      ; He participated in Duke William's victory over the French at Mortemer in 1054, and was sent by William to alarm the King of France with the news. About 1060 he was banished with Hugh de Grandmesnil and Ernald d'Echauffour, which led to Ralph and Ernald burning the Normandy town of St. Evroul in revenge. However, in 1063 they were recalled and Ralph was one of nine nobles summoned to counsel William on the news of the death of Edward the Confessor in England. He fount at Hastings, was given estates in seven counties by 1086, but kept his seat at Flanstead in Hertfordshire. He supported Rober Curthose against the king about 1078, and in 1080 went on a pilgrimage to Spain, agter which he made figts to the abbey in St. Evroul, the town which he had helped to destroy. After William the Conqueror died he was among the NOrman nobility who expelled royal garrisons from their castles, and in 1088 he served under Duke Robert against Maine. Due to a personal Quarrel between his wife Isabel and her sister-in-law Hwise, who was wife of her brother William, comte d'Evreux, the count attacked Ralph, besieging Conches. When William Rufus directed his adherents in Normandy to aid Ralph the tide turned, and after three years peace was established.1

; Roger's son Ralph succeeded to his father's rank and estates. He too fell foul of his lord, Duke William, and was sent unto exile in about 1060. Recalled in 1063 when William's invasion of Maine made expedient a reconciliation with the barons of southern Normandy, Ralph thereafter served his duke faithfully. He fought at Hastings in 1066 and though he did not personally acquire any lands in England, other members of the family did: Domesday Book reveals Tosnys holding estates in Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, and Yorkshire. Like his father Roger, Ralph visited Spain (between 1066 and 1076): we do not know whether this was in quest of military adventure or as a pilgrim to Santiago de Compostela. Ralph lived to a considerable age. Before his death in 1102 he saw his son-in-law Baldwin of Boulogne, one of the leaders of the First Crusade, established in the east first as count of Edessa (1098-1100) and then as king of Jerusalem (1100-18).11 GAV-26 EDV-26 GKJ-27.

     "Waltheof was the son of Siward 'the Dane', earl of Northumberland, and Elfleda of Northumberland. In 1054 Waltheof's brother Osbearn, who was much older than him, was killed in battle, making Waltheof his father's heir. Siward himself died in 1055, and Waltheof being far too young to succeed as earl of Northumbria, King Edward appointed Toste Godwinson to the earldom.
     "Waltheof is described as strong and of great repute as a warrior, but also pious. He had learnt the Psalter in his youth, was liberal to the clergy and the poor, and was a benefactor in particular in Jarrow and Crowland. The chief stain on his memory is his part in a family blood feud, for he ordered the murder of the sons of one Carl, who had killed Earl Ealdred, Waltheof's grandfather.
     "In October 1065, when Toste Godwinson, earl of Northumberland and brother of the future King Harold II was banished, Waltheof became earl of Huntingdon and earl of Northumberland. He is not known to have opposed William the Conqueror in 1066, but in the following year he was taken to Normandy. In 1069 he joined the Danes in their descent on Yorkshire, distinguishing himself in the attack on the city of York. In January 1070 when the Danes left, he submitted himself to William the Conqueror and was restored to his earldom, and in 1072 to his father's earldom of Northumberland.
     "In 1070 Waltheof married Judith of Lens, daughter of Lambert, comte de Lens and Adela of Normandy, comtesse d'Aumale, the sister of William 'the Conqueror', they had two daughters, both of whom would have progeny.
     "While attending the wedding of Ralph de Gael, earl of Norfolk, at Exning in the spring or summer of 1075, Waltheof was enticed to join the conspiracy of the earls of Norfolk and Hereford to seize England for themselves. He quickly repented, and on Lanfranc's advice he went to Normandy and asked pardon of the king, who treated the matter lightly at the time; but at Christmas Waltheof was brought to trial at Westminster, his wife Judith being a witness. He was imprisoned at Winchester, and on the resumption of the trial in May he was condemned and beheaded on St. Giles's Hill on 31 May 1076, and hastily buried. 'And here Earl Waltheof was beheaded in Winchester on the Feast of St. Petronella; and his body was led to Crowland, and there he is buried.' (_The Worcester Manuscript_)
     "A fortnight after Waltheof was beheaded, the Abbot Ulfketel, at Judith's request and by the king's permission, removed his body to Crowland, where it was honourably entombed. Many miracles are recorded as many regarded Waltheof as a saint.
     "His widow, recorded in Domesday as 'Judith the Countess', held Huntingdon as dower. She is recorded as holding estates in many counties in 1086, most of them apparently gifts from the king her uncle. She founded the Nunnery of Elstow, near Bedford."3

; There seems to have been an Earldom of Huntingdon before the Norman Conquest, among its holders then being KING HAROLD, according to the chronicler Florence of Worcester, and Tostig, HAROLD's brother. The first post-Conquest Earl of Huntingdon appears to have been Waltheof, son of Siward Earl of Northumberland (see NORTHUMBERLAND, D, preliminary remarks) and indeed Siward's successor in the latter Earldom as well. Waltheof was later beheaded for conspiring against WILLIAM THE CONQUEROR. His son-in-law Simon de St Liz was the next holder of the Earldom, the family connections of Simon's wife Maud making the transition a natural one under the terms prevailing then. Indeed the history of the Earldom over the next few decades amply illustrates the almost chattel-like nature of such a title at this time, a quasi-hereditary post which was nevertheless as often as not held from the king at pleasure and which could be transferred between members of the same family like a parcel of land.15

; Per Med Lands:
     "WALTHEOF, son of SIWARD Earl of Northumbria & his wife Ælfled of Northumbria (-executed St Giles's Hill, Winchester 31 May 1076, bur Crowland Abbey[655]). His parentage is recorded by Roger of Hoveden[656]. Matthew Paris specifies that he was the son of Siward, of Danish origin[657]. Snorre names “Earl Valthiof”, although stating that he was the son of “Earl Gudin Ulfnadson” and “Earl Ulf’s sister Gyda”[658]. He was installed as Earl of Huntingdon and Northamptonshire after Tostig Godwinson was banished in Oct 1065. Snorre recounts that “Earl Morukare and…Earl Valthiof” failed to prevent Harald III King of Norway after landing on the river Humber in 1066 in a battle “upon the Wednesday next Mathias’ day”, adding that “Earl Valthiof…fled up to the castle of York”[659]. Snorre also recounts that “Earl Valthiof” took part in the battle of Hastings and “escaped by flight”, seriously condensing his account of Waltheof’s subsequent career when he adds that King William “sent a message to Earl Valthiof that they should be reconciled” but that he was captured “at a heath north of Kastala-bryggia…put…in fetters and afterwards he was beheaded”[660]. Snorre’s narrative includes two fragments of a poem in praise of Waltheof, presumably written contemporarily with Waltheof’s life. Jonathan Allen suggests that Waltheof himself may have patronised an Icelandic skald (court poet) whose work was eventually passed through to Snorre, providing interesting evidence of the persistence of Scandinavian culture in England in the second half of the 11th century[661]. Florence of Worcester records that "Waltheofum Siwardi ducis filius" went with King William to Normandy 21 Feb [1067][662]. Orderic Vitalis records that “Stigandum archipræsulem, Edgarum Adelinum Eduardi regis consobrinum et tres...comites: Eduinum, Morcarum et Guallevum, Egelnodum quoque Cantuariensem satrapam” accompanied King William to Normandy, dated to 1067 from the context[663]. Orderic Vitalis records that “Suenus rex Danorum” sent a fleet led by “duos...filios suos et Osbernum fratrem suum” to attack England, that they were repulsed at Dover, Sandwich and Ipswich, and at Norwich by “Radulfus de Guader”, that they were joined by “Adelinus, Guallevus, Siguardus” but defeated on the Humber, entered York headed by “Guallevus...Gaius Patricius, Marius Suenus, Elnocinus, Archillus et quatuor filii Karoli” but were eventually expelled, dated to 1069, a later passage adding that “Guallevus præsens et Gaius Patricius absens” made peace with King William at the river Tees[664]. Orderic Vitalis records that King William I granted "comitatum Northamtoniæ" to "Guallevo comiti filio Sivardi" and "Judith neptem suam" in marriage[665]. Simeon of Durham records that "Waltheu the son of earl Siward…by Elfleda daughter of Earl Aldred" was installed as Earl of Northumberland after the earldom was confiscated from Gospatrick [in 1072][666]. Earl Waltheof joined the conspiracy of the Earls of Norfolk and Hereford against King William in 1075, repented and asked for the king's pardon, but was tried at Westminster at Christmas 1075, imprisoned at Winchester and, after the trial resumed there, beheaded[667]. Florence of Worcester records that "comitumque Waltheofum" joined the conspiracy of William Earl of Hereford and Ralph Earl of Norfolk in [1074] but was tried and beheaded at Winchester the following year[668].
     "m (1070) JUDITH de Lens, daughter of LAMBERT de Boulogne Comte de Lens & his wife Adelais de Normandie (1054-after 1086). Orderic Vitalis records that King William I granted "comitatum Northamtoniæ" to "Guallevo comiti filio Sivardi" and "Judith neptem suam" in marriage[669]. A manuscript records that “Juditha comitissa…uxor Waldevi comitis Huntingdon, et neptis Gulielmi Conquestoris” founded Elstow priory[670]. Her parentage is further clarified by the foundation charter of Saint-Martin d’Auchy narrates the church’s foundation by “Guerinfrido qui condidit castellum…Albamarla” and names “Engueranni consulis qui filius fuit Berte supradicti Guerinfridi filie et Adelidis comitisse uxoris sue sororis…Willelmi Regis Anglorum” and “Addelidis comitissa supradicti Engueranni et supradicte Adelidis filia…Judita comitissa domine supradicte filia”[671]. The Vita et Passio Waldevi Comitis records that “Waldevus” married “rex Willelmus…neptem suam Juettam filiam comitis Lamberti de Lens, sororem…Stephani comitis de Albemarlia”[672]. Orderic Vitalis records that "Judith uxoris suæ" betrayed “Guallevus comes” to the king in relation to the conspiracy with the earls of Hereford and Norfolk of which he was accused[673]. "

; Per Wikipedia:
     "Waltheof, 1st Earl of Northumbria (died 31 May 1076) was the last of the Anglo-Saxon earls and the only English aristocrat to be executed during the reign of William I.
Early life
     "Waltheof was the second son of Siward, Earl of Northumbria. His mother was Aelfflaed, daughter of Ealdred, Earl of Bernicia, son of Uhtred, Earl of Northumbria. In 1054, Waltheof's brother, Osbearn, who was much older than he, was killed in battle, making Waltheof his father's heir. Siward himself died in 1055, and Waltheof being far too young to succeed as Earl of Northumbria, King Edward appointed Tostig Godwinson to the earldom.
     "Waltheof was said to be devout and charitable and was probably educated for a monastic life. Around 1065, however, he became an earl, governing Northamptonshire and Huntingdonshire. Following the Battle of Hastings he submitted to William and was allowed to keep his pre-Conquest title and possessions.[1] He remained at William's court until 1068.
First revolt
     "When Sweyn II invaded Northern England in 1069, Waltheof and Edgar Aetheling joined the Danes and took part in the attack on York. He would again make a fresh submission to William after the departure of the invaders in 1070. He was restored to his earldom, and went on to marry William's niece, Judith of Lens. In 1072, he was appointed Earl of Northampton.[1]
     "The Domesday Book mentions Waltheof ("Walleff"): "'In Hallam ("Halun"), one manor with its sixteen hamlets, there are twenty-nine carucates [~14 km²] to be taxed. There Earl Waltheof had an "Aula" [hall or court]. There may have been about twenty ploughs. This land Roger de Busli holds of the Countess Judith." (Hallam, or Hallamshire, is now part of the city of Sheffield)
     "In 1072, William expelled Gospatric from the earldom of Northumbria. Gospatric was Waltheof's cousin and had taken part in the attack on York with him, but like Waltheof, had been pardoned by William. Gospatric fled into exile and William appointed Waltheof as the new earl. Construction of Durham Castle began under Waltheof in 1072 after receiving orders to commence this project from William. The castle would be significantly expanded by Bishop William Walcher and his successors in later years.[2]
     "Waltheof had many enemies in the north. Amongst them were members of a family who had killed Waltheof's maternal great-grandfather, Uchtred the Bold, and his grandfather Ealdred. This was part of a long-running blood feud. In 1074, Waltheof moved against the family by sending his retainers to ambush them, succeeding in killing the two eldest of four brothers.
Second revolt and death
     "In 1075 Waltheof joined the Revolt of the Earls against William. His motives for taking part in the revolt are unclear, as is the depth of his involvement. However he repented, confessing his guilt first to Archbishop Lanfranc and then in person to William, who was at the time in Normandy. He returned to England with William but was arrested, brought twice before the king's court and sentenced to death.[1]
     "He spent almost a year in confinement before being beheaded on 31 May 1076 at St. Giles's Hill, near Winchester.[1] He was said to have spent the months of his captivity in prayer and fasting. Many people believed in his innocence and were surprised when the execution was carried out. His body was initially thrown into a ditch, but was later retrieved and buried in the chapter house of Crowland Abbey in Lincolnshire.
Cult of martyrdom
     "In 1092, after a fire in the chapter house, the abbot had Waltheof's body moved to a prominent place in the abbey church. When the coffin was opened, it is reported that the corpse was found to be intact with the severed head re-joined to the trunk.[3] This was regarded as a miracle, and the abbey, which had a financial interest in the matter began to publicise it. As a result, pilgrims began to visit Waltheof's tomb. He was commemorated on 31 August.[4][5]
     "After a few years healing miracles were reputed to occur in the vicinity of Waltheof's tomb, often involving the restoration of the pilgrim's lost sight. They are described in the Miracula Sancti Waldevi. Waltheof's life thus became the subject of popular media, heroic but inaccurate accounts being preserved in the Vita et Passio Waldevi comitis,[6] a Middle English Waltheof saga, since lost, and the Anglo-Norman Waldef.[7]
Family and children
     "In 1070 Waltheof married Judith de Lens, daughter of Lambert II, Count of Lens and Adelaide of Normandy, Countess of Aumale. They had three children, the eldest of whom, Maud, brought the earldom of Huntingdon to her second husband, David I of Scotland, and another, Adelise, married the Anglo-Norman noble Raoul III of Tosny.
     "One of Waltheof's grandsons was Waltheof (died 1159), abbot of Melrose.[1]

     "Judith was born in Normandy about 1054, the daughter of Lambert, comte de Lens, and Adela of Normandy, comtesse d'Aumale, the sister of William 'the Conqueror'.
     "In 1070 she married Waltheof, earl of Northumberland, Huntingdon and Northampton, son of Siward 'the Dane', earl of Northumberland, and Elfleda of Northumberland. Their daughters Maud and Alice would have progeny. Maud, the eldest, brought the earldom of Huntingdon to her second husband Dabid mac Máil Choluim, David I 'the Saint', king of Scots.
     "In 1075 Waltheof joined the Revolt of the Earls against William. It was the last serious act of resistance against the Norman conquest of England. Judith betrayed Waltheof to her uncle, who had Waltheof beheaded on 31 May 1076.
     "After Waltheof's execution Judith was betrothed by William to Simon de St.Liz, earl of Huntingdon and Northampton. Judith refused to marry Simon and she fled the country to avoid William's anger. He then temporarily confiscated all of Judith's English estates.
     "Judith founded the convent at Elstowe in Bedfordshire in about 1078. She also founded churches at Kempston and Hitchin. She had land holdings in ten countries in the Midlands and East Anglia.
     "Judith died after 1086. In 1090 Simon de St.Liz became the first husband of Judith's daughter Maud."5

Reference: Per Weis [1992:115] 130-25: "Though generally shown as child of (2) Lambert of Lens, there is a possibility that she was a child of the 1st mar. to Enguerrand II of Ponthieu."13

Life
     "In 1070, Judith married Earl Waltheof of Huntingdon and Northumbria. They had three children. Their eldest daughter, Maud, brought the earldom of Huntingdon to her second husband, David I of Scotland. Their daughter, Adelise, married Raoul III de Conches whose sister, Godehilde, married Baldwin I of Jerusalem.
     "In 1075, Waltheof joined the Revolt of the Earls against William. It was the last serious act of resistance against the Norman conquest of England. Judith betrayed Waltheof to her uncle, who had Waltheof beheaded on 31 May 1076.
     "After Waltheof's execution Judith was betrothed by William to Simon I of St. Liz, 1st Earl of Northampton. Judith refused to marry Simon and she fled the country to avoid William's anger. William then temporarily confiscated all of Judith's English estates. Finally, Simon married Judith's daughter, Maud, in or before 1090.
     "Judith founded Elstow Abbey in Bedfordshire around 1078. She also founded churches at Kempston and Hitchin.
     "She had land-holdings in 10 counties in the Midlands and East Anglia. Her holdings included land at:
** Earls Barton, Northamptonshire
** Great Doddington, Northamptonshire
** Grendon, Northamptonshire
** Ashby Folville, Leicestershire
** Lowesby, Leicestershire
** Merton, Oxfordshire
** Piddington, Oxfordshire
** Potton, Bedfordshire
** Sawtry, Huntingdonshire
     "The parish of Sawtry Judith in Huntingdonshire is named after the Countess.
From the Domesday Book
     "In POTONE Hugh holds ½ virgate of land from the Countess. Land for 1 plough; it is there, with 1 smallholder. The value is and was 5s; before 1066, 2s. Earl Tosti held this land in Potton, his manor.
     "Countess Judith holds POTONE herself. It answers for 10 hides. Land for 12 ploughs. In lordship 3½ hides; 3 ploughs there. 18 villagers and 2 Freemen with 8 ploughs; a ninth possible. 13 smallholders and 3 slaves. 1 mill, 5s; meadow for 12 ploughs; pasture for the village livestock. In total, value £12; when acquired 100s; before 1066 £13. King Edward held this manor; it was Earl Tosti's. There were 4 Freemen who had 1 hide and 1 virgate; they could grant to whom they would.
     "In (Cockayne) HATLEY Countess Judith holds 3 hides and 2½ virgates as one manor. Land for 6½ ploughs. In lordship 1 hide and ½ virgate; 2 ploughs there. 8 villagers with 4½ ploughs; woodland, 4 pigs. Value £6 5s; when acquired 100s; before 1066 £6. Earl Tosti held this manor. It lies in Potton, the Countess' own manor. A Freeman had 1 virgate; he could grant and sell, and withdraw to another lord.

     "JUDITH (1054-after 1086). The foundation charter of Saint-Martin d’Auchy narrates the church’s foundation by “Guerinfrido qui condidit castellum…Albamarla” and names “Engueranni consulis qui filius fuit Berte supradicti Guerinfridi filie et Adelidis comitisse uxoris sue sororis…Willelmi Regis Anglorum” and “Addelidis comitissa supradicti Engueranni et supradicte Adelidis filia…Judita comitissa domine supradicte filia”[1532]. The Vita et Passio Waldevi Comitis records that “Waldevus” married “rex Willelmus…neptem suam Juettam filiam comitis Lamberti de Lens, sororem…Stephani comitis de Albemarlia”[1533]. A manuscript records that “Juditha comitissa…uxor Waldevi comitis Huntingdon, et neptis Gulielmi Conquestoris” founded Elstow priory[1534]. Orderic Vitalis records that King William I granted "comitatum Northamtoniæ" to "Guallevo comiti filio Sivardi" and "Judith neptem suam" in marriage[1535]. Orderic Vitalis records that "Judith uxoris suæ" betrayed “Guallevus comes” to the king in relation to the conspiracy with the earls of Hereford and Norfolk of which he was accused[1536].

; from the Henry Project: "Adelaide, m (1) Enguerrand II, count of Ponthieu, (2) Lambert, seigneur of Lens, (3) Eudes, count of Champagne.
Stapleton (1836), 350-1, quotes part of a charter mentioning count (consul) Enguerrand (son of Berta, daughter of Guerinfridus, who built the castle of Aumâle), his wife Addelidis, daughter of king William of England, countess Addelidis, daughter of Enguerrand and Addelidis aforesaid, and countess Judith (daughter of Addelidis the mother). Robert de Torigny, in his additions to GND, states in one place that Stephen, count of Aumâle, was son of count Eudes of Champagne and a nephew of William the elder through a sister ("... Stephanus, comes de Albamarla filius Odonis comitis de Campania, Willelmi autem regis Anglorum senioris ex sorore nepos ...") [GND (Rob. Tor.), viii, 3 (vol. 2, pp. 206-7)], and in another that Waltheof, earl of Huntingdon, had three daughters by his wife, a daughter of the countess of Aumâle, who had been a "uterine sister" of William ("Habuit enim idem Walleus tres filias ex uxore sua, filia comitisse de Albamarla, que comitissa fuit soror uterina Willelmi regis Anglorum senioris.") [GND (Rob. Tor.) viii, 37 (vol. 2, pp. 270-3)]. The Chronicle of Robert de Torigny states that Robert's daughter "Aeliz" (not strictly the same name as "Adelaide", but often confused with it, both then and now) was by a concubine other than Herleva ("... Robertus frater eius, qui genuit Willermum de Herleva non sponsata, qui postea Angliam conquisivit, et unam filiam nomine Aeliz de alia concubina.") [s.a. 1026, MGH SS 6, 478]. The name of Adelaide's second husband Lambert comes from two Scottish sources. The "Life of Waltheof" states that Waltheof's wife Judith was a niece of William the Conqueror, a daughter of count Lambert of Lens, and a sister of count Stephen of Aumâle [translation of relevant passage given in ESSH 2: 33], and the Chronicle of the Canons of Huntingdon also states that Judith was a daughter of count Lambert of Lens [ESSH 2: 28].
The above stated evidence combines to give a consistent picture for Adelaide's three marriages listed above. The evidence presents some minor problems, but they do not seem to be serious. Stapleton (1836) argued that count Eudes was married to the younger Adelaide, daughter of the present Adelaide by her first husband Enguerrand, but the evidence is consistent in making the younger Adelaide, Judith, and Stephen the children of Adelaide by three different husbands (although no single source gives all of this information). The most significant contradiction would appear to be Robert de Torigny's statement in one place that Adelaide was "soror uterina" to William, but, as pointed out Elisabeth van Houts, Robert uses the same adjective "uterine" in one other place to refer to duke Richard II of Normandy and his paternal half-brother count William of Eu [GND (Rob. Tor.), vii, (20) (vol. 2, pp. 128-8); van Houts (2002), 23, n. 22]. Thus, the evidence clearly suggests that William and Adelaide had different mothers. (Geoffrey White had left the matter of Adelaide's maternity open in his discussion of William's siblings in The Complete Peerage [White].) Another problem concerns Adelaide's second marriage to count Lambert of Lens. Morton & Muntz (1972), 127, stating that the Life of Waltheof was the only source for the second marriage (but erroneously, as the Chronicle of the Canons of Huntingdon also mentions Lambert as Judith's father: see the previous paragraph), and noting that Lambert died less than a year after Enguerrand, suggested that no such marriage took place. However, Barlow (1999), xlv, pointed out that Enguerrand was excommunicated in 1049 for "incest" (evidently because Enguerrand's sister had been married to Adelaide's uncle), leaving open the possibility that Lambert had married Adelaide before 1053.
[Note: Adelaide and her daughter Judith were the subject of numerous discussions on the soc.genealogy.medieval/GEN-MEDIEVAL internet newsgroup/mailing list in March 2003, of which postings by Chris Phillips (pointing out the van Houts paper and the Tabularia website), Douglas Richardson (pointing out that the Life of Waltheof was not the only source naming Lambert as the father of Judith) and Nathaniel Taylor (pointing out the discussion in Carmen de Hastingae Proelio) were particularly helpful.]"15

His absence from the charter dated to [1056/60], witnessed by "comes Eudo, uxor eius Orguen et filii eorum Gausfridus, Alanus, Willelmus, Rotbertus, Ricardus…"[383], suggests that he was born after the date of the document or must have been too young to have subscribed it. This hypothesis is also consistent with his death in [1135/36], when he would have been around 75 years old if he had been born towards the end of his father’s life. He succeeded his brother Geoffroy (or Geoffroy's son) [in 1093] as Comte de Penthièvre, and in his other lands in Brittany. He succeeded his brother Alain "the Black" as Lord of Richmond in Yorkshire in 1098. “Stephanus comes Britanniæ” donated property to Rumburgh priory, for the souls of “comitissa Haudewisa…filiorum meorum et filiarum…Galfridi…Alani, Henrici” by undated charter[384].

      ; Per Genealogics:
     "Eudes was born about 999, the youngest son of Geoffrey I, duc de Bretagne, and Hawise of Normandy. With his wife Agnès de Cornouaille, daughter of Alain Cagniart, comte de Cornouaille, and Judith de Nantes, he had about nine children, of whom Etienne would have progeny. He also had at least five illegitimate children.
     "In 1031 he was present, with his brother Alain III, duc de Bretagne, at a donation to the abbey of Mont-Saint-Michel, and the following year at the foundation of the abbey of Saint-Georges de Rennes of whom their sister Adèle became the first abbess.
     "After a dispute with his brother Alain III, arbitrated by their uncle Judicael, bishop of Vannes, in 1035 Alain formed a large apanage for him including the bishoprics of Saint Brieuc, Tréguier Saint Malo and Dol de Bretagne, and the counties and baronies of Penthièvre, Goëlo, Avaugour and Lamballe.
     "After the untimely death of his brother Alain III in 1040, Eudes took into custody his nephew Conon II and proclaimed himself co-regent of Brittany. The young duke was released by his followers in 1047.
     "Eudes defeated by William the Conqueror while fighting on the side of King Henri I of France at the Battle of Mortmemer in 1054, allied with Geoffrey III 'the Bearded', comte d'Anjou, against William, then the young duke of Normandy.
     "In 1056 Conon II became lord of Rennes and took Eudes prisoner. In 1062 a peace was concluded between Conon and Geoffrey Boterel, the eldest son of Eudes.
     "Years later, although very old, Eudes still participated in the 1075 uprisings against Hoel II of Brittany, the successor of Conon II, though he left the conduct of operations to his eldest son Geoffrey Boterel.
     "Eudes died on 7 January 1079, and was buried in the Cathedral of Saint Brieux in Brittany."3

     "Éon Ier de Penthièvre (souvent Eudes ou Eudon) (999 – 7 janvier 1079) fut comte de Penthièvre de 1035 à 1079. En 1040, il s'empare de son neveu Conan, successeur désigné à la tête du duché de Bretagne, puis après sa libération en 1047, il continue de régner sur une grande partie du territoire jusqu'à sa capture en 1056.
     "Eudes est le premier des Eudonides, prestigieux lignage des Comtes de Penthièvre, branche cadette des Comtes de Rennes et des Ducs de Bretagne1.
Historiographie
     "Du xvie au début du xxe siècle, les historiens, s'appuyant en partie sur la Chronique de Saint-Brieuc (datée d'une période comprise entre 1394 et 1416)2, ont écrit un récit de la vie d'Eudes dont la véracité est remise en cause par les historiens du xxe siècle et du xxie siècle. A l'époque où a été rédigée la Chronique de Saint-Brieuc, plusieurs documents ont en effet été inventés pour justifier la légitimité des Montfort face aux Eudonides3.
     "Bertrand d'Argentré4 en 1588, Augustin du Paz5 en 1619, Pierre Le Baud6 en 1638, puis Arthur de la Borderie en 18997 rapportent tous les mêmes faits :
** Eudes se serait révolté contre son frère Alain lorsqu'il reçut l'apanage de la Domnonée. Pour Eudes, le territoire de l'apanage était insuffisant, un conflit éclate entre les deux frères se terminant par le siège du château de Léhon et l'attaque d'Aleth par Alain. Judicaël, évêque de Vannes serait intervenu pour rétablir la paix entre les deux frères avec l'aide de Robert, Duc de Normandie. Eudes rend alors hommage à Alain.
** à la mort d'Alain III en 1040, Eudes aurait usurpé le pouvoir ducal et se serait emparé du fils d'Alain, le futur Conan II, contre l'avis de la duchesse Berthe de Blois et celui des grands du duché

     "En 1987, Noël-Yves Tonnerre8 considère que cette narration n'est pas crédible, Eudes et Alain auraient gouverné le duché en bonne entente, aucune source ne mentionne un éventuel conflit entre les deux frères à propos de l'apanage de la Domnonée. De plus, selon Stéphane Morin9, en 2009, Eudes aurait honoré honnêtement son tutorat envers Conan et lui aurait laissé la première place dans la signature des actes du Duché jusqu'en 1047.
     "Selon Noël-Yves Tonnerre, Conan serait devenu duc en 1047, et Eudes se serait replié dans son apanage à partir de 1047.
     "Plus récemment, Stéphane Morin, s'appuyant sur des écrits d'Orderic Vital et du pape Léon IX, estime que le pouvoir ducal est resté entre les mains d'Eudes jusqu'en 1057, Conan II le combattant de 1047 à 1057. En 1057, Eudes est capturé par Conan qui l'emmène à Chartres. Au-delà de cette date, Eudes semble s'être rapproché de Guillaume le Conquérant, ses fils participeront activement à la conquête de l'Angleterre.
Biographie
Origine

     "Eon ou Eudes est le fils cadet du duc de Bretagne Geoffroi Ier et d'Havoise de Normandie, fille du duc de Normandie Richard Ier. Son frère aîné est Alain III de Bretagne. Alain et Eudes sont élevés ensemble par leur mère, régente du duché après la mort de Geoffroi Ier en 1008. Richard II de Normandie est leur tuteur10.
     "Certains faits et textes pourraient laisser supposer qu'Eudes et Alain étaient jumeaux11.
Comte de Bretagne
     "De 1024 à 1030, Alain et Eudes semblent gouverner le duché ensemble, ils sont tous deux qualifiés de Brittanorum monarchi ou de Principes Brittaniae12.
     "En 1031, Eudes est présent avec son frère le duc Alain III de Bretagne, lors d'une donation faite à l'Abbaye du Mont-Saint-Michel et l'année suivante lors de la fondation de l'abbaye Saint-Georges de Rennes dont leur sœur Adèle devient la première abbesse13.
     "Vers 1035-1040, la protection de Guillaume, bâtard de Robert Ier de Normandie, est confiée aux deux frères1.
     "Après un conflit avec son frère et l'arbitrage de leur oncle Judicaël évêque de Vannes (version démentie par les études historiques récentes8,9), il obtient d'Alain III en 1035 l'apanage de la Domnonée constitué des évêchés de Saint Brieuc, Tréguier, Alet et Dol-de-Bretagne, et qui comprend les comtés et baronnies de Penthièvre, Goëlo et Lamballe.
     "Dans un article de 2017, André-Yves Bourgès s'interroge sur une éventuelle gémellité d'Alain et Eudes, l'attribution de l'apanage de la Domnonée à Eudes pourrait alors être envisagée comme un partage du royaume11.
     "La Domnonée pourrait correspondre à l'ancien pagus d'Alet. Ce pagus n'appartenait pas à la marche carolingienne de Bretagne et aurait donc pu avoir un mode d'organisation différent de celui du reste du Duché1. Il fut démembré successivement par la création de l'évêché de Dol au ixe siècle puis par celle des évêchés de Tréguier et de Saint-Brieuc au xe siècle (André-Yves Bourgés émet une hypothèse légèrement différente : les évêchés de Tréguier et de Saint-Brieuc auraient pu être érigés au 1er tiers du xie siècle dans le contexte de l'obtention de l'apanage par Eudes14,15).
     "Eudes devient alors Comte de Bretagne.
     "Après la disparition prématurée de son frère Alain III, en 1040 et le remariage de Berthe de Blois, épouse d'Alain III, il s'empare de la garde de son neveu Conan II de Bretagne et se proclame « comte de Bretagne ». Le jeune duc ne sera libéré par ses fidèles qu'en 1047.
     "L'historien Stéphane Morin analyse les relations entre Eudes, Alain III et Conan II d'une façon différente : Eudes aurait assuré un réel tutorat de Conan et aurait géré honnêtement le Duché après la mort de son frère, laissant toujours la première place au futur duc dans la signature des actes. La rupture entre Eudes et Conan II ne serait survenue qu'en 10471,16.
     "Vers 1045-1047, Berthe de Blois, mère de Conan, quitte la Bretagne pour se marier avec Hugues V, Comte du Mans17.
     "De 1040 à 1047, Eudes se rapproche du comte d'Anjou Geoffroy II à qui il donne sa fille Adèle en épouse1. Il rompt ainsi avec la tradition qui alliait les Comtes de Rennes aux Comtes de Blois. Allié du roi de France, le Comte d'Anjou était alors en conflit ouvert avec le Comte de Blois.
     "Après le départ de Conan, Eudes assure seul la direction du duché de 1047 à 1057. En 1049, il est qualifié de "Princes des Bretons" par le pape Léon IX qui lui reconnaît sa prééminence sur la noblesse bretonne1. Les deniers émis à cette époque par l'atelier monétaire de Rennes qualifie Eudes de dux Britanniae1,18.
     "En 1052, Eudes participe à une coalition réunissant le roi de France Henri Ier et le Comte d'Anjou pour combattre Guillaume de Normandie19. La coalition est battue à la bataille de Mortemer en 1054.
     "Lors d'une nouvelle offensive franco-angevine contre le duc de Normandie, Eudes est capturé puis emmené à Chartres par Conan II en 105720.
     "En 1062 la paix est conclue entre le duc et Geoffroy Boterel, fils aîné d'Éon qui continuait seul le combat.
     "Les enfants d'Eudes se rapprochent alors de Guillaume de Normandie et participeront avec beaucoup de succès à la conquête de l'Angleterre, cinq de ses fils y prennent part : Alain le Roux, Alain le Noir, Etienne, Brient, et Ribaud21.
     "Des années plus tard, bien que très âgé, Eudes participe encore en 1075 aux soulèvements des féodaux contre Hoël II de Bretagne, le successeur de Conan II il laisse toutefois la conduite des opérations à son fils aîné Geoffroy Boterel.
     "Il meurt le 7 janvier 1079 et est inhumé dans la cathédrale de Saint-Brieuc22
Union et postérité
     "De son union vers 1035 avec Orguen/Agnès, fille du comte de Cornouaille Alain Canhiart, il a neuf enfants? 23
** Adèle (vers 1035- † après 1056/1057) ;
** Geoffroy Ier de Penthièvre, dit Boterel? († 1093) ;
** Brian († 1084), participe à la conquête de l'Angleterre et reçoit l'Honneur de Richmond, mort sans postérité?;
** Alain le Roux († 1093), qui tient l'honneur de Richmond de 1070 à 1093, sans postérité?;
** Guillaume † après 1055/1057 ;
** Robert † après 1055/1057 ;
** Richard † après 1056/1057 ;

** Étienne († 1137), comte de Guingamp de Trégor et seigneur de Goëlo, puis comte de Penthièvre, et qui tient l'Honneur de Richmond à partir de 1093?.

     "Il avait par ailleurs au moins cinq enfants illégitimes24 :

     "Odo of Rennes (Medieval Breton: Eudon Pentevr, Modern Breton: Eozen Penteur, Latin: Eudo, French: Eudes/Éon de Penthièvre) at an unknown age (999–1079), Count of Penthièvre, was the youngest of the three sons of Duke Geoffrey I of Brittany and Hawise of Normandy, daughter of Richard I of Normandy. Eozen married Agnes of Cornouaille (Orguen Kernev), the daughter of Alan Canhiart, Count of Cornouaille and sister of Hoel II, Duke of Brittany who was married in 1066 to Eozen's niece Hawise, Duchess of Brittany.
Role in Governance of Brittany
     "When Eozen's father Duke[b] Geoffrey I died on 20 November 1008, both Eozen and his older brother Alan were minors.
     "Duke Geoffrey had initiated a dynastic double marriage with Richard II, Duke of Normandy by marrying Hawise of Normandy, one of Richard's sisters, in 996; this was followed by the marriage of Geoffrey's sister Judith of Brittany to Richard around the year 1000. Alan and Eozen were thus double-first cousins of Duke Richard II's children, including Richard III, Duke of Normandy and Robert I, Duke of Normandy (William the Conqueror's father), nephews of Emma of Normandy, and first cousins of Emma's children Edward the Confessor, Harthacnut, Goda of England, Gunhilda of Denmark and Alfred Aetheling.
     "At Geoffrey's death, Alan became de jure Duke, as Alan III, Duke of Brittany,[c] Hawise took on the role of Regent, and Richard asserted the role of Guardian of Brittany, an arrangement reciprocated on the death of Robert I, Duke of Normandy in 1035.
     "Also in 1035, after a dispute between Eozen and Duke Alan III, their uncle Judicaël Bishop of Vannes arbitrated, and Alan III gave Eozen the bishoprics of Saint-Brieuc, Saint-Malo, Tréguier and Dol-de-Bretagne, as well as the counties and baronies of Penthièvre, Goëlo, Avaugour and Lamballe. Eozen placed his capital at Lamballe, where he began issuing coins in his own name.
     "Following the death of his brother Duke Alan III in 1040, Eozen ruled as regent of Brittany in the name of his nephew Conan II, holding Conan in custody. Conan was freed by his supporters in 1047. Eozen's regency should have ended when Conan reached his majority (circa 1054), but Eozen refused to relinquish control of the Duchy.
     "In 1054 Geoffrey, Viscount of Mayenne in Maine, affronted by William of Normandy's new fortifications at Ambrieres, "appealed to Geoffrey, Count of Anjou" who "called to his assistance Guy-William of Aquitaine and Count Eudo of Brittany"[1]
     "In a charter dated to 1056/1060, Eozen ("Eudo") granted land "in pago Belvacensi" (Beauvais, Picardy) to the Abbey of Angers Saint-Aubin (q.v. Albinus of Angers). Witnesses included his wife Orguen and their sons Gausfridus, Alanus Rufus, Willelmus, Rotbertus and Ricardus (Geoffrey, Alan Rufus, William, Robert and Richard).
     "By 1056 Conan gained the upper hand in Brittany, and in 1057 he captured his uncle Eozen and chained him in a prison cell. Eozen's eldest son Geoffrey Boterel continued to fight.
     "In 1062, peace was concluded between Conan and Geoffrey. Eozen, who was now free, continued the fight alone.
     "In histories favourable to the house of Penthièvre, Eozen is shown as effectively ruling Brittany between 1040 and 1062. In other histories his rule is shown as ending with his capture in 1057.
     "Conan was a legitimate contender for the title of Duke of Normandy, so he became a serious rival to Duke William.
     "In 1064, Eozen's liegeman Rivallon I of Dol invited Duke William to join him against Conan, thus initiating the Breton-Norman War of 1064-1065 in which Normandy, Anjou, Dol de Bretagne and the captive Harold Godwinson combined against Conan II, as depicted in three panels of the Bayeux Tapestry. Historians differ on whether William or Conan should be considered the victor in this conflict.
Involvement in the Preparations for the Norman Conquest of England
     "Eozen provided, trained and equipped 5000 Breton soldiers for William the Conqueror's army. Of these, 4000 were professionals, comprising light cavalry, heavy cavalry, archers, crossbowmen and axemen; he also trained 1000 levied (conscripted) spearmen. Eozen put these troops on 100 ships under the command of his sons Count Alan Rufus and Count Brian, and they sailed from Brittany to join the Norman forces gathering at Barfleur then on to William's staging point at Saint-Valery-sur-Somme, in readiness to cross the Channel.
Rebellion against Hoel II of Brittany
     "Despite his advanced years, Eozen was involved in the failed 1075/1076 rebellion against Hoel II, Duke of Brittany, by Geoffrey Grenonat of Rennes and Ralph de Gael (fresh from his 1075 rebellion against King William). Hoel II was supported by William the Conqueror, briefly placing Eozen and William on opposing sides once again, a situation that was soon resolved when, to William's disappointment, Hoel came to terms with the rebels.
Death
     "On 7 January 1079, at about 80 years of age, Eozen died in Cesson-Sévigné, an eastern suburb of Rennes. He was buried in Saint-Brieuc Cathedral.
     "In his memory, “Comes Alanus Rufus” (Count Alan Rufus), his second son, donated property to Swavesey Abbey in Cambridgeshire, for the soul of “patris sui Eudonis comitis” (his father Count Eozen), by an undated charter witnessed by “…Ribaldus et Bardulfus fratres comitis…” (Ribald and Bardulf, brothers of Count Alan).
Family
     "Thomas Forester’s 1854 translation of volume 2 of Orderic Vitalis’s The Ecclesiastical History of England and Normandy, book 5, chapter 9, section 43 and page 164, last paragraph, states concerning Eozen's sons:
“God also gave him seven sons, who became remarkable for the singular and changeable events of their lives. The studious might compose a long and pleasing history, from true accounts of their various fortunes.”

     "Eozen's children with Agnes include:
** Adèle (born c. 1035, died after 1056/1057).[2]
** Geoffrey Boterel I, count of Penthièvre (d. 24 August 1093).
** Brian - Earl of Cornwall (d. after 1084) (possibly illegitimate). an unknown date
** Alan Rufus (Latin; alternatively Alain Le Roux in French, or Alan Ar Rouz in Breton, called Count Alan in the Domesday Book, his name means "Red Deer" or "Hart") (d. between 1093 and 1098). He promoted trade at Boston, Lincolnshire, built St Mary's Abbey, York, Richmond Castle and the first castle at Middleham, and was effectively the first Earl of Richmond, though the majority of his manors were in East Anglia. Richmondshire in North Yorkshire is described in the Domesday Book as "Terra Alani Comitis" ("The Land of Count Alan") in "Eborakscire" (Yorkshire).[6] In the Rebellion of 1088, he was the first of the great magnates to support William II of England against Odo, Earl of Kent and his allies.
** Alan the Black (alternatively Alain Niger, or Alan Ar Du in Breton, his name means "Black Deer") (d. between 1094 and 1098), inherited from Alan Rufus.[e]
** Stephen, Count of Tréguier married Havise of Guingamp - succeeded Alan Rufus and Alan the Black as de facto Earl of Richmond. Stephen and Havise had a number of legitimate children and grandchildren, all of whom are ancestors of the current British Royal Family.
** Robert, a priest in Yorkshire (d. after 1083).
** Richard, a canon of Bayeux at the time when Thomas of Bayeux, Thomas's brother Samson and William de Saint-Calais were also canons there.
** Guillaume or William, who came to Switzerland, entering the service of the Holy Roman Emperor; he was the suppressor of the revolt of Agaunum (today Saint-Maurice-en-Valais), and received a castle in his honour.
** An unnamed daughter, who married Enisandus Musardus de Pleveno who was the Lord of Cheveley in Cambridgeshire (under Alan Rufus as tenant-in-chief) and first Constable of Richmond Castle and lord of some twenty manors in Richmondshire. Cheveley was recorded until 1457 as remaining under the overlordship of the Honour of Richmond.[7]

     "Sons of Eozen who were probably illegitimate include:
** Ribald, who received the Lordship of Middleham from Alan Rufus.[f]
** Bardolf, who moved to England where he held the lordship of Ravensworth and became the ancestor of the Fitzhugh family.
** Bodin, Lord of Bedale and brother of Bardolf.

(Possibly) Derrien, Lord of La Roche-Derrien in Brittany.
     "At least two of Eozen's sons (Alan Rufus and Brian) were early participants in the Norman conquest of England.[8]
     "Eozen's descendants formed the junior branch of the Breton ducal family, which gained control of the duchy in 1156 under Conan IV of Brittany.

Notes
a. Odo in French is Eudes.
b. The title of Duke of Brittany had not yet been recognized by the King of France, although it was in use since Alan II, Duke of Brittany. Since Brittany was not in fact under the French Crown until the late 15th century, and not incorporated into the French State until the French Revolution, what the King of France thought is a moot point.
c. In some histories Eozen is shown co-Duke with his brother Alan, followed by a period where Alan ruled as Duke of Brittany alone. Eozen's position as co-Duke is unlikely and remains an historical uncertainty in search of documented proof. In any event Alan would go on to shed the control of Normandy circa 1026, and from this date it is clear there was no ruling role for Eozen until Alan died.
d. The detailed documented histories are lacking and limited. He is presumed to have been illegitimate, though his title of Count suggests that he was a legitimate son, as does the genealogy in Gale's edition of the Registry of the Honour of Richmond which gives his wife's name as Imogen. Brian participated in the conquest of England. The website of Charles Cawley reports that Brian (French: Brien; Latin: Briennius) defeated a second raid in the southwest of England, launched from Ireland by Harold's sons in 1069. Brian's forces then went north to counter the rebellion by Eadric the Wild, as William the Conqueror's army travelled west; the two armies joined and won the Battle of Stafford.[3] For a time, Brian held the Honour of Brittany, including 227 manors in Cornwall and a number in eastern England. However, he became an invalid and subsequently relinquished all his estates in south-west England (William then gave them to his own half-brother Robert, Count of Mortain), and retired to Brittany to be with his bride. He is recorded as a witness to two documents issued by Geoffrey I Boterel in 1084. He is believed to have died without offspring,[4] however Domesday Book[5] entries for the year 1086 refer to "Ralph son of Brian" (http://domesdaymap.co.uk/name/418750/ralph-son-of-brian/) as holding seven properties in Essex and Suffolk, some under the Bishop of London St Paul, the others under Ranulf (Ranulph) Peverel (see William Peverel); to "William son of Brian" (http://domesdaymap.co.uk/name/597200/william-son-of-brian/) as holding land under the Bishop of London St Paul at Great and Little Totham in the Hundred of Thurstable in Essex; to "Everard son of Brian" (http://domesdaymap.co.uk/name/196550/everard-son-of-brian/), whose name is the first listed for the Hundred of Cheveley, as holding land, under Aubrey de Vere I in Ashley and in Saxon [Street], either side of Cheveley; and to "Brian's wife" (http://domesdaymap.co.uk/name/118700/brians-wife/) as holding property under the Bishop of London St Paul in Stepney in the Hundred of Ossulstone in Middlesex. The timing of the lives of Alan Rufus and Stephen of Tréguier suggests that Brian did not hold Richmond. It is reported elsewhere that he was an Earl of Cornwall but resigned the title and returned to Brittany; Brian's lands in England were then granted by King William I to the latter's half-brother Robert, Count of Mortain. During the Anarchy, Alan the Black II claimed Cornwall on the basis of his uncle Brian having held it; a claim that was accepted by King Stephen.
e. Not to be confused with Alan the Black II, the son of Stephen, Count of Tréguier, who also would inherit the Earldom, after Stephen. There is little reliable written documentation of his life save for a record of his death - possibly in the same year as his brother Alan Rufus, as he is believed to have held the Earldom for a very brief period of time before it passed to Stephen.
f. Middleham later passed by marriage and consequent female descent to the House of Neville.

     "EUDES de Bretagne, son of GEOFFROY I Duke of Brittany & his wife Havise de Normandie (-Cesson 1079, bur Saint-Brieuc). Guillaume of Jumièges names “Emma...secunda Hadvis...tertia Mathildis” as the three daughters of Richard and his wife “Gunnor ex nobilissima Danorum prosapia ortam”, adding that Havise married “Goiffredo Britannorum comiti” by whom she had “Alanum et Eudonem duces”[306]. A charter dated 1008 records that, after the death of "Gaufrido comite Britanniæ", "filii eius Alanus et Eudo cum matre eorum Hadeguisia" restored the abbey of Saint-Méen[307]. "Alanus et Egio Britannorum monarchi" founded the priory of Livré "in pago Redonensi" by charter dated to [1013/22], signed by "…Aduise matre eorum comitum, Rivalloni vicarii, Triscanni…"[308]. A charter dated 1026 recalls that "Gaufridus, Conani Curvi filius" was killed "apud Concuruz prelium", recalling that "quo defuncto, Alanus filius eius…renum patris suscipiens", witnessed by "Alanus comes…Heudo frater eius"[309]. He appears to have ruled Brittany jointly with his brother until the death of their mother in 1034. Following disputes with his brother, a division of territories was agreed, Eudes taking the dioceses of Dol, Saint Malo, Saint Brieuc and Tréguier, at which time he can be said to have become Comte de Penthièvre. "Manigenius…miles" founded the priory of Saint-Cyr-lès-Rennes and donated it to Tours Saint-Julien by charter dated 23 May 1037, subscribed by "Alanus dux…Eudonis fratris Alani ducis Britannorum, Gotzelini vicecomitis, Rualentis domini Doli…"[310]. After the death of his brother in 1040, Eudes seized Brittany and excluded his nephew, succeeding as EUDES I Duke of Brittany. According to Orderic Vitalis, Eudes ruled the country "freely without acknowledging any lord for 15 years"[311]. However, his nephew retaliated, captured Eudes and imprisoned him in chains[312]. "Comes Eudo et nepos eius Gaufridus, Robertus vicecomes et frater eius Eudo…Guichomarus filius Alani vicecomitis…" witnessed a charter dated to 1050 relating to the abbey of Saint-Georges de Rennes[313]. "Comes Eudo, uxor eius Orguen et filii eorum Gausfridus, Alanus, Willelmus, Rotbertus, Ricardus…" witnessed the charter dated to [1056/60] records the history of the acquisition by Angers Saint-Aubin of property "in pago Belvacensi", finally donated by "comiti Britannie Eudoni"[314].

; Per Genealogics:
     "Alain was from a family of viscounts and counts who imposed their hereditary authority on Cornouaille in Brittany from the mid-10th century. He was the son of Benoit de Cornouaille, comte de Cornouaille, who was elected to the episcopal see of Quimperlé in Brittany after 990 in unknown circumstances, and the performed both functions. Alain's nickname 'Cagniart' derived from the old Breton 'Kann' (Combat), and was probably related to his fighting spirit. His mother Guigoëdon or Guiguoedon was the daughter of Orscand 'le Grand', bishop of Vannes, from the family of Alain I 'le Grand', duc de Bretagne.
     "Alain became count of Cornouaille in 1020 by waiver of his father, who also resigned from his bishopric after 1022 in favour of his second son Orscand. Relations between the two brothers and their wives were sometimes tense, but Alain always kept the loyalty of his brother the bishop.
     "He quarrelled with Alain III, duc de Bretagne, who accused him of aiding rebels, and the duke confiscated land belonging to Alain Cagniart including the island of Guadet (Belle-île-en-Mer). Alain Cagniart soon returned to the duke's good graces after facilitating the marriage of his lord to Berthe de Blois, the daughter of Eudes II, comte de Blois, Chartres, Troyes et Champagne, and he recovered the island of Guadet, which had belonged to his mother's dowry.
     "About 1026 Alain married Judith de Nantes, daughter of Judicael, comte de Nantes, and his wife Melisende. Among other gifts he gave her five hamlets in Quistillic and half of the church of Cluthgual with its tithe, the crypt and all his rights. They had six children of whom Hoel V and Agnès would have progeny.
     "The potential growth of Alain's power stemming from his marriage attracted the attention of Alain III, duc de Bretagne. A ducal army entered Cornouaille but was repelled in 1031 near Locronan through the intervention of St. Ronan. After a second reconciliation with Alain III, Alain Cagniart faced the rebellion of his own vassals in Léon, headed by Guihomar, vicomte de Léon, and Morvan, vicomte de Faou. Alain quickly put down the revolt.
     "Following his recovery from a serious illness, in 1029 Alain founded the abbey of Sainte-Croix de Quimperlé in Brittany together with his brother Bishop Orscand, and he entrusted its direction to Abbot (later Saint) Gurloës.
     "In 1050 after the death of his wife's nephew Mathias I, comte de Nantes, Alain asserted the rights of his wife and governed the county of Nantes on behalf of their son and heir Hoel.
     "Alain died in 1058, and was buried at the abbey of Sainte-Croix de Quimperlé which he had founded."6

; Per Wikipedia:
     "Alain Canhiart (died 1058) was the Count of Cornouaille from 1020-1058. He was the son of Benoît de Cornouaille and the father of Hoel II, Duke of Brittany. His family name, Canhiart, is understood to be derived from the old Breton Kann Yac'h at an unknown age and was translated into the Latin texts of his era as Bellator fortis.
Life
     "According to Paul Le Baud, Alain was a descendant of Rivallon Mur Marzou and therefore was a male line descendant of the early Kings of Brittany. [1] As Count of Cornouaille he inherited his regnal rights from the family that appears to have ruled the Cornouaille region of Brittany from about the 10th century [b] His father Benoît (or Benedic) died between 1008 and 1029. He was the Count-Bishop of Cornouaille; he had been elected Bishop of Quimper circa 990 and exercised the offices jointly but kept them separated. [c] His mother was Guigoëdon (or Guiguoedon); she was the daughter of Orscand le Grand, the Bishop of Vannes an unknown date She was a member of the family of Alan I, King of Brittany. [e]
     "Alain became Count of Cornouaille circa 1020 when his father renounced this title. Alain's brother Orscand succeeded their father as Bishop of Cornouaille.
     "At one point Alain supported rebels who opposed Alan III, Duke of Brittany. Alan III prevailed and punished Count Alain by confiscating his territories, in particular Belle-Île-en-Mer. Alain returned to the Duke's good graces by facilitating his marriage to Berthe of Blois, the daughter of Count Odo; the duke allowed Alain to recover the property that had been seized that belonged to the dowry of Alain's mother.
     "Alain married Judith of Nantes and through her gained a claim on the County of Nantes. In part as a result of his rising power, he was attacked by Alan III but was able to push back the Duke's army in 1031 in a battle near Locronan. In this battle Alain was assisted by Saint Ronan. Alan III and Alain were again reconciled.
     "After this second battle with the Duke of Brittany, Alain faced difficulties with his vassals in the Viscounty of Leon, most notably Guyomarch I. Guyomarch I allied with Morvan, Viscount of Faou, to oppose Alain. Alain was successful in putting down these revolts.
     "Around 1029, after a serious illness, Alain founded the Abbey of Sainte-Croix of Quimperlé with the assistance of his brother Orscand, the Bishop. He included Belle-Île in his donation to the Abbey.
     "In 1050, at the death of his wife's nephew, Mathias I of Nantes, Alain confirmed her inheritance and his rights to rule Nantes as regent for his son Hoel, the eventual Count of Nantes.
Family
     "Around 1026, Alain married Judith of Nantes, the daughter of Judicaël of Nantes, who became the heir to the County of Nantes after the death of her nephew, Matthew, in 1050. As was the custom of the period, under the dowry arrangements Alain obtained five villages in Quistillic and half of the church of Cluthgual with the sepulcher and all appertaining rights. [2] [f]
     "Alain and Judith had six children
** Hoel II- Count of Nantes, Count of Rennes, and eventually Duke of Brittany (jure uxoris)
** Guérech (Quiriac) (1030-1079) - elected Bishop of Nantes in 1059, consecrated 7 January 1061
** Budic - died 1091
** Hodiern - Abbess of Locmaria de Quimper
** Benoît - Abbot of the Abbey of Sainte-Croix de Quimperlé in 1066, elected Bishop of Nantes in 1079, consecrated in 1081; retired in 1114 and murdered in 1115
99 Orguen, or Agnes - wife of Odo I of Penthievre.
Death and succession
     "Alain died in 1058. He was buried at Quimperle. His tomb was destroyed during the French Revolution. [g] He was succeeded as Count of Cornouaille by his son Hoel.
Notes
a. translated from breton, vigorous combatant
b. This Cornouaille region of Brittany is geographically distinct from the Cornwall region of England.
c. Benoît held the joint title Count-Bishop, or Lord-Bishop during the era when Bishops were also lords and before the Roman Catholic church forced the separation of secular from ecclesiastical titles, rights and powers.
d. In this era the Roman Catholic church had not yet imposed mandatory celibacy on its prelates, and bishops and priests alike frequently were married and had issue.
e. Orscand had de facto control of the Vannetais region of Brittany at the end of the 10th century.
f. Judith inherited Nantes from her nephew Mathias Ier de Nantes.
g. Jacques Cambry states that his tomb contained an effigy along the traditions of the period representing Alain with a short sword, a shield and his arms.

; Per Wikipedia (Fr.):
     "Alain Canhiart, (né vers 1000 - † 1058), fils de Benoît de Cornouaille et père d'Hoël II, fut comte de Cornouaille de 1020 à 1058. Son surnom « Canhiart » issu du vieux breton Kann Yac'h (Combattant plein de vigueur, sain) est traduit dans les documents en latin par « Bellator fortis » il est vraisemblablement lié à son ardeur au combat1.
Origine et famille
     "Selon Pierre Le Baud Alain Canhiart est un descendant de « Rivallon Mur Marzou » et il appartient donc à la « ligne masculine des rois de Bretagne » 2.
     "Alain Canhiart est plus certainement issu de la lignée de vicomtes puis comtes qui depuis le milieu du xe siècle ont imposé leur pouvoir héréditaire sur la Cornouaille. Il est le fils de Benoît ou Benedic († entre 1008 et 1019), comte et évêque de Cornouaille, puisqu'il a été élu au siège épiscopal de Quimper après 990 dans des circonstances inconnues et qu'il exerce les deux fonctions de Comte et d’Évêque3. Sa mère Guigoëdon ou Guiguoedon est la fille d’Orscand le Grand évêque de Vannes4 qui appartient à la famille du roi Alain de Bretagne dont Alain Canhiart porte d’ailleurs le nom qui n’appartient pas au stock onomastique de la famille de Cornouaille5.
Comte de Cornouaille
     "Alain accède au comté vers 1020 par renonciation de son père qui se démettra peu après en 1022 de son évêché en faveur de son second fils Orscand. Les relations entre les deux frères et leurs épouses respectives seront parfois tendues mais Alain gardera toujours la prééminence sur son frère l’évêque.
     "Une brouille l’oppose à son suzerain Alain III de Bretagne qui reproche au comte d’avoir soutenu des rebelles et le duc confisque des territoires appartenant à Alain dont l’île de Guadel (Belle-Île-en-Mer). Alain Canhiart rentre en grâce rapidement après avoir facilité le mariage de son suzerain en enlevant, selon la tradition, pour son compte Berthe de Blois, la fille du comte Eudes il recouvre l’île confisquée précédemment qui « avait appartenu à la dot de sa mère Guinoedon »6.
     "Alain Canhiart épouse vers 1026 Judith fille de Judicaël de Nantes et héritière de ce comté. Entre autres dons de mariage il lui cède, les noces ayant été célébrées suivant la coutume, cinq hameaux en Quistillic et la moitié de l'église de Cluthgual, avec la dîme, la sépulture et tous ses droits7
     "L'accroissement potentiel de sa puissance lié à son union semble avoir attiré l’attention du duc Alain III de Bretagne Une armée ducale entre en Cornouaille mais elle est repoussée en 1031 près de Locronan grâce à l’intervention de Saint Ronan selon la tradition. Après une seconde réconciliation avec Alain III de Bretagne Alain Canhiart doit faire face à l’indiscipline de ses propres vassaux les Léonais avec à leur tête Guyomarch Ier de Léon vicomte de Léon qui s’est soulevé avec « des tyrans » de sa région puis Morvan vicomte du Faou. Le comte s’impose rapidement aux révoltés.
     "À la suite sa guérison d’une grave maladie, Alain Canhiart fonde selon la tradition vers 1029 l’Abbaye Sainte-Croix de Quimperlé avec à ses côtés son frère l’évêque Orscand et il en confie la direction à Gurloës. Il attribue à sa fondation Belle-Île8
     "En 1050 après la mort de Mathias Ier de Nantes, Alain Canhiart fait valoir les droits de son épouse contre Conan II de Bretagne et prend en charge en 1054 le comté de Nantes pour le compte de son fils et héritier Hoël.
     "Le comte meurt en 1058 et il est inhumé à l'abbaye Sainte-Croix de Quimperlé selon son obituaire. Jacques Cambry, dans son catalogue des objets échappés au vandalisme dans le Finistère, nous apprend que son tombeau fut détruit pendant la Révolution. Il y était représenté en costume de son temps, avec sa courte épée, son bouclier, ses armes.
Union et descendance
     "Vers 1026, il épouse Judith, héritière du comté de Nantes, qui revient à celle-ci à la mort de son neveu, le comte Mathias Ier de Nantes.
     "Le couple a au moins six enfants dont quatre garçons 9:
1. Hoël, comte de Nantes, de Cornouaille, duc de Bretagne
2. Guérech (ou Quiriac) (1030 - 1078), évêque élu de Nantes en 1059, consacré le 7 janvier 1061 ;
3. Budic, mort en 1091 ;
4. Hodiern, abbesse de Locmaria de Quimper ;
5. Benoît, abbé de l'Abbaye Sainte-Croix de Quimperlé en 1066, évêque élu de Nantes en 1079, consacré en 1081, se retire en 1114 et meurt en 1115 ;
6. Orguen/Agnès, épouse d'Éon Ier de Penthièvre.

; Per Med Lands:
     "WILLIAM Comyn (-1233[251]). The proofs relating to the claim to the Scottish throne in 1291 made by "dñi Johannis Comyn" name "Hextilde" as daughter and heiress of "Gothrik", son of "Dovenald filius Duncani filii Erici", and "Willelmo" as her son and heir[252]. He expanded the family's landed interests with acquisitions around Glasgow. The 1167/68 Pipe Roll records "Williuam Cumin" in “Hemelhampsteda [under Berchamsteda]”[253]. "…Willelmo Cumyn…" subscribed the undated charter under which "Comes David frater regis Scottorum" founded Lindores Abbey[254]. "…Willelmo Cuming…" subscribed the charter dated 1 Jul (no year) under which William King of Scotland donated "totam terram de Strathylaf" to Kinloss[255]. "…Com. Patricio, Will Cumin, Waltero de Lindes, Rog fil Henr……" witnessed the undated charter under which "David marescall dñi regis Scott" donated "piscarias meas de Thveda" to Melrose abbey[256]. The names of the witnesses suggest that the document should be dated to the late 12th century. He was appointed Sheriff of Forfar and in [1205] Justiciar of Scotia[257]. "Umfridus de Berkel" donated "terram de Balfeth" to Aberbrothoc by undated charter witnessed by "…Will Cumyn…Ric fil Will Cumyn…"[258]. He succeeded as Earl of Buchan, de iure uxoris. "Willelmus Cumin comes de Buchan" donated revenue from property in "Inuermer" to St Andrew’s priory, with the consent of "Margerie uxoris nostre", by undated charter[259]. "Wills Cumyn comes et Margar sponsa sua comitissa de Buchan" donated "ecclesiam de Buthelny" to Aberbrothoc by undated charter[260]. "…Willelmo Cumyn comite de Buchan justiciar Scotie…Waltero Cumin…" subscribed the charter dated 12 Feb 1236 under which Alexander II King of Scotland confirmed donations to Kinloss[261]. The Liber Pluscardensis records the death in 1233 of "Willelmus Cumyn comes de Buchane" who founded "ecclesiam de Deer"[262]. The Liber Vitæ of Durham lists (in order) "Hextild, Willelmus, Odenellus, Simon, Ricardus Cumin…"[263].
     "m firstly (1200 or after) SARAH, daughter and co-heiress of ROBERT FitzHugh [Giffard] & his wife ---. "Willelmus Cumin" paid a fine for the marriage of "juniore filia Rob fil Hug" and part of her inheritance in Northamptonshire, dated 1200[264]. The primary source which confirms her name has not yet been identified.
     "m secondly (1210 or before) [as her second husband,] MARGARET Ctss of Buchan, daughter of FERGUS Earl of Buchan & his wife --- (-[8 Apr 1242/1244]). "Margareta comitissa de Buchan…in…viduitatis mee" donated property to Aberbrothoc, as "comes Fergus pater meus" had done, by undated charter[265]. The Complete Peerage dates this charter to "before 1199" and uses this as the basis for her supposed first marriage[266]. "Wills Cumyn comes et Margar sponsa sua comitissa de Buchan" donated "ecclesiam de Buthelny" to Aberbrothoc by undated charter[267]. "Willelmus Cumin comes de Buchan" donated revenue from property in "Inuermer" to St Andrew’s priory, with the consent of "Margerie uxoris nostre", by undated charter[268]. "Margeria comitissa de Buchan" donated revenue from property in "Inuermer" to St Andrew’s priory by undated charter, presumably dated to after her husband’s death as he is not named in the document, witnessed by "…Roberto Cumyn…"[269]."

; Per Genealogics:
     “Richard Comyn was probably born between 1115 and 1123, the son of William Comyn and an unnamed mother. In 1144 his father gave him Northallerton Castle, which he had built a few years earlier. Shortly after he received the castle and honour of Richmond as part of his uncle's settlement to renounce the Durham bishopric. In 1145 Richard married Hextilda of Tynedale, the daughter of Uchtred of Tynedale and his wife Bethóc ingen Domnaill Bain, the daughter of Domnall Bán mac Donnchada, Donald III Bane, king of Scots. They had four sons and three daughters, of whom William and Idonea would have progeny.
     “In Scotland Richard acquired the position of Justiciar of Lothian; in that capacity he witnessed six charters for King Malcolm IV 'the Maiden', and 33 charters for his successor King William 'the Lion'. He was captured with King William in 1174 and was a hostage for him in the Treaty of Falaise. He gave, with Hextilda's consent, lands to the monks at Hexham, Kelso and Holyrood.
     “Richard died between 1179 and 1182. Hextilda was remarried to Malcolm, 2nd earl of Atholl. They did not have progeny, though he had at least four sons by his unnamed first wife.
     “Richard's daughters were witnesses to a donation made by their stepfather Malcolm and their mother Hextilda to the Church of St. Cuthbert in Durham.”.2

; This is the same person as ”Richard Comyn” at Wikipedia.9

; Per Med Lands:
     "RICHARD Comyn, son of --- Cumin [Comyn] (-[1179]). The Continuatio of Simeon of Durham records that "Ricardus nepos Willelmi Cumin frater illius Willelmi defuncti" was granted the castle of Allerton in 1144 as part of the arrangements which led to his uncle withdrawing his claims to the bishopric of Durham[231]. He was granted land in Tynedale, in south-west Northumberland, on his marriage, and acquired land in Peeblesshire and Roxburghshire. “R. Cumin” donated property to Hexham Priory, with the consent of “uxoris meæ Hextildis”, by undated charter which names “fratrem meum Walterum”[232]. "Ric Cymyn" donated "ecclesiam de Lyntunruderie" to Kelso monastery, for the souls of "Henrici comitis dni mei et…Johis filii mei quorum corpa apud eos tumulant", by charter dated to [1160], witnessed by "Hextild sponsa mea, Od filio meo…"[233]. "Ricardus Cumin" donated [Slapfeld] to Holyrood Abbey, with the consent of "Hestild uxoris mee et heredum meorum", by charter dated to [1166] witnessed by "…Odinello et Simone filiis meis…"[234]. William "the Lion" King of Scotland appointed him Justiciar of Scotland before 1173. He was one of the hostages for the performance of the Treaty of Falaise in Dec 1174[235]. "…David Olifard, Philippo de Valoniis camerario, Ricardo Cumyn" witnessed the undated charter under which William King of Scotland granted "unum plenarium tofftum" to Scone Abbey over its territories[236].
     "m ([1144/50]) as her first husband, HEXTILDA of Tynedale, daughter of [UHTRED Lord of Tynedale & his wife Bethoc of Scotland]. The proofs relating to the claim to the Scottish throne in 1291 made by "dñi Johannis Comyn" name "Hextilde" as daughter and heiress of "Gothrik", son of "Dovenald filius Duncani filii Erici", and "Willelmo" as her son and heir[237]. However, in the Great Roll, John Comyn traced his descent from Bethoc, daughter and heiress of Donald[238]. This conflict in the claimant’s genealogy is suspicious. In any case, the chronology for Hextilda’s supposed descent from King Donald Bane is stretched to the limit of credibility. It is suggested that the supposed parentage of Hextilda should be treated with caution. “R. Cumin” donated property to Hexham Priory, with the consent of “uxoris meæ Hextildis”, by undated charter which names “fratrem meum Walterum”[239]. "Ric Cymyn" donated "ecclesiam de Lyntunruderie" to Kelso monastery, for the souls of "Henrici comitis dni mei et…Johis filii mei quorum corpa apud eos tumulant", by charter dated to [1160], witnessed by "Hextild sponsa mea, Od filio meo…"[240]. "Ricardus Cumin" donated [Slapfeld] to Holyrood Abbey, with the consent of "Hestild uxoris mee et heredum meorum", by charter dated to [1166] witnessed by "…Odinello et Simone filiis meis…"[241]. Hextilda married secondly (after 1179), as his second wife, her second cousin, Malcolm Earl of Atholl. Her second marriage is confirmed by the undated charter under which “Hextildis comitissa de Eththetela” donated property to Rievall Abbey, for the soul of “domini mei Richardi Cumin”[242]. "Malcolmus comes de Athoil" donated "ecclesiam de Dul" to St Andrew’s priory by undated charter witnessed by "Dunecano comite de Fif, Hextilda comitissa sponsa mea…Henrico et Dunecano filiis meis…"[243]. The Liber Vitæ of Durham lists (in order) "Hextild, Willelmus, Odenellus, Simon, Ricardus Cumin…", and in a later passage "Malcolmus filius Mal. et comes Athodlie, Hextilda filia Ucthredi uxor eius…"[244]."

     "bef 1153 Richard married Hextilda of Tynedale.[34]”.9

; Per Med Lands:
     "RICHARD Comyn, son of --- Cumin [Comyn] (-[1179]). The Continuatio of Simeon of Durham records that "Ricardus nepos Willelmi Cumin frater illius Willelmi defuncti" was granted the castle of Allerton in 1144 as part of the arrangements which led to his uncle withdrawing his claims to the bishopric of Durham[231]. He was granted land in Tynedale, in south-west Northumberland, on his marriage, and acquired land in Peeblesshire and Roxburghshire. “R. Cumin” donated property to Hexham Priory, with the consent of “uxoris meæ Hextildis”, by undated charter which names “fratrem meum Walterum”[232]. "Ric Cymyn" donated "ecclesiam de Lyntunruderie" to Kelso monastery, for the souls of "Henrici comitis dni mei et…Johis filii mei quorum corpa apud eos tumulant", by charter dated to [1160], witnessed by "Hextild sponsa mea, Od filio meo…"[233]. "Ricardus Cumin" donated [Slapfeld] to Holyrood Abbey, with the consent of "Hestild uxoris mee et heredum meorum", by charter dated to [1166] witnessed by "…Odinello et Simone filiis meis…"[234]. William "the Lion" King of Scotland appointed him Justiciar of Scotland before 1173. He was one of the hostages for the performance of the Treaty of Falaise in Dec 1174[235]. "…David Olifard, Philippo de Valoniis camerario, Ricardo Cumyn" witnessed the undated charter under which William King of Scotland granted "unum plenarium tofftum" to Scone Abbey over its territories[236].
     "m ([1144/50]) as her first husband, HEXTILDA of Tynedale, daughter of [UHTRED Lord of Tynedale & his wife Bethoc of Scotland]. The proofs relating to the claim to the Scottish throne in 1291 made by "dñi Johannis Comyn" name "Hextilde" as daughter and heiress of "Gothrik", son of "Dovenald filius Duncani filii Erici", and "Willelmo" as her son and heir[237]. However, in the Great Roll, John Comyn traced his descent from Bethoc, daughter and heiress of Donald[238]. This conflict in the claimant’s genealogy is suspicious. In any case, the chronology for Hextilda’s supposed descent from King Donald Bane is stretched to the limit of credibility. It is suggested that the supposed parentage of Hextilda should be treated with caution. “R. Cumin” donated property to Hexham Priory, with the consent of “uxoris meæ Hextildis”, by undated charter which names “fratrem meum Walterum”[239]. "Ric Cymyn" donated "ecclesiam de Lyntunruderie" to Kelso monastery, for the souls of "Henrici comitis dni mei et…Johis filii mei quorum corpa apud eos tumulant", by charter dated to [1160], witnessed by "Hextild sponsa mea, Od filio meo…"[240]. "Ricardus Cumin" donated [Slapfeld] to Holyrood Abbey, with the consent of "Hestild uxoris mee et heredum meorum", by charter dated to [1166] witnessed by "…Odinello et Simone filiis meis…"[241]. Hextilda married secondly (after 1179), as his second wife, her second cousin, Malcolm Earl of Atholl. Her second marriage is confirmed by the undated charter under which “Hextildis comitissa de Eththetela” donated property to Rievall Abbey, for the soul of “domini mei Richardi Cumin”[242]. "Malcolmus comes de Athoil" donated "ecclesiam de Dul" to St Andrew’s priory by undated charter witnessed by "Dunecano comite de Fif, Hextilda comitissa sponsa mea…Henrico et Dunecano filiis meis…"[243]. The Liber Vitæ of Durham lists (in order) "Hextild, Willelmus, Odenellus, Simon, Ricardus Cumin…", and in a later passage "Malcolmus filius Mal. et comes Athodlie, Hextilda filia Ucthredi uxor eius…"[244]."

Her 1st husband.3,1,4,5,6,2 Uhtred (?) of Tynedale was born circa 1050.2
     GAV-23 EDV-23.

; Per Genealogics:
     “Uchtred, lord of Tyndale, was the first member of the family known by this name. He married Bethóc, daughter of Domnall Bán mac Donnchada, Donald III Bane, king of Scots, with whom he had a daughter Hextilda who would have progeny with her husband Richard Comyn. Uchtred's name, the period of his life and his lands and position suggest a kinship with the Anglo Saxon earls of Northumbria, one of whom was Uchtred the Bold, earl from 1006 to 1016. These earls, in turn, were descended from the Saxon kings of Northumbria. It is not recorded when Uchtred died. His son-in-law Richard Comyn became lord of Tynedale by right of his wife.”.2

     "[BETHOC (-[1150/70][290]). The sources are contradictory regarding the supposed child of King Donald. The proofs relating to the claim to the Scottish throne in 1291 made by "dñi Johannis Comyn" name "Gothrik" as the son of "Dovenald filius Duncani filii Erici", and trace John Comyn’s descent from him[291]. However, in the Great Roll, John Comyn traced his descent from Bethoc, daughter and heiress of Donald[292]. Bethoc’s first marriage is confirmed by a charter of King Henry III dated 1261 which confirmed to John Comyn the land inherited from Hextildis, wife of Richard Comyn and daughter of Uhtred son of Waltheof[293]. Her second marriage is referred to by Young but he does not cite the corresponding primary source, which has not yet been identified[294]. Altogether the chronology for Bethoc is stretched almost to beyond credibility. Her supposed father King Donald Bane must have been born before 1040, and yet his daughter is supposed to have been living more than 100 years later, and her supposed second husband living in the last quarter of the 12th century. It is suggested that this supposed descent of Hextilda, wife of Richard Comyn, from King Donald Bane should be treated with caution.

The Historia Norwegie names "Haraldus Comatus" as son and successor of "Halfdanus…Niger", recording that he reigned for 73 years and had 16 sons[44]. Snorre names Harald as the son of Halfdan "the Black" & his second wife[45]. According to Snorre, Harald was ten years old when he succeeded his father as King at Vestfold[46]. He conquered the area around Trondheim where Haakon Grjotgardson Jarl of Haalogaland accepted his overlordship. He was supported by the Jarl of Möre. The local rulers farther south joined forces against Harald, but were defeated in the naval battle at Hafrsfjord, after which Harald became ruler of all Norway as HARALD I "Hårfagre/Harfagri/Fairhair" King of Norway. He corresponded with Athelstan King of Wessex, and dispatched a mission to England led by Helgrim and Osfrid who presented Athelstan with an ornate warship at York[47]. During his lifetime King Harald divided his kingdom between his sons and gave them all the title king. He decreed the title hereditary in the male line, and that his descendants in the female line should have the title Jarl. He granted:
** Vingulmark, Raumarike, Vestfold and Thelamark to his sons Olav, Björn, Sigtryg, Frode and Thorgils;
** Hedemark and Gudbrandsdal to his sons Dag, Hring and Ragnar;
** Ringerike, Hadeland, Thoten and their dependencies to his sons by Snæfrid;
** Hordaland and Sogn to his sons Hrorek and Gudrod;
** Halogaland, North More and Raumsdal to his son Eirik;
** his son Guthrom retained the lands which he already controlled;
** the land north of Trondheim to Halfdan "the Black", Halfdan "the White" and Sigrod.
     "The division resulted in major disputes between his sons about who would inherit the overall kingship[48]. The dating of this division is difficult to assess, but from the chronology of events recorded by Snorre it appears to have occurred before the birth of King Harald's son Haakon, which is dated to [919]. King Harald abdicated in 930 "when he was 80 years old" in favour of his son Erik, died three years later in 933, and was buried "under a mound at Haugar in Karmtsund, near the church in Haugesund"[49].

     "m fourthly SNEFRIED, daughter of SVASE the Finn & his wife ---. Snorre names Snæfried, the daughter of Svase the Finn, who ensnared King Harald with a magic potion which was effective even after her death. The spell was only broken when her body was burned on a funeral pyre at which time "serpents and lizards and toads and every species of venomous reptile continued to issue from it"[54].
     "m fifthly ALVHILD, daughter of RING Dagsson of Ringerike & his wife ---. Snorre names "lastly Ashild, a daughter of Hring Dagson" as one of the wives of King Harald[55].

Snorre names "Ragnhild the Mighty", a daughter of King Eirik from Jutland" as one of the wives of King Harald, commenting that "it is said that he put away nine wives" when he married her[122]. No indication has been found in the primary sources so far consulted about which King Rörik may have been Ragnhild's father. However, from a chronological point of view it is more likely that he was the most junior of the kings of this name. According to Snorre, "Queen Ragnhild the Mighty" lived three years after she came to Norway[123].
