A.����� COMTES de BOURGOGNE 1026-1200 (IVREA)

 

 

Adalberto King of Italy fled to Burgundy after he was expelled from Italy by Emperor Otto I in the mid-960s.� After ex-King Adalberto died in 971, his widow married Henri Duke of Burgundy [Capet], who adopted as his heir Othon-Guillaume who was his wife�s son by her first marriage.� Othon-Guillaume acquired the county of M�con, in the southern part of the territory later governed by the dukes of Burgundy, by marrying the widow of the previous count (see the document BURGUNDY DUCHY NOBILITY).� After Duke Henri died in 1002, his adopted son unsuccessfully claimed the succession to the duchy of Burgundy.� After the death in 1032 of Rudolf III, last king of Burgundy, one branch of Othon-Guillaume's descendants established themselves to the east of the river Sa�ne in the area around Salins and Besan�on.� The county of Burgundy developed in this area some time during the 11th century, although it is difficult to be precise about the date.� According to Bouchard, the title "Comte de Bourgogne" was purely descriptive in the early years of the century and did not reflect any political reality[1].� The first reference to "palatine" as a supplementary title of the counts of Burgundy occurs in the Relatio Piis Operibus Ottonis Episcopi Bambergensis which names "Agnate palatina comitissa"[2], the wife of Comte Guillaume II who died in 1125.� The precise origin of this title "palatine" has not been identified.� Usually associated with a function attached to one of the royal palaces, the counts of Burgundy may have held an unidentified position in the palace, firstly of Rudolf III King of Burgundy, and later of the Rektor of Burgundy who was appointed by the kings of Germany to act as their representative in the kingdom of Burgundy.� The county of Burgundy passed into the sphere of influence of the Capetian kingdom of France with the marriage in 1307 of its heiress to the future Philippe V King of France, although it retained its separate administrative existence until it was consolidated in 1383 into the extensive territories of Philippe II "le Hardi" Duke of Burgundy [Valois].� The county of Burgundy was among the territories which passed to the Habsburg family as a result of the marriage in 1477 of Marie, daughter and heiress of Charles Duke of Burgundy, to the future Emperor Maximilian I.�

 

 

RENAUD de M�con, son of OTHON GUILLAUME Comte de M�con & his first wife Ermentrude de Roucy ([990]-3/4 Sep 1057, bur Besan�on).� Rodulfus Glaber names "Rainaldus" as one of the sons of "Willemus, Henrici ducis priuignus, Adalberti Longobardorum ducis filius" and his wife[3].� His mother's name is confirmed by the charter dated 1029 under which "Reinaldus comes filius Ottonis cognomento Vuilelmi�Yrmengardis coniugis" donated property "ecclesiam sancti Nicolai vallis iuxta Poliniacum" to Cluny, confirmed by "Rodulfus rex"[4].� The Chronicle of Saint-B�nigne de Dijon records a donation by "Otto comes cognomento Willelmus" with "filii eius Rainaldi" dated 1004 "pro anima Hinrici Ducis, qui eum loco filii adoptavit et genitricis sue Gerberge uxoris predicti Ducis, ac filii sui Widonis et Hermintrudis coniugis"[5].� "Otto comes et uxor mea Adila" donated property to Saint-Vincent de M�con by two charters dated to 1015 or before (during the reign of Robert I King of France) both subscribed by "Rainaldi filii sui"[6].� Guillaume of Jumi�ges records that �Rainaldus trans Saon� fluvium Burgundionum comes� was imprisoned by �Cabilonensi comite...Hugone�, and that Richard II Duke of Normandy sent an army headed by �Richardo filio suo� [which presumably dates the event to [1016/26]] who besieged �Milinandum castrum� and forced Renaud�s release[7].� He succeeded his father in 1026 as RENAUD I Comte de Bourgogne, although at that time the "county of Burgundy" did not yet exist as such, Bouchard suggesting that the title was purely descriptive of the area in which Renaud exercised his power[8].� The Chronicle of Saint-B�nigne, interpolated into the Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines, records that "filius eius [=comes Otto Guilelmus] comes Rainaldus" succeeded his father in "terram ultra Sagonnam" dividing the territory with his nephew "filius alterius filii eius Guidonis, alter comes Otto"[9].� Renaud supported Emperor Konrad II in the latter's struggle with Eudes Comte de Blois for control over the kingdom of Burgundy after the death of King Rudolf III in 1032.� "Raginaldus comes comitis Guillelmi filius" donated property to the abbey of Flavigny by charter dated 18 May 1037 subscribed by "Iudid comitisse uxoris eius, Guillelmi filii eius, Hugonis filii eius�"[10].� The Herimanni Augiensis Chronicon records that "Ludowicus comes" expelled "Reginoldum principem, regin� Agnetis avunculum, sed Heinrico regi inimicum" from "castellum�Mons Piligard�"[11].� Emperor Heinrich III defeated Comte Renaud in battle after the latter besieged Montb�liard, forcing him to swear allegiance to the Comte de Montb�liard at Soleure/Solothurn in 1045: Herimannus records that "Reginolf et Gerolt Burgundiones" submitted to Heinrich III King of Germany "apud Solodurum" [Solothurn] in 1045[12].� The necrology of Besan�on Cathedral records the death �II Non Sep� of �Rainaldus comes[13].� The necrology of Saint-B�nigne de Dijon records the death �II Non Sep� of �Rainaldus comes[14].�

m [firstly] (before 1 Sep 1016) ADELAIS de Normandie, daughter of RICHARD II Duke of Normandy & his first wife Judith de Rennes [Bretagne] ([1000]-[after 1030]).� Guillaume of Jumi�ges names �Adeliz� as the first daughter of �dux Richardus� and his wife �Goiffredum Britannorum comitem...sororem...Iudith�, adding that she married �Rainaldo Burgundionum comiti� by whom she had �Willelmum et Widonem� (the marriage is recorded in a later passage)[15].� Orderic Vitalis records her marriage and calls her amita of William I King of England[16].� Rodulfus Glaber states that "filiam Richardi Rotomagensis ducis, Adeledam" married Renaud[17].� "Otto comes qui nominatur Willelmus" issued a charter dated 2 Nov 1023 subscribed by "Raynardi comitis, Adheleydis uxoris eius [eius probably = Raynardi not Otto]"[18].� "Raynaldi comitis, Adheleys uxoris eius" subscribed the charter dated 1030 by which "Robertus regis Roberti filius et regis Henrici filii eius germanus�Burgundie Dux" restored property to Cluny[19].�

[m secondly JUDITH, daughter of --- (-[26/27] Jul, 1037 or after).� "Raginaldus comes comitis Guillelmi filius" donated property to the abbey of Flavigny by charter dated 18 May 1037 subscribed by "Iudid comitisse uxoris eius, Guillelmi filii eius, Hugonis filii eius�"[20].� "Iudid comitisse" is assumed in traditional genealogies[21] to have been the same person as Comte Renaud�s wife Adelais.� However, it is also possible that she was Comte Renaud's second wife, Adelais having died earlier.� This may be indicated by Renaud's sons being described in the charter as "filii eius" rather than "filii eorum", although it is acknowledged that the use of these two grammatical variants is inconsistent in contemporary sources.� The necrology of Besan�on Cathedral records the death �VII Kal Aug� of �Iudith comitissa[22].� The necrology of Saint-B�nigne de Dijon records the death �VI Kal Aug� of �Iuditha comitissa[23].]�

Renaud I & his [first] wife had four children:

1.         GUILLAUME de Bourgogne (-12 Nov 1087, bur Besan�on).� Guillaume of Jumi�ges names �Adeliz� as the first daughter of �dux Richardus� and his wife �Goiffredum Britannorum comitem...sororem...Iudith�, adding that she married �Rainaldo Burgundionum comiti� by whom she had �Willelmum et Widonem[24].� He succeeded his father in 1057 as GUILLAUME I "le Grand" Comte de Bourgogne.�����

-������� see below.�

2.         GUY de Bourgogne (-after 1069).� Guillaume of Jumi�ges names �Adeliz� as the first daughter of �dux Richardus� and his wife �Goiffredum Britannorum comitem...sororem...Iudith�, adding that she married �Rainaldo Burgundionum comiti� by whom she had �Willelmum et Widonem[25].� His parentage is also given by Orderic Vitalis[26].� The archbishop of Rouen and the Comte d'Arques proposed Guy as duke of Normandy, his claim being through his mother, in place of his cousin the infant Guillaume "le b�tard".� Guy remained in Normandy, where he was brought up with his cousin and was given the castles of Brionne and Vernon.� Pursuing his claim to Normandy, he tried to capture Duke Guillaume in 1046 with the help of N�el de Saint-Sauveur, Ranulf Vicomte de Bayeux and Haimon "le Dentu", but was forced to flee and was finally defeated at Le Val-l�s-Dunes in 1047: Guillaume of Jumi�ges records that Guillaume II Duke of Normandy granted �castrum Brioci� to �Widonem...filium Rainaldi Burgundionem comitis� who rebelled against the duke with �Nigellum Constantiniensem pr�sidem� but was defeated at �Valedunas� in 1047[27].� Orderic Vitalis records that Guy was besieged in his castle for three years, pardoned by Duke Guillaume, sought refuge temporarily at the court of Geoffroy Comte d'Anjou, and returned to Burgundy where he continually plotted to dispossess his brother over a period of ten years[28].�

3.         HUGUES de Bourgogne (-after 1045).� "Raginaldus comes comitis Guillelmi filius" donated property to the abbey of Flavigny by charter dated 18 May 1037 subscribed by "Iudid comitisse uxoris eius, Guillelmi filii eius, Hugonis filii eius�"[29].�

4.         FOULQUES de Bourgogne .� �Willelmus Burgundi� comes� donated property to Besan�on cathedral, for the souls of �mea...necnon...Fulchonis fratris mei et Ottonis filii mei�, by undated charter[30].� Bouchard suggests that he was the same person as "Foulques de Joux"[31], who is named in the Miraculis S. Mari� Laudunensis as "nobilissimus princeps in Burgundia�Falco de Jur, vel de Serrata" when recording his marriage, in its recital of the ancestry of Barth�lemy Bishop of Laon[32].� However, according to Europ�ische Stammtafeln, the husband of Aelis de Ramerupt was Conon "Falcon" de La Sarraz [Grandson], whose death is estimated to "before 1114".� If Conon died soon before that date, it is unlikely that Bouchard�s suggestion could be correct.�

 

 

GUILLAUME de Bourgogne, son of RENAUD I Comte de Bourgogne & his [first] wife Adelais de Normandie ([1024]-12 Nov 1087, bur Besan�on).� Guillaume of Jumi�ges names �Adeliz� as the first daughter of �dux Richardus� and his wife �Goiffredum Britannorum comitem...sororem...Iudith�, adding that she married �Rainaldo Burgundionum comiti� by whom she had �Willelmum et Widonem� (the marriage is recorded in a later passage)[33].� His parentage is also given by Orderic Vitalis[34].� He succeeded his father in 1057 as GUILLAUME I "le Grand" Comte de Bourgogne.� Orderic Vitalis records that for about ten years he fought his brother Guy ex-Comte de Brionne who attempted to dispossess Guillaume[35].� He was one of the princes called upon by Pope Gregory VII in 1074 to help defend St Peter's[36].� He succeeded in 1078 as Comte de M�con, when his cousin Guy [II] Comte de M�con entered holy orders.� The necrology of Besan�on Cathedral records the death �II Id Nov� of �Willelmus comes Burgundionum pater Hugonis Archiepiscopi[37].�

m ([1049/57]) ETIENNETTE, daughter of --- (-after 19 Oct 1088).� Szabolcs de Vajay[38] demonstrates that his earlier hypothesis concerning a Lotharingian origin of Etiennette is incorrect[39].� According to P�re Anselme, she was the daughter of Berenguer Ram�n I "el Curvo" Conde de Barcelona[40], but there appears to be no contemporary documentation on which this is based.� Settipani suggests that Etiennette may have been the daughter of Bernard [II] Comte de Bigorre & his first wife Cl�mence, based solely on onomastics[41], but the possible motivation for a marriage between these two families is not obvious.� Some secondary sources suggest that she was �Etiennette de Vienne�[42].� However, no documentary evidence has been found which indicates a connection between her descendants and the county of Vienne before her grandson Guillaume (who died 1155, see below), which suggests that any rights to the county were acquired by the family well after Etiennette died.� Szabolcs de Vajay attributes the error connecting Etiennette with Vienne to her epitaph, which names �Allobrogum comitissa...Stephania[43], indicating that, while the Allobroges had been a Gallic tribe living around Vienne, this archaic term was used elsewhere simply to describe the county of Burgundy[44].�

Guillaume I & his wife had [thirteen] children:�

1.         ERMENTRUDE de Bourgogne ([1050/55]-1106 or after, bur Autun Cathedral).� Her birth date is estimated from her possible marriage date, bearing in mind the probable dates of birth of her oldest children.� If it correct, it is likely that Ermentrude was one of her parents� oldest children.� "Filia Wilelmi comitis de Burgundia Hermentrudis et filii sui Fridericus, Raginaudus, Theodericus" founded the Cluniac abbey of Froidefontaine by charter dated 8 Mar 1105 in which she names "suis antecessoribus�Lodewico, Sophia eius uxore, et filiis eorum Brunone, Theoderico, Lodewico, Friderico, filiabus vero Mathilde, Sophia, Beatrice, filiis autem Theoderici atque sue uxoris Hermentrudis, Lodewico, Wilelmo, Hugone", witnessed by "Henricus de Suarca cum genero suo Gerunch, Gotefridus filius avunculi eiusdem comitis [Friderici]"[45].� The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Ermentrudem" as wife of "Theodericum [filius comiti Montionis Ludovico]" specifying that she was heiress to Montb�liard[46].� She retired to the ch�teau de Montb�liard after the death of her husband.� She subscribed a sale act of her son Renaud in 1106[47].� m ([1065]) THIERRY de Mousson, son of LOUIS Comte de Mousson & his wife Sophie of Upper Lotharingia ([1045]-1/2 Jan 1103, bur Autun Cathedral).�

2.         EUDES [Othon] de Bourgogne (-before 12 Nov 1087).� �Willelmus Burgundi� comes� donated property to Besan�on cathedral, for the souls of �mea...necnon...Fulchonis fratris mei et Ottonis filii mei�, by undated charter[48].�

3.         RENAUD de Bourgogne (-[Palestine 1097 or Summer 1101]).� "Rainaldus comes Matisconensis" made a donation to Cluny dated [1086] subscribed by "Willelmi patris mei"[49].� His father installed him in [1078] as Comte de M�con.� He succeeded his father in 1087 as RENAUD II Comte de Bourgogne.� He joined the First Crusade, appointing his younger brother Etienne as regent of Bourgogne-Comt� during his absence.� Albert of Aix records that "Reinoldo duce Burgundi�, fratre Stephani, vice ipsius Burgundiam regentis" had left for Jerusalem before the Lombard expedition, passed the winter at Antioch, and joined Welf I Duke of Bavaria on his journey to Jerusalem, but died and was buried en route[50].� If that is correct, Renaud must have died in Summer 1101.� m (before [1085], separated) REGINA [Kuniza] von Oltingen, daughter of KUNO Graf von Oltingen & his wife --- de Luxembourg (-after 12 Apr 1107).� "Regina ex prosapia non obscura�comitis Cononis filia qui frater extit Conraldi viri�in itinere Jerosolimitano defuncti, generi nimirum comitis Pictaviensis" donated property to the abbey of Marcigny-sur-Loire where she was about to become a nun, for the foundation of the priory of Aiwaille, by charter dated 1088, which states that "me maritalis jugi sarcina exoneravit" which suggests an amicable separation from her husband[51].� The charter dated 1095 under which "Guillelmus comes" donated property to Marcigny-sur-Loire names "mater mea Cuniza Cononis filia"[52].� She is named "mater mea Regina" in her son's 1107 charter which also names her father "avi ac nutritoris mei Cononis comitis"[53].� Renaud II & his wife had one child:�

a)         GUILLAUME de Bourgogne ([1085]-murdered after 3 Jan 1125).� His parentage is confirmed by the charter dated 12 Sep 1095 under which "Guillelmus comes filio Rainaldi" confirmed a donation by "mater mea Cuniza Cononis filia" to the abbey of Marcigny-sur-Loire[54].� His charter dated 1107 (see below) indicates that Guillaume was brought up by his maternal grandfather, receiving a German rather than French education, hence his subsequent nickname.� He succeeded in 1097 (when his father left on Crusade) as GUILLAUME II "l'Allemand" Comte [Palatin] de Bourgogne, Comte de M�con.� "Comes Willelmus quem vocabant Alamannum" granted concessions relating to the town of Auxerre in Macon to Cluny by charter 1106[55].� "Willelmus Burgundionum comes et Mathicensium" confirmed previous donations by "antecessores mei�Rainaldus pater meus filius Willelmi, et ipse Willelmus filius alterius Rainaldi, et ipse Rainaldus filius alterius Willelmi et�Stephanus comes patruus meus�mater mea Regina" to Cluny by charter 1107 before 13 Aug made "pro�anime�avi ac nutritoris mei Cononis comitis"[56].� Guillaume was murdered by his barons who, it is said, claimed that he had been carried away by the devil following his abuses of church property[57].� m ([1107]) AGNES von Z�hringen, daughter of BERTHOLD II Herzog von Z�hringen & his wife Agnes von Rheinfelden.� The Relatio Piis Operibus Ottonis Episcopi Bambergensis names "Agnate palatina comitissa", implying that she was sister of "Chuno dux"[58].� This is confirmed by the Gesta Friderici of Otto of Freising which names her son "Gwillehelmus�puer�ex parte patris consanguineus, Conradi vero ducis sororis filius"[59].� Guillaume II & his wife had one child:�

i)          GUILLAUME de Bourgogne ([1110]-murdered Payerne Abbey 9 Feb or 1 Mar 1127, bur Cluny Priory Nirves).� A charter of Saint-Vincent-de-M�con dated to [1126/43] refers to "post mortem comitis Willelmi et Alemani patris alterius Willelmi"[60].� The Gesta Friderici of Otto of Freising names "Gwillehelmus�puer�ex parte patris consanguineus, Conradi vero ducis sororis filius"[61].� He succeeded his father in 1125 as GUILLAUME III "l'Enfant" Comte [Palatin] de Bourgogne, Comte de M�con.� One of the Continuations of Sigebert records that "Guilelmum comitem Sedunensium" was murdered "1127 III Kal Mar" in the church of Payerne "at the instigation of demons"[62].� The Annales Sancti Disibodi record that "Wilhelmus princeps Burgundi�" was killed "a suis" in 1127[63].� The Fundatio monasterii�de Altaripa records that "pater [domini Guillelmi de Glana] Petrus et frater suus Guillelmus de Glana" were killed "V Id Feb�apud Paterniacum" in 1126 "cum�comes Viennensi qui etiam comes Solodorensis et dominus Salinensis" and that they were all buried "in prioratu Cluniacensi�in insula�in lacu de Nirvez"[64].� After his death, his maternal uncle Konrad I Herzog von Z�hringen claimed the county of Burgundy, and Lothar von S�pplingenburg King of Germany conferred the territory on him[65].�

4.         [GUILLAUME de Bourgogne (-before 1090).� He is named in Europ�ische Stammtafeln[66] as the third son of Comte Guillaume but the primary source on which this is based has not been identified.]�

5.         GUY de Bourgogne (Ch�teau de Quingey [1060]-Rome 13 Dec 1124, bur Rome Lateran Church).� Orderic Vitalis names his father[67], his parentage being confirmed by his own reference to his brother Hugues Archbishop of Besan�on in his letters[68].� William of Tyre specifies that Pope Calixtus II was previously named "Guido", but does not specify his origin other than calling him "secundum carnem nobilis" and stating that he was "consanguineus" of Emperor Heinrich V[69].� The birth order of the children of Guillaume I Comte Palatin de Bourgogne is uncertain.� Most authorities place Guy after his brother Hugues, but if his supposed birth date is correct Guy must have been one of the older sons.� Archbishop of Vienne 1088.� Administrator of Besan�on 1107/09.� A fierce critic of Pope Pascal II's capitulation to Emperor Heinrich V concerning the right to appoint bishops, Guy presided over a synod at Vienne in Sep 1112 which declared the practice of lay investiture heretic and excommunicated the emperor.� He was elected Pope CALIXTUS II by a small group of cardinals, crowned at Vienne 9 Feb 1119, his election being ratified in Rome retrospectively 1 Mar 1119.� After an attempt to negotiate a compromise with the emperor, he confirmed the prohibition of lay investiture at Reims 29/30 Oct 1119, moving on to Rome which he entered triumphantly 3 Jun 1120.� He besieged Sutri in Apr 1121 and forced the surrender of anti-Pope Gregory VIII, whom he humiliated by parading him on a camel through Rome.� From a position of power, he was able to negotiate the end to the emperor's right of spiritual investiture, while maintaining his own right of temporal investiture, agreed in the Concordat of Worms 23 Sep 1122 and ratified by the First Lateran Council in Mar 1123.� The Series Episcoporum Viennensium records the death "1124 XIV Kal Ian" of "sanctus Guido frater Stephani Burgundie principis", specifying that he had been elected archbishop of Vienne in 1088 and was buried in Rome "in ecclesia Lateranensi"[70].�

6.         ETIENNE [I] "T�te-Hardie" de Bourgogne (-murdered Ascalon 27 May 1102).� He and his brothers Raimond and Hugues called themselves sons of the "most noble count William" in a late-11th century document[71].� He succeeded in [1087] as Comte de M�con, Seigneur de Varasque.� Albert of Aix records that "Reinoldo duce Burgundi�, fratre Stephani, vice ipsius Burgundiam regentis" left for Jerusalem, indicating that his brother Etienne was appointed regent in the county of Burgundy in his place[72].� Etienne joined the Crusade some time after the death of his brother.� Albert of Aix records that "Stephanus�dux Burgundi�" joined the Lombard contingent on the second wave of the First Crusade, dated to late 1100 from the context[73].� He commanded troops with Etienne Comte de Blois which were defeated by the Turks at Marsivam.� William of Tyre records the presence at the second capture of Tortosa in 1102 of "Stephanus comes Burgundi�"[74].� Albert of Aix records that "Conradus, Arpinus, Stephanus Blesensis itemque Stephanus de Burgundia" were captured at Ramla after being burned in a tower, and that "Stephano itemque Stephano" were beheaded, dated to mid-1102 from the context[75].� m ([1090]) BEATRIX de Lorraine, daughter of GERARD IV Duke of Upper Lotharingia [Lorraine] & his wife Hadwide --- (-[1116/17]).� "Stephanus comes Burgundie et dominus de Treva" donated property to Cluny by charter dated [1100] in which he refers to his wife as "filia ducis Lotharingie" but does not name her[76].� The primary source which names her has not yet been identified.� Etienne I & his wife had four children:�

a)         ISABELLE de M�con ([1090/95]-after 1125).� The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Elizabeth sororem comitis Raynaldi de Burgundia" as wife of "Hugo comes Campanie"[77], but the primary source which confirms their precise parentage has not yet been identified.� m ([1110], repudiated) as his second wife, HUGUES de Blois Comte de Troyes, son of THIBAUT III Comte de Blois & his third wife Alix de Valois ([1074]-Palestine 14 Jun 1126).�

8.         RAYMOND de Bourgogne ([1070]-Grajal 13/20 Sep 1107, bur Santiago de Compostela, Cathedral Santiago el Mayor).� The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Raymundem in Hispania comitem" as brother of "Hugo�Bisuntinensis archiepiscopus", when recording the latter's appointment as archbishop[97], although in a later passage the same source records "comitis Raymundi" as "fratris comitis Pontii de Tolosa"[98] which is inconsistent with other sources.� "Wilelmus comes Burgundie" names "Rainaldi et Raimundi filiorum meorum" in his donation to Cluny dated [1086][99].� "Raymundus�Burgundie comes filius Willermi�comitis" donated property to Saint-B�nigne de Dijon by charter dated to [1087/92] subscribed by "Hugonis archiepiscopi Bisuntini fratris mei, Stephani comitis fratris mei"[100].� Comte d'Amous.� He joined the expedition of the Eudes I Duke of Burgundy to Spain in 1086/87, following a call from the abbey of Cluny to fight "the infidel"[101].� Reilly suggests that he was betrothed after the failure to capture Tudela in Summer 1087, when he speculates that the Burgundians would have visited the court of Castile[102].� Raymond remained in Castile following his betrothal to Infanta Urraca.� "Raymondus gener regis" confirmed the donation by "Adefonsus�Hispaniarum rex�cum coniuge mea Constantia regina" of property to the monastery of San Salvador de O�a by charter dated 1 May 1092[103].� Conde de Galicia y Coimbra [before 1093], his father-in-law transferred the newly acquired cities of Lisbon, Santar�m and Cintra to him in May 1093.� Governor of the city of Toledo.� He made a mutual pact [Dec 1094/Jul 1095] with Henri de Bourgogne, Conde de Portugal, pledging to grant him Toledo (or in default, Galicia) in return for his support in securing Castile and Le�n for Raimond[104].� Conde de Grajal Jan 1098[105].� "Raimundus comes frater comitis Stephani" donated property to Cluny by charter dated [1100][106].� He established his principal stronghold in the castle of Grajal in 1102[107].� By this time, Raymond had acquired a commanding position in Castile as husband of the heir presumptive to the throne.� A funeral elegy of "domnus Raymundus comes Hispanie qui de stirpe comitum Burgundie ortus" is recorded in the cartulary of Saint-B�nigne-de-Dijon in a charter dated 20 Sep 1107 which names "Hugo frater suus Bisuntinus archiepiscopus"[108].� m (betrothed [Summer 1087], Toledo [1 May 1092/Jan 1093]) as her first husband, Infanta do�a URRACA de Castilla y Le�n, daughter of ALFONSO VI King of Castile and Le�n & his third wife Constance de Bourgogne [Capet] (late 1080[109]-Salda�a 8 Mar 1126, bur Le�n, Monastery of San Isidoro).� Condesa de Galicia 1093.� She succeeded her father in 1109 as URRACA I Queen of Castile and Le�n.�

10.      GISELE de Bourgogne ([1075]-after 1133).� Her parentage is deduced from Suger saying that her daughter Adelaide, wife of Louis VI "le Gros" King of France, was the niece of Pope Calixtus II[111].� This is corroborated by "Guido Viennensis archiepiscopus" (later Pope Calixtus II) addressing a letter to "nepoti suo Amedeo comiti" (Am�d�e III Comte de Savoie, son of Gis�le by her first marriage) dated [1115][112].� Her date of birth is estimated from her having given birth to five children by her second husband whom she married in [1105], and assuming that she was no more than 17 years old when she gave birth to her first child by her first husband.� Her second marriage is confirmed by Orderic Vitalis who records the marriage of Guillaume de Normandie and the daughter of Raniero III Marchese di Monferrato, naming both the bride's parents and specifying that the marriage was arranged by the bride's uterine half-sister, Ad�la�de de Maurienne Queen of France[113].� m firstly ([1090]) HUMBERT II "le Renforc�" Comte de Maurienne et de Savoie, son of AMEDEE II Comte de Savoie Marchese di Susa & his wife Jeanne [de Gen�ve] ([1072]-Mo�tiers 19 Oct 1103, bur Mo�tiers).� Marchese di Turino 1094.� m secondly ([1105]) RANIERI Marchese di Monferrato, son of GUGLIELMO III Marchese di Ravenna & his second wife Otta di Agledo (-[1135/37]).�

11.      CLEMENCE de Bourgogne ([1078]-[1133]).� "Clementie Flandrarum comitisse" is named as wife of "Robertus iunior" in the Cartulaire de Saint-Bertin[114].� Orderic Vitalis names her as wife of Count Robert but does not give her origin[115].� Her origin is confirmed by the Genealogica Comitum Flandri� Bertiniana which names "Clementiam filiam Willelmi comitis Burgundionum cognomento Testahardith" as wife of "Rodbertus Rodberti filius"[116].� Clemence could not have been born much later than 1078, given the birth of her first child (by her first husband) in 1093.� She was appointed regent in Flanders during the absence of her first husband on crusade[117].� She promoted the monastic movement and introduced Cluniac rule into several abbeys in Flanders[118].� She founded Bourbourg Abbey with her first husband in [1103].� "Balduinus Flandrensium comes et Clementia comitissa" confirmed the donation of the church of Saint-Bertin to Cluny made by "dominus meus Rotbertus comes", by charter 12 Apr 1112[119].� She opposed the succession in 1119 of Count Charles, supporting the candidature of Guillaume d'Ypres[120].� The primary source which confirms her second marriage has not yet been identified.� The Cartulaire de Saint-Bertin records the death in [1133] of "Clementia Roberti iunioris vidua" and specifies that "eatenus pene terciam partem Flandrie dotis loco tenuit"[121], although it is curious that this does not refer to her second husband who was still alive when his wife died.� m firstly (before 1092) ROBERT de Flandres, son of ROBERT I "le Frison" Count of Flanders & his wife Gertrud von Sachsen (1065-5 Oct 1111).� He succeeded his father in 1093 as ROBERT II Count of Flanders.� m secondly ([1125]) as his second wife, GODEFROI V Duke of Lower Lotharingia, Comte de Louvain, son of HENRI II Comte de Louvain & his wife Adela [van Betuwe en Teisterbant] (-25 Jan 1139, bur Afflighem Abbey).�

12.      [ETIENNETTE] de Bourgogne .� Her origin is confirmed by her husband Lambert Fran�ois naming "filium�Raynaldum�nepotem archiepiscopi Guidonis" in a charter dated 1095[122].� Guy de Bourgogne, after his election as Pope Calixtus II sent a letter to Diego Bishop of Compostela recommending "Robertum Franciscum levirum suum" for a mission, "Robertum" presumably being a copyist's error for "Lambertum"[123].� The primary source which confirms her name has not yet been identified.� m LAMBERT FRAN�OIS de Valence Seigneur de Royans, de Peyrins et de Chabeuil, son of HUGUES Comte de Valence & his wife Adalasie de Peyrins.� 1097/1125.�

13.      [BERTHE de Bourgogne (-early Jan 1100, bur Sahag�n, Le�n, royal monastery of Santos Facundo y Primitivo).� The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Berta, who was of Tuscan descent" ("Bertam Tuscia oriundam") as the third of the "five legitimate wives" of King Alfonso[124].Las cr�nicas an�nimas de Sahag�n refer to her as "otra mugger de la nacion de Lombardia llamada Berta".� The precise origin of Berthe is not known.� According to Europ�ische Stammtafeln[125], she was the daughter of Guillaume I Comte [Palatin] de Bourgogne, Comte de Vienne et de Macon, which is inconsistent with the "Tuscan descent" reported in the Chronicon Regum Legionensium.� Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that she was the daughter of Guillaume Comte de Bourgogne[126].� Reilly does not mention this possible Burgundian origin of Berthe, implying that the Castilian king chose his third wife from outside the Burgundian circle in order to diminish the influence of the Burgundians at court.� As Berthe de Bourgogne would have been the sister of Raymond de Bourgogne who married Infanta do�a Urraca, oldest legitimate daughter of King Alfonso, around the same time that King Alfonso married Queen Berta, it is surprising that the chronicles do not refer to this relationship if it is correct. The references to "Tuscia" and "Lombardia" in the chronicles could be consistent with the family of Bourgogne [Comt�] having originated in northern Italy, their ancestors being Marchesi of Ivrea until 968, although this was nearly 130 years before the date of Queen Berta's marriage.� Reilly dates this marriage to "during the Christmas season of 1094", but does not state his source[127].� In a later passage, Reilly states that the first reference to Berta as queen is dated 28 Apr 1095[128].� According to Reilly, Queen Berta died shortly after the new year 1100, probably before 16 Jan[129].� In another passage, he notes that the last notice of her is dated 17 Nov 1099[130].� She was dead in 25 Jan 1100, the date of the charter under which "Adefonsus�Toletani imperii rex" donated the churches of "Sancti Facundi et Sancti Primitivi�cum sua villa�Villaverde", ceded by "comitis Monini Fernandis�in vita sua dederam uxori mee Berte regine", to Cluny, confirmed by "Raimundus totius Gallecie comes et gener regis, Urraca soror regis, Urraca regis filia et Raimundi comitis uxor, Enricus Portugalensis comes, uxor ipsius Tarasia filia regis�"[131].� m ([Dec] 1094) as his fourth wife, ALFONSO VI King of Castile and Leon, son of FERNANDO I "el Magno" King of Castile and Le�n & his wife do�a Sancha de Le�n (Compostela [1037]-Toledo 30 Jun 1109, bur Sahag�n, Le�n, San Mancio chapel in the royal monastery of Santos Facundo y Primitivo).]�
