      ; Per Med Lands:
     "THEODERIC [VI] "le Trésorier", son of --- (-882 or 883). A document issued by Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks dated Nov 853 names "Pardulus episcopus, Altmarus, Theodacrus" as missi in "Lauduniso, Portiano, Suessonico, Urciso et Vadiro"[378]. A list of those who swore allegiance to Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks at Reims, dated "V Non Iul 854", names "Teudacrus…" first among those who had previously sworn allegiance[379]. An agreement dated 6 Mar 870 between Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks and his brother Ludwig II "der Deutsche" King of the East Franks names "Ingelramnus comes" as representative of the former and, as present, "Adalelmus comes, Ingelramnus comes, Liutfridus comes, Theodericus comes, item Adalelmus comes"[380]. An agreement dated 14 Jun 877 of Emperor Charles II "le Chauve", presumably written with his own death in mind, names "…ex comitibus aut Tedericus, aut Balduinus, sive Chuonradus, seu Adalelmus" as those willing to support the emperor's son[381]. Settipani cites various other sources which name "Tetrici comitis Augustudensis" (charter of King Louis II "le Bègue" dated 23 Jan 879), "Theodericus comes" (act of King Carloman dated 30 Nov 880), "Theodericus comes" (letter of King Louis III to Hincmar dated 881)[382]. However, it is not clear whether all these documents refer to the same person named Theoderic. The citations are obviously both West Frankish and East Frankish in origin, a geographical distance which suggests that two different people may be involved. He was invested as Comte d'Autun in 878 by King Louis II "le Bègue". The Annales Bertiniani record his resignation of Autun in 879 after Boso disputed his possession of it[383]. He took the villa of Perrecy on the death of his brother. “Carlomannus…Rex” restored property “villam Taniacum” to the church of Autun, at the request of “Richardi Comiti Augustodensis”, by charter dated 1 Dec 880, the text ending with “Theodoricus Comes ambasciavit”[384].
     "m ---. The name and origin of Theoderic’s wife is not known. Settipani indicates that she was possibly ---, daughter of ---. He cites no source on which he bases this speculation, but presumably it is connected with the introduction of the name Richard into the family of Theoderic [VI][385]."

An approximate birth date range of [705/20] is assigned to Nibelung for the purposes only of narrowing the possible birth date ranges of his supposed descendants.

     "[CHILDEBRAND (-after 751, maybe after 762). Childebrand is described as "germanus" of Charles "Martel" by the Continuator of Fredegar, in the part which Childebrand himself sponsored[183]. There are three possibilities for the precise parentage of Childebrand: (1) he was the illegitimate son of Pépin "le Gros" by an unknown mistress; (2) he was Pépin’s second son by his second [wife] Chalpais; or (3) he was the son of Chalpais by an earlier marriage. Settipani discusses in detail the arguments in favour of each of these three cases[184]. Each case has its defender, but there appears no way of deciding which is the most likely, especially given the uncertain interpretation of relationship terms such as "germanus" in contemporary sources.

Brun was named as father of Liudolf in the early 13th century Gandersheimer Reimchronik[126], but no earlier source has so far been found which confirms the relationship. The Chronicon Hildesheimense records that Liudolf founded the abbey of Gandersheim in 852, first at Brunshausen[127]. Widukind records that "Liudulfus" transferred relics of Pope Innocent to Rome[128]. The Annales Alamannicorum record "Ludolfus dux Saxoniæ avus Heinrici" among those who swore allegiance in 864[129].

"Otto…rex" confirmed privileges to Kloster Gandersheim "avo illius Sigihardo comiti in pago Chiemihgovue in comitatu Sigihardi" to "comiti nostro Eberhart" by charter dated 4 May 947 in which he names "proavo nostro Liutulfo…et eius coniuge Oda…et avo nostro Ottone" recalling their involvement in the foundation of the monastery[134]."

     “Oda was born about 805 or 806, the daughter of Count Billung and his wife Aeda. She married Liudolf, a count in Saxony, about the year 836 and they had eleven or twelve children. Oda died on 17 May 913, aged 107, and was buried in the Abbey of Gandersheim, which she had founded in 881. In the tenth century, more than half a century after Oda's death, Oda's descendant Gerberga, who was abbess of Gandersheim, recorded some family details. Hrotsvita, a nun at Gandersheim, wrote a poem _Carmen de primordiis coenobii Gandersheimensis_ which stated that Oda died aged 107 in 913. Hrotsvita also named Oda's parents as the ruler (or prince) Billung and Aeda (_'fila Bilungi cuiusdam principis almi atque bonae famae generosae scilicet Aeda'_).”.5

     "Titles were not strictly regulated at the time of Liudolf - he is called "count" just as were other men who also used the title "duke" on occasions. In his case, for instance, he was named as "Liudolfus comes" in Annales Xantenses relating his death in 866, while he had earlier been described as "dux Saconiae".
     "For his wife Oda we have a source that might be considered less than ideal, a poem ('Carmen de primordiis coenobii Gandersheimensis') by the nun Hrotsvita, stating that she was aged 107 at her death in 913, hence the birthdate calculated as 905/6. Hrotsvita also named her parents as the ruler (or prince) Billung and Aeda ("fila Billungi cuiusdam principis almi atque bonae famae generosae scilicet Aeda').
     "It has been speculated that Oda was related to the Popponids and Robertians (who transmitted the masculine form of her name, Odo or Eudes), and that she brought to the family of Liudolf the lordship of Aschaffenburg, the old political centre of the east Frankish kingdom, but there is no direct evidence for this.

The Royal Frankish Annals record that Widukind rebelled against the authority of Charles I King of the Franks, who had invaded and subdued Saxony, and fled to Denmark ["Nordmannia"] in 777[15]. The Annales Laurissenses state that "Widochindis rebellis" was the only Saxon who did not submit to the Franks in 777[16]. Widukind incited another revolt in 778 while King Charles was campaigning in Spain, but was defeated near Leisa on the river Eder[17]. The Annales Laurissenses record that Charles I King of the Franks sent his missus "Amelwinum" to besiege "Widochindum et Abbionem" in 785, that they surrendered and were baptised at "Attiniacum villa"[18]. Adam of Bremen records that "Widichind" surrendered and accepted baptism in 785[19].

Bilichilde (?)1

     Bilichilde (?) married Hugues I (?) Comte de Maine, son of Rotger/Roger (?) Comte de Maine and Rothilde (?) of Neustria, Princess of France, Countess of Bourges & of Maine.1

      ; Per Med Lands:
     "HUGUES [I] du Maine ([890]-[26 Mar 931/Sep 960]). Charles III "le Simple" King of the West Franks confirmed donations of property "in comitatu quoque Cœnomannico" made by "Hugo comes et mater sua Rothildis", at the request of "genitrix nostra Adeleidis et…comes Hugo consanguineus, necnon et…comes Ecfridus" by charter dated 1 Nov 900[86]. This presumably indicates that Hugues's father was already dead at the time, and that Hugues himself was still a minor under the guardianship of his mother. If his mother's origin is correctly identified as shown above, Hugues could have been no more than ten years old at the time. It is assumed that "comes Hugo consanguineus" and "Hugo comes…" named in this charter were the same person, although this is not beyond all doubt. If it is correct, the consanguinity would have been through Hugues's mother who was King Charles's paternal aunt as shown above. He succeeded his father in [900] as Comte du Maine. His parentage is further confirmed by the charter dated 3 May 929 under which Hugues, future duc des Francs, returned property to Saint-Martin de Tours, subscribed by "Hugonis comitis filii Rotgerii comitis"[87]. Flodoard records that in 924 Raoul King of France granted Maine to "Hugoni filio Rotberti"[88] who, as noted below, was married to the sister of Hugues [I] Comte du Maine. It is not known whether this grant resulted in Comte Hugues [I] being temporarily dispossessed, or whether the appointment amounted to replacing Hugues (future Duc des Francs) as suzerain over Maine instead of the king. The latter is more probable as Comte Hugues [I] subscribed the charter of [Duc] Hugues dated 929, which indicates a continuing relationship between the two. ["Willelmi comitis, Hugoni comitis, item Hugoni, Savarici vicecomitis, Kadeloni vicecomitis, Adraldi vicecomitis, Radulfi vicecomitis…" subscribed the charter dated [936/37] ("anno I Ludovico regnante") under which "Senegundis" donated "alodem suum in pago Alienense, in vicaria Basiacinse in villa…Fornax…" to St Cyprien, Poitiers[89]. Settipani suggests that "Hugonis comitis" can reasonably identified as Hugues [I] Comte du Maine[90].] "Hugonis ducis, filiorum eius Othonis et Hugonis, Odonis comitis, Hugonis comitis Cenomannorum, Hervei comitis Mauritaniæ, Lamberti vicecomitis" subscribed the charter dated 25 Jun 954 under which "Lambertus filius Ansberti cum Girberga sorore mea…" donated property "in territorio Corbonensi" to Chartres Saint-Père[91]. "Teutbaldi comitis, Teutbaldi junioris, Gausfredi comitis, Hugonis comitis Cenomannorum…" subscribed the charter dated Sep 960 under which "Aremburgis" donated property to Saint-Florent de Saumur[92]. "Hugonis comitis Cenomannorum" in these two documents could either refer to Hugues [I] or Hugues [II].

In a post by Todd Farmerie (see below), the mother of Ermengarde d'Auvergne would evidently be Ermengarde de Brioude, daughter of Étienne de Brioude, Count of Gévaudan, and Adele d'Anjou, who married Robert III, Count d'Auvergne, d. 1032. (IIRC, Weis has no, or a different ancestry). Ermengarde/Humberga are simply variants of the same name, I'd guess the former being of french derivation; the latter, german.....

In his recent La Noblesse du Midi Carolingien,Christian Settipani has a slightly different version for the ancestry of Ermengarde d’Auvergne, comtesse of Blois. You will notice that Settipani proposes the existence of another new daughter of Guillaume le Pieux, comte d’Auvergne and duc d’Aquitaine, an Engelberge, married to Dalmatius, vicomte et abbe de Brioude. I am not summarizing his (rather convincing though circumstancial) argument in favor of this hypothesis because of its exceptional density and invite you simply to read it and make yourself an opinion. It is based (as usual) on onomastics and also the transmission of important properties in Auvergne. Jean Bunot.
It goes like this :
1. Ermengarde d’Auvergne (+ 1042), m. 1005, Eudes II, comte de Blois, Chartres, Tours, Troyes, Meaux et Sancerre (+ 1037)

     "GUILLAUME [III] de Provence, son of GUILLAUME [II] Comte de Provence et d'Arles & his second wife Adelais [Blanche] d´Anjou ([986/87]-1018 before 30 May, bur Abbaye de Montmajour). "Willelmus comes" donated property to Cluny by charter dated 28 Aug [990] signed by "Rodbaldus comes, Adalaix comitissa, Wilelmus comes et filius eius Wilelmus"[260]. "Dominus princeps et marchio istius provinciæ…Willelmus cum coniuge sua…Adelaix et filio suo…Willelmo" restored property to the abbey of Saint-Césaire d´Arles by charter dated 992, subscribed by "Domnus Rotbaldus comes…Willelmus comes filius Rotbaldi et uxor sua Lucia, Wilelmus comes Tolosanus et uxor sua Ema…"[261]. According to Europäische Stammtafeln[262], he was the son of Comte Guillaume by his first wife but the primary source on which this is based has not been identified. It is probably speculative, based on his marriage date, which suggests that he was born earlier than the date of his father's second marriage. In any case, Guillaume's parentage appears to be proved by the charter dated 1005 quoted below. He succeeded his father in 992 as Comte de Provence. "Pontius…Massiliensis ecclesie pontifex" issued a charter dated 1005 with the consent of "domni Rodhbaldi comitis et domne Adalaizis comitisse, domnique Guillelmi comitis filii eius"[263]. "Wilelmus comes Provincie conjuxque mea Girberga cum filio nostro...Wilelmo" donated "in comitatu Sisterico, intra terminos de villa…Manuasca" to Marseille Saint-Victor by charter dated 1013, subscribed by “Wilelmus comes Provincie...domna Guirberga...comitissa, domnus Wilelmus eorum...soboles, Guillelmus vicecomes, Fulco frater eius, Accelena et Odila, Villelmus filius Villemi...”[264].
     "m ([1002]) GERBERGE de Mâcon, daughter of OTHON GUILLAUME Comte de Mâcon [Bourgogne-Comté] & his first wife Ermentrude de Roucy ([985]-[1020/23]). Rodulfus Glaber states that "Willemus…Arelatensis" married one of the daughters of "Willemus, Henrici ducis priuignus, Adalberti Longobardorum ducis filius" and his wife but does not name her[265]. She is named in several charters of Saint-Victor de Marseille. "Wilelmus comes Provincie conjuxque mea Girberga cum filio nostro...Wilelmo" donated "in comitatu Sisterico, intra terminos de villa…Manuasca" to Marseille Saint-Victor by charter dated 1013[266]. "Adalax comitissa mater Villelmi quondam Provintie comitis et Geriberga eque comitissa…eiusdem principis olim uxor" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille for the soul of their late son and husband respectively by charter dated 1018[267]. "Geriberga comitissa" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille for the soul of "senioris mei Guilelmi comitis Provincie" and for "filiorumque nostrorum…Wilelmo, Fulcho, Jozfredus" by charter dated 1019[268]. "Gisberga comitissa…cum filiis meis Willelmo, Fulcone Bertranno, Gaufredo" donated property to Saint-André-lès-Avignon by charter dated 1019[269]. "

     “Gilbert was born about 1055, the son of Berenguer II, vicomte de Millau-Gévaudan, and Adila, vicomtesse de Carlat. About 1073 he married Gerberga, comtesse d'Arles, daughter of Geoffroy, comte de Provence, comte d'Arles, and Stephanie 'Dulcia' de Marseille. He was viscount of Millau and Lodève, then count of Gévaudan, and after 1093, when Gerberga became countess of Provence, he was count of Provence in her name. Their daughters Douce and Stéphanette would have progeny.
     “Gilbert divided the titles of his parents with his brother Richard. He received Millau and Lodève while his brother received Rodez and Carlat. He took advantage of holding lands in the Gévaudan to revive the title of Comte de Gévaudan, which had fallen into disuse for more than a century.
     “In 1096, on the occasion of the refoundation of the church of Toulon, Gilbert provided for the foundation of an abbey on the Stoechades Islands, in the Mediterranean south of Hyères.
     “Gilbert was assassinated in 1111, and the following year Gerberga married her eldest daughter Douce to Ramon Berenguer III el Grande, conde de Barcelona, Provence e Carcassonne, and ceded Provence to them. Their second daughter Stéphanette would lay claim to the county and thus precipitate the Baussenque Wars.”.2

     “Gerberga was born in the second half of the 11th century, the daughter of Geoffroy, comte de Provence, comte d'Arles, and Stephanie 'Dulcia' de Marseille. She was the countess of Arles and Provence from 1093 to 1112.
     “About 1092 she married Gilbert, comte de Gevaudan, vicomte de Carlot, son of Berenguer II, vicomte de Millau-Gévaudan, and Adila, vicomtesse de Carlat. Both their daughters would have progeny. Gilbert was assassinated in 1111, and the following year Gerberga married her eldest daughter Douce to Ramon Berenguer III el Grande, conde de Barcelona, Provence e Carcassonne, and ceded Provence to them. Her second daughter Stéphanette would lay claim to the county and thus precipitate the Baussenque Wars.
     “Gerberga died before January 1118, possibly in 1115.”.5

; NB: There is debate on the parentage of Geberga, cts de Provence.
Per Med Lands:
     "The parentage of Gerberge Ctss de Provence has not been ascertained beyond doubt. According to the Histoire Générale de Languedoc, she was the daughter of Geoffroy [I] Comte de Provence[344]. This connection appears to be speculative, based on an idea first raised in 1664 by Honoré Bouche who, in his Histoire Chronologique de Provence a work which contains inaccuracies but does have the merit of quoting some primary sources, says over-optimistically “[je l]’estime fort vray-semblablement, par presomption et conjecture”[345]. The 28 Jul 1094 charter quoted above indicates that the widow of Comte Geoffroy [I] was representing this branch of the Provence comital family, acting presumably on behalf of her descendant Gerberge who must then have still been under age. Although Gerberge was therefore most likely descended from Geoffroy [I], the chronology of her life suggests the improbability that she was his daughter. The birth of Gerberge´s two daughters, probably dated to the late 1090s (her younger daughter Douce is called “puella” in the 3 Feb 1112 charter quoted below), suggests that Gerberge herself would have been born in [1070/84]. This date range can be narrowed further to [1078/84] if it is correct to deduce from the 28 Jul 1094 charter that Gerberge was then still under age. On the other hand, the marriage of Geoffroy [I] is dated to before 1040, Comte Geoffroy died in [1061/62], and the marriages of his other supposed children are dated to the early 1060s (see above). Szabolcs de Vajay, who assumed that Gerberge was the daughter of Geoffroy [I], suggests that she was at least 30 or 32 years old when she married (he dates the marriage to [1090]) and adds that “on peut se demander si c’était sa première alliance”[346]. However, this does not explain why Etiennette [Douce] made the donation under the charter dated 28 Jul 1094, as Gerberge (or her husband if she was already married) could have made the donation in her own name if she had been of age. Another difficulty is that, if Gerberge was the daughter of Geoffroy, the descendants of Cécile, daughter of Comte Bertrand [II] would have had a superior claim to Provence, although no evidence has been found that any such claim to the county was raised. One possibility that would solve that problem is that Gerberge was born to an otherwise unrecorded older sibling of Cécile (brother or sister) who predeceased his/her father. From a chronological point of view, the result is tight, but does not appear impossible. A further factor is introduced by Manteyer who explains the exclusion of Cécile and her descendants by stating that “la coutume de Provence oubliait, au moment de la mort de leurs parents, les filles précédemment dotées par eux”[347]. Unfortunately he cites no source on which he bases this statement. However, the examples of Gerberge’s two daughters (discussed below) and of Beatrix, daughter of Comte Raymond Berenger IV, both provide other cases which fit the pattern. If Manteyer is right, the best solution to the problem could be that Gerberge was the younger sister of Cécile. From a chronological point of view, that would also appear to be the most likely possibility for Gerberge’s parentage. If Gerberge was the granddaughter of Comte Geoffroy [I], the charter dated 28 Jul 1094 in which her grandmother acted on her behalf suggests that both of Gerberge’s parents must have been deceased at the time."

Per the Bunot email of 22 Feb 2005:
     "Gerberge, comtesse de Provence (1107/12) is traditionally considered a d/o Geoffroy, comte de Provence and Etiennette/Stephanie dite Douce de Marseille. Being heiress of Lower-Provence or Arles, she married in 1083, Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan and de Carlat. They had 2 daughters, Douce, comtesse de Barcelone in 1112 and Etiennette/Stephanie, dame de Baux in 1116.
     "Recently, in his acclaimed “La Provence et la societe feodale 879-1166” (1976) in a family chart of the comtes de Provence (fig. 2, p. 34), Jean-Pierre Poly has reassigned Gerberge as a d/o Bertrand, comte de Provence (1055/90) and his wife Mathilde, therefore making her a grand-daughter of comte Geoffroy and a sister of Cecile, vicomtesse d’Albi, Beziers and Carcassonnes (Trencavel). I believe that the reasons
for the revised ancestry are mainly chronological (see below) but also onomastic since the son of Etiennette/Stephanie de Baux is precisely named Bertrand most probably after his most important ancestor, comte Bertrand, and her daughter Matelle/Mathilde de Bigorre would be named after his wife comtesse Mathilde. Lets look more closely at the chronology :
"1) Traditional ancestry of Douce, comtesse de Barcelone
     "Guillaume III, comte de Provence (992/1018) (+ 1018)
     "m. 1002, Gerberge de Bourgogne (+ 1020/23)     

     "Geoffroy, comte de Provence (1032/57/60) (+ c. 1061/62)
     "m. c. 1040, Etiennette/Stephanie dite Douce de Marseille (1040/95)

     "Gerberge, comtesse de Provence (1093/1112) (* c. 1060 + 1112/18)
     "m. 1085, Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan et Carlat (+ 1110/12)

     "Douce, comtesse de Provence (1112/27) (+ 1127/30)
     "m. 1112, Raymond-Berenger III, comte de Barcelone (+ 1131)


"2) Revised ancestry according to Jean-Pierre Poly (1976)
     "Guillaume III, comte de Provence (992/1018) (+ 1018)
     "m. 1002, Gerberge de Bourgogne (+ 1020/23)

     "Geoffroy, comte de Provence (1032/57/60) (+ c. 1061/62)
     "m. c. 1040, Etiennette/Stephanie dite Douce de Marseille (1040/95)

     "Bertrand, comte de Provence (1060/90) (+ 1090/94)
     "m. 1061, Mathilde

     "Gerberge, comtesse de Provence (1093/1112) (* c. 1060 + 1112/18)
     "m. 1085, Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan et Carlat (+ 1110/12)

     "Douce, comtesse de Provence (1112/27) (+ 1127/30)
     "m. 1112, Raymond-Berenger III, comte de Barcelone (+ 1131)


     "Evidently the chronology works better in the case of the revised ancestry.
Anybody would care to comment or complete the data. In advance thank you. Jean Bunot"


Per: Bunot email of 7 June 2005:
     "Thank you very much for pointing out the fact that the genealogical chart in itself is at variance with the main text which definitely maintains comtesse Gerberge (wife of Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan et de Carlat) as a d/o comte Geoffroy and Stephanie/Etiennette dite Douce de Marseille. While not impossible, this traditional parentage for comtesse Gerberge presents in my view several difficulties which might not be after all serious impediments. Namely :
     "a) If find it quite unlikely that comte Bertrand (+ 1090/94) was succeded by his sister (Gerberge) rather than by his fully documented daughter (Cecile), the wife of Bernard Aton, vicomte d'Albi-Beziers-Carcassonne, head of the then very powerful lineage of Trencavel, certainly capable of fighting for and upholding the rights and inheritance of his wife in nearby Provence. Why advantaging the vicomtesse de Gevaudan against her niece the vicomtesse d'Albi ? In does not appear to make sense from a feodal point of view.
     "b) the biological chronology is stretched a bit as we have to imagine that Gerberge would have been born, around 1060/61, to a close to sixty years old father (comte Geoffroy, born c. 1002 and died c. 1060/62), after more than 20 years of marriage (which occured likely c. 1040 or maybe a bit earlier), being almost a posthumus daughter. Not impossible but certainly then a very rare instance for mid 11th century.
So what do you think ? With my compliments, Jean Bunot.

">> Still tidying up old queries and not having seen a response to the one raised by Jean Bunot under this header, I thought I'd ask whether anyone sees any problem with my suggesting that the chart to which he refers (fig. 2, p. 34) was erroneously drawn and should not be taken as evidence of a new view? I.e. that Poly had meant to confirm - as he does in the body of his text itself, p. 318 - the >traditional ancestry of Douce< and was proposing no new parentage for Gerberge de Provence.

     "I think Cecily was specifically excluded from the Provence inheritance: she got money instead. But the succession took a long time to sort out after the expiry of the comital dynasty and the murder of Gilbert: not til 1125 after a long war between barcelona and Toulouse.

     ; NB: There is debate on the parentage of Geberga, cts de Provence.
Per Med Lands:
     "The parentage of Gerberge Ctss de Provence has not been ascertained beyond doubt. According to the Histoire Générale de Languedoc, she was the daughter of Geoffroy [I] Comte de Provence[344]. This connection appears to be speculative, based on an idea first raised in 1664 by Honoré Bouche who, in his Histoire Chronologique de Provence a work which contains inaccuracies but does have the merit of quoting some primary sources, says over-optimistically “[je l]’estime fort vray-semblablement, par presomption et conjecture”[345]. The 28 Jul 1094 charter quoted above indicates that the widow of Comte Geoffroy [I] was representing this branch of the Provence comital family, acting presumably on behalf of her descendant Gerberge who must then have still been under age. Although Gerberge was therefore most likely descended from Geoffroy [I], the chronology of her life suggests the improbability that she was his daughter. The birth of Gerberge´s two daughters, probably dated to the late 1090s (her younger daughter Douce is called “puella” in the 3 Feb 1112 charter quoted below), suggests that Gerberge herself would have been born in [1070/84]. This date range can be narrowed further to [1078/84] if it is correct to deduce from the 28 Jul 1094 charter that Gerberge was then still under age. On the other hand, the marriage of Geoffroy [I] is dated to before 1040, Comte Geoffroy died in [1061/62], and the marriages of his other supposed children are dated to the early 1060s (see above). Szabolcs de Vajay, who assumed that Gerberge was the daughter of Geoffroy [I], suggests that she was at least 30 or 32 years old when she married (he dates the marriage to [1090]) and adds that “on peut se demander si c’était sa première alliance”[346]. However, this does not explain why Etiennette [Douce] made the donation under the charter dated 28 Jul 1094, as Gerberge (or her husband if she was already married) could have made the donation in her own name if she had been of age. Another difficulty is that, if Gerberge was the daughter of Geoffroy, the descendants of Cécile, daughter of Comte Bertrand [II] would have had a superior claim to Provence, although no evidence has been found that any such claim to the county was raised. One possibility that would solve that problem is that Gerberge was born to an otherwise unrecorded older sibling of Cécile (brother or sister) who predeceased his/her father. From a chronological point of view, the result is tight, but does not appear impossible. A further factor is introduced by Manteyer who explains the exclusion of Cécile and her descendants by stating that “la coutume de Provence oubliait, au moment de la mort de leurs parents, les filles précédemment dotées par eux”[347]. Unfortunately he cites no source on which he bases this statement. However, the examples of Gerberge’s two daughters (discussed below) and of Beatrix, daughter of Comte Raymond Berenger IV, both provide other cases which fit the pattern. If Manteyer is right, the best solution to the problem could be that Gerberge was the younger sister of Cécile. From a chronological point of view, that would also appear to be the most likely possibility for Gerberge’s parentage. If Gerberge was the granddaughter of Comte Geoffroy [I], the charter dated 28 Jul 1094 in which her grandmother acted on her behalf suggests that both of Gerberge’s parents must have been deceased at the time."

Per the Bunot email of 22 Feb 2005:
     "Gerberge, comtesse de Provence (1107/12) is traditionally considered a d/o Geoffroy, comte de Provence and Etiennette/Stephanie dite Douce de Marseille. Being heiress of Lower-Provence or Arles, she married in 1083, Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan and de Carlat. They had 2 daughters, Douce, comtesse de Barcelone in 1112 and Etiennette/Stephanie, dame de Baux in 1116.
     "Recently, in his acclaimed “La Provence et la societe feodale 879-1166” (1976) in a family chart of the comtes de Provence (fig. 2, p. 34), Jean-Pierre Poly has reassigned Gerberge as a d/o Bertrand, comte de Provence (1055/90) and his wife Mathilde, therefore making her a grand-daughter of comte Geoffroy and a sister of Cecile, vicomtesse d’Albi, Beziers and Carcassonnes (Trencavel). I believe that the reasons
for the revised ancestry are mainly chronological (see below) but also onomastic since the son of Etiennette/Stephanie de Baux is precisely named Bertrand most probably after his most important ancestor, comte Bertrand, and her daughter Matelle/Mathilde de Bigorre would be named after his wife comtesse Mathilde. Lets look more closely at the chronology :
"1) Traditional ancestry of Douce, comtesse de Barcelone
     "Guillaume III, comte de Provence (992/1018) (+ 1018)
     "m. 1002, Gerberge de Bourgogne (+ 1020/23)     

     "Geoffroy, comte de Provence (1032/57/60) (+ c. 1061/62)
     "m. c. 1040, Etiennette/Stephanie dite Douce de Marseille (1040/95)

     "Gerberge, comtesse de Provence (1093/1112) (* c. 1060 + 1112/18)
     "m. 1085, Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan et Carlat (+ 1110/12)

     "Douce, comtesse de Provence (1112/27) (+ 1127/30)
     "m. 1112, Raymond-Berenger III, comte de Barcelone (+ 1131)


"2) Revised ancestry according to Jean-Pierre Poly (1976)
     "Guillaume III, comte de Provence (992/1018) (+ 1018)
     "m. 1002, Gerberge de Bourgogne (+ 1020/23)

     "Geoffroy, comte de Provence (1032/57/60) (+ c. 1061/62)
     "m. c. 1040, Etiennette/Stephanie dite Douce de Marseille (1040/95)

     "Bertrand, comte de Provence (1060/90) (+ 1090/94)
     "m. 1061, Mathilde

     "Gerberge, comtesse de Provence (1093/1112) (* c. 1060 + 1112/18)
     "m. 1085, Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan et Carlat (+ 1110/12)

     "Douce, comtesse de Provence (1112/27) (+ 1127/30)
     "m. 1112, Raymond-Berenger III, comte de Barcelone (+ 1131)


     "Evidently the chronology works better in the case of the revised ancestry.
Anybody would care to comment or complete the data. In advance thank you. Jean Bunot"


Per: Bunot email of 7 June 2005:
     "Thank you very much for pointing out the fact that the genealogical chart in itself is at variance with the main text which definitely maintains comtesse Gerberge (wife of Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan et de Carlat) as a d/o comte Geoffroy and Stephanie/Etiennette dite Douce de Marseille. While not impossible, this traditional parentage for comtesse Gerberge presents in my view several difficulties which might not be after all serious impediments. Namely :
     "a) If find it quite unlikely that comte Bertrand (+ 1090/94) was succeded by his sister (Gerberge) rather than by his fully documented daughter (Cecile), the wife of Bernard Aton, vicomte d'Albi-Beziers-Carcassonne, head of the then very powerful lineage of Trencavel, certainly capable of fighting for and upholding the rights and inheritance of his wife in nearby Provence. Why advantaging the vicomtesse de Gevaudan against her niece the vicomtesse d'Albi ? In does not appear to make sense from a feodal point of view.
     "b) the biological chronology is stretched a bit as we have to imagine that Gerberge would have been born, around 1060/61, to a close to sixty years old father (comte Geoffroy, born c. 1002 and died c. 1060/62), after more than 20 years of marriage (which occured likely c. 1040 or maybe a bit earlier), being almost a posthumus daughter. Not impossible but certainly then a very rare instance for mid 11th century.
So what do you think ? With my compliments, Jean Bunot.

">> Still tidying up old queries and not having seen a response to the one raised by Jean Bunot under this header, I thought I'd ask whether anyone sees any problem with my suggesting that the chart to which he refers (fig. 2, p. 34) was erroneously drawn and should not be taken as evidence of a new view? I.e. that Poly had meant to confirm - as he does in the body of his text itself, p. 318 - the >traditional ancestry of Douce< and was proposing no new parentage for Gerberge de Provence.

     "I think Cecily was specifically excluded from the Provence inheritance: she got money instead. But the succession took a long time to sort out after the expiry of the comital dynasty and the murder of Gilbert: not til 1125 after a long war between barcelona and Toulouse.

; Per Genealogics:
     "Geoffroy was the third son of Guillaume III, comte de Provence, and Gerberge de Bourgogne. He was joint count of Provence with his elder brothers Guillaume IV and Foulque Bertrand I from his father's death in 1018. It is possible that he did not carry the title of Count until after the death of his eldest brother Guillaume around 1032.
     "He became count of Arles in 1032. On 26 May 1037 he and Foulque Bertrand are recorded as making a donation to the Abbey of Cluny. During his brother's life he was secondary to him. With the death of his brother he became sole count with the title marchyo sive comes Provincie. The title of marchio (margrave) implied that he was the head of the dynasty.
     "With his wife Stephanie 'Dulcia' de Marseille, daughter of Bertrand de Marseille, he had a son Bertrand who would succeed him but leave no recorded progeny, and three daughters who would all have progeny. One daughter became the first wife of her cousin Raimond VI, comte de Toulouse; another, Estefania, married Guillermo II Trunus, comte de Besalú et de Ripoll; and the third, Gerberga, married Gilbert, comte de Gevaudan, vicomte de Carlat. Their daughter Doulce/Doulcia would marry Ramon Berenguer III el Grande, conde de Barcelona, Provence & Carcassonne.
     "Geoffroy was a great builder of the Church in his region, devastated in the previous century by Saracen raids. He restored the Abbey of Sparro, which they had destroyed, and gave it to the archiepiscopal see of Aix. Following the example of most of his ancestors, he was a patron of Saint Victor in Marseille. In 1045 he consented to a donation of one of his vicecomital vassals to the monastery and in March 1048 to the transfer of property from Raimbaud, archbishop of Arles, to the Church. On 1 July 1055 and again in 1057, with his wife Stephanie and his son Bertrand, he himself donated property to St Victor. His patronage far exceeded that of his predecessors. He relinquished his rights over any lands the viscount of Marseilles, Foulques, wished to donate to the monastery in 1044, while in 1032 he had consented to turn over lands to the Church as allods. In 1038 he gave over to his vassals comital rights which had been possessed by his house since the reign of his great-grandfather Guillaume II 'le Liberateur', losing control over many castles and fortresses. The royal territory, which had been under control of the counts of Provence since the time of Guillaume, was mostly parcelled out as allods to the vassals during Geoffroy's tenure, and the weakening of the county of Provence as a united polity can be dated from his reign. Even when his lord Rudolf III, king of Burgundy, sold any remaining rights over some royal villae, Geoffroy gave these away as allodial holdings.
     "Geoffroy died about February 1061. He was succeeded by his son Bertrand.”.2

     "GEOFFROY (-[15 Feb/21 Jul] 1060). "Geiriberga comitissima et filii mei Vuilelmus et Fulco sive Josfredus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1018[302], which suggests that Geoffroy was her third son. This appears confirmed by "Wilelmus filius Vilelmi comitis, Fulco frater eius, Gosfredus" subscribing the charter dated 1018 under which "Adalax comitissa mater Villelmi quondam Provintie comitis et Geriberga eque comitissa…eiusdem principis olim uxor" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille for the soul of their late son and husband respectively[303], and by the charter dated 1019 under which "Geriberga comitissa" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille for the soul of "senioris mei Guilelmi comitis Provincie" and for "filiorumque nostrorum…Wilelmo, Fulcho, Jozfredus"[304]. "Gisberga comitissa…cum filiis meis Willelmo, Fulcone Bertranno, Gaufredo" donated property to Saint-André-lès-Avignon by charter dated 1019[305]. His ancestry is confirmed by the charter dated 1057 under which "Gausfredus marchyo sive comes Provincie et uxor mea Stefania et filius meus Bertrannus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille naming "avus meus Wuilelmus marchio sive comes Provincie et avia mea Adalax comitissa"[306]. "Duo fratres, comites Provincie, Gausfredus atque Bertrannus" made a joint donation to Cluny dated 26 May 1037[307]. GEOFFROY [I] Marquis et Comte de Provence. "Gauzfredus marchio sive comes Provincie" consented to the donation by "Guillelmus vicecomes Massiliensis…" to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1045[308]. "Gosfredus et Bertrannus frater meus, utrique Provinciales marchiones sive comites" donated property to Saint-Victor, Marseille by charter dated 1048[309]. “Godfredus comes et uxor mea Stephania et filius meus Bertrannus” donated property by charter dated 15 Feb 1060[310].
     "m (before 27 Jan 1040) [as her first husband,] ETIENNETTE [Douce], daughter of --- (-after 28 Jul 1094, maybe after 11 Sep 1095). "Gaufredus comes" donated property to Monmajour by charter dated 1040, signed by "Bertrannus comes…Stephania comitissa"[311]. The date of her marriage is set by the charter dated 27 Jan 1040 under which "Josfredus comes et uxor mea" confirmed a donation of property to Saint-Victor de Marseille, although it is not clear from the document that the confirmation (which appears after the text which recites the original grant) was contemporaneous with the donation[312]. Raimbaud Archbishop of Arles transferred property in the presence of "Jauffredi comitis et Stephanie uxor sue" by charter dated Mar 1048[313]. "Godfredus comes Provincie et uxor mea Stephania et filius meus Bertrannus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1 Jul 1055[314]. "Gausfredus marchyo sive comes Provincie et uxor mea Stefania et filius meus Bertrannus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1057[315]. “Godfredus comes et uxor mea Stephania et filius meus Bertrannus” donated property by charter dated 15 Feb 1060[316]. A charter dated 28 Jul 1094 records that "Raimundus...comes et Provincie marchio" and “Dulcis comitissa” both donated tolls on the Durance and Rhône rivers to Saint-Victor de Marseille “atque domno Ricardo”, confirming each other’s donations[317]. A charter dated 11 Sep 1095 confirmed a donation to Saint-Victor de Marseille by “Stephania comitissa cognomento Dulcis” for the soul of “filii sui Bertranni comitis”[318]. The wording of this document is silent on whether the donor was deceased at the time. Szabolcs de Vajay indicates that the two documents dated 1094 and 1095 are the only ones which specify her alternative name “Douce” and suggests that Etiennette could have adopted the name in old age, maybe on taking the veil[319]. Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that the wife of Geoffroy [I] Comte de Provence was Etiennette [Douce] de Marseille, daughter of Guillaume [II] Vicomte de Marseille & his second wife Etiennette ---[320]. He relies on the numerous common connections between the Provence and Marseille families in the charters of Marseille Saint-Victor, which indicate the likelihood of a family connection, although he points to no specific document which supports his argument. He also highlights that the supposed mother of Etiennette [Douce] was referred to in sources as “Stephana”, in contrast to the diminutive “Stephanetta” used by her supposed daughter, which he says is consistent with a mother/daughter relationship. However, as can be seen from the extracts quoted in this section, Etiennette [Douce] was not consistently referred to in charters by the diminutive form of her name. "Bertrannus comes et mater mea Stephania…[et] conjux mea Matildis" donated property to Monmajour by charter dated to Feb [1061/62][321]. [Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that Etiennette married secondly ([1062/63]) as his second wife, Bernard [II] Comte de Bigorre[322]. He bases this suggestion on the charter dated 1 Apr 1080 under which "Centullus comes et uxor mea Beatrix et mater eius Stephania" donated the monastery of Saint-Savin de Lavedan "in comitatu Bigorritano" to Marseille Saint-Victor “et abbati Ricardo”[323], pointing out that the Bigorre family made no earlier donations to Marseille Saint-Victor. He also points out that this second marriage would explain the absence of Etiennette [Douce] from any charters in Provence for more than 30 years after the death of Comte Geoffroy [I]. It should be noted that Etiennette, widow of Bermard [II] Comte de Bigorre, was absent from the similar donation made to Marseille Saint-Victor by her daughter and son-in-law dated 12 May 1087[324]. This could indicate that she was deceased by then or (as suggested by Szabolcs de Vajay) that she had returned to Provence. Szabolcs de Vajay’s argument for this second marriage certainly has some appeal, but in the absence of other indications cannot be taken as conclusive.]"

The date of her marriage is set by the charter dated 27 Jan 1040 under which "Josfredus comes et uxor mea" confirmed a donation of property to Saint-Victor de Marseille, although it is not clear from the document that the confirmation (which appears after the text which recites the original grant) was contemporaneous with the donation[644]. Raimbaud Archbishop of Arles transferred property in the presence of "Jauffredi comitis et Stephanie uxor sue" by charter dated Mar 1048[645]. "Godfredus comes Provincie et uxor mea Stephania et filius meus Bertrannus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1 Jul 1055[646]. "Gausfredus marchyo sive comes Provincie et uxor mea Stefania et filius meus Bertrannus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1057[647]. “Godfredus comes et uxor mea Stephania et filius meus Bertrannus” donated property by charter dated 15 Feb 1060[648]. A charter dated 28 Jul 1094 records that "Raimundus...comes et Provincie marchio" and “Dulcis comitissa” both donated tolls on the Durance and Rhône rivers to Saint-Victor de Marseille “atque domno Ricardo”, confirming each other’s donations[649]. A charter dated 11 Sep 1095 confirmed a donation to Saint-Victor de Marseille by “Stephania comitissa cognomento Dulcis” for the soul of “filii sui Bertranni comitis”[650]. The wording of this document is silent on whether the donor was deceased at the time. Szabolcs de Vajay indicates that the two documents dated 1094 and 1095 are the only ones which specify her alternative name “Douce” and suggests that Etiennette could have adopted the name in old age, maybe on taking the veil[651]. [Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that Etiennette married secondly Bernard [II] Comte de Bigorre[652]. He bases this suggestion on the charter dated 1 Apr 1080 under which "Centullus comes et uxor mea Beatrix et mater eius Stephania" donated the monastery of Saint-Savin de Lavedan "in comitatu Bigorritano" to Marseille Saint-Victor “et abbati Ricardo”[653], pointing out that the Bigorre family made no earlier donations to Marseille Saint-Victor. He also points out that this second marriage would explain the absence of Etiennette [Douce] from any charters in Provence for more than 30 years after the death of Comte Geoffroy [I]. It should be noted that Etiennette, widow of Bermard [II] Comte de Bigorre, was absent from the similar donation made to Marseille Saint-Victor by her daughter and son-in-law dated 12 May 1087[654]. This could indicate that she was deceased by then or (as suggested by Szabolcs de Vajay) that she had returned to Provence. Szabolcs de Vajay’s argument for this second marriage has some appeal, but in the absence of other indications cannot be taken as conclusive.]

Etiennette/Stephanie "Dulcia" (?) de Marseille died in 1095.5
     ; NB: There is debate on the parentage of Geberga, cts de Provence.
Per Med Lands:
     "The parentage of Gerberge Ctss de Provence has not been ascertained beyond doubt. According to the Histoire Générale de Languedoc, she was the daughter of Geoffroy [I] Comte de Provence[344]. This connection appears to be speculative, based on an idea first raised in 1664 by Honoré Bouche who, in his Histoire Chronologique de Provence a work which contains inaccuracies but does have the merit of quoting some primary sources, says over-optimistically “[je l]’estime fort vray-semblablement, par presomption et conjecture”[345]. The 28 Jul 1094 charter quoted above indicates that the widow of Comte Geoffroy [I] was representing this branch of the Provence comital family, acting presumably on behalf of her descendant Gerberge who must then have still been under age. Although Gerberge was therefore most likely descended from Geoffroy [I], the chronology of her life suggests the improbability that she was his daughter. The birth of Gerberge´s two daughters, probably dated to the late 1090s (her younger daughter Douce is called “puella” in the 3 Feb 1112 charter quoted below), suggests that Gerberge herself would have been born in [1070/84]. This date range can be narrowed further to [1078/84] if it is correct to deduce from the 28 Jul 1094 charter that Gerberge was then still under age. On the other hand, the marriage of Geoffroy [I] is dated to before 1040, Comte Geoffroy died in [1061/62], and the marriages of his other supposed children are dated to the early 1060s (see above). Szabolcs de Vajay, who assumed that Gerberge was the daughter of Geoffroy [I], suggests that she was at least 30 or 32 years old when she married (he dates the marriage to [1090]) and adds that “on peut se demander si c’était sa première alliance”[346]. However, this does not explain why Etiennette [Douce] made the donation under the charter dated 28 Jul 1094, as Gerberge (or her husband if she was already married) could have made the donation in her own name if she had been of age. Another difficulty is that, if Gerberge was the daughter of Geoffroy, the descendants of Cécile, daughter of Comte Bertrand [II] would have had a superior claim to Provence, although no evidence has been found that any such claim to the county was raised. One possibility that would solve that problem is that Gerberge was born to an otherwise unrecorded older sibling of Cécile (brother or sister) who predeceased his/her father. From a chronological point of view, the result is tight, but does not appear impossible. A further factor is introduced by Manteyer who explains the exclusion of Cécile and her descendants by stating that “la coutume de Provence oubliait, au moment de la mort de leurs parents, les filles précédemment dotées par eux”[347]. Unfortunately he cites no source on which he bases this statement. However, the examples of Gerberge’s two daughters (discussed below) and of Beatrix, daughter of Comte Raymond Berenger IV, both provide other cases which fit the pattern. If Manteyer is right, the best solution to the problem could be that Gerberge was the younger sister of Cécile. From a chronological point of view, that would also appear to be the most likely possibility for Gerberge’s parentage. If Gerberge was the granddaughter of Comte Geoffroy [I], the charter dated 28 Jul 1094 in which her grandmother acted on her behalf suggests that both of Gerberge’s parents must have been deceased at the time."

Per the Bunot email of 22 Feb 2005:
     "Gerberge, comtesse de Provence (1107/12) is traditionally considered a d/o Geoffroy, comte de Provence and Etiennette/Stephanie dite Douce de Marseille. Being heiress of Lower-Provence or Arles, she married in 1083, Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan and de Carlat. They had 2 daughters, Douce, comtesse de Barcelone in 1112 and Etiennette/Stephanie, dame de Baux in 1116.
     "Recently, in his acclaimed “La Provence et la societe feodale 879-1166” (1976) in a family chart of the comtes de Provence (fig. 2, p. 34), Jean-Pierre Poly has reassigned Gerberge as a d/o Bertrand, comte de Provence (1055/90) and his wife Mathilde, therefore making her a grand-daughter of comte Geoffroy and a sister of Cecile, vicomtesse d’Albi, Beziers and Carcassonnes (Trencavel). I believe that the reasons
for the revised ancestry are mainly chronological (see below) but also onomastic since the son of Etiennette/Stephanie de Baux is precisely named Bertrand most probably after his most important ancestor, comte Bertrand, and her daughter Matelle/Mathilde de Bigorre would be named after his wife comtesse Mathilde. Lets look more closely at the chronology :
"1) Traditional ancestry of Douce, comtesse de Barcelone
     "Guillaume III, comte de Provence (992/1018) (+ 1018)
     "m. 1002, Gerberge de Bourgogne (+ 1020/23)     

     "Geoffroy, comte de Provence (1032/57/60) (+ c. 1061/62)
     "m. c. 1040, Etiennette/Stephanie dite Douce de Marseille (1040/95)

     "Gerberge, comtesse de Provence (1093/1112) (* c. 1060 + 1112/18)
     "m. 1085, Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan et Carlat (+ 1110/12)

     "Douce, comtesse de Provence (1112/27) (+ 1127/30)
     "m. 1112, Raymond-Berenger III, comte de Barcelone (+ 1131)


"2) Revised ancestry according to Jean-Pierre Poly (1976)
     "Guillaume III, comte de Provence (992/1018) (+ 1018)
     "m. 1002, Gerberge de Bourgogne (+ 1020/23)

     "Geoffroy, comte de Provence (1032/57/60) (+ c. 1061/62)
     "m. c. 1040, Etiennette/Stephanie dite Douce de Marseille (1040/95)

     "Bertrand, comte de Provence (1060/90) (+ 1090/94)
     "m. 1061, Mathilde

     "Gerberge, comtesse de Provence (1093/1112) (* c. 1060 + 1112/18)
     "m. 1085, Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan et Carlat (+ 1110/12)

     "Douce, comtesse de Provence (1112/27) (+ 1127/30)
     "m. 1112, Raymond-Berenger III, comte de Barcelone (+ 1131)


     "Evidently the chronology works better in the case of the revised ancestry.
Anybody would care to comment or complete the data. In advance thank you. Jean Bunot"


Per: Bunot email of 7 June 2005:
     "Thank you very much for pointing out the fact that the genealogical chart in itself is at variance with the main text which definitely maintains comtesse Gerberge (wife of Girbert, vicomte de Millau-Gevaudan et de Carlat) as a d/o comte Geoffroy and Stephanie/Etiennette dite Douce de Marseille. While not impossible, this traditional parentage for comtesse Gerberge presents in my view several difficulties which might not be after all serious impediments. Namely :
     "a) If find it quite unlikely that comte Bertrand (+ 1090/94) was succeded by his sister (Gerberge) rather than by his fully documented daughter (Cecile), the wife of Bernard Aton, vicomte d'Albi-Beziers-Carcassonne, head of the then very powerful lineage of Trencavel, certainly capable of fighting for and upholding the rights and inheritance of his wife in nearby Provence. Why advantaging the vicomtesse de Gevaudan against her niece the vicomtesse d'Albi ? In does not appear to make sense from a feodal point of view.
     "b) the biological chronology is stretched a bit as we have to imagine that Gerberge would have been born, around 1060/61, to a close to sixty years old father (comte Geoffroy, born c. 1002 and died c. 1060/62), after more than 20 years of marriage (which occured likely c. 1040 or maybe a bit earlier), being almost a posthumus daughter. Not impossible but certainly then a very rare instance for mid 11th century.
So what do you think ? With my compliments, Jean Bunot.

I.e. that Poly had meant to confirm - as he does in the body of his text itself, p. 318 - the >traditional ancestry of Douce< and was proposing no new parentage for Gerberge de Provence.

     "I think Cecily was specifically excluded from the Provence inheritance: she got money instead. But the succession took a long time to sort out after the expiry of the comital dynasty and the murder of Gilbert: not til 1125 after a long war between barcelona and Toulouse.

     "GEOFFROY (-[15 Feb/21 Jul] 1060). "Geiriberga comitissima et filii mei Vuilelmus et Fulco sive Josfredus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1018[302], which suggests that Geoffroy was her third son. This appears confirmed by "Wilelmus filius Vilelmi comitis, Fulco frater eius, Gosfredus" subscribing the charter dated 1018 under which "Adalax comitissa mater Villelmi quondam Provintie comitis et Geriberga eque comitissa…eiusdem principis olim uxor" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille for the soul of their late son and husband respectively[303], and by the charter dated 1019 under which "Geriberga comitissa" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille for the soul of "senioris mei Guilelmi comitis Provincie" and for "filiorumque nostrorum…Wilelmo, Fulcho, Jozfredus"[304]. "Gisberga comitissa…cum filiis meis Willelmo, Fulcone Bertranno, Gaufredo" donated property to Saint-André-lès-Avignon by charter dated 1019[305]. His ancestry is confirmed by the charter dated 1057 under which "Gausfredus marchyo sive comes Provincie et uxor mea Stefania et filius meus Bertrannus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille naming "avus meus Wuilelmus marchio sive comes Provincie et avia mea Adalax comitissa"[306]. "Duo fratres, comites Provincie, Gausfredus atque Bertrannus" made a joint donation to Cluny dated 26 May 1037[307]. GEOFFROY [I] Marquis et Comte de Provence. "Gauzfredus marchio sive comes Provincie" consented to the donation by "Guillelmus vicecomes Massiliensis…" to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1045[308]. "Gosfredus et Bertrannus frater meus, utrique Provinciales marchiones sive comites" donated property to Saint-Victor, Marseille by charter dated 1048[309]. “Godfredus comes et uxor mea Stephania et filius meus Bertrannus” donated property by charter dated 15 Feb 1060[310].
     "m (before 27 Jan 1040) [as her first husband,] ETIENNETTE [Douce], daughter of --- (-after 28 Jul 1094, maybe after 11 Sep 1095). "Gaufredus comes" donated property to Monmajour by charter dated 1040, signed by "Bertrannus comes…Stephania comitissa"[311]. The date of her marriage is set by the charter dated 27 Jan 1040 under which "Josfredus comes et uxor mea" confirmed a donation of property to Saint-Victor de Marseille, although it is not clear from the document that the confirmation (which appears after the text which recites the original grant) was contemporaneous with the donation[312]. Raimbaud Archbishop of Arles transferred property in the presence of "Jauffredi comitis et Stephanie uxor sue" by charter dated Mar 1048[313]. "Godfredus comes Provincie et uxor mea Stephania et filius meus Bertrannus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1 Jul 1055[314]. "Gausfredus marchyo sive comes Provincie et uxor mea Stefania et filius meus Bertrannus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1057[315]. “Godfredus comes et uxor mea Stephania et filius meus Bertrannus” donated property by charter dated 15 Feb 1060[316]. A charter dated 28 Jul 1094 records that "Raimundus...comes et Provincie marchio" and “Dulcis comitissa” both donated tolls on the Durance and Rhône rivers to Saint-Victor de Marseille “atque domno Ricardo”, confirming each other’s donations[317]. A charter dated 11 Sep 1095 confirmed a donation to Saint-Victor de Marseille by “Stephania comitissa cognomento Dulcis” for the soul of “filii sui Bertranni comitis”[318]. The wording of this document is silent on whether the donor was deceased at the time. Szabolcs de Vajay indicates that the two documents dated 1094 and 1095 are the only ones which specify her alternative name “Douce” and suggests that Etiennette could have adopted the name in old age, maybe on taking the veil[319]. Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that the wife of Geoffroy [I] Comte de Provence was Etiennette [Douce] de Marseille, daughter of Guillaume [II] Vicomte de Marseille & his second wife Etiennette ---[320]. He relies on the numerous common connections between the Provence and Marseille families in the charters of Marseille Saint-Victor, which indicate the likelihood of a family connection, although he points to no specific document which supports his argument. He also highlights that the supposed mother of Etiennette [Douce] was referred to in sources as “Stephana”, in contrast to the diminutive “Stephanetta” used by her supposed daughter, which he says is consistent with a mother/daughter relationship. However, as can be seen from the extracts quoted in this section, Etiennette [Douce] was not consistently referred to in charters by the diminutive form of her name. "Bertrannus comes et mater mea Stephania…[et] conjux mea Matildis" donated property to Monmajour by charter dated to Feb [1061/62][321]. [Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that Etiennette married secondly ([1062/63]) as his second wife, Bernard [II] Comte de Bigorre[322]. He bases this suggestion on the charter dated 1 Apr 1080 under which "Centullus comes et uxor mea Beatrix et mater eius Stephania" donated the monastery of Saint-Savin de Lavedan "in comitatu Bigorritano" to Marseille Saint-Victor “et abbati Ricardo”[323], pointing out that the Bigorre family made no earlier donations to Marseille Saint-Victor. He also points out that this second marriage would explain the absence of Etiennette [Douce] from any charters in Provence for more than 30 years after the death of Comte Geoffroy [I]. It should be noted that Etiennette, widow of Bermard [II] Comte de Bigorre, was absent from the similar donation made to Marseille Saint-Victor by her daughter and son-in-law dated 12 May 1087[324]. This could indicate that she was deceased by then or (as suggested by Szabolcs de Vajay) that she had returned to Provence. Szabolcs de Vajay’s argument for this second marriage certainly has some appeal, but in the absence of other indications cannot be taken as conclusive.]"

; Per Med Lands:
     "[ETIENNETTE [Douce] (-after 28 Jul 1094, maybe after 11 Sep 1095). Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that the wife of Geoffroy [I] Comte de Provence was the daughter of Guillaume [II] Vicomte de Marseille & his second wife[642]. He relies on the numerous common connections between the Provence and Marseille families in the charters of Marseille Saint-Victor, which indicate the likelihood of a family connection, although he points to no specific document which supports his argument. He also highlights that the supposed mother of Etiennette [Douce] was referred to in sources as “Stephana”, in contrast to the diminutive “Stephanetta” used by her supposed daughter, which he says is consistent with a mother/daughter relationship. However, as can be seen from the extracts quoted in this section, Etiennette [Douce] was not consistently referred to in charters by the diminutive form of her name. "Gaufredus comes" donated property to Monmajour by charter dated 1040, signed by "Bertrannus comes…Stephania comitissa"[643]. The date of her marriage is set by the charter dated 27 Jan 1040 under which "Josfredus comes et uxor mea" confirmed a donation of property to Saint-Victor de Marseille, although it is not clear from the document that the confirmation (which appears after the text which recites the original grant) was contemporaneous with the donation[644]. Raimbaud Archbishop of Arles transferred property in the presence of "Jauffredi comitis et Stephanie uxor sue" by charter dated Mar 1048[645]. "Godfredus comes Provincie et uxor mea Stephania et filius meus Bertrannus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1 Jul 1055[646]. "Gausfredus marchyo sive comes Provincie et uxor mea Stefania et filius meus Bertrannus" donated property to Saint-Victor de Marseille by charter dated 1057[647]. “Godfredus comes et uxor mea Stephania et filius meus Bertrannus” donated property by charter dated 15 Feb 1060[648]. A charter dated 28 Jul 1094 records that "Raimundus...comes et Provincie marchio" and “Dulcis comitissa” both donated tolls on the Durance and Rhône rivers to Saint-Victor de Marseille “atque domno Ricardo”, confirming each other’s donations[649]. A charter dated 11 Sep 1095 confirmed a donation to Saint-Victor de Marseille by “Stephania comitissa cognomento Dulcis” for the soul of “filii sui Bertranni comitis”[650]. The wording of this document is silent on whether the donor was deceased at the time. Szabolcs de Vajay indicates that the two documents dated 1094 and 1095 are the only ones which specify her alternative name “Douce” and suggests that Etiennette could have adopted the name in old age, maybe on taking the veil[651]. [Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that Etiennette married secondly Bernard [II] Comte de Bigorre[652]. He bases this suggestion on the charter dated 1 Apr 1080 under which "Centullus comes et uxor mea Beatrix et mater eius Stephania" donated the monastery of Saint-Savin de Lavedan "in comitatu Bigorritano" to Marseille Saint-Victor “et abbati Ricardo”[653], pointing out that the Bigorre family made no earlier donations to Marseille Saint-Victor. He also points out that this second marriage would explain the absence of Etiennette [Douce] from any charters in Provence for more than 30 years after the death of Comte Geoffroy [I]. It should be noted that Etiennette, widow of Bermard [II] Comte de Bigorre, was absent from the similar donation made to Marseille Saint-Victor by her daughter and son-in-law dated 12 May 1087[654]. This could indicate that she was deceased by then or (as suggested by Szabolcs de Vajay) that she had returned to Provence. Szabolcs de Vajay’s argument for this second marriage has some appeal, but in the absence of other indications cannot be taken as conclusive.]
