The territories of the counts of Savoylay within the southern part of the Welf kingdom of Burgundy and, later, innorth-west Italy. The development of the kingdom of Burgundy, and the rise ofthe nobility within its territory, is discussed in the Introduction to theBURGUNDY KINGDOM group of documents. The county of Savoy (Saboia,pagusSavogiensis) was situated in the north-east part of the diocese of Grenoble, although no specific reference has been found in primary sources to counts inthis area before the 11th century. The family of the counts of Savoyfirst acquired power in the central part of the Burgundian kingdom during thelatter part of the reign of King Rudolf III, when the Comtes de Genève and the Comtes d'Albon were also emerging as local power forces in the area.

Humbert [I] Comtede Maurienne served Emperor Konrad II, after the emperor inherited the kingdom of Burgundy following the death in 1032 of King Rudolf III, and was rewardedwith the grant of Chablais and Saint-Maurice en Valley. Humbert collectedvarious dispersed territories in the area south of Lake Geneva, especially inthe ecclesiastical dioceses of Belley, Aosta, Maurienne and Tarentasia. Comte Humbert's landholdings were gradually expanded by his descendants and unitedunder a single government. The most important step in this process was themarriage of Humbert's son Odon to Adelaida, heiress of the marquisate of Susa, whose territories extended between the Alps and the River Po (including Auriate, Turin, Ivrea and Aosta) and as far as the Mediterranean coast between Ventimiglia andAlbenga, and also included control of the Alpine passes of Mont-Cenis andSaint-Bernard[1]. The Savoy family's fortunes were favoured by the marriage in 1066 of Odon'sdaughter Berthe to Heinrich IV King of Germany. The family lost control ofmuch of the territories of the marquisate after the death in 1091 of MarchesaAdelaida. The counts of Savoy retained only the valley of Susaitself, although they continued to title themselves "Marchesi ofItaly" in primary sources during the following centuries. After the lossof these Italian possessions, Comte Humbert II turned his attention westwardsby strengthening relations with the Capetian kingdom of France,his daughter eventually marrying Louis VI King of France. Humbert II´s son ComteAmedée III recovered the county of Turin, although his own son Comte Humbert III was banished and his lands confiscated after he quarelled with Emperor Friedrich I "Barbarossa". A settlement between the county of Savoy and the emperor was brokered by Guglielmo V Marchese di Monferrato,who acted as regent for the minor Comte Thomas I after the death of Humbert III. Comte Thomas further expanded the family's territories northwards intoVaud in present-day Switzerland and eastwards to Piemonte in northern Italy. He also bought the town of Chambéry in Savoie. He appears to have been thefirst member of the family to use the title "Comte de Savoie".

Emperor Friedrich II appointed ComteAmedée IV as Imperial Vicar in northern Italy, and also created him Duke ofChablais and Aosta, although this title lapsed after Amedée IV died in 1253. The family of the counts of Savoy extended their influence to Englandfollowing the marriage in 1236 of Eléonore de Provence (whose mother was thedaughter of Thomas I Comte de Savoie) to Henry III King of England. The English king's inability to control his wife's foreign relations was a factorwhich contributed to conflicts with his barons, which ultimately led to civilwar. Comte Pierre II increased the Savoy family's territories by acquiringland in western Switzerland, mainly at the expense of the Comtes de Genève. Comte Amedée V, older surviving son of Comte Thomas II,was chosen to succeed his father, in place of the infant son of his deceasedolder brother. To pacify family ambitions, he divided the family´slandholdings, installed his nephew in Turin and Pinerolo, and his youngerbrother Louis in Vaud, although Thomas II retained overall suzerainty overthese territories. Vaud was reunited with the main line of the counts of Savoyin 1359, and Piemonte in 1418. Faucigny was transferred to Savoy in 1355 underthe terms of the Treaty of Paris agreed with Jean II King of France, which also confirmed the frontier between Savoy and Dauphiné. ComteAmedée VII acquired Nice in 1388, and Comte Amedée VIII was confirmed as comte de Genève in 1410. Comte Amedée VIII was created duke of Savoy by SigmundKing of Germany in 1417.

Research into the family of the counts of Savoyis complicated by the loss of original primary source documentation in the12th, 13th and 14th centuries. The Germans burnt the archives of the castlesof Susa, Avellana and Turin at different times, including an episode in 1174when Emperor Friedrich I "Barbarossa" burnt all the title deeds ofthe house of Savoy[2]. In 1536, the Bernese destroyed documentation when they invaded Vaud, Chablaisand Faucigny[3]. Other material was lost in various accidental fires at the castle of Chambéry[4]. Nevertheless, some interesting new details concerning the family have beenincorporated into this document from information which is available in theon-line inventory of the State Archives of Turin[5]. Unfortunately, since compiling the earlier version of the presentdocument, the State Archives of Turin have changed their website. The newwebsite no longer includes the reference numbers for citing particulardocuments which are included in the footnotes below[6]. It is suggested that anyone wishing to check entries shouldsearch the new website using the words in the extracts which I quote (“Ricerca”in the top right corner of the webpage cited below). It has also come to lightthat some of the entries in the index of the Archives are inaccurate. Asalways, it is recommended that the original documents should be consulted incases of doubt.

Chapter 1. COMTES de SAVOIE [1060]-1417

A. COMTES de MAURIENNE, COMTES de CHABLAIS

The origins of Humbert [I] "blancismanibus" Comte de Maurienne, first known ancestor of the counts of Savoy,are unproven. Alternative theories have been proposed:

· Manteyer suggests that he was descended fromGarnier Comte de Troyes (see the document CHAMPAGNE NOBILITY), whose son Huguesmay have received part of the county of Vienne, and whose own son Humbert hasbeen postulated (probably incorrectly) as the father of comte Humbert [I][7].

· Previté-Orton prefers the theory of descent fromthe local family headed by Amedée Comte [de Belley] (see the document BURGUNDYKINGDOM NOBILITY), who was living in [977][8]. A link between these two groups of families is suggested by thevarious donations of property in the county of Belley made by Humbert [I] andhis descendants.

· descent from the first kings of Provence. This proposition is based only on a manuscript note written by d´Hozier in 1675,in a copy of Guichenon´sHistoire généalogique de la maison de Savoielater deposited at the Bibliothèque nationale in Paris, which states that"les chartes qui établissent la descendance de la Maison de Savoie desrois de Provence sont dans les Cartulaires de Saint-Maurice à Vienne"[9]. Presumably such alleged descent would be through CharlesConstantin Comte de Vienne, son of Louis King [of Provence], about whose twosons nothing is known apart from their names (see the document PROVENCE). No reference to such charters is found in the commentary on the cartulary ofVienne Saint-Maurice published by Ulysse Chevalier, or in the handful ofcharters themselves which he reproduced[10]. It must be assumed that, if such documentation ever existed, ithas since disappeared.

· son of "Béraud". The book ofanniversaries of the church of Aosta includes an entry dated 1040 the datingclause of which notes "regnante et principante in Valle nostra AugustæSalassorum Umberto P. Maurianensi filio illustris Beroldi de Saxonia"[11]. This is the origin favoured by Guichenon after reviewing numerousalternative theories. In addition to "tradition" in the family, hebases his conclusion on an anachronistic heraldic argument and a supposedcommon connection with St Maurice. He identifies Béraud with"Berthold" who is named in two charters of Rudolf III King of Burgundy dated 1016 and 1018 (see the document BURGUNDY KINGDOM NOBILITY). Guichenon alsolaunches into highly speculative conjecture about the precise origin of Béraudin the families of Widukind and Emperor Otto I (set out in the document SAXONYDUKES) which is not worth summarising[12]. Assuming that the Aosta entry is factually correct (it is assumedthat it is not contemporary), the reference to "Saxonia" mayrepresent an imperfect transcription. It is not therefore impossible that Humbertwas the son of a local "comte Béraud" who is otherwise unrecorded.

It is also possible that Humbert [I] wasrelated to Ermengarde, second wife of Rudolf III King of Burgundy, whoappointed him as her representative in administrative dealings relating to herterritorial holdings after her husband died. If this is correct, the familyrelationship cannot be traced as Queen Ermengarde´s parentage is not known,although the fact that Humbert [I]´s possible sister was also named Ermengarde(see BURGUNDY KINGDOM NOBILITY) may also indicate a family connection.

HUMBERT, son of --- ([970/75]-1 Jul [1047/51], bur Saint-Jean de Maurienne). ["Umberto comitis et uxoris suæ"signed the charter dated 4 Apr 1003 under which Eudes Bishop of Belley grantedland "in pago Gratiopolitano in agro Salmojacense"[13]. It is not certain whether this charter relates to Humbert[I] "blancis manibus" Comte de Maurienne or to his supposedmaternal uncle Humbert Comte [de Belley].] "Rodolfusrex" jointly with "…comitibus Rodulpho et Uberto"gave the castle of Moras to "Umberto episcopo eiusque matri domineFreburgie et nepotibus eius, Wigonis bone memorie filiis, Umberto WigoniWillelmo" by charter dated 6 Jun 1009[14]. "Domni Umberti comes, Lambertus comes…"witnessed the charter dated 1 Apr 1018 under which "Ratcherius"confirmed a donation to "Sancti Petri Romani monasterio"[15]. Lanter Bishop of Langres granted property"in comitatu Genevensi et pago Albonensi in villa…Casei",except for that part held by "Ermengardis regina", to "nostroamico Humberto comiti et duobus heredibus filiis eius…unus…Amedeus et alterBurchardus episcopus" for life, by charter dated 8 Apr 1022[16]. "Ermengardis, domini Rodulphi regis coniux"founded the monastery of Talloires "in pago Albanense in villa…Talueris",with the advice of "…comitis Umberti", by charter dated to[1025], signed by "Umberti comitis…"[17]. "Donnus Ubertus comes" exchanged property with"Dominum Brocardum Episcopum Augustensis" by charter dated 16Nov [1026][18]. "Ermengart regina" donated "duos mansos inpago Genevense" to Cluny, for the soul of her late husband Rudolf IIIKing of Burgundy, acting "per advocatum meum comitum Humbertum",by charter dated to [1033/48][19]. It is assumed that this document refers to Comte Humbert, although this is notbeyond all doubt. Saint-Genis (who assumes that theco-identity is correct) suggests that the use of the term "advocatum"in this document indicates that Humbert was administrator of royal lands onlyand was not a direct fiefholder himself[20]. If this is correct, the title "comes" would havebeen honorary, linked to his royal appointment rather than territorialholdings. At first sight the hypothesis of Saint-Genis appears attractivebecause, if Humbert held no county, his parentage may have been obscure, whichcould account for the difficulties in tracing his origin. However, thereappears no reason why Humbert could not have held comital jurisdiction over aspecific territory at the same time as an appointment as "advocatus"of the queen in relation to her own property. In any case, all the earlierdocuments quoted here confirm that Humbert held full comital status, althoughnone of them specify his geographical jurisdiction (which is not unusual forearly 11th century charters). His appointment by Queen Ermengarde as herrepresentative may indicate a family relationship between the two, which cannotnow be traced as the queen´s parentage is not known. "Amedeus filiusUberti comitis et Adaelgida uxor mea" donated "ecclesia S.Mauricii…in pago…Maltacena" to the priory of Bourget by charter dated22 Oct 1030, signed by "Uberti comitis, Anciliæ uxoris eius, Amedeicomitis, Adilæ uxoris eius…Rodulphi regis, reginæ Ermengardis, Odonis, Antelmi"[21]. Humbert recognised the suzerainty ofEmperor Konrad II, to whom King Rudolf III bequeathed the kingdom of Burgundyin 1032, and fought against Eudes II Comte de Blois who challenged theemperor´s succession[22]. The emperor invested Humbert with Chablais and Saint-Maurice en Valley in 1034as a reward for his services[23]. From this time, he is taken to have becomeHUMBERT I"blancismanibus/of the White Hands"Comte de Maurienne, Comte deChablais. His nickname appeared for the first time in the 14th centuryChronicle of Hautecombe[24]. According to Szabolcs de Vajay, the popular version is a misreading of "blancismoenibus/of the White fortresses"[25]. Saint-Genis suggests that the nickname should be considered theequivalent of "clean hands", indicating Humbert´s honesty inadministrative dealings[26]. "Domnum Humbertum comitem et filium eius Amadeum"are named as present in the charter dated 1037 which records the foundation ofthe priory of Bugey[27]. "Hubertus comes" donated property to the canons of Saint-Jeanand Saint-Urse by charter dated 1040, signed and consented to by "Oddo,Amedeus comes, Aymo Sedunensis episcopus, Brochardus filius Huberti comitis,Petrus marchio filius Odonis marchionis et commitissæ"[28]. "Domnus Upertus comes"is named in a charter relating to a church "in loco Scalas quodantiquitus vocatur Lavastrone" dated 21 Jan 1042, signed by "Brochardiarchiepiscopi, Aimoni episcopi, Ameei, Oddoni, Orlini et filiorum eius Wigoni,Anselmi, Rostagni, Bornoni…Rostagni"[29]. "Umbertus comes et filii mei Amedeus et Oddo"donated the church "in pago qui antiquitus vocatur Lavastrone…Scalas inepiscopati Gratianopolitano" to the abbey of Saint-Chaffre by charterdated 10 Jun 1042, signed by "Brochardi archiepiscopi, Amedei comitis,Oddonis, Bornonis, Aureliani, Rostagni"[30]. "Humbertus comes et Theobaldusepiscopus Maurianensis" donated property to the canons of Saint-Jeanby charter dated 14 Jun 1046, signed by "Aimonis nepotis eius, Ioannis,Berillonis, Odonis"[31]. "Domni Huberti comitis…" subscribed the charter of"Aymo" (his presumedgrandson) dated [1046][32].

m ([995/1000])AUXILIA,daughter ofANSELM & his wife Aldiud ---. "Amedeus filius Uberti comitis etAdaelgida uxor mea" donated "ecclesia S. Mauricii…inpago…Maltacena" to the priory of Bourget by charter dated 22 Oct 1030,signed by "Uberti comitis, Anciliæ uxoris eius, Amedei comitis, Adilæuxoris eius…Rodulphi regis, reginæ Ermengardis, Odonis, Antelmi"[33]. The parentage of Auxilia is deduced fromher son Burchard being described by Rodolfus Glaber asnepos of BurchardArchbishop of Lyon[34],who was the illegitimate son of Conrad I King of Burgundy and his mistressAldiud. Aldiud was the wife of Anselm, this couple presumably being Auxilia´sparents. Her parentage is also suggested by thecharter dated 12 Jun 1052 under which her son "Aimo, Sedun…episcopus"donated property, inherited from "avunculo meo comite Oudolrico…invillam…Ursaria", to the church of Sion "per manum advocatismei comitis Oudalrici"[35]. Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that CountHumbert had two wives: firstly "---, sister of Graf Ulrich [vonLenzburg]" and secondly "Auxilia, relative of Saint Odilon de Mercœurabbé de Cluny"[36]. Europäische Stammtafeln shows only one wife "Auxiliavon Lenzburg"[37],in an amalgam of these two proposed wives. None of the sources so farconsulted in the preparation of the present document suggest that Humbert hadtwo wives. Until more information comes to light, the simpler solution hasbeen adopted in this document. The primary sourcewhich indicatesAuxilia's relationship with the Mercœurfamily (see the document AUVERGNE) has not yet been identified.

Comte Humbert & his wife had fourchildren:

1. AMEDEE ([995/1000] or after-after 18 Dec 1051). Lanter Bishop of Langresgranted property "in comitatu Genevensi et pago Albonensi invilla…Casei", except for that part held by "Ermengardis regina",to "nostro amico Humberto comiti et duobus heredibus filiiseius…unus…Amedeus et alter Burchardus episcopus" for life, by charterdated 8 Apr 1022[38]. "Amedeus filius Uberti comitis et Adaelgida uxor mea" donated"ecclesia S. Mauricii…in pago…Maltacena" to the priory ofBourget by charter dated 22 Oct 1030, signed by "Uberti comitis,Anciliæ uxoris eius, Amedei comitis, Adilæ uxoris eius…Rodulphi regis, reginæErmengardis, Odonis, Antelmi"[39]. "Domnum Humbertum comitem et filium eius Amadeum"are named as present in the charter dated 1037 which records the foundation ofthe priory of Bugey[40]. "Amedeus comes et uxor mea Adela" donated "hereditatenostra in comitatu Bellicensi in villa Carnitus" to Cluny by undatedcharter[41]. "Hubertus comes" donated property to the canons of Saint-Jeanand Saint-Urse by charter dated 1040, signed and consented to by "Oddo,Amedeus comes, Aymo Sedunensis episcopus, Brochardus filius Huberti comitis,Petrus marchio filius Odonis marchionis et commitissæ"[42]. "Amedeus comes et uxor mea Adela" donatedproperty "in comitatu Belicensi in villa Larnitus" to Clunyby charter dated 1036[43]. "Domni Amedeicomitis…" subscribedthe charter of his presumed nephew dated [1046][44]. He succeeded his father in [1047/51] asAMEDEE I "laQueue"Comte de Maurienne et de Chablais. Hisnickname was acquired after he refused to enter the presence of EmperorHeinrich III at Verona after his retinue ("queue") was refusedentry[45]. "Amedeus comes Belicensium" donated property "mansumCavanerii" to the church of Belley by charter dated to [1031/60][46]. m ([1030])ADELAIS, daughter of ---. "Amedeusfilius Uberti comitis et Adaelgida uxor mea" donated "ecclesiaS. Mauricii…in pago…Maltacena" to the priory of Bourget by charterdated 22 Oct 1030, signed by "Uberti comitis, Anciliæ uxoris eius,Amedei comitis, Adilæ uxoris eius…Rodulphi regis, reginæ Ermengardis, Odonis,Antelmi"[47]. "Amedeus comes et uxor mea Adela" donated "hereditatenostra in comitatu Bellicensi in villa Carnitus" to Cluny by undatedcharter[48]. Comte Amedée I & his wife had [two] children:

a) HUMBERT (-before 1051). His parentage is confirmedby the undated charter under which "Comes Amedeus et Adela uxor eius"donated property to the monastery of Saint-Maurice, for the repose of "Ubertifilii"[49].

b) [AYMON(-[1050]). "Aymo Bellicensis episcopus" refers to property"ecclesiæ S. Ioannis Baptistæ" held by "pater nosterAmedeus", by undated charter[50]. Carutti suggests that Aymon Bishop of Belley was the son of AmedéeComte [de Belley], recorded in the last quarter of the 10th century (see thedocument BURGUNDY KINGDOM NOBILITY-BRESSE & BUGEY)[51]. Bishop of Belley [1032]. A manuscript note attached to anundated charter, under which "Amedeus…comes et fratres mei, unacumgenitrice nostra Gisla" donated property to the church of Belley"per nostros advocatos…comitem Aimonem Genevensem et Widonem deMirabello", for the soul of "patris nostri Humberti comitis",states that "Hic Amadeus comes erat Belicensis pater Aimonis episcopi…"[52]. This note is incorrect as the donor under this charter was AmedéeIII Comte de Maurienne who lived about a century after Comte Amedée I. It isnot known whether this is the only authority for asserting that Aymon Bishop ofBelley was the son of Amedée I. If that is the case, the "proof" isshaky at best.]

2. BURCHARD ([995/1000] or after-after 10 Jul 1068). Lanter Bishop of Langres granted property"in comitatu Genevensi et pago Albonensi in villa…Casei",except for that part held by "Ermengardis regina", to "nostroamico Humberto comiti et duobus heredibus filiis eius…unus…Amedeus et alterBurchardus episcopus" for life, by charter dated 8 Apr 1022[53]. Bishop of Aosta . "Brocardu epm" [Bishop ofAosta] approved a donation by "Katelmus" by charter dated 19Oct 1025, signed by "domni Umbertus comes"[54]. Rodolfus Glaber names "Burcardi nepos eiusdem equivocus",referring to Burchard Archbishop of Lyon who was an illegitimate son of ConradI King of Burgundy by his mistress Aldiud wife of Anselm, when recording thatthe second Burchard "deserted his own see of Aosta in order rashly toseize Lyon"[55]. Coadjutor of Aosta. Provost of Saint-Maurice d'Agaune. Archbishop of Lyon 1030,deposed. Radulfus Glaber records that “Burcardinepos, eiusdem æquivocus” left “sede propria Augustanæ civitatis”and imposed himself as archbishop of Lyon after the death of archbishopBurchard in 1033, and that "Burchardus III Archiep. Lugd. olim August.Episc." was captured by imperial troops and sent into exile in 1034[56]. "Hubertus comes" donatedproperty to the canons of Saint-Jean and Saint-Urse by charter dated 1040,signed and consented to by "Oddo, Amedeus comes, Aymo Sedunensisepiscopus, Brochardus filius Huberti comitis, Petrus marchio filius Odonismarchionis et commitissæ"[57].

"Oddo et uxor mea Adalaicis…et filii mei Petrus Admedeus etfilie mee" donated churches to Oulx by charter dated May 1057[70]. The importance of the family's role incontemporary European politics is demonstrated by the marriage of Comte Oddon's daughter to the future king of Germany. The necrology of San Andreodi Torino records the death"XIV Kal Feb"of "Dnis Oddonis Marchionis"[71].

m ([1046]) as her third husband,ADELAIDA di Susa,Marchesa di Susa, widow firstly ofHERMANNIV Duke of Swabia and secondly ofENRICO Marchesedi Monferrato, daughter of MANFREDO UDALRICO Marchese di Susa & hiswife Berta degli Obertenghi (Turin 1020-Canischio in Canavese 27 Dec 1091, burTurin, cathedral of San Giovanni).

Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by the charter dated 26Oct 1078 under which "Agnes filia quondam Guillelmi Pictaviensiscomitis et relicta…marchionis Petri" donated property to Pinerolo[90]. Agnes´s father is not identified more precisely in any documentwhich has so far been identified. However, the reference to "quondam"in the 26 Oct 1078 charter excludes Guillaume VIII Duke of Aquitaine who wasstill alive at that date. Duke Guillaume VI, who died in 1038, is alsoprobably excluded, as Agnes would have been over 26 years old at the time ofher marriage if she had been his daughter, which seems improbable as noblegirls often married when aged 12 to 15 at the time. Duke Guillaume VII istherefore left as the most likely candidate to be Agnes´s father. According toEuropäische Stammtafeln[91], Agneswas the widow of Ramiro I King of Aragon. Szabolcs de Vajay states that thewife of King Ramiro was the daughter of Guillaume VI Duke of Aquitaine not of Duke Guillaume VII, although no source is cited to support this[92]. From an onomastic point of view, it is surprising that a daughterof Duke Guillaume VI would have been named Agnes. The name appears only in thefamily of the Comtes de Poitou after the third marriage of Duke Guillaume Vwith Agnes de Mâcon [Bourgogne-Comté], whereas Duke Guillaume VIwas the son of Duke Guillaume V's first marriage. "Adalegidacometissa filia Maginfredi marchionis et relicta quond. Oddonis idemquemarchionis" donated property to the monastery at Taurini, in thepresence of "domne Agnetis comitissæ, filiæ Wilelmi comitis et relictæquondam Petri marchionis", for the souls of "Maginfredipatris, Adalrici Astensis episcopi patrui, Berthæ matris et Petri marchionisfilii predictæ comitissæ Adalegidæ", by charter dated 4 Jul 1079[93]. "Adalasia comitissa cum nuru suaAgneta et filia eius Agnete" donated property to "ecclesiæ S.Mariæ…Astensis episcopatus" by charter dated 18 Jun 1089[94]. Comte PierreI & his wife had [three] children:

a) AGNESde Savoie ([1066/70]-after 13 Mar 1110). "Adalasia comitissa cumnuru sua Agneta et filia eius Agnete" donated property to "ecclesiæS. Mariæ…Astensis episcopatus" by charter dated 18 Jun 1089[95]. Her birth date is estimated from the marriage date of herparents, her mother's estimated birth date, and the fact that Agnesherself gave birth to three children before her husband died in 1091."Agnes filia Petri marchionis et relicta olim Friderici"donated property to the monastery of Cavorre by charter dated 1091[96]. She became a nun after her husband died. She was still alive in1100[97]. Pope Pascal II confirmed a donation to the monastery of Fruttuaria SanBenedetto by"Agnete comitissa, Petrimarchionis filia" by charter dated 13 Mar 1110[98]. m (Turin May 1080)FRIEDRICH Graf, Herr von Lützelburg,son of LOUIS de Mousson châtelain de Montbéliard & his wife Sophie of UpperLotharingia heiress of Bar (-29 Jun 1091, bur [Canossa]). He was a powerfullord in Swabia who supported Rudolf von Rheinfelden as anti-king of Germany. He arrived in Italy and was installed in [1079/May 1080] asMarchese di Susaby his [future] wife's paternal grandmother[99], the installation presumably taking place after the death in Jan1080 of his wife's uncle Amedée II Comte de Savoie who had succeeded his olderbrother as Marchese di Susa in 1078.

b) [ALIX de Savoie(-after 21 Dec 1099). "Bonifacius marchio filius Teutonis…marchio…cum Alice cometissa filia qd. d. Petri marchio atque Theotone, Petro, Magnifredo, Hugone etWillielmo filiis eorum" donated property to "monasterio sanctiPetri…in…villa Saviliani" by charter dated 21 Dec 1099[100]. Szabolcs de Vajay dismisses this individual as an imaginaryperson designed to explain the claims of Marchese Bonifazio to Turin, which he in fact inherited through his mother who was the younger sister of Adelaida di Susa, mother of Comte Pierre[101]. It is uncertain whether he was aware of the charter quoted abovewhen he made this suggestion. Even if the charter in question was spurious, itis unclear what purpose would have been served by fabricating the ancestry ofMarchese Bonifazio´s wife. It should be noted that Bonifazio´s [second] wifeAgnes de Vermandois was considerably younger than her husband. An earliermarriage would therefore be likely. m as his first wife,BONIFACIOdi Saluzzo Marchese del Vasto, son of ODDONE Marchese di LiguriaOccidentale & his wife Berta di Susa (-after 1127).]

c) [BERTHE([1075]-before 1111). Szabolcs de Vajay[102] suggests that Berta, second wife of Pedro I King of Aragon, was thedaughter of Comte Pierre, although there appears to be no direct proof thatthis is correct. He further suggests that, when Emperor Heinrich IVcaptured Tuscany in 1092, Berthe could have taken refuge at her mother's courtat Poitiers from where her marriage was arranged, her future husband's firstwife having been her mother's first cousin. Zuritawho, while in relation to Queen Berta stating that “no se escrive cuya hijafuesse”, comments that “en las historias de Castilla...el Rey Don Alonsoque ganó a Toledo tuvo...una [muger] llamada Berta que era natural de Toscana”[third wife of Alfonso VI King of Castile, see the document CASTILE KINGS forthe primary sources on which this statement is based], that “el EmperadorHenrico avia casado con Berta hija de Otho Marques de Italia”, and that “pareceverisimil que esta Reyna Berta sucediesse de aquella casa de los Marqueses deItalia”[103]. Berta is named incharters in Aragon from 16 Aug 1097 to 1105[104]. “Berta...regina” donated “tres campos...et uno orto”in Huesca to “don Bruno mea magistro” by charter dated Jul [1101][105]. Ubieto Arteta points out that “Bruno” was “[un] nombrecompletamente desconocido en la omomástica aragonesa del siglo XI e importadoindudablemente de Italia o de Francia” and suggesting that this couldsuggest an Italian origin for Queen Berta, although recognising that “elargumento...apenas tiene fuerza, pues se da el nombre de Bruno en el Midi y enlas poblaciones de francos”[106]. Szabolcs de Vajay identifies the grantee Bruno as the son ofFriedrich Graf, Herr von Lützelburg (see the document BAR) and his wife Agnesde Savoie (who was recorded as the daughter of Pierre Comte de Savoie andtherefore would have been the sister of Queen Berta if her Savoy affiliationwas correct)[107]. This may appear unlikely considering that the son of Graf Friedrich cannot havebeen born much earlier than [1086] and therefore would have been no more than10 years old at the most at the time of King Pedro's marriage in 1097. Pedro IKing of Aragon donated “villa...Buniales” to “abbate don Galindo”,at the request of “uxoris mee Berta regina”, by charter dated Jan 1103[108]. “Berta regina” granted “in Sangarren...kasas quefuerunt domni Hormat Ibn Motert Ibn Alabe” to “Enneco Banzones” bycharter dated 1105, the dating clause of which records “cognatum meum regedomni Antefonso, me sub gratia domnum meum rege domno Petro...et cumamore...cognatum meum in Auguero et in Moriello, in Arrigolis et in Merquerlo,in Aiierve et in Sangarren et in Kalgen” [Agüero, Murillo, Riglos,Marcuello, Ayerbe, Sangarren and Callén][109]. “Berta regina” donated “almunia...inter Berbegal etMonte Rog” to the monastery of Alaon by charter dated to [1105], the datingclause of which records “Antefonso cognato meo in Pampilona et in Aragona,in Superarvi et in Ripacurcia, me autem regnante in Murello et in Auvero et inAierb...”[110]. Ubieto Arteta refers to the areas named in these twocharters as governed by Queen Berta as “el‘reino’que llamamos delos Mallos”, adding that “la existencia del pequeño Estado...fué efimera”and that “antes de 1111...estaba a punto de desaparecer” (he does notcite the primary source on which he bases this date)[111]. Szabolcs de Vajay assumes that itdisappeared when the queen died[112]. Although the area is called “reino” and “Estado” by UbietoArteta, there appears no reason to suppose from the wording of these twocharters that the territory was anything other than aseñorío granted byKing Pedro as dower for his wife, and that it was governed in the same way asany otherseñorío in the kingdom of Aragon. Berta would have continuedto bear the title queen after her husband´s death, and the phrase “me autemregnante” in the second document should not be interpreted other than asthe normal way in which administration of a territory by a queen could bedescribed without implying that the area had become a “kingdom”. m(Huesca 16 Aug 1097) as his second wife,PEDROI King of Aragon and Navarre, son of SANCHO I Ramírez King ofAragon and Navarre & his first wife Isabel de Urgel([1066/18 Aug 1068]-Valle de Aran 27 Sep 1104, bur Monastery of SanJuan de la Peña).]

2. AMEDEEde Savoie ([1048/50]-26 Jan1080, bur Saint-Jean de Maurienne). "Oddo et uxor mea Adalaicis…et filii mei Petrus Admedeus etfilie mee" donated churches to Oulx by charter dated May 1057[113]. "Adelegida…comitissa"donated property to Pinerolo, for the souls of "domni Manfredimarchionis genitoris mei et Adalrici episcopi Barbani mei et Bertæ genetricismeæ et…domni Odonis marchionis viri mei", by charter dated 8 Sep 1064,signed by "Petri, Amedei, Vitelmi qui Bruno vicecomes vocatur…Henriciqui vocatur Marchio…"[114]. His parentage is confirmed by the Annalsof Lambert which record that Heinrich IV King of Germany was in "Cinis"[Mont-Cénis] in Italy at Christmas 1077 to meet "socrum suam filiumqueeius Amedeum"[115],the latter being the king's brother-in-law. "DomnaAdelaida comitissa filia…cum filiis suis Petro et Amedeo" donatedproperty to Novalesa, for the soul of "mariti sui Oddonis", bycharter dated 16 Jul 1078[116]. He succeeded his brother in 1078 asAMEDEE II Comte de Savoie,Marchese di Susa. The necrology of Torino San Andreo records the death "VIIKal Feb" of "comes Amedeus de Sabaudia"[117]. m ([1065/70])JEANNE, daughterof --- (-[1095]). The primary source which confirms her marriage has not yetbeen identified. Guichenon names her as the wife of Comte Amedée II referringto various secondary sources[118]. Her origin is not known. Guichenon, referring to "Henninges"(no precise citation), suggests "avec…assurance et…probabilité"that she wasJeanne de Genève,daughter of Gerold Comte de Genève & his first wife Gisela ---[119]. From his discussion, it does not appear that this speculation isbased on any surviving primary source and it is not known how accurate it mightbe. Comte Amedée II & his wife had [five] children:

a) ADELAIDEde Savoie ([1068/72]-before1115). Her parentage and marriage areconfirmed by the charter dated 1090 under which "Adelais comitissafilia quondam bonæ memoriæ comitis et marchionis Amedei" confirmed thedonations by "Manasses dominus de Coloniaco quondam maritus meus"to Nantua, for the soul of "patris sui Manassis", signed by"Humbertus et Manasses filii mei"[120]. Her birth date is estimated from her sons being named in 1090,and bearing in mind her father's estimated birth date. mMANASSES[II]Seigneur de Coligny,son of MANASSES [I] & his wife --- (-after 1086).

b) [AUXILIA(-[6 Sep] after 1094). The wife of Humbert [II]Seigneur de Beaujeu is named in three charters:"Auxiliauxor domni Humberti" donated property to Notre-Dame de Beaujeu byundated charter, dated in the compilation to [1090][121]. "Umberti, Auxilie uxoris sue" subscribed thecharter dated 1090 which records the donation to Notre-Dame de Beaujeu by"Stephanus"[122]. "Domnus Humbertus et uxor sua…Auxilia et infantes eorum Guicchardus etHumbertus et Guigo et Ugo" confirmed the donation to Notre-Dame deBeaujeu by Herbert de Senecé by charter dated 1094[123]. The necrology of Notre-Dame de Beaujeu records "Humbertiet Auxilie uxoris domini Bellijoci" on "VII Id Sep"[124], but it is not clear which death is commemorated. She is named inEuropäische Stammtafeln[125] as the daughter of Comte Amedée, but the primary source on whichthis is based has not yet been identified. Presumablythis supposition is based on the undated charter, dated in the compilation to[1080/90], under which "Humbertus Beljocensis", who wasmarried to "filiam Amedei comitis Savoiensis", donatedproperty "Carruptum…[et] Capolerium" to Notre-Dame de Beaujeu[126]. Guichenon suggests that there is confusion between Auxilia and Alix de Savoie, wife of Humbert [III] Seigneur de Beaujeu (see below)[127]. The basis for dating the charter in question to [1080/90] has notbeen ascertained and, assuming that this does not depend on dating the churchdignitaries who are named in the document ("Petri, Guiscardi etStephani supradictæ ecclesie"), the confusion appears possible. m ([1080]) as hissecond wife,HUMBERT[II]Seigneur de Beaujeu,son of GUICHARD [II] Seigneur de Beaujeu & his wife Richoara [de Salornay](-[1102/03]).]

c) HUMBERT de Savoie ([1072]- Moûtiers 19 Oct 1103, bur Moûtiers). "Umbertus comes, filius quondam Amedei"donated property to the monastery at Pinerolo by charter dated 29 Nov 1098[128]. He succeeded his father in 1080 asHUMBERT II "le Renforcé"Comtede Maurienne et de Savoie, under the regency ofhis paternal grandmother.

d) [ODDON . He is named inEuropäische Stammtafeln[129] as the son of Comte Amedée but the primary source on which this isbased has not been identified. He is not named as such by Guichenon[130].]

e) [daughter. Thewife of Ulrich [I] de Bâgé was daughter of Amedée I Comte de Maurienneaccording toEuropäische Stammtafeln[131]. This seems difficult to supportchronologically, in light of the known dates of death of two of the sons of Ulric de Bâgé (1180 and 1184 respectively) which suggest that they were born after1100. If her father was a Count of Savoy, it is more likely that he was Amedée II. mULRIC[I]de Bâgéet de Bresse, son of JOSSERAN [Gaulseran] Seigneur de Bâgé et de Bresse &his wife --- (before 1074-after 1125).]

3. BERTHEde Savoie (21 Sep 1051-Mainz27 Dec 1087, bur Speyer Cathedral). The Annalista Saxo names "Bertam filiam Ottonis marchionisde Italia et Adelheidis que soror erat comitis qui agnominatus est de MonteBardonis in Italia et Immule seu Irmingardis" as wife of King Heinrich[132]. Her husband proposed to repudiate her in 1069, but withdrew his demand[133]. The dispute was finally settled in 1077 when Empress Bertha'smother intervened to prevent any repudiation in return for mediating betweenthe emperor and Pope Gregory VII in Canossa[134]. TheAnnales Sancti Diibodi recordthe death in 1087 of "Bertha imperatrix" and her burial "apudMoguntiam"[135]. The necrology of Regensburg St Emmeran records thedeath "VI Kal Jan" of "Berhta imperatrix"[136]. The necrology of Speyer records the death"VI Kal Jan" of "Bertha imperatrix"[137]. m (betrothed Zurich 25 Dec1055, Tribur[138]13 Jul 1066) as his first wife,HEINRICH IV King ofGermany, son of Emperor HEINRICH III & his second wife Agnèsde Poitou ([Goslar] 11 Nov 1050-Liège 7 Aug 1106, bur Speyer Cathedral). Hewas crownedEmperor at Rome 31 Mar1084.

4. ADELAIDE ([1052/53]-[Schloß Twiel] early 1079, bur St Blasius). The Annales of Berthold,which record the death in 1079 of "uxor…regis Roudolfi…Adelheit, filiaAdelheidæ marchionissæ, soror Berhtæ reginæ uxoris Heinrici", confirmthat Adelaide was the daughter of Adelaida di Susa[139]. Adelaide's daughter Adelheid is named with"progenitoribus Rodolfo…rege et Adelheida…regina materteraHeinrici quarti inperatoris" in a charter dated [1079/10 Oct 1086][140]. It is assumed that she was the daughter of her mother's thirdmarriage but this is not certain. Europäische Stammtafeln[141] shows Adelaide's birth date as "after 1052", presumablybased on the likelihood that she was born after her sister Berthe, as HeinrichIV King of Germany would presumably have married the older daughter. Concerning her marriage date, it is likely that the marriage took place afterthe marriage of her sister, assuming that Oddon was her father. She is named "Adalheid coniux Ruodulfi ducis" intheAnnales Weissemburgenses, which record that she was accused of being unchaste, wasrepudiated by her husband two years later, but that Pope Alexander arranged areconciliation, dated to [1069/71][142]. A continuation of theAnnales of St Gallen records that “uxorRudolphi ducis” was accused of adultery with “Werinhario commite suocognato”[143]. The Annales of Berthold record that "rex…Roudolfus…uxor" was "in partes Burgundiæ a Turego divertens",suffering "iniurias" in "quodam castello suo"[144]. The wife of "Rudolfus rex de Arle" is named"Adelheidis" in a list of founders of the monastery of St Peter in Schwarzwald[145]. TheAnnales Sancti Blasii record the death in 1079 of "Adelheituxor Roudolfi regis" and her burial "apud Sanctum Blasium"[146]. The Annales of Berthold record the death in 1079 of "uxor…regis Roudolfi…Adelheit, filia Adelheidæ marchionissæ, soror Berhtæ reginæ uxoris Heinrici"and her burial "ad monasterium Sancti Blasii"[147].

According toEuropäische Stammtafeln[148],Adelaide married firstly Guigues Comte d'Albon. Another table inEuropäische Stammtafeln showsthe first wife of Guigues Comte d'Albon as "Adelais (von Turin)" and their son Guigues II Comte d'Albon as co-heir of Adelaida Marchesedi Susa in 1091[149]. The basis for this alleged first marriage has not been found, but it isunlikely to be correct considering the estimated birth date of Adelaide.] m([1061/62])as his second wife,RUDOLFvon Rheinfelden Duke of Swabia, son of KUNO Graf & his wife--- (before 1027-killed in battle near Hohenmölsen, Merseburg [15/16] Oct 1080,bur Merseburg Cathedral). He was elected King of Germany in 1077.

5. ODDONde Savoie (-[Jul1095/1099]). He is named by Guichenon as the son of Comte Oddon and his wife,stating that the parentage is confirmed in "plusieurs titres"although he cites none of these recognisably[150]. None of these primary sources has so far been identified. He wasnot named in his parents´ charter dated May 1057 under which"Oddo et uxor mea Adalaicis…et filii mei Petrus Admedeus etfilie mee" donated churches to Oulx[151], indicating that he was considered too young at the time to bementioned and suggesting that he was his parents´ youngest child. Bishop of Asti 1073/1079. His last documentary mention is 28 Mar1095, but his bishopric is still referred to in Jul 1095[152].

HUMBERT de Savoie,son of AMEDEE II Comte de Savoie & his wife Jeanne [de Genève]([1072]-Moûtiers 19 Oct 1103, bur Moûtiers). "Umbertus comes, filius quondam Amedei" donated property tothe monastery at Pinerolo by charter dated 29 Nov 1098[153]. He succeeded his father in 1080 asHUMBERT II "le Renforcé"Comtede Maurienne et de Savoie, under the regency ofhis paternal grandmother. On her death in 1091, Humbert lost much of herterritories, retaining only the valley of Susa[154]. He was the first of his family to strengthen relations with France, diverting his attention from Italy after the loss of most of the family'sItalian possessions. "Ubertus filii qda Amedo" donatedproperty to Santa Maria d´Ivrea by charter dated 14 Sep 1094[155]. "Nantelmus" confirmed the foundation of thepriory of Bellevaux en Bauges ["Bellævalles…supra villam Boggarum"],with the support of "Humberto comite", by charter dated to theend-11th century[156]. "Humbertus comes et marchio" donated property to the abbey ofAulps ["in pago Gebennensi in valle…Alpis"], with the consentof "Girardo Alingiensi et Gilione de Rovorea quorum feudem est",by charter dated to [1094], witnessed by "Girardus Alingiensis,Rodulphus de Fulciniaco, Uldricus comes, Anselmus, Willelmus, Amedeus filiuseiusdem Girardi"[157]. "Humbertus comes et Girardus de Alingio et Gislo miles a quibus estille locus" consented to the agreement between the abbey of Molesmeand the abbey of Aulps, recorded in a charter dated 1097[158]. "Umbertus comes filius quondam Amedei" donatedproperty to Pinerolo by charter dated 29 Nov 1098[159]. The necrology of Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne records the death "XIVKal Nov" of "Humbertus comes Maur."[160].

m ([1090]) as her first husband,GISELE deBourgogne, daughter of GUILLAUME I Comte Palatin de Bourgogne, Comte de Vienne et de Mâcon & his wife Etiennette ---([1075]-after1133). Her parentage isdeduced from Suger stating that her daughter Adelaide, wife of LouisVI "le Gros" King of France, was the niece of Pope Calixtus II[161]. This is corroborated by"Guido Viennensis archiepiscopus" (later Pope Calixtus II)addressing a letter to "nepoti suo Amedeo comiti" (Amedée IIIComte de Savoie, son of Gisèle by her first marriage) dated [1115][162]. Her date of birth is estimated from herhaving 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 birthto her first child by her first husband. "Amedeus comes"donated property to Saint-Jean de Maurienne, for the soul of "patrissui Uberti comtis", with the consent of "Gisla matre etfratribus eius Guillelmo atque Umberto", by charter dated 21 Oct 1104[163]. She married secondly ([1105])Ranieri Marchesedi Monferrato. Her second marriage is confirmed byOrderic Vitalis who records the marriage of Guillaume de Normandieand the daughter of Raniero III Marchese di Monferrato, naming both the bride'sparents and specifying that the marriage was arranged by the bride's uterinehalf-sister, Adélaïde de Maurienne Queen of France[164].

Comte Humbert II & his wife had [seven] children:

1. ADELAIDE de Maurienne([1092]-Montmartre 18 Nov 1154, bur Montmartre, église abbatiale de Saint-Pierre). Her first marriage is recorded byOrderic Vitalis, who also names her father and her four oldest sons[165]. TheDe Genere Comitum Flandrensium, Notæ Parisienses records "filiam Humberticomitis Morienne" as wife of "Ludovicum regem Grossum"[166]. The Chronicle ofAlberic de Trois-Fontaines names "regina Alaydis…soror Amadeicomitis Sabaudie" as wife of "Ludovici Grossi"[167]. She exercised considerable influence overher husband, playing an active part in the downfall of Etienne de Garlande,Chancellor of France. After the accession of her son as King Louis VIIin 1137, Adelaide conspired against Suger, Abbé de Saint-Denis, triggering aquarrel with her son who exiled her and her second husband to her lands inCompiègne. Her second marriage is confirmed by anundated charter which records a donation to the priory of Saint-Nicolas d´Acy,near Senlis made in the presence of "dominæ Adelæ reginæ et dominiMathei mariti eius"[168]. In 1153, she retired to the church of the Abbaye de Saint-Pierre at Montmartre, which she had founded[169]. The necrology of the abbey of Saint-Denis records the death "XIV Kal Dec" of "Adelaidis regina"[170]. m firstly (Paris [25/30] Mar 1115)LOUIS VI"le Gros"King of France,son of PHILIPPE I King of France & his first wife Bertha of Holland (Parisend 1081-Château Bethizy, near Paris 1 Aug 1137, bur église de l'Abbaye royalede Saint-Denis). m secondly ([1138]) ashis second wife,MATHIEU[I]Seigneur de Montmorency,son of BOUCHARD [III] Seigneur de Montmorency & his first wife Agnès deBeaumont Dame de Conflans (-[2 Aug/31 Dec] 1160).

He succeeded in 1109 asAMEDEE IIIComtede Maurienne et de Savoie.

6. RENAUDde Maurienne (-after 1150). "Dominus Amedeus comes et marchio et frater eius Raynaldus"granted rights to the archbishop of Tarantasia, with the consent of "Aymonevicecomite, fratribus suis Gunterio, Willienco, Aymerico", by charterdated to [1140][175]. Prior of the Benedictine abbey of Saint-Maurice, Aosta.

7. [AGNES(-after 1180). A notice dated [25 Jan] [1137/39] or 1140 concerning the foundationof the leprosery of La Madeleine near Souvigny refers to a donation of land by"domni Archinbaudi Borbonensis et Agnetis comitissæ" soldproperty to the prior of Montet by charter dated to [22 Sep 1095/early Jan1097][176]. According toEuropäische Stammtafeln[177], the wife of Archambaud [VII] was the daughter of Comte Humbert II. The primary source which confirms thatthis is correct has not yet been identified but no indication has been found toindicate that it is incorrect. However, it is surprising that Archambaud VII (who was a bachelor, and probably in his mid-thirties, at the time of hismarriage) would have married a spinster in her late thirties (Agnes must havebeen born before 1104 if she was the daughter of Comte Humbert). The referencein the charter referred to above to "Agnetis comitissæ"indicates that Agnes was of higher rank by birth than her husband. m (before 25 Jan 1140)ARCHAMBAUD[VII]Seigneur de Bourbon,son of AYMON [II] "Vaire-Vache" Seigneur de Bourbon & his wife Luciede Nevers (-1171).]

He recovered the county of Turin, lost by his father. "Comes Amedeus…cum uxore sua Adeleida comitissa"confirmed the rights of the monastery of "S. Justi in villa Volveria"by charter dated 27 Jul 1134, witnessed by "Umbertus de Bocsosello,Aimo de Brianzone…"[183]. "A. comes et marchio cum uxore sua M." donated property to themonastery of Ripalta, with the support of "eorum filio Umberto",by charter dated 9 Jan 1137[184]. "Palatinus Comes Amedeus" donated property to the monastery ofLocedio "in terra Willelmi Marchionis fratris sui" [hisuterine brother] by charter dated 30 Jul 1137[185]. "Amedeus comes et marchio"donated revenue from Conflens to the archbishop of Tarantasia by charter dated28 Feb 1139[186]. "Dominus Amedeus comes et marchio et frater eius Raynaldus"granted rights to the archbishop of Tarantasia, with the consent of "Aymonevicecomite, fratribus suis Gunterio, Willienco, Aymerico", by charterdated to [1140][187]. The first known use of the white cross on a red background as the arms of theHouse of Savoy was in a charter dated 1143[188].

m firstly ([1120/23])ADELAIDE,daughter of --- (-after Jul 1134). "ComesAmedeus…cum uxore sua Adeleida comitissa" confirmed the rights of themonastery of "S. Justi in villa Volveria" by charter dated 27Jul 1134, witnessed by "Umbertus de Bocsosello, Aimo de Brianzone…"[193]. Europäische Stammtafelnshowsthe single marriage of Comte Amedée III, to Mathilde d'Albon, in 1123[194]. Given the likely birth dates of Alix de Savoie, oldest daughterof Comte Amedée, and of Mathilde d'Albon (see below), it is unlikely thatMathilde was the mother of Alix. A first marriage of Comte Amedée is thereforehighly probable. Palluel shows Comte Amedée III's first wife as Gertrude de Lorraine, daughter of Simon I Duke of Lorraine[195]. This can be dismissed as incorrect. NeitherEuropäische Stammtafeln[196]nor Poull[197]refers to any such daughter of Duke Simon. In addition, bearing in mind that Duke Simon himself was probably born in 1096[198], it is chronologically impossible for any daughter of his to havegiven birth to a child in [1123/25]. Her marriage date is estimated based onthe estimated birth date of the couple's supposed elder daughter, Alix de Savoie, as shown below. The origin of Adelaide is unknown. However,according toEuropäische Stammtafeln, her supposed daughter Alix was Dame de Châteauneuf-en-Valromey, de Virieu-le-Grand,et de Cordon-en-Bugey[199]. Further research to trace the ownership of these fiefdoms may provide cluesabout the origin of Adelaide.

m secondly ([Jul 1134/1135])MATHILDE d'Albon,daughter of GUIGUES [V] Comte d'Albon [Viennois] & his wife Regina [Matilda] --- ([1112/16]-after 30 Mar 1148). "A.comes et marchio cum uxore sua M." donated property to the monasteryof Ripalta, with the support of "eorum filio Umberto", bycharter dated 9 Jan 1137[200]. TheAymari Rivalli De Allobrogibus records that "Amedeo…secundo,Mauriennæ comiti" married "Guigona Crassi filia"[201]. The identity of her father is clarified as the passage also names"Humbertus minor Crassi filius" and his appointment ot "archiepiscopatumViennensem". Europäische Stammtafeln[202]shows a single marriage of Comte Amedée III, to Mathilde d'Albon, in 1123. It is more likely that Mathilde was his second wife, asexplained above, especially if her likely birth date range is correct. According toEuropäische Stammtafeln[203], Mathilde's parents were married in [1106-1110]. The same tableshows that Mathilde's two brothers, Guigues and Humbert, were mentioned in1110, indicating that the marriage must have taken place during the earlierpart of this date range. A third child, Gersende d'Albon, must also have bornduring the early years of her parents' marriage as she herself gave birth totwo sons before (or shortly after) the death of her husband in Oct 1129. Assuming all these dates are correct, the timescale is tight for the birth of afourth child, Mathilde, before 1112 at the earliest. This would make itimpossible for Mathilde to have been the mother of Comte Amedée's oldestdaughter Alix. "Amedeus comes et marchio etMaies comitissa uxor eius et Umbertus eorum filius" donated propertyto the monastery of Saint-Maurice by charter dated 30 Mar 1143[204]. "Amedeus comes et marchio" confirmed donationsto Saint-Sulpice en Bugey, for the soul of "filii mei Humberti",by charter dated to [1148], which also names "uxore mea Matildi",confirmed by "Aalasia comitissa de Bello Joco…cum filio meo Guichardo"[205]. "Amedeus comes et marchio etMajes comitissa uxor eius et Umbertus eorum filius" confirmed therights of the monastery of Saint-Maurice d´Agaune by charter dated 30 Mar 1148[206].

Comte Amedée III& his first wife had two children:

1. ALIX [Elise]de Savoie([1123/25]-). Herorigin is alluded to in the Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines which names"pater Wichardi [de Belloico] senior Humbertus" as "nepos ex sorore comitis Sabaudie", although she is not named in thissource[207]. Her birth date range is estimated based on the birth of her second son in 1142,as shown inEuropäische Stammtafeln[208].Dame de Châteauneuf-en-Valromey, de Virieu-le-Grand, et deCordon-en-Bugey[209]. "Amedeus comes et marchio" confirmed donations toSaint-Sulpice en Bugey, for the soul of "filii mei Humberti",by charter dated to [1148], which also names "uxore mea Matildi",confirmed by "Aalasia comitissa de Bello Joco…cum filio meo Guichardo"[210]. m ([1140])HUMBERT[III]Seigneur deBeaujeu, son of GUICHARD [IV] Seigneur de Beaujeu & his wife Lucienne de Rochefort ([1120]-[late Oct [1192]/1193]).

2. MATHILDE de Savoie([1125][211]-Coimbra 4 Nov 1157, bur Coimbra, Church of the Cross). TheChronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines refers to the wife of "Aldefonsus rex Portugallie" as "filia comitis Sabaudie" butdoes not name her[212]. TheDe Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes records the marriage of"Aldefonsum" and "Mafaldam filiam Comitis Maurienæ"[213]. TheChronicon Lusitanum records the marriage in 1183 (1145) of “RexDonnus Alfonsus” and “Donnam Matildam, Comitis Amadæi de Moriana filiam”,adding that they had three sons and three daughters[214]. Brandaõ quotes acharter of the king dated 1146 which records “anno...quo duxeramt Mahaldam”and a charter dated Jul 1146 in which he records a donation “cum uxore meaRegina Dona Mafalda”[215]. It is likely that Mathilde was the daughter of ComteAmedée III's first marriage, although no proof has been found that this iscorrect. As she gave birth to her first child in 1147[216], it is improbable that she was the daughter of ComteAmedée III's marriage with Mathilde d'Albon for the same reasons of chronologyas explained above. She was known as donaMAFALDAin Portugal. “Alfonsus,Portugaliæ rex, comitis Henrici et reginæ Theresiæ filius, magni quoque regisAlfonsi nepos…cum uxore mea regina donna Malfada, filia comitis Amedei deMoriana” confirmed donations to La Charité-sur-Loire by his father bycharter dated Jul 1145[217]. TheChronicon Lusitanum records the death “III Non Dec” in 1196(1158) of “Regina D. Matilda…Comitis Amadæi filia, uxor D. AlfonsiPortugallensium Regis”[218]. m([Jan/Jun] 1146)AFONSO I King of Portugal,son of HENRIQUE Count of Portugal [Bourgogne-Comté] & his wife Infanta doñaTeresa de Castilla y León, Queen of Portugal (Guimaraes 25 Jul 1110-Coimbra 6Dec 1185, bur Coimbra, Church of the Cross).

Comte Amedée III& his second wife had seven children:

3. HUMBERT de Savoie (Avigliana 4 Aug 1136-Chambéry 4 Mar 1189, bur Abbaye de Hautecombe). Robertof Torigny names "Humbertus comes Moriennæ" as "filius Amati comitis"[219]. He succeeded in 1150 asHUMBERT III ComtedeMaurienne et de Savoie.

- see below.

4. JEAN de Savoie (-Ranverso). The primary source which confirms his parentage hasnot yet been identified. Guichenon states that Jean and his brother Pierrewere monks at the monastery of Sant'Antonio di Ranverso in Piemonte where theydied, but cites no source although the dated 1188 is placed in the margin[220].

5. PIERRE de Savoie (-Ranverso). The primary source which confirms his parentage hasnot yet been identified. Guichenon states that Jean and his brother Pierrewere monks at the monastery of Sant'Antonio di Ranverso in Piemonte where theydied, but cites no source although the dated 1188 is placed in the margin[221].

6. GUILLAUME de Savoie (-after 1173). "…Willelmus fratercomitis" signed the marriage contract dated 1173 between"Johanni filio Henrici…regis Angliæ" and "Humbertuscomes Mauriensis et marchio Italiæ…filia…primogenita…Aalis"[222]. Priest.

He established close relations with Henry II King of England, negotiating the marriage of one of his daughters with the king's son John[231]. He attempted to regain control over Turin and the surroundinglands, but came into conflict with Emperor Friedrich I "Barbarossa"who was also extending his power in northern Italy. Although the emperor wasobliged to withdraw in 1168, he returned in 1174, burned the town of Susain revenge for its opposition during his first Italian expedition, and deprived Comte Humbert of supremacy over the bishoprics of Turin, Belley andTarentaise, placing them under the direct control of the empire. Comte Humbert continued to fight and, after refusing a summons to attend an imperialtribunal, was condemned in his absence to banishment from the empire andconfiscation of his lands. Heinrich VI King of Germany was attempting toenforce the sentence on behalf of his father the emperor, when Comte Humbert died. "Umbertus comes de Morienna" grantedprivileges to the monastery of Santa Maria di Staffarda by charter dated 28 Jun1172, witnessed by "Rodulfus Alaman, Poncius de Confluent…"[232]. The dating clause of a charter dated 20 Oct 1188, which recordsan agreement between the bishop of Maurienne and the canons of his cathedral,names "Humberto comite presidente"[233]. The necrology of Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne records the death "IVNon Mar" in 1189 of "dognus Humbertus…comes Maur. et marchioItalie"[234]. He was beatified in 1836.

m firstly (before 3 Jan 1151)FAYDIVE,daughter of --- (-[1154]). "Umbertus comes, Amedei comitis filius…cumuxore sua…Faidiva" donated property by charter dated 3 Jan 1151[235]. The origins of Faydive are not known. Her unusual name suggeststhat she wasFaydive de Toulouse, daughter of Alphonse I Jourdain Comte de Toulouse & his wifeFaydive [Faydide] d'Uzès (-[1154]). However, she was not the only noblerecorded with this name in south-western France during the early 12th centuryso this co-identity is not without doubt.

m secondly ([1155], divorced before 1162) as her first husband,GERTRUDEde Flandre, daughter of THIERRY I Count of Flanders & hissecond wife Sibylle d'Anjou (-3 Mar after 1186). TheGenealogica Comitum Flandriæ Bertiniana names (in order) "Philippum, Matheum, Petrum et tres filias"as the children of "Theodericus filius ducis Alsatie [et] Sibillam",not naming the daughters but specifying that "quarum primogenita nupsitAmico comiti Intermontano"[236]. TheFlandria Generosa names (in order) "Gertrudemet Margaretam" as the two daughters of Count Thierry & his secondwife[237]. TheFlandria Generosa, in a later manuscript, names "Gertrudisprimogenita" and her first husband "comiti de Moriana",from whom she was separated, and her second husband "Hugoni de Oisi", specifying that she later became a nun at "Mencinis"[238]. She married secondly(after 1158) as hisfirst wife,Hugues[III]d'Oisy Châtelain de Cambrai, and became a nun at Messines in [1177]. Philippe Count ofFlanders, on the point of leaving on crusade, declared that "sororismee Gertrudis quondam Morianensis comitisse" had renounced herinheritance before becoming a nun, by charter dated [24 Apr/12 Jun] 1177[239].

TheChronicon Hanoniense refers to "filiam [uxorem]…dux Saxonum Henricus" as the daughter of "ducissam…Ciringiorum [filiamGodefridi comitis Namurcensi]"[241]. Heiress of Badenweiler, although herfirst husband sold these Swabian estates to Friedrich I "Barbarossa"King of Germany in 1158, receiving in exchange Herzberg, Scharzfels and Pöhldesouth of the Harz[242]. Her first marriage was arranged to confirm her father's alliance with the Welfparty in southern Germany[243]. TheAnnales Palidenses record the repudiation by "Heinricusdux" of his first wife "Bertoldi ducis Zaringe sorore"[244]. Her first husband repudiated Klementia because of the growingdifficulties between her brother Duke Berthold IV and Emperor Friedrich I"Barbarossa", with whom Duke Heinrich was by then in close alliance[245]. Her second marriage is confirmed byRalphde Diceto´sYmagines Historiarum which record in 1173 the betrothal of “Henricusrex Angliæ, Johanni filio suo cognomento sine terra” and [her daughter] “septennifiliam primogenitam Humberti comitis de Moriana...ex relicta Henrici Saxonisducis”[246].

The necrology of Hautecombe records the death of"Beatrix comitissa" 8 Apr 1230[249].

Comte Humbert III & his third wife had two children:

1. ALIX de Maurienne ([1166]-1174). Ralph de Diceto´sYmagines Historiarum record in 1173 thebetrothal of “Henricus rex Angliæ, Johanni filio suo cognomento sine terra”and “septenni filiam primogenitam Humberti comitis de Moriana...ex relictaHenrici Saxonis ducis”[250]. Her parentage is specified by Matthew of Paris when he records this betrothal. Although he does not name her, he calls her "filia primogenita"[251]. Benedict of Peterborough records the betrothal of "Humbertuscomes de Mauriana…Aalis filiam suam majoram" and "rex…Johannis filii sui iunioris" at "Alvernium…Montem Ferratum" in 1173 before 2 Feb, and the agreement whereby Johnwould inherit the county of Maurienne if Humbert had no sons by his wife[252].

He succeeded his father in 1189 asTHOMAS I Comtede Maurienne et de Savoie.

- see below.

4. [daughter (-aged 7 years). She is referred toinEuropäische Stammtafeln as the daughter of Comte Humbert III and hisfourth wife but the primary source on which this is based has not beenidentified[256]. She is not mentioned by Guichenon[257]. As Comte Humbert’s daughter Alix was also described as sevenyears old in the source quoted above, this daughter’s supposed existence may bebased on some confusion with Alix.]

THOMAS de Maurienne,son of HUMBERT III Comte de Maurienne et de Savoie & his fourth wife Béatrix de Vienne [Bourgogne-Comté] (Château de Carbonara 1178 after 26 Jun-Moncalieri 1 Mar 1233, bur Saint-Michel de la Cluse). Anundated charter records a donation to Saint-Maurice by "felicis memorieHumbertus…Savoie comes" and the confirmation by "Thomas filiuseiusdem comitis"[258]. He succeeded his father in 1189 asTHOMAS I Comtede Maurienne et de Savoie, under the regency of Guglielmo V Marchese di Monferrato whobrokered a favourable settlement to Comte Humbert III's dispute with the empire[259]. As Marchese Guglielmo was absent inPalestine at the time of the death of Comte Humbert III, the regency waspresumably held and the negotiations carried out by his son Bonifazio, whosucceeded as Marchese di Monferrato in 1192. This hypothesis appears confirmedby the following charter:"Thomas…Mauriannensiscomes et marchio Italiæ" confirmed the donations made by "patermeus…[et] domini comitis Humberti…abavi mei" to the canons ofSaint-Jean de Maurienne, with the advice of "B. matris mee et…tutore meoBonifacio marchione Montisferrati", by charter dated 12 Jun 1189[260]. "Thomæ comitis etmarchionis…et…Nichola filia comitis Gebennarum" granted privileges tothe citizen of Susa by charter dated 25 Feb 1198[261]. He used the titleComte de Savoie:"Thomas comes Sabaud. et Amedeus eius filius"granted rights to the abbey of San Marco by charter dated 5 Mar 1200[262]. Comte Thomas supported the imperial party over the Guelfs, andwas appointed Imperial Vicar in Italy. Philipp King of Germany granted him Moudon in Vaud, and Chieri and Testona in Piemonte in 1207. He alsoacquired Carignano, Pinerolo, Moncalieri, Vigone, Albenga and Savona inPiemonte. "Thomas Maurianensis comes etmarchio" donated property to the abbey of Saint-Maurice, with theconsent of "filiis suis Amedeo et Humberto", by charter dated8 Nov 1217[263]. A charter dated 1224 records an agreement between"Thomæ com. Sabaud" and the bishop of Sion, witnessed by"ipse Thomas comes, Amedeus primogenitus illius, Comitissa uxor Thomæ,eorum quatuor filii clerici…Willelmus, Thomas, Petrus et Bonifacius"[264]. He bought the town of Chambéry in 1232. TheChronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the death in 1232 of "comitis Thome de Sabaudia"[265]. An indication of the precarious financialposition of the counts of Savoy is provided by a third testament, dated 2 Nov1240, made by Thomas´s son"Amadeus com Sab. etmarchio in Italia" who repeated the nomination of "Thomæ,Flandriæ comiti, fratri suo" as his heir to "totius comitatussui Sabaudiæ marchionatus Italiæ et ducatus Chablasii" if he diedwithout male children, on condition that he satisfied all the debts of "Thomæcomitis patris et Humberti fratris ipsorum"[266].

m ([1196])MARGUERITE[Beatrix]de Genève, daughter of GUILLAUME [I] Comte de Genève & his second wife Béatrix de Faucigny (-8 Apr 1257,bur Abbaye de Hautecombe). The Chronicle of Alberic deTrois-Fontaines names "Margareta filia domni de Fusceneis dematre Guilelmi, filii Humberti comitis Gebenensis" as wife of "comitis Thome de Sabaudia"[267]. As noted below, Marguerite is also called Beatrix in latersources. No explanation has been found for these dual names. The fact that"Beatrix" appears in a seal shows that it was not a transcriptionerror. "Thomæ comitis et marchionis…et…Nichola[presumably atranscription error] filia comitis Gebennarum" granted privilegesto the citizen of Susa by charter dated 25 Feb 1198[268]. TheComplete Peerage[269] refers to unspecified "later writers" having evolved anincorrect theory that Thomas I Comte de Maurienne was married firstly toBéatrix and, after her death without issue, secondly to Marguerite, daughter ofGuillaume de Faucigny, who was the mother of his children. The same sourceconfirms that the two names in fact refer to the same person. A charter dated1224 records an agreement between "Thomæ com. Sabaud" and thebishop of Sion, witnessed by "ipse Thomas comes, Amedeus primogenitusillius, Comitissa uxor Thomæ, eorum quatuor filii clerici…Willelmus, Thomas,Petrus et Bonifacius"[270]. "M. comitissa Maurian. uxor Thomæcomitis Maurianensis et marchionis Italiæ" donated property, with theconsent of "Thomas com. Maurianæ et filii mei Amedeus et Aymo",by charter dated Dec 1227[271].

"Beatrix uxor comitis Thomæ,Amadeus primogenitus et Aymo filii eius" confirmed the purchase ofChambéry by "Thoma comite" by charter dated 1232, with theseal of "Beatricis comitisse Sabaudie"[273]. "Amedeus comes Sabaudie et inItalie marchio…cum…genetrice sua et fratribus suis B. Bellicensi Electo etPhilippo Metensi Primicerio" granted "villam S. Mauritii deChablaisio" {Saint-Maurice de Chablais} to "soror illorumMargareta comitissa de Kiborch" by charter dated 24 Feb 1240[274]. "Contessa Margarita di SavoiaMarchesa in Italia" donated property to "Tomaso suo figlioConte di Fiandra e d'Hainaut" with the consent of "ConteAmedeo di Savoia suo figlio Primogenito", by charter dated 4 Jan 1244[275]. ThePingonio Chronicon records the death "VI IdApr" in 1257 of "Domina Beatrix de Gebennis comitissa Sabaudieet domina de Narembors, parens comitum Sabaudie"[276].

Comte Thomas I & his wife had fourteen children:

1. AMEDEE de Savoie (Montmélian, Savoie 1197-Montmélian 13 Jul1253, bur Abbaye de Hautecombe). "Thomas comesSabaud. et Amedeus eius filius" granted rights to the abbey of SanMarco by charter dated 5 Mar 1200[277]. His parentage is confirmed by,inter alia, Matthew ofParis who specifies that Beatrix de Savoie was "soror comitis Sabaldiæadhuc viventis Amidei", when he records the marriage of her daughterto Henry III King of England[278]. In a later passage, the same source records Amedée as "primogenitus"among the "filii comitis Sabaudiæ Thomæ avunculi dominæ reginæ Angliæ Alienoræ"[279]. "Thomas Maurianensis comes et marchio"donated property to the abbey of Saint-Maurice, with the consent of "filiissuis Amedeo et Humberto", by charter dated 8 Nov 1217[280]. A charter dated 1224 records an agreementbetween "Thomæ com. Sabaud " and the bishop of Sion, witnessedby "ipse Thomas comes, Amedeus primogenitus illius, Comitissa uxorThomæ, eorum quatuor filii clerici…Willelmus, Thomas, Petrus et Bonifacius"[281]. "M. comitissa Maurian. uxor Thomæcomitis Maurianensis et marchionis Italiæ" donated property, with theconsent of "Thomas com. Maurianæ et filii mei Amedeus et Aymo",by charter dated Dec 1227[282]. "M. comitissa Sabaudie et marchisa in Ytaliaet…Amedeus, Aymo, W. electus Valentinus, Thomas, Petrus, Bonifacius etPhilippus filii Thome Comitis Sab. et marchionis in Ytalia" confirmeddonations to Hautecombe abbey by charter dated 26 Feb 1231[283]. "Beatrix uxor comitis Thomæ,Amadeus primogenitus et Aymo filii eius" confirmed the purchase ofChambéry by "Thoma comite" by charter dated 1232, with theseal of "Beatricis comitisse Sabaudie"[284]. He succeeded his father in 1233 asAMEDEE IV Comte de Savoie,Marchese in Italy. "Amedeus comes Sabaudie etin Italia marchio" confirmed his father´s grant of privileges to Susaby charter dated 7 Mar 1233[285]. A charter dated 23 Jul 1234 records an agreement between"Amedeum comitem Sabaudie" and "Aymonem etPetrum fratres ipsius" in settlement of a dispute concerning theirpaternal inheritance[286]. The first testament of"Amedei comitis Sab. etmarchionis Italie", dated 23 Sep 1235, appoints "Thomamfratrem suum" as his heir "in comitatu et marchionatu"in default of male children[287]. This document disinherits Thomas´s older brother Aimon. The second testamentof"Amedeus comes Sabaudie", dated 19Jul 1238, repeats the nomination of "Thomam fratrem suum" ashis heir, substituting "Philippum, huic autem Petrum fratres suos"if Thomas died without male heirs[288]. He was an active supporter of Emperor Friedrich II. He acquired territories in Vaud and lower Valais. In 1238, ComteAmedée was created Duc de Chablais and Aosta, and nominated Imperial Vicar innorthern Italy, by the emperor in reward for his support against the Lombards[289]. Under a third testament, dated 2 Nov 1240,"Amadeuscom Sab. et marchio in Italia" repeated the nomination of "Thomæ,Flandriæ comiti, fratri suo" as his heir to "totius comitatussui Sabaudiæ marchionatus Italiæ et ducatus Chablasii" if he diedwithout male children, on condition that he satisfied all the debts of "Thomæcomitis patris et Humberti fratris ipsorum"[290]. A charter dated 1244 confirmed the peaceagreement reached between the bishop of Lausanne and"Amadeuscomes Sabaudie et in Italia marcho et…Petrus de Sabaudia…frater suus"[291]. Emperor Friedrich II recognised Amedée's rights over Turinin 1248. On the emperor's death in 1250, Comte Amedée's reconciliation withPope Innocent IV was sealed by the marriage of the Pope's niece to ComteAmedée's brother Thomas[292]. A fourth testament of "Amedeus comes Sabaudie" is dated 19 Sep1252, appoints "Bonifacium filium meum" as his heir, under thetutelage of his brother Thomas, substituting "fratri meo Thome deSabaudia comitis…Beatricem filiam meam uxorem quondam Manfredi marchionisSalutiarum et Margaretam filiam meam uxorem Bonifacii marchionis Montisferrati",and names "Cecilie…uxori nostre…Beatrix filia mea minor"[293]. A fifth testament of Comte Amedée IV is dated 24 May 1253,appoints "Bonifacius filius suus, sub tutela Thomæ comitis" ashis heir, substitutes "filiæ Amedei comitis…marchionissæ BeatrixSalutiarum et Margaretha Montisferrati", bequeathes "castrumMontis Meliani" to "Cæciliæ comitissæ", and choosesto be buried at Hautecombe[294]. An epitaph in Hautecombe abbey records the death"IIIId Jul" in 1253 of "Dominus Amedeus…comes Sabaudie"[295]. Betrothed (28 Apr 1213) toAGNESEdi Saluzzo, daughter of BONIFAZIO Marchese di Saluzzo & his wife Maria di Torres [in Sardinia] (-after 1219). The marriagecontract between"Thomam comitemMaurienne…Amedeo f. dicti comitis" and "Manfredum IImarchionem de Saluciis…Agnetem f. quondam Bonefacii" is dated 28 Apr1213[296]. m firstly (before 1221)MARGUERITE de Bourgogne,daughter of HUGUES III Duke of Burgundy [Capet] & his second wife BéatrixDauphine de Viennois ([1192]-[1228/30] or [1242]). Thetestament of "Guigo Dalphinus, Vienn. et Albonis comitis",dated 27 Jun 1267, confirmed donations made by "…matertera Margaritavel Domina Ducissa avia mea…meæ amitæ quondam comitissæ Sabaudiæ"[297]. It is not clear from this documentwhether "matertera Margarita" and "meæ amitæ quondamcomitissæ Sabaudiæ" refer to the same person as they are named in thecontext of two separate donations in different parts of the testament. The useof "matertera" and "amitæ" as two differentterms to express the relationship "aunt" suggests that they may havebeen different individuals. Valbonnais assumes that they were the same person,"Marguerite sœur du dauphin André" who married "Améfils de Thomas Comte de Savoie", and adds that "la duchesseBeatrix" named "son héritier le Dauphin André son fils…Matildesa fille aînée femme de Jean Comte de Chalon…Marguerite son autre fille époused´Amedée fils du comte de Savoye" in her testament dated 1228[298]. If the suggested second marriage of Comte Amedée is correctlyshown below, Marguerite de Bourgogne must have died in [1228/30]. If it isincorrect, her date of death is estimated to [1242]. [m secondly ([1228/30])MARGUERITE de Viennois,daughter of ANDRE de Bourgogne [Capet] Comte d´Albon, Dauphin & his firstwife Beatrix de Sabran ([1203/07]-[1242]). TheInventoryof the State Archives of Turin[299] mentions a document dated 1230 which refers to the marriage of ComteAmedée with "Marguerite daughter of André dauphin, comte de Viennois",but without giving the context (marriage contract, appointment of proxy etc.). Although her mother is not named, the date of the documentsuggests that it is likely that Marguerite would have been born from her supposedfather's first marriage. However, there is some doubt whether this referencecan be correct. As noted above, two primary sources indicate that Comte AmedéeIV married Marguerite de Bourgogne as his first wife, one source indicatingthat she was still alive in 1228. Marguerite de Viennois would therefore havebeen the niece of Comte Amedée´s first wife. Such a relationship by marriagewould have necessitated a papal dispensation, which may not have been easilyobtained given the closeness of the affinity. In addition, this supposedsecond marriage would have taken place during the papacy of Pope Gregory IX,who is recorded as granting only 11 dispensations during his 14 year reign (6of which related to validating existing marriages), which suggests that he was"averse to dispensing from the impediments of relationship"[300]. Another possibility is that theInventory of State Archivesmistook "daughter" for "sister" in itsextract, and that the 1230 document refers to Comte Amedée´s earlier marriageto Marguerite de Bourgogne. Since writing the above comment, an updatedversion of the onlineState Archives Inventory now suggests that thispossibility may be correct: while the new summary still refers to “Matrimoni. Amedeo IV di Savoia e Margherita figlia di Andrea Delfino conte di Vienna”,a further extract states that the document records that “Margherita diVienne” gave receipt “al fratello Andrea Delfino di Vienne” for thesum bequeathed to her “in testamento dalla madre Beatrice contessa di Vienne”[301]. The original document has not been consulted to verify how this conflictis resolved. Altogether, this possible second marriage, based only on thisindex entry, now looks unlikely to be correct.] m[secondly/thirdly] (contract 22 Nov 1244, by proxy Orange 18 Dec 1244)CECILEdes Baux, daughter of BARRAL Seigneurdes Baux & his wife Béatrice d'Anduze (-21 May 1275). The contract ofmarriage between "Amedeum comitem Sabaudiæ" and "Cæciliam Barralis domini Baucii filiam" is dated18 Dec 1243, witnessed by "Humbertum de Seyssel dominumAquarum…Raymundo de Baucio principe Aurasiæ, Guillelmo de Baucio nepote illius…"[302]. A charter dated 22 Nov 1244 records the agreement for themarriage of“dominum Amedeum comitem Sabaudie”and “dominam Ceciliam, neptem…domini R. comitis Tolosani, filiam…dominiBarralli del Bauz”[303]. A charter dated 18 Dec 1244 confirms the celebration by proxy of the marriagebetween "Amedée IV Comte de Savoie, marquis d'Italie"(represented by "Humbert de Seyssel") and "Cécilefille de Barral de Baux" at the "chapelle Sainte-Maried'Orange", in the presence of "Raymond de Baux I, son neveuRaymond II prince et co-prince d'Orange, Guillaume de Sabran, et B. de Bauxchanoine d'Avignon"[304]. Raymond VII Comte de Toulouse, Marquis de Provence granted all his propertybeyond the Rhône to "sa niece Cécile de Baux, fille de Barral"by charter dated 24 Feb 1241[305],which may explain why Cécile was such a good marriage prospect for the comte de Savoie. A fourth testament of "Amedeuscomes Sabaudie" is dated 19 Sep 1252, appoints "Bonifaciumfilium meum" as his heir, under the tutelage of his brother Thomas,substituting "fratri meo Thome de Sabaudia comitis…Beatricem filiammeam uxorem quondam Manfredi marchionis Salutiarum et Margaretam filiam meamuxorem Bonifacii marchionis Montisferrati", and names "Cecilie…uxorinostre…Beatrix filia mea minor"[306]. Her husband granted her the castles of Momigliano, La Rocchetta,e Terra della Tarantasia for life by charter dated 24 May 1253[307]. A fifth testament of Comte Amedée IV is dated 24 May 1253,appoints "Bonifacius filius suus, sub tutela Thomæ comitis" ashis heir, substitutes "filiæ Amedei comitis…marchionissæ BeatrixSalutiarum et Margaretha Montisferrati", bequeathes "castrumMontis Meliani" to "Cæciliæ comitissæ", and choosesto be buried at Hautecombe[308]. "Amedeus comes Sabaudie" granted"castrum Montis Meliani" to "Cæciliæ comitissæ conjugisuæ" for life, on condition that she allows "Bonifacium filiumex matrimonio eorum procreatum" to live with her[309]. The testament of "Beatricis relictæ Raimundi Berengariicomitis Provinciæ", dated 14 Jan 1264, adds bequests to "…Cæciliærelictæ Amedei Sabaudiæ comitis…"[310]. "Cæciliæ comitissæ relictæ Amedeiquondam comitis Sabaudiæ" donated property by charter dated 19 Jan1268[311]. "Cecilia Vedova del Conte Amedeodi Savoia" granted property which she inherited after the death of"Bonifacio suo figlio" to "Filippo Conte di Savoia e di Borgonia" by charter dated Oct 1268[312]. Comte Amedée IV& his first wife had two children:

a) BEATRIX de Savoie (before 4Mar 1223-10 May before 1259). The marriage contract between "Alaxiam comitissam Saluciarumet Manfredum marchionem Saluciarum eius nepotem" and "Thomamcomitem Maurianæ…neptem suam…Beatrix" is dated 4 Mar 1223[313]. A contract dated 2 Oct 1227 between"Marchese Enrico di Savona" and "ilMarchese Manfredo di Saluzzo" refers to the dowry of "Marchesedi Savona…sua Consorte, figlia di Amedeo figlio del Conte di Savoia"[314]. Beatrix must have born in the early 1220s as she had threechildren by her first husband who died in 1244. TheIstoria of SabaMalaspina records that "Manfredus" married "natamAmadei comitis Sabaudiæ…Beatricem"[315]. TheHistoria Sicula of Bartolomeo di Neocastro recordsthat "Manfredus" married "dominam Beatricem filiamducis Sex Viarum, qui prius in virum…marchionem de Salluciis"[316]. Her second marriage was arranged inrecognition of the alliance between her father and Emperor Friedrich II. A charter dated 8 May 1246 records the restitution of "castri Ripolarum"by Emperor Friedrich II to "fratribus deSabaudia, Amedeo comite et Thoma", confirmed by the betrothal of"Manfredum dictum Lancea, filium naturalem imperatoris" and"Beatricem filiam Amedei comitis, relictam Manfredi marchionisSalucensis"[317]. The proxy of marriage between "Manfredo Lanza di Lui [ImperatorFederico secundo] figlio" and "la Contessa di Saluzzo figlia delConte Amedeo di Savoia" is dated Mar 1247[318]. The contract of marriage between "Manfredi Lanceæ filiiFriderici Rom. Imperatoris" and "Beatrice marchionissaSalutiensi, filia Amedei comitis Sabaudiæ et in Italia marchionis, relictaManfredi marchionis Salutiarum" is dated 21 Apr 1247[319]. A fourth testament of "Amedeus comes Sabaudie"is dated 19 Sep 1252, appoints "Bonifacium filium meum" as hisheir, under the tutelage of his brother Thomas, substituting "fratrimeo Thome de Sabaudia comitis…Beatricem filiam meam uxorem quondam Manfredimarchionis Salutiarum et Margaretam filiam meam uxorem Bonifacii marchionisMontisferrati", and names "Cecilie…uxori nostre…Beatrix filiamea minor"[320]. A fifth testament of Comte Amedée IV is dated 24 May 1253, appoints "Bonifaciusfilius suus, sub tutela Thomæ comitis" as his heir, substitutes "filiæAmedei comitis…marchionissæ Beatrix Salutiarum et Margaretha Montisferrati",bequeathes "castrum Montis Meliani" to "Cæciliæcomitissæ", and chooses to be buried at Hautecombe[321]. The absence of any reference to Beatrix´s current husband KingManfred suggests a breakdown in their marriage. mfirstly (betrothed 4 Mar 1223 and 2 Oct 1227, Mar 1233)MANFREDOIII Marchese di Saluzzo, son ofBONIFAZIO di Saluzzo & his wife Maria di Torres [in Sardinia] (-29 Oct 1244). m secondly(Betrothed 8 May 1246, by proxy Mar 1247, contract 21 Apr 1247, [Dec 1248/Jan1249]) as his first wife,MANFRED vonHohenstaufen, illegitimate son of Emperor FRIEDRICH II King of Sicily& his mistress Bianca Lancia (Venosa 1232-killed in battle Benevento 26 Feb1266). At the time of his marriage, his fatherconstituted him Lord of territory from Pavia to Genoa. He succeeded asPrincipe di Tarento in 1250 on the death of his father. Regent of Sicily in 1254, he was crownedMANFREDOKing of Sicily at Palermo 10 Aug 1258.

b) MARGUERITE de Savoie ([1224/28]-after 14 Jan 1264). "Thomas comes Maurianæ" donated property to "BonifacioMarchioni Montisferrati" by way of dowry of "Margarethæ futuræuxoris Bonifacii et filiæ Amedei Sabaudia primogeniti Thomæ comitis"by charter dated 18 Jan 1228[322]. It is unlikely that Marguerite was born much later than1228 as her mother was at that date already at least 36 years old, andMarguerite herself had at least three children before she died in 1254. The date of her marriage is confirmed by a charter dated 18 Nov1235, which confirmed a pact between her father and the bishop of Torino, approved by"domina Margarita eius filia…uxor dom.Bonifacii marchionis Montisferrati"[323]. "Bonifacius marchio Montisferrati" donatedproperty to "uxori suæ Margarethæ, Amadei comitis Sab. filiæ"by charter dated 9 Dec 1235[324]. A fourth testament of "Amedeus comes Sabaudie" is dated 19 Sep1252, appoints "Bonifacium filium meum" as his heir, under thetutelage of his brother Thomas, substituting "fratri meo Thome deSabaudia comitis…Beatricem filiam meam uxorem quondam Manfredi marchionisSalutiarum et Margaretam filiam meam uxorem Bonifacii marchionis Montisferrati",and names "Cecilie…uxori nostre…Beatrix filia mea minor"[325]. A fifth testament of Comte Amedée IV is dated 24 May 1253,appoints "Bonifacius filius suus, sub tutela Thomæ comitis" ashis heir, substitutes "filiæ Amedei comitis…marchionissæ BeatrixSalutiarum et Margaretha Montisferrati", bequeathes "castrumMontis Meliani" to "Cæciliæ comitissæ", and choosesto be buried at Hautecombe[326]. The testament of"BonefaciusMontisferrati marchio", dated 12 Jun 1253, bequeathes property to "Alaxinamfiliam meam inpuberem", appoints "Guilelminum filium meuminpuberem" as his heir, substituting in turn "Alaxinam…filiamea" and "Tomam de Saluciis", if his son diedchildless, and appoints "dominam Margaritam comitissam uxorem meamatrem ipsius Guilelmini et dominum comitem de Sabaldia et dominum Tomam deSabaldia fratrem suum et Dalfinum de Vianesio et dominum Jacobum de Careto etdominum Georgium et dominum Manuellem de Ceva et Bastardinum de Monteferrato"as guardians of his son[327]. Her second marriage is shown inEuropäischeStammtafeln[328],although this is inconsistent with her dying in 1254 as shown in another table[329]. The primary source which confirms her second marriage has not yetbeen identified. The marriage is not given by Jules Chevalier[330]. It is possible that the dispensation wasissued but that the marriage never actually took place. The testament of "Beatricis relictæ Raimundi Berengariicomitis Provinciæ", dated 14 Jan 1264, adds bequests to "…Margarithæmatri marchionis Montisferrati nepti suæ…"[331]. m [firstly] (Betrothed 18 Jan 1228, before 18 Nov1235)BONIFACIO IIMarchese di Monferrato, son ofGUGLIELMOVI Marchese di Monferrato & his second wife Berta di Clavesana(-[12 Jun 1253/10 Dec 1255]).

Comte Amedée IV & his [second/third] wife had four children:

c) BONIFACE de Savoie (-Turin [7 Jun] 1263, bur Saint-Jean de Maurienne, transferred to Saint-Michel de la Cluse). A fourth testament of "Amedeus comes Sabaudie"is dated 19 Sep 1252, appoints "Bonifacium filium meum" as hisheir, under the tutelage of his brother Thomas, substituting "fratrimeo Thome de Sabaudia comitis…Beatricem filiam meam uxorem quondam Manfredimarchionis Salutiarum et Margaretam filiam meam uxorem Bonifacii marchionisMontisferrati", and names "Cecilie…uxori nostre…Beatrix filiamea minor"[332]. A fifth testament of Comte Amedée IV is dated 24 May 1253, appoints "Bonifaciusfilius suus, sub tutela Thomæ comitis" as his heir, substitutes "filiæAmedei comitis…marchionissæ Beatrix Salutiarum et Margaretha Montisferrati",bequeathes "castrum Montis Meliani" to "Cæciliæcomitissæ", and chooses to be buried at Hautecombe[333]. "Amedeus comes Sabaudie"granted "castrum Montis Meliani" to "Cæciliæ comitissæconjugi suæ" for life, on condition that she allows "Bonifaciumfilium ex matrimonio eorum procreatum" to live with her He succeeded his father in 1253 asBONIFACE"Roland" Comte de Savoie. He led campaigns in Flanders and Piemonte which weredisastrous for Savoy[334].

d) BEATRIX de Savoie (-Escalona Nov1290 or 23 Feb 1292). A fourthtestament of "Amedeus comes Sabaudie" is dated 19 Sep 1252,appoints "Bonifacium filium meum" as his heir, under thetutelage of his brother Thomas, substituting "fratri meo Thome deSabaudia comitis…Beatricem filiam meam uxorem quondam Manfredi marchionisSalutiarum et Margaretam filiam meam uxorem Bonifacii marchionis Montisferrati",and names "Cecilie…uxori nostre…Beatrix filia mea minor"[335]. Amedée IV Comte de Savoie granted money to"Beatrici juniori, filiæ suæ e Cecilia prognatæ",at the request of "Cæciliæ uxoris suæ", by charter dated 28May 1253[336]. Zurita records the betrothal of “Infante Don Iayme”and “una hija del Conde Amadeo de Saboya...Beatriz” in 1263[337]. The testament of "Beatricisrelictæ Raimundi Berengarii comitis Provinciæ", dated 14 Jan 1264,orders "Contissona filia Amedei comitis…" to fulfil religiousbequests[338]. The following reference shows that Beatrix was known as "Contesson". "Contessa Beatrice detta Contesson figlia del fu Conte Amedeo di Savoia e della Contessa Cecilia" renounced her rights ofsuccession with the consent of her mother and "Pietro Boverio di Lei Marito" in favour of "Conte Filippo di Savoia di LeiPatruo" by contract dated 21 Oct 1268[339]. Pope Clement IV wrote 11 Aug 1266 to"Jacobo…filii…Regis Aragonum" requiring him to comply with themarriage contract with "filiam B. natam bonæ memoriæ Comitis Sabaudiæ"[340]. Although this document does not name the Comte de Savoie in question, ComteAmedée IV was the only one who was recently deceased ("bonæ memoriæ")at the date of the letter. If this is correct, the betrothed must have beenhis daughter Beatrix, the only one whose name began with the letter b. Under another testament dated 7 May 1268, "Petrus comesSabaudia" granted bequests to "…B. filiam Amedeicomitis…fratris nostri quondam…"[341]. "Pietro Bovero figlio del Conte Gioanni di Borgogna e Signore di Salins" donated property to "Beatrice figlia del Conte Amedeo di Savoia sua future Sposa" by contractdated "la Festa di S. Luca 1269"[342]. The primary source which confirms her second marriage has not yetbeen identified. TheChronicon Domini JoannisEmmanuelis records the marriage in 1275 of “Infans Dns Emmanuel cumComitissa” in the same month as the death of his son Alfonso[343]. TheChronicon Domini Joannis Emmanuelis records the deathin Nov 1290 of “Comitissa, mater Dni Joannis, in Escalona”[344]. Betrothed (1263, contract broken before 11 Aug 1266) toInfantedon JAIME de Aragón, son of JAIME I "el Conquistador" King ofAragon & his second wife Iolanda of Hungary (Barcelona [or Montpellier?] 1243-Palma de Mallorca 29 May 1311). He succeeded his father in 1276 asJAIME II King of Mallorca. m firstly (21 Oct1268)PIERRE"le Bouvier"de SalinsSeigneur de Châtelbelin, son ofJEAN I "l'Antique/le Sage" Seigneur de Salins[Bourgogne-Comté] & his second wife Isabelle de Courtenay (-[21 Jul 1272/29 Apr 1274]). msecondly (1275) as his second wife,Infantedon MANUEL de Castilla y León, Señor de Escalona yPeñafiel, son of FERNANDO III “el Santo” King of Castile & his first wifeElisabeth von Hohenstaufen (Carrión de los Condes 1234-Peñafiel 25 Dec 1283,bur Uclés, Santiago convent).

e) ELEONORE de Savoie. She is not mentioned ineither the 19 Sep 1252 or 24 May 1253 testaments of her father[345], which suggests that she may have born posthumously, in which caseshe must have been the twin of her sister Constance. The testament of "BeatriceVedova del Re Berengario Conte di Provenza" dated 14 Jan 1264 makesbequests "…a Contesson…più ad Eleonora altra sua figlia…"[346]. The primary source which confirms hermarriage has not yet been identified. m (1269)GUICHARDde Forez, son of RENAUD Comte de Forez [Albon] & his wife Isabelle Dame de Beaujeu.

f) CONSTANCE de Savoie (-[before14 Jan 1264]). Guichenon names Constance as daughter of Comte Amedée IV,adding that she died unmarried[347]. The primary source which confirms her parentage has not yet beenidentified. She is not mentioned in either the 19 Sep 1252 or 24 May 1253 testamentsof her father[348],which suggests that she may have born posthumously, in which case she must havebeen the twin of her sister Eléonore. She probably died before 14 Jan 1264,the date of the testament of "Beatrice Vedova del Re Berengario Contedi Provenza" under which her two older sisters received bequests andin which she is not named[349].

2. HUMBERT de Savoie ([1198]-in Hungary 1223). "ThomasMaurianensis comes et marchio" donated property to the abbey ofSaint-Maurice, with the consent of "filiis suis Amedeo et Humberto",by charter dated 8 Nov 1217[350]. An indication of Humbert´s precarious financial position is provided by a thirdtestament, dated 2 Nov 1240, made by Thomas´s son"Amadeuscom Sab. et marchio in Italia" who repeated the nomination of "Thomæ,Flandriæ comiti, fratri suo" as his heir to "totius comitatussui Sabaudiæ marchionatus Italiæ et ducatus Chablasii" if he diedwithout male children, on condition that he satisfied all the debts of "Thomæcomitis patris et Humberti fratris ipsorum"[351]. The testament of "Thomas de Sabaudia comes"dated 26 Jun 1248 remembers the souls of "bonæ memoriæ Thoma quondamcomite Sabaudiæ patre meo…fratribus meis Umberto…Aymone et Vuillermo quondamelecto Valentinensi"[352]. Europäische Stammtafeln[353]shows two sons of Comte Thomas I both namedHumbert, without any dates of birth or death for the second. The 26 Jun 1248testament of Humbert's brother Thomas de Savoie[354] includes bequests for masses for the souls of his "latebrothers Humbert, Aimon, Guillaume", indicating that there was onlyone brother of each name.

3. AYMON de Savoie ([1200]-1242). "M. comitissaMaurian. uxor Thomæ comitis Maurianensis et marchionis Italiæ" donatedproperty, with the consent of "Thomas com. Maurianæ et filii meiAmedeus et Aymo", by charter dated Dec 1227[355]. "M. comitissa Sabaudie etmarchisa in Ytalia et…Amedeus, Aymo, W. electus Valentinus, Thomas, Petrus,Bonifacius et Philippus filii Thome Comitis Sab. et marchionis in Ytalia"confirmed donations to Hautecombe abbey by charter dated 26 Feb 1231[356]. "Beatrix uxor comitis Thomæ,Amadeus primogenitus et Aymo filii eius" confirmed the purchase ofChambéry by "Thoma comite" by charter dated 1232, with theseal of "Beatricis comitisse Sabaudie"[357]. "Haymo filius quondam bonæmemoriæ Thome com. Sab. et march. in Italia" donated property toHautecombe by charter dated 1233[358]. A charter dated 23 Jul 1234 records an agreement between"Amedeum comitem Sabaudie" and "Aymonem etPetrum fratres ipsius" in settlement of a dispute concerning theirpaternal inheritance[359]. The disagreement must have persisted, at least in the case of Aymon, as he wasdisinherited under the testament of"Amedeicomitis Sab. et marchionis Italie", dated 23 Sep 1235, which appointedhis younger brother "Thomam fratrem suum" as his heir "incomitatu et marchionatu" in default of male children[360]. Seigneur d´Agaune. "Aymo dominusAgaunensis frater comitis Sabaudie" confirmed a donation to Hautecombeabbey by charter dated Oct 1235[361]. Seigneur de Chablais. "Aymo de Sabaudia dominusde Chablasio, filius bonæ mem.Thomæ, ill. Sabaud.comitis" founded the hospital of Villeneuve,for the souls of and with the support of his mother and four brothers (allnamed) by charter dated 25 Jun 1236[362]. The mention of his older brother suggests that the dispute withAymon had been resolved by this date. Nevertheless, Aymon is also passed overas heir in the second testament of his older brother"Amedeuscomes Sabaudie" dated 19 Jul 1238, which repeats the nomination of"Thomam fratrem suum" as his heir, substituting "Philippum,huic autem Petrum fratres suos" if Thomas died without male heirs[363]. An indication of the precarious financial position of the countsof Savoy is provided by a third testament, dated 2 Nov 1240, made by Thomas´sson"Amadeus com Sab. et marchio in Italia"who repeated the nomination of "Thomæ, Flandriæ comiti, fratri suo"as his heir to "totius comitatus sui Sabaudiæ marchionatus Italiæ etducatus Chablasii" if he died without male children, on condition thathe satisfied all the debts of "Thomæ comitis patris et Humberti fratrisipsorum"[364]. This charter suggests that financial considerations may have played their partin Aymon´s continued disinheritance in favour of his brother Thomas, the latterhaving made a profitable marriage with the Ctss of Flanders. The testament of"Thomas de Sabaudia comes" dated 26 Jun 1248 remembers thesouls of "bonæ memoriæ Thoma quondam comite Sabaudiæ patremeo…fratribus meis Umberto…Aymone et Vuillermo quondam electo Valentinensi"[365]. Europäische Stammtafeln[366]shows two sons of Comte Thomas I both namedAymon, without any dates of birth or death for the second. Seigneur de Chillon, de Villeneuve et de Chablais. He died ofleprosy.

4. GUILLAUME de Savoie([1201]-poisoned Viterbo 1 Nov 1239, bur Abbaye de Hautecombe). A charter dated1224 records an agreement between "Thomæ com. Sabaud " and thebishop of Sion, witnessed by "ipse Thomas comes, Amedeus primogenitusillius, Comitissa uxor Thomæ, eorum quatuor filii clerici…Willelmus, Thomas,Petrus et Bonifacius"[367]. ElectedBishopof Valence 1224. The Chronicle of Alberic deTrois-Fontaines records that "alter filiorum eius [comitis Thome de Sabaudia] Guilelmus" was elected bishop of Valence[368]. "M. comitissa Sabaudie et marchisa in Ytalia et…Amedeus,Aymo, W. electus Valentinus, Thomas, Petrus, Bonifacius et Philippus filiiThome Comitis Sab. et marchionis in Ytalia" confirmed donations toHautecombe abbey by charter dated 26 Feb 1231[369]. He was named in the Feb 1233 testament of his brother Pierre[370]. The Annals of Dunstable record that “electusValenciæ, avunculus reginæ nostræ” arrived in England in 1237 and was madethe king´s principle adviser (“consiliarius regis principalis”) andgranted the honor of Richmond[371]. Matthew of Paris records that he wasadviser to Henry III King of England but left the country after quarrellingwith the barons, but was permitted to return by the king[372], which represents the earliest reference in this source to theproblems caused by relations of Queen Eléonore. The king proposed his electionas Bishop of Winchester in 1238, but the church council elected Ralph Neville, whose election was quashed by the Pope after intervention by the king[373]. He was electedBishopof Liège in 1238. The Chronicle of Alberic deTrois-Fontaines records the election “in crastino sancti Iohannis” in1238 of the new bishop of Liège, where “primicerius MetensisIacobus...prepositus Leodiensis et frater ducis de Nanceio” supported thecandidacy of “preposito Ottoni Aquensi”, while “archdyaconus...Galtherusfrater comitis de Retest” supported “fratri comitis Flandrie...electoValentie Guillelmo”. The same source records that “ille de Traiecto velde Aquis” was elected first by “Conradum Coloniensem electum et perConradum filium imperatoris et per ipsum imperatorem”, while “electusValencie” was visiting Cremona where he also received “regalia sua abimperatore”. Both candidates then went to Rome where the Pope annulled theelection of “pontifex Traiectensem Ottonem” and confirmed “electumValentie Guillelmum” as bishop of Liège[374]. Matthew Paris records the death "die omnium Sanctorum…venenatusViterbii" in 1239 of "Guillelmus de Sabaudia electusValentinus"[375]. The Chronicle of Hautecombe records the death in 1239 of"dominus Guillermus de Sabaudia electus Valencie"and his burial "III Non Mai" (presumably in 1240)[376]. TheAegidii Aurævallensis GestaEpiscoporum Leodiensium records the death “in partibus Transalpinis”in Oct 1239 of Bishop Guillaume and his burial “in civitate Florentia”[377]. The testament of "Philippi de Sabaudia electi Lugdunensis",dated 26 May 1256, names "Petrus de Sabaudia frater et Beatrixcomitissa Provinciæ" as his heirs, chooses burial at Hautecombe, andfounds an anniversary at Valence for the soul of "defuncti fratris suiWillelmi, electi illius ecclesiæ"[378].

5. THOMAS de Savoie (Châteaude Montmélian [1202]-Chambéry 7 Feb 1259, bur Aosta Cathedral). The Chronicle of Albericde Trois-Fontaines records that "tertius [filiorum comitis Thome de Sabaudia] Thomas" was "cassatus de episcopatu Laurensi etarchiepiscopatu Lugdunensis"[379]. He succeeded in 1253 asTHOMAS IIComte de Savoie, as regent or co-ruler with his nephew.

Dni Fuciniaci"and names "Dni Wi electi Valent. et Ay de Sabaudiafratrum"[382]. A charter dated 23 Jul 1234 records an agreementbetween"Amedeum comitem Sabaudie" and"Aymonem et Petrum fratres ipsius" in settlement of a disputeconcerning their paternal inheritance[383].

He wasseized and imprisoned in [1237] by the sons of Guillaume II Comte de Genève, for which Pierre was later compensated with the castle of Arlod and 20,000 marks of silver (reduced to 10,000 marks in 1250). Thesecond testament of"Amedeus comes Sabaudie",dated 19 Jul 1238, repeats the nomination of "Thomam fratrem suum"as his heir, substituting "Philippum, huic autem Petrum fratres suos"if Thomas died without male heirs[384], although it is unclear why the youngest brother Philippe shouldhave been given precedence over Pierre in this document. Matthew of Paris records that Henry III King of England, married to his niece Eléonore de Provence, gave him the honour of Richmond 20 Apr 1240, invited him to England towards the end of the same year and knighted him 5 Jan 1241[385]. On the death of his brother Aymon in 1242, he received the townsof Milden and Romont[386]. "Peter de Sabaudia" was granted the"honour of Richemund" dated 20 Apr 1240[387]. Although known popularly as Earl ofRichmond, this title was never accorded him officially. King Henry IIImade him numerous grants between 1241 and 1249, including creating himConstable of the castles of Lewes and Rochester and Warden of the Cinque Ports,and granting him a house in London, on the site of which the Savoy Hotel waslater built[388]. "The king´s uncle Peter de Sabaudia"was granted numerous manors in Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire in the honour of Richmond, with the right toassign them to "any of his brothers or kinsmen", dated 6 May1241[389]. A charter dated 1244 confirmed the peace agreement reached between the bishopof Lausanne and"Amadeus comes Sabaudie et inItalia marcho et…Petrus de Sabaudia…frater suus"[390]. "Peter de Sabaudia the king´suncle" was granted "houses on the Thames…in the street calledla Straunde" [presumably located on the site later occupied by theSavoy Hotel] dated 12 Feb 1246[391]. Matthew of Paris records in 1246 that Pierre de Savoie brought foreign girls to England as brides for English nobles, whichwas widely criticised in England[392]. He invaded Dauphiné in 1250, forcing the Seigneur de la Tour duPin to become his vassal. An arbitral judgment dated 16 Feb 1254 settled adispute between"Conte Amedeo di Savoia…Tomasosuo fratello, il Conte Bonifacio suo figlio pupillo, e Pietro di Savoia Zio diquesto" under which the last-named claimed the fifth part of assetswhich belonged to "Conte Tomaso suo Padre, Aymone, e Guglielmo suoifratelli, della di Lui Madre, e di di due Sorelle morte ab intestato",under whichChillon, Conthey, Saillon and lands inChablais and Valais were awarded to Pierre[393]. The testament of"Petride Sabaudia", dated 8 Jun 1255 at London, names "Beatrix filiasua…Eleonora Angliæ regina…Philippum electrum Lugdunensem fratrem suum,Agneti…Fuciniacensi uxori suæ", and names Henry III King of Englandas his executor[394]. Back in England, he at first supported the barons in their dispute with King Henry, but changed sides and reconciled the king with his son in 1260, helpingto induce Henry to disregard the Provisions of Oxford in 1261. He was obligedto leave England in 1262 due to the growing hostility towards foreigners, hisEnglish lands were confiscated but later restored to him by the king[395]. He succeeded his nephew in 1263 asPIERRE II "le Petit-Charlemagne"Comte de Savoie. His great-nephew, Richard Earl of Cornwall, confirmed Comte Pierre as Imperial Vicar in Italyafter his installation as King of the Romans in 1263[396]. The testament of "Beatricis relictæ Raimundi Berengariicomitis Provinciæ", dated 14 Jan 1264, confirms her previoustestaments appointing "…fratrum suorum Bonifacii archiepiscopi Cantuar.et Petri comitis Sabaudiæ" as her heirs[397]. Comte Pierre campaigned against the Bishop of Sion in 1265/66,and against Rudolf I Graf von Habsburg in 1265/67. Comte Pierre increased thefamily's domains considerably through conquests in western Switzerland, mainly at the expense of the Comte de Genève. He also increased his authorityover many local seigneuries by appointing local châtelains and baillis whoreported directly to him[398].

Under another testament dated 7 May 1268, "Petrus comesSabaudia" appointed "filiam nostrum B. Dalphinam de Vienneisio"as his heir[419]. She succeeded her mother in 1268 as Dame de Faucigny,the territory strengthening considerably the power of the Dauphiné de Viennois. The testament of "Agnetis dominæFuciniaci", dated 9 Aug 1268, appointed "Beatricem comitissamViennensem et Albonensem filiam suam" as her heir[420].

7. BEATRIX de Savoie([1205]-Dec 1266 or 4 Jan 1267). Matthew of Parisnames her as daughter of "comitis Sabaldiæ Thomæ iam mortui, sororemcomitis Sabaldiæ adhuc viventis Amidei", when he records the marriageof her daughter to Henry III King of England[427]. It is improbable that she was born muchlater than 1205 as she gave birth to her first child in 1221. The contract ofmarriage between "Thomas…comes Sabaldie et marchio in Ytalia…filia sua"and "Raimundi Berengarii…comitis Provinciæ et Forcalquerii" isdated 5 Jun 1219, and names "A. et V. filii Thomæ comitis et A.cometissa uxor eius" as guarantors[428]. She transformed the court at Aix into one of the most celebratedin Europe. After quarrelling with her son-in-law Charles Comte d'Anjou overthe usufruct of the county of Provence she retired to Echelles in Savoy[429]. The marriage of her daughter Eléonore with Henry III King of England in 1236 signalled the establishment of close ties between theEnglish court and the house of Savoy, the foreign immigrants becomingincreasingly unpopular in England and contributing to the difficultiesexperienced by the king with his barons. The testament of "Beatricisrelictæ Raimundi Berengarii comitis Provinciæ", dated 14 Jan 1264,confirms her previous testaments appointing "Reginarum filiarum suarumMargarethæ Franciæ et Alienoræ Angliæ, fratrum suorum Bonifacii archiepiscopiCantuar. et Petri comitis Sabaudiæ" as her heirs, chooses burial"in hospitali Scalarum", and adds bequests to "Philippoelecto Lugdun. fratri suo altero…Agneti comitissæ Sabaudiæ dominiæ Fuciniaci,Cæciliæ relictæ Amedei Sabaudiæ comitis, Beatrici relictæ Thomæ de Sabaudiacomitis...Contissoni…Eleonoræ aliæ filiæ Thomæ comitis…Contissoni dominæMedullionis nepti suæ…Margarithæ matri marchionis Montisferrati nepti suæ,Rodulpho archiepiscopo Tarantas, A. episcopo de Dyone consanguineo testatricis,Petro episcopo Hereford…filiabus Rodolphi et Henrici de Gebennis, et filiædomini de Camera" as well as numerous bequests to religiousinstitutions, orders "Contissona filia Amedei comitis…Eleonoræ filiæThomæ fratris sui" to fulfil religious bequests, and appoints "Johannemarchiepiscopum Viennensem et Rodulphum Tarantasiensem, Philippum electumLugdun. fratrem suum, episcopum Gratianopolitanum, Humbertum abbatem Altacumbæet Stephanum archidiaconum Cantaruensium" as her executors[430]. A second testament of "Beatrix relicta…Dom. ReymundiBerengarii comitis provinciæ", dated 22 Feb 1264, chooses burial"in ecclesia Hospitalis S. Joannis Hierosolymitani", addsbequests to "Thomam Amedeum et Ludovicum filios quondam Dom. Thomefratris mei…Alienore filie predicti comitis Thome…filie Contissone deMedullione…filie domini de Camera…Beringarie filie Dom. Benedicti deCastellione…Beatrice Andegavie comitisse"[431].

8. BONIFACE de Savoie(Château de Sainte-Hélène du Lac [1206]-Château de Sainte-Hélène-des-Millières14 Jul 1270, bur Abbaye de Hautecombe). A charter dated 1224records an agreement between "Thomæ com. Sabaud " and thebishop of Sion, witnessed by "ipse Thomas comes, Amedeus primogenitusillius, Comitissa uxor Thomæ, eorum quatuor filii clerici…Willelmus, Thomas,Petrus et Bonifacius"[434]. Europäische Stammtafeln[435]shows two sons of Comte Thomas I both named Boniface, the second being"prior at Nantua". As in the case of his other supposed brotherswith duplicate names, it is likely that the references are to the same person. The absence of a second Boniface in the 26 Jun 1248 testament of his supposedbrother Thomas de Savoie[436]provides a good indication that this is correct. In addition, the 1224agreement between his supposed father and the Bishop of Sion refers to "fourclerical sons", whereas the second Boniface would have been a fifth. "M. comitissa Sabaudie et marchisa in Ytalia et…Amedeus, Aymo, W.electus Valentinus, Thomas, Petrus, Bonifacius et Philippus filii Thome ComitisSab. et marchionis in Ytalia" confirmed donations to Hautecombe abbeyby charter dated 26 Feb 1231[437].

The testament of "Bonifaciusarchiepiscopus Cantuarensis", dated 11 Oct 1264, chose burial "infraecclesiam Christi Cantuar" if he died in England and "Pontiniacum"if he died elsewhere overseas and if he died "circa MontemCinisium…apud Altam Combam",made bequests to"sorori suæ comitissæ Provinciæ…sorori suæ alteræ comitissæ deQuiborc…fratri suo Dom. P. comiti Sabaudiæ…fratri suo Philippo elect.Lugdun…filios fratris testatoris Thomæ comitis" as well as to numerousreligious foundations[442]. The Continuator of Florence of Worcester records thedeath "XV Kal Aug apud Baleys" of "Bonifacius Cantuarensis archiepiscopus"[443].

She is not mentioned in the 11 Oct 1264testament of her supposed brother Boniface Archbishop of Canterbury (whichrefers to his "sister the Ctss of Provence" and his "othersister the Ctss of Quibourc")[461], although this is not conclusive to dismiss her affiliation. Onepossibility is that Alix was the illegitimate daughter of Comte Thomas I.]

13. [AGATHEde Savoie(-after 1279). Guichenon names Agathe as daughter of Comte Thomas Iand his wife, stating that she was nun and later abbess of Saint-Pierre, Lyonin 1279, referring to "Titre de l´abbaye de Saint-Pierre de Lyon"with no precise citation reference[462]. She is not mentioned in the 11 Oct 1264testament of her supposed brother Boniface Archbishop of Canterbury (whichrefers to his "sister the Ctss of Provence" and his "othersister the Ctss of Quibourc")[463], although this is not conclusive to dismiss her affiliation. Onepossibility is that Agathe was the illegitimate daughter of Comte Thomas I.]

14. MARGUERITE de Savoie ([1212]-1/2 Sep 1270 or 1273[464]). The contract of marriage between"Thomas comes Savoyæ…filiam suam Margaritham…infra nubiles annos"and "comiti Hartmanno filio comitis Ulrici de Kyburg" is dated1 Jun 1218, stating that "Dni Bertholdi comitis de Novocastro et DniWilhelmi de Stavayé" acted as guarantors, and with the consent of"Ulricus comes de Kyburg et comes Garnerius frater eius et comitissauxor comitis de Kyburg"[465]. Her marriage date is confirmed by the charter dated 1230 underwhich her husband"H. comes de Kiburch"confirmed donations "propter nuptias uxori sue filie comitis Sabaudie",with the consent of "fratris sui Ul. Constantiensis canonici et H.filii fratris sui beate memorie Wer. quondam comitis de Kiburch"[466]. TheChronicon Colmarenserecords that "comes…[Kiburc]" married "filiam comitis de Sabaudia"[467]. "Conte Amedeo di Savoia Marchese in Italia" donated "Castello di Monteuz" to"Contessa di KibourgMargarita di Savoia sua Sorella" by charter dated "Festa di S. Gallo 1239"[468].

The same collection includes several other chartersrelating to this grant, dated between 9 Jul 1241 and 1243[472]. The testament of "Bonifaciusarchiepiscopus Cantuarensis", dated 11 Oct 1264, made bequests to"sorori suæ comitissæ Provinciæ…sorori suæ alteræ comitissæ de Quiborc…"[473]. Under another testament dated 7 May 1268, "Petrus comesSabaudia" granted bequests to "…domine Margarete comitisse deQuiburgo…sorori nostre…"[474]. According toEuropäische Stammtafeln[475],Marguerite de Savoie married secondly Eberhard von Habsburg-Laufenburg, son of Rudolf III Graf von Habsburg-Laufenburg & his wife Gertrud von Regensberg. Apartfrom the unlikelihood of Graf Eberhard (who at the time must have been at least40 years old) marrying as his first wife a lady over 50 years old, his marriageto Anna heiress of Kyburg is recorded[476] as having taken place in [30 Oct/12 Dec] 1271 when Marguerite wasstill alive. In addition, theChronicle of Hautecombe refers toMarguerite as "Margarita comitissa de Quiborch in Alemania"when she died, with no mention of Habsburg-Laufenburg. m(contract Mouden 1Jun 1218, 1230)HARTMANN von Kiburg,son of ULRICH Graf von Kyburg & his wife Anna von Zähringen [Baden](-27 Nov 1264, bur Wettingen). He succeeded in 1227 asHARTMANN III jointGraf von Kiburg.

Comte Thomas I had [four] illegitimate children by unknown mistresses:

15. BERAUD (-after Jun 1263). Guichenon states that Berold and Benoît wereillegitimate sons of Comte Thomas I, adding that they swore homage to Pierre IComte de Savoie at Aiguebelle in Jun 1263 (without citing the correspondingprimary source)[477].

16. BENOÎT (-after Jun 1263). Guichenon states that Berold and Benoît wereillegitimate sons of Comte Thomas I, adding that they swore homage to Pierre IComte de Savoie at Aiguebelle in Jun 1263 (without citing the correspondingprimary source)[478].

17. [AMEDEE (-19 Jan 1256). Europäische Stammtafeln[479] shows two sons of Comte Thomas I both namedAmedée, the second one being a monk at Grenoble andBishop of Maurienne in1220. It is unlikely that this second Amedée was the legitimate son of ComteThomas. He is not referred to in the 26 Jun 1248 testament of his supposedbrother Thomas de Savoie[480], unlike all the other known brothers whether deceasedor alive. In addition, the 1224 agreement between his supposed father and theBishop of Sion refers to "four clerical sons", whereas Amedéewould have been a fifth. A possible explanation is that this second Amedée wasan illegitimate son of Comte Thomas I. However, this hypothesis appearsdisproved by the charter dated 12 Jan 1270 which records donations by PierreBishop of Maurienne to found anniversaries for his predecessors "…dominusAmedeus Maurianensis episcopus frater quondam domini Villelmi de Miribello"[481], assuming that the latter refers to thebishop who died in 1256. ThePingonio Chronicon records the death "XIVKal Feb" in 1256 of "Amedeus episcopus Maurianensis"[482].]

18. [AVOIE[Marguerite] deSavoie (-shortly before 14 May 1292). Matthew of Paris reports that "Baldewinus de Ripariis, domina regina procurante, quondam alienigenam ducit in uxorem, Sabaudiensem, ipsius reginæconsanguineam"[483]. According toL'Art de vérifier les Dates[484], Avoie was the daughter of Thomas I Comtede Savoie. The primary source which confirms her name has not yet beenidentified. It is argued in theComplete Peerage [485] that the wife of Baldwin de Reviers, 7th Earl ofDevon, could not have been the daughter of Comte Thomas because she wasreferred to as 'Margaret' in other sources, Comte Thomas I's daughter of thatname being the wife of Hartmann III Graf von Kyburg at the time of the Earl'smarriage. TheComplete Peerage[486] also refers to a writ on the Patent Roll of52 Henry III "from which it appears that the king had given to thedaughter[unnamed]of Thomas, sometime Count of Savoy, 500 marks on hermarriage", this presumably being the widowed Countess of Devon on theoccasion of her second marriage. The date of the writ matches the supposedsecond marriage of Avoie de Savoie. TheComplete Peerage[487] assumes that the Count Thomas in questionmust have been Thomas II. However, the latter's second marriage (from whichall his known surviving legitimate children were born) took place in 1251. This would exclude the Earl and Countess of Devon having a son "Johnwho died an infant"[488]. The possibilities therefore seem to be (a) that theCountess of Devon was the illegitimate daughter of either Comte Thomas I or ofComte Thomas II; (b) that she was the legitimate daughter of Comte Thomas I,called either Avoie or Marguerite despite his having another legitimatedaughter named Marguerite; or (c) that 'Thomas' in the Patent Roll writ was anerror for another Count of Savoy (although it is unclear who this might havebeen as all other possibilities appear to be excluded). It is recognised thatAvoie could not have been born much later than 1220 if she was the legitimatedaughter of Comte Thomas I, and therefore would have been at least 17 yearsolder than her first husband the Earl of Devon. Avoie is not mentioned in the11 Oct 1264 will of her supposed brother Boniface Archbishop of Canterburywhich made bequests to "sorori suæ comitissæ Provinciæ…sorori suæalteræ comitissæ de Quiborc…"[489]. Although this omission is not conclusiveas the testator's other presumed two sisters, abbesses Alix and Agathe, werenot mentioned either, it is somewhat surprising that he would not havementioned a legitimate sister who was then living in England, if he had one. The most likely probability is that Avoie was illegitimate. For presentationpurposes in this document she is shown as the illegitimate daughter of ComteThomas I, but it is recognised that Comte Thomas II is an alternative possiblefather. m firstly (1257)BALDWINde Reviers Earl of Devon, son of BALDWIN de Reviers Earl ofDevon & his wife Amice de Clare (1 Jan 1236-in France 1262 before 13 Sep,bur Breamore Priory, Hampshire).

Some details aboutthe earlier history of the Aguillon family near Chartres are set out by theeditor of the cartulary of Notre-Dame de Josaphat[491].]

THOMAS de Savoie, sonof THOMAS I Comte de Savoie & his wife Marguerite [Beatrix] de Genève(Château de Montmélian [1202]-Chambéry 7 Feb 1259, bur Aosta Cathedral). The Chronicle of Albericde Trois-Fontaines records that "tertius [filiorum comitis Thome de Sabaudia] Thomas" was "cassatus de episcopatu Laurensi etarchiepiscopatu Lugdunensis"[492]. A charter dated 1224 records an agreement between "Thomæcom. Sabaud " and the bishop of Sion, witnessed by "ipseThomas comes, Amedeus primogenitus illius, Comitissa uxor Thomæ, eorum quatuorfilii clerici…Willelmus, Thomas, Petrus et Bonifacius"[493]. Canon at Lausanne 1224/27. Provost of Valence 1227. Canon at Lyon cathedral. "M. comitissa Sabaudie et marchisa inYtalia et…Amedeus, Aymo, W. electus Valentinus, Thomas, Petrus, Bonifacius etPhilippus filii Thome Comitis Sab. et marchionis in Ytalia" confirmeddonations to Hautecombe abbey by charter dated 26 Feb 1231[494]. He resigned his ecclesiastical appointments in 1233. Thetestament of"Amedei comitis Sab. et marchionisItalie", dated 23 Sep 1235, appoints "Thomam fratrem suum"as his heir "in comitatu et marchionatu" in default of malechildren[495]. This document by-passes Thomas´s older brother Aimon. He succeeded asTHOMAS Count of Flanders and Hainaut in 1237, byright of his first wife, but returned to Savoy after she died[496]. The second testament of"Amedeuscomes Sabaudie", dated 19 Jul 1238, repeats the nomination of "Thomamfratrem suum" as his heir, substituting "Philippum, huic autemPetrum fratres suos" if Thomas died without male heirs[497]. An indication of the precarious financial position of the countsof Savoy is provided by a third testament, dated 2 Nov 1240, made by Thomas´sson"Amadeus com Sab. et marchio in Italia"who repeated the nomination of "Thomæ, Flandriæ comiti, fratri suo"as his heir to "totius comitatus sui Sabaudiæ marchionatus Italiæ etducatus Chablasii" if he died without male children, on condition thathe satisfied all the debts of "Thomæ comitis patris et Humberti fratrisipsorum"[498]. This charter suggests that financial considerations may have played their partin Thomas´s appointment as heir, over his older brother Aymon, in light ofThomas´s profitable marriage with the Ctss of Flanders. His brother appointedhimConte [Marchese]del Piemonte in 1247, reserving for himselfthe sovereignty over the territory. The testament of"Thomæde Sabaudia comitis" is dated 26 Jun 1248 and appoints as his heirssuccessively, in default of having his own children, "Petrum, Philippumelectem Lugdunensem, Beatricem Provinciæ comitissam sororem suam…filiummasculum Amadei comitis Sabaudiæ…Bonifacium Archiepiscopum Cantuariæ…Eduardumprimogenitum Henrici Angliæ regis ex Eleonora regina, ipsius Thomæ neptegenitum"[499]. Emperor Friedrich II granted Moncalieri, Castelvecchio and other properties toThomas in Nov 1248 and also appointed him imperial vicar in Italy[500]. He succeeded his brother in 1253 asTHOMAS II Comte de Savoie,as regent or co-ruler with his nephew. "Edmondo Re di Siciliafiglio d'Enrico Re d'Inghilterra" invested "Conte Tomaso diSavoia di Lui Zio" as Principe di Capua by order dated "nellafiesta di S. Dionigio 1254"[501]. This must have been a short-lived and purely honorary appointment asEdmund's appointment as king of Sicily was not confirmed. Matthew of Parisreports that Comte Thomas died by poison[502]. The testament of "Thomas de Sabaudia comes"dated 26 Jun 1248 names "fratribus meis Philippo Lugdunensi Electo etPetro de Sabaudia…sororem meam Beatricem comitissam Provinciæ…filiomasculo…fratris mei Amedei comitis Sabaudiæ…fratri meo Bonifacio ArchiepiscopoCantuariensi…Edmundum filium…domini Henrici regis Angliæ et neptis meæ AlienoræReginæ Angliæ" as his heirs and remembers the souls of "bonæmemoriæ Thoma quondam comite Sabaudiæ patre meo…fratribus meis Umberto…Aymoneet Vuillermo quondam electo Valentinensi"[503].

m firstly (2 Apr 1237, without Papal dispensation despite consanguinitywithin the prohibited degrees[504]) as her second husband,JEANNE Ctss of Flanders and Hainaut,widow ofInfante dom FERNANDO dePortugal,daughter of BAUDOUIN IX Count ofFlanders [BAUDOUIN VI Comte de Hainaut], Emperor of Constantinople & hiswife Marie de Champagne (Valenciennes 1200-Marquette near Lille 5 Dec 1244, burMarquette). TheGenealogica Comitum Flandriæ Bertiniana names (inorder) "Iohannam et Margaretam" as the two daughters of "Balduinus"[505]. TheGenealogica Comitum Flandriæ Bertiniana names"Thome fratri comitis Sabaudie" as husband of "Iohanna",whom she married after the death of "Ferrandus"[506]. TheAnnales Blandinienses record the marriage in1237 of "Iohannam comitissam Flandrie" with "Thomas avunculus reginarum Francie et Anglie"[507]. TheAnnales Blandinienses record the death in 1244of "Iohanna comitissa" and her burial at "Market"[508]. TheNecrologio Sanctæ Waldetrudis records the death "NonDec" of "Iohanne comitisse Flandrie et Hanoie"[509].

m secondly (1251 after Jun)BEATRICE Fiesco,daughter of TEODORO Fiesco Conte di Lavagna & his wife Simona --- (-8/9 Jul1283). Matthew of Paris dates this marriage to 1251 and specifies that thebride (unnamed) was the niece of Pope Innocent IV who arranged her marriagewith Thomas de Savoie, ex-Count of Flanders[510]. The marriage was arranged as part of the process ofreconciliation between Thomas's brother, Amedée IV Comte de Savoie, and Pope Innocent IV following the death of Emperor Friedrich II in 1250[511]. Her dowry consisted of the castles of Rivoli and Viana withVallesuessia[512]. A charter dated 5 Jun 1254 confirms that"BeatrixThomæ comitis uxor" appointed "abbatiam S. Juste Secusiæ"as her universal heir[513]. The testament of "Beatricis relictæ Raimundi Berengarii comitisProvinciæ", dated 14 Jan 1264, adds bequests to "…Beatricirelictæ Thomæ de Sabaudia comitis..."[514]. The testament of "Adalasiæ relictæ Alberti juniorisdomini de Turre Pini et de Coloniaco", dated May 1273, bequeathedproperty to "…domine Comitisse del Borget consanguinee mee…Thome etAmedeo de Sabaudia filiis eiusdem…"[515]. The relationship between Beatrice and the testator has not yetbeen traced. The testament of "Thomas de Sabaudia primogenitus…dominiThomæ de Sabaudia comitis" dated 14 May 1282 makes bequests to "…matrimeæ dominæ B. comitissæ"[516].

Comte Thomas II & his second wife had [six] children:

1. THOMAS de Savoie([1252]-San Ginesio 16 May 1282). His parentageis confirmed by his own testament dated 14 May 1282 in which he is named "TommasoPrimogenito del Conte Tomaso di Savoia"[517]. According toEuropäische Stammtafeln[518], Thomaswas born in Aug 1248 but this is clearly incorrect considering the date of hisparents' marriage which, as noted above, was linked to the reconciliation ofthe Savoy family with Pope Innocent IV which followed the death of Emperor Friedrich II in 1250. Given the enmity between the Papal and imperialfactions during the emperor's lifetime, it is unlikely that Thomas's parents indulged in a premarital relationship. He succeededhis father in 1259 asTHOMAS III Comte de Maurienne,Conte [Marchese]del Piemonte.

2. AMEDEE de Savoie ([1253]-Avignon 16 Oct 1323, bur Hautecombe). A second testament of "Beatrixrelicta…Dom. Reymundi Berengarii comitis provinciæ", dated 22 Feb1264, adds bequests to "Thomam Amedeum et Ludovicum filios quondam Dom.Thome fratris mei…Alienore filie predicti comitis Thome…"[519]. According toEuropäische Stammtafeln[520], ComteAmedée V was born at Bourget-du-Lac 4 Sep 1249 but for the same reasons ascited in relation to the birth of his older brother Thomas (see above), thisdate looks unlikely. He succeeded his uncle in 1285 asAMEDEE V "the Great"Comte de Savoie.

- see below.

3. LOUIS de Savoie([1254]-[10 Jan 1302/27 Apr 1303], maybe 8 Jan 1303). A second testament of "Beatrix relicta…Dom. Reymundi Berengarii comitisprovinciæ", dated 22 Feb 1264, adds bequests to "ThomamAmedeum et Ludovicum filios quondam Dom. Thome fratris mei…Alienore filiepredicti comitis Thome…"[521]. According toEuropäische Stammtafeln[522], Comte Louis was born in Oct 1250 but, for the same reasons as cited in relation tothe birth of his older brother Thomas (see above), this date looks unlikely. Baron de Vaud, Seigneur de Moudon, de Romont, de Rue, de Contrey, de Saillon, de Nyon et d'Aubon in 1286, accorded him by hisbrother.

4. [CONTESSON de Savoie(-after 14 Jan 1264). The testament of "Beatricis relictæ RaimundiBerengarii comitis Provinciæ", dated 14 Jan 1264, adds bequests to"…Contissoni…Eleonoræ aliæ filiæ Thomæ comitis…"[523]. A later passage in the testament orders "Contissona filiaAmedei comitis…Eleonoræ filiæ Thomæ fratris sui" to fulfil religiousbequests. It is not clear therefore whether there is an error in the earlierpart of the transcription which omits a reference to Contesson being thedaughter of Amedée IV Comte de Savoie instead of his brother Thomas. Thesecond testament of "Beatrix relicta…Dom. Reymundi Berengarii comitisprovinciæ", dated 22 Feb 1264, adds bequests to "ThomamAmedeum et Ludovicum filios quondam Dom. Thome fratris mei…Alienore filiepredicti comitis Thome…"[524], which suggests that Thomas left only a single daughter Eléonore.]

5. ELEONORE de Savoie (-24 Aug 1296). The testament of"Beatricis relictæ Raimundi Berengarii comitis Provinciæ",dated 14 Jan 1264, adds bequests to "…Contissoni…Eleonoræ aliæ filiæThomæ comitis…" and orders "Contissona filia Amedeicomitis…Eleonoræ filiæ Thomæ fratris sui" to fulfil religious bequests[525]. A second testament of "Beatrix relicta…Dom. ReymundiBerengarii comitis provinciæ", dated 22 Feb 1264, adds bequests to"Thomam Amedeum et Ludovicum filios quondam Dom. Thome fratrismei…Alienore filie predicti comitis Thome…"[526]. "Amadeo de Sabaudia…Helienora sorore eiusdem"renounced her rights over the county of Savoy in favour of "Thome etAmedei fratrum suorum", with the consent of "domine B.comitisse matris sue", by charter dated 25 May 1273[527].

6. ALIX de Savoie (-1 Aug 1277). The primary source which confirms her parentage hasnot yet been identified.

AMEDEE de Savoie, sonof THOMAS II Conte [Marchese] del Piemonte & his second wife Beatrice Fieschi (Bourget du Lac [1253]-Avignon 16 Oct 1323, bur Hautecombe). A second testament of "Beatrix relicta…Dom.Reymundi Berengarii comitis provinciæ", dated 22 Feb 1264, addsbequests to "Thomam Amedeum et Ludovicum filios quondam Dom. Thomefratris mei…Alienore filie predicti comitis Thome…"[532]. According toEuropäische Stammtafeln[533], ComteAmedée V was born at Bourget-du-Lac 4 Sep 1249 but for the same reasons ascited in relation to the birth of his older brother Thomas (see above), thisdate looks unlikely. The testament of "Adalasiærelictæ Alberti junioris domini de Turre Pini et de Coloniaco", datedMay 1273, bequeathed property to "…domine Comitisse del Borgetconsanguinee mee…Thome et Amedeo de Sabaudia filiis eiusdem…"[534]. He succeeded his uncle in 1285 asAMEDEE V "leGrand"Comte de Savoie, designated by the States-General asprincipal heir of his uncle, in place of his nephew Philippe who was senior inline but an infant. To calm the ambitions of this nephew, and of his ownbrother Louis, he ceded Turin and Pinerolo to the former and Vaud to the latter[535]. After negotiating with the Bishop of Geneva, he declared himselfprotector of Geneva 1 Oct 1285, challenging the authority of the Comte de Genève. He bought the château de Chambéry from Hugues de la Rochette in1295 and established his main residence there, decorating it sumptuously withpaintings by Giorgio d'Aquila[536], Hugonin Frenier and Jean de Grandson. After defeating the Dauphinde Viennois at Bellecombe, he obliged the Dauphin and the Comte de Genève to become his vassals under the Treaty of Annemasse[537]. He settled disputes in the Valais in 1301 with the Bishop ofSion. As a counterweight against continuing friction with the Habsburgs, hestrengthened his alliance with France, receiving the Vicomté de Maulévrier in Normandy. However, following the French conquest of Lyon, Comte Amedée established closerrelations with Emperor Heinrich VII [Luxembourg], who was married to the sisterof Comte Amedée's second wife and who appointed him Imperial Vicar of Lombardy and Conte di Asti[538]. He established suzerainty over the territories of his brother and nephew. Thetestament of "Conte Amedeo di Savoia" dated 27 Sep 1307appoints "Odorado suo figlio primogenito" as sole heir, andmakes bequests to "Aymone suo Secundogenito…ed Eleonora, Margarita, edAgnes sue figlie" as well as additional bequests if he has no malechildren by "Maria di Brabant, sua seconda Consorte" to histwo (unnamed) daughters by his second wife, also naming "suoPrimogenito…Bianca sua futura Sposa"[539]. A 14th century Chronicle of Geneva records the death "XVIIKal Nov…apud Avinionem" of "D. Amedeus comes Sabaudie"and his burial "Altecombe"[540].

m firstly (5 Jul 1272)SIBYLLE[Simone]de BâgéDame de Bâgé et de Bresse, daughter of GUY [II] Seigneur de Bâgé et de Bresse & his wife Dauphine de Saint-Bonnet (posthumously [5 Apr/20 Oct] 1255-28Feb 1294). A charter dated 7 Jul 1272 records that"Alexanderfilius quondam domini Reynaudi domini quondam Baugiaci" appointed"dominus Philippus Sabuadiæ et Burgundiæ comes" as his heir,that "Reynaudus frater Alexandri" had died intestate, that"Sybillam filiam quondam domini Guidonis domini quondam Baugiacifratris quondam dictorum Alexandri et Reynaudi" claimed theinheritance, and sets out the settlement of the dispute[541]. "Dauphine dame de Saint-Bonnet",on the marriage of "sa fille Sibille avec Amedée de Savoie seigneur deBâgé", granted "le château de Miribel en Forez" toher daughter by charter dated May 1275[542]. "Dauphine dame de Saint-Bonnet le Château, femme de Pierrede la Roue chevalier" confirmed her donation of "le château deMiribel en Forez" to her daughter "Sibille femme d´Amedée deSavoie seigneur de Bâgé" by charter dated Mar 1276[543].

As Marie's second daughter gave birth to her first child in 1320,it is likely that Marie herself was born in the early part of the date range[1278/85] and that she married before 1300.

Inhis testament dated 28 Dec 1374, [his father] Humbert [I] appointed his sonHumbert [II] "héritier universel”[728]. Seigneur d’Arvillars.

THOMAS[III]de Savoie, son of THOMAS[II] Conte [Marchese] del Piemonte & his second wife Beatrice Fieschi ([1252]-San Ginesio 16 May 1282). His parentageis confirmed by his own testament dated 14 May 1282 in which he is named "TommasoPrimogenito del Conte Tomaso di Savoia"[776]. According toEuropäische Stammtafeln[777], Thomaswas born in Aug 1248 but this is clearly incorrect considering the date of hisparents' marriage which, as noted above, was linked to the reconciliation ofthe Savoy family with Pope Innocent IV which followed the death of Emperor Friedrich II in 1250. Given the enmity between the Papal and imperialfactions during the emperor's lifetime, it is unlikely that Thomas's parents indulged in a premarital relationship. He succeededhis father in 1259 as Comte de Maurienne,Conte [Marchese]del Piemonte. A second testament of "Beatrix relicta…Dom. ReymundiBerengarii comitis provinciæ", dated 22 Feb 1264, adds bequests to"Thomam Amedeum et Ludovicum filios quondam Dom. Thome fratrismei…Alienore filie predicti comitis Thome…"[778].

He acquired Pinerolo in 1274, and Turin, Collegno, Grugliasco andPianezza in 1280. The testament of "Thomas de Sabaudiaprimogenitus…domini Thomæ de Sabaudia comitis" dated 14 May 1282chooses his burial "in monasterio de Altacomba", makesbequests to "dominæ Guiæ de Burgundia consorti meæ…matri meæ dominæ B.comitissæ", confirms a donation made to "domino Guillermo deRupecula militi familiari meo", and appoints "Philippum deSabaudia filium meum primogenitum" as his heir provided he providessufficient appanages "aliis filiis meis Petro, Thomæ, Amedeo etGuillermo fratribus suis", appointing their mother as tutor for hissons with the assistance of "consanguineum meum R. patrem dominumAymarum archiepiscopum Lugdunensem et…dominum Othonem comitem Burgundiæ dictædominæ Guyæ germanum…"[781].

m (May 1274)GUYE de Bourgogne,daughter of HUGUES de Chalon Comte Palatin de Bourgogne, Seigneur de Salins& his wife Alix Ctss Palatine de Bourgogne [Andechs-Merano] (-24 Jun1316). "Ottone di Borgonia Signore di Salins" reachedagreement with "Tomaso di Savoia" concerning the dowrypayment of "Guidetta sua Sorella Moglie del sudetto Tommaso"by contract dated "15 di Pentecoste 1274"[782]. Her origin is also confirmed by the testament of "Thomasde Sabaudia primogenitus…domini Thomæ de Sabaudia comitis" dated 14May 1282 which makes bequests to "dominæ Guiæ de Burgundia consortimeæ…", and appoints as tutor for his sons with the assistance of"…dominum Othonem comitem Burgundiæ dictæ dominæ Guyæ germanum…"[783]. A charter dated 24 May 1286 records the results of a commissionrelating to Piemonte and declarations by "Ludovicus de Sabaudia"and by "Guia de Burgundia relicata…domini Thome de Sabaudia…filiorumnostrorum…Philippi Petri Thome Amedei et Guillelmi"[784].

PHILIPPE de Savoie,son of THOMAS [III] de Savoie Conte [Marchese] del Piemonte & his wife Guye de Chalon [Bourgogne-Comté] (Susa 1278-23 Sep 1334). The testament of "Thomas de Sabaudia primogenitus…domini Thomæ deSabaudia comitis" dated 14 May 1282 appoints "Philippum deSabaudia filium meum primogenitum" as his heir provided he providessufficient appanages "aliis filiis meis Petro, Thomæ, Amedeo etGuillermo fratribus suis"[804]. A charter dated 24 May 1286 records theresults of a commission relating to Piemonte and declarations by"Ludovicus de Sabaudia"and by "Guia de Burgundia relicata…domini Thome de Sabaudia…filiorumnostrorum…Philippi Petri Thome Amedei et Guillelmi"[805]. He succeeded in 1294 asSignore [Sovereign Lord]del Piemonte. As an infant, he was passed over by the States General as Comte de Savoie in 1285 on the death of his great uncle, in favour of his uncle Amedée V, despite being the senior male representative of the family. ComteAmedée V accorded him Turin and Pinerolo in 1286 as compensation[806]. A charter dated 24 Feb 1295 records"Philippus de Sabaudia"taking possession of the lordship ofPiemonte[807].

His rule in Achaia was marked bydespotism and self-interest. Having refused to help Charles II King of Sicily [Anjou-Capet] in his 1305 attempt to capture Epirus,the king finally deposed him 5 Jun 1306[809]. He left Greece and received in exchange the county of Albaon the Adriatic coast of Italy by agreement 11 May 1307. A charter dated 11 May 1307 records the agreement between"domini Karoli secundi…Jerusalem et Sicilie regis"and "dominus Philippus de Sabaudia" settling their differences[810]. Despite this agreement, Philippe continued using the title Princeof Achaia after his return to Italy. "SerPhylippus de Sabaudia Princeps Achaye et Isabella Principissa" areincluded in the list of Barons "de Romania" with whom Venice maintained relations in 1313[811],demonstrating that the republic of Venice continued to recognise the titles andpositions of Philippe and his wife even after they left Greece.

m firstly (Rome 12 Feb 1301, separated 1307) as her third husband,ISABELLEde Villehardouin Pss of Achaia, widow firstlyofPHILIPPE of Sicily titular King of Thessaloniki and secondly ofFLORENT de Hainaut Stadhouder of Zeeland Seigneur de Braine-le-Comte, daughter andheiress of GUILLAUME II de Villehardouin “le Grand Dent” Prince of Achaia &his third wife Anna Komnenodukaina of Epirus ([1260/63]-23 Jan 1312). TheLivre de la Conqueste de la Morée records the marriage of “monseignorPhilippe de Savoye, fils jadis dou conte Thomas de Savoye qui fu occis partraïson d´un carel d´arbalastre…sires de Pinerol et de Thurin et de cellecontrée de Piémont” and “la princesse Ysabeau”[814]. Pss of Achaia 1289-1307. Acharterdated 23 Feb 1301 records the marriage between"dominumPhilippum de Sabaudia" and "dominam Isabellam principissamAchayæ", and the investiture of the former as prince of Achaia by"regis domini Caroli secundi…Jerusalem et Siciliæ regis…vice filiiipsius…domini Philippi principis Tarentini"[815]. She and Comte Philippe were forced to renounce the Principalityof Achaia 11 May 1307 in favour of her first husband’s nephew Philippe ofSicily Principe di Tarento. Isabelle separated from her husband, but continuedto protest the loss of Achaia from Hainaut where she was living in spring1307. She was created Lady of Kalamata in 1308 by Charles II King of Sicily [Anjou-Capet]. She affirmed her rights, and those of herdaughter Mathilde de Hainaut, over Achaia 29 Apr 1311 at Valenciennes.

Betrothed ([23 Jan/7 May] 1312) toKATHARINA von Habsburg,daughter of ALBRECHT I King of Germany, Duke of Austria & his wife Elisabeth von Görz-Tirol (Oct 1295-Naples 18 Jan 1323, bur Naples San LorenzoMaggiore). Her first betrothal is referred to in the State Archives "Matrimoniotra Filippo di Savoia Principe d'Acaia e Catterina d'Hasbourg (non ebbeeffetto)"[816]. It must be dated to early 1312 between the death of Philippe de Savoie's firstwife and the date of his second marriage.

m secondly (7 May 1312)CATHERINE de Viennois,daughter of HUMBERT [I] Dauphin de Viennois [de la Tour du Pin et de Coligny] & his wife Anne Dauphine de Viennois [Bourgogne-Capet] (-9 Dec 1337). TheAymari Rivalli De Allobrogibus records the marriage of"Catharina Delphini filia" and "Philippo…SabaudoAchaiæ principi"[817]. "Gio. Delfino di Vienna" made two declarations relating to payment of the agreed dowry to "Filippodi Savoia Principe di Acaja" relating to his marriage to (in onedeclaration) "Cattarina sua Sorella future Sposa di detto Filippo diSavoia" and (in the other) "Cattarina di Lui Sorella Mogliedel detto Principe Filippo", both dated 7 May 1312[818], the difference in the description of the bride in the twodocuments suggesting that one was written before the marriage took place onthat date and the other after. The testament of "DominusPhilippus de Sabaudia primogenitus…Domini Thomæ de Sabaudia Dominus in partibusPedemontii" dated 9 Jun 1330 appoints "Dominam Catharinameorum matrem" as guardian of his children[819]. "Conte Aymone di Savoia"confirmed the appointment by "Filippo di Savoia Principe d'Accaja" of "Cattarina di Vienna sua Moglie" astutor of "Giacomo, Amedeo, Tomaso ed Edoardo Loro figliuoli"by agreement dated 20 Oct 1334[820].

Comte Philippe III & his first wife had [three] children (Europäische Stammtafeln shows another unnamed daughter by Philippe's first marriage married to Charlesof Sicily [Anjou-Capet] Prince of Achaia[821]. This presumably results from confusion with Mathilde de Hainaut,daughter of Isabelle de Villehardouin by her second husband Florent de Hainaut Seigneurde Braine, who was heiress of Morea and betrothed to Charles):

1. [MARIE de Savoie(1301-after 1308). Europäische Stammtafeln shows this eldest daughter[822]. However, the primary source whichconfirms her parentage has not yet been identified.

She was required to cede them back toAchaia after her father was deposed as prince in return for land near Alba, which yielded 200 gold ounces a year for her future dowry, granted by Charles II King of Sicily[824]. She ceded her rights in the principality of Achaia to her half-brother Jacques de Savoie[825]. Her first betrothal is suggested by the proxy dated 4 Mar 1306 issued by "Filippodi Savoia Principe d'Acaja e Isabella di Lui Consorte" appointing "Guglielmo Provana e Chialaberto di Lusema" tonegotiate the marriage between "Carlo figlio Primo Genito di Filippo Redi Sicilia" and "Margarita di Savoia Loro figlia"[826], although it is not known whether the negotiations were finalisedinto a marriage contract.

His half-sister Marguerite de Savoie ceded her rightsin the principality of Achaia to him[862], although he had no hereditary right to the territory asMarguerite's title devolved from her mother. Hesucceeded his father in 1334 as titular Prince of Achaia,Signore [Sovereign Lord]del Piemonte. He challenged the authority of Robert ofSicily, Principe di Tarento, as Prince of Achaia during the early 1340s[863]. He challenged the authority of Amedée VI "le ComteVert" Comte de Savoie, who captured Jacques at Pinerolo and confiscatedall his territories in Piemonte.

Although the wording of these documents do not confirm that thismarriage ever took place (and the evident problems relating to the dowrysuggest that negotiations were difficult), the 16 May 1366testament of Prince Jacques names "…Principessa Sibilla di Beaux sua Seconda Consorte…" and therefore indicates that he wasmarried before, presumably to Beatrice[869].

Chapter 4. NOBILITY in SAVOY

A. SEIGNEURS de CHÂTILLON-en-MICHAILLE

Châtillon-en-Michaille is located in thepresent-day French département of Ain, close to the border with Haute-Savoie,about 10 kilometres due west of the south-western corner of Switzerland.

The family was studied by Guichenon[1188] and Foras, the latter saying that he based his own reconstructionmainly on Guichenon although he does highlight some inconsistencies[1189]. However, the primary source material which is shown below hashighlighted numerous discrepancies compared with their two reconstructions. Thefollowing represents a first attempt at a new reconstruction based on theprimary sources, selectively including only compatible material from Guichenonand Foras. A more complete reconstruction must await the emergence of moreprimary sources.

1. PIERRE de Châtillon . He is named as father of Humbert in the 2 Nov 1296 testamentcited below. It is not known whether his mention in the document means that hewas alive at the time, or just to distinguish Humbert from another Humbert deChâtillon who was living at the time. m---. The primary source which records the name of Pierre’s wife has not been found. Pierre & his wife had one child:

a) HUMBERT de Châtillon (-after 2 Nov 1296). Hisparentage and marriage are confirmed by his father-in-law’s 2 Nov 1296testament cited under his wife. On the other hand, Guichenon names “PierreSeigneur de Chastillon Chevalier, de la maison de Chastillon de Michaille”as Agnes’s husband (no source cited)[1190]. In this case, Foras’s reconstructionfollows Guichenon [1191]. Humbert’s connection with Châtillon-en-Michaille isconfirmed by the 13 Oct 1334 document cited below. mAGNES de Luyrieu,daughter of PIERRE Seigneur de Luyrieu & his [first wife Sancie ---/secondwife Alaisie ---] (-after 2 Nov 1296). The 2 Nov 1296 testament of PierreSeigneur de Luyrieu, cited in full above, bequeathed property to “…Agnete,sa fille, femme d’Humbert de Chastillon, fils de Pierre, chevalier…”[1192].

The primary source which records the name of Pierre’s wife has not beenfound. Pierre & his wife had two children:

(1) GUILLAUME de Châtillon (-after 13 Oct 1334). His parentage is confirmed by a charterdated 13 Oct 1334 which records Louis de Savoie Seigneur de Vaud arbitrating adispute between "Pierre, seigneur de Luyrieu,tant à son nom que de Guy, son frère" and"Guillaume, seigneur de Chastellion enMichaille, chevalier, et Lancelot de Chastillion, fils de Peronet deChastillion, de Saissel", concerning "les partages des biens de l’hoirie de Pierre de Luyrieu, chevalier", and deciding that "Laplupart des terres mentionnées appartiendront à Guillaume et Lancelot exceptéle château de Culoz et son revenu qui reviendront au seigneur de Luyrieu"[1193].

(2) LANCELOT de Châtillon (-after 13 Oct 1334). His parentage is confirmed by the 13 Oct1334 in which he is named with his brother Guillaume, cited above.

1. BARTHELEMY de Châtillon . He is named as father of Pierre in the 2 Nov 1296 testamentcited below. It is not known whether his mention in the document means that hewas alive at the time, or just to distinguish Pierre from another Pierre deChâtillon who was living at the time. m---.

Pierre & his wife had children (both Guichenon and Foras nameseveral other children):

a) MARIE de Châtillon ([1346/50?]-after 3 Apr 1369). Guichenon records her parentage and marriage (no sourcecited)[1198]. The primary source which confirms her parentage has not been identified, butthe suggested date of her indicates that Guichenon could be correct. The 3 Apr 1369 testament of her husband bequeathed property to"Marie, sa femme...". m([1360/65?])LOUIS deLuyrieu Seigneur de Culo, son of PIERRE Seigneur de Luyrieu & hissecond wife Guigonne de Seyssel ([1335/40?]-[3 Apr 1369/18 Mar 1371?]).

1. AME[AYMON]de Châtillon ([1325/30?]-[27 Sep 1376/17 Apr 1378]). His birth date is estimated from thelikely date of his first marriage shown below. Forasrecords his parents as Pierre de Châtillon [dit Bochard] and his wife, who arenamed above[1199]. He cites no source but the suggestion is incompatible with Amé/Aymon’ssuggested date of birth, unless he was born from an otherwise unrecordedearlier marriage of his father. Seigneur de Sonnaz. Foras records thatAmé/Aymon was “Châtelain de Ballon en 1375 pour le Cte de Savoie”, andthat “[il] testa le 29 avril 1375” (no sources cited)[1200]. Guigues [II] de Seyssel, under his testament dated 27 Sep 1376,named “héritiers universels …et Aymon de Châtillon, seigneur de Sonnaz[…Choiselet les terres d’Yenne”, substituting successively “Amédée de Châtillon,prieur d’Aix[Aymon’s son? see below], et…le susdit Aymar de Seyssel”]”(citing “Arch. Costa”)[1201]. The latest date of his death is indicated bySeyssel-Crussieuciting a donation made by Amblarde [mother of Amé/Aimon’s second wife] 17 Apr1378 to the monks of Arvières of money “donné par le testament dudit Amé,cens à prendre sur Humbert Fauconnier”[1202]. m firstly ([1350/54?])GUILLERMINE [Humilie]de Grolée, daughter of ---. Foras recordsAmé/Aymon’s daughter Aleysie as “fille de…Aymon de Châtillon dit Bochard,seigr de Sonnaz, Mussel et Vens, et de Guillermine alias Humilie de Grolée”[1203]. The date of Aleysie’s marriage contract indicates that she wasseveral years older than her three half-brothers shown below, and was thereforeborn from a different marriage of her father. In another passage, Forasrecords that “Amé de Châtillon" married secondly “Humilie deGrolée”[1204],which seems unlikely to be correct given Aleysie’s 15 May 1368 marriagecontract (see below). It seems more likely thatGuillermine/Humilie was Amé/Aymon’s first wife. The parentage ofGuillermine/Humilie in the Grolée family has not been ascertained (see thedocument BURGUNDY KINGDOM-BRESSE & BUGEY). msecondly ([1365/70?]) ---de---, daughter of --- & his wife Amblarde de Seyssel([1350/55?]-before 20 Nov 1377). No source has been found which confirms this person’s name. Follow her hyperlink for the explanation about her parentage whichis discussed under her mother. Her marriage date isestimated from her having three children under age in 1377, but also assumingthat Guichenon’s report of her third son François in 1390 is correct (seebelow). If these datea are correctly estimated, she was born [1350/55?]. Shedied before 20 Nov 1377 when her mother was granted guardianship of her threesons. Amé/Aymon & his first wife had [two] children:

a) [AMEDEE de Châtillon(-after 27 Sep 1376). Prior of Aix: under his testament, dated 27 Sep 1376,Guigues [II] de Seyssel (see above) named “héritiers universels …et Aymon deChâtillon, seigneur de Sonnaz[…Choisel et les terres d’Yenne”,substituting successively “Amédée de Châtillon, prieur d’Aix, et…le susditAymar de Seyssel”]” (citing “Arch. Costa”)[1205]. “Amédée de Châtillon, prieur d’Aix…” has not otherwisebeen identified. One possibility is that he was the son of Amé/Aymon by hisfirst marriage. If that is correct, his father presumably had no othersurviving male children by his first wife.]

b) ALEYSIE de Châtillon ([before 1355?]-after 19 Jun 1419). Foras recordsAleysie as “fille de…Aymon de Châtillon dit Bochard, seigr de Sonnaz, Musselet Vens, et de Guillermine alias Humilie de Grolée” and her contract (“contratdotal”) dated 15 May 1368 (citing “Arch. Saumont”) to marry “AmblardGerbais de Belley”[1206]. If the date of this marriage is correct, Aleysie was probably born before1355. Foras notes that “Les généalogistes ne sont pas d’accord sur [sa]filiation…Guichenon…ne la mentionne pas parmi les enfants d¡Amé…Besson (Généal.Arch, Costa) donne à cet Amé…une seule fille, Alix, qui épousa Amblard deGerbais. Je n’ai pas eu le bonheir de rencontrer des titres pour trancher ledifférend, mais je crois la version de Besson plus exacte [et qui] est conformeaux conclusions que l’on peut tirer des inféodations de Sonnaz…”[1207], but notes on the following page that “Suivant D. Luc deLucinge, fille d’Aymon ci-dessus et d’Humilie de Grolée” (no sourcecitation). Dame de Sonnaz et de Mussel: Foras records that Aleysie was “investieavec son mari Amblard de Gerbais du fief de Sonnaz le 18 mai 1391 et le 7 mai1400 (Somm. des fiefs)”), his father’s marriage contract dated 13/28 Jul1345 [hence his suggested birth date [1346/47?] shown above], that Amé/Aymonwas “Châtelain de Ballon en 1375 pour le Cte de Savoie”, and that “[il]testa le 29 avril 1375” (no source cited)[1208]. Foras records that Aleysie and her husband “teste ensemble le15 mars 1412” (citing “Arch.

Guichenon records that this François deChâtillon “fut Seigneur de Mussel, et vivoit en l’an 1390 avec Humilie deGrolée sa femme fille de Jean de Grolé Chevalier Seigneur de Neyrieu” (nosource cited)[1213]. The suggested year is consistent with his supposed sister Aleysie beinginvested 18 May 1391 with Sonnaz (see below), in which case François would havedied without direct heirs in late 1390/early 1391. mHUMILIEde Grolée, daughter of JEAN de Grolée Seigneur de Neyrieux &his wife --- (-after 1390). Guichenon records herparentage and marriage (no source cited)[1214].

2. PIERRE d'Aigueblanche (-26 Nov 1268). It is not known how Pierre d'Aigueblanche wasrelated to the family of the counts of Savoy. However, the testament of "BeatriceVedova del Re Berengario Conte di Provenza" dated 14 Jan 1264 includesa bequest to "…Vescovo d'Hereford Pietro"[1383]. All the other beneficiaries under her testament appear to havebeen her relatives. The relationship is confirmed bythe Annals of Burton which record that “Petrus de Egeblanche, avunculusreginæ, episcopus Herefordensis” returned to England in 1255 afterundertaking negotiations in Rome[1384]. The Annals of Osney record that “Petrus de Egeblanche” wasconsecrated as Bishop of Hereford “apud Londoniam X Kal Jan” in 1240[1385]. Matthew of Paris records that "Petrus de Egeblaneko"Bishop of Hereford proposed to Henry III King of England the sale of bishops'seals as a means of raising money and, in a later passage, that he hoped tosucceed as archbishop of Bordeaux in 1256[1386]. The testament of "Petrus…Herefordensis episcopus"is dated 1 Jul 1266, appoints "magistrum Eimericum fratrem nostrum etJoannem decanum Herefordensem et Eimericum cancellarium Herefordensem etmagistrum Jacobum archidiaconum Salopsyrensem et Emonem canonicum Herefordensemnepotes nostros" to decide the number of additional prebends whichwill be paid for by a donation to the church of Sainte-Catherine d’Aiguebelle,and appoints "dominum Petrum de Aquablanca dominum Brianson nepotemnostrum" as his heir, substituting "dominis Joanne etEymerico, Aymone nepotionis nostræ" should Pierre died without maleheirs[1387]. TheAnnales Londonienses record the death in 1268 of "Petrus deEgebele Herefordensis episcopus"[1388]. The Annals of Osney record the death “circa festum SanctiEadmundi regis” in 1268 of “Petrus de Egeblanche episcopus Heredordensis”[1389]. A second necrology ofSaint-Jean-de-Maurienne records the death "VI Kal Dec" of"dnus Petrus de Aquablanca Erfordensis episcopus"[1390].

3. AIMERY d’Aigueblanche (-after 1 Jul 1266). The testament of "Petrus…Herefordensisepiscopus" is dated 1 Jul 1266 and requests "magistrumEimericum fratrem nostrum et Joannem decanum Herefordensem et Eimericumcancellarium Herefordensem et magistrum Jacobum archidiaconum Salopsyrensem etEmonem canonicum Herefordensem nepotes nostros" to decide the numberof additional prebends which will be paid for by a donation to the church ofSainte-Catherine d’Aiguebelle[1391].

1. AYMON de Briançon . Seigneur de Varces. m ---. Aymon & his wife had one child:

a) GAUTHIER de Briançon (-before 31 Jan 1350). Seigneur de Varces et d’Eybens. He presumably died before 31 Jan 1350 when hispresumed son is named as seigneur de Varces, see below. m (before 15 Mar 1335)ANNETTE deSassenage,daughter of FRANÇOIS Seigneurde Sassenage & his wife Agnes de Joinville-Gex(-after15 Mar 1335). The testament of “Agnesde Jacz”, dated 24 Sep 1312, bequeathed property to “...Annette andLéonnette nun at Laval Bressieux, Marguerite nun at Salette, Philippine nun atMeylan, her daughters”[1393]. The testament of François de Sassenage, dated 15 Apr 1328, bequeathed propertyto “...Annette his daughter not married yet...” and named “...hisdaughter Annette’s male heirs if she has any...” as successive substituteheirs[1394]. A charter dated 15 Mar 1335 records receipt given by “Noble Aymon deBriancon Seigneur de Varces” to “Noble J[ean] Bouvier du Villard”for payment on behalf of “Albert Seigneur de Sassenage pour le dot d’Annettef[emm]e de Gauthier fils du Seigneur Aymon et sœur du Seigneur Albert”[1395]. Gauthier & his wife had one child:

i) ALBERT de Briançon . Seigneur de Varces. The testament of “Henry...Seigneur deSassenage”, dated 31 Jan 1350, named [presumably Annette’s son] “...Albertde Briançon seigneur de Varces...” as successive substitutes[1396].

E. SEIGNEURS de SEYSSEL etd’AIX

The town of Seyssel is located in thepresent-day Frenchdépartement of Haute-Savoie,arrondissementSaint-Julien-en-Genevois,canton Seyssel, on the left bank of the Rhône,about 15 kilometres west of Annecy and 20 kilometres south-west of Geneva. Aix-les-Bains,département Savoie,arrondissement Chambéry,cantonAix-les-Bains, lies on the eastern shore of the Lac du Bourget, 10 kilometresnorth of Chambéry and 30 kilometres south of Seyssel, and was the principalfief of the Seyssel family.

The Seyssel family was studied in detail byComte Marc de Seyssel-Crussieu in 1900[1397]. He refers to primary source material throughout but unfortunatelysummarises the content in French without quoting the original Latin (andprovides only general source citations). Judging the accuracy of hisinformation is therefore difficult. As some inconsistencies were noted whilestudying his work, it is recommended that his summaries should be treated withsome caution.

1. PIERRE de Seyssel (-after1 Jun 1218). "...Petrus de Saisel...Boso vicecomesAugustensis..." witnessed the undated charter (dated to 1191?) underwhch Thomas Comte de Savoie granted freedoms to Aosta[1398]. "...Petrus de Seissel..." witnessed the 1 Jun1218 charter under which Thomas Comte de Savoie agreed the marriage of “filiamsuam Margaritam”[1399].

2. HUMBERT [I]de Seyssel (-[27 Mar/19Sep] 1252). "...Umbertus de Saxel..." witnessed the 18 Jan1228 charter under which Thomas Comte de Maurienne agreed the dowry of “Margaritæfiliæ Amedei filii sui”[1400]. "Petrus de Camera...Humbertus de Saysello, Aymerius deBriancione..." were present in the 26 Dec 1233 charter Amédée Comte deSavoie confirmed donations to Maurienne Saint-Jean[1401]. Seigneur d’Aix: the contract of marriagebetween "Amedeum comitem Sabaudiæ" and"Cæciliam Barralis domini Baucii filiam" is dated 18 Dec 1243,witnessed by "Humbertum de Seyssel dominum Aquarum…"[1402]. "Humbertus de Seysello..."witnessed the 12 Dec 1249 charter of Amédée IV Comte de Savoie[1403]. "Humbertus de Saissello..." witnessed the 27 Mar1252 which records a donation to Comte Amédée IV[1404].

Two brothers:

1. HUMBERT [II]de Seyssel (-after 6Jun 1274). "...Humbertus de Seysello, dominus G. frater eius..."witnessed the 19 Sep 1252 testament of Amédée IV Comte de Savoie[1405]. "...Humbertus et Gauterinus de Seysello fratres,Rodulphus de Geneva comes..." witnessed the 29 May 1253 charter ofAmédée IV Comte de Savoie[1406]. Humbert [II] de Seyssel emancipated his son Humbert by charter dated 6 Jun 1274[1407]. m ---. The name ofHumbert’s wife is not known. Humbert [II] & his wife had children:

a) HUMBERT [III]de Seyssel (-after 8Oct 1299, bur Aix Notre-Dame). Humbert[II] de Seyssel emancipated his son Humbert by charter dated 6 Jun 1274[1408]. Seigneur d’Aix.

- see below.

b) GUY de Seyssel (-after 26 Jan 1316). “...Guido de Seysello dominus deBordellis” witnessed the contract of marriage between "Amedeumcomitem Sabaudie…Mariæ de Brabantia…unam de filiabus…Maria vel Catherina"and "Hugonem Dalphini dominum Fucigniaci" is dated 9 Sep 1309[1409]. The testament of Guillaume de Seyssel,dated 1 May 1311, appointed “Aymar de Seyssel prieur de Thoyre son frèreet...Guidon de Seyssel seigneur de Bordeau et de La Serraz son oncle” asexecutors[1410]. The testament of Guy de Seyssel, dated 4 Sep 1315, bequeathedproperty to “Humbert [IV] de Seyssel seigneur d’Aix, fils de Guillaume,Hugues de Seyssel seigneur de La Bâtie, Antoine de Seyssel seigneurd’Aiguebelette, ses neveux et petits-neveux, et Béatrix de Greysier safemme...Gilles de Bocsozel son neveu ex sorore, sous réserve d’usufruit enfaveur d’Aude de Bocsozel sa sœur mère de Gilles”[1411]. The codicil of Guy de Seyssel, dated 26 Jan 1316, bequeathedproperty to “Gilles de Bocsozel...la terre de La Serraz...Humbert d’Aix lechâteau de Bordeau...”[1412]. mBEATRIX de Greysier, daughter of --- (-after 4Sep 1315). The testament of Guy de Seyssel, dated 4 Sep 1315, bequeathedproperty to “...Béatrix de Greysier sa femme...”[1413].

c) AUDE de Seyssel (-after 4 Sep 1315). The testament of Guy de Seyssel, dated 4 Sep1315, bequeathed property to “...Gilles de Bocsozel son neveu ex sorore,sous réserve d’usufruit en faveur d’Aude de Bocsozel sa sœur mère de Gilles”[1414]. mHUMBERT de Bocsozel, son of --- (-after 26 Aug1287). The testament of “Humbert de Bocsozel seigneur de La Bâtie,époux d’Audisie de Seyssel” is dated 26 Aug 1287[1415].

2. GAUTHIER de Seyssel (-after 20 Jan 1270). "...Humbertus de Seysello, dominusG. frater eius..." witnessed the 19 Sep 1252 testament of Amédée IVComte de Savoie[1416]. "...Humbertus et Gauterinus de Seysello fratres, Rodulphus de Genevacomes..." witnessed the 29 May 1253 charter of Amédée IV Comte deSavoie[1417]. The testament of Gauthier de Seyssel, dated 1267, and a codicil dated 20 Jan1270, named his brother Humbert as his heir[1418].

The precise parentage of Humbert de SeysellSeigneur d’Aiguebelette is uncertain. Foras records his testament dated 14 Sep1301 (citing “Arch. Sommariva”) in which he names himself (according to Foras)“petit-fils de Humbert, seigneur d’Aix”[1419]. Foras concludes that the chronology (bearing in mind Humbert’ssupposed marriage “vers 1277” and assuming that he died soon after histestament) favours the person shown above as Humbert [II] as his father (whowould then have had two sons named Humbert, not impossible but still unusual). A copy of the original testament has not been found, but presumably “petit-fils”represents Foras’s translation of the term “nepos”. If that is correct,the term could have been used to specify either grandson or nephew, but also amore remote family relationship especially in the case of a “high status”relative a family connection with whom may have been considered prestigious. It is also presumably not impossible that Humbert was illegitimate. Until moreinformation comes to light, Humbert's ancestry is shown as unknown. Seyssel-Crussieu (published 1900) provides the same information asForas (published 1910), who presumably based his information on the earlierwork[1420].

1. HUMBERT de Seyssel (-after 14 Sep 1301). Seigneur d’Aiguebelette: Foras recordsthat “Aymar de Clermont” granted “la seigneurie d’Aiguebelette”to Humbert, who swore homage 6 Sep 1280 (citing “La Chenaye des Bois”)[1421]. As noted above, Foras records his testament dated 14 Sep 1301(citing “Arch. Sommariva”, no information on the bequests, except thereferences to two of his daughters as shown below)[1422]. m ([1277?])AMBLARDE deGerbais, daughter of PIERRE Seigneur de Gerbais etde Rochefort & his wife --- (-after 13 Apr 1302). Foras records herparentage and marriage “vers 1277 (?)” (based on the likely birth dateof the couple’s son Antoine, see below), noting that Amblarde was named asHumbert’s widow in a charter dated 13 Apr 1302 under which her son Antoineagreed her dower (citing “Mss. Guichenon, Bibloth. Montpellier”)[1423]. Humbert & his wife had five children:

a) ANTOINE de Seyssel ([1280?]-before 1357). His parentageis confirmed by the charter dated 13 Apr 1302 which records “l’assignationdu douaire fait à Amblarde de Gerbais, sa mère”, the same documentsuggesting his approximate birth date as Antoine was named “majeur de 14 ans(donc mineur de 25, soit né vers 1280)” (citing “Mss. Guichenon, Bibloth.Montpellier”)[1424]. Seigneur d’Aiguebelette.

- see below.

b) AYMONET de Seyssel dit d’Aiguebelette (-after 1343). Seigneur de la maison-forte dela Lovatière: Foras records his parentage, noting that he was “encore vivanten 1343 (Mss. Comnène), et en 1372”, the latter date referring to thecharter dated 10 Sep 1372 cited below under his brother Antoine about whichForas expressed his doubts[1425]. m---. No reference has been found to Aymonet’s wife. Aymonet & his wifehad one child:

i) ANTOINEde Seyssel (-before 1376). Seigneur de la Forest: Foras records hisparentage, noting that he died “sans enfants (Mss. Comnène)”, and thathis assets “sont cités comme parvenus à Guigues II qui teste en 1376”[1426].

c) FLORENCEde Seyssel (-after 14 Sep 1301). Foras records her parentage, noting that shewas “vivante lors du testament de son père”[1427].

d) GUIGONNEde Seyssel (-after 14 Sep 1301). Foras records her parentage, noting that she“vivait en 1301, testament de son père”[1428].

e) GUILLERMETTEde Seyssel (-after Sep 1301). Foras records her parentage, noting that she “auraitépousé Saramand, ou Salamand de Cordon avec qui elle vivait en septembre 1301(Mss. Comnène)”[1429]. Seyssel-Crussieu suggests that Saramand was “vraisemblablementle Salamand de Cordon, fils de Pierre, que cite Guichenon”, and who “d’aprèsun titre des archives du château des Marches, aurait été, en 1313, bailli duBugey et du Valromey”[1430]. m (before Sep 1301)SARAMAND de Cordon, son of [PIERRE de Cordon& his wife ---] (-[after 1313]).

ANTOINE de Seyssel,son of HUMBERT de Seyssel Seigneur d’Aiguebelette & his wife Amblarde deGerbais ([1280?]-before 1357). His parentage isconfirmed by the charter dated 13 Apr 1302 which records “l’assignation dudouaire fait à Amblarde de Gerbais, sa mère”, the same document suggestinghis approximate birth date as Antoine was named “majeur de 14 ans (doncmineur de 25, soit né vers 1280)” (citing “Mss. Guichenon, Bibloth.Montpellier”)[1431]. Seigneur d’Aiguebelette. Foras records thatAntoine and his brother Aymonet “se font donation réciproque de tous leursbiens au dernier survivant” by charter dated 10 Sep 1372 (citing “Mss.Comnène”), but comments that “cet acte m’étonne doublement – à cause de ladate : Antoine devait avour plus de 90 ans ! – à cause du motif : Antoine avaitalors quatre petits-enfants de son nom !”[1432]. The date of this document is also inconsistent with the sourcescited below under his son Guigues [I], which suggest that Antoine died before1357.

m ---. No reference has been found to Antoine’s wife. See under her daughter Amblarde for Foras’s suggestion that hermother was also named Amblarde, which from a chronological point of view seemsunlikely to be correct.

Antoine & his wife had two children:

1. GUIGUES [I]de Seyssel (-after 20Aug 1370). Seigneur d’Aiguebelette. Châtelain de Bonne “pour leComte de Savoie en 1357" (citing “Arch. Camérales”)[1433]. Seigneur de Villeneuve, for which Forasrecords that Guigues swore homage 20 Jun 1362 (citing “Rivoire de la Bâtie,Armorialde Dauphiné”)[1434]. A charter dated 14 May 1367 records that “Guigon,Amédée, Jean et Galois de Chevelu" sold a large pond “sis sousGimillieu” and fishing rights to Guigues (citing “Arch. Lucey”)[1435]. Guigues’s testament, dated 20 Aug 1370,named “héritier Guigonet, son fils", with “Béatrix[…Choiselet les biens du mandement d’Yenne], Alix[…pour le château et lachâtellenie d’Aiguebelette]et Françoise[…pour la seigneurie deVilleneuve]” as substitutes (citing “Abbé F. Marchand,Les Chartes della Tour de Douvres[p. 90]”)[1436]. m ---. No reference has been found to Guigues’s wife. Guigues [I]& his wife had four children:

a) GUIGUES [II] (-[27 Sep 1376/1377]). He was named in his father’s 20 Aug1370 testament cited above. Seigneur d’Aiguebelette. Under his own testment, dated 27 Sep 1376, Guigues [II] deSeyssel named “héritiers universels Aymar de Seyssel, seigneur d’Aix[…Aiguebelette”,substituting “Humbert, son fils”], et Aymon de Châtillon, seigneur deSonnaz[…Choisel et les terres d’Yenne”, substituting successively “Amédéede Châtillon, prieur d’Aix, et…le susdit Aymar de Seyssel”]”, andrelinquished in favour of “Amédée de Châtillon les droits qu’il tient de safille à Beaufort, à Chambéry et en Tarentaise” (citing “Arch. Costa”)[1437]. mAMEDEE de Montgelat, daughter of ---. Foras records her family origin and marriage (nosource cited)[1438]. Guigues [II] & his wife had one child

i) daughter (-before 27 Sep 1376). She was cited (butapparently not named? according to Foras’s report) in her father’s 27 Sep 1376testament, presumably deceased without surviving descendants, as (according toForas’s report) the testament records that her rights “à Beaufort, àChambéry et en Tarentaise” had reverted to her father. According to Foras,this daughter was Guigonne wife of “Pierre de Luyrieu, seigneur de Culoz,Montvéran et Prangins” who signed her testament “veuve, le 31 mai 1371”(citing “Guichenon; Guigues,Notice sur la Chartreuse d’Arvières”)[1439]. From a chronological point of view, this suggested co-identity isunlikely to be correct, if the birth of this daughter’s paternal aunt iscorrectly dated to [1355/65] as shown below, and given that Guigonne probablymarried Pierre de Luyrieu some time in the 1330s, and was therefore born[1310/25]. Another possibility is that Guigues [II] was much older than histhree sisters, in which case they could have been born from different marriagesof their father. Nevertheless, such a hypothesis would still not resolve theextreme chronological difficulty associated with Guigonne, wife of Pierre deLuyrieu, being Guigues [II]’s daughter. Guigonne and her husband are thereforeshown below separately, parents unknown.

b) BEATRIX ([1350/60?]-after 26 Jul 1380). She was named in her father’s 20Aug 1370 testament cited above. Foras records her parentage and marriage,noting that she settled a dispute with “Aymar de Seyssel, seigneur des Lanes(?) (ou Eauls?)” by charter dated 11 May 1380 (citing “Biblioth. du châteaude Terrebasse”)[1440]. Foras records that she settled a dispute concerning “l’hoirie de son père”by charter dated 26 Jul 1380 (citing “Abbé F. Marchand,Les Chartes de laTour de Douvres”)[1441]. Foras records that her daughter “Marguerite de Montbréon” married “Aymarde Paladru”, and that their daughter “Jeannette de Paladru, dame deCressieu” married by contract dated 15 May 1405 “Jean, fils natureld’Aymar de Clermont” to whom she brought Cressieu (citing “Biblioth. duchâteau de Terrebasse”)[1442]. Assuming that Jeannette’s mother and grandmother were between 15 and 25 yearsold when each gave birth, and assuming that Beatrix was adult when named in1380, her birth can probably be estimated to [1350/60]. mJEAN de Montbrun[Montbréon] Seigneur de Cressieu [en Bugey], son of ---.

c) ALIX (-after 20 May 1406). She was named in her father’s 20 Aug 1370testament cited above. Foras records her parentage and marriage (before herbrother’s 27 Sep 1376 testament), noting that as a widow she was named in acharter dated 20 May 1406 (citing “Arch. Lucey”)[1443]. mPIERRE Gerbais, trésorier de Savoie, son of --- (-before 20 May 1406).

d) FRANÇOISE (-after 1377). She was named in her father’s 20 Aug 1370 testamentcited above. Foras records her parentage and marriage, and that she sworehomage for part of the seigneurie de Villoeneuve, inherited from her brother,in 1377 (citing “Rivoire de la Bâtie,Armorial de Dauphiné”)[1444]. mANTOINE Prévost [Prost], from Virieu-le-Grand, son of ---.

2. AMBLARDEde Seyssel ([1325/35?]-after17 Apr 1378). Foras records her parentage[1445]. Her birth date is estimated from theestimated birth date of her daughter, although this date seems late in light ofthe estimated birth date of her father shown above. Presumably an explanationfor this discrepancy is that Amblarde was born from a later marriage of herfather. Seyssel-Crussieu cites a judgment dated 20 Nov1377 which granted “La tutelle de ses petits-enfants” to “Ambliardamaviam maternam Johannis, Glaudii et Francisci de Castillione, militis…”,and Amblarde’s 17 Apr 1378 donation to the monks of Arvières of money “donnépar le testament dudit Amé, cens à prendre sur Humbert Fauconnier”[1446]. On the other hand,Foras suggests anotherexplanation for these two documents, that “Ambliardam…” was the wife ofAntoine de Seyssel [this Amblarde’s father, see above][1447], a suggestion which seems unlikely to be correct given the family’schronology. Foras also records that “Guichenon,Comnène et Guigues (Notice sur la Chartreuse d’Arvières)" all recordthat Amblarde married “Amé de Châtillon, seigneur de Sonnaz”, based on “unacte de 1378 de la Chartreuse d’Arvières”[1448]. m ---. The primary source which confirms the name of Amblarde’shusband has not been found. Amblarde & her husband had one child:

a) daughter ([1350/55?]-before 20 Nov 1377). No source has been found which confirms thisperson’s name. Her marriage date is estimated from her having three childrenunder age in 1377, but also assuming that Guichenon’s report of her third sonFrançois in 1390 is correct (see below). If these dates are correctlyestimated, she was born [1350/55?]. She died before 20 Nov 1377 when hermother was granted guardianship of her three sons. m ([1365/70?]) as his secondwife,AME[AYMON]de Châtillon Seigneur de Sonnaz, son of --- ([1325/30?]-[27Sep 1376/17 Apr 1378]).

The primary sourcewhich confirms the precise parentage of Guigonne de Seyssel has not beenidentified. In addition,no primary source has been found which indicates the branch of the Seysselfamily to which Guigonne belonged. Foras recordsGuigonne as the daughter of “Guigues II de Seyssel [Seigneur d’Aiguebelette]”who married “Amédée de Montgelat” (no sources cited)[1449], but this suggested parentage appears impossible from achronological point of view bearing in mind the dates estimated for othermembers of the Seyssel family shown above. If Guigonne was a member of theAiguebelette branch, her estimated birth date suggests that she was thedaughter of Antoine de Seyssel Seigneur d’Aiguebelette. Until more informationcomes to light, Guigonne’s parentage is left unknown in the present document.

1. GUIGONNE de Seyssel, daughter of --- ([1315/25?]-after 18 Mar 1371, bur la Chartreused’Arvières). Her name, family origin,and marriage are confirmed by her 18 Mar 1371 testament cited below. Her birth date is estimated from the estimated birth dateof her son. The testament of [her son] "Louisde Luyrieu, Seigneur de Culo", dated 3 Apr1369,records having received from "sa mèreGuigone de Saissel, 500 florins et une partie de la dot de ladite Guigone, quefeu Pierre, seigneur de Luyrieu, son mari, avait reçue", and reserved"usufruit de son héritage à sa dite mère Guigonne"[1450]. Guichenon says that Guigonne “fit son testament le 18. Mars1371” (no details of bequests, no source citation)[1451]. Foras also records her testament dated 31May 1371 (quoting Guichenon and Guigues,Notices sur la Chartreused’Arvières, see next)[1452]:the testament of “Guigonne de Seyssel, veuve de Pierre, seigneur de Luyrieux, de Culoz,de Montveran et de Prangin”, dated 18 Mar 1371,requested burial “dans l’église d’Arvières”, and bequeathed property “àla chartreuse[d’Arvières]” for her funeral and anniversary[1453]. If this represents a full summary of the document (the originalhas not been found), the absence of bequests to family members suggests thather granddaughter Catherine predeceased her and that Guigonne left no otherliving descendants. m([1330/39?])as his second wife,PIERRESeigneur de Luyrieu, son of JEAN Seigneur de Luyrieu & hiswife --- de Montluel (-[12 Sep 1355/19 Jun 1356]).
