheritance of Canilhac by her descendants, suggests that she was the daughter of Marquis.  This would also explain the introduction of the name “Marquis”, given to Guérine’s son, into the Rogier de Beaufort family.  m as his [second] wife, GUILLAUME [II] Rogier Comte de Beaufort, son of GUILLAUME [I] Rogier Seigneur de Rosier & his wife Marie de Chambon (-after 27 Aug 1379). 

vi)        JEANNE de Canilhac (1351-).  Baluze names “Ioannam natam anno 1351”, noting that Jean II “le Bon” King of France de sacro fonte suscepit”, without citing the source which confirms this information[111]

b)         DEODAT de Canilhac (-1367).  Felgères records his parentage and ecclesiastical appointments[112].  Monk at Aniane.  Bishop of Saint-Flour 1346.  Bishop of Maguelonne 1361. 

c)         PIERRE de Canilhac (-1361).  Felgères records his parentage and ecclesiastical appointments[113].  Monk at Marseille Saint-Victor.  Abbé de Montmajour 1348.  Abbé de Saint-Pons de Thomières 1353.  Elected bishop of Maguelonne 1361, but died before his installation. 

d)         RAYMOND de Canilhac (-Avignon 20 Jun 1373).  The marriage contract between “Odilonem de Tornello filium...Odilonis Guarini domini de Tornello” and “Elionors filiam...Marquesii domini de Canilhaco” is dated 19 Jul 1305, guaranteed by “...dominus Raymundus de Canillaco canonicus Aniciensis...[114].  Archbishop of Toulouse 1345.  Cardinal 1350.  Bishop of Palestrina 1361.  He is named as co-defendant in the 14 Aug 1508 judgment concerning the Sévérac succession quoted above under his niece Delphine. 

e)         ELEONORE de Canilhac The marriage contract between “Odilonem de Tornello filium...Odilonis Guarini domini de Tornello” and “Elionors filiam...Marquesii domini de Canilhaco” is dated 19 Jul 1305, guaranteed by “dominus Guarinus, dominus Apcherii et dominus Raymundus de Rochafolio militis, dominus Raymundus de Canillaco canonicus Aniciensis, et Broerius de Petra”, with the consent of “Randonis de Tornello propositi Aniciensis fratris sui, et filiorum suorum...Randonis et Poncii...domina Raimbauda uxor sua...ex successione Guigonis emancipati filii sui jam defuncti[115]m (contract 19 Jul 1305) ODILON GUERIN [V] de Châteauneuf, son of ODILON GUERIN [IV] de Châteauneuf Seigneur du Tournel & his wife Raimbaude d’Anduze ([1270/80?]-[23 Apr/3 Dec] 1352, bur Tournel Saint-Julien). 

2.         MARALDE de Canilhac This couple’s marriage contract is dated 15 Apr 1265, her husband Guérin [IV] transferring to her brother “des rentes assignées par eux sur le mas de Rospoy pour partie de la dot de Maralde[116]m (contract 15 Apr 1265) GUERIN [IV] de Châteauneuf Seigneur d’Apchier, son GUERIN [III] de Châteauneuf Seigneur d’Apchier & his wife Béatrix de Châteauneuf (-after [16 Nov?] 1301, bur cemetery of Franciscans of Saint-Chely). 

 

 

The following person is named in the Documens Historiques du Rouergue as father of Marquès and Raymond who are named above, without citing sources on which this information is based[117].  He is not named by Felgères.  There was presumably confusion with the older Marquès de Canilhac shown above.  No other indication has yet been found that Guillaume existed. 

 

1.         [GUILLAUME de CanilhacSeigneur de CanilhacThe Documens Historiques du Rouergue names Guillaume as son of Déodat de Sévérac Seigneur de Canilhac, without citing the source on which this information is based[118].  The same source dates his marriage to [1280].  No primary source has been identified which names Guillaume.  m ([1280?]) --- de Deaulx, daughter of ---.  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue dates Guillaume’s marriage to “N--- de Deaulx, sœur du cardinal Bertrand de Deaulx, vice-chancelier de l’église romaine” to [1280], without citing the source on which this information is based[119].] 

 

 

 

C.      CHÂTEAUNEUF

 

 

Châteauneuf-de-Randon lies about 10 kilometres north-east of Mende, in the present-day French département of Lozère, arrondissement Mende, canton Châteauneuf-de-Randon.  Brunel identifies “les châteaux de Randon, de Châteauneuf et de La Garde en partie, de Belvezet, du Chaylar, d’Altier, de Puy-Laurent, de Planchamp et des Baumes” as the territories within the baronnie de Randon, all held in fief from the bishop of Mende, citing the 1307 enquiry (known as the “Paréage”) into the respective rights in the area of the king of France and the bishop of Mende[120]

Of the other main family properties, Le Tournel (now Saint-Julien-du-Tournel) is located about 5 kilometres east of Mende, canton Mont-Lozère-et-Goulet, and Apchier (now Saint-Chely-d’Apchier), about 25 kilometres north-west of Châteauneuf-de-Randon, canton Saint-Chély-d’Apchier.  In medieval times, all the family properties lay within the county of Gévaudan. 

The reconstructions of the Châteauneuf family provided by Père Anselme[121] and Burdin in his Documents historiques sur la province de Gévaudan[122] include few primary source references.  They are both suspect.  We are on firmer ground with Brunel, who provides numerous primary source citations in his study of the early 13th century poetess Almois de Châteauneuf[123].  Remize’s 1921 study of Allenc is also thorough.  Philippe (his study of Le Tournel) and Stroński provide many other primary sources, but their reconstructions are both shaky.  Europäische Stammtafeln seems to have incorporated many of the errors[124].  The following reconstruction aims to resolve the anomalies. 

 

 

ORIGINS, SEIGNEURS de RANDON

 

 

Two siblings: 

1.         [GUILLAUME [I] de Châteauneuf (-after 22 Aug 1078).  Père Anselme records Guillaume de Châteauneuf “domicellus miles” in a charter dated 22 Aug 1078 recording “[une] obligation à noble Artaude de Chateauneuf sa sœur, femme de Ponce de Brion chevalier” relating to “sa portion des biens du Vivarais[125]m ---.  Père Anselme says that the name of Guillaume’s wife is unknown[126]Burdin records his marriage contract with “Antoinette de Mercœur” dated 17 Jan 1057[127].  This person has not been identified in the family of the seigneurs de Mercœur (see the document AUVERGNE).  In addition, the name “Antoinette” sounds anachronistic.  Remize suggests that, if the connection with Mercœur is correct, Guillaume [I]’s wife could have been the niece of Odilon de Mercœur Abbé de Cluny (died 1048), which could explain the introduction of the name “Odilon” into the Châteauneuf family[128].  “Eustorge” is also a name found in the Mercœur family (see below)] 

2.         [ARTAUDE de ChâteauneufPère Anselme records Guillaume de Châteauneuf “domicellus miles” in a charter dated 22 Aug 1078 recording “[une] obligation à noble Artaude de Chateauneuf sa sœur, femme de Ponce de Brion chevalier” relating to “sa portion des biens du Vivarais[129]m PONS de Brion [Briand?], son of ---.] 

 

 

The [9 Apr 1126/19 Jul 1131] charter cited below records “G---“ as father of the brothers Guérin/Garin and Odilon.  Père Anselme suggests that “Eugaris de Châteauneuf” (referring to the 1134 charter, cited below, in which “Garis” [Guérin/Garin] swore allegiance to the bishop of Mende) was the possible son of Guillaume [I][130].  From a chronological point of view, an intervening generation seems likely given the probably birth of the two brothere in the late 1090s/early 1100s.  Incidentally, Remize indicates that Père Anselme’s “Eugaris” was the “forme romane de : Moi, Guérin[131]

 

1.         G--- [Guigues/Guillaume/Guérin/Garin?] [de Châteauneuf] (-before 9 Apr 1126).  He is named “G.”, father of Guérin and Odilon, in the [9 Apr 1126/19 Jul 1131] charter quoted below.  He presumably died before 9 Apr 1126, the date of the grant of Randon to his sons.  Remize suggests that his full name was Guérin and that he was the same person as Guérin co-seigneur de Mézenc[132], but it seems more likely that “G---“ was descended from Guillaume [I] de Châteauneuf who is named above.  “G.” could also represent “Guglielmus/Guillaume” or “Guigues”, both names featuring in the Châteauneuf family.  m ---.  No source has been identified which names G’s wife.  Burdin records the marriage contract of “Eugaris [=Garin/Guérin, see above] de Châteauneuf” with “Marie fille du comte d’Auvergne” dated 28 Aug 1098[133].  She has not been identified in the family of the comtes d’Auvergne (see the document AUVERGNE).  G--- & his wife had two children:

v)         [other brothers? (-after 1155).  Guillaume [II] having at least two other brothers is confirmed by the Histoire Générale de Languedoc which records that “Guillaume de Randon et ses frères” donated their possessions at “Chabrollières” to Chambons, confirmed in 1155 (no source reference)[170].] 

b)         ODILON [de Châteauneuf] (-after 9 Apr 1126)Co-seigneur de Randon: Ramon Berenguer [III] Comte de Barcelona (“Ramundus comes Barchinone et Provincie marchio et conjux mea Dulcia et filii mei Ramundus et Berengarius”) granted “castrum...Rardo [Rando]” to “Garino et Odilo fidelibus nostris et uxoribus vestris et filiis et filiabus vestris in perpetuum”, as well as “honorem vel fevum filiorum Guillelmi de Petra...cum filiabus suis”, by charter dated 9 Apr 1126[171].  “Garinus et O. filii G.” swore homage to Comte Ramon Berenguer [III] for “totam tuam honorem...castrum de Rardone” by undated charter, dated to [9 Apr 1126/19 Jul 1131][172]Remize suggests that Odilon must have ceded his rights in Randon as he is not named later[173], although he may simply have died soon after swearing homage.  Remize suggests that Odilon was ancestor of “la branche du Tournel”, unless he died childless[174]m ([9 Apr 1126]) --- de Peyre, daughter of GUILLAUME de Peyre & his wife ---.  Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by the 9 Apr 1126 charter quoted under her husband.  [same person as...? Odilon Guerin [I] de Châteauneuf Seigneur du Tournel.  No primary source has been found which confirms this co-identity.  Various theories about the origins of the Châteauneuf-Tournel family are discussed at the beginning of the Tournel section.  A simple solution, which fits the chronology, is that he was the same person as Odilon co-Seigneur de Randon.  Remize suggests that “Odilon...doit se rattacher...aux Tournel[175].] 

 

 

The identity of Randon de Châteauneuf, named as father of Valborge in the 18 Jul 1219 charter quoted below, has not been confirmed.  As suggested above, “Randon” may initially have been used as a nickname.  There appear to be two possibilities:

·       he was Guillaume [II] de Châteauneuf co-Seigneur de Randon (-after 1175).  Brunel identifies “Randon” as Guillaume [II][176]Europäische Stammtafeln adopts this idea, naming Ermengarde (Valborge’s father) as Guillaume’s second wife[177].  The suggestion is reasonable considering that, as shown below, Valborge’s descendants were associated with Altier, which Brunel identifies as one of the territories within the baronnie de Randon[178]This co-identity appears confirmed by a charter dated 1326, recording a claim by Guillaume de Châteauneuf précepteur de Jalès” against “Guillaume de Randon”, which notes the confirmation made in 1218 by “Randonem de Castro Novo filium G. lo Meschi” and by “predecessores suos et specialiter per Guilhermum de Randonum avum suum[179]

·       another possibility is that he was Guillaume [Randon] de Châteauneuf, son of Guillaume [II].  As noted above, it appears likely that Guillaume [II] had an older son in order to explain why his son Raymond did not inherit Randon.  This second possibility is also consistent with the 1326 charter cited above, assuming that the son was also named Randon/Guillaume. 

The choice between these two possibilities can only be checked with more precise knowledge about Valborge’s chronology.  Her birth is currently estimated tentatively to [1170/85] which is broad enough to be compatible with either case. 

 

1.         RANDON de Châteauneuf, son of --- (-before 1207).  Randon is named as the deceased father of Valborge in the 18 Jul 1219 charter quoted below.  m ERMENGARDE, daughter of ---.  She is named as mother of Valborge in the 18 Jul 1219 charter quoted below, the wording of which is unclear whether she was alive or deceased at the time.  Randon & his wife had one child: 

a)         VALBORGE de Châteauneuf ([1170/85?]-after 18 Jul 1219).  Her birth and marriage dates are estimated tentatively based on the chronology of her descendants.  Na Valborges de Rando...et domino Guigoni viro meo” swore allegiance to the bishop of Mende by charter dated 1217[180]G. Mesch. fils de Na Wa de Saisac”, acting as proxy for “Na Valborges, ma moller filla sai en reire d’En Rando et de N’ Esmenjarts”, swore homage to “li gleisa de Memde…l’evesque W” by charter dated 18 Jul 1219[181].  Remize provides a slightly different version of this document which records Eu G. Meschi, fils de na Wa de Saisac” swearing homage as proxy for “na Valborges ma molher, filla sai en reire de n Randon e de n Esmengarda[182]Remize records that Valborge brought [la moitié de Châteauneuf], les châteaux du Chaylar [Cheylart], de Belvezet” to her husband, citing an extract of his version of the 18 Jul 1219 suggesting that her husband swore homage on her behalf for those castles[183]m ([1190/1200?]) GUIGUES Meschin, son of GUIGUES Meschin [I] de Châteauneuf Seigneur du Tournel & his wife Guillaumette Dame de Saissac/Ceissac ([1155/65?]-after 18 Jul 1219). 

 

 

The relationships between the following persons and the Châteauneuf family members shown above have not been ascertained.  Their common connections with Luc and Joyeuse suggest that they were related to each other. 

 

1.         GUERIN [Bermond] de Châteauneuf (-after 1162).  Seigneur de Luc: “Guérin Bermond de Châteauneuf, prince de Luc” donated his property “au mandement des Salelles” to Jalès in 1155[184].  “Guérin Bermond de Châteauneuf, prince de Luc” donated “unum mansum ad grassum Vilaret” to Jalès by charter dated 1162, witnessed by “Armandus de Garda, Ludovicus de Garda, Bertrandus de Castronovo de Jauiosa, Fulcho de Castronovo, milites...” and “Do Heracleo de Castronovo monacho monasterii Sancti Theofredi, Do Petro Heraclei milite dicti ordinis hospitalis...[185].  None of the witnesses have otherwise been identified as members of the Châteauneuf family.  The date of the second document suggests that the donor was not the same person as Guérin, brother of Guillaume [II], assuming that the 1157 charter quoted above is correctly dated.  The reference to “Bermond” has not been explained.  If these two documents are correctly dated, the reference to “Luc” is surprising (“prince de Luc” is anachronistic) as one of the properties of the Anduze family (in which “Bermond” was commonly used) and brought to the Joyeuse branch of the Châteauneuf family in the mid-13th century (see below).  These anomalies suggest that the 1155 and 1162 charters are suspect. 

 

2.         BERTRAND de Châteauneuf de Joyeuse (-after 1162).  “Guilhermus de Randone” donated “mansum...Grossum Villatum et illud de Grossofavo” to Jalès, for the soul of “fratris mei Garini Bruni”, by charter dated 1162, witnessed by “...Bertrandus de Castronovo de Javiosa, Falco de Castronovo, Bertrandus de Castronovo milites...[186]

 

3.         GUERIN de Randon (-after 1207).  “…Guarino de Randon…” witnessed the charter dated Jul 1198 which records the settlement of a dispute between Raymond VI Comte de Toulouse and the bishop of Viviers[187]Stroński suggests that Guérin was the son of Guillaume [II] (see above)[188]. The connection between his supposed daughter and Joyeuse suggests that Guérin may have been the son of Bertrand de Châteauneuf de Joyeuse who was named in 1162 (see above).  A charter dated 1207 records property which “Guigo de Castro Novo...Garinus de Castro Novo” had “in castro de Randone[189]

The relationships between the following persons and the Châteauneuf family have not been ascertained.  Presumably they could have been cousins of the brothers Guérin/Garin and Odilon (who received Randon in 1126) or sons of those cousins.

SEIGNEURS de MEZENC

 

 

The location of “Mézenc” in Gévaudan has not been identified.  Remize suggests that the following two groups of “Seigneurs du Mézenc” were connected with the Châteauneuf family[225].  The connection is explicit in the documents cited below only in the case of Bertrand.  One explanation could be that his mother was a Châteauneuf and that he adopted his mother’s family name. 

 

1.         HUGUES (-after [19] Aug [1062]).  Seigneur du Mézenc.  A charter dated [19] Aug [1062] “regnante Philippo rege” records donations to Saint-Chaffre made by “dominis de Mezengo...Stephano, Jarentone, Bertrando, Petro, Hugone, Geraldo, Petro, cum uxoribus et filiis[226]Remize names him “Hugues de Châteauneuf[227], although it is unclear from his text why he singled out Hugues from the list of donors in this charter. 

 

 

Three brothers:

1.         PONS (-[1096/1100], bur Châteauneuf Saint-Julien).  Co-Seigneur du Mézenc.  A charter dated Dec 1096 records donations to Saint-Chaffre by “III milites ex Misenco castro”, leaving on crusade for Jerusalem, subscribed by “Petrus Bastarcius cum omnibus fratribus, Pontius cum Bertrando fratre suo, Petrus Bertrandi, Geraldus Pilans Contorem et Petrus Faidi”, the first three being named later in the document “prædicti domini de Mizenco” when recording their individual donations[228].  His place of burial is indicated by the [1096/1118] charter quoted below under his brothers.  His omission from the 1100 charter quoted below suggests that Pons died before that date.  m ---.  The name of Pons’s wife is not known.  Pons & his wife had one child: 

a)         [PONS .  Remize suggests that this second Pons was the son of the earlier Pons, and “l’auteur des Châteauneuf de Boulières, seigneurs et barons de Rochebonne” (Remize does not explain his basis for the last point)[229].  Seigneur de Contagnet, near Borée[230]: an undated charter records the donation of “ecclesia Sancti Juliani de Castro Novo”, held by “dominis eiusdem castri”, to the bishop of Viviers made after the burial there of “uno ex eis...Pontio” by “alii duo fratres Bertrandus, Girinus”, and another charter the donation “similiter” of “ecclesia Sanctæ Mariæ de Boreia” to Saint-Chaffre made by “alio nomine Pontio, domino castelli juxta ipsam ecclesiam positi[231].] 

2.         BERTRAND de Châteauneuf (-after 1100).  Co-Seigneur du Mézenc.  A charter dated Dec 1096 records donations to Saint-Chaffre by “III milites ex Misenco castro”, leaving on crusade for Jerusalem, subscribed by “Petrus Bastarcius cum omnibus fratribus, Pontius cum Bertrando fratre suo, Petrus Bertrandi, Geraldus Pilans Contorem et Petrus Faidi”, the first three being named later in the document “prædicti domini de Mizenco” when recording their individual donations[232].  An undated charter records the donation of “ecclesia Sancti Juliani de Castro Novo”, held by “dominis eiusdem castri”, to the bishop of Viviers made after the burial there of “uno ex eis...Pontio” by “alii duo fratres Bertrandus, Girinus[233]Remize dates this charter to [1096/1119][234], although the absence of Pons from the next document suggests [1096/1100].  A charter dated 1100 records the donation of alia ecclesia, juxta Chanaico sita...sancti Apollinaris” to “Bertrandi reclusi sancte Marie de Piperaco” [Pibrac], made by “milites Petrus...et Hautbertus et Guido frater eius de Aboreias...”, with the support of “Petrus de Fays et uxor sua et domus eius tota, Bertrandus de Castronovo et Giris frater eius; Armandus, Guigo, G. de Forcadas cum filiis suis, Garentes de Canbarliac, et Adraldus et Guido, et Villelmus Petri[235]

3.         GUERIN [Garin?] (-after 1100).  Co-Seigneur du Mézenc.  An undated charter records the donation of “ecclesia Sancti Juliani de Castro Novo”, held by “dominis eiusdem castri”, to the bishop of Viviers made after the burial there of “uno ex eis...Pontio” by “alii duo fratres Bertrandus, Girinus[236]Remize dates this charter to [1096/1119][237], although the absence of Pons from the next document suggests [1096/1100].  A charter dated 1100 records the donation of alia ecclesia, juxta Chanaico sita...sancti Apollinaris” to Pibrac with the support of “...Bertrandus de Castronovo et Giris frater eius...[238].  Remize suggests that Guérin co-seigneur de Mézenc was the same person as “G--- de [Châteauneuf]”[239], but it seems more likely that the latter was descended from Guillaume [I] de Châteauneuf (named 22 Aug 1078). 

 

 

 

SEIGNEURS d’ALLENC et de SAINT-REMIZE

 

 

The 18 Jul 1219 charter quoted below confirms that this branch of the family held an unspecified part of Châteauneuf, confirmed as ¼ by the charters dated 16 Apr 1292, 2 Dec 1322, and 18 Oct 1342 quoted below.  Père Anselme names “Guy de Chateauneuf”, husband of “Assumens”, as son of Guillaume [II] (see above) (no source cited) adding that he was ancestor of “la branche des seigneurs de Joyeuse[240].  He does not name his other wife Almodis or any of the descendants of this marriage shown below.  Europäische Stammtafeln provides another version, noting “Bertrand de Châteauneuf Seigneur de Joyeuse”, brother of Guillaume [II], as father of “Guy de Châteauneuf Seigneur de Joyeuse” (shown below as Guigues [II]), the husband of “Almoys la troubadouresse”, with their two sons Guigues (father of Dragonnet de Joyeuse) and Guillaume (father of Guigues husband of Poitevine)[241].  The suggestion about Guigues’s parentage is presumably based on Remize, who names “Guy de Châteauneuf peut-être fils de Bertrand de Châteauneuf de Joyeuse (1162)[242].  At first sight, it seems a reasonable suggestion given the common connection with Joyeuse.  However, it ignores the other suggestion by Roche that Guigues, son of Guigues [II], married Vierne “dame de Luc, Pradelles, Joyeuse en partie de Genolhac”, daughter of Guérin de Randon[243].  It also ignores the absence of Joyeuse from the list of the territories of the family shown below which were divided under the 3 Apr 1255 agreement.  It seems more likely that Vierne’s father was the son of Bertrand de Châteauneuf de Joyeuse.  Unfortunately, Europäische Stammtafeln has turned Remize’s suggestion into fact

 

GUIGUES de Châteauneuf, son of --- (-[31 Jul 1213/18 Jul 1219]).  “Guigo de Castro Novo” witnessed a charter dated 1198[244].  Remize names “Guy de Châteauneuf qualifié de comptor et de baron” who “paraît être le père de Guy de Châteauneuf auteur de la branche de Joyeuse et de Guillaume de Châteauneuf auteur de la branche de Tine-St. Remèze”, dated to end-12th century[245]Guigo Meschinus et...Odil Garinus eius filius” donated pasture “in Berchadura et in Cumba plana et in Trabuco” to Franquevaux “de Puteo de las Olmeadas usque in Boibo, veluti flumen Olti...” by charter dated 22 Mar 1198 (O.S.), witnessed by “G. de Castronovo lo cumtor...[246].  “Guigo de la Garda”, by charter dated 19 Jul 1207, swore allegiance to Guillaume Bishop of Mende, guaranteed by “Gau. de La Garda frater eius...Galterius de La Garda...Guillelmus de La Garda…G. de Castronovo dominis…Guigo de Castro novo contor et G. Meschinus junior”, witnessed by “…Brunel de Castronovo…[247].  A charter dated 31 Jul 1213 settled a dispute between “Gui[gonem] de Castronovo” and the chapter of Mende about rights “super villis de Veyrinas et de Lalberc”, witnessed by “Bermondenes, P. de la Garda, W. Delemh [d’Allenc], Guigo de la Garda...” [no “Châteauneuf witnesses][248].  “Guigo de Castronovo” acknowledged the rights of the chapter of Mende in “villa de Veirinas...Alberc...la Prada...Peloza” and granted rights in “fructus et obventiones et census” in compensation for unjustly levying taxes by charter dated 1213, witnessed by “Bn de Senaret, R. Peire, P. de la Garda, R. Blanc, W. Delems, S. Bermondencs...Bt de Chastelnou...[249].  Remize highlights that Veyrines and Laubert formed part of the territories divided between Guigues [II]’s son and grandson under the 3 Apr 1255 charter cited below[250].  Veyrines in also mentioned in the 7 Oct 1229 charter of Guigues’s son Guillaume.  Guigues presumably died before the 18 Jul 1219 homage of his son Guillaume, citred below. 

m ([before 1198]?) ALMODIS, daughter of --- (-[after 18 Jul 1219]).  She is named as mother of Guillaume in the 18 Jul 1219 charter quoted below, the absence of reference to her decease suggesting that she was alive at that date.  Père Anselme records that the wife (whom he calls “Assumens”, see below) of “Guy” “vivoit avec son mary en 1198” (presumably relating to a charter which has not been found)[251]

[Lavaud edited chansons attributed to “la Dame de Casteldoze”, one of which names “Dompna na Mieils[252].  Brunel suggests a correction to “N’ Almurs” and that she was Almodis, wife of Guigues[253].  Another poem records that “N’Iseus de Capnion” begged “ma dompna Almucs de Castelnou” to pardon “a’N Gigo de Tornen qu’era sos cavaliers” who had abandoned her[254].  Brunel suggests that “Gigo de Tornen” was Guigues Meschin de Châteauneuf Seigneur de Tournel (died after 9 Apr 1269), noting also an earlier alternative theory which identified him as Guigues Seigneur de Tournon (named 1211/26 according to Europäische Stammtafeln[255])[256].  Assuming that the poetess was a member of this branch of the Châteauneuf family, it seems chronologically more likely that she was a daughter of Guigues and Almodis.] 

[The mother of Guigues’s second son Guigues is named “Assumens” in the 4 Apr 1255 charter cited below.  Remize suggests that his two marriages “paraissent problématiques”, noting the existence of two manuscripts of the 3 Apr 1255 document, only one of which names the mother of Guigues (the uncle), son of Guigues [257].  He also notes another part of the manuscript which refers to Guigues (the nephew) inheriting “les autres biens qui furent de feu Guy de Châteauneuf père du dit Guy oncle, ou de dame Assumens sa femme…”, which suggests that “Assumens” was also the grandmother of Guigues (nephew).  Remize therefore suggests that Almodis and “Assumens” were the same person, adding that “quelque copiste a mal lu le nom d’Almois (roman : Almuecs) et l’a transformé en ce mot bizarre d’Assumens qui est inconnu, comme nom de femme, dans nos anciens textes gévaudanais?”.]    

Guigues & his wife had three children: 

1.         GUILLAUME de Châteauneuf ([after 1205?]-[7 Oct 1229/1247]).  “Wilhems de Castelnou fils de n Almois”, renouncing the benefit of minority (“renuncian…ad exceptio e benefici de menor”), swore homage to Guillaume Bishop of Mende for “la mia part del chastel de Chastel nou…” by charter dated 18 Jul 1219, witnessed by “G. Gaucelin, Hug. del Graner, B. de Senaret, R. Peire, Hug. Baili, R. Blanc, S. Bermondenc…[258].  His renunciation of rights of minority suggests that he was still a minor.  The same phrase is found in the following document, suggesting that Guillaume was born after 1205.  “W[illelmum] de Castronovo”, renouncing the benefit of minority (“renunciavit...beneficio minoris etatis”), agreed rights over “duobus mansis...a Villasola...Lunam...et super villam de Veyrinis et...a Malarsa” with the chapter of Mende, brokered by “Hugonem de Granerio et Falconem de Castronovo et...dompnum A[rmandum] de Petra prepositum Mimatensem”, with “dominum G[uigonem] Meschi et dominum O[dilonem] filium domini O[dilonis] Garini et Petrum de Duobus Canibus dominum de Montauros” as guarantors, by charter dated 7 Oct 1229[259]He is named as deceased in the 1247 charter quoted below.  m MARAGDE, daughter of --- (-after 13 Aug 1278).  A “Mémoire servant à établir la filiation des anciens et illustres seigneurs de Châteauneuf” records that, by charter dated 13 Aug 1278, “Maragde, Pétronille [Peytavine] et Marquise de Châteauneuf, ladite Maragde mère de Guy de Châteauneuf chevalier, ladite Pétronille sa femme, et ladite Marquise sa fille” confirmed the sale of “l’affar de la Panouse” made by “Guillaume de Châteauneuf fils de Pétronille et frère de Marquise” to Chaise-Dieu[260]Europäische Stammtafeln names her “Marguerite 1246”[261].  Guillaume & his wife had one child: 

a)         GUIGUES de Châteauneuf ([before 1230?]-[25 Aug 1268/13 Aug 1278]).  A charter dated 6 Jul 1247 records a dispute between dominum Guigonem de Castronovo militem et Guigonem nepotem suum” and the commander of Jalès relating to pasture “de Mercoyra et…censum…de Pelosa” [Mercoire and Pelouse], naming “Guilhermus de Johanas qui renunciavit minoris etatis benefficio…dominus Garinus de Nava” as guarantors, witnessed by “…Palet de Castronovo…[262].  A charter dated 1247 records an agreement between dominus Guigo de Castro Novo miles filius quondam Guigonis de Castro Novo” and “Guigo de Castro Novo nepos eiusdem” dividing the territories previously held by “quondam dicti domini Guigonis de Castro Novo patris dicti domini Guigonis avunculi, vel domine Assumens uxoris eiusdem, vel Guillelmi de Castro Novo patris quondam dicti Guigonis nepotis[263].  The wording of this document suggests that Guigues was an adult at the time, so maybe born not later than [1230] considering the chronology of his descendants.  “Guigo de Castronovo filius quondam domini Guillelmi de Castronovo” sold “la moitié indivise du mas de Coulagnes-Basses” to “Guigoni Morres” by charter dated 1254[264]By charter dated 3 Apr 1255 “sr Guigon de Chateauneuf ecuyer fils jadis de…Guigon de Chateauneuf” and “Guigon de Chateauneuf son neveu majeur de 25 ans” agreed the division of their properties in the baronnie de Randonnat, recording the properties previously held by “sr Gugon de Chateauneuf pere dudit sr Guigon de Chateauneuf ecuyer…sieur Guigon de Chateauneuf pere dudit sr Guigon oncle [et] Anne [not in the Latin] Assamens sa femme [et] Guilhaume de Chateauneuf pere dudit Guigon neveu”, witnessed by “Beraudo de Castronovo, Paleton eius filio…[265].  Remize lists the possessions retained by each party under this division, including in the case of Guigues the nephew Allenc, ¼ Châteauneuf at the castle of Randon, and Tine[266].  “Eu Guigo de Chastelnou fils saienreires de Mosegnor en G[uillem] de Chastenou” swore homage to the bishop of Mende by charter dated 25 Aug 1268[267].  Guigues’s absence from the 13 Aug 1278 charter of his son Guillaume suggests that he was deceased at the time.  m POITEVINE de Valdun, daughter of --- (-after 1300).  A “Mémoire servant à établir la filiation des anciens et illustres seigneurs de Châteauneuf” records that, by charter dated 13 Aug 1278, “Maragde, Pétronille [Peytavine] et Marquise de Châteauneuf, ladite Maragde mère de Guy de Châteauneuf chevalier, ladite Pétronille sa femme, et ladite Marquise sa fille” confirmed the sale of “l’affar de la Panouse” made by “Guillaume de Châteauneuf fils de Pétronille et frère de Marquise” to Chaise-Dieu[268].  Her family origin is confirmed by a note dated 1300 which records a dispute between Guillaume de Châteauneuf seigneur de St-Remèze…tant en son nom que de dame Peytavine sa mère” and “Guillaume de Valdun seigneur de Valdun…frère de ladite Peytavine[269].  The codicil of Guillelmus de Castro Novo miles dominus castrorum Tine, Sancti Remigii et Bidauis”, dated 29 Dec 1320, recalled a donation made to Nonenque by “domina Peytavina mater mea[270]Europäische Stammtafeln names her “Peytavine de Valdun (dame de Saint-Remize et de Bidon) 1278”[271]: it is a reasonable assumption that Guigues’s wife brought these territories to the family as they are not listed among those retained by her husband under the 3 Apr 1255 division cited above.  Guigues & his wife had three children: 

i)          MARQUISE de Châteauneuf (-after 13 Aug 1278).  A “Mémoire servant à établir la filiation des anciens et illustres seigneurs de Châteauneuf” records that, by charter dated 13 Aug 1278, “Maragde, Pétronille [Peytavine] et Marquise de Châteauneuf, ladite Maragde mère de Guy de Châteauneuf chevalier, ladite Pétronille sa femme, et ladite Marquise sa fille” confirmed the sale of “l’affar de la Panouse” made by “Guillaume de Châteauneuf fils de Pétronille et frère de Marquise” to Chaise-Dieu[272].  Marquise’s confirmation suggests that she was older than her brother, who may still have been a minor at the time. 

ii)         GUILLAUME de Châteauneuf ([1257/58]-[29 Dec 1320/2 Dec 1322], bur Mende Franciscans)His birth date is estimated for consistency with the suggested chronology of other members of his immediate family.  Seigneur de Tine, de Saint-Remize et de Bidon.  A “Mémoire servant à établir la filiation des anciens et illustres seigneurs de Châteauneuf” records that, by charter dated 13 Aug 1278, “Maragde, Pétronille [Peytavine] et Marquise de Châteauneuf, ladite Maragde mère de Guy de Châteauneuf chevalier, ladite Pétronille sa femme, et ladite Marquise sa fille” confirmed the sale of “l’affar de la Panouse” made by “Guillaume de Châteauneuf fils de Pétronille et frère de Marquise” to Chaise-Dieu[273].  Marquise’s confirmation suggests that she was older than her brother, who may still have been a minor at the time. 

-        see below

iii)        GUIAS (-after 1320).  The testament of Guillelmus de Castro Novo miles dominus castrorum Tine, Sancti Remigii et Bidonis”, dated 13 Oct 1320, bequeathed property to “…sa fille Hélianos religieuse à Nonenque, à sa sœur Guias…associée à Hélianos dans le legs[274].   

2.         AUZILENS (-after 1255).  Remize records her parentage, suggesting that she was “probablement religieuse à Mercoire”, recording in a later passage a document dated 1255 in which Guy de Joyeuse” promised to procure the consent of “domina Auzliens sorore sua et…Gugone de Castronovo” relating to a sale to the chapter of Mende[275]

3.         GUIGUES de Châteauneuf (-after 3 Apr 1255)O. Garini et Guigo Mesquini eius filius, Guigo de Castronovo, Garinus de Apcherio et dominus A. de Peira” swore homage to Etienne Bishop of Mende by charter dated 1224[276].  “Guigonem de Castronovo baronem” sued “Astorgiam de Petra baronem super medietate castri de Sanglagier, del Chier et castri de Marchastel et de Chaidasaygues”, about those castles, in the court of the bishop of Mende in 1224[277].  An undated charter, dated to [1224/47], records that dominus G[uigo] de Castronovo” was forced to restore plunder from the lands of the bishopric of Mende[278].  A charter dated 6 Jul 1247 records a dispute between dominum Guigonem de Castronovo militem et Guigonem nepotem suum” and the commander of Jalès relating to pasture “de Mercoyra et…censum…de Pelosa” [Mercoire and Pelouse][279].  A charter dated 1247 records an agreement between dominus Guigo de Castro Novo miles filius quondam Guigonis de Castro Novo” and “Guigo de Castro Novo nepos eiusdem” dividing the territories previously held by “quondam dicti domini Guigonis de Castro Novo patris dicti domini Guigonis avunculi, vel domine Assumens uxoris eiusdem, vel Guillelmi de Castro Novo patris quondam dicti Guigonis nepotis[280]Seigneur de Joyeuse: a charter dated late-Jun 1253 records Guy du Tournel” named as arbitrator in a dispute between “Guy de Châteauneuf seigneur de Joyeuse” and “le neveu de celui-ci Guonnet” concerning “des droits paternels d’autre Guy de Châteauneuf, père et aïeul des parties[281]By charter dated 3 Apr 1255 “sr Guigon de Chateauneuf ecuyer fils jadis de…Guigon de Chateauneuf” and “Guigon de Chateauneuf son neveu majeur de 25 ans” agreed the division of their properties in the baronnie de Randonnat, recording the properties previously held by “sr Gugon de Chateauneuf pere dudit sr Guigon de Chateauneuf ecuyer…sieur Guigon de Chateauneuf pere dudit sr Guigon oncle [et] Anne [not in the Latin] Assamens sa femme [et] Guilhaume de Chateauneuf pere dudit Guigon neveu[282].  Remize lists the possessions retained by each party under this division[283]An undated charter, dated to [1247/73], records that dominus G[uigo] de Castronovo” was forced by the bishop of Mende to repair damage caused by his predations “in Gabalitano…apud Castrum novum[284].  Undated documents, dated to [1247/73], record a dispute between B. Cabrerii” and “G. de Castronovo” regarding land bought by the former from “domino G. de Castronovo, domino Javiose[285]m RANDONNE, daughter of ---.  Undated documents, dated to [1247/73], record that [Randone] domina uxor quondam G. de Castronovo”, after her husband died, obtained restitution of land “in mandamento Castrinovi” from Bernard Chabrier[286].  Undated documents, dated to [1247/73], record that servientes Garini de Apcherio” captured an ally of “filium B. Cabrerii”, “domina Randona [ms : Ramunda], domina Javiose” claimed the right to judge them as the events took place on her land[287]Europäische Stammtafeln names her “Randonne d’Anduze Dame de Joyeuse 1256/79, T v Bernard sn de Portes etc u Vierne du Luc”[288].  If that is correct, she was Randonne [Vierne?] d’Anduze.  Caumartin and Père Anselme both name her “Vierne” (no sources cited) and her husband “Randon de Châteauneuf, son of Guy de Châteauneuf & his wife Assumens ---”[289].  Considering that the masculine name “Randon” may have originated as a nickname as suggested above, the same could have applied to the feminine equivalent “Randonne”.  If that is correct, maybe her baptismal name was Vierne (no primary source has been found which confirms this name).  Guigues & his wife had [one child]:

GUILLAUME de Châteauneuf, son of GUIGUES de Châteauneuf & his wife Poitevine ([1257/58]-[29 Dec 1320/2 Dec 1322], bur Mende Franciscans).  His birth date is estimated from his declaration in his 30 Nov 1283 charter quoted below, and is consistent with the suggested chronology of other members of his immediate family.  He did not declare himself under age in the 16 Dec 1283 charter.  A “Mémoire servant à établir la filiation des anciens et illustres seigneurs de Châteauneuf” records that, by charter dated 13 Aug 1278, “Maragde, Pétronille [Peytavine] et Marquise de Châteauneuf, ladite Maragde mère de Guy de Châteauneuf chevalier, ladite Pétronille sa femme, et ladite Marquise sa fille” confirmed the sale of “l’affar de la Panouse” made by “Guillaume de Châteauneuf fils de Pétronille et frère de Marquise” to Chaise-Dieu[292].  Marquise’s confirmation suggests that she was older than her brother, who may still have been a minor at the time.  Seigneur de Tine, de Saint-Remize et de Bidon.  “Guillelmus de Castronovo domicellus” sold “censualia…de Moillet” [Moulhet] to the clergy of Mende, with the cosnet of “dominorum Guillelmi de Randone archidiaconi Mimatensis…”, by charter dated 20 Feb 1281 (O.S.?)[293].  “Nobilis vir Guillelmus de Castro Novo dominus de Tina, asserens se majorem XXV annorum” swore homage to the bishop of Mende for all his listed territories by charter dated 30 Nov 1283, witnessed by “domino Guillelmo de Randone archidiacono…[294].  “Guillelmo de Castronovo domino de Tina” pledged property to the bishop of Mende for a loan by charter dated 16 Dec 1283[295].  A charter dated Sep 1291 records a dispute between “Randonem de Tornello canonicum Mimatensem” and “Guillelmum de Castronovo domicellum” concerning “mansi Planti[296].  “G[uillemus] de Castronovo dominus de Tina” swore allegiance to the bishop of Mende for “partem meam de Castronovo…quartam” and fiefs “in dyocesi Mimatensi…” by charter dated 16 Apr 1292, witnessed by “…Bt. de Castronovo…”, repeated by charter dated 8 Jul 1298[297].  The “Mémoire” noted above records an arbitral sentence dated 1301 between the prior of la Panouse and “Guillaume de Châteauneuf fils de Guigon” and a charter dated 30 Apr 1307 which records the settlement of a related dispute[298].  Charters dated: “le premier de l’an” 1309 list the territories held by Guillaume de Châteauneuf” from the bishop of Mende; “le second de l’an” 1268 by “Guigo de Châteauneuf”; “le troisième de l’an” 1292 by “Guigo de Châteauneuf” [error for Guillaume?]; “le quatrième de l’an” 1283 by “Guillaume de Châteauneuf”; and “le cinquième et dernier de l’an” 1298 by “Guillaume de Châteauneuf[299]Dominus G[uillelmus] de Castronovo” protested against le Paréage de 1307” by charter dated 30 May 1308[300]The testament of Guillelmus de Castro Novo miles dominus castrorum Tine, Sancti Remigii et Bidonis”, dated 13 Oct 1320, appointed “Guigonem et Lambertum filios meos” as his heirs, substituting “Guiot, puis Géraud, fils…l’aîné des enfants mâles de ses sœurs Maragde, Marquèze et Vierne”, and bequeathed property to “son fils Guérin chevalier de St-Jean de Jérusalem, à ses filles Tiburge et Dragonnette religieuses à Bonlieu, Marquèze non mariée, Maragde femme de Géraud de Boycières, à ses fils Heracle et Marquez religieux de St-Chaffre, à ses autres fils Géraud et Guiot, à sa fille Hélianos religieuse à Nonenque, à sa sœur Guias…associée à Hélianos dans le legs[301].  The codicil of Guillelmus de Castro Novo miles dominus castrorum Tine, Sancti Remigii et Bidauis”, dated 29 Dec 1320, chose burial “fratribus Minoribus conventus Mimatensis”, recalled a donation made to Nonenque by “domina Peytavina mater mea”, and bequeathed property to “…Guidoni Berardi, de Castronovo…[302].  He is named as deceased in his sons’ homage dated 2 Dec 1322, quoted below. 

m ([1290?]) MARAGDE [de Châteauneuf], daughter of LAMBERT [de Châteauneuf] & his wife --- Adémar de Monteil (-before 1330).  The 15 Sep 1212 document quoted below under her son Lambert suggests that she was heiress of part of Randon (presumably through her father), which she transmitted to her son.  The testament of “Maragde de Châteauneuf”, dated 9 Aug 1309, named “son fils, Lambert de Châteauneuf…” as her universal heir, made bequests to “son fils frère François, à ses filles religieuses de Nonenque, de Bonlieu, de Bouchet (Bosqueto), à son fils Guy, à sa fille Maragde…pas encore mariée, à son fils Garin, à d’autres fils et filles”, and named “Géraud Adhémar son oncle, Guy de Châteauneuf son frère prieur de Ste-Enimie et le gardien des Mineurs de Largentière” as executors[303]She is named in the 1330 charter of her daughter Maragde cited below.  Europäische Stammtafeln names her “Maragde de Châteauneuf (-en-Vivarais) test. 9 Aug 1309, Schwester v Guy de Ch Prior zu Sainte-Enimie, Nichte v Géraud Adhémar de Monteil, T v Lambert u Maragde Adhémar de Monteil”[304]Her supposed father Lambert has not otherwise been identified in the Châteauneuf family.  The testament of "Geraldus Ademarii dominus Montilii" [Girard Adémar [III] de Monteil, see the document PROVENCE-VALENTINOIS, DIOIS], dated 11 Apr 1262, bequeathed property to "filie mee Mar…Lamberto marito suo…"[305], but no other document has been found which identifies her husband more precisely.  The date of her marriage is suggested by the marriage date of her older daughter Maragde. 

Guillaume & his wife had fourteen children: 

1.         LAMBERT de Châteauneuf (-[1337/1343]).  The testament of “Maragde de Châteauneuf”, dated 9 Aug 1309, named “son fils, Lambert de Châteauneuf…” as her universal heir[306].  This document suggests that Lambert was his parents’ oldest son, his brother Guigues taking precedence in later documents presumably because of his ecclesiastical positions.  Co-Seigneur de Randon [inherited from his maternal grandfather and sold soon afterwards as no other document has been found which names Lambert as such?]: a declaration dated 15 Sep 1313 was made by “Guill. Morres civis Mimatensis” relating to his property holding “mansi de Colonia”, in the presence of “nobilis viri Lamberti de Castronovo domini pro parte castri de Randone, in manso…de Pongiis[307], linked to documents dated 1254 under which “Guigo de Castronovi filius condam domini Guillelmi de Castronovo” sold “mansi de Colonia” to “Guigoni Morres[308]The testament of Guillelmus de Castro Novo miles dominus castrorum Tine, Sancti Remigii et Bidonis”, dated 1320, appointed “Guigonem et Lambertum filios meos” as his heirs[309].  Co-Seigneur d’Allenc et de Saint-Remize.  A charter dated 2 Dec 1322 records “Guy et Lambert de Châteauneuf” swearing homage to the bishop of Mende for the territories of “pater ipsorum defunctus”, confirmed 8 Apr 1322 (O.S.) specifying “le quart de Châteauneuf et le dénombrement d’Allenc[310].  A charter dated 1329 records an agreement between the bishop of Mende and “Lamberto de Castronovo domino Tine domicello” concerning “duos mansos…Arifatis et…Malena” [Arifates and Malène], previously held by “dominus Guillelmus de Castronovo bone memorie genitor eiusdem Lamberti” under a charter dated 1297[311].  Lambert was named in the 1330 charter of his sister Maragde, cited below.  The testament of Lambert is dated 12 May 1335, only two fragments surviving, one of which names his wife as noted below[312].  Lambert bought “le mas de la Chazotte...dans la paroisse de Saint-Denis” from “Guillaume et Jean de Randon père et fils seigneurs de Randon” in 1337[313]He presumably died before the 1343 homage of his son Guillaume, cited below.  m GUYONNE de Peyre, daughter of ASTORG de Peyre & his wife --- (-after 17 Mar [1358]).  The testament of Lambert is dated 12 May 1335, only two fragments surviving one of which relates to bequests to “Guyonne de Peyre femme de Lambert” which name “son beau-père Astorg de Peyre” and “Guy de Châteauneuf préchantre de Viviers...Guyonne leur mère” as guardian of his children[314]A charter dated 1353 granted “la tutelle des enfants de Guillaume de Châteauneuf à leur grand’mère Guyonne de Peyre[315].  By letters dated 28 May 1354, “Guérin de Châteauneuf commandeur de Jalès” appointed a proxy to renounce his guardianship of the two children of Guillaume de Châteauneuf, in favour of “Guigona de Petra domina sancti Remigii aviaque dictorum liberorum[316]Domina Guigona de Petra domina sancti Remigii arque Tine...tutrix...Garineti de Castronovo filii...domini Guillelmi de Castronovo militis filii sui condam” declared her inability to make payments to “dominum Guilabertum...dominum de Cenareto” by way of dowry for “Guigona eius uxore, sororeque dicti...Guillelmi”, by charter dated 17 Mar 1357 (O.S.?)[317]Lambert & his wife had five children:

i)          GUERIN de Châteauneuf (-after 1362).  Isabella de Orlhaco uxor...Guillelmi de Castro Novo domini Sancti Remigii condam” granted property to “Garino filio meo unico…licet sit impuber” by charter dated 1348[322].  Seigneur de Saint-Remize.  Europäische Stammtafeln records the dates “1349/62”[323]

Guigues Meschin & his wife had three children: 

1.         RANDON de Châteauneuf ([1195/1205?]-after 20 Mar 1271).  His parentage is confirmed by the 1243 report cited below.  Seigneur de Châteauneuf et de Randon.  A charter dated 1326, in a claim by Guillaume de Châteauneuf précepteur de Jalès” against “Guillaume de Randon”, records the confirmation made in 1218 by “Randonem de Castro Novo filium G. lo Meschi” and by “predecessores suos et specialiter per Guilhermum de Randonum avum suum[395].  The date 1218 seems early considering that Randon’s father was still alive at that date.  [...Ozil Garini et Guigonis Mesquin et Guillelmi de Castronovo...” witnessed the Jul 1224 charter under which “Raimundus de Andusia” swore homage to Raymond VII Comte de Toulouse[396].  The witness “Guillelmi de Castronovo” has not been identified.  However, as noted above, “Randon” appears initially to have been used as a nickname:  maybe Guillaume was the same person as Randon de Châteauneuf, especially considering that the other two witnesses seem to have been his paternal uncle and his father.]  The inhabitants of “Garda et de Raschassio” complained to “Guigone de Tornello et domino Randone de Castronovo” about levies imposed by undated charter[397]Seigneur d’Altier: Petrus Bartolomei de Guarda” swore allegiance to “Guigone Meschin domino de Alterio” by charter dated 28 Jan 1241 (O.S.), witnessed by “domino Randone...[398].  If the reconstruction shown here is correct, the witness was the Guigues Meschin’s brother.  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc records that “Pons de Polignac...soutint une petite guerre contre les seigneurs de Châteauneuf-Randon et Gui de Meschin seigneur de Tournel, touchant la baronnie de Ceissac” which they claimed as “héritiers de Guillelmette de Polignac leur aïeule”, settled in 1243 by Bernard de Montaigu Bishop of Le Puy[399].  “En Randos de Castelnou filh say en reyre de Guigo Meschi filh de ma dona G. de Saissac say en reire” swore homage to the bishop of Mende by charter dated 1249[400]Gallia Christiana records the appointment 21 May 1250 of Odilon de Mercœur “juvenem” as Bishop of Mende, noting that he claimed “castrum de Capione” from “domino de Tornello”, which was also claimed by “Randonem de Castro-novo” who besieged Mende[401]Père Anselme records that Randon swore homage to the bishop of Uzés for “Montfort, Genouillac, etc” in 1252, and to the prior of Sauve “au nom de ses enfants mineurs pour la terre de Portes en Sevaine” 29 May 1252, founded “les Jacobins de Genouillac” and donated property to “l’abbaye des Chambons” (undated) (no source citations)[402]Guige” (naming his wife “Alaisette”) sold “sa part de seigneurie sur une portion du mandement de Villefort” to “Randon de Châteauneuf” by charter dated 1260[403].  “Dominus Rando de Castronovo et dominus Bertrandus Beraudi, Vilata et Petrus Falco, domini...de Pratellis...” agreed harvest rights at Pradelles, confirmed by “Guillelmus de Randone et Bernardus de Anduzia fratres filii dicti nobilis...renunciantes omni beneficio minoris etatis”, by charter dated 30 Jun 1269[404]By charter dated 9 Aug 1269, “Guigon Meschin sieur du Tournel et en partie de Montfort et messire Randon de Chateauneuf sieur de Luc et aussi en partie de Montfort et messire Regordane seigneur en partie du chateau de Naves de Malbos” granted rights to “Pierre de Baume, Bertrand Nadal, Jean de Fabaselles…hommes du mandement du chateau de Malbos[405].  Randon de Châteauneuf chevalier baron du Gévaudan” was witness no. 47 at an enquiry at Mende 20 Mar 1270 (O.S.?), giving evidence about “la guerre qu’il eut à soutenir contre Eracle de Montlaur et de l’intervention du Roi et de l’évêque à ce propos[406].  Remize attributes the dates “1238-1275” to him (no sources cited)[407]m MARQUISE d’Anduze Dame de Portes, de Luc et de Pradelles, daughter of BERNARD d’Anduze co-Seigneur d’Alès & his wife Vierne --- ([1200/10?]-).  Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage (no source citations)[408].  Her family origin is confirmed by her husband being named dominus Randonus et dominus Bertrandus de Andusia, sororius” (Remize does not date this extract or provide more context)[409]Randon & his wife had two children:

a)         GUILLAUME de Châteauneuf ([1230/35?]-1305)Père Anselme records his parentage (no source citations)[410]Dominus Rando de Castronovo et dominus Bertrandus Beraudi, Vilata et Petrus Falco, domini...de Pratellis...” agreed harvest rights at Pradelles, confirmed by “Guillelmus de Randone et Bernardus de Anduzia fratres filii dicti nobilis...renunciantes omni beneficio minoris etatis”, by charter dated 30 Jun 1269[411]Seigneur de Châteauneuf et de Randon.  A charter dated Sep 1291 records a dispute between “Randonem de Tornello canonicum Mimatensem” and “Guillelmum de Castronovo domicellum” concerning “mansi Planti[412]Guillelmus de Randone dominus de Luci pro nobis et pro...” subscribed the alliance of Philippe IV King of France against Pope Boniface VIII by charter dated 1303[413].  The testament of “Guilhaume de Randon seigneur de Luc” is dated 1305 (no relevant details)[414]m firstly (after 24 Sep 1252) VALPURGE de Rodez, daughter of HUGUES [IV] Comte de Rodez {Aveyron] and his wife Isabelle de Roquefeuil, Vicomtesse de Creissels {Aveyron} (after 1233-1303 or after).  The testament of “Isabellis filia quondam nobilis viri domini Raymundi de Rocafolio, uxor nunc domini comitis Ruthenensis” is dated 24 Sep 1252 names “dominæ Dalphinæ matris meæ” and “filiarum mearum et dicti domini comitis…Valborgis, Helis, Alcaietæ et Dalphinetæ…filius meus et heres Aenricus”, and requested burial at Nonenque[415]Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage (no source citations)[416]The testament of “Valbourgeoise de Randon dame de Luc femme de...Guilhaume de Randon seigneur de Luc”, dated 1303, named “sondict mary” as her heir, substituting “Guilhaume son nepveu fils de Marquèse sa filhe vicontesse de Polignac[417]m secondly ERMENGARDE d’Uzés, daughter of BERMOND [III] Vicomte d’Uzés & his second wife Ermengarde --- (-after 1308).  Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage (no source citations)[418].  Guillaume & his first wife had two children: 

i)          MARQUISE de Châteauneuf ([1260?]-1334 or after)Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage (no source citations)[419]Dame de Châteauneuf et de Randon (part).  Dame du Luc, de Portes et de Montelus.  Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage (no source citations)[420].  A charter dated 1277 records the marriage between Marquèse de Randon” and “Armand viconte de Polignac”, with “le chasteau de Cusse en Auvergne” as her dowry[421]Père Anselme records that was she granted guardianship of her children in 1291, despite opposition from “Béraud seigneur de Mercœur et Ponce de Polignac doyen de Brioude”, and that she confirmed 17 Jan 1311 the sale of property “au château de Genouillac” made with her consent 9 Jan 1311 by “Guillaume de Randon chevalier seigneur du Luc et de Portes, majeur de 20 ans” (no source citations)[422].  The testament of Marquèse de Randon vicontesse de Polignac dame de Luc”, dated 1334, named “Guilhaume de Randon son fils” as her universal heir and bequeathed property to “Armand viconte de Polignac son fils[423]Père Anselme says that she died the same year[424]m (1277) as his second wife, ARMAND [VI] Vicomte de Polignac, son of ARMAND [V] Vicomte de Polignac & his wife Beatrix de Mercœur ([1259]-29 Apr 1289). 

ii)         RANDON de Châteauneuf (-before 1305).  Père Anselme records his parentage “mort jeune avant 1305” (no source citations)[425].  The reference to his dying young “avant 1305” is surprising considering the likely birth date of his sister, unless he died many years before 1205 or he was his father’s son by his second wife. 

b)         BERNARD de Châteauneuf “d’Anduze” (-after 9 Aug 1269).  “Dominus Rando de Castronovo et dominus Bertrandus Beraudi, Vilata et Petrus Falco, domini...de Pratellis...” agreed harvest rights at Pradelles, confirmed by “Guillelmus de Randone et Bernardus de Anduzia fratres filii dicti nobilis...renunciantes omni beneficio minoris etatis”, by charter dated 30 Jun 1269[426]Père Anselme records his presence when his father granted exemptions to the inhabitants of Montfort 9 Aug 1269 (no source citation)[427]

2.         GUILLAUME de Randon (-[1286]).  Remize records his parentage (no sources cited), noting that he was archdeacon of Mende, died  vers 1286” when he was replaced by “l’abbé Pons nommé par le P. Ernèze, de l’Ordre de Cluny, prieur de St-Pierre-de-Ruoms[428]

3.         GUIGUES Meschin .  “Guigo Meschinus filius quondam Guigonis Meschini [footnote (2) “La bulle porte : S. Guigonis filii quondam O. Guarani“ (?)]” donated property to Franquevaux, with “Rando filius prescripti domini Guigonis domini de Alterio” confirming these donations made by “domino patre meo et domina Valborges matre mea”, by charter dated 22 Feb 1238 (O.S.) “apud castrum de Alterio infra aulam domini Guigonis[429].  “Petrus Bartolomei de Guarda” swore allegiance to “Guigone Meschin domino de Alterio” by charter dated 28 Jan 1241 (O.S.), witnessed by “domino Randone, domino Austorgio de Petra...[430]

 

 

The relationship between the following person and the Randon family shown above has not been ascertained.  Maybe he was descended from a younger son of Guigues Meschin and his wife Valborge. 

 

1.         GUILLAUME de Châteauneuf-Randon (-after 14 Sep 1332).  Albert Bishop of Mende confirmed “Odilo Guarini miles dominus de Turnello” in his fiefs by charter dated 14 Sep 1332, witnessed by “Guillermo de Randone, Marquesio de Canilhaco, Astorgio de Monteferrando militibus...[431]

 

 

 

SEIGNEURS du TOURNEL

 

 

Costecalde provides details on the territorial extent of the baronnie du Tournel[432].  As noted below, Remize notes a document summarising a supposed partition of Tournel territories between the two brothers Odilon Guérin [II] and Guiges Meschin (see below) which specifies that the former received “tout ce qui est au couchant de la Croix de Bourbon…les châteaux de Montialoux, Montmirat, Chapieu, du Tournel, Rocheval…et la Loubière et Montorsier” and the latter “le château d’Oltet, dans lequel est Bellecoste et Prévenchères…”, leaving “à partager le château de Montfort” (no source citation)[433]Philippe details the origins, brief histories, and extent of the castles of Chapieu[434], Montialoux[435], Montmirat[436], and Le Tournel[437]

 

 

1.         GAUCELIN du Tournel (-after 1156).  “Guillelmus de Randono et uxor mea Maria” donated “mansum de Grosso-Fago” to “[la] commanderie des Templiers dans la paroisse de Saint-Martin d’Ardèche, nommée tantôt Trignan, tantôt Artignan”, for the soul of “fratris mei Garini”, by charter dated 1156, witnessed by “Petrus Arnaldi et Bertrandus de Castronovo....Jaucellinus de Tornello...[438].  It is not known whether Gaucelin was related to the family shown below, was their predecessor (maybe Odilon Guérin [I] married his daughter and heiress), or was simply a knight at Le Tournel castle who used the castle’s name. 

 

 

The primary source which confirms the parentage of Odilon Guérin [I] has not been identified.  Père Anselme names “Guillaume de Chateauneuf”, son of Guillaume [II] de Châteauneuf Seigneur de Randon (see above), as husband of Guillaumette de Saissac (no source citations)[439], ignoring Odilon Guérin [I].  Europäische Stammtafeln names him “Odilon Guérin I sn de Villefort 1152/66”[440].  Remize records that “Brunel...identifie cet Odilon Guérin avec le Guérin de l’inféodation de Randon (1126)[441].  A simpler solution would be that Odilon Guérin [I] was the same person as Odilon de Châteauneuf co-Seigneur de Randon, brother of Guérin, also named in the 1126 charter: this suggestion is consistent with the estimated birth date of Odilon Guérin [I] shown below.  Remize suggests that “Odilon...doit se rattacher...aux Tournel[442]

 

1.         ODILON GUERIN [I] de Châteauneuf ([1095/1100?]-[15 Aug 1166/1173]).  His birth date is estimated from the likely birth date of his son Audebert.  Seigneur du Tournel: “Odilo Guarini...baronis domini de Tornello” swore homage to “domine Assalit magister sancte domus hospitalis Sancti Johannis Jherosolimitani” for land “de Puteo de las Olmeadas usque in Boibo, veluti flumen Olti...” and donated property (listing the territories in the baronnie du Tournel) by charter dated 15 Aug 1166[443].  The extent of this donation suggests that it may have been by way of testament at the end of Odilon Guérin’s life.  Costecalde records this charter as the confirmation of the foundation of the Commanderie du Gap-Français[444].  Odilon Guérin died before 1173, the date his supposed son Bishop Audebert’s complaint about his brother (see below), and certainly before 1175, the date of his son’s charter cited below.  m ---.  The primary source which confirms the name of Odilon Guérin’s wife has not been identified.  [The following document identifies the mother of Audebert Bishop of Mende is “Ausilenz”: “En, P. de Senarelz filh de Ricardz, et eu Gisbert de Senaret, et [eu] Guilhen, filii de Maria” swore homage to “Aldebert evesque filh de Ausilenz” for “lo chastel de Senaretz” by undated charter[445].  However, as discussed below, there is some doubt whether Odilon Guérin [I] was the bishop’s father or brother.]  Odilon Guérin [I] & his wife had [two] children: 

a)         GUIGUES Meschin [I] de Châteauneuf ([1125/30?]-after 1200).  Remize names “Guy Meschin (1175-1200)” as son of Odilon Guérin [I] who married firstly “Guillaumette de Saissac”, grandparents of Guigues Meschin below[446].  The primary source which confirms this affliation has not been identified, although the naming pattern of his descendants suggests that it is probably correct.  Seigneur du Tournel.  “Guigues de Châteauneuf” sold “les terres de Malmontet, Malmont et Méjanes” to “l’abbé Bernard” by charter dated 1175[447].  “Guigo Meschinus et...Odil Garinus eius filius” donated pasture “in Berchadura et in Cumba plana et in Trabuco” to Franquevaux “de Puteo de las Olmeadas usque in Boibo, veluti flumen Olti...” by charter dated 22 Mar 1198 (O.S.), witnessed by “G. de Castronovo lo cumtor...[448]m firstly GUILLAUMETTE de Ceissac Dame de Ceissac [Saissac] en Velay, daughter of ---.  She is named as the deceased mother of Guigues Meschin in the 18 Jul 1219 charter quoted below.  Remize records that “Guy Meschin (1175-1200)”, son of Odilon Guérin [I], married firstly “Guillaumette de Saissac”[449].  Brunel names Guigues Meschin [I] Seigneur du Tournel, son of Odilon Guérin [I] Seigneur du Tournel (died [15 Aug 1166/1175]), as Guillaumette’s husband[450].  Her marriage is confirmed by the Histoire Générale de Languedoc recording that “Pons de Polignac...soutint une petite guerre contre [her grandsons] les seigneurs de Châteauneuf-Randon et Gui de Meschin seigneur de Tournel, touchant la baronnie de Ceissac” which they claimed as “héritiers de Guillelmette de Polignac leur aïeule”, the dispute settled in 1243 by Bernard de Montaigu Bishop of Le Puy[451].  This reference suggests that Guillaumette was co-heiress of Saissac with the wife of Pons Vicomte de Polignac (see the document AUVERGNE): maybe they were sisters.  m secondly as her first husband, --- de Rodez, daughter of [HUGUES [II] Comte de Rodez & his wife Agnes ---].  Her family origin and two marriages are confirmed by the following document: a 20 Mar 1270 deposition of “Guy de Tournel, 49e témoin de l’évêque” declared that “dominus Aldebertus Garini, nepos comitis Ruthenensis et filius domini Gui. Mesquini, avi ipsius testis, ex secunda conjuge sorore comitis Ruthenensis, que habet alium virum viventem”, after the death of “ipso avo ipsius t[estis]”, requested “Frayrescam in bonis dicti domini. Gui. Mesquini” from “domino O[dilone] Ga[rini] patre ipsius testis et domino Gui. Mesquini patre domini Randonis, fratribus, filiis dicti domini Gui. Mesquini, avi ipsius testis, ex prima conjuge legitima”, and that he requested “Frayrescam…coram dicto domino G. de Petra episcopo” who compelled “dictos fratres” to litigate in his court[452]The chronology of the Rodez family suggests that she was the daughter of Hugues [II].  She married secondly ---.  The name of her second husband is not known.  Guigues Meschin [I] & his first wife had two children: 

i)          ODILON GUERIN [II] de Châteauneuf ([1155/65?]-after 11 Aug 1229, maybe after 7 Oct 1229).  “Guigo Meschinus et...Odil Garinus eius filius” donated pasture “in Berchadura et in Cumba plana et in Trabuco” to Franquevaux “de Puteo de las Olmeadas usque in Boibo, veluti flumen Olti...” by charter dated 22 Mar 1198 (O.S.)[453]Seigneur du TournelRemize says that the “inventaire-sommaire des Archives de la Lozère” records “un acte de partage de la baronnie de Tournel sous la date de 1218” but that “le document indiqué ne se trouve pas dans sa liasse”, however noting a short summary in “l’Inventaire pour la généalogie de la famille de Tournel, aux archives de Mlle de Châteauneuf de Randon, au Puy” which records the division 26 Apr 1218 between “Odile Guérin et Guillaume (lisez Guy) Meschin son frère”, the former receiving “tout ce qui est au couchant de la Croix de Bourbon…les châteaux de Montjaloux, Montmirat, Chapieu, du Tournel, Rocheval…et la Loubière et Montorsier” and the latter “le château d’Oltet, dans lequel est Bellecoste et Prévenchères…” and leaving “à partager le château de Montfort[454]Ozils Garis” swore homage for “lo chastel del Tornel...” to the bishop of Mende, “eu Armans de Peyra p[re]bos et eu Guilh[em] de Peyra archidiaques de Memde” confirming the acceptance of the chapter, by charter dated 5 Jul 1219, witnessed by “...G.

A charter dated 1229, recording an agreement between Benedict Commander of Le Gap-Français and Hugues Moussatier prior of Saint-Julien, was sealed by “Odilonis Guarini, Guidonis Meschini[460].  The 7 Oct 1229 charter cited below which names his two sons does not say whether their father was living or deceased at the time.  m ---.  The name of Odilon Guérin’s wife is not known.  Burdin says that Odilon Guérin married “Marguerite du Tournel, héritière de la baronnie de ce nom (contrat de mariage du 20 oct. 1210[461], which must be incorrect as Odilon Guérin’s father and grandfather already held the baronnie du Tournel as noted above.  Remize notes that, according to Porée, “Odilon Guérin fils de Guy Meschin et seigneur du Tournel” married “une sœur de Guérin d’Apcher”, by whom he had “Guy Meschin (1237-1278)” (no primary source cited)[462].  Odilon Guérin [II] & his wife had three children:

(3)       GUY de Tournel (-after 20 Mar [1270/71]).  A 20 Mar 1270 (O.S.?) deposition of “Guy de Tournel, 49e témoin de l’évêque” declared that “dominus Aldebertus Garini, nepos comitis Ruthenensis et filius domini Gui. Mesquini, avi ipsius testis, ex secunda conjuge sorore comitis Ruthenensis, que habet alium virum viventem”, after the death of “ipso avo ipsius t[estis]”, requested “Frayrescam in bonis dicti domini.

Mesquini, avi ipsius testis, ex prima conjuge legitima”, and that he requested “Frayrescam…coram dicto domino G. de Petra episcopo” who compelled “dictos fratres” to litigate in his court[466]

ii)         GUIGUES Meschin de Châteauneuf ([1155/65?]-after 18 Jul 1219, maybe after 1226).  His parentage is confirmed by the 1243 report cited above under his paternal grandmother, and by the 20 Mar 1270 deposition quoted below.  Co-Seigneur de Randon, presumably de iure uxoris.  “G[uigo] Meschi fils que fuy de na Guillelma de Saysac” swore homage to “li gleisa de Memde…l’evesque W” for his properties by charter dated 18 Jul 1219[467]

Guigues Meschin [I] & his second wife had one child:

iii)        AUDEBERT Guérin de Châteauneuf (-after Apr 1237).  Seigneur de Valcaylès (fief of the Rodez family): Aldebertus Garini et Marcha uxor ipsius, filia quondam B. de Benevent” swore homage to “Hugone…comité Ruthenensi, filio quondam domini Henrici” for “castrum de Valcastles” [Valcaylès] by charter dated Apr 1237[468].  His parentage is confirmed by the following document: a 20 Mar 1270 deposition of “Guy de Tournel, 49e témoin de l’évêque” declared that “dominus Aldebertus Garini, nepos comitis Ruthenensis et filius domini Gui. Mesquini, avi ipsius testis, ex secunda conjuge sorore comitis Ruthenensis, que habet alium virum viventem”, after the death of “ipso avo ipsius t[estis]”, requested “Frayrescam in bonis dicti domini.

Mesquini, avi ipsius testis, ex prima conjuge legitima”, and that he requested “Frayrescam…coram dicto domino G. de Petra episcopo” who compelled “dictos fratres” to litigate in his court[469]m MARTHE [de Bénavent], daughter of --- (-after Apr 1237).  “Aldebertus Garini et Marcha uxor ipsius, filia quondam B. de Benevent” swore homage to “Hugone…comité Ruthenensi, filio quondam domini Henrici” for “castrum de Valcastles” [Valcaylès] by charter dated Apr 1237[470]Remize says that this refers to “Aldebert Guérin (du Tournel) et…sa femme Marthe de Bénavent[471]

b)         [AUDEBERT du Tournel ([1125/30?]-after 28 Jan 1187).  The bishop’s mother is identified by the following document: “En, P. de Senarelz filh de Ricardz, et eu Gisbert de Senaret, et [eu] Guilhen, filii de Maria” swore homage to “Aldebert evesque filh de Ausilenz” for “lo chastel de Senaretz” by undated charter[472].  However, there is some doubt about his father.  Odilon Guérin [I] is apparently confirmed as the bishop’s father by an 18th century inventory of the priory of Sainte-Enimie which records a letter of Pope Alexander III confirming the sale of “[le] terroir de La Fage” made by “Aldebert évesque de Mende et messire Guigon du Tournel son frère[473].  Brunel, while suggesting that the archivist could have added information which was not included in the original letter, highlights that the text is confirmed by Bishop Audebert donating “Malmontet” to Franquevaux “dans les mêmes termes que Guigue Meschin” by charter dated 1175[474].  On the other hand, Remize says that in 1166 (when Odilon Guérin [I] swore allegiance, see above) Audebert’s father must already have been deceased as the bishop was already in 1163 “en possesion de l’héritage paternel” when “en allant au concile de Tours, il voit en songe, à Issoire, sa tour de Montjaloux (turris paterna) fendue de part en part” and on his return journey found “proprium nostrum castrum pillé et incendié[475]Remize concludes that Audebert was the son of Odilon “de l’inféodation de 1126”, and that Odilon Guérin [I] was his brother[476]The bishop’s family connection with the seigneurs du Tournel is indicated by his own mention of “ses châteaux paternels de Montialoux et de Villefort”, which were held by the baronnie du Tournel[477].  The chronology of the bishop’s life is consistent with his being the brother of Guigues Meschin [I].  His birth date is estimated from the date of his episcopal appointment, bearing in mind his date of death.  Bishop of Mende 1151.  Bishop Audebert wrote to Louis VII King of France, dated 1173, complaining that “frater meus” had invaded “terram meam, immo vestram, fraudulenter...”, noting that they had then settled their dispute, but that “fratrem meum” had afterwards “in fraude...duo ex castris meis fraudulenter occupavit, et adhuc tenet[478].  “A[ldebertus] tercius Mimatensis ecclesie episcopus” donated “ecclesiam S. Privati de Frotgeiras” to Gap Français by charter dated 28 Jan 1187[479].]

Guigues Meschin & his wife had one child:

ODILON GUERIN [IV] de Châteauneuf, son of ODILON GUERIN [III] de Châteauneuf Seigneur du Tournel & his wife Miracle de Montlaur ([1245/55?]-before 9 Aug 1322)Seigneur du TournelA charter dated 15 Jul 1278 settled a dispute between “Randonum de Tornello canonicum Aniciensem et Heracleum eius fratrem monachum” and “Ozil Garini dominum de Tornello predictorum R. et Heraclei fratrem” concerning their paternal inheritance[529]Père Anselme records that Odilon Guérin and his brothers Randon and Héracle swore homage 11 Feb 1278 (O.S.?) to the bishop of Uzès for Montfort (no source cited)[530].  This document suggests that all three had reached the age of majority.  Raybaud (early 18th century) recorded that in Sep 1277 “Odilon Guérin seigneur du Tournel en Gevaudan, fils d’Odilon et de Miracle” donated listed territories in the dioceses of Uzès and Mende to Saint-Gilles (no citation reference)[531]Odilon Guérin sold “le mas du Falisson, dans la paroisse de St-Bauzile” to Etienne Bishop of Mende, with the approval of “[sa mère] Miracle, sa femme Raymbaude, sa sœur Maragde et ses frères Randon et Eracle”, by charter dated 30 Nov 1283[532].  “Odilo Garini domicellus dominus Turnelli filius...domini Odilonis Garini militis jam deffuncti” swore allegiance to the bishop of Mende for his fiefs by charter dated 25 Feb 1291 (O.S.)[533].  He presumably died before 9 Aug 1322, when two of his sons are named as shown below.  Philippe, ignoring that this document names Pons” as brother of Odilon Guérin [V], assumes that the 9 Aug 1322 charter and all later documents, up to and including the 23 Apr 1352 testament quoted below, refer to Odilon Guérin [IV][534], a result which is chronology infeasible assuming that his birth is correctly estimated above.  As a result, Philippe’s reconstruction of the following two generations of the Châteauneuf-Tournel family is confused.  The inconsistencies have been copied into Europäische Stammtafeln[535].  Hopefully, the problems have been resolved in the following reconstruction which more closely reflects the primary source material.  

m (before 30 Nov 1283) RAIMBAUDE d’Anduze, daughter of --- (-after 17 Oct 1307).  Odilon Guérin sold “le mas du Falisson, dans la paroisse de St-Bauzile” to Etienne Bishop of Mende, with the approval of “[sa mère] Miracle, sa femme Raymbaude, sa sœur Maragde et ses frères Randon et Eracle”, by charter dated 30 Nov 1283[536].  The marriage contract between “Odilonem de Tornello filium...Odilonis Guarini domini de Tornello” and “Elionors filiam...Marquesii domini de Canilhaco” is dated 19 Jul 1305, with the consent of “Randonis de Tornello propositi Aniciensis fratris sui, et filiorum suorum...Randonis et Poncii...domina Raimbauda uxor sua...[537].  A charter dated 17 Oct 1307, which records an agreement between Odilon Guérin and “Guigue de Villaret seigneur de Serviès”, names “Rimbaudam de Anduso sominam de Tornello eius nobilis [Odiilonis Garini] uxorem” as absent[538]

SEIGNEURS d’APCHIER

 

 

The branch of the seigneurs d’Apchier was studied in the early 20th century by Remize[654].  This work has not yet been consulted. 

 

 

GUERIN [I] de Châteauneuf, son of --- (-after 4 Mar 1180)Père Anselme names Guérin as son of Guillaume [II] co-Seigneur de Randon (see above), noting that he granted his lands to his oldest son by charter dated 4 Mar 1180[655]Remize suggests that Guérin/Garin (named in the 1126 grant of Randon, see above) was ancestor of “la branche d’Apcher et probablement d’autres[656]Seigneur de Châteauneuf

m ALIX d’Apchier Dame d’Apchier, de Saint-Auban, de Saint-Chély, de Vazeilles et de Montaleyrac, daughter of ---.  Père Anselme records her marriage and lists her territories, without citing the corresponding primary source[657]

Guérin [I] & his wife had three children: 

1.         GUERIN [II] de Châteauneuf (-after 2 Oct 1214).  Père Anselme records that Guérin [I] granted his lands to his oldest son by charter dated 4 Mar 1180, and that Guérin [II] sold the pasturage “du bois de Mercoire” to the “précepteur de Jalets”, with the consent of his brother Guigues, by charter dated 2 Oct 1214[658]: Garinus Apcherius” confirmed a donation to the Templars at Jalès by charter dated 2 Oct 1214[659]Seigneur d’Apchierm ---.  The name of Guérin’s wife is not known.  Guérin & his wife had children:

The following reconstruction is based mainly on the tables in Europäische Stammtafel[670], as well as Père Anselme’s work[671], supplmented by family testaments as shown below. 

 

GUERIN [IV] de Châteauneuf, son of GUERIN [III] de Châteauneuf Seigneur d’Apchier & his wife Béatrix de Châteauneuf (-after [16 Nov?] 1301, bur cemetery of Franciscans of Saint-Chely)Seigneur d’Apchier.  The testament of “Garinus de Castro novo miles dominus Apcherii”, dated “au château de Sainct Alban le jeudy apres la fete de St. Martin 1301”, chose burial “dans le cimetière des frères mineurs de Saint Chely (sancti Yleri)”, bequeathed property to “Guerin son fils clerc (clerico)…Guerine (Garine) sa fille femme du fils de noble homme Astorg de Peyre damoiseau (filii nobilis viri Astorgii de Petra domicelli)…Bernard son fils clerc (clerico)…Astorquet (Astorqueto) son fils…frere Pons son fils”, acknowledged having received “en dot de dame Maralde (domina Maralda) sa femme…” which he left to her for her life “tant qu’elle demeureroit en viduité”, and appointed “son heritier universel Guerin son fils layc marié (Garinam laycum uxoratum)”, substituting successively “en cas de deces sans enfans, Bernard…Astorguet aussi son fils”, in the presence of “Noble homme le seigneur (nobili viro domino) Marquesio Seigneur de Caniliaco, le seigneur Pons de Monterodato, le seigneur Etienne Argerii, le Seigneur Robert de Fara, chevaliers (militibus)…[672]

[Europäische Stammtafeln records a second marriage with Marquèse de Brossadol, widow of Bernard Jurquet Seigneur d’Oradur, daughter of Guy de Brossadol & his wife ---[674].  The primary source on which this suggestion is based has not been found, but it is proved incorrect by the testaments of Guérin [IV] and his son Guérin [V] which indicate that Maralde de Canilhac survived her husband by several years.] 

Guérin [IV] & his wife had six children (the order of their births is uncertain): 

1.         GUERIN [V] d’Apchier (-[end-May 1312/1317], bur Saint-Chely)The 1301 testament of his father, cited above, appointed “son heritier universel Guerin son fils lays marié (Garinam laycum

“Galceranda de Narbonne” ceded “la vicomté de Castelnou” to “[le] vicomte de Narbonne Aymeric V” [presumably her brother Aimery [VI] Vicomte de Narbonne][682].  The following document shows that subsequently Castelnau was transferred to Gausserande’s son by her first marriage (see below), who sold it to the king of Mallorca: “Jacobus…rex Majoricarum” instructed “procuratoribus nostris in

D.      SEIGNEURS, BARONS, VICOMTES, DUCS de JOYEUSE

 

 

Joyeuse is located about 10 kilometres north of Bernas-et-Casteljau in the south-east of the present-day French département of Ardèche, arrondissement Largentière.  In medieval times, it lay within the Vivarais, presumably on the boundary between the county of Gévaudan and the territories of the bishop of Viviers.  The reconstruction of the Joyeuse family depends largely on Caumartin’s April 1669 Géneálogie de la Maison de Joyeuse, copied and expanded by Père Anselme (presumably based, from the nature of his additions, on primary source material to which he had access)[761].  As will be seen below, few primary sources have been identified to corroborate the statements of either author especially for the earlier generations.  The following reconstruction should therefore be used with some caution.  Brunel, in justifying the parentage of Dragonnet (see below), notes that he relied on “la généalogie de la maison de Joyeuse, qui est assez exacte par ailleurs[762].  That genealogy has not been consulted during the preparation of the present part. 

 

 

The following is a hypothetical reconstruction which suggests the earlier holders of Joyeuse before it passed to Dragonet who is shown in the section after.  

 

1.         BERTRAND de Châteauneuf de Joyeuse (-after 1162).  “Guilhermus de Randone” donated “mansum...Grossum Villatum et illud de Grossofavo” to Jalès, for the soul of “fratris mei Garini Bruni”, by charter dated 1162, witnessed by “...Bertrandus de Castronovo de Javiosa, Falco de Castronovo, Bertrandus de Castronovo milites...[763].  m ---.  The name of Bertrand’s wife is not known.  Bertrand & his wife had [one child]: 

a)         [GUERIN de Randon (-after 1207).  “…Guarino de Randon…” witnessed the charter dated Jul 1198 which records the settlement of a dispute between Raymond VI Comte de Toulouse and the bishop of Viviers[764]Stroński suggests that Guérin was the son of Guillaume [II] (see above)[765]. The connection between his supposed daughter and Joyeuse suggests that Guérin may have been the son of Bertrand de Châteauneuf de Joyeuse who was named in 1162 (see above).  A charter dated 1207 records property which “Guigo de Castro Novo...Garinus de Castro Novo” had “in castro de Randone[766]m ---.  The name of Guérin’s wife is not known.  Guérin & his wife had [one child]: 

i)          [VIERNE de Randon .  Roche records her parentage and marriage[767].  The primary source which confirms this information has not been identified.  Dame de Luc, de Pradelle, de Joyeuse et de Genolhac (part).  m ([1195]) BERNARD d’Anduze Seigneur de Portes et de Largentière (part), son of BERNARD [V] Seigneur d'Anduze & his wife Marquise --- ([1170/75?]-before 13 Sep 1223).]  Bernard & his wife had children:

(2)       [RANDONNE [Vierne?] d’Anduze ([1200?]-after [1247/73])Dame de Joyeuse.  Undated documents, dated to [1247/73], record that [Randone] domina uxor quondam G. de Castronovo”, after her husband died, obtained restitution of land “in mandamento Castrinovi” from Bernard Chabrier[768].  Undated documents, also dated to [1247/73], record that servientes Garini de Apcherio” captured an ally of “filium B. Cabrerii”, and that “domina Randona [ms : Ramunda], domina Javiose” claimed the right to judge them as the events took place on her land[769]Europäische Stammtafeln names her “Randonne d’Anduze Dame de Joyeuse 1256/79, T v Bernard sn de Portes etc u Vierne du Luc”[770].  Caumartin and Père Anselme both name her “Vierne” (no sources cited) and her husband “Randon de Châteauneuf, son of Guy de Châteauneuf & his wife Assumens ---”[771].  Considering that the masculine name “Randon” may have originated as a nickname as suggested above, the same could have applied to the feminine equivalent “Randonne”.  If that is correct, maybe her baptismal name was Vierne (no primary source has been found which confirms this name).  m GUIGUES de Châteauneuf, son of GUIGUES de Châteauneuf & his wife Almodis --- (-after 3 Apr 1255).] 

 

 

Brunel records Dragonnet as son of Guigues de Châteauneuf (see above), noting that he did not find la preuve de sa filiation dans les documents que nous pu consulter” but relied on “la généalogie de la maison de Joyeuse, qui est assez exacte par ailleurs” [this genealogy has not been identified][772].  He does not name Dragonnet’s mother. 

 

DRAGONNET de Châteauneuf, son of [GUIGUES de Châteauneuf & his wife Randonne [Vierne?] [d’Anduze]] (-after [1308])Seigneur de Joyeuse: Caumartin and Père Anselme note that Dragonnet swore homage for Joyeuse to “Randon seigneur de Châteauneuf” in 1268 (no citation references)[773]Dragonnet swore allegiance to the bishop of Mende for territories allocated to his supposed father Guigues under the 3 Apr 1255 charter, by charter dated 1270 (no citation reference)[774]“...Nobilis vir Draconetus dominus de Jaujosa...” witnessed the 26 Mar 1289 codicil of the testament of Armand [VI] Vicomte de Polignac[775].  “Guillelmus de Randone dominus de Luci pro nobis et pro domino Draconeto domino Gaudiose...” subscribed the alliance of Philippe IV King of France against Pope Boniface VIII by charter dated 1303[776]Europäische Stammtafeln shows the dates “1270/1308” for Dragonnet[777].  The sources to which these dates correspond have not been identified. 

m BEATRIX de Roquefeuil, daughter of RAYMOND [III] Seigneur de Roquefeuil & his wife Alasie [Azalasié] --- (-after 9 Nov [1283]).  The testament of “Raymond de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant et seigneur d’Algue”, dated 17 Mar 1281, bequeathed property to “Béatrix sa fille femme de Dragonet de Castelnau...Elisabeth son autre fille...Miracles son autre fille...Marquèze, Yrdoine et Guize ses autres filles...Raymond son fils[778].  Her testament was dated 9 Nov 1283[779].  Jourda de Vaux (dating the testament to 9 Nov 1287) records that she bequeathed property to her brother Armand[780]

Chapter 2.    COMTES de NÎMES

 

 

A.      COMTES de NÎMES

 

 

Comte de Nîmes are referred to in primary sources from the 9th century, although in all cases it is probable that the individuals concerned were also comtes de Toulouse.  "Ragambaldo seu Fulcoaldo comite" are named as royal missi in "pago Rutenico seu Nemausense" (Rouergue and Nîmes) in a charter of Aniane dated 21 Oct 837[903].  "Fulcoaldo comite" can be identified as the first known ancestor of the family of the comtes de Toulouse (see the document TOULOUSE KINGS, DUKES; COUNTS).  A comte Raymond is recorded at Nîmes in the late 9th century, as shown by a bull of Pope John VIII dated 18 Aug 878, relating to papal authority over the monastery of Saint-Gilles, which is subscribed by "Raimundus comes, Berengarius vicecomes…Emenus vicecomes, Oddo vicecomes, Ugo comes"[904], and a charter dated Apr 890 which records a judgment in the court of "Raimundus…comes ipsius pagi…Allidulfo suo viciscomiti" relating to a claim by "Bligardis…in comitatu Nemausensi"[905].  He appears to have been the same person as Raymond Comte d’Albi who, as discussed further in TOULOUSE KINGS, DUKES, COUNTS, is likely to have been the future Raymond II Comte de Toulouse.  In later documentation, Albi and Nîmes are recorded under the same vicomtes, and it is also therefore possible that they were linked under the same count in the late 9th century.  The process by which Raymond may have inherited or been appointed to Nîmes has not yet been ascertained.  The fact that no further record is found relating to Raymond in Nîmes after 915 could be explained by his succession in Toulouse, after which Nîmes would have ceased to be one of his main centres of activity.  No other Comte Raymond has so far been identified who could be this comte de Nîmes.  It is not known whether Nîmes continued to be held by the comtes de Toulouse after this date.  A charter dated 2 Jul 972 records a hearing at Nîmes by "Raymondus comes et marchio" relating to "ecclesiam Sancti Martini…in comitatu Agatense"[906].  However, this document could refer either to Raymond [II] Comte de Rouergue or to Raymond III Comte de Toulouse.  If the former is correct, Nîmes would have reverted to Guillaume IV Comte de Toulouse after the death in [1063/64] of Berthe, daughter of Hugues Comte de Rouergue, along with the counties of Agde/Béziers, Narbonne, Rouergue, and Uzès.  The future Raymond IV Comte de Toulouse is referred to as comte de Nîmes during the early part of his career, as shown by the charter dated 15 Dec 1066 under which "Raimundus comes Rutenensis et Nemosensis, Narbonensiumque filius meus" joined "Almodis comitissa" in a transaction with Cluny for the soul of "Poncii comitis"[907].  "Raymundus Ruthenensis, Gabalitanus, Ucetiensis, Nemausensis, Agathensis, Biterrensis necnon Narbonensis comes" (also referring to Comte Raymond IV) confirmed the foundation of the abbey of Saint-Pons de Thomières by "proavo…meo Pontio Aquitanorum magno duce vel principe" by charter dated 1085[908].  After that date, the county of Nîmes appears to have firmly established in the hands of the successive comtes de Toulouse. 

 

 

 

B.      VICOMTES de NÎMES

 

 

Vicomtes de Nîmes are referred to in documentation at the end of the 9th century.  No further reference to the vicomté de Nîmes has been found until a charter dated 9 Jun 956 which records an exchange of property at Nîmes and payment "ad vicecomite Bernardo et ad vicecomitissa Gauza et ad Bernardum cuius erat feuz"[909].  "Vicecomite Bernardo" is identified as the same person as Bernard [II] Vicomte d’Albi.  The reference in the document to his wife suggests that she may have been heiress to the vicomté de Nîmes and that her husband held the title in her name.  If that is correct, her descent from the earlier vicomtes de Nîmes who are named below has not been ascertained.  After that date, the vicomtés of Albi and Nîmes were held by the same family, which is set out in Chapter 2.B of the present document. 

 

 

1.         BERTRAND (-after 22 Apr 876).  Vicomte de Nîmes.  A charter dated 22 Apr 876 records "Bertranno vicis-comite" in "Nemause civitate" and "Eralii vicis-comite"[910].  "Eralii viciscomite" has not been identified positively, but his name suggests a connection with the future vicomtes de Polignac. 

 

2.         BERENGARVicomte de [Nîmes].  A bull of Pope John VIII dated 18 Aug 878, relating to papal authority over the monastery of Saint-Gilles, is subscribed by "Raimundus comes, Berengarius vicecomes…Emenus vicecomes, Oddo vicecomes, Ugo comes"[911]A charter dated 23 May 898 records a donation to Nîmes Notre-Dame in the presence of "Bernardo vices-comite…Regemundo comite…Berengario comite"[912]

 

3.         ALIDULF (-after Apr 892).  Vicomte de [Nîmes].  "Bligardis femina" donated property "in comitatu Nemausense…villam Bizagum" by charter dated Apr 892 which names "Raimundus…comes ipsius pagi…Allidulfo suo vicis-comiti"[913].  The name Alidulf is found in the family of the vicomtes de Lodève in the mid-10th century. 

 

4.         BERNARD (-after 23 May 898).  Vicomte de [Nîmes].  A charter dated 23 May 898 records a donation to Nîmes Notre-Dame in the presence of "Bernardo vices-comite…Regemundo comite…Berengario comite"[914]

 

 

 

 

Chapter 3.    COMTES de ROUERGUE, COMTES de RODEZ

 

 

The county of Rouergue lay to the east of the county of Quercy and west of the county of Gévaudan, centred on the town of Rodez.  It lay north of the vicomté de Millau and south of the vicomtés of Carlat and Murat in the southern part of the county of Auvergne.  It covered an area approximately equivalent to that of the present-day French département of Aveyron.  Comtes de Rouergue are named from the 840s.  "Ragambaldo seu Fulcoaldo comite" are named as royal missi in "pago Rutenico seu Nemausense" (Rouergue and Nîmes) in 837[915].  "Fulcoaldo comite" can be identified as the first known ancestor of the family of the comtes de Toulouse (see the document TOULOUSE KINGS, DUKES; COUNTS).  His son Raymond was appointed Comte de Rouergue et Comte de Quercy in 849 by Charles “le Chauve” King of France, in recognition for his help in fighting Pippin II King of Italy, before becoming Comte de Toulouse in 855.  The county of Rouergue was inherited by Ermengaud, presumed grandson of Comte Raymond, and was ruled by his descendants separately from the county of Toulouse until the mid-11th century.  On the death in [1063/64] of Berthe, daughter of Hugues Comte de Rouergue, the counties of Agde/Béziers, Narbonne, Rouergue, and Uzès reverted to Guillaume IV Comte de Toulouse. 

 

Richard Vicomte de Millau obtained part of the county of Rouergue as a security from Raimond [IV] "de Saint-Gilles" Comte de Toulouse et de Rouergue.  After this, most historians favour the name “Rodez” for the new entity, and “Rouergue” for the former. The Latin name is Ruthena/Ruthenensis in both cases, but in Occitan they are distinct: “Rodès” vs “Roargue”.  The county of Rodez was inherited by the Comtes d’Armagnac after the death in 1304 of Henri [II] Comte de Rodez.  After the death in 1497, without direct heirs, of Charles Comte d’Armagnac, the inheritance was disputed.  The rivalry was settled by François I King of France who in 1514 ceded all rights to the Armagnac inheritance to his sister Marguerite, at that time wife of Charles [IV] Duc d’Alençon and later wife of Enrique II King of Navarre.  Marguerite’s only daughter, by her second husband, married Antoine de Bourbon Duc de Vendôme whose son succeeded as Henri IV King of France in 1589, at which time the Armagnac inheritance, including Rodez/Rouergue, was united under the French crown. 

 

 

 

A.      COMTES de ROUERGUE

 

 

ERMENGAUD, son of [EUDES Comte de Toulouse & his wife Gersende d'Albi] (-after Jul 935).  There is no primary source which directly proves that Ermengaud was the son of Odon Comte de Toulouse.  However, two documents suggest that this affiliation is probably correct.  Firstly, Catel records a donation by "Deda religieuse" "tant pour elle que pour le comte Ermengaud et Adelays sa femme et ses enfants, que pour le comte Pons", by charter dated to [930][916].  Secondly, Flodoard records that "Ragemundus et Ermingaudus, principes Gothiæ" swore allegiance to Raoul King of France in 932[917]Comte de Rouergue 906.  Agio Archbishop of Narbonne wrote to "Agamberto necnon et Elefonso episcopus" by undated charter which names "comites nostros Ermingaudum et Raimundum"[918].  This charter is dated to 922 in the third edition of the Histoire Générale de Languedoc.  However, the fact that Ermengaud is given precedence over Raymond in the document suggests that the latter must have been Raymond Pons Comte de Toulouse, nephew of the former, rather than his older brother Comte Raymond II.  If that is correct, the document would be dateable to after [924].  Archbishop Agio died in [926/27][919], which if correct would be place the document in [924/27].  "Ermengaudus comes et filius suus Regimundus et Rainus vicecomes et vicarius" donated property "in pago Ruthenico in ministerio Curiense in villa…Seviniaco" to Vabres by charter dated Jan [934], subscribed by "…Ugone filio Ermengaudo, Bernardo vicecomite, Ildoino, Adalone"[920]"Ermengaudus comes et uxor mea Adalais comitissa" donated property "in pago Ruthenico" to Vabres by charter dated Jul 935, subscribed by "Adalone, Elduino, Genesio, Ugone filio Adalone, Ermengaudo fratre suo, Bernardo vicecomite"[921]

m ADELAIS, daughter of --- (-after Jul 935).  "Ermengaudus comes et uxor mea Adalais comitissa" donated property "in pago Ruthenico" to Vabres by charter dated Jul 935, subscribed by "Adalone, Elduino, Genesio, Ugone filio Adalone, Ermengaudo fratre suo, Bernardo vicecomite"[922]

Comte Ermengaud & his wife had four children:

-        COMTES de QUERCY

3.         son(s) .  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, states that the testator made donations for the souls of "…fratres meos"[925].  It is not known how many brothers he may have had, but presumably they were all deceased at that date as none is named as a beneficiary. 

4.         --- .  m ---.  Two children: 

a)         HUGUES (-after 961).  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "alode de Circiolis" to "Ugoni nepote meo" and after his death half to "Arnaldo et filio suo Siguino"; "alode de Malopertuso…" to "Ugoni nepoti meo" and after his death to "Raymundo fratre suo"[926]

b)         RAYMOND (-after 961).  "Raymundus comes" names "…Ugoni nepoti meo…Raymundo fratre suo…" in his 961 testament[927]

5.         [RICHILDE de Rouergue (-after 954).  Szabolcs de Vajay suggests[928] that the second wife of Sunyer [I] Conde de Barcelona was the daughter of Ermengaud de Toulouse Comte de Rouergue & his wife Adelais ---, to explain the transmission of the name Armengol [Ermengaud] into the Barcelona family.  m ([920/25]) as his second wife, SUNYER I Conde de Barcelona, son of GUIFRE I "el Velloso/el Pilós/the Hairy" Conde de Barcelona & Guinidilda --- (-950).] 

 

 

The precise relationship between the following small family sub-groups (all named in the 961 testament of Raymond [I] Comte de Rouergue) and the family of the comtes de Rouergue has not yet been established. 

1.         ADELO (-after Jul 936).  "Ermengaudus comes et filius suus Regimundus et Rainus vicecomes et vicarius" donated property "in pago Ruthenico in ministerio Curiense in villa…Seviniaco" to Vabres by charter dated Jan [934], subscribed by "…Ugone filio Ermengaudo, Bernardo vicecomite, Ildoino, Adalone"[929]"Ermengaudus comes et uxor mea Adalais comitissa" donated property "in pago Ruthenico" to Vabres by charter dated Jul 935, subscribed by "Adalone, Elduino, Genesio, Ugone filio Adalone, Ermengaudo fratre suo, Bernardo vicecomite"[930]m ---.  The name of Adelo's wife is not known.  Adelo & his wife had two children (their names suggest a close family relationship with the comtes de Rouergue): 

a)         HUGUES (-after 961).  "Ermengaudus comes et uxor mea Adalais comitissa" donated property "in pago Ruthenico" to Vabres by charter dated Jul 935, subscribed by "Adalone, Elduino, Genesio, Ugone filio Adalone, Ermengaudo fratre suo, Bernardo vicecomite"[931].  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "castello de Caganione…castello de Parisio" to "Hugoni et Ermengaudo fratre suo"[932]

b)         ERMENGAUD (-after 961).  "Ermengaudus comes et uxor mea Adalais comitissa" donated property "in pago Ruthenico" to Vabres by charter dated Jul 935, subscribed by "Adalone, Elduino, Genesio, Ugone filio Adalone, Ermengaudo fratre suo, Bernardo vicecomite"[933].  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "castello de Caganione…castello de Parisio" to "Hugoni et Ermengaudo fratre suo"[934]

2.         HUMBERTm ---.  The name of Humbert's wife is not known.  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "alode de Livrone" to "Raymundo filio Umberto", "alode de Gignalio" to "Bernardo filio Umberto…mater illorum"[935].  The mention of the mother of the two brothers suggests that she may have been a blood relation of the testator.  Humbert & his wife had two children: 

a)         RAYMOND (-after 961).  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "alode de Livrone" to "Raymundo filio Umberto", "alode de Gignalio" to "Bernardo filio Umberto…mater illorum"[936]

b)         BERNARD (-after 961).  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "alode de Livrone" to "Raymundo filio Umberto", "alode de Gignalio" to "Bernardo filio Umberto…mater illorum"[937]

3.         BERNARD (-after 961).  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "alode de Vertucio" to "Bernardo et uxoris suæ Adelaus"[938]m ADELAIS, daughter of ---.  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "alode de Vertucio" to "Bernardo et uxoris suæ Adelaus"[939].  The same document provides that "castello…Casso" would revert to "Bernardo et uxori suæ Adelais" if the testator’s son Raymond died without issue.  This suggests a close relationship between the parties, probably through Adelais which would explain why she is named in the document with her husband

4.         AIMERY (-after 961).  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "alode de Bellopogio" to "Aymericus"; "parte…in castello de Gordone et…alode de Godronense" to "Aymerico…et Geraldo filio suo et ad filios Geraldo"; "alode de Lobegiaco" to "Genesio", "Rocha inter Aymerico et Genesio" and if Genesius died childless to "Geraldo fratre suo"[940].  m ---.  The name of Aimery’s wife is not known.  Aimery & his wife had [two] children:

m (945[948]) as her second husband, BERTA d'Arles, widow of BOSON Comte in Upper Burgundy, daughter of BOSO Comte d'Arles, later Marchese of Tuscany, & his wife Willa of Upper Burgundy (-after 18 Aug 965).  "Bertam, Willam, Richildam et Gislam" are named (in order) as the four daughters of Boso and Willa by Liutprand[949], who in a later passage names Berta as "Bosonis Arelatensis comitis viduæ" and mentions her marriage soon after the death of her first husband to Raymond, by virtue of which she was deemed guilty of incest[950]"Bertha comitissa" donated property inherited from "avunculi mei Ubonis, regis in regno Gociæ in comitatu Sustantionensi…villam…Candianicus…" to Montmajour by charter dated 26 Feb 960, signed by "…Emens vicecomes…"[951].  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "alodes…in Nemosense…castello…Casso" to "Bertanæ" and after her death to "Raymundo filio suo" and if he died without heirs to "Bernardo et uxori suæ Adelais", and in case of their death without heirs to "Hugo"[952]"Berta…comitissa et filius meus Raimundus…comes" donated property "in comitatu Nemausense" to Nîmes Notre-Dame by charter dated 7 Sep 961[953].  "Berta…comitissa" donated property "in comitatu Nemausense" to Nîmes Notre-Dame by charter dated 18 Aug 965, subscribed by "Raimundus filius meus"[954].  She is cited at the time of a synod held after 1004 (maybe [1012])[955]

Mistress (1):  ---, daughter of EUDOIN & his wife ---.  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "castello de Albinio" to "filios meos quos…habeo de filia Odoino"; "manso de Carausiaco" to "filia mea quam habeo ab ipsa filia Odoini"[956]The absence of a reference in the text to "filia Odoino" being Raymond's former wife suggests that these children were illegitimate.  This interpretation is also supported by the succession of Raymond's son Raymond to his father's county, presumably indicating that he was the oldest son.  As the testament shows that Raymond junior was the son of Raymond senior's wife Berta, it is unlikely that his half-brothers by "filia Odoino" would have been older than him. 

Comte Raymond I & his wife had five children:

1.         RAYMOND [II] (-[1008])"Bertha comitissa" donated property inherited from "avunculi mei Ubonis, regis in regno Gociæ in comitatu Sustantionensi…villam…Candianicus…" to Montmajour by charter dated 26 Feb 960, signed by "…Emens vicecomes…"[957].  The testament of "Raymundus comes", dated 961, bequeathed property for life "alodes…in Nemosense…castello…Casso" to "Bertanæ" and after her death to "Raymundo filio suo" and if he died without heirs to "Bernardo et uxori suæ Adelais", and in case of their death without heirs to "Hugo"; "alode de Losolario" to "Hugo filius noster"; "alode de Braciaco…castello…Vuandalors" to "Raymundo filio meo et Hugoni filio meo"; "castello de Cerveria…de Sancto Laurentio…de Petrilense…de Granolheto…de Mala-Morte…de Dargon…de Ventagione…de Monasterio" to "Raymundo filio meo"[958]He succeeded his father in [961] as Comte de Rouergue.  "Berta…comitissa et filius meus Raimundus…comes" donated property "in comitatu Nemausense" to Nîmes Notre-Dame by charter dated 7 Sep 961[959].  "Berta…comitissa" donated property "in comitatu Nemausense" to Nîmes Notre-Dame by charter dated 18 Aug 965, subscribed by "Raimundus filius meus"[960].  [A charter dated 2 Jul 972 records a hearing at Nîmes by "Raymondus comes et marchio" relating to "ecclesiam Sancti Martini…in comitatu Agatense" in the presence of "…Siguinus vicecomes et Bernardus frater eius…"[961].  It is not known with certainty whether this document refers to Raymond [II] Comte de Rouergue or to Raymond III Comte de Toulouse, although the former appears more likely.]  "Raimundus comes filius Berteldis" donated the church of Palatio (“alode meo de Palaiz” bordering “terra Bernardo filio Almerado”) to the abbey of Conques by charter dated Feb [998/1010][962].  "Petrus…Bermudi filius" recalled "Raimundi Ruthenensium comiti et Biterrensium vice comitisse Hermengardi" in a charter dated 27 Jun 1078 relating to the donation of the church of Palatio to the abbey of Conques[963].  The treatise of Bernard scholasticus of the church of Angers records that "urbis Ruthenicæ comes Ragemundus, filius…Ragemundi" died on pilgrimage to Jerusalem[964]m RICHARDE, daughter of --- (-after 1062).  "Ugo…comes" donated property to the abbey of Narbonne Saint-Paul by charter dated 23 Mar 1032, subscribed by "…Ricardis suæ matris, Fides"[965]The treatise of Bernard scholasticus of the church of Angers names "Ricarda comitissa…Raymundi viri sui vidua" when recording her good works[966]"Hugo Ruthenensium comes et mater mea Ricardis comitissa" donated property to Conques, for the soul of "Raymundi comitis", by charter dated 23 Jan 1051, signed by "Ricardis commitissæ…Rodberti comitis, Fidei comitissæ, Bertæ comitissæ, Berengarii vicecomitis, Bernardi archidiaconi et fratrum eius"[967]Comte Raymond [II] & his wife had two children:

HUGUES [II] de Rodez, son of HUGUES [I] Comte de Rodez & his wife Ermengarde [de Creissels] (-[1208], bur Bonneval {Le Cairol, Aveyron}).  "Ugo Rutenensium comes et...Ermengardis uxor eius" donated property "in ecclesia Sancti Saturnini de castro Creisel...", with the consent of "filii nostri Ugonis", by charter dated 1154[1009]Comte de Rodez.  "Richardus et Hugo comes Ruthenensis" recorded an agreement with the bishop of Lodève relating to "Salam Episcopi" by charter dated 1162[1010].  In 1164, he and his brother Comte Hugues, the Abbots and the Seigneurs instituted a "Comun de Paix", approved in 1170 by Pope Alexander IIII, in the form of a tax aimed at enforcing law and order in his comté.  He founded the abbey of Bonnecombe {Comps-la-Grandville, Aveyron} in 1167.  He recovered Carlat in 1167 under the treaty of Arles with Alfonso II King of Aragon: "Ildefonsus…rex Aragonensis, comes Barchinonensis, duc Provinciæ" granted "vicecomitatu de Carlades", held by "avus patris mei Guilbertus…comes", to "Hugonem comitem Rutenensem" by charter dated 1167[1011].  "Hugo Ruthenarum comes" borrowed money from the bishop of Lodève by charter dated 14 Mar 1174, which names "Guillelmum de Lunatio" as guarantor[1012]"Hugo comes Rutenensis" granted rights of pasturage on all his lands to Notre-Dame de Dalon by charter dated 1174[1013].  The testament of Ugo comes Ruthenensis”, dated 8 Oct 1176 (witnessed by “...mater mea et uxor mea”), chose burial “Bone Valli”, appointed “Ugonem...filium meum primogenitum...comitem” and granted him “omnem terram meam usque ad Tarnum”, bequeathed “Creyssel” to “Girberto...filio alio meo”, offered “tres...alios filios meos” to the religious life “Rainaldum abbacie Loci Dei...Aenricum...Sancte Fidei de Conchis...Guillelmum...qui in albo est avunculus eius prepositus suscipiat”, appointed “Ricardum fratrem meum” as guardian of his children, bequeathed revenue “dotem suam...in castro d’Antraigues” to “uxori...mee[1014].  "Hugo Ruthenarum comes et eius filius" sold feudal rights "in turre de Montebruno…[et] in castro de Elzeria" to the bishop of Lodève by charter dated Mar 1188[1015].  "Hugo comes Ruthenæ, filius Ermengardis et Hugo filius eius et Agnetis comitissæ" donated property to Conques by charter dated 1195[1016]

m AGNES, daughter of --- (-after 1195).  "Hugo comes Ruthenæ, filius Ermengardis et Hugo filius eius et Agnetis comitissæ" donated property to Conques by charter dated 1195[1017].  Secondary sources state that she was Agnes d'Auvergne, daughter of Guillaume [VIII] Comte d'Auvergne & his wife Anne de Nevers.  Baluze traces this hypothesis to a source printed in 1665[1018], indicating that her family origin is suggested by the testament of her son "Willelmus comes Ruthenensis", dated to 1208, who appointed "Guidonem comitem Arverniæ…Willelmum filium suum" as his heir[1019].  However, if this is correct it is unclear why Guillaume Comte de Rodez would have appointed as his heir a maternal relative in preference to a more remote connection through his paternal line.  The testament of Ugo comes Ruthenensis”, dated 8 Oct 1176 (witnessed by “...mater mea et uxor mea”), bequeathed revenue “dotem suam...in castro d’Antraigues” to “uxori...mee[1020]

Mistress (1): BERTRANDE d'Amalon {Saint-Symphorien, Viala-de-Tarn, Aveyron}, daughter of ---.  The 16th century historian Antoine Bonal refers to a charter of Montsalvy under which (he says) “dame Bertrande d’Avalon vefve de Hugues comte de Rodez et mère de Henrry” founded the nunnery “de sainct Project sur la rivière d’Olt” but he neither quotes the document in question nor provides a citation reference[1021].  Barrau states that her name “Amalon” originates “de diverses rentes sises dans la paroisse d’Amalon et de Saint-Symphorien que le comte Hugues acheta pour elle en 1174 d’Arnaud de Levezou avec le château de Trépadou sur les bords du Tarn[1022].  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc suggests that this charter dated 1174 shows that Bertrande was the mistress not wife of Comte Hugues [II], as his wife Agnes was still living at that date[1023].  This could also explain the convoluted route by which Bertrande’s son Henri [I] was appointed count, after the implementation of the testament of Comte Guillaume which did not mention his half-brother.  Presumably it is possible that Henri [I] Comte de Rodez was born illegitimate but legitimated by a subsequent marriage of his parents, maybe celebrated towards the end of his father’s life, but no indication has been found that such a marriage took place. 

Comte Hugues [II] & his first wife had [six] children:

a)         [BERNARD .  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc reports that the four sons of Hugues [III] "Bernard, Jean, Hugues et Richard" are named only in an act dated 19 Jan 1227 "qui est fort sujet à suspicion de fausseté" and dismisses their existence[1029].]

C.      SEIGNEURS d’ARPAJON

 

 

The precise locality of Arpajon, one of the properties granted by Hugues [I] Comte de Rodez to his younger son Bernard, has not been ascertained. The early-May 1297 charter which records the foundation of Arpajon Sainte-Marie describes the location as “juxta seu prope villam Amiliani diœcesis Ruthenensis” [Millau][1104].  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue suggests that it was not Arpajon-sur-Cère (département Cantal)[1105] which, at nearly 100 kilometres north of Millau, does appear too distant from the county of Rouergue/Rodez.  Present-day Arpajon, in the département of Essonne (previously Châtres), was renamed after the Arpajon family.

 

The charter dated Dec 1650, under which Louis XIV King of France established the Marquis de Sévérac as Duc d’Arpajon, states that the title-holder at the time was “issu de père en fils des anciens comtes de Toulouse” and that “la maison de Sévérac...a tiré son origine des rois d’Aragon, comtes de Barcelone, et d’une princesse d’Irlande[1106].  The possibility of descent from the comtes de Toulouse is not far-fetched, although the surviving primary sources are insufficient to establish a continuous line of descent from the vicomtes de Rouergue and hence the comital family of Toulouse.  The connection with the counts of Barcelona is less likely, and the existence of the “princesse d’Irelande” is presumably legendary, although oddly the arms of Arpajon display an Irish harp[1107].  The same document notes the Arpajon family’s succession to the Sévérac properties, confirmed in 1508 by a judgment of the parlement de Paris.  It also adds that the family was united with “la maison d’un amiral de Roussillon” who married “la seule fille naturelle et légitime” of François I King of France.  No other reference has been found to this person, and Gaujal appears correct in suggesting that she was Anne de Bourbon (see the document BOURBON), wife of Jean [II] Baron d’Arpajon, who was the daughter of Louis bâtard de Bourbon Baron de Roussillon (Amiral de France) and his wife Jeanne de Valois Dame de Mirabeau (legitimated daughter of Louis XI King of France)[1108]

 

 

BERNARD de Rodez dit d'Arpajon, son of HUGUES [I] Comte de Rodez & his wife Ermengarde [de Creissels] (before 1154-1230 or after, bur Bonnecombe).  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue states that Bernard confirmed the donation made by his mother Ermengarde when she entered the monastery of Nonenque in 1270[1109].  Bernard's parentage is confirmed by two charters of Bonnecombe.  In the earlier, dated 1194, Bernard “offre pour caution de la sincérité de ses intentions Hugues son frère évêque de Rodez[1110]Seigneur d’Arpajon et de Calmont-de-Plancatge {Espalion, Aveyron}, granted by his father[1111].  His testament, dated 1230, requested burial at Bonnecombe “où l’évêque Hugues, son frère, avait aussi été inhumé[1112].  This statement regarding Bernard’s place of burial identifies Bernard who died in [1230] as the same person, son of Hugues [I] Comte de Rodez, who is named in the other documents cited above.  However, it is unclear whether the statement is quoted from a translation of the testament itself or represents commentary added by the Documens Historiques du Rouergue.  The question is of some importance as the date 1204 for Bernard’s marriage seems late, considering the chronology of the other members of his family, and might otherwise suggest the existence of two persons (presumably father and son) of the same name. 

m ([1204]) RICA de Cabrières, daughter of IMBERT/UMBERT Seigneur de Cabrières & his wife --- (-after 1251).  The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not been identified.  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue dates the marriage to 1204 and notes that her father granted “les seigneuries de Fraxinal et de Canet, le château de Camboulas, les honneurs de Combrouse, le château majeur de Brosse” to Rica, citing an “ancien mémoire manuscrit sur la maison d’Arpajon[1113].  She is named “Richa” in a charter dated 1218 which records as settlement between Bernard d’Arpajon and Amblard abbé de Bonnecombe[1114].  Her testament, dated 27 Oct 1251, bequeathed property “à Durenque, à la Capelle-Farcel, à Peyrebrune et à Camboulas” to her son Bérenger and named “son fils Bernard” as her heir[1115]

Bernard [I] & his wife had two children: 

1.         BERNARD [II] d’Arpajon (-after 27 Oct 1251).  Seigneur d’Arpajon.  The testament of his mother Rica, dated 27 Oct 1251, bequeathed property “à Durenque, à la Capelle-Farcel, à Peyrebrune et à Camboulas” to her son Bérenger and named “son fils Bernard” as her heir[1116]

2.         BERENGER d’Arpajon (-after 27 Oct 1251).  Her testament, dated 27 Oct 1251, bequeathed property “à Durenque, à la Capelle-Farcel, à Peyrebrune et à Camboulas” to her son Bérenger and named “son fils Bernard” as her heir[1117]

 

 

1.         HUGUES [I] d’Arpajon (-after Jul 1298, bur Bonnecombe).  The primary source which confirms the parentage of Hugues has not been identified.  Presumably he could have been the son or grandson of either Bernard [II] or his brother Bérenger.  Seigneur d’Arpajon.  The early-May 1297 charter records the foundation of Arpajon Sainte-Marie “juxta seu prope villam Amiliani diœcesis Ruthenensis” by “dominus Hugo de Arpajone”, in the presence of “domini Berengarii de Arpajone, domini Pilifortis, domini Aldeberti de Petraforti canonicorum Ruthen...[1118].  His testament, dated [after 8 Jul 1298], named “Bernard son fils aîné” as his heir, with “Bérenger d’Arpajon son autre fils” as substitute, bequeathed property to “Aiglène religieuse et Alsacie d’Arpajon ses filles”, and requested burial at Bonnecombe[1119]m MARABILIE de Cénaret, daughter of --- (-after 8 Jul 1298).  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue notes her marriage and family origin, stating that her testament is dated 8 Jul 1298[1120].  Hugues [I] & his wife had four children: 

a)         BERNARD [III] d’Arpajon .  Hugues [I]’s testament, dated [after 8 Jul 1298], named “Bernard son fils aîné” as his heir, with “Bérenger d’Arpajon son autre fils” as substitute[1121].  It is not known whether he predeceased his father or succeeded as Seigneur d’Arpajon for a short time and was succeeded in turn by his brother Bérenger. 

b)         BERENGER [I] d’Arpajon (-after 9 Jun 1345).  Seigneur de [Pillefort], canon at Rodez: the early-May 1297 charter records the foundation of Arpajon Sainte-Marie “juxta seu prope villam Amiliani diœcesis Ruthenensis” by “dominus Hugo de Arpajone”, in the presence of “domini Berengarii de Arpajone, domini Pilifortis, domini Aldeberti de Petraforti canonicorum Ruthen...[1122].  Presumably he resigned his ecclesiastical appointment soon afterwards.  Hugues [I]’s testament, dated [after 8 Jul 1298], named “Bernard son fils aîné” as his heir, with “Bérenger d’Arpajon son autre fils” as substitute[1123]Seigneur d’Arpajon.  As damoiseau seigneur du château de Calmont et de Plantcage” he settled disputes with Rodez Saint-Sernin by charter dated 17 May 1306[1124]Bérenger’s testament was dated 9 Jun 1345[1125]m ---.  The name of Bérenger’s wife is not known.  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue comments that “on [la] croit être sortie de la maison des barons de Caussade, vicomtes de Montclar” without providing the reasoning behind this speculation[1126].  Bérenger [I] & his wife had children: 

i)          HUGUES [II] d’Arpajon (-after 1350).  The primary source which confirms his parentage has not been identified.  Seigneur d’Arpajon

-        see below

c)         ALASIE [Alasazié] d’Arpajon .  Hugues [I]’s testament, dated [after 8 Jul 1298], bequeathed property to “Aiglène religieuse et Alsacie d’Arpajon ses filles[1127]

d)         AIGLENE d’Arpajon .  Hugues [I]’s testament, dated [after 8 Jul 1298], bequeathed property to “Aiglène religieuse et Alsacie d’Arpajon ses filles[1128].

 

 

The parentage of the following person has not been identified.  One possibility is that he was Bérenger [I] Seigneur d’Arpajon who is named above.  Not enough data points are available to test the chronology of this suggestion. 

 

1.         BERENGER d’Arpajon )m ([4 Sep 1307]) RAIMBAUDE de Châteauneuf, daughter of ODILON GUERIN [IV] de Châteauneuf Seigneur du Tournel & his wife Raimbaude d’Anduze.  The Sommaire des mariages et testaments de la maison de Tournel, dated 1639, records the increase in dowry of “Raimbaude Guérine fille d’Odile Guérin” on her marriage with “noble Beringuer d’Arpajon[1129]

 

 

HUGUES [II] d’Arpajon, son of BERENGER Seigneur d’Arpajon & his wife --- (-after 1350).  The primary source which confirms his parentage has not been identified.  Seigneur d’Arpajon.  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue record his name among recipients of “son mandement quand mestier serait” sent by Jean II King of France to his barons[1130]

m firstly HELENE de Lautrec, daughter of [GUILLAUME Vicomte de Lautrec & his wife Alix de Pons] (-before [1341/46]).  The parentage of the wife of Hugues [II] Seigneur d’Arpajon, through whose marriage the right to a share in the vicomté de Lautrec passed to the Arpajon family, is open to some doubt.  Jolibois indicates that the Arpajon claim to the vicomté de Lautrec followed the marriage of Hugues d’Arpajon with Hélène de Lautrec, daughter of Guillaume de Lautrec (son of Frotard, older son of Isarn [III] Vicomte de Lautrec, see above) and his wife Alix de Pons, but he cites no sources on which this information is based[1131].  Père Anselme names “Hélène fille de Guillaume vicomte de Lautrec en partie, seigneur de Montredon, suivant des memoires” as Hugues’s wife, without citing any source on which he bases the information[1132].  The primary source which confirms her name, parentage and marriage has not been identified. 

m secondly ([14 Feb 1342/1346]) as her second husband, CATHERINE de Penne, widow of RATHIER Seigneur de Castelnau de Montratier, daughter of [RAYMOND AMEIL de Penne & his wife ---].  Père Anselme records her family origin and two marriages, noting that she was named “dans un registre criminel du parlement de Paris, commençant en 1346”, which refers to the royal order cited below after her stepson kidnapped her daughter by her first husband[1133].  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue names her father “Raymond Ameil de Penne”, citing only Père Anselme who does not name him in the edition consulted[1134].  The date of her second marriage is estimated from the following document: the testament of “Ratier de Castelnau chevalier seigneur de Castelnau de Lasval fils du noble Baron M Ratier de Castelnau”, dated 14 Feb 1342, names “Ratier de Castelnau son fils” as his heir[1135].  Rathier, son of Catherine de Penne by her first husband, presumably died soon after this testament, in light of the kidnapping by her stepson Jean of her daughter Hélène (see below). 

Hugues [II] & his first wife had children: 

1.         JACQUES d’Arpajon (-after 1355).  Seigneur d’Arpajon.  Vicomte de Lautrec.  Père Anselme records that he was named “dans deux titres de la chambre des comptes de Paris des années 1353 et 1355...communiqué par M. Vyon d’Herouval[1136]

2.         BERENGER [II] d’Arpajon (-after 25 Jun 1370)Seigneur d’Arpajon.  Vicomte de Lautrec: Père Anselme cites an order of Charles V King of France dated 25 Jun 1370 in which he is named as such[1137]m (contract Creyssel 14 Nov 1361) DELPHINE de Roquefeuil, daughter of ARNAUD [III] Seigneur de Roquefeuil & his wife Jacquette de Combret.  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue records her parentage and marriage contract dated 14 Nov 1361[1138].  The relationship is indicated by the following document: the testament of “Arnaud de Roquefeuil seigneur de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant”, dated 29 Sep 1385, appointed “Catherine sa fille...femme de noble Jean de Blanquefort” as his heir, naming [her son] “...son neveu Hugues d’Arpajon...” as successive substitutes[1139].  Bérenger [II] & his wife had children:

E.      VICOMTES de MILLAU

 

 

Vicomtes de Millau are named from the 930s.  From the mid-11th century it was held jointly with the vicomté of Gévaudan.  The vicomté of Millau included the city of Millau {Aveyron} (Latin Amiliavum).  

 

 

The primary sources which confirm the parentage and marriages of the members of this family have not so far been identified, unless otherwise shown below. 

 

 

1.         BERENGER [I], son of BERNARD [II] Vicomte de Rouergue & his wife --- .  "Bernardo vicecomite et infantes suos Berengario et Bernardo" exchanged property with the abbey of Vabre by charter dated Dec 937[1204]Vicomte de Millaum ---.  The name and origin of Bérenger's wife are not known.   Settipani suggests that she was the daughter of Richard, fiduciaire de Salluster in 920[1205], presumably to explain transmission of his name into the family. 

 

2.         RICHARD [I] (-[28 Jul 1013/1023])Vicomte de Millau.  “Ricardus vicecomes” donated "mea medietate de illa ecclesia de Seveyrago et illa mea de Padicia villa...in pago Ruthenico in vicaria Laiciasense" to Lézat by charter dated Jul [1002][1206]A charter dated 28 Jul 1013 records a hearing of a claim by "Richardus per vocem uxoris suæ Senegundis" in Béziers against "Garsindis comitissa" who refers to property granted to her by "pater meus dominus Villelmus vicecomes"[1207]m SENEGONDE de Béziers, daughter of GUILLAUME [II] Vicomte de Béziers & his first wife Ermentrude --- ([980]-after 22 Mar 1013).  The testament of "Guillelmus vicecomes", dated 990, appointed "…Arsindis vicecomitissa…" among his executors and named "filia sua Garsindis…filia mea Senegundis"[1208]A charter dated 28 Jul 1013 records a hearing of a claim by "Richardus per vocem uxoris suæ Senegundis" in Béziers against "Garsindis comitissa" who refers to property granted to her by "pater meus dominus Villelmus vicecomes"[1209]The primary source which confirms the identity of Senegonde's mother has not yet been identified, although it is implied from the testament of her father dated 990. 

 

3.         RICHARDE (-after 7 Jun 1032).  Stasser suggests that the wife of Raymond [I] Vicomte de Narbonne was the daughter of Bérenger Vicomte de Millau to explain transmission of the name Bérenger into the Narbonne family[1210].  From a chronological point of view, this appears implausible.  "Ermengaudus archipraesul" names "Ricardis vicecomitissa…Raymundo vicecomite et Berengario filio ejus...Willelmo nepoti meo…Berengario nepoti meo" in a charter dated 22 Mar 1023[1211].   "Berengarius" donated property by charter dated 7 Jun 1032, subscribed by "Berengarii vicecomitis, Ricardis vicecomitissae matris ejus…Garsindis uxoris eiusdem, Raymundi filii eorum..."[1212]m RAYMOND [I] Vicomte de Narbonne, son of MATFRED Vicomte de Narbonne & his wife Adelais --- (-1019).]

F.      SEIGNEURS de ROQUEFEUIL

 

 

The barony of Roquefeuil was located on the border between Rouergue and Languedoc.  Its territories included, in the county of Rouergue, Nant, Saint-Jean-du-Bruel, Sauclières and the castle of Aigues near Saint-Michel de Roubiac[1257].  The castle of Roquefeuil itself, now in ruins, was built on Mont Saint-Guiral which lies about 20 kilometres south-east of Millau, between Saint-Jean-du-Bruel in the present-day French département of Aveyron, arrondissement Millau, canton Nant, and Alzon (département of Gard, arrondissement Le Vigan, canton Alzon). 

 

The early history of the castle of Roquefeuil is obscure.  The testament of Fulcrand Bishop of Lodève, undated but dated to the late 9th century, donated the part of the château de Roquefeuil which he had inherited from "Bernard son cousin" to the abbey of Saint-Pierre de Nant, the Histoire Générale de Languedoc commenting on an earlier page "ce qui peut fait croire qu’il appartenoit à la famille des seigneurs de ce château"[1258].  The bishop’s cousin “Bernard” may have been the same person as “Bernardus et uxor mea Udalgarda” who donated “in pago Ruthenico in ministerio Nantense...ecclesiam...sancti Petri in villa Triancianico...Nante” to Vabres by charter dated 878[1259].  This couple has not otherwise been traced. 

 

 

Two possible siblings, parents not known: 

1.         --- de Roquefeuilm ---.  One child: 

a)         HENRI de Roquefeuil (-after 21 Feb 1002).  The codicil of “Henry de Roquefeuil vicomte de Creisel et baron de Roquefeuil...habitant dudit Creisel”, dated 21 Feb 1002, requested the foundation of a hospital for the poor “sur la montagne de l’Espérou” and required “Bernat son fils et héritier” to appoint a superintendant, substituting “l’évêque de Nîmes son cousin[1260].  m ---.  The name of Henri’s wife is not known.  Henri & his wife had one child: 

i)          BERNARD de Roquefeuil .  The codicil of “Henry de Roquefeuil vicomte de Creisel et baron de Roquefeuil...habitant dudit Creisel”, dated 21 Feb 1002, requested the foundation of a hospital for the poor “sur la montagne de l’Espérou” and required “Bernat son fils et héritier” to appoint a superintendant, substituting “l’évêque de Nîmes son cousin[1261]

2.         [GAUCIANA [de Roquefeuil] Her possible family origin and marriage are indicated by the following document: the codicil of “Henry de Roquefeuil vicomte de Creisel et baron de Roquefeuil...habitant dudit Creisel”, dated 21 Feb 1002, requested the foundation of a hospital for the poor “sur la montagne de l’Espérou” and required “Bernat son fils et héritier” to appoint a superintendant, substituting “l’évêque de Nîmes son cousin[1262].  The precise interpretation of “cousin” (“consanguineus”?) is difficult to assess.  Gauciana, mother of Frothaire Bishop of Nîmes, could have been the maternal aunt of the testator or the family relationship may have been more distant.  m (before 9 Jun 956) BERNARD [II] Vicomte d’Albi, son of ATON [II] Vicomte d'Albi & his wife Diasfronisa --- (-[after 9 Jul 972]).]  

 

 

1.         SEGUIN de Roquefeuil (-after 1032).  "Siguinus de Rocafullo" donated property “in comitatu Lutevense...in villa...Suls...Camollas...Rocheta et Dodosa de Justa...Gallaco...et...in com,itatu Ruthenense in villa...Cremats“ to the abbey of Saint-Guilhem-du-Désert by charter dated 1032, in the presence of "...Raimundo de Salveo et Archerii de Paula et Berengarii fratris sui et Berengarii de Salveo"[1263]

 

2.         RAYMOND de Roquefeuil (-after 1080).  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue records a donation to Saint-Guilhem-du-Désert made by “Raymond de Roquefeuil” in 1080, noting that “les cartulaires de Sylvanès et de Vabres” mention other members of the family[1264]

 

3.         GEOFFROY de Roquefeuilm ---.  The name of Geoffroy’s wife is not known.  Geoffroy & his wife had one child: 

a)         ADELAIS de Roquefeuil (-after Nov 1169).  The primary source which confirms her family origin has not yet been identified.  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue records her marriage, which it dates “1129”, and names her father “Geoffroy de Roquefeuil[1265].  Given the marriage contract of their son Raymond in Nov 1169, [1129] is very early for this marriage.  It is more likely that the couple married in [1145/55].  "Guillelmus dominus Montispessulani" granted "filiam meam Guillelmam" to "Bertrando de Andusia et uxori tuæ Adalaiz" for four years from "hoc festo sanctæ Mariæ Februarii", after which she would be married to "filio vestro Raimundo de Rocafolio", by charter dated Nov 1109, but redated to Nov 1169[1266]m ([1145/55]) BERTRAND d’Anduze, son of --- ([1120/30]-[Nov 1169/19 Mar 1175]). 

 

4.         --- de Roquefeuil (-before 1142).  He is not named in the 1142 charter quoted below, but the presence of his daughter Adelais suggests that he might have been Geoffroy who is named above.  m MARIE, daughter of --- (-after 1142).  Fredulo de Rocafolio et...Maria mater eius et...Agnes et...Adalaiz sorores Fredulonis” donated property “in parrochia Sancti Xristofori de Cooperturata...in territorium de Solgs” to Sylvanès, for the souls of “patris nostri et Raimundi fratris nostri”, by charter dated 1142[1267]--- & his wife had four children:  

a)         RAYMOND de Roquefeuil (-before 1142).  “Fredulo de Rocafolio et...Maria mater eius et...Agnes et...Adalaiz sorores Fredulonis” donated “...territorium de Solgs” to Sylvanès, for the souls of “patris nostri et Raimundi fratris nostri”, by charter dated 1142[1268]

b)         FREDULON de Roquefeuil .  “Fredulo de Rocafolio et...Maria mater eius et...Agnes et...Adalaiz sorores Fredulonis” donated “...territorium de Solgs” to Sylvanès, for the souls of “patris nostri et Raimundi fratris nostri”, by charter dated 1142[1269]

RAYMOND d'Anduze, son of BERTRAND Seigneur d'Anduze & his wife Adelais [de Roquefeuil] (-after Oct 1200)Seigneur de Roquefeuil et de Meyrueis, Vicomte de Creissels, Comptor de Nant.  “Bernard d’Anduze” and “Raymond de Roquefeuil” shared their castles, the latter acquiring rights to “[le] château de Meyrueis...en Agremont...en Esparron...en Autrive...en Plagnol...en Montesquieu”, by charter dated 2 Sep 1188[1272].  Co-seigneur de Brissac: “Vierna de Agantico [Ganges] et G. Petri eius filius” and "R. de Rochafolio et fratri tuo B. de Andusia...domine Alazaiz filii" swore homage for "castrum de Breissacho" [Brissac] by charter dated May 1189[1273]

m (contract Nov 1169, [1174]) GUILLEMETTE [“Marchisia"] de Montpellier, daughter of GUILLAUME [VII] Seigneur de Montpellier & his wife Mathilde de Bourgogne (-[8 Jan 1212]]).  Under his testament dated 29 Sep 1173, "Guillelmus dominus Montispessulani, filius quondam Sibilie" names his daughters "Guillelme…Adelais…Marie", stating that they should each receive the same dowry as their sister Sibylle[1274].  "Guillelmus dominus Montispessulani" granted "filiam meam Guillelmam" to "Bertrando de Andusia et uxori tuæ Adalaiz" for four years from "hoc festo sanctæ Mariæ Februarii", after which she would be married to "filio vestro Raimundo de Rocafolio", by charter dated Nov 1109, but redated to Nov 1169[1275].  "Raimundus de Rocafolio et…Guillelma uxor ejus que vocor Marchisia" acknowledged payment by "Guillemus dominus Montispessulani, filius quondam Mathildis ducisse" of the dowry promised to her, by charter dated Oct 1200[1276]Domina Marchisia de Rochafolio” confirmed the accuracy of declarations by witnesses “quia sunt de parentela” in a charter dated 8 Jan 1211 (O.S.) relating to the divorce on grounds of consanguinity between Marie de Montpellier and Pedro II King of Aragon[1277].  It is difficult see to whom this confirmation can relate apart from the wife of Raymond de Roquefeuil.  Either she was the same person as Guillemette de Montpellier (which seems likely considering her relationship with Marie de Montpellier) or a second otherwise unrecorded wife of Raymond. 

Raymond & his wife had five children: 

1.         RAYMOND [II] de Roquefeuil (-after 24 Aug 1229).  Guillaume [VIII] Seigneur de Montpellier, in his testament dated 4 Nov 1202, named "R. Gaucelinum nepotem meum dominum Lunelli...nepotem meum R. de Rocafolio" as successive substitute heirs should his daughters not survive[1278]Seigneur de Roquefeuil.  The testament of “Raimond de Roquefeuil”, dated 24 Aug 1229, bequeathed property to “Delphine sa femme” to construct a monastery[1279]m DAUPHINE de Turenne, daughter of [BOSON [III] de Turenne & his wife ---] ([before 1191/92]-6 Jun 1270).  The testament of “Raimond de Roquefeuil”, dated 24 Aug 1229, bequeathed property to “Delphine sa femme” to construct a monastery[1280]The primary source which confirms her parentage has not been identified.  It is suggested by the charter dated 1267 quoted below, which indicates that the succession to Turenne was challenged.  This challenge is best explained if Marguerite and her sister Dauphine had a senior claim to the vicomté, as daughters of Boson [III], but were set aside in favour of their paternal uncle Raymond [III] when their father died, being infants at the time.  A decision of the Paris parliament dated 1267 confirmed their inheritance to “la vicomtesse de Comborn et Delphine de Rochafolio sœurs” against “le vicomte de Turenne[1281].  Raymond [II] & his wife had two children: 

a)         ISABELLE de Roquefeuil (26 Sep ----).  She was heiress of the vicomté of Creissels {Aveyron] and of the baronnies of Meyrueis and Roquefeuil {Lozère}.  “Arnaud de Roquefeuil” swore allegiance to “le comte de Rodez et Elisabeth son épouse” for “le château d’Algue” by charter dated 28 Jun 1233[1282].  The testament of “Isabellis filia quondam nobilis viri domini Raymundi de Rocafolio, uxor nunc domini comitis Ruthenensis” is dated 24 Sep 1252 names “dominæ Dalphinæ matris meæ” and “filiarum mearum et dicti domini comitis…Valborgis, Helis, Alcaietæ et Dalphinetæ…filius meus et heres Aenricus”, and requested burial at Nonenque[1283].  The necrology of the priory of Cassan records the death "VI Kal Oct" of "Elizabeth comitissa Ruthenensis"[1284]m (before 28 Jun 1233) HUGUES [IV] Comte de Rodez, son of HENRI [I] Comte de Rodez & his wife Alcayette d'Escorailles (-1274, bur Nonenques). 

b)         RAYMONDE de Roquefeuil (-after 2 Jul 1298).  "Raimunda filia quondam bone memorie...Raimundi de Rocafolio", with the consent of “domina Dalphina mater mea...dominus Hugo...comes Ruthenensis...cum domina Ysabella eadem...comitissa Ruthene et sorore mea”, renounced rights to Roquefeuil as part of her marriage contract with “Bertrandum de Andusia filium...domini Raimundi de Andusia” by charter dated 21 Apr 1246, and later “Bertrandus de Andusia”, in the presence of “domino Raimundo de Andusia patre meo”, confirmed this agreement by charter dated 20 Sep 1247[1285].  “Raymonde dame de Florac” swore homage 27 May 1270, 23 Jun 1292, and 2 Jul 1298[1286]m (contract 21 Apr 1246) BERTRAND Seigneur d’Anduze, son of RAYMOND Seigneur d’Anduze & his wife --- (-before 24 Apr 1259). 

2.         ARNAUD [I] de Roquefeuil (-after 5 Oct 1242).  “Bernis” sold his rights to the succession of “Azemard Guilhaume de Cantobre et de Guilhaume de Cantobre son père d’Agnès sa mère” to “Arnaud de Roquefeuil” by charter dated Dec 1213[1287].  “Pierre Bermond seigneur de Sauve” leased certain rights, including those which “Bertrand d’Anduze...Adalasie fille dudit Bertrand d’Anduze” had held, to “Arnaud de Roquefeuil noble écuyer du château de Roquefeuil”, with Arnaud acknowledging receipt of money promised if his marriage to “la sœur dudit de Sauve” had not taken place, by charter dated 1 Mar 1227[1288]Seigneur de Roquefeuil.  “Arnaud de Roquefeuil” swore allegiance to “le comte de Rodez et Elisabeth son épouse” [his niece and her husband] for “le château d’Algue”, and excluding possible claims by Arnaud relating to assets which had belonged to “Raymond son frère”, by charter dated 28 Jun 1233[1289].  The testament of Arnaud de Roquefeuil, dated 3 Nov 1241, bequeathed property to “Guilhaume son fils naturel...Jean son fils naturel...Bertrand son autre fils naturel...Raymond son autre fils naturel...Azalaicié et Hélix ses deux filles”, confirmed having received dowry with “Béatrix sa femme” and appointed her as guardian of his children with advice from “Guillaume frère du testateur abbé de Saint-Guilhem et de Pierre Jourdan son cousin”, named “Raymond son fils” as his heir, substituting his other children and “Déodat de Caylus son neveu...Elizabeth sa nièce fille de feu Bernat de Roquefeuil son frère[1290].  [m firstly ([1210/20]?) ---.  The possibility of this first marriage is indicated by the participation of Arnaud’s son Guillaume in the 20 Jun 1236 charter quoted below.  An earlier otherwise unrecorded marriage would also be consistent with Arnaud’s likely age (considering his parents’ marriage in [1169/74]).  The highly speculative possibility that this marriage was declared void due to a procedural defect is discussed below under her possible legitimate son Guillaume.]  Betrothed (before 1 Mar 1227) --- d’Anduze, daughter of PIERRE BERMOND Seigneur d'Anduze et de Sauve & his wife Constance de Toulouse (-after 24 Feb 1289).  Her parentage and betrothal are confirmed by the following document: “Pierre Bermond seigneur de Sauve” leased certain rights, including those which “Bertrand d’Anduze...Adalasie fille dudit Bertrand d’Anduze” had held, to “Arnaud de Roquefeuil noble écuyer du château de Roquefeuil”, with Arnaud acknowledging receipt of money promised if his marriage to “la sœur dudit de Sauve” did not take place, by charter dated 1 Mar 1227 (O.S.?)[1291].  The last phrase indicates the marriage must not have taken place, otherwise the condition for payment of the money would not have been satisfied.  m [secondly] ([after Mar 1228]) BEATRIX, daughter of ---.  The testament of Arnaud de Roquefeuil, dated 3 Nov 1241, confirmed having received dowry with “Béatrix sa femme” and appointed her as guardian of his children with advice from “Guillaume frère du testateur abbé de Saint-Guilhem et de Pierre Jourdan son cousin[1292].  Beatrix’s family origin has not been ascertained.  As noted above, the wording of the 1 Mar 1227 charter indicates that the improbability that she was the daughter of Pierre Bermond [IV] d’Anduze: if a second daughter had been substituted for the daughter to whom Arnaud [I] was betrothed (assuming her death before the marriage could take place), some alternative arrangement would have been agreed about the compensation payable.  “Béatrix femme de noble Arnaud de Roquefeuil” granted “le château de Valgarnidi” to “Raymond de Roquefeuil son fils” by charter dated 7 Mar 1258[1293].  The testament of “Béatrix de Roquefeuil femme de feu Arnaud de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant”, dated 24 Feb 1289, bequeathed property to “Roquefeuille sa fille...Soubairane sa petite fille...Izabeau aussi sa petite fille” and named “Raimond de Roquefeuil son petit fils” as her heir[1294].  Arnaud [I] & his [first] wife had [one child]: 

a)         [GUILLAUME de Roquefeuil (-[20 Jun 1236/3 Nov 1241]).  A charter dated 20 Jun 1236 records an agreement between the prior of Notre-Dame de Bonheur and “Arnaud et Guilhaume de Roquefeuil père et fils” settling disputes[1295].  The presence of Guillaume in this document suggests that he was his father’s oldest son and heir at the time, although he would have been less than eight years old unless born from an earlier otherwise unrecorded marriage of his father as noted above.  If this is correct, Guillaume would have died before his father’s 3 Nov 1241 testament in which he is not named.  A difficulty with this hypothesis is the existence of Arnaud’s illegitimate son Guillaume who is named in his father’s testament as shown below.  It would be unusual for an illegitimate son to be associated with his father in a charter like the 20 Jun 1236 document.  Another highly speculative possibility is that the illegitimate Guillaume was considered legitimate at that time but that his parents’ marriage was later declared void, maybe because a Papal dispensation was refused to correct a perceived anomaly which emerged after 1236.  This could also account for the prominent position accorded to Guillaume and his brothers in his father’s testament (in which Guillaume was granted the castle of Beauvoisin), where they are all mentioned first.] 

Arnaud [I] & his [second] wife had [five] children:

b)         RAYMOND [III] de Roquefeuil (-1281 or after).  The testament of Arnaud de Roquefeuil, dated 3 Nov 1241, named “Raymond son fils” as his heir, substituting his other children and “Déodat de Caylus son neveu...Elizabeth sa nièce fille de feu Bernat de Roquefeuil son frère[1296]Seigneur de Roquefeuil.  “Béatrix femme de noble Arnaud de Roquefeuil” granted “le château de Valgarnidi” to “Raymond de Roquefeuil son fils” by charter dated 7 Mar 1258[1297].  The testament of “Raymond de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant et seigneur d’Algue”, dated 17 Mar 1281, confirmed having received dowry with “Alazacié sa femme”, bequeathed property to “Béatrix sa fille femme de Dragonet de Castelnau...Elisabeth son autre fille...Miracles son autre fille...Marquèze, Yrdoine et Guize ses autres filles...Raymond son fils”, appointed as his heir “Arnaud de Roquefeuil son fils”, naming as successive substitutes “ses autres fils posthumes...Déodat de Bosagues fils d’Elis de Roquefeuil sa sœur...Henry comte de Rodez[1298]m ([10 Jul/22 Oct] 1267) ALASIE de Châteauneuf, daughter of ODILON GUERIN [III] de Châteauneuf Seigneur de Chapion & his wife Miracle de Montlaur (-after Mar 1287).  “Dominum Odilonem Guarinum dominum castri de Chapione” returned “castrum de Chapione...castrum de Monteteguloso et castrum de Montemirato” to the bishop of Mende, by two charters dated 10 Jul 1267, the second witnessed by “...W. de Alvernia, domina Miracla uxor dicti Odilonis, domina Alacia et Eracleus monachus filii sui...[1299].  “Raymundus de Rocafolio miles”, with the consent of “Alazacie uxris mee”, returned “castrum de Montemirato...dotis dicte uxoris mee...” to the bishop of Mende, with the consent of “dominus Guigonis de Turnello et Odilo eius filius socer meus”, by charter dated 22 Oct 1267[1300].  The testament of “Raymond de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant et seigneur d’Algue”, dated 17 Mar 1281, confirmed having received dowry with “Alazacié sa femme[1301].  The testament of “Alazacié de Roquefeuil femme du noble Baron Mre de Roquefeuil et fille de Mre Rilguary”, dated Mar 1287, made bequests to “Miracle sa mère...Raymond son fils...Marquize, Yrdoine et Guize ses filles...Guillaume son fils” and appointed “Arnaud de Roquefeuil son fils” as her heir, naming “Raimond et Guillaume” as successive substitutes[1302].  Raymond [III] & his wife had nine children: 

i)          ARNAUD [II] de Roquefeuil (-[Mar 1287/24 Feb 1289]).  The testament of “Raymond de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant et seigneur d’Algue”, dated 17 Mar 1281, appointed as his heir “Arnaud de Roquefeuil son fils”, naming as successive substitutes “ses autres fils posthumes...Déodat de Bosagues fils d’Elis de Roquefeuil sa sœur...Henry comte de Rodez[1303]Seigneur de Roquefeuil.  The testament of “Alazacié de Roquefeuil femme du noble Baron Mre de Roquefeuil et fille de Mre Rilguary”, dated Mar 1287, appointed “Arnaud de Roquefeuil son fils” as her heir, naming “Raimond et Guillaume” as successive substitutes[1304].  He presumably died before the 24 Feb 1289 testament of his paternal grandmother, in which his younger brother Raymond [IV] is named as her heir. 

ii)         BEATRIX de Roquefeuil (-after 9 Nov [1283]).  The testament of “Raymond de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant et seigneur d’Algue”, dated 17 Mar 1281, bequeathed property to “Béatrix sa fille femme de Dragonet de Castelnau...Elisabeth son autre fille...Miracles son autre fille...Marquèze, Yrdoine et Guize ses autres filles...Raymond son fils[1305].  Her testament was dated 9 Nov 1283[1306].  Jourda de Vaux (dating the testament to 9 Nov 1287) records that she bequeathed property to her brother Armand[1307]m DRAGONNET [de Châteauneuf] Seigneur de Joyeuse, son of [RANDON de Châteauneuf & his wife Vierne d’Anduze Dame de Joyeuse] (-after 26 Mar 1289). 

iii)        ELISABETH de Roquefeuil .  The testament of “Raymond de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant et seigneur d’Algue”, dated 17 Mar 1281, bequeathed property to “Béatrix sa fille femme de Dragonet de Castelnau...Elisabeth son autre fille...Miracles son autre fille...Marquèze, Yrdoine et Guize ses autres filles...Raymond son fils[1308]

v)         MARQUESE de Roquefeuil .  The testament of “Raymond de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant et seigneur d’Algue”, dated 17 Mar 1281, bequeathed property to “Béatrix sa fille femme de Dragonet de Castelnau...Elisabeth son autre fille...Miracles son autre fille...Marquèze, Yrdoine et Guize ses autres filles...Raymond son fils[1310].  The testament of “Alazacié de Roquefeuil femme du noble Baron Mre de Roquefeuil et fille de Mre Rilguary”, dated Mar 1287, made bequests to “...Raymond son fils...Marquize, Yrdoine et Guize ses filles...Guillaume son fils[1311]

vi)        IRDOINE de Roquefeuil .  The testament of “Raymond de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant et seigneur d’Algue”, dated 17 Mar 1281, bequeathed property to “Béatrix sa fille femme de Dragonet de Castelnau...Elisabeth son autre fille...Miracles son autre fille...Marquèze, Yrdoine et Guize ses autres filles...Raymond son fils[1312].  The testament of “Alazacié de Roquefeuil femme du noble Baron Mre de Roquefeuil et fille de Mre Rilguary”, dated Mar 1287, made bequests to “...Raymond son fils...Marquize, Yrdoine et Guize ses filles...Guillaume son fils[1313]

vii)      GUISE de Roquefeuil .  The testament of “Raymond de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant et seigneur d’Algue”, dated 17 Mar 1281, bequeathed property to “Béatrix sa fille femme de Dragonet de Castelnau...Elisabeth son autre fille...Miracles son autre fille...Marquèze, Yrdoine et Guize ses autres filles...Raymond son fils[1314].  The testament of “Alazacié de Roquefeuil femme du noble Baron Mre de Roquefeuil et fille de Mre Rilguary”, dated Mar 1287, made bequests to “...Raymond son fils...Marquize, Yrdoine et Guize ses filles...Guillaume son fils[1315]

-        see below.    

ix)        GUILLAUME de Roquefeuil (after Mar 1281-after 9 May 1297).  Guillaume was presumably one of “ses autres fils posthumes” who are mentioned in the 17 Mar 1281 of his father.  The reference to posthumous sons in the plural suggests that twins were expected, one of whom presumably died as an infant.  The testament of “Alazacié de Roquefeuil femme du noble Baron Mre de Roquefeuil et fille de Mre Rilguary”, dated Mar 1287, made bequests to “...Raymond son fils...Marquize, Yrdoine et Guize ses filles...Guillaume son fils[1317].  The testament of “Raimond de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant fils et héritier d’autre Raimond de Roquefeuil”, dated 9 May 1297, named as his heir “l’enfant mâle qui naîtra de la dite Vaurie sa femme”, with “ses filles...Guillaume de Roquefeuil son frère” as successive substitutes[1318]

d)         HELISE de Roquefeuil .  The testament of Arnaud de Roquefeuil, dated 3 Nov 1241, bequeathed property to “...Azalaicié et Hélix ses deux filles[1320].  Her marriage is indicated by the testament of her brother, quoted below.  m --- de Bosagues, son of ---.  One child:

f)          [--- de Roquefeuil .  The name of the Roquefeuil parent of the two children named below is not known.  It is possible that he/she was one of the other children of Arnaud [I] who are named above.  It is also possible that the two children were not sisters, but first cousins.  m ---.  [Two children]: 

i)          [SOUVERAINE de --- .  The testament of “Béatrix de Roquefeuil femme de feu Arnaud de Roquefeuil comtor de Nant”, dated 24 Feb 1289, bequeathed property to “Roquefeuille sa fille...Soubairane sa petite fille...Izabeau aussi sa petite fille” and named “Raimond de Roquefeuil son petit fils” as her heir[1323].]

Arnaud [I] had four illegitimate children by an unknown mistress or mistresses (the highly speculative possibility that some or all of them were born from the possible first marriage of their father is discussed above, under his possible legitimate son Guillaume): 

g)         GUILLAUME [de Roquefeuil] (-after 3 Nov 1241).  The testament of Arnaud de Roquefeuil, dated 3 Nov 1241, bequeathed property to “Guilhaume son fils naturel [...le château de Beauvoisin]...Jean son fils naturel...Bertrand son autre fils naturel...Raymond son autre fils naturel...[1325]same person as...?  GUILLAUME de Roquefeuil (-after 13 Jul 1274).  A charter dated 13 Jul 1274 records that “Guilhaume de Roquefeuil” founded an annual distribution of bread and wine in the parish of Saint-Jean, requesting “Raimond de Roquefeuil son fils” to perform certain obligations[1326].  The identity of the founder has not been ascertained with certainty.  Guillaume, son of Raymond [III] Seigneur de Roquefeuil, was not yet born, while Guillaume, legitimate son of Arnaud [I] was probably deceased at the time as suggested above.  The alternatives therefore appear to be that the founder was Arnaud [I]’s illegitimate son Guillaume, or was a more remote relative of the family, descended from an otherwise unrecorded younger brother of Arnaud [I].  Seigneur de Miravalles.  m RICARDA, daughter of ---.  She is named Ricarda by Figuière (see below) (no source cited).  Guillaume & his wife had one child:

i)          RAYMOND de Roquefeuil [RAMÓN de Rocafull] ).  A charter dated 13 Jul 1274 records that “Guilhaume de Roquefeuil” founded an annual distribution of bread and wine in the parish of Saint-Jean, requesting “Raimond de Roquefeuil son fils” to perform certain obligations[1327]Figuière records that “Ramon de Rocafull, fondateur du lignage du royaume de Murcia, était fils cadet de Guilhelm de Roquefeuil et son épouse Ricarde” and his marriage (no source cited)[1328]Adelantado mayor del reino de Murcia.  m SANCHA Gil de Villalobos, daughter of GIL Manrique Señor de Manzanedo & his wife Teresa Fernández.  Salazar y Castro records her parentage and marriage[1329].  Ramón & his wife had one child: 

(1)        GUILLEM de Rocafull (-after 1314).  Figuière records his parentage (see below).  Señor de Abanilla.  m BERENGUELA Díaz de Haro, daughter of ---.  Figuière names her (see below).  Guillem & his wife had one child: 

(a)        JUAN Díaz de Rocafull (-after 1352).  Figuière records the 1352 Becerro de las behetrias which lists 29 places in Castille in which Juan Díaz was joint señor, of which seven in which he was “seigneur principal”, and that “il possédait aussi à Valdecañas une maison forte dans laquelle son père Guillem avait accueilli et protégé le prince don Juan Manuel en 1314”, noting that he had “recueilli l’héritage de son père Guillem, seigneur d’Abanilla, de sa mère Berenguela Díaz [de Haro] et de sa belle-mère Berenguela García [de Villamayor], ainsi que de sa grand-mère Sancha Gil [de Manzanedo-Villalobos]” (no source citation)[1330].  Figuière records that in 1347 Juan Díaz presented to the alcalde of Toledo, on the recommendation of Alfonso XI King of Castile, a Spanish translation of a charter in Arabic which confirmed his wife’s “droits de propriété sur un groupe de maisons à Tolède dans la paroisse San Román…léguées en 1236 par Juan Estébanez, fils d’Esteban Illán et époux de María Salvadores à leur fille Mencía, ancêtre d’Urraca Méndez de Ribera” (no source citation)[1331]m ---, daughter of --- & his wife Berenguela García de Villamayor.  Figuière records that Juan Díaz de Rocafull had “recueilli l’héritage de…sa belle-mère Berenguela García [de Villamayor]…”, but also (appearing to contradict the earlier statement) that he married “Urraca Méndez de Ribera, fille du chevalier de Tolède Gonzalo López et María Fernández”, noting that “Gonzalo López était par sa mère issu de l’antique famille mozarabe tolédane plus tard dénommée Álvarez de Toledo…” (no source citation)[1332]

h)         JEAN [de Roquefeuil] (-after 3 Nov 1241).  The testament of Arnaud de Roquefeuil, dated 3 Nov 1241, bequeathed property to “Guilhaume son fils naturel...Jean son fils naturel...Bertrand son autre fils naturel...Raymond son autre fils naturel...[1333].  : 

i)           BERTRAND [de Roquefeuil] (-after 3 Nov 1241).  The testament of Arnaud de Roquefeuil, dated 3 Nov 1241, bequeathed property to “Guilhaume son fils naturel...Jean son fils naturel...Bertrand son autre fils naturel...Raymond son autre fils naturel...[1334].  :

3.         GUILLAUME de Roquefeuil (-after 3 Nov 1241).  Abbot of Saint-Guillaume-du-Désert: the testament of Arnaud de Roquefeuil, dated 3 Nov 1241, confirmed having received dowry with “Béatrix sa femme” and appointed her as guardian of his children with advice from “Guillaume frère du testateur abbé de Saint-Guilhem et de Pierre Jourdan son cousin[1336].

5.         --- de Roquefeuil .  Her parentage and marriage are indicated by the 3 Nov 1241 testament of her brother Arnaud [I], quoted below.  m --- de Caylus, son of ---. 

 

 

The relationship between the following persons and the main Roquefeuil family has not been ascertained.  The chronology suggests that Jean de Roquefeuil may have been the same person as Jean, illegitimate son of Arnaud [I] Seigneur de Roquefeuil, who is named above. 

 

1.         JEAN de Roquefeuilm ---.  The name of Jean’s wife is not known.  Jean & his wife had one child: 

a)         GUILLAUME de Roquefeuil (-after 13 Nov 1316).  Seigneur de Versols.  “Arnaud de Roquefeuil et autre Arnaud de Roquefeuil son fils” granted property rights to “Guyon de Cabluc damoiseau du château de Cabluc et coseigneur de Monstuéjols” and leased interests he held resulting from a sale made 13 Nov 1316 by “noble Guillaume de Roquefeuil damoiseau et seigneur du château de Versols, fils et héritier...de noble Jean de Roquefeuil” to “noble Raymond de Roquefeuil seigneur du château d’Algues ayeul dudit Arnaud”, by charter dated 19 Nov 1361[1338]

G.      VICOMTES de ROUERGUE

 

 

The origins of the vicomtes de Rouergue are obscure.  The name “Frédélon”, see below, suggests a connection with the family of the Comtes de Toulouse.  Curiously, this suggestion is supported by a much later document: the charter dated Dec 1650, under which Louis XIV King of France established the Marquis de Sévérac as Duc d’Arpajon, states that the title-holder at the time was “issu de père en fils des anciens comtes de Toulouse[1380].  The seigneurs d’Arpajon, descended from the Comtes de Rodez who derived, it would seem, from the vicomtes de Rouergue.  The surviving primary source information is insufficient to verify a continuous line of descent as can be seen below

 

 

1.         RAINO (-after Jan [934]).  Vicomte [de Rouergue].  "Ermengaudus comes et filius suus Regimundus et Rainus vicecomes et vicarius" donated property "in pago Ruthenico in ministerio Curiense in villa…Seviniaco" to Vabres by charter dated Jan [934], subscribed by "…Ugone filio Ermengaudo, Bernardo vicecomite, Ildoino, Adalone"[1381]

H.      SEIGNEURS de SEVERAC

 

 

Sévérac, now known as Sévérac-le-Château, is located about 15 kilometres north of Millau, in the present-day French département of Aveyron, arrondissement Millau, canton Sévérac-le-Château.  The origins of the first seigneurial family are obscure.  The charter dated Dec 1650, under which Louis XIV King of France established the Marquis de Sévérac as Duc d’Arpajon, states that “la maison de Sévérac...a tiré son origine des rois d’Aragon, comtes de Barcelone, et d’une princesse d’Irlande[1394].  It is not clear from the document whether this reference relates to the Arpajon family or to the original Sévérac family, but either way this alleged line of ancestry appear to be legendary (although curiously the arms of Arpajon display an Irish harp[1395]). 

 

The earliest reference to Sévérac appears to be the charter dated 21 Jul 882 under which “Bernardus...comes et uxor mea Hermengardis” [Bernard “Plantevelue” Comte d’Auvergne, Duke of Gothia, see AQUITAINE DUKES] donated property “in pago Rutenico, in vicaria Severiacense...villa...Bautone” to Conques, “Deodato...” being the first-named subscriber[1396].  The prominent position of “Deodato” in the subscription list suggests some interest in the property donated, although this suggestion must remain unproven as, typical of 9th century documentation, the subscribers’ names are unqualified by geographical epithets.  Sporadic later references to Sévérac include the charter dated Jul [1002] under which “Richard vicecomes” [Richard [I] Vicomte de Millau] donated "mea medietate de illa ecclesia de Seveyrago et illa mea de Padicia villa...in pago Ruthenico in vicaria Laiciasense" to Lézat[1397], suggesting that Sévérac was under the suzerainty of the vicomté de Millau at the time. 

 

Sévérac passed to Jean [IV] Comte d’Armagnac in 1427, in accordance with the testament of Aimery last Seigneur de Sévérac of the original seigneurial family.  The Armagnac succession was challenged in 1497 by the Arpajon family, descended from the sister of Aimery’s predecessor Guy [X], who disputed the succession to the Armagnac estates by the Chabannes family after the death of Charles Comte d’Armagnac without direct heirs.  The parlement de Paris eventually decided the matter in 1508 in favour of Jean [II] Baron d’Arpajon[1398].  The judgment dated 14 Aug 1508 includes genealogical details of several generations of the original Sévérac family which have been included in the reconstruction set out below[1399]

 

 

 

It is not known whether the following small family group was related to the later Seigneurs de Sévérac.  The name “Déodat” (a name regularly used in the later seigneurial family) given to the older son of Aldégarde suggests the possibility of a family connection, although it is acknowledged that Déodat was not an unusual name in south-western France at that time. 

 

1.         --- .  The name of Aldégarde’s husband is not known.  He was presumably not Raoul, who is named in Aldegarde’s charter, whose heirs were different from Aldégarde’s children as indicated by the wording of that document.  The family relationship, if any, between Aldegarde and Raoul has not been established.  A close connection is suggested by the shared interest in the property donated as indicated by the wording of the charter.  m ALDEGARDE, daughter of ---.  “Femina...Aldegardis et filii eius Deusdedit et Odalricus” donated “alodus duo mansi in pago Ruthenico, in vicaria Severiacense in loco...Tantarione” to Conques, for the souls of themselves and “Radulfi”, guaranteeing against interference from “heredibus Radulfi”, by charter dated Jun [955/85][1400].  Two children: 

a)         DEODAT .  “Femina...Aldegardis et filii eius Deusdedit et Odalricus” donated “alodus duo mansi in pago Ruthenico, in vicaria Severiacense in loco...Tantarione” to Conques by charter dated Jun [955/85][1401]

b)         ODALRIC .  “Femina...Aldegardis et filii eius Deusdedit et Odalricus” donated “alodus duo mansi in pago Ruthenico, in vicaria Severiacense in loco...Tantarione” to Conques by charter dated Jun [955/85][1402]

 

 

The documents quoted below name Guy [I] and Déodat [I] as the earliest known seigneurs de Sévérac.  The problem is deciding which of the two predated the other.  The Mar 1103 charter, reproduced in the Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy as shown below, indicates that Guy [I] founded the abbey of Saint-Sauveur at Sévérac and that the nuns were later expelled from their abbey by Déodat [I].  If the dating of this document is accurate, Guy would have been seigneur some time in the mid-11th century and was succeeded by Déodat.  This suggestion is consistent with the 1070 charter quoted below which was subscribed by ...Deusdedit de Seveyriac...”, who would presumably have been Déodat [I].  A difficulty is introduced by the Documens Historiques du Rouergue which dates the foundation of Saint-Sauveur by Guy [I] to 1 Mar 1103 and compounds the problem by stating that Guy also founded the priory of Sévérac in 1116[1403].  The date 1 Mar 1103 could be due to a misinterpretation of the Mar 1103 charter, but 1116 is more difficult to explain.  The Documens cites no source justifying the statement about the 1116 foundation, but it is difficult to believe that it was not based on some documentary evidence.  It should be noted that the editor of the Documens dates the expulsion of the nuns from Saint-Sauveur to 4 Mar 1150[1404], a date which is inconsistent with the subscription of the Mar 1103 charter by Richard [II] Vicomte de Millau and his brother Gilbert who were both active in the late.11th/early 12th centuryUntil more documentation emerges, it appears prudent to rely on the Mar 1103 charter and assume that Guy [I] preceded Déodat [I]. 

 

1.         GUY [I] de Sévérac (-before 1103).  Seigneur de Sévérac.  As noted above, the Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy reproduces a charter dated Mar 1103 which records (1) that "in pago Ruthenensi...castrum...Severiacum...Guidone...dominus" founded the abbey of Saint-Saveur at Sévérac, where two of his daughters became nuns with ”major filia Adalburgis” becoming abbess before she was succeeded as such by “altera soror“, and (2) that the nuns were later expelled by Déodat [I] de Sévérac (see below)[1405].  The charter specifies that Guy [I] died without male heirs.  m ---.  The name of Guy’s wife is not known with certainty.  She is not named in the Mar 1103 charter quoted above.  However, the Documens Historiques du Rouergue name “Guy de Sévérac and Aldoinde his wife” as founders of Saint-Sauveur, without citing the source on which this information is based[1406].  The Documens also says that the couple founded the priory of Sévérac in 1116[1407].  As noted above, both these dates are inconsistent with the Mar 1103 charter.  The dubious dating does not inspire confidence and, until more information comes to light, it is suggested that the identity of Guy’s wife should be considered as unknown.  Guy [I] & his wife had [three or more] children: 

a)         daughters .  The Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy notes that Guy [I] only had daughters[1408].  Their number is not specified, but presumably not all them would have become nuns, which suggests that there would have been at least three or them. 

b)         ADALBURGE de SévéracThe Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy records that "in pago Ruthenensi...castrum...Severiacum. ..Guidone...dominus" founded the abbey of Saint-Saveur at Sévérac, where two of his daughters entered as nuns of whom ”major filia Adalburgis” became abbess and was succeeded by “altera soror[1409].  Abbess of Sévérac Saint-Sauveur. 

c)         --- de Sévérac .  Abbess of Sévérac Saint-Sauveur.  The Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy records that “altera soror“ succeeded her sister Adalburge as abbess of Saint-Sauveur[1410]

 

 

1.         DEODAT [I] de Sévérac (-after Mar 1103).  ...Deusdedit de Seveyriac...” subscribed the charter dated 1070 under which "Berengarius, Ricardi quondam vicecomitis filius" donated property to Marseille Saint-Victor[1411]Seigneur de SévéracThe Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy records that "...castrum...Severiacum... dominus...Deodatus...et uxore eius Ermegarda filiisque eorum Guidone, Hugone, Gagone et Deodato" expelled the nuns from Saint-Saveur at Sévérac and, with ”episcopus..:Ademarus cum archidiacono...Odalricho”, installed the monks of Saint-Chaffre, recorded in a charter dated Mar 1103, subscribed by “Richardi vicecomitis et fratris eius Girberti...[1412].  The editor of the Documens Historiques du Rouergue dates the expulsion of the nuns to 4 Mar 1150[1413].  The basis for this date is unknown, but it is inconsistent with the subscription of the Mar 1103 charter by Richard [II] Vicomte de Millau and his brother who were both active in the late.11th/early 12th centurym ERMENGARDE, daughter of --- (-after Mar 1103).  The Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy records that "...castrum...Severiacum... dominus...Deodatus...et uxore eius Ermegarda filiisque eorum Guidone, Hugone, Gagone et Deodato" expelled the nuns from Saint-Saveur at Sévérac and installed the monks of Saint-Chaffre, recorded in a charter dated Mar 1103[1414].  Déodat [II] & his wife had four children: 

a)         GUY [II] de Sévérac .  The Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy records that "...castrum...Severiacum... dominus...Deodatus...et uxore eius Ermegarda filiisque eorum Guidone, Hugone, Gagone et Deodato" expelled the nuns from Saint-Saveur at Sévérac and installed the monks of Saint-Chaffre, recorded in a charter dated Mar 1103[1415]

b)         HUGUES de Sévérac .  The Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy records that "...castrum...Severiacum... dominus...Deodatus...et uxore eius Ermegarda filiisque eorum Guidone, Hugone, Gagone et Deodato" expelled the nuns from Saint-Saveur at Sévérac and installed the monks of Saint-Chaffre, recorded in a charter dated Mar 1103[1416]

c)         GAGON de Sévérac .  The Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy records that "...castrum...Severiacum... dominus...Deodatus...et uxore eius Ermegarda filiisque eorum Guidone, Hugone, Gagone et Deodato" expelled the nuns from Saint-Saveur at Sévérac and installed the monks of Saint-Chaffre, recorded in a charter dated Mar 1103[1417]

d)         DEODAT de Sévérac .  The Chronicle of Saint-Pierre du Puy records that "...castrum...Severiacum... dominus...Deodatus...et uxore eius Ermegarda filiisque eorum Guidone, Hugone, Gagone et Deodato" expelled the nuns from Saint-Saveur at Sévérac and installed the monks of Saint-Chaffre, recorded in a charter dated Mar 1103[1418]

 

 

The parentage of Déodat [II] has not been ascertained.  The names Déodat and Guy suggest descent from Déodat [I].  Déodat [II] may have been the youngest son of Déodat [I] who is named above, or he may have been the son of another unrecorded seigneur who ruled after the death of Déodat [I], maybe Guy [II].  There are not enough precise data points to test whether one of these possibilities should be excluded on chronological grounds. 

 

1.         DEODAT [II] de Sévérac (-after 1147).    [Seigneur de Sévérac: no document has been identified which names Déodat [II] as seigneur.]  Déodat de Sévérac, et Gui le jeune de Sévérac...” witnessed the marriage contract between “Raymond de Sévérac...ma fille Plaz” and “Raymond d’Aigrefeuille” dated 1147[1419]m ---.  The name of Déodat’s wife is not known.  Déodat [II] & his wife had one child: 

a)         GUY [III] de Sévérac (-murdered near Montpellier 5 Apr 1181).  Déodat de Sévérac, et Gui le jeune de Sévérac...” witnessed the marriage contract between “Raymond de Sévérac...ma fille Plaz” and “Raymond d’Aigrefeuille” dated 1147[1420][Seigneur de Sévérac: no document has been identified which names Guy [III] as seigneur.]  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue says that Gui II de Sévérac, fils de Déodat II” was killed near Montpellier 5 Apr 1181 with “Raymond-Bérenger Vicomte de Millau, duquel il avait embrassé le parti contre Raymond comte de Toulouse[1421].  Presumably this report is based on the Chronicon Gaufredi Vosiensis which records that "comes Provinciæ [Raymond Bérenger III Comte de Provence]...cum Guidone de Seveyrac" were killed "non lonè a Montisislerio" by knights of “Ademari filii Sicardi de Mareuil[1422]m ---.  The name of Guy’s wife is  not known.  A clue about her identity is provided by a difficult passage in the Chronicon Gaufredi Vosiensis, which has not been satisfactorily interpreted and has not been corroborated by information in other sources, which records that "Gilbertus comes de Meillau, filius Richardi filii secundi Raymundi Caput-stupæ" had seven daughters, some of whose husbands were "Bertinum le Macre de Sensac vicecomitum de Fenouillet, Hugonem des Baux, Austet seniorem de Mauroloco qui vocatur do Morillos, Guidonem de Severac, Geraldum de Cardaillac"[1423].  The chronology of the Chronicon suggests that “Guidonem de Severac” could have been Guy [III]. 

 

 

The following small family group was presumably descended from a junior line of the Sévérac family.  Another possibility is that Raymond was a knight living at the castle, the name of which he adopted as his family name, who was unrelated to the seigneurial family. 

 

1.         --- de Sévéracm --- [de Peyrelade], daughter of ---.  Her possible family origin is indicating by the marriage contract of her granddaughter Plaz which specifies the agreement of Plaz’s father to pay tout ce que j’ai à Peyrelade...provenant de l’hérédité de ma mère” as part of her dowry.  One child: 

a)         RAYMOND de Sévérac (-after 1147).  m ---.  The name of Raymond’s wife is not known.  Raymond & his wife had one child: 

i)          PLAZ de Sévérac The marriage contract between “Raymond de Sévérac...ma fille Plaz” and “Raymond d’Aigrefeuille” is dated 1147, specifying the bride’s father’s share in the castle of Sévérac and other specified property, including “tout ce que j’ai à Peyrelade...provenant de l’hérédité de ma mère”, as dowry, witnessed by “Déodat de Sévérac, et Gui le jeune de Sévérac...[1424]m (contract 1147) RAYMOND d’Aigrefeuille, son of ---. 

 

 

The parentage of Guy [IV] has not been ascertained.  From a chronological point of view only, he could have been the son of Guy [III].  It is not known whether the original 1189 charter cited below includes the name of his father. 

 

1.         GUY [IV] de Sévérac (-[10 Jun 1209/1211])Seigneur de SévéracHe confirmed the donation of “l’église de Pierrefiche” made by his father to “Pierre abbé de Bonneval” by charter dated 1189[1425].  Guy de Sévérac granted “l’usufruit du château de Saint-Gervais au diocèse de Mende” to “Déodat son gendre” by charter dated 10 Jun 1209[1426]m BEATRIX de Canilhac, daughter of ---.  She is named "Beatrig de Camillag" in the Mar 1208 charter quoted below which names her daughter.  The primary source which confirms her precise parentage has not been identified.  Beatrix must have been heiress to Canilhac, which passed to her grandson Déodat as shown below.  Guy [IV] & his wife had [two] children: 

a)         [HELIE de Sévérac (-after 1211).  Her family origin and marriage are confirmed by the charter dated 1211 under which Pedro II King of Aragon confirmed “castrum et villam de Severaco” to “Raymundo de Torena”, just as “Guido de Severac pater uxoris tuæ... [socer quondam meus]” had held it[1427].  It is likely that Guy [IV] was Hélie’s father, and that she was his older daughter, otherwise it is difficult to explain her husband’s succession to Sévérac after Guy [IV] died.  If that is correct, the absence of any indication of Vicomte Raymond’s successors claiming Sévérac suggests that Hélie died childless and therefore that she was her husband’s second wife.  m [as his second wife,] RAYMOND [III] Vicomte de Turenne, son of RAYMOND [II] Vicomte de Turenne & his wife Hélie de Castelnau (-[1219/May 1221]).  Seigneur de Sévérac, de iure uxoris.  Maybe he lost Sévérac after the death of his wife, which would have removed the basis for his succession to the seigneurie.] 

b)         IRDOINE de Sévérac ([1189/90]-after 1 Nov 1220).  "Guillelms coms de Rodes" and "R…duc de Narbona, comte de Tolosa, marquis de Proensa, fil de Regina Costanssa" agreed peace by charter dated Mar 1208 which names "Yrdoina filia que fu de Beatrig de Camillag, moler del conte de Rodes"[1428].  Her father’s name is confirmed by his 10 Jun 1209 charter granting property to her second husband.  Dame de Sévérac: “Irdoina domina Severiaci...majorem XXV annis...et...Deodatus de Castrolucio maritus eius secundario” declared having sold “castrum seu villam de Corrozargas” [Coussergues] to “domino Petro Ruthen. episcopo” and having bought “hereditatem Deodati de Severiaco et Ugonis fratris eius” from “Dozone de Roca” by charter dated 22 Mar 1215[1429]The testament of Irdoine, dated 1 Nov 1220, bequeathed property to her daughters “Guize...Béatrix”, specified that “Guizo mo fill” would inherit “el castel de Seveirac” and “Dausde mo fill...el castel de Canillac...que fo da ma maire”, and named “Dausde de Castlus so marit et lur paire[1430]Sévérac was inherited by her son by her second marriage, as confirmed by the 13 May 1244 charter quoted below.  m firstly GUILLAUME Comte de Rodez, son of HUGUES [II] Comte de Rodez & his wife Agnes --- (-[1208]).  m secondly ([1208/10 Jun 1209]) DEODAT Seigneur de Caylus, son of ---.  [Seigneur de Sévérac, de iure uxoris]

 

 

Two brothers, parents not identified.  Presumably they were descended from a junior line of the Sévérac family.  Another possibility is that they were knights living at the castle, the name of which they adopted as their family name, who were unrelated to the seigneurial family. 

 

1.         DEODAT de Sévérac .  “Irdoina domina Severiaci...majorem XXV annis...et...Deodatus de Castrolucio maritus eius secundario” declared having sold “castrum seu villam de Corrozargas” [Coussergues] to “domino Petro Ruthen. episcopo” and having bought “hereditatem Deodati de Severiaco et Ugonis fratris eius” from “Dozone de Roca” by charter dated 22 Mar 1215[1431]

2.         HUGUES de Sévérac .  “Irdoina domina Severiaci...majorem XXV annis...et...Deodatus de Castrolucio maritus eius secundario” declared having sold “castrum seu villam de Corrozargas” [Coussergues] to “domino Petro Ruthen. episcopo” and having bought “hereditatem Deodati de Severiaco et Ugonis fratris eius” from “Dozone de Roca” by charter dated 22 Mar 1215[1432]same person as...?  HUGUES de Sévérac (-after 1188).  Hugues de Sévérac donated a quarter of the village of “Fréjemaïous” to Bonnecombe by charter dated 1173, and “ce qu’il possédait à Carbasse, à Caucil et...toutes ses propriétés depuis Trémouilles jusqu’à l’abbaye” by charter dated 1188[1433]

 

 

The Documens Historiques du Rouergue sets out the origins and some earlier members of the Caylus family (but not the parentage of Déodat who is shown below), later seigneurs de Caylus from the mid-13th century until the early 15th century, and later junior branches of the family (seigneurs de Castelnau-de-Brétenoux, de Clermont-Lodève, de Blanc, de Colombières et de Rouairoux)[1434].  None of this information has been verified. 

 

DEODAT de Caylus, son of --- (-after 1 Nov 1220, maybe after 1238).  [Seigneur de Sévérac, de iure uxoris: Simon de Montfort captured Sévérac in 1215 and placed it under the guardianship of the bishop of Rodez and Pierre Bermond Seigneur de Sauve, before returning it the seigneur de Sévérac from whom his brother Guy de Montfort had confiscated it[1435].  It is assumed that this episode refers to Déodat de Caylus who thereby became seigneur de Sévérac.  No other document has been found which specifies that he held the seigneurie de Sévérac, but his doing so would be normal as his wife is described in the 22 Mar 1215 charter quoted below as Dame de Sévérac.]  Gaujal suggests that he was the same person as Déodat de Caylus whom Raymond VII Comte de Toulouse deprived of his lands in 1238[1436]

m ([1208/10 Jun 1209]) as her second husband, IRDOINE de Sévérac, widow of GUILLAUME Comte de Rodez, daughter of GUY [III] Seigneur de Sévérac & his wife Beatrix de Canilhac ([1189/90]-after 1 Nov 1220)Dame de Sévérac: Irdoina domina Severiaci...majorem XXV annis...et...Deodatus de Castrolucio maritus eius secundario” declared having sold “castrum seu villam de Corrozargas” [Coussergues] to “domino Petro Ruthen. episcopo” and having bought “hereditatem Deodati de Severiaco et Ugonis fratris eius” from “Dozone de Roca” by charter dated 22 Mar 1215[1437]The testament of Irdoine, dated 1 Nov 1220, bequeathed property to her daughters “Guize...Béatrix”, specified that “Guizo mo fill” would inherit “el castel de Seveirac” and “Dausde mo fill...el castel de Canillac...que fo da ma maire”, and named “Dausde de Castlus so marit et lur paire[1438]Sévérac was inherited by her son by her second marriage, as confirmed by the 13 May 1244 charter quoted below. 

Déodat & his wife had four children: 

1.         GUY [V] de Sévérac (-after 6 Jul 1270).  The testament of Irdoine, dated 1 Nov 1220, specified that “Guizo mo fill” would inherit “el castel de Seveirac” and “Dausde mo fill...el castel de Canillac...que fo da ma maire[1439]Seigneur de Sévérac.  "Guido de Severiaco filius domini de Caslaron et comitisse quondam Ruthene" swore homage to the bishop of Mende by charter dated 13 May 1244[1440].  Gaujal states that the original document should read “Caslucio” rather than “Caslaron[1441].  "Gui de Sévérac" acknowledged holding the castles of Sévérac and la Panouse from Raymond VII Comte de Toulouse by charter dated 24 Apr 1246[1442].  “Gui sire de Sévérac” complained about the excesses of Vivian Bishop of Rodez, including the imprisonment of “Bernard d’Arpajon”, to Alphonse Comte de Poitou et de Toulouse .  in a letter dated 1260[1443]The Documens Historiques du Rouergue record that Guy [V] left for Jerusalem in the second half of 1270 and died during the voyage[1444].  The 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above) records that “Guido miles...baronie de Severaco dominis” died “transmare”, leaving “Guidone filio suo primogenito” as his heir[1445]m (contract 1232) RICHARDE de Panat, daughter of HECTOR de Panat & his wife Guise de Gairajac.  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue record their marriage contract dated 1232[1446].  The marriage date of the couple’s son Guy [VI] suggests that this contract may have represented a betrothal when the parties were still children.  Guy [V] & his wife had seven children: 

a)         GUY [VI] de Sévérac (-after 8 Jun 1293).  The 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above) names “Guido Hector Arziald[us] Deodatus Petrus Guido et Guicharda” as the seven children of “Guido miles...baronie de Severaco dominis...et eius uxore...Ricarda[1447]Seigneur de SévéracThe testament of Hector de Sévérac, dated 1272 before leaving for Palestine, appointed Gui son frère” as his heir, with “Pierre d’Ayssènes et Alzias moine” as his substitutes[1448].

b)         HECTOR de Sévérac (-after 1272).  The 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above) names “Guido Hector Arziald[us] Deodatus Petrus Guido et Guicharda” as the seven children of “Guido miles...baronie de Severaco dominis...et eius uxore...Ricarda[1449]Priest.  The testament of Hector de Sévérac, dated 1272 before leaving for Palestine, appointed Gui son frère” as his heir, with “Pierre d’Ayssènes et Alzias moine” as his substitutes[1450]

c)         ALZIAS de Sévérac .  The 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above) names “Guido Hector Arziald[us] Deodatus Petrus Guido et Guicharda” as the seven children of “Guido miles...baronie de Severaco dominis...et eius uxore...Ricarda[1451]Monk.  The testament of Hector de Sévérac, dated 1272 before leaving for Palestine, appointed Gui son frère” as his heir, with “Pierre d’Ayssènes et Alzias moine” as his substitutes[1452]

d)         DEODAT de Sévérac (-[1260/72]).  The 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above) names “Guido Hector Arziald[us] Deodatus Petrus Guido et Guicharda” as the seven children of “Guido miles...baronie de Severaco dominis...et eius uxore...Ricarda[1453]Déodat de Sévérac sold his rights in le château de Verrières” to “Guy son frère aîné” by charter dated 1260[1454].  His absence from the 1272 testament of his brother Hector suggests that he had died before that date. 

e)         PIERRE de Sévérac (-after 1272).  The 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above) names “Guido Hector Arziald[us] Deodatus Petrus Guido et Guicharda” as the seven children of “Guido miles...baronie de Severaco dominis...et eius uxore...Ricarda[1455]The testament of Hector de Sévérac, dated 1272 before leaving for Palestine, appointed Gui son frère” as his heir, with “Pierre d’Ayssènes et Alzias moine” as his substitutes[1456]

g)         GUICHARDE de SévéracThe 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above) names “Guido Hector Arziald[us] Deodatus Petrus Guido et Guicharda” as the seven children of “Guido miles...baronie de Severaco dominis...et eius uxore...Ricarda[1458]

2.         DEODAT de Sévérac (-26 Jun [1270]).  The testament of Irdoine, dated 1 Nov 1220, specified that “Guizo mo fill” would inherit “el castel de Seveirac” and “Dausde mo fill...el castel de Canillac...que fo da ma maire[1459].  Seigneur de Canilhac.  D. de Canillac” confirmed the donations made to the monks of Aubrac by “Béatrix son ayeule et la comtesse sa mère...[son père] D. de Castlucio” by charter dated 1245[1460].  “Deodati de Canillac fratris de Guidonis de Sevrac” is named in a charter dated 1264[1461]

4.         BEATRIX de Sévérac .  The testament of Irdoine, dated 1 Nov 1220, bequeathed property to her daughters “Guize...Béatrix[1463]

 

 

GUY [VI] de Sévérac, son of GUY [V] Seigneur de Séverac & his wife Richarde de Panat (-after 8 Jun 1293).  The 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above) names “Guido Hector Arziald[us] Deodatus Petrus Guido et Guicharda” as the seven children of “Guido miles...baronie de Severaco dominis...et eius uxore...Ricarda[1464]Seigneur de SévéracThe testament of Hector de Sévérac, dated 1272 before leaving for Palestine, appointed Gui son frère” as his heir, with “Pierre d’Ayssènes et Alzias moine” as his substitutes[1465].  The testament of Guy de Sévérac, dated 1282, required Gui son fils et héritier” to send a horse to the holy sites in his name[1466]

m ([1273]) GALHARDE de Bruniquel, daughter of BERTRAND [II] Vicomte de Bruniquel & his wife Hélène Barasc Dame de Reyrevignes et de ½ Assier (-after 1296).  “Gaillarda de Bruniquel” is named as wife of “Guidone secundo” in the 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above)[1467]Her mother granted half her interest in Reyrevignes and Assier, reserving herself the usufruct, to her daughter Galharde on her marriage to Guy Seigneur de Séverac by charter dated 1273, confirmed by her testament dated 1296[1468].  Her testament was dated 1296[1469].

Guy [VI] & his wife had seven children: 

1.         GUY [VII] de Sévérac (-1319).  The 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above) names “Guido Deodatus Arzialdus Raimu[n]dus Bertre[n]dus Richarda et Helena” as the seven children of “Guidone secundo et Gaillarda de Bruniquel eius uxore[1470]The testament of Guy de Sévérac, dated 1282, required Gui son fils et héritier” to send a horse to the holy sites in his name[1471]Seigneur de SévéracThe Documens Historiques du Rouergue record the death of Guy [VII] in 1319, appointing the eldest child of his brother Déodat as his heir, without citing the source on which this information is based[1472]m ([8 Jun] 1293) BEATRIX de Béziers, daughter of ROGER de Béziers & his wife ---.  The 14 Aug 1508 judgment (see above) records the 1293 marriage of “Guido dominus de Severaco...Guidonis eius filiis” and “Beatrice de Biterris...filia quondam Rogeris de Biterris”, at the same time as Guy [VII]’s emancipation[1473].  No earlier source has been found which confirms these details.  While the 1508 judgment can hardly be considered a primary source respecting events which occurred more than 200 years earlier, the text is consistent with earlier sources which relate to other family details which are specified.  As the identity of Guy [VII]’s wife had no significance in the lawsuit, either in proving a descent or corroborating the case of either party, there appears no reason to doubt the details about her identity which were presumably derived from an earlier document which is no longer available.  Guy [VII] & his wife had three children: 

a)         --- de Sévérac .  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue record that Guy [VII]’s son died poisoned, without citing the source on which this information is based[1474].  

b)         RICHARDE de Sévérac (-1326).  Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage to “Pierre des Cases[1475].  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue record her parentage, marriage and date of death, adding that she and her sister claimed their father’s succession, a settlement being finally reached 5 May 1352, without citing the source on which this information is based[1476].  The litigation is referred to in two documents: a writ dated 1337 records a procedural step in a claim brought by “Pierre de Cazes chevalier et son fils” against “Jeanne de Narbonne veuve de Déodat de Séverac et Guy de Séverac leur fils; le seigneur d’Apcher, Guillaume d’Estaing chevalier, Alize de Séverac, le prieur d’Oralguet, les seigneurs de Canilhac et de Caylus, Raymond de Gozon chevalier, Pierre de Narbonne, l’abbé de Saint-Paul de Narbonne, Amaury vicomte de Narbonne, et Guilhem de Narbonne, parents de Guy[1477].  A writ dated 1342 records another procedural step in the same claim relating to the barony of Séverac brought by “Pierre de Cazes chevalier et Pierre son fils damoiseau” against “Jeanne de Narbonne veuve de Déodat de Séverac, tutrice de ses trois enfants mineurs; Guy de Séverac chevalier son fils majeur et plusieurs parents desdits enfants, à savoir: le roi de Majorque, le comte de Foix, Bertrand de l’Isle chevalier, Alzie de Séverac, prieur de Coulommiers en Brie, Bégon et Hugues de la Barrière, Guillaume et Guillaume d’Estaing et Garin de Castelnau, chevaliers, Pierre évêque élu d’Urgel, Brémond de Sommières, Aymeri et Amaury de Narbonne chevaliers, me Guilhem de Capendu, Amaury de Voisins chevalier, et Aymeri Le Vicomte[1478]m PIERRE de Cases, son of ---.

Chapter 4.    COMTES d'UZES

 

 

A.      COMTES et VICOMTES d'UZES

 

 

The county of Uzès lay north of Nîmes along the west bank of the river Rhône.  It is the county about which the least information has been found in the whole group of counties within the sphere of influence of the comtes de Toulouse.  The only references found to early counts in Uzès are shown below.  A continuous line of bishops of Uzès can be traced from the 4th century, and the obvious explanation for the failure of the line of counts is that the bishops acquired temporal power in the county.  The first reference to a seigneur d’Uzès which has been found is dated to 1088 (see Part B below).  It has not yet been ascertained whether the Seigneurs d’Uzès were vassals of the bishops or of the comtes de Toulouse. 

 

 

1.         AMAURY (-after [951/52]).  Comte [d’Uzès].  "Lucerius sacerdos" donated property "in pago Uzetico" to Cluny, for the souls of "genitoris mei Castellani et genetricis meæ Marthæ" and for the salvation of "senioris mei domni Amalrici comitis, dominæ meæ Ermengardis comitissæ et senioris mei Bermondi comitis et Rotberti consobrini mei", by charter dated to [951/52], signed by "Bermundi comitis, Ructaldi vicecomitis…"[1554]m ERMENGARDE, daughter of --- (-after [951/52]).  "Lucerius sacerdos" donated property "in pago Uzetico" to Cluny, for the souls of "genitoris mei Castellani et genetricis meæ Marthæ" and for the salvation of "senioris mei domni Amalrici comitis, dominæ meæ Ermengardis comitissæ et senioris mei Bermondi comitis et Rotberti consobrini mei", by charter dated to [951/52][1555]

 

2.         BERMOND (-after [951/52]).  Comte [d’Uzès].  "Lucerius sacerdos" donated property "in pago Uzetico" to Cluny, for the souls of "genitoris mei Castellani et genetricis meæ Marthæ" and for the salvation of "senioris mei domni Amalrici comitis, dominæ meæ Ermengardis comitissæ et senioris mei Bermondi comitis et Rotberti consobrini mei", by charter dated to [951/52][1556].  His name suggests a connection with the later family of Seigneurs d’Anduze. 

 

3.         RUCTALD (-after [951/52]).  Vicomte [d’Uzès].  "Lucerius sacerdos" donated property "in pago Uzetico" to Cluny, for the souls of "genitoris mei Castellani et genetricis meæ Marthæ" and for the salvation of "senioris mei domni Amalrici comitis, dominæ meæ Ermengardis comitissæ et senioris mei Bermondi comitis et Rotberti consobrini mei", by charter dated to [951/52], signed by "Bermundi comitis, Ructaldi vicecomitis…"[1557]

D.      SEIGNEURS d'ANDUZE

 

 

Anduze is situated about 10 kilometres south-west of Alès, and about 30 kilometres west of Uzès.  It is today located in the French département of Gard, arrondissement Alès, canton Alès-1.  Reconstructing the family of the seigneurs d’Anduze is challenging, due both to the paucity of surviving primary sources and the repeated use of the names Bernard and Bermond in the family.  One possible reconstruction is shown below but the uncertainty is such that it should not be regarded as the definitive answer.  The early seigneurs d’Anduze were related to the seigneurs de Sauve, shown in a separate section of the present document. 

 

 

BERNARD [I] [de Sauve] [d’Anduze], son of BERMOND de Sauve & his wife Eustorgie --- (-[19 Jul 1077/1083]).  "Petrus Bermundi filius Austorge…cum uxore mea Helisabeth" confirmed donations to Gellone by "Bernardus avus meus marchio et Bermundus pater meus" to Gellone by charter dated 18 Jul 1077, subscribed by "Bernardi fratri eius…"[1621]Seigneur d’Anduze: "Bernardus […castri Andusanici marchio] filius Bermundi et Austorge et uxor mea Adalais et filius meus Raymundus" donated “partem ecclesiæ beati...Petri...sub castro...Mairoiss” to Gellone by charter dated 19 Jul 1077, signed by "Petri-Bermundi fratris sui, Petri-Almeradi sui consanguinei"[1622].  He died before the 1083 charter of his son Raymond (see below). 

m ADELAIS de Mandagout, daughter of ---.  "Bernardus […castri Andusanici marchio] filius Bermundi et Austorge et uxor mea Adalais et filius meus Raymundus" donated “partem ecclesiæ beati...Petri...sub castro...Mairoiss” to Gellone by charter dated 19 Jul 1077[1623].  Her family origin is noted in the 1083 charter of her son Raymond (see below). 

Bernard [I] & his wife had one child: 

1.         RAYMOND  [de Sauve] [de Mandagout] (-before 1115).  "Bernardus […castri Andusanici marchio] filius Bermundi et Austorge et uxor mea Adalais et filius meus Raymundus" donated “partem ecclesiæ beati...Petri...sub castro...Mairoiss” to Gellone by charter dated 19 Jul 1077[1624].  No document has been identified which names Raymond as seigneur d’Anduze.  The reasons for his failure to inherit Anduze are unclear, unless it passed to an older brother.  As noted below, this older brother could have been the husband of Ermengarde (veuve Montpellier) who is named below.  If that is correct, maybe the brother was born from an earlier marriage of their father, which would explain why Mandagout passed to Raymond.  "Raimundus filius Adalaiz de Mandaghot" donated "partem meam ecclesie Sancti Petri de castro...Mairois" to Gellone by charter dated 1083[1625].  Seigneur de Mandagout: "Raimundus de Mandagot filius Adalaiz et uxor mea Bertais et filii mei Petrus et Arnaldus" donated "alodium...in terminio de villa Calm Riu" to Gellone by charter dated to [1077/99][1626].  "Raimundus de castro Mandagotis et uxor mea Bertaiz" donated "mansum...Silvenciacus" to Gellone by charter dated to [1098/1119][1627]m BERTAIS, daughter of --- (-after 1115).  "Raimundus de Mandagot filius Adalaiz et uxor mea Bertais et filii mei Petrus et Arnaldus" donated "alodium...in terminio de villa Calm Riu" to Gellone by charter dated to [1077/99][1628].  "Raimundus de castro Mandagotis et uxor mea Bertaiz" donated "mansum...Silvenciacus" to Gellone by charter dated to [1098/1119][1629].  "Petrus Utbertus et mater mea Bertais et uxor mea Uga et filius meus Raimundus" donated "decimum...in dominio, in parrochia Sancti Petri de Mairois..." to Gellone by charter dated 1115[1630].  Raymond & his wife had two children: 

a)         PIERRE .  "Raimundus de Mandagot filius Adalaiz et uxor mea Bertais et filii mei Petrus et Arnaldus" donated "alodium...in terminio de villa Calm Riu" to Gellone by charter dated to [1077/99][1631].  "Petrus Utbertus et mater mea Bertais et uxor mea Uga et filius meus Raimundus" donated "decimum...in dominio, in parrochia Sancti Petri de Mairois..." to Gellone by charter dated 1115[1632]m HUGUETTE, daughter of ---.  "Petrus Utbertus et mater mea Bertais et uxor mea Uga et filius meus Raimundus" donated "decimum...in dominio, in parrochia Sancti Petri de Mairois..." to Gellone by charter dated 1115[1633].  Pierre & his wife had one child: 

i)          RAYMOND .  "Petrus Utbertus et mater mea Bertais et uxor mea Uga et filius meus Raimundus" donated "decimum...in dominio, in parrochia Sancti Petri de Mairois..." to Gellone by charter dated 1115[1634]

b)         ARNAUD .  "Raimundus de Mandagot filius Adalaiz et uxor mea Bertais et filii mei Petrus et Arnaldus" donated "alodium...in terminio de villa Calm Riu" to Gellone by charter dated to [1077/99][1635]

 

 

The husband of Ermengarde has not been identified with certainty, but the reference to “Anduze” suggests that he was related in some way to the earlier Sauve/Anduze families.  Ludovic Noirie suggests that he was the son of Pierre Bermond [I] de Sauve[1636].  Another possibility is that he was the possible older brother of Raymond [de Sauve] [de Mandagout] who is noted above, maybe born from an earlier marriage of their father which would explain why Mandagout passed to Raymond.  Either case appears feasible from a chronological point of view.  Ludovic Noirie suggests that Ermengarde’s husband was named “Bérenger”, basing this hypothesis on two charters from Gellone[1637]:

(1) "Raimundus Berengarii et fratres mei Petrus Berengarii et Guilelmus Berengarii et Bernardus Berengarii et Bertrandu" donated serfs and property "in episcopatu Nemausense in parrochia Aulatis in vicaria Exunatis" to Gellone by charter dated to [1077/99][1638].  

(2) "Hermengardis et infantes mei Petrus Berengarii et Bernardus et Bertrandus ac Ugo et Gaucelmus et Geraldus" donated "alode nostro...in episcopatu Nemausensi...medietatem...mansi...Retlossat" to Gellone, for the soul of “fratris nostri Raimundi Berengarii qui interfectus gladio fuit, non pugnando neque aliquid mali faciendo” and for “fratre alio qui captus tenetur Guilelmo...Berengario”, by charter dated 1100[1639]

The “parrochia Aulatis” [Aulas] is adjacent to Le Vigan, in the area between the territories of the Roquefeuil (to the west) and Anduze (to the east) families[1640].  “Retlossat” has not been identified. 

These two documents suggest three interconnected sub-families:

(a) Raymond Bérenger (died before 1100), born from an earlier marriage of Bérenger.  He is described in charter (2) as brother of Ermengarde’s children but not as her son, although it should be noted that Guillaume is also described as such in charter (2) while charter (1) confirms that he was indeed the son of Ermengarde.  If Ermengarde, wife of Bérenger, was the widow of Bernard Guillaume [IV] Seigneur de Montpellier, her second marriage after [1085] also suggests that Raymond Bérenger was not her son, as he would have been young to act in his own capacity as the main donor in charter (1). 

(b) Four brothers Pierre Bérenger, Guillaume Bérenger (captive in 1100), Bernard Bérenger and Bertrand, born from a supposed second marriage of Bérenger with Ermengarde. 

(c) Three brothers Hugues, Gaucelm and Géraud, joined to their other brothers by the conjunction “ac” instead of “et” in charter (2) suggesting some family differentiation.  Maybe they were born from a third marriage of Ermengarde. 

One difficulty with this otherwise rather appealing hypothesis is the relative absence of the name Bérenger in later generations of the Anduze family. 

 

1.         --- [d’Anduze] .  The possible identity of Ermengarde’s husband is discussed above.  No document has been identified in which he is named seigneur d’Anduze although, from the sources quoted below, Anduze appears to have been inherited by his son.  This person must have enjoyed some local status to have married the widow of the seigneur de Montpellier.  m (after [1085]) as her second husband, ERMENGARDE, widow of BERNARD GUILLAUME [IV] Seigneur de Montpellier, daughter of --- (-[1109]).  Her son by her first marriage is named "Guillelmus filius Ermengardæ dominus Montispessulani" in a charter dated 1093[1641].  The primary source which confirms her family origin has not been identified.   Ermengarde is often stated to be the daughter of Raymond [I] Comte de Melgueil & his wife Beatrix [de Poitou].  The documentation on which this is based has not been identified and it seems unlikely to be correct considering that her son Guillaume [V] Seigneur de Montpellier would have been betrothed to his first cousin for which a Papal dispensation would be unlikely to be granted at that time.  Her second marriage is confirmed by the testament dated 1114 made “pergens contra paganos ad expugnandam Majoricam insulam”, by her son “Guillelmus Montipessulani” which bequeathed “castellum d’Omelas” to “Bernardo de Andusia fratri meo et infantibus suis[1642]Europäische Stammtafeln interprets this strangely as meaning that Bernard was the son of Bernard Guillaume [IV][1643].  --- & his wife had one child: 

a)         BERNARD [II] d’Anduze ([after 1086]-after 23 Feb [1131]).  His parentage is indicated by the testament dated 1114 made “pergens contra paganos ad expugnandam Majoricam insulam” by her son “Guillelmus Montipessulani” [Guillaume [V] Seigneur de Montpellier] which bequeathed “castellum d’Omelas” to “Bernardo de Andusia fratri meo et infantibus suis[1644].  Bernard [II] d’Anduze never inherited Omelas as, under his later testament dated 1121, Guillaume [V] Seigneur de Montpellier bequeathed the castle to his younger son[1645]"Bernardus de Andusia" donated "mansum...in Sirgaz" to Gellone, for his own soul and those of his [unnamed] parents, by charter dated to [1098/1119][1646].  Co-seigneur d’Alès: Paulet records that Bernard d’Anduze shared the “seigneurie d’Alest” with Raymond Pelet in 1118[1647].  The document which confirms this statement has not been identified, but the suggestion is consistent with later references to the seigneurie d’Alès.  "...Bernardo de Andusia" witnessed the charter dated 1119 which records the dispute after "Petrus Berengarii de castro...Foderia" confirmed the donation of “ecclesiam sancti Martini de Caux” made by “Alcherius avunculus eius” to Gellone, challenged by “Bernardus Raymundi de Castro-novo[1648].  "Bernardus de Andusia, Guillelmus de Omellacio, Gauscelmus de Clareto...Berengarius de Salve" witnessed the charter dated to [1122] under which "Bernard coms de Melgor filz de Maria" swore allegiance to Guillaume [VI] Seigneur de Montpellier[1649].  "Decanus de Poschariis, Bernardus de Andusia...Gaucelmus de Clareto..." witnessed the charter dated 1125 which records the peace agreement between "Bernardum comitem Melguriensem" and Guillaume [VI] Seigneur de Montpellier[1650].  "Guillermi de Montepessulano, Bernardi de Andusa, Decani, comitis de Foissio..." witnessed the charter dated 23 Feb 1130 (O.S.?) which records an agreement between "Rogerius de Biterri et frater suus Raimundus Trencavelli" concerning their father’s inheritance[1651].  ["Adalais filia Ermesendis de Maroiol que fui uxor Petri Rostagni de Salve et…" sold property "in tota parrochia Sancti Marcelli de Avellano" to "altari Sancti Salvatoris Gellonensis", in the presence of "Bernardi de Andusia et Berengerii de Salve et Bermundi et Raimundi de Salve et Guillelmi fratris eius…", by charter dated 1137[1652].  This document could refer to Bernard [II] or to Bernard [III].]  m ---.  No document has been identified which names Bernard [II]’s wife.  Bernard [II] & his wife had [three or more] children: 

i)          --- (before 1114-).  The existence of children is indicated by the testament of [Bernard [II]’s half-brother] Guillaume [V] Seigneur de Montpellier dated 1114 which bequeathed “castellum d’Omelas” to “Bernardo de Andusia fratri meo et infantibus suis[1653]

ii)         [EUSTORGIE d'Anduze ([1115/28?]-after 1174)The Chronicon Gaufredi Vosiensis names "filia Bernardi de Anduza de Aleth…Eustorgia" as wife of "Boso"[1654].  Her date of birth is estimated from her having given birth to her son in [Oct] 1143, which if correct indicates that from a chronological point of view Eustorgie could have been the daughter of Bernard [II].  The reference to “Aleth” (=Alès) also suggests that Eustorgie was the daughter of Bernard [II] d’Anduze co-Seigneur d’Alès.  "Eustorgia vicecomitissa de Torenna, quæ conjux fuit Bosonis vicecomitis de Torenna", who was killed, donated "terram et boscum de Masairolas" to Uzerche, for the soul of her husband, by charter dated 1174[1655]m BOSON Vicomte de Turenne, son of RAYMOND [I] Vicomte de Turenne & his wife Mathilde du Perche (-killed in battle Saint-Paul la Roche 19 Jun 1143).] 

 

 

Two brothers, whose parentage has not been ascertained.  From a chronological point of view, Bertrand could have been the brother of Bernard [II] d’Anduze (see above).  This suggestion is also consistent with the hypothesis concerning the identity of Bernard [II]’s father as “Bérenger”, identified from the patronym of four of the brothers named in the [1077/99] Gellone charter quoted above, who is recorded with a younger son named Bertrand.  If this affiliation is correct, Bertrand’s nephew Raymond could have been the son of Bernard [II]. 

 

1.         BERTRAND [d’Anduze] .  "Raimundus de Andusa" donated property "mansum de Bogeta...eo quod Bertrandus avunculus meus dedit", with the consent of "uxoris mee Helisabet", by charter dated 1133, in the presence of "Bermundi de Salve..."[1656]

2.         son .  m ---.  One child: 

a)         RAYMOND d’Anduze (-after 1135).  "Raimundus de Andusa" donated property "mansum de Bogeta...eo quod Bertrandus avunculus meus dedit", with the consent of "uxoris mee Helisabet", by charter dated 1133, in the presence of "Bermundi de Salve..."[1657].  "...Raimundus de Andusia...Bertrandus de Salve..." witnessed the charter dated 1135 under which "Berengarius Raimundi filius Dulcie comes Melgoriensis et marcho Provincie et...Beatrix filio Guillelme" swore allegiance to Guillaume [VI] Seigneur de Montpellier[1658]m (before 1133) ELISABETH, daughter of ---.  "Raimundus de Andusa" donated property "mansum de Bogeta", with the consent of "uxoris mee Helisabet", by charter dated 1133[1659]

 

 

The primary source which confirms the name of the father of Bernard d’Anduze, husband of Ermengarde Vicomtesse de Narbonne, has not been identified.  From a chronological point of view, Bernard could have been born around the same time as Bernard [III] “senior/major” who is named below.  However, it is unlikely that they were the same person: as noted below, Bernard’s absence from his wife’s charters suggests that he died before 20 Jul 1151.  In addition, if they were the same individual, "Bernardus de Andusia major..." (who witnessed an 1156 charter[1660]) would likely have been Bernard [IV] who could only have been aged in his twenties at the time, which seems too young to justify the epithet “major”.  As an alternative theory, Bernard’s absence from his wife’s charters could be explained if the couple separated soon after their marriage, which would of course reopen the possibility of his co-identity with Bernard [III].  It should also be borne in mind that Bernard’s marriage to Ermengarde de Narbonne could have been his second marriage.  In that case, his estimated birth date could have been much earlier than suggested below.  In addition, he could have left children by his earlier wife who could be identified with other unaffiliated members of the Anduze family.  This already complicated situation is complicated even further by Gallia Christiana who records that, according to Baluze (no source cited), Pierre d’Anduze Archbishop of Narbonne (see below) was “Bernardi de Andusia senioris ex Sibilla filium[1661].  If that is correct, the chronology suggests that “Bernardi de Andusia senioris”, husband of Sibylle, was Bernard [II] d’Anduze (see above) whose wife’s name has not been found in any of the primary sources so far consulted. 

 

1.         --- d’Anduzem SIBYLLE, daughter of ---.  She is named in her son’s undated charter quoted below.  [Two children]: 

a)         BERNARD d’Anduze ([1110/15]-[before 20 Jul 1151]).  “Bernard de la porte Royalle fils de Rixende” swore allegiance to “Bernard d’Anduze fils de Sybille ny Hermengarde ta femme fille de Monseigneur Aimery” by undated charter[1662].  It is suggested that Bernard died before 20 Jul 1151 as he is not named in his wife’s charter of that date ("Hermengardis vicecomitissæ Narbonæ…filia Hermengardis" reached agreement with "Raimundo Trencavello…filius Cæciliæ" by charter dated 20 Jul 1151[1663]) or in any of her later charters.  Bernard’s marriage to Ermengarde must have been childless as she was succeeded in Narbonne by her sister’s son.  This does not exclude Bernard leaving descendants by an otherwise unrecorded earlier marriage.  m (after 1142) ERMENGARDE Vicomtesse de Narbonne, daughter of AIMERY [II] Vicomte de Narbonne & his first wife Ermengarde --- (-Perpignan 14 Oct 1197).  Her marriage is confirmed by the following document: “Bernard de la porte Royalle fils de Rixende” swore allegiance to “Bernard d’Anduze fils de Sybille ny Hermengarde ta femme fille de Monseigneur Aimery” by undated charter[1664].  The date of this marriage is approximate, ascertained only from the 1142 charter which records Ermengarde’s earlier betrothal to “Comte Alphonse” (the marriage contract between Hermengarde Vicomtesse de Narbonne” and “Alfonse Comte”, in which Ermengarde donated Narbonne to her husband, by charter dated 1142[1665]).  The marriage could have taken place much later than 1142. 

b)         [PIERRE d’Anduze (-[1155/56]).  The primary source which confirms the parentage of Pierre d’Anduze Archbishop of Narbonne has not been identified.  Gallia Christiana records that, according to Baluze, he was “Bernardi de Andusia senioris ex Sibilla filium” and notes that Pierre would therefore have been the brother of Bernard d’Anduze, husband of Ermengarde Vicomtesse de Narbonne (recorded as “fils de Sybille”, see above)[1666]Archbishop of Narbonne [1150].  Gallia Christiana notes that “Catellus” (no source citation) records that Archbishop Pierre died after “annis quinque et mensibus sex” as archbishop[1667].] 

 

 

The parentage of Bertrand d’Anduze shown below has not been ascertained.  Two possibilities present themselves: 

(1) From a chronological point of view, his estimated birth date range shown below suggests that he could have been the brother of Bernard [III] d’Anduze. 

(2) A second less likely possibility is that he was the same person as the unnamed possible son of Bernard [III] d’Anduze, who is shown below.  This would be possible only if Bertrand was born towards the end of the [1120/30] birth date range indicated for him, and the son(s) of Bernard [III] were born a few years earlier than suggested below.  In this second case, Bernard, younger son of Bertrand shown below, would have been the same person as Bernard [V] d’Anduze.  There are two difficulties: firstly, the list of properties, for which Bernard son of Bertrand swore homage in the 19 Mar 1174 (O.S.) charter quoted below, does not include Anduze itself, and secondly the May 1189 charter under which “Vierna de Agantico [Ganges] et G. Petri eius filius” and "R. de Rochafolio et fratri tuo B. de Andusia...domine Alazaiz filii" swore homage for "castrum de Breissacho" [Brissac], was witnessed by “...B. de Andusia...” who is probably identified as Bertrand [V]. 

Bertrand’s son Raymond held the castle of Meyrueis, which suggests a possible descent from the donor in the following charter in which “Maroiol” was presumably the same place: "Adalais filia Ermesendis de Maroiol que fui uxor Petri Rostagni de Salve et…" sold property "in tota parrochia Sancti Marcelli de Avellano" to "altari Sancti Salvatoris Gellonensis", in the presence of "Bernardi de Andusia et Berengerii de Salve et Bermundi et Raimundi de Salve et Guillelmi fratris eius…", by charter dated 1137[1668].  Could “Adelais”, recorded as one of the daughters of Pierre Rostain de Sauve (see the Seigneurs de Sauve section), have been the wife of Bertrand d’Anduze instead of “Adelais de Roquefeuil” who is named below? 

The charter dated May 1189, under which “Vierna de Agantico [Ganges] et G. Petri eius filius” and [Bertrand’s two sons] "R. de Rochafolio et fratri tuo B. de Andusia...domine Alazaiz filii", swore homage for "castrum de Breissacho" [Brissac] suggests a family relationship with the “Ganges” family, which has not been traced. 

 

1.         BERTRAND d'Anduze ([1120/30]-[Nov 1169/19 Mar 1175]).  Seigneur du Luc: "Bertrandus de Andusia" donated "medietatem decime de villa de Luc" to the prior of Interaquis by charter dated 1158[1669].  ["Bernardus de Andusia dominus baroniæ de Luco" donated property to the monastery of Sauve by charter dated 12 Dec 1161[1670].  The reference to “Le Luc” suggests that this charter refers to a member of Bertrand’s branch of the Anduze family: could “Bernardus” in this document be a transcription error for “Bertrandus”?]  "Guillelmus dominus Montispessulani" granted "filiam meam Guillelmam" to "Bertrando de Andusia et uxori tuæ Adalaiz" for four years from "hoc festo sanctæ Mariæ Februarii", after which she would be married to "filio vestro Raimundo de Rocafolio", by charter dated Nov 1109, but redated to Nov 1169[1671].  He presumably died before 19 Mar 1175, the date of his son Bernard’s charter.  m ([1145/55]) ADELAIS [de Roquefeuil], daughter of [GEOFFROY de Roquefeuil & his wife ---] (-after Nov 1169).  The Documens Historiques du Rouergue records her marriage, which it dates “1129”, and names her father “Geoffroy de Roquefeuil[1672].  Given the marriage contract of their son Raymond in Nov 1169, [1129] is very early for this marriage.  It is more likely that the couple married in [1145/55].  The primary source which confirms her family origin has not been identified.  As noted above, the transmission of Meyrueis to her son Raymond suggests that Adelais may have been the daughter of Pierre Rostain de Sauve, and not “de Roquefeuil”.  "Guillelmus dominus Montispessulani" granted "filiam meam Guillelmam" to "Bertrando de Andusia et uxori tuæ Adalaiz" for four years from "hoc festo sanctæ Mariæ Februarii", after which she would be married to "filio vestro Raimundo de Rocafolio", by charter dated Nov 1109, but redated to Nov 1169[1673].  Bertrand & his wife had [three] children: 

a)         RAYMOND d'Anduze (-after Oct 1200). Co-seigneur de Brissac: “Vierna de Agantico [Ganges] et G. Petri eius filius” and "R. de Rochafolio et fratri tuo B. de Andusia...domine Alazaiz filii" swore homage for "castrum de Breissacho" [Brissac] by charter dated May 1189[1674]Seigneur de Roquefeuil et de Meyrueis, Vicomte de Creissels, Comptor de Nant. 

-        SEIGNEURS  de ROQUEFEUIL

b)         BERNARD d’Anduze (-after 1189).  Seigneur de Montpezat, du Luc et de Saint-Bonnet: "Bernarz d’Andusa fil d’Azalaiz" swore homage to the bishop of Nîmes (“Aldelbert fil de Maria hispe de Nemse”) for the fiefs “lo castel de Monpesat el castel de Lecas el castel de San Bonet...el molin de Magal e totz los mases que eu ai ni om a de me en Salaves e end Andusenc”, by charter dated 19 Mar 1174 (O.S.)[1675]Bernard d’Anduze” and “Raymond de Roquefeuil” shared their castles, the latter acquiring rights to “[le] château de Meyrueis...en Agremont...en Esparron...en Autrive...en Plagnol...en Montesquieu”, by charter dated 2 Sep 1188[1676].  This document does not specify the castles acquired by Bernard.  Co-seigneur de Brissac: “Vierna de Agantico [Ganges] et G. Petri eius filius” and "R. de Rochafolio et fratri tuo B. de Andusia...domine Alazaiz filii" swore homage for "castrum de Breissacho" [Brissac] by charter dated May 1189, written “in potestatem G. de Sabrano et R. eius filii”, witnessed by “...B. de Andusia...B. de Salve...[1677].  The order of names in this last charter suggests that Bernard was younger than his brother Raymond.  If that is correct, it is unlikely that he was ancestor of the later senior line of the Anduze family.  It should be noted that Vierne, widow of Bernard d’Anduze (son of Bernard [V]) was recorded as dame du Luc (see below).  As Le Luc was one of the properties held by Bernard, could Vierne have been his descendant? 

c)         [ADALASIE .  “Pierre Bermond seigneur de Sauve” leased certain rights, including those which “Bertrand d’Anduze...Adalasie fille dudit Bertrand d’Anduze” had held, to “Arnaud de Roquefeuil noble écuyer du château de Roquefeuil”, by charter dated 1 Mar 1227[1678].  The document provides no indication of the time-frame during which Bertrand and his daughter Adalasie held the property in question.  If this was several decades earlier, Adalasie could have been the sister of Raymond d’Anduze, although this does not explain why she was singled out in the 1 Mar 1227 document which would normally indicate that she had been heiress of the property in question.  The nature of the relationship between the Sauve/Anduze families, suggested by this document, has not been ascertained.] 

 

 

The identity of the father of Bernard [III] d’Anduze has not been confirmed.  From a chronological point of view, he could have been Bernard [II] who is recorded with children as shown above.  The question is complicated by the uncertainty regarding the affiliation of the three sub-families shown above: Bertrand [d’Anduze] and his nephew Raymond d’Anduze, Bernard d’Anduze husband of Ermengarde de Narbonne, and Bertrand father of Raymond de Roquefeuil.  Clearly all these individuals were closely related, but the precise family relationships are impossible to ascertain with certainty given the lack of explicit primary sources. 

 

1.         --- d’Anduzem [MARIE], daughter of BEGON [I] Seigneur de Calmont [d’Olt] & his wife Florence ---.  The following document indicates the family origin of the mother of Bernard [III] d’Anduze: “Bernardus de Andusia” [identified as Bernard [IV], son of Bernard [III], see below], by charter dated 25 Oct 1184, confirmed that “Willelmus Caturcensis episcopus...patris mei avunculus” had donated “allodio et hereditate...Uge nepte sue et Deodato viro suo” to Bonneval[1679]Gallia Christiana records Guillaume (no family origin specified) as Bishop of Cahors between 1113 and 1144[1680].  Courcelles notes “Guillaume de Calmont”, son of Begon [I] Seigneur de Calmont & his wife Florence ---, as bishop of Cahors from [1113] to 1143, stating that he died before 1161 and adding that “Huguette de Calmont, femme de Déodat de la Coste” was the daughter of the bishop’s brother Geoffroy[1681].  The same data is recorded in the Documens Historiques du Rouergue, which names the bishop’s sister “Sibylle de Calmont, mariée avec Raymond II d’Anduze [not otherwise identified] et aïeule de Bernard d’Anduze” who issued the 25 Oct 1184 charter[1682], assuming presumably that her son was the husband of Ermengarde Vicomtesse de Narbonne (which is uncertain, as discussed further above).  The primary sources which corroborate this information have not been identified, although the chronology of the bishop’s life is consistent with his sister’s husband having been born [after 1086] which is consistent with her having been Bernard [III]’s mother.  One difficulty is the absence of the name Bégon among the later known members of the Anduze family.  There is some indication that Bernard [III]’s mother was called Marie: Paulet says that the person later called “Bernard l’ancien ou le Vieux, senior [major]” was recorded as “fils de Marie[1683].  He cites no source on which this information is based, but the formulation naming a person with reference to his mother was typical of charters in southern France at the time.  Paulet’s indication should not therefore be dismissed, although it can only be verified if the corresponding document emerges.  --- & his wife had one child: 

a)         BERNARD [III] d’Anduze “senior/major” ([1105/15]-[after 1174?])His parentage is confirmed by the charter dated 25 Oct 1184 under which Bernardus de Andusia” [identified as Bernard [IV], his son, see below], confirmed that “Willelmus Caturcensis episcopus...patris mei avunculus” had donated “allodio et hereditate...Uge nepte sue et Deodato viro suo” to Bonneval[1684]

-        see below

 

 

BERNARD [III] d’Anduze “senior/major”, son of --- d’Anduze & his wife [Marie] --- de Calmont ([1105/15]-[after 1174?])His parentage is confirmed by the charter dated 25 Oct 1184 under which Bernardus de Andusia” [identified as Bernard [IV], his son, see below], confirmed that “Willelmus Caturcensis episcopus...patris mei avunculus” had donated “allodio et hereditate...Uge nepte sue et Deodato viro suo” to Bonneval[1685].  ["Adalais filia Ermesendis de Maroiol que fui uxor Petri Rostagni de Salve et…" sold property "in tota parrochia Sancti Marcelli de Avellano" to "altari Sancti Salvatoris Gellonensis", in the presence of "Bernardi de Andusia et Berengerii de Salve et Bermundi et Raimundi de Salve et Guillelmi fratris eius…", by charter dated 1137[1686].  This document could refer to Bernard [II] or to Bernard [III].]  "Bernardus de Andusia major et filius eius Bernardus de Andusia..." witnessed the charter dated 1156 under which “Raimundus Trencavelli” donated property to Sauve[1687].  [Co-Seigneur d’Alès: the Histoire Générale de Languedoc records that “Bernard d’Anduze et Bertrand, fils de feu Bernard Pelet“ granted “le château de Peyrelade, dans le comté et l’évêché de Rodez“ to “Guy de Séverac” by charter dated 1174, in the presence of Raymond V Comte de Toulouse “Bermond d’Uzès, Guillaume de Sabran...[1688].  The linked names of the joint donors suggest that they acted in their capacity as co-Seigneurs d’Alès, which in turn suggests that “Bernard d’Anduze” belonged to the senior Anduze line.  "Bernardus de Andusia" granted privileges to "monasterio de Franquisvallibus" in his lands by charter dated [Jan] 1174 (O.S.?)[1689].  These 1174 documents provide no indication whether the donor in each case was Bernard [III], Bernard [IV] or Bernard [V].  As noted below, the omission of Bernard [V]’s father from the list of predecessors in the Mar 1209 charter relating to Fressac suggests that the succession either passed direct from the grandfather to his grandson or that the father was head of the family only briefly.  If that is correct, the likelihood is that the two documents dated 1174 refer to Bernard [III].  He would have been quite old at the time, but that may have provided a reason for the epithet “senior/major” attributed to him elsewhere.  The date of Bernard [III]’s death is not known. 

m ([1130]) ---.  No indication has been found of the identity of Bernard [III]’s wife. 

Bernard [III] & his wife had [two] children: 

1.         BERNARD [IV] d’Anduze ([1130/35]-after 25 Oct 1184).  "Bernardus de Andusia major et filius eius Bernardus de Andusia..." witnessed the charter dated 1156 under which “Raimundus Trencavelli” donated property to Sauve[1690].  "Bertrand d’Anduze" donated annual supplies of salt from “la ville de Sommières” to Bonnefoy by charter dated 1184[1691].  “Bernardus de Andusia”, by charter dated 25 Oct 1184, confirmed that “Willelmus Caturcensis episcopus...patris mei avunculus” had donated “allodio et hereditate...Uge nepte sue et Deodato viro suo” to Bonneval[1692].  The date of Bernard [IV]’s death is not known.  As noted below, the omission of Bernard [V]’s father from the list of predecessors in the Mar 1209 charter relating to Fressac suggests that the Anduze succession passed direct from the grandfather to his grandson, that the father was head of the family only briefly, or that the succession by-passed him.  If that is correct, it is likely that Bernard [IV] (whether he or his suggested unnamed brother was Bernard [V]’s father) died soon after 1184. 

2.         [--- d’Anduze ([1130/35]-[before May 1189]).  As noted below under Marquise, wife of Bernard [V] d’Anduze, the charter dated Mar 1209 (O.S.) relating to Fressac castle records that payments from the castle had, before the acquisition by Bernard [V] and Marquise, been made “in vita domini Bernardi Andusie [=Bernard [III]], avi predicti Bernardi, et in vita istius Bernardi [=Bernard [V]]”.  This document confirms that Bernard [V]’s father was the son of Bernard [III], but no primary source has been identified which names the father.  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc names “Bernard [VII] d’Anduze“ [=Bernard [V]] as “fils de Bernard [VI] [=Bernard [IV]] et d’Eustorge[1693].  Bernard [IV] was named 25 Oct 1184 as noted above, but no other document has been found which confirms that he was the father of Bernard [V].  Until other corroborative documentation comes to light, it is suggested that the statement in the Histoire Générale de Languedoc should be treated with caution.  The omission of Bernard [V]’s father from the list in the Mar 1209 charter suggests that either (1) the succession passed direct from the grandfather to his grandson, or (2) that the father was head of the family only briefly, or (3) that Bernard [V]’s father was never head of the family (which would be consistent with his being the unnamed younger brother of Bernard [IV]).  Another possibility is that this unnamed person was Bertrand, father of Raymond de Roquefeuil (see above), but only if (1) Bertrand was born towards the end of the [1120/30] birth date range indicated for him above and (2) the son(s) of Bernard [III] were born a few years earlier than suggested above.  If that possibility is correct, Bernard [V] would have been Bernard, younger son of Bertrand.  As noted above, there are two difficulties with this last suggestion: firstly, the list of properties, for which Bernard (son of Bertrand) swore homage in the 19 Mar 1174 charter quoted above, do not include Anduze itself[1694], and secondly the May 1189 charter under which “Vierna de Agantico [Ganges] et G. Petri eius filius” and "R. de Rochafolio et fratri tuo B. de Andusia...domine Alazaiz filii" swore homage for "castrum de Breissacho" [Brissac], was witnessed by “...B. de Andusia...” who is probably identified as Bertrand [V][1695].  All these indications considered together suggest that the most likely solution is that Bernard [V]’s father was an otherwise unrecorded younger brother of Bernard [IV].  m ---.  Just as many difficulties relate to the identification of Bernard [V]’s mother.  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc names “Bernard [VII] d’Anduze [=Bernard [V]]“ as “fils de Bernard [VI] [=Bernard [IV]] et d’Eustorge[1696].  No primary source has been found which verifies the name “Eustorge” and, until more documentation comes to light, it is suggested that it should be treated with caution.  It should also be noted that the name is not repeated among the known descendants of Bernard [V].  A further indication about the family origin of Bernard [V]’s mother is provided by the following document relating to the divorce of Marie de Montpellier and Pedro II King of Aragon: a charter dated 28 Jan 1211 (O.S.) records various testimonies, including “Dominus B. de Andusia” [Bernard [V]] who swore that “comes Raimundus de Bezanzo” [presumably Renaud I Comte de Bourgogne, see the document BURGUNDY KINGDOM - COUNTS of BURGUNDY] had “duas filias” [apparently incorrect], from one of whom issued (“exivit”) “mater huius B. de Andusia et avia Bernardi de Cumenge” that from “alia que vocabatur ducissa” [Mathilde wife of Guillaume [VII] Seigneur de Montpellier, who was daughter of Hugues II Duke of Burgundy, son of Sibylle de Bourgogne-Comté who was daughter of Guillaume I Comte de Bourgogne, son of Renaud I] issued (“exivit”) “pater Marie regine[1697].  Unfortunately, this does not bring us much further forward.  Looking at the grandmothers of Bernard [IV] Comte de Comminges, his maternal grandmother was either the unnamed mistress of Alphonse Jourdain Comte de Toulouse or his wife Faydive [d’Uzès] (depending whether Bernard [IV] de Comminges’s mother was illegitimate or not), while his paternal grandmother was Dias de Samatan (see the document TOULOUSE - COMMINGES, FOIX).  No relationship has been traced between any of these individuals and the Anduze family, or any descent of either the Anduze or Comminges families from the ducal or comital families of Burgundy.  The transmission of the name “Pierre Bermond” into the Anduze family with this couple’s son could be explained if his mother was related to the Sauve family, in which the name was common.  Such a relationship could also provide the explanation for Pierre Bermond d’Anduze (son of Bernard [V]) eventually inheriting the seigneurie de Sauve.  --- & his wife had three children: 

a)         BERNARD [V] d’Anduze ([1155/60]-[Feb 1214/13 Sep 1223])Seigneur d’Anduze.  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc states that “Bernard [VII] d’Anduze“ was “fils de Bernard [VI] et d’Eustorge”, adding that he confirmed in Sep 1203 the homage of “Bernard d’Anduze l’Ancien son aïeul“ to “Guy de Séverac” and the monastery of Sauves for “la viguerie de Portes[1698]

-        see below

b)         PIERRE BERMOND (-before Feb 1214).  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc records that “Bernard [VII] d’Anduze[=Bernard [V]]“ and “Pierre Bermond...[son] fils aîné” confirmed a donation to Bonneval, for the soul of “son frère Pierre Bermond“, by charter dated Feb 1214[1699]

c)         BERMOND d’Anduze (-11 Jun 1214).  His relationship with Bernard [V] is confirmed by the charter dated 8 Jan 1212 pertaining to the divorce of Pedro II King of Aragon and Marie de Montpellier which notes that information on the couple’s consanguinity was obtained from “...domino B. de Andusia et a domino episcopo Cyffricensi fratre eius, et a domina Marchisa eius uxore, et a domino R. episcopo Littevensi [Raymond Guillaume de Montpellier Bishop of Lodève], qui omnes sunt de eiusdem parentela[1700].  Bishop of Sisteron 1174.  Gallia Christiana Novissima records the election in 1174 of “Bermundus episcopus...de dominis Andusiæ, canonicus Ganagobensis [Maguelonne?]” as bishop of Sisteron[1701].  The necrology of Forcalquier records the death “III Id Jun” 1214 of “Bermundus Sistericensis episcopus[1702]

 

 

BERNARD [V] d’Anduze, son of --- d’Anduze & his wife --- ([1155/60]-[Feb 1214/13 Sep 1223]).  [The chronology suggests that the witness in the following charter was Bernard [V]: “Vierna de Agantico [Ganges] et G. Petri eius filius” and "R. de Rochafolio et fratri tuo B. de Andusia...domine Alazaiz filii" swore homage for "castrum de Breissacho" {Brissac} by charter dated May 1189, witnessed by “...B. de Andusia...B. de Salve...[1703].  As noted above, this document (in which two individuals named “Bernard d’Anduze” are named) suggests that Bernard [V] was not the same person as Bernard son of Bertrand d’Anduze.]  Seigneur d’Anduze.  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc notes that Bernard [V] d’Anduze confirmed in Sep 1203 the homage of “Bernard d’Anduze l’Ancien son aïeul“ to “Guy de Séverac” and the monastery of Sauve for “la viguerie de Portes[1704].  "Bertrand [error for Bernard?] et son fils Pierre d’Anduze" donated annual salt supplies “dans le grenier d’Alais” to Bonnefoy by charter dated 1210[1705]Bernard [V], his wife and children were named in a complex series of documents relating to Fressac castle, dated in 1210, which are discussed below under his wife.  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc records that “Bernard [VII] d’Anduze [=Bernard [V]]“ and “Pierre Bermond...[son] fils aîné” confirmed a donation to Bonneval, for the soul of “son frère Pierre Bermond“, by charter dated Feb 1214[1706].  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc states that “Bernard [VII] d’Anduze“ died “vers l’an 1223” without citing the source on which this date is based[1707].  He died before 13 Sep 1223, the date of a charter recording an agreement between his grandson and the heirs of the latter’s uncle Bernard (see below). 

m MARQUISE, daughter of --- ([1155/60?]-after 19 Apr 1210).  The charter dated 8 Jan 1212 pertaining to the divorce of Pedro II King of Aragon and Marie de Montpellier notes that information on the couple’s consanguinity was obtained from “...domino B. de Andusia et a domino episcopo Cyffricensi fratre eius, et a domina Marchisa eius uxore...[1708].  Marquise’s birth date is estimated from the probable chronology of her children’s lives, assuming that she was the mother of all of Bernard [V]’s children shown below (the doubt about which is discussed below).  Information about her family origin is indicated by another document concerning the Aragon/Montpellier divorce: a charter dated 28 Jan 1211 (O.S.) records various testimonies, including “Dominus B. de Andusia” who swore that six years previously he had heard and believed (“audivit dici VI anni sunt...et...hec ita vera esse credebat”) that “Bonifacius marchio” was father of “Bonifacium et Guillelmum Marchisium et Sibiliam”, that from “Bonifacio” issued [“exivit”] “Marchisia uxor B. de Andusia, qui modo testimonium peribet[1709].  The last phrase, an unusual use of the verb “pereo/perire”, presumably indicates that “B. de Andusia” was the same as the person swearing the testimony and therefore that Marquise was his wife.  If that is correct, she was Marquise [Marchesia], a descendant of Bonifazio Marchese di Cortemiglia.  Precise estimation of the chronology of the Monferrato/Saluzzo family is difficult, but Bonifazio’s birth can be estimated to [1090/1115].  His children’s dates of birth can therefore only be estimated very broadly to [1115/50].  With that broad date range, Marquise could have been Bonifazio’s granddaughter or his great-granddaughter.  Unfortunately, the verified information on Bonifazio’s descendants (see the document MONFERRATO, SALUZZO) is too limited to speculate sensibly on Marquise’s precise parentage. 

Marquise is named in a series of documents relating to Fressac castle in the diocesis of Le Puy: 

(1) A charter dated Mar 1209 (O.S.) records that “Geraldus magister hospitalis Aniciensis ecclesie...rector eiusdem” claimed Fressac from domino Bernardo de Andusia et...domina Marquisia uxoris eius”, who stated that they had acquired (“acceptaverant”) and paid for the castle from the chapter of the diocesis of Le Puy (“a capitulo Aniciensis ecclesie”) with the consent of “Bertrandi episcopo de Podio [Bernard de Chalancon, bishop [1198] to Dec 1213[1710]] et Rotgerii rectoris predicti hospitalis”.  “Geraldus magister” challenged this acquisition, claimed the right to other payments from the castle which had, before the acquisition by Bernard and Marquise, been made “in vita domini Bernardi Andusie, avi predicti Bernardi, et in vita istius Bernardi”, and demanded a lump sum payment from “dominum Bernardum et dominam Marchisiam et Petrum Bermundum et Bernardum, fratrem eius” who committed to everything except relating to “manso” which “domina Marchisia” had bought from “Guillelmo Bedoscio[1711]

(2) The same charter records that “postea...XIII Kal Maii” [19 Apr 1210] “domina Marchisia” [presumably in the temporary absence of her husband] sold “castrum Zuc de Freszac” to “hospital...et...Geraldo”, at “Andusiam, in castro”, and confirmed receipt of the sale price mentioned in (1), in the presence of “Bermundi et Marchisii, filiorum eius” who also confirmed [everything in documents (1) and (2)]. 

(3)  The same charter also records that, 19 Apr 1210 “ad Andusiam, ante ecclesiam Sancti Stephani, in cimiterio”, “dominus Petrus Bermundi et Bernardus frater eius” confirmed [everything in documents (1) and (2)]. 

(4)  It also records that in the following week, so 25/30 Apr 1210, “dominus Bernardus Andusie” confirmed [everything in documents (1) and (2)], in the presence of “...Bermundi filii ipsius domini Bernardi...” with the seal of “domini Bernardi Andusie”. 

The documents raise difficult questions of interpretation but appear to represent an agreement in principle in (1), the receipt of money in (2), the confirmation of everything, including the receipt, in (2) (by Bermond and Marquis), in (3) (by Pierre Bermond and Bernard), and in (4) by Bernard [V]. 

These documents have been quoted at some length as some interesting conclusions can be drawn from their detailed wording:

Firstly, the appearance of the two sets of children in different documents (Pierre Bermond/Bernard and Bermond/Marquis) may at first sight indicate a distinction in their births: maybe each pair was born from different marriages of their father, Marquise being his second wife and mother only of Bermond and Marquis.  However, the omission of Bermond and Marquis from document (1) could be explained by their termporary absence when the document was signed and, in any case, does not appear to have been crucial in view of their confirmation of document (1) in document (2).  In any case, Pierre Bermond and Bernard also confirmed document (1) in document (2), despite their presence in document (1).  It should be noted that the wording of the three confirmations in (2), (3) and (4) is identical, which suggests that all confirmants were of similar status, although the requirement for three separate confirmations is unclear unless it was because all six parties were unavailable at the same time and place to sign one document.  It is also correct to note that document (1) does not specify that the brothers Pierre Bermond and Bernard were sons of Bernard [V] and Marquise, although that precision may not have been considered necessary by the scribe to ensure the clarity of the text.  In conclusion, on the basis of these documents alone, it appears difficult to argue that Marquise must have been Bernard [V]’s second wife, although the possibility of Bernard having married twice cannot be excluded. 

Secondly, while the purchase mentioned in document (1) can be dated to after [1199], the reference to payments made by Bernard [V]’s grandfather indicates that the family had held an interest in Fressac for many years: maybe they were long-standing fiefholders of the bishop of Le Puy. 

Thirdly, the inclusion of Marquise in the documents suggests that she held some direct shared interest in Fressac before the post-[1199] acquisition, maybe inherited from her own family and passed to her husband on their marriage.  If that was not the case, her husband’s presence would have been sufficient to finalise the purchase in the name of the whole family.  In this respect, Marquise providing the receipt of funds in document (2), in the absence of her husband, could also indicate a prominent personal role in the transaction.  This suggestion must remain speculative until information emerges about the earlier fiefholding of Fressac: at the time of writing, no such information has been found.  Marquise’s possible holding in Fressac would not necessarily be inconsistent with her Monferrato/Saluzzo origin, given that her descent from that family could have been through the female line. 

Fourthly, the same comment applies to the inclusion in the transaction of the four sons whose future interests would normally have been represented by their father during his lifetime.  Maybe their presence was deemed necessary because of their mother’s separate interest in the property, although if that is correct it is unclear why the presence of Bernard [V] and Marquise would not have been sufficient.  No satisfactory explanation for their inclusion has been found. 

Fifthly, the reference to payments made by the Anduze family before the post-[1199] acquisition names Bernard [V]’s grandfather and Bernard [V] himself.  The omission of his father from the list suggests that the succession either passed direct from the grandfather to his grandson, that the father was head of the family only briefly, or that the succession by-passed him.  If that is correct, Bernard [V]’s father may have died young, a possibility which is discussed in more detail above. 

Bernard [V] & his wife had five children: 

1.         PIERRE BERMOND ([1170/75?]-Rome end 1215)"Bernardi de Andusia, Petri Bremundi filii eius" were among the witnesses of the charter dated Oct 1205 under which "Petrus…Rex Aragoniæ et comes Barchinoniæ et dominus Montispessulani" and "Raimundo…Duci Narbonæ, Comiti Tolosæ et Marchioni Provinciæ" arranged the marriage of their children[1712].  His parentage is confirmed by the charter dated 9 Sep 1218 under which "Raymundus...dux Narbonæ et comes Tolosæ, marchio Provinciæ" and [his son] "Petro Bermundo domino de Salve nepoti meo, nato ex filia mea" reached agreement about "castrum...de Valserga" acquired by "patre tuo quondam Petro Bermudo genero meo et...avo tuo Bernardo de Andusia"[1713].  Pierre Bermond is named in the 1210 Fressac documents discussed above under Marquise, wife of Bernard [V].  "Bertrand [error for Bernard?] et son fils Pierre d’Anduze" donated annual salt supplies “dans le grenier d’Alais” to Bonnefoy by charter dated 1210[1714].  "...P. Bermundi..." witnessed the charter dated 15 Jul 1210 under which "Willelmum de Baucio filium Bertrandi de Baucio" and "D. R. comitem Tolosæ reginæ Constanciæ filium" confirmed the settlement of their dispute[1715].  Seigneur de Sauve: Pierre Bermond’s holding the seigneurie de Sauve is confirmed by the 1212 letter quoted below under his wife, the date indicating that he succeeded as seigneur before the death of his father (although insufficient data is available to estimate the date of his succession).  The basis of his succession to Sauve has not been ascertained, although as noted above under his paternal grandmother the name of his paternal uncle Pierre Bermond suggests an earlier connection with the Sauve family through the female line.  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc records that “Bernard [VII] d’Anduze [=Bernard [V]]“ and “Pierre Bermond...[son] fils aîné” confirmed a donation to Bonneval, for the soul of “son frère Pierre Bermond“, by charter dated Feb 1214[1716].  Co-seigneur d’Alès: this is confirmed by the 25 Apr 1220 charter quoted below in which [his brother] "B. de Andusia, filius domini B. de Andusia" swore allegiance to "D. A...dux Narbonæ, comite Tolosæ et domino Montisfortis" for "villæ de Alesto quæ fuit Petri Bermundi"[1717].  The succession of Alès is discussed in the charter dated 13 Sep 1223 quoted below under the widow of his brother Bernard[1718].  No primary source has been identified which confirms that Pierre Bermond succeeded his father as seigneur d’Anduze: maybe he predeceased his father.  The primary source which confirms his date and place of death has not been identified.  m (after [1200]) as her second husband, CONSTANCE de Toulouse, divorced wife of SANCHO VII "el Fuerte" King of Navarre, daughter of RAYMOND VI Comte de Toulouse & his second wife Béatrice de Béziers ([1180]-after 12 May 1260).  The Chronicle of Guillaume de Puylaurens records that the daughter of Comte Raymond VI and his wife Beatrix de Béziers married "le roi de Navarre", but confuses her with her mother when he adds that the latter married secondly "Pierre Bermond de Salvio" after her repudiation[1719].  Her second marriage is confirmed by the letter by Pierre Bermond Seigneur de Sauve to Pope Innocent III dated 1212 in which he refers to his "uxorem…quondam filiam comitis Tolosani" when requesting recognition as nearest heir to the comte de Toulouse[1720].  Her name is confirmed by the charter dated Nov 1219 under which "Raymundus, filius domini Raymundi...ducis Narbonæ, comitis Tolosæ, marchionis" confirmed dispositions by "pater meus" to "Petro Bermundi di Salvi nepoti meo, nato ex sorore mea domina Constancia"[1721].  Pierre Bermond & his wife had six children: 

a)         PIERRE BERMOND ([1204]-[8 Jun/Aug] 1254).  "Raymundus...dux Narbonæ et comes Tolosæ, marchio Provinciæ" and "Petro Bermundo domino de Salve nepoti meo, nato ex filia mea" reached agreement about "castrum...de Valserga" acquired by "patre tuo quondam Petro Bermudo genero meo et...avo tuo Bernardo de Andusia" by charter dated 9 Oct 1218, which also names "Bernardi de Andusia patrui tui...uxore sua domina Vierna"[1722]Seigneur d'Anduze et de Sauve. 

-        see below

b)         RAYMOND (-before 30 Jul 1255).  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc names “...Raimond...“ as second son of Pierre Bermond [VI], adding that he inherited “la quatrième partie d’Anduze” and was ancestor of the barons de Florac, without citing the primary sources on which this information is based[1723].  “Raymond d’Anduse” swore homage to the bishop of Mende for “le château de Florac...” 18 Jul 1219[1724].  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc records that Raymond VII Comte de Toulouse received homage from “Raimond d’Anduze pour la quatrième partie du château et de la ville d’Anduze” at la Roque de Valsergue dated Jul 1224[1725].  He is named in the marriage contract of his son Bertrand.  “Dominum Guigonem de Tornello...et O. filio suo” swore homage for “castrum de Turnello...” to the bishop of Mende, promising to confirm “castro...Castel boc [Castelbouc]” to “dominum R. de Andusia quam Garinum de Chastel nou filium condam Garini de Apcherio”, by charter dated 11 Aug 1249, witnessed by “...R. de Andusia, B. eius filius...[1726].  He died before 30 Jul 1255 when his son swore homage for his castles.  m ---.  The primary source which confirms the identity of Raymond’s wife has not been identified.  Raymond & his wife had one child: 

i)          BERTRAND d’Anduze (-before 24 Apr 1259).  His parentage is confirmed by his marriage contract quoted below.  “Bertrand d’Anduse fils de feu Raymond” swore homage to the bishop of Mende 30 Jul 1255 for most of the castles for which his father had sworn homage 18 Jul 1219[1727].  “Dominum Guigonem de Tornello...et O. filio suo” swore homage for “castrum de Turnello...” to the bishop of Mende, by charter dated 11 Aug 1249, witnessed by “...R. de Andusia, B. eius filius...[1728].  “Bertrandus, in illa infirmitate de qua obiit” granted his properties “in Gaballitano” in fief to Odilon de Mercœur Bishop of Mende, requesting him to be guardian to “liberos suos[1729].  He died before 24 Apr 1259 when homage was sworn on behalf of his minor son.  m (contract 21 Apr 1246) RAYMONDE de Roquefeuil, daughter of RAYMOND [II] Seigneur de Roquefeuil & his wife Dauphine de Turenne (-after 2 Jul 1298).  "Raimunda filia quondam bone memorie...Raimundi de Rocafolio", with the consent of “domina Dalphina mater mea...dominus Hugo...comes Ruthenensis...cum domina Ysabella eadem...comitissa Ruthene et sorore mea”, renounced rights to Roquefeuil as part of her marriage contract with “Bertrandum de Andusia filium...domini Raimundi de Andusia” by charter dated 21 Apr 1246, and later “Bertrandus de Andusia”, in the presence of “domino Raimundo de Andusia patre meo”, confirmed this agreement by charter dated 20 Sep 1247[1730].  “Raymonde dame de Florac” swore homage 27 May 1270, 23 Jun 1292, and 2 Jul 1298[1731].  Bertrand & his wife had two children: 

(a)       RAYMOND d’Anduze (-before 27 May 1270).  The guardians of “Raymond d’Anduse fils de feu Bertrand d’Anduse” swore homage 24 Apr 1259[1732].  He must have died before 27 May 1270, when his mother swore homage presumably on behalf of his sister. 

(b)       ISABELLE d’Anduze (-after 11 Sep 1308).  “Ysabellis, auctoritate domini G. de Castronovo, curatoris sui, et Poncius de Monte Lauro maritus eiusdem Ysabellis, auctoritate domini Eraclei patris sui” acknowledged the authority of the bishop of Mende over their property “in Gaballitano[1733].  “Elisabeth d’Anduse fille de feu Bertrand d’Anduse”, with the consent of “Guigon de Castelnau son curateur”, swore homage to the bishop of Mende 7 May 1277 for the properties for which homage was sworn 18 Jul 1219 [see above][1734].  Dame de Florac: “Elisabeth d’Anduse dame de la baronnie de Florac” swore homage for “noble Raymond d’Anduse son fils et héritier” 11 Sep 1308[1735].  The name of Isabelle’s second husband has not been ascertained, but the latter homage indicates that her son inherited Florac and adopted the name “Anduze”.  Another possibility is that Isabelle’s second husband was also a member of the Anduze family.  m firstly ([1263?]) as his second wife, PONS de Montlaur, son of HERACLE de Montlaur & his wife Agnes de Polignac (-[10 Oct/10 Dec] 1274).  m secondly ---. 

c)         BERMOND .  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc names “...Bermond...“ as third son of Pierre Bermond [VI], adding that he was ancestor of the “barons du Cayla au diocèse de Nimes”, without citing the primary sources on which this information is based[1736]

-        BARONS de CAILAR[1737]

d)         daughter .  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc records that the elder (unnamed) daughter of Pierre Bermond [VI] was “dame en partie du château de Sauve” and married “Hugues de Mirabel”, without citing the primary sources on which this information is based[1738]m HUGUES de Mirabel, son of ---. 

e)         --- d’Anduze (-after 24 Feb 1289).  Her parentage and betrothal are confirmed by the following document: “Pierre Bermond seigneur de Sauve” leased certain rights, including those which “Bertrand d’Anduze...Adalasie fille dudit Bertrand d’Anduze” had held, to “Arnaud de Roquefeuil noble écuyer du château de Roquefeuil”, with Arnaud acknowledging receipt of money promised if his marriage to “la sœur dudit de Sauve” did not taken place, by charter dated 1 Mar 1227 (O.S.?)[1739].  The last phrase indicates the marriage must not have taken place, otherwise the condition for payment of the money would not have been satisfied.  Betrothed (before 1 Mar 1227) to ARNAUD [I] de Roquefeuil, son of RAYMOND [I] d’Anduze Seigneur de Roquefeuil & his wife Guillemette “Marchisia” de Montpellier (-after 5 Oct 1242). 

f)          SIBYLLE d'Anduze (-after 9 Jun 1279).  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc records that Sibylle third daughter of Pierre Bermond [VI] married “Barral seigneur de Baux”, without citing the primary sources on which this information is based[1740]The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not yet been identified, although her parentage is suggested by the agreement dated 1240 between "Raymond VII Comte de Toulouse" and "Guigues Comte du Viennois" referring to the marriage of the latter to "Cécile sa nièce, fille de Barral de Baux"[1741].  Her name is confirmed by the letter dated 4 Jun 1269 from Alphonse Comte de Poitou et de Toulouse relating to "castri de Carumbo, quod...tenet nobilis domina Sybilia, uxor quondam nobilis viri defuncti Barralli, domini Baucii"[1742].  A charter dated 9 Jun 1279 records the execution of the testament of "Barral de Baux", in the presence of “Bertrand de Baux comte d’Avellin”, recording payments “au noble comte de Rodez, veuf de la sœur de Bertrand pour la dot non payée de sa femme...Sibylle mère du comte d’Avellin[1743]m (before 21 Aug 1240) BARRAL Seigneur des Baux, son of HUGUES des Baux Vicomte de Marseille & his wife Barale Vicomtesse de Marseille (-[31 Jul/13 Oct] 1268, bur Sylvacane). 

2.         BERNARD ([1170/75?]-before 13 Sep 1223).  He is named in the 1210 Fressac documents discussed above under Marquise, wife of Bernard [V].  His parentage is confirmed by the charter dated 9 Sep 1218 under which "Raymundus...dux Narbonæ et comes Tolosæ, marchio Provinciæ" and "Petro Bermundo domino de Salve nepoti meo, nato ex filia mea" reached agreement about "castrum...de Valserga" acquired by "patre tuo quondam Petro Bermudo genero meo et...avo tuo Bernardo de Andusia", which also names "Bernardi de Andusia patrui tui...uxore sua domina Vierna"[1744].  Seigneur de Portes et de Largentière (part)[1745].  Co-seigneur d’Alès [1216]: "B. de Andusia, filius domini B. de Andusia" swore allegiance to "D. A...dux Narbonæ, comite Tolosæ et domino Montisfortis" for "villæ de Alesto quæ fuit Petri Bermundi" by charter dated 25 Apr 1220 which names "R.

Vierna uxorem quondam D. Bernardi de Andusia" was "tutrice liberorum suorum"[1751].  Bernard & his wife had three or more children: 

a)         children .  They are referred to in the 13 Sep 1223 charter quoted above, which names their mother as their guardian.  No other source has been found which names these children, whose number is not known.  Maybe they died before reaching the age of majority. 

b)         BERNARD d’Anduze (-1238).  Père Anselme names “Bernard d’Anduze...mort sans enfans de Raymonde de Roquefeuil en 1238” as son of Bernard d’Anduze shown above and his wife “Vierne du Luc dame de Joyeuse[1752].  The primary sources which confirm this information have not been identified.  It is not known whether there is confusion with Raymonde de Roquefeuil, wife of Bertrand d’Anduze (see above). 

c)         MARQUISE d’Anduze ([1200/10?]-)Dame de Portes, de Luc et de Pradelles.  Père Anselme records her parentage and marriage (no source citations)[1753].  Her family origin is confirmed by her husband being named dominus Randonus et dominus Bertrandus de Andusia, sororius” (Remize does not date this extract or provide more context)[1754]m RANDON Seigneur de Châteauneuf, son of GUIGUES Meschin Seigneur de Châteauneuf & his wife Valborge de Châteauneuf ([1195/1205?]-after 20 Mar 1271).

3.         BERMOND (-[Jan 1236/[1238]?]).  He is named in the 1210 Fressac documents discussed above under Marquise, wife of Bernard [V].  Bishop of Viviers [1222].  Gallia Christiana records “Bermundum vocamus qui Bernoinus etiam scribitur”, third son of “Andusia...dominus...Bernardus VII [=Bernard [V]]”, as Bishop of Viviers between 1223 and 1235[1759].  His parentage is confirmed by a charter dated 13 Sep 1223 between "nobilem virum Petrum Bernardum" and "hæredes nobili viri Bernardi de Andusia avunculi sui", stating that "D. Vierna uxorem quondam D. Bernardi de Andusia" was "tutrice liberorum suorum" and naming "D. Bernardo de Andusia avo ipsorum" and "D. Bermundo Vivariensi episcopo et D. Bernardo de Andusia monacho Mansiadæ" as two of the latter’s other children[1760].  Emperor Friedrich II confirmed the privileges of the church of Viviers to “B...Vivariensis episcopus” by charter dated Jan 1235 (O.S.)[1761]

Vierna uxorem quondam D. Bernardi de Andusia" was "tutrice liberorum suorum" and naming "D. Bernardo de Andusia avo ipsorum" and "D. Bermundo Vivariensi episcopo et D. Bernardo de Andusia monacho Mansiadæ" as two of the latter’s other children[1762].  Monk at Masan.  Unlike his four known brothers named above, Bernard was not named in the Mar 1210/19 Apr 1210 charters relating to Fressac discussed above.  This could indicate that he was too young at the time to participate in the transaction, although if that is correct he would have been considerably younger than his brothers, or that he had already entered the church. 

 

 

The following person has not otherwise been identified or connected with the main Anduze family.  It is possible that “B” in the charter quoted below represents a mistranscription, especially considering that the 13 Sep 1223 charter suggests that Pierre Bermond (husband of Josserande de Poitiers) would have been co-seigneur d’Alès at that time. 

 

1.         B--- d’Anduze (-after May 1238).  Co-seigneur d’Alès: A charter dated May 1238 records an agreement between "B. de Andusia" and “R. Peleti”, both “communiter condomini Alesti[1763]

The primary source which confirms the parentage of the following person has not been found.  Her name suggests that she was the daughter of Bermond [I] d’Anduze and his wife Raimbaude de Simiane.  Not enough reliable data points are available to test the chronology of this suggestion.  One difficulty is the marriage of her supposed granddaughter Marguerite with Bermond [III] d’Anduze, grandson of Bermond [I] (see above).

m ---.  The name of Raymond’s wife is not known. 

Raymond [I] & his wife had two children: 

1.         RAYMOND Decan [II] (-Aug 1138, bur Psalmody).  A bull of Pope Calixtus II dated 22 Apr 1122 ordered "Bernardo Biterrensi vicecomiti, Bernardo de Andusia, Raimundo Decano de Poscheriis" to support the abbot and monks of Saint-Gilles against Alphonse Comte de Toulouse and others[1858]"Decanus de Poschariis, Bernardus de Andusia...Gaucelmus de Clareto..." witnessed the charter dated 1125 which records the peace agreement between "Bernardum comitem Melguriensem" and Guillaume [VI] Seigneur de Montpellier[1859].  The testament of "Bernardus-Atonis vicecomes Biterrensis", dated 1129, was witnessed by "Cæcilia vicecomitissa et Raimundo Poscheriarum Decano…"[1860].  "Guillermi de Montepessulano, Bernardi de Andusa, Decani, comitis de Foissio..." witnessed the charter dated 23 Feb 1130 (O.S.?) which records an agreement between "Rogerius de Biterri et frater suus Raimundus Trencavelli" concerning their father’s inheritance[1861].  An epitaph at the church of Psalmody records the death in Aug 1138 of "Raimundus Decani dominus Posqueriarum et Ucetiæ, pater episcoporum Raimundi Vivariensis, Raimundi Ucetiensis et Alberti Nemausensis"[1862]m ---.  Raymond [II] & his wife had [five] children: 

a)         ROSTAING [I] de Posquières (-[1142/46]).  The seigneurs d’Uzès et de Posquières are discussed in Histoire Générale de Languedoc Tome IV, according to which Rostaing de Posquières was the brother of Faydive d’Uzès, wife of Alphonse Jourdain Comte de Toulouse[1863].  This has not been verified.  m (Béziers 1121) ERMESINDE de Béziers, daughter of BERNARD Vicomte de Nîmes, d’Agde et de Béziers & his wife Cécile de Provence (-before 1146).  The marriage contract between “Bernardus Nemausensium et Agathensium et Biterrensium vicecomes et…Cæcilia vicecomitissa…filia nostra Ermessindi” and “Rostagno de Poscheriis” is dated 1121 and records “castrum Margaritas…[et] castrum…Calvenzing…[et] mediatem castri Belvedin” as her dowry[1864].  The charter dated 1146, under which "Ato vicecomes Nemausensis" guaranteed the succession of her son "R. de Poscheriis nepoti meo" to property granted as dowry by "pater meus…cum filia sua Ermesens" to "patri tuo R….Margaritas, Bellumvicinum, Calvuconem"[1865], suggests that Ermesinde had died by that date.  Rostaing [I] & his wife had three children: 

i)          ROSTAING [II] de Posquières (-after 1146).  "B. Ato vicecomes Nemausensis" confirmed his obligations to "R. de Poscheriis nepoti meo" which "pater meus dedit cum filia sua Ermesendi, patri tuo R....Margaritas, Bellivicinum, Calvicionem" by charter dated 1146[1866].  "Ato vicecomes Nemausensis" guaranteed the succession of "R. de Poscheriis nepoti meo" to property granted as dowry by "pater meus…cum filia sua Ermesens" to "patri tuo R….Margaritas, Bellumvicinum, Calvuconem" by charter dated 1146[1867]Betrothed ([1141]) to, his first cousin, --- de Béziers, daughter of RAYMOND Trencavel Vicomte de Béziers & his [first] wife Adelicia --- (-[before 21 Apr 1154]).  "Rostagnus de Poscherias" confirmed agreement with "Raimundo vicecomite" relating to the marriage of "filiam suum…Rostagnus" and "filiam ipsius Raimundi", and, if Rostaing died, to "filios suos Petrum…" by charter dated to [1141][1868].  This daughter is not named in her father’s will dated 21 Apr 1154 so presumably died before then, unless she was the same person as his daughter Cécile. 

ii)         PIERRE de Posquières (-after [1141]).  "Rostagnus de Poscherias" confirmed agreement with "Raimundo vicecomite" relating to the marriage of "filiam suum…Rostagnus" and "filiam ipsius Raimundi", and, if Rostaing died, to "filios suos Petrum…" by charter dated to [1141][1869]

iii)        AGNES de Posquières m PONS Seigneur de Montlaur, son of ---. 

b)         BERMOND d’Uzès (-after 1174).  "Bremundus dominus Uceciæ et Poscheriarum" donated property to the abbey of Bonnecombe, in the presence of "Raymundo Uceciæ filio præfati Bermundo", by charter dated 1168[1870]Seigneur d’Uzès

-        SEIGNEURS d’UZES

c)         RAYMOND (-[1170]).  His parentage is confirmed by an epitaph at the church of Psalmody which records the death in Aug 1138 of "Raimundus Decani dominus Posqueriarum et Ucetiæ, pater episcoporum Raimundi Vivariensis, Raimundi Ucetiensis et Alberti Nemausensis"[1871]Bishop of Viviers

d)         RAYMOND (-13 Dec 1188).  His parentage is confirmed by an epitaph at the church of Psalmody which records the death in Aug 1138 of "Raimundus Decani dominus Posqueriarum et Ucetiæ, pater episcoporum Raimundi Vivariensis, Raimundi Ucetiensis et Alberti Nemausensis"[1872]Bishop of Uzès.  “Galburgim et Ugonem de Ussel eiusdem filium” swore allegiance to Raymond V Comte de Toulouse for “castris de Ussel”, in the presence of “Raimundi Uticensis episcopi, Bermundi de Ucecia fratris eius”, by charter dated Jan 1169 (O.S.?)[1873]

e)         ALBERT (-[1180]).  His parentage is confirmed by an epitaph at the church of Psalmody which records the death in Aug 1138 of "Raimundus Decani dominus Posqueriarum et Ucetiæ, pater episcoporum Raimundi Vivariensis, Raimundi Ucetiensis et Alberti Nemausensis"[1874]Bishop of Nîmes. 

f)          [FAYDIVE [Faydide] (-after Jun 1147).  She is named in a charter dated 12 Dec 1172 under which Ctss Beatrix agreed terms with "Raymond comte de Toulouse fils de Faidite" for the marriage of her daughter Ermensende and his son "Raymond fils de Constance"[1875].  Raymond Bishop of Viviers called himself "avunculus" of the Comte de Toulouse [Raymond V] in 1160 when writing to Louis VII King of France[1876].  The Histoire Générale de Languedoc identifies the bishop as the son of "Raymond Decan Seigneur d’Usez et de Posquières" and then assumes that Faydive was therefore the bishop’s sister[1877].  However, it is not impossible that the bishop used avunculus in the more general sense of a more distant relative in the preceding generation, especially when it may have been beneficial to him to claim a close family relationship with such an influential person as Raymond V Comte de Toulouse.  It is not therefore without doubt that Faydive was the daughter of Raymond Seigneur d’Uzès, especially as it seems surprising that the wife of Alphonse Comte de Toulouse should not have been the member of a more illustrious family.  Faydive left France with her husband in Jun 1147 on the Second Crusade[1878]m (before 16 Sep 1125) ALPHONSE I JOURDAIN Comte de Toulouse, son RAYMOND IV Comte de Toulouse & his third wife doña Elvira Alfonso of Castille (castle of Mount Pèlerin near Tripoli 1103-Caesarea 16 Apr 1148).] 

2.         RAINON [I] (-1156 or after).  "Raimond Decan et Raynier son frère" are named in a charter of the abbey of Psalmodi dated 1097[1879]Seigneur d’Uzès.  Seigneur de Caylar.  Bernard Aton Vicomte de Béziers sold property at Caylar and Teillan to "Rainon et Guillaume Rainon" by charter dated 1141[1880]m BEATRIX, daughter of ---.  Rainon [I] & his wife had [two] children:

b)         ROSCIE (-before 1206).  The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not yet been identified.   Dame d’Uzès.  m as his second wife, ROSTAIN [II] de Sabran, son of GUILLAUME de Sabran & his wife --- (-1172 or after). 

 

 

 

F.      SEIGNEURS de SAUVE

 

 

Sauve is situated about 10 kilometres south of Anduze and about 40 kilometres west of Nîmes.  It is today located in the French département of Gard, arrondissement Le Vigan, canton Sauve.  The early seigneurs de Sauve were related to the seigneurs d’Anduze, shown in a separate section of the present document.  Reconstructing the Sauve family is just as challenging as the reconstruction of the seigneurs d’Anduze, also due to the paucity of surviving primary sources and the repeated use of the same names.  One possible reconstruction is shown below but the uncertainty is such that it should not be regarded as the definitive answer.  Pierre Bermond d’Anduze, son of Bernard [V] Seigneur d’Anduze, was recorded as seigneur de Sauve in the early 13th century.  How he acquired the seigneurie de Sauve has not been ascertained.  One possibility is that he was a descendant in the female line from the Sauve family and was the nearest male heir.  If that is correct, the precise family connection has not been found. 

 

 

1.         BERNARD "Pelet" [de Sauve?] (-after 20 Oct 1020).  ["Raimundus comes filius Berteldis" [Raymond [II] Comte de Rouergue] donated the church of Palatio (“alode meo de Palaiz” bordering “terra Bernardo filio Almerado”) to the abbey of Conques by charter dated Feb [998/1010][1882].  It is not known with certainty that “Bernardo filio Almerado” was Bernard “Pelet”.  However, the later involvement of his second wife in the same property, as seen below, suggests that this might be the case.]  "Bernardus miles, Pelitus et infantes mei episcopi, id est Fredolus, presul et Geiraldus pontifex et Almeradus, et alii infantes mei, Raimundus et Bermundus et mater illorum Garsindis" donated property to Nîmes Notre-Dame by charter dated 20 Oct 1020, subscribed by "…Garsindis comitissa…"[1883]m firstly ERMENGARDE, daughter of ---.  Her marriage is confirmed by the charter dated 1042 under which her stepson and son "Bermundus de Salveo filius Garsindis et Almeradus frater meus de Andusa filius Ermengardis" donated property to the church of Saint-Pierre de Maurois, for the soul of "patris mei Bernardi"[1884]m secondly (after Apr 1011) as her second husband, GARSINDIS de Béziers, widow of RAYMOND ROGER Comte de Carcassonne, daughter of GUILLAUME [II] Vicomte de Béziers & his first wife Ermentrudis --- (975-after 29 Sep 1043).  A charter dated 28 Aug 1013 “vite domno Bernardo marchione et domna Guarsinde comitissa” records that "Richardus per vocem uxoris suæ Senegundis" claimed that “Garsindis comitissa...filia Villelmo vicecomite” had granted “villa...Palaiz” to his wife[1885].  "Bernardus miles, Pelitus et infantes mei episcopi, id est Fredolus, presul et Geiraldus pontifex et Almeradus, et alii infantes mei, Raimundus et Bermundus et mater illorum Garsindis" donated property to Nîmes Notre-Dame by charter dated 20 Oct 1020, subscribed by "…Garsindis comitissa…"[1886]A charter dated 18 Dec 1029 records the foundation of the monastery of Sauve by "Garsindis et filius meus Bremundus et frater eius Almeradus", for the soul of "genitoris nostri Barnardi", in the presence of "Wilelmi comitis Tholosani…Atthonis vicecomitis, et Berengarii, et fratris eius Elisiari de ipso Castro…Emenonis de Sabrano…"[1887]"Garsendis comitissa…et filiis meis Petro et Guillelmo et Bermundo" donated property to Conques, for the souls of "genitoris mei Guillelmi…genetricis meæ et…Bernardi senioris mei et filii mei Remundi et…filiorum meorum Guillelmi, Petroni, Bermundi", by charter dated Aug [1034][1888]"Petrus Raimundi comes" donated property to the church of Béziers, with the advice of "Garsindis comitissæ matri meæ", by charter dated 29 Sep 1043[1889]Bernard Pelet & his first wife had three children:

Of the following family group, the wording of the charter in which they are all named clearly indicates that Raymond and Guillaume were brothers.  However, it is unclear whether the wording was intended to indicate that all six witnesses were brothers. 

 

1.         BERENGER de Sauve .  "Adalais filia Ermesendis de Maroiol que fui uxor Petri Rostagni de Salve et…" sold property "in tota parrochia Sancti Marcelli de Avellano" to "altari Sancti Salvatoris Gellonensis", in the presence of "Bernardi de Andusia et Berengerii de Salve et Bermundi et Raimundi de Salve et Guillelmi fratris eius…", by charter dated 1137[1932]

3.         RAYMOND de Sauve .  "Adalais filia Ermesendis de Maroiol que fui uxor Petri Rostagni de Salve et…" sold property "in tota parrochia Sancti Marcelli de Avellano" to "altari Sancti Salvatoris Gellonensis", in the presence of "Bernardi de Andusia et Berengerii de Salve et Bermundi et Raimundi de Salve et Guillelmi fratris eius…", by charter dated 1137[1935]

4.         GUILLAUME de Sauve .  "Adalais filia Ermesendis de Maroiol que fui uxor Petri Rostagni de Salve et…" sold property "in tota parrochia Sancti Marcelli de Avellano" to "altari Sancti Salvatoris Gellonensis", in the presence of "Bernardi de Andusia et Berengerii de Salve et Bermundi et Raimundi de Salve et Guillelmi fratris eius…", by charter dated 1137[1936]

 

 

Two brothers: 

1.         ELZIAR de Sauve (-after 1168).  A charter dated 1168 records that "n Elsiars de Salve e sos fraire en Rostanz" swore allegiance to "el vescontessa de Nemse na Guillelma"[1937].  The version of this charter in the Layettes du Trésor des Chartes adds “Aqesta carta es de l’estar qe ac a Berniz Elesiars de Salve et sui infantes[1938]

2.         ROSTAIN .  A charter dated 1168 records that "n Elsiars de Salve e sos fraire en Rostanz" swore allegiance to "el vescontessa de Nemse na Guillelma"[1939]

 

 

1.         PIERRE BERMOND  .  Seigneur de Sauve.  m ---.  The name of Pierre Bermond’s wife is not known.  Pierre Bermond [III] & his wife had one child: 

a)         PIERRE BERMOND de Sauve (-[1 Apr/11 Dec] 1172).  Seigneur de Sauve et de Sommières.  m (before Oct 1170) as her first husband, ERMESENDE Pelet, daughter of BERNARD Pelet Seigneur d’Alès Comte de Melgueil & his wife Beatrix Ctss de Melgueil (-Château de Malaucène [Sep/3 Nov] 1176).  "Beatrix comitissa Melgorii" divided the county of Melgueil between "filie mee Ermessende" and "Dulcie neptis mee, filie quondam filii mei Raimundi comitis Provincie" by contract dated 1 Apr 1172, which names "Petro Bermundo de Salvis genero meo" and records the betrothal between Dulcie and "Raimundo, duci Narbone, comiti Tolose, marchioni Provincie…filio"[1940].  However, Beatrix made a second donation dated 12 Dec 1172 to Ermessende only, who was by then married to Raymond de Toulouse[1941].  On the same day, Ermessende gave her inheritance to her husband.  Ctss de Melgueil 1172.  Ermessende predeceased her mother and, by her testament dated Sep 1176 and read 3 Nov 1176, granted the county to her husband, and bequeathed an annual income to her mother[1942].  She married secondly (12 Sep 1172) as his first wife, Raymond de Toulouse, who succeeded his father in 1194 as Raymond VI Comte de Toulouse, Duc de Narbonne. 

 

2.         B--- de Sauve (-after May 1189).  The presence of the witness “B. de Salve” in the following charter suggests that he was head of the Sauve family at the time, but he has not otherwise been identified.  From a chronological point of view, it is unlikely that he was the son of Pierre Bermond and his wife Ermesende Pelet.  “Vierna de Agantico [Ganges] et G. Petri eius filius” and "R. de Rochafolio et fratri tuo B. de Andusia...domine Alazaiz filii" swore homage for "castrum de Breissacho" {Brissac} by charter dated May 1189, witnessed by “...B. de Andusia...B. de Salve...[1943]

a)         BERTRAND de Sauve .  "Petrus de Salve et...nos...filii Bertrandus et Rostagnus" sold the mill of Genzanel to "Briccio Gavaldano" by charter dated Aug 1199[1945]

b)         ROSTAIN de Sauve .  "Petrus de Salve et...nos...filii Bertrandus et Rostagnus" sold the mill of Genzanel to "Briccio Gavaldano" by charter dated Aug 1199[1946]
