     "AGNES (-after 1136). The Chronicon Mauriniacensi records that "Stephanus Cancellarius" arranged the marriage of "nepti sua" and "Amalrico de Monteforti", adding that her dowry was "honore de Rupe-forti" [Rochefort][592]. The primary source which confirms her name has not been identified.
     "Du Chesne suggests that the widow of Amaury [III] de Montfort Comte d’Evreux married, as her second husband and his first wife, Robert de France Seigneur de Dreux[593]. He bases this on a charter dated to [1 Nov 1183/31 Mar 1184] in which Philippe II King of France confirmed the property of Notre-Dame de Colombs, including property "in loco Campus à la Drouë" donated by "Robertus comes de Drocis et de Montfort" and "domum de là Nouë" donated by "Simon de Drocis in sua ultima voluntate"[594]. Du Chesne’s argument is that Robert Seigneur de Dreux could only have been entitled to "le titre de comte de Montfort, don’t le roy le rehausse" from "un mariage fait avec la douairiere de la mesme comté". He also suggests that "Simon de Drocis", also named in the same charter, was the son of this marriage. There are three difficulties with Du Chesne’s argument. Firstly, Amaury [III] de Montfort was comte d’Evreux not "comte de Montfort", a title which does not appear ever to have been borne by members of his family. Secondly, the chronology is unfavourable for the widow of Amaury [III], who was probably born in [1110/15] at the latest, to have married Robert de Dreux whose birth is estimated to [1124/26]. Thirdly, it is unlikely that Agnes would have given the name Simon to a son born from this supposed second marriage, given that she already had a son of that name by her marriage to Amaury. In conclusion, the evidence of the [1183/84] charter alone is insufficient to corroborate this marriage.

; Per Genealogics:
     “Amaury was the son of Simon I, seigneur de Montfort l'Amauri, and Agnes d'Evreux. He succeeded his brother Simon II, who died in 1101 without progeny. He was also the brother of Bertrade de Montfort, married successively to Foulques IV 'Rechin', comte d'Anjou, and Philippe I, king of France.
     “Amaury was a direct vassal of the king of France, holding fortresses on the border of the royal domain, but in 1098, during a campaign by William II Rufus, king of England and guardian of Normandy, in the Vexin against the king of France, Amaury did not hesitate to open the gates of the castle of Houdan to him. On the death of King Philippe I in 1108, he supported Philippe de France, the son of his sister Queen Bertrade, against the new King Louis VI 'the Fat', Philippe's half-brother. However he reconciled with the king in 1112 and succeeded in convincing the count of Anjou to ally with the king of France against Henry I, king of England.
     “About 1115 Amaury married Richilde de Hainault, daughter of Baudouin II, Graaf van Henegouwen, and Ida de Louvain, but the couple divorced on grounds of consanguinity. In 1118 he married Agnès de Garlande, daughter of Anceau de Garlande, comte de Rochefort, and Beatrice or Alice de Rochefort-en-Yvelines. Of his children, Simon III and Agnès would have progeny.
     “Following the death in 1092 or 1093 of Roger de Tosny, son of Radulf III de Tosny and Amaury's sister Elisabeth, Roger's brother Raoul IV had become the heir to the county of Evreux. Amaury also inherited these rights and claimed the county in 1118, on the death of Guillaume d'Evreux.
     “However Henry I, king of England and duke of Normandy, refused to give Amaury the county of Evreux and attached it to the duchy of Normandy. Amaury then formed a coalition with the king of France, the count of Anjou and several Norman barons to gain his inheritance by force of arms. Amaury took Evreux in October 1118. In 1119 Henry took the city and burned it, but could not win possession of the citadel, held by supporters of Amaury. In October 1119 the Council of Reims allowed them to enter into an agreement whereby Amaury gave up the citadel to Henry, who gave the county to Amaury.
     “However relations between the count of Evreux and the king of England did not long remain cordial. With the royal agents raising too many taxes on the lands of the county, contrary to custom, Amaury persuaded his nephew Foulques V 'the Young', comte d'Anjou et Maine, to marry his daughter Sibylla to William Clito of Normandy, son of Robert II Curthose, duke of Normandy, and pretender to the duchy of Normandy. He also allied himself with many Norman lords dissatisfied with their overlords. The revolt broke out in 1123. On 25 March 1124 Guillaume de Grandcourt, a younger son of Henri I, comte d'Eu, captured Amaury during an ambush at Bourgthéroulde. However Guillaume chose to desert with Amaury rather than deliver him to Henry I. Many of the conspirators were captured that day, including Galeran IV de Beaumont, comte de Meulan-sur-Seine, Amaury's future son-in-law. Amaury took refuge in France. Soon after he made his submission to Henry and was able to resume possession of the county of Evreux. Amaury again conspired in 1126, supporting King Louis VI of France, who sought to help William Clito, but he then fell out with Louis. He died on 18 or 19 April 1137.”.⁶

; Per Racines et Histoire (Beynes): “2) Amauri III de Montfort + 1137 seigneur de Houdan puis de Montfort (1105), comte d’Evreux (1118, reconquis sur les Anglais) bâtit le château de Montchauvet
ép. 1115 Agnès de Garlande, dame de Rochefort”.⁷

; Per The Henry Project: "Amaury III, d. 18 or 19 April, after 1136; count of Évreux, 1118-; lord of Montfort l'Amaury;
m. (1) Richilde, daughter of Baldwin II, count of Hainaut;
m. (2) A[gnes], niece of Étienne de Garlande.
In 1098, Amaury aided king William II Rufus in his attack against Montfort and Épernon, which were defended by Amaury's brother Simon [OV x, 5 (4: 25-6), see above]. He had probably already succeeded his brother Simon as lord of Montfort by 1118, when he became count of Évreux in succession to his uncle Guillaume ["Amalricus enim de Monteforti, Simonis et Agnetis filius, ex sorore nepos Guillelmi comitis, Ebroicensem comitatum expetiit..." OV xii, 1 (4: 313-4)]. Amaury appears to have been living in September 1136 ["Rodbertus enim de Novo Burgo... per Amalricum comitem jam dudum amicitia et familiaritate inhæserat." OV xiii, 26 (5: 68)]. Rhein states that he died in 1137, and was buried in the abbey of Haute-Bruyère, where the anniversary was celebrated on 19 April ["XIII Kal. maii" Rhein (1910), 57, citing Bibl. nat., MS fr. 20293; "XIIII kal. marcii, Obit. Sens, 2: 224]. It was also celebrated on 19 April at Saint-Père-en-Vallée ["XIII kal. [Maii] Amauricus, princeps de Monteforti", ibid. 2: 187]. His death was celebrated on 18 April at Saint-Magloire ["XIIII cal. maii. Amalricus comes" Obit. Sens 1.1: 390] and Saint-Lazare [Rhein (1910), 57, citing Bibl. nat. MS lat. 5480, 2: 149], and on 27 April at Saint-Martin-des-Champs ["V kal. ... Amalricus miles de Monteforti" Obit. Sens 1.1: 435]. Giselbert of Mons states that Richilde de Hainaut, second daughter of count Baldwin II, was married to the [unnamed] count of Montfort in France, that he repudiated her, and that she afterward took the veil at Maubeuge ["Sepedicto Balduino comiti Hanoniensi, Balduini comitis Flandrie et Hanonie et Richeldis comitisse filio... Filie autem fuerunt tres... alia vero Richeldis nomine comiti Montisfortis in Francia, que a viro relicta, postea in Melbodiensi ecclesia sanctimonialis diu et honorifice vixit..." Giselbert, Chronicon Hanoniense, MGH SS 21: 505]. Orderic Vitalis indicates that Amaury III was still married to his wife Richilde in about 1118 ["Unde monachi Amalricum comitem, Montis-Fortis Dominum, adierunt... et ipse omnia superius memorata concessit eis coram Richelde Amalrici uxore." OV v, 19 (2: 452-3)]. It seems reasonable to assume that this was the same Richilde. As is discussed on the page of Amaury I, there seems to be no real evidence that consanguinity was the reason for the repudiation. His second wife, said to have been named Agnès, was a niece of Étienne de Garlande ["[Stephanus Cancellarius] ... Tradita vero nepti sua in conjugio Amalrico de Monte-forti cum honore de Rupe-forti, qui puellæ de matrimonio obvenerat ..." Chron. Mauriniacensi, RHF 12: 76-7; see Moriarty-Loyd-White, 714, for "A" as her initial]."

His parentage is recorded by Orderic Vitalis[705]. He succeeded his brother after [1104] as Seigneur de Montfort-l'Amaury. Orderic Vitalis records that, after the death of his maternal uncle Guillaume "Crespin" Comte d'Evreux, Amaury claimed the succession but Henry I King of England "took the county of Evreux into his own hands" because he "had forfeited the king's favour by his effrontery"[706]. He led a major rebellion and captured the town of Evreux[707]. King Henry besieged the castle but the two parties were reconciled by King Henry's nephew Thibaut Comte de Blois[708], when Amaury succeeded as Comte d'Evreux. The necrology of Saint-Père-en-Vallée records the death "19 Apr" of "Amauricus princeps de Monteforti"[709]. The necrology of Haute-Bruyère lists members of the Montfort family who are buried in the abbey, starting with "conte Amaury…qui premier fonda l'eglise, dou fil le conte Simon le Chauf qui gist a Evreux"[710].

      ; According to The Henry Project: "The case for placing Eve as a probable daughter of Amaury, as presented in CP 7, 708, note (h), can be outlined as follows: Miraculum que B.

Orderic states that the same William Crispin III was a nepos of Amauri, count of Evreux (a son of Simon I de Montfort). This appears to make her a member of the Montfort family (although not certainly so), in which case chronology would put her as a likely daughter of Amauri I."⁹

However, the parentage of this wife (if not her name) is clearly documented by a charter of her son Amaury dated 1 February 1083, which identifies Hugues Bardoul as his grandfather ["Ego Amalricus, filius Simonis de Monteforti... Hanc vero ecclesiam... donavit Hugo Bardulfus predictis fratribus; post mortem vero Bardulfi, ubi honor illius ad patrum meum... adiit... Ego autem Amalricus, ubi ad viriles annos deveni et pater meus mihi honorem avi mei Hugonis tradidit. ..." Rhein (1910), 299 (Pièces justificatives #2)]. Other sources confirm this by clearly indicating that Simon de Montfort was a hereditary successor of Hugues Bardould, without specifying the exact relationship, for example an undated charter of Simon ["Ego Simon de Monteforti ... antecessores mei ... Hugo videlicet Bardulfus atque ejus filii... Igitur, post obitum supradicti Bardulfi, cum Novigenti honos ditionisque potestas mihi jure hereditario successerat..." Rhein (1910), 297-8 (Pièces justificatives #1)], and an item from the cartulary of Coulombs ["... Hugo Bardulfus, Castri Novigenti post ipsos existens dominus, aliique eorum successores, videliciet, Simon de Montfort et Radulfus junior de Thoenio ..." Devaux (1886): 123, citing Bibl. nat. Ms. latin, 17048, p. 431]. This wife's name is given as Isabelle in an undated donation by Simon de Montfort to the abbey of Coulombs of the tithe of the market of Nogent, given with the consent of his wife Isabelle and son Amaury [Rhein (1910), 125 (Catalogue des actes #3, citing Bibl. nat. Ms. latin, 17048, p. 437)].“.⁶

m. (1) Richilde, daughter of Baldwin II, count of Hainaut;
m. (2) A[gnes], niece of Étienne de Garlande.
In 1098, Amaury aided king William II Rufus in his attack against Montfort and Épernon, which were defended by Amaury's brother Simon [OV x, 5 (4: 25-6), see above]. He had probably already succeeded his brother Simon as lord of Montfort by 1118, when he became count of Évreux in succession to his uncle Guillaume ["Amalricus enim de Monteforti, Simonis et Agnetis filius, ex sorore nepos Guillelmi comitis, Ebroicensem comitatum expetiit..." OV xii, 1 (4: 313-4)]. Amaury appears to have been living in September 1136 ["Rodbertus enim de Novo Burgo... per Amalricum comitem jam dudum amicitia et familiaritate inhæserat." OV xiii, 26 (5: 68)]. Rhein states that he died in 1137, and was buried in the abbey of Haute-Bruyère, where the anniversary was celebrated on 19 April ["XIII Kal. maii" Rhein (1910), 57, citing Bibl. nat., MS fr. 20293; "XIIII kal. marcii, Obit. Sens, 2: 224]. It was also celebrated on 19 April at Saint-Père-en-Vallée ["XIII kal. [Maii] Amauricus, princeps de Monteforti", ibid. 2: 187]. His death was celebrated on 18 April at Saint-Magloire ["XIIII cal. maii. Amalricus comes" Obit. Sens 1.1: 390] and Saint-Lazare [Rhein (1910), 57, citing Bibl. nat. MS lat. 5480, 2: 149], and on 27 April at Saint-Martin-des-Champs ["V kal. ... Amalricus miles de Monteforti" Obit. Sens 1.1: 435]. Giselbert of Mons states that Richilde de Hainaut, second daughter of count Baldwin II, was married to the [unnamed] count of Montfort in France, that he repudiated her, and that she afterward took the veil at Maubeuge ["Sepedicto Balduino comiti Hanoniensi, Balduini comitis Flandrie et Hanonie et Richeldis comitisse filio... Filie autem fuerunt tres... alia vero Richeldis nomine comiti Montisfortis in Francia, que a viro relicta, postea in Melbodiensi ecclesia sanctimonialis diu et honorifice vixit..." Giselbert, Chronicon Hanoniense, MGH SS 21: 505]. Orderic Vitalis indicates that Amaury III was still married to his wife Richilde in about 1118 ["Unde monachi Amalricum comitem, Montis-Fortis Dominum, adierunt... et ipse omnia superius memorata concessit eis coram Richelde Amalrici uxore." OV v, 19 (2: 452-3)]. It seems reasonable to assume that this was the same Richilde. As is discussed on the page of Amaury I, there seems to be no real evidence that consanguinity was the reason for the repudiation. His second wife, said to have been named Agnès, was a niece of Étienne de Garlande ["[Stephanus Cancellarius] ... Tradita vero nepti sua in conjugio Amalrico de Monte-forti cum honore de Rupe-forti, qui puellæ de matrimonio obvenerat ..." Chron. Mauriniacensi, RHF 12: 76-7; see Moriarty-Loyd-White, 714, for "A" as her initial]."

     "AMAURY [III] de Montfort, son of SIMON [I] Seigneur de Montfort-l'Amaury & his third wife Agnès d'Evreux (-[18/19] Apr [1137/38], bur Abbaye de Haute-Bruyère). His parentage is recorded by Orderic Vitalis[705]. He succeeded his brother after [1104] as Seigneur de Montfort-l'Amaury. Orderic Vitalis records that, after the death of his maternal uncle Guillaume "Crespin" Comte d'Evreux, Amaury claimed the succession but Henry I King of England "took the county of Evreux into his own hands" because he "had forfeited the king's favour by his effrontery"[706]. He led a major rebellion and captured the town of Evreux[707]. King Henry besieged the castle but the two parties were reconciled by King Henry's nephew Thibaut Comte de Blois[708], when Amaury succeeded as Comte d'Evreux. The necrology of Saint-Père-en-Vallée records the death "19 Apr" of "Amauricus princeps de Monteforti"[709]. The necrology of Haute-Bruyère lists members of the Montfort family who are buried in the abbey, starting with "conte Amaury…qui premier fonda l'eglise, dou fil le conte Simon le Chauf qui gist a Evreux"[710].
     "Betrothed (1103) to --- de Meulan, daughter of ROBERT de Beaumont-le-Roger Comte de Meulan, Earl of Leicester & his wife Elisabeth de Vermandois [Capet]. Daughter of Robert, she was betrothed by her father to Amaury nephew of Guillaume Comte d'Evreux when only one year old but "various circumstances arose which prevented the marriage" according to Orderic Vitalis[711]. The identity of the daughter is unknown, but she may have been Isabelle (see below). She is named "Aline" in Europäische Stammtafeln[712], but the source for this is not known. If this is correct, she was probably the same person as Robert's daughter Adeline (see below).
     "m firstly ([1115], divorced 1118) RICHILDIS de Hainaut, daughter of BAUDOUIN II Comte de Hainaut & his wife Ida de Louvain ([1095]-after 1118). Orderic Vitalis names "Richenda" as wife of Amaury de Montfort, but does not give her origin[713]. The Chronicon Hanoniense names "Richeldis" as daughter of "Balduino comitis Hanoniensis" and wife of "comiti Montisforti"[714].
     "m secondly (before 1127) AGNES de Garlande, daughter of ANSEAU de Garlande Comte de Rochefort & his wife --- de Rochef ort-en-Yvelines (-after 1136). The Chronicon Mauriniacensi records that "Stephanus Cancellarius" arranged the marriage of "nepti sua" and "Amalrico de Monteforti", adding that he dowry was "honore de Rupe-forti" [Rochefort][715]. The primary source which confirms her name has not yet been identified. Du Chesne suggests that the widow of Amaury [III] de Montfort Comte d’Evreux married, as her second husband and his first wife, Robert de France Seigneur de Dreux[716]. He bases this on a charter dated to [1 Nov 1183/31 Mar 1184] in which Philippe II King of France confirmed the property of Notre-Dame de Colombs, including property "in loco Campus à la Drouë" donated by "Robertus comes de Drocis et de Montfort" and "domum de là Nouë" donated by "Simon de Drocis in sua ultima voluntate"[717]. Du Chesne’s argument is that Robert Comte de Dreux could only have been entitled to "le titre de comte de Montfort, don’t le roy le rehausse" from "un mariage fait avec la douairiere de la mesme comté". He also suggests that "Simon de Drocis", also named in the same charter, was the son of this marriage. There are three difficulties with Du Chesne’s argument. Firstly, Amaury [III] de Montfort was comte d’Evreux not "comte de Montfort", a title which does not appear ever to have been borne by members of his family. Secondly, the chronology is unfavourable for the widow of Amaury [III], who was probably born in [1110/15] at the latest, to have married Robert de Dreux whose birth is estimated to [1124/26]. Thirdly, it is unlikely that Agnes would have given the name Simon to a son born from this supposed second marriage, given that she already had a son of that name by her marriage to Amaury. In conclusion, the evidence of the [1183/84] charter alone is insufficient to corroborate this marriage."

      ; Per Genealogics:
     "Anceau was the son of Adam, a castle lord on the Ile-de-France. Like his brothers Guillaume and Etienne he was a seneschal of France. Anceau was married to a daughter of Gui II 'le Rouge' de Monthléry, comte de Rochefort-en-Yvelines, whose family had the highest influence at the court of Louis VI 'the Fat', king of France, by occupying the post of royal seneschal. However in 1108 there was a rift between the king and the house of Monthléry-Rochefort, which culminated in a revolt of the lords of the Ile-de-France against the king. According to the _Vita Ludovici Grossi_ of Abbot Suger of Saint-Denis, the conflict was ignited because of the ambition of the Garlandes who coveted the castle of Gournay belonging to the Monthléry family.
     "The king appointed Anceau as seneschal, but he made an enemy of his brother-in-law Hugues de Crécy, son of Gui II by his second wife Adélaide de Crécy, dame de Gournay-sur-Marne; Hugues had previously held the position of Seneschal, succeeding his father. In 1108 Gournay was captured by the king and presented to Anceau. Because Eudes, comte de Corbeil, had supported the king in this, Hugues de Crécy attacked him and took him prisoner. In December 1108 Anceau attacked Corbeil and freed Eudes. For his faithful services he received the county of Rochefort from the king after his nephew-in-law Gui III, son of Hugues, had died there in 1115.
     "In the following years Hugues III, sire du Puiset, vicomte de Chartres, became a dangerous enemy; he had fallen out with the king over the inheritance of the county of Corbeil. Together with the king, Anceau besieged the castle of Le Puiset in 1111 and 1112. In the spring of 1118 Anceau besieged it a third time, but he was killed by a lance thrust from his adversary Hugues III du Puiset.
     "Anceau had a daughter and heiress Agnès, who was married first to Amaury III de Montfort, comte d'Evreux, sire de Montfort, with whom she had progeny. Then as a widow she married Robert I, comte de Dreux, du Perche, de Braine-sur-Vesle, with whom she had a son who died young.
     "Anceau's brother Guillaume succeeded him in the office of the king's seneschal."⁹

     "Anseau (also Anselm) de Garlande (1069–1118), son of Adam de Garlande and his wife Havoise. His titles included: Count of Rochefort-en-Yvelines, Seigneur of Gournay-sur-Marne, and Pontault and Berchères. De Garlande served as seneschal of France under Louis VI from 1108 to 1118. It is unclear when Anseau was count, although it is likely that he assumed the title after his brother-in-law Guy II the Red died in 1108.
     "His appointment as seneschal was disputed by Fulk V, Count of Anjou, who considered the position as belonging to his family. The issue was resolved through the intervention of Amaury III of Montfort (his future son-in-law), Geoffrey of Vendôme and Raoul de Boisgency.
     "Legend has it that in 1115, Anseau and his niece Yolande were crossing the forest Roissy-en-Brie on horseback when a boar attacked them. They were rescued by a clown and a peasant who were rewarded for their bravery by a plot of land in the forest.
     "Anseau first married a daughter (name unknown) of Guichard de Beaujeu III and Lucienne de Rochefort. His second wife was Beatrice of Montlhéry, daughter of Guy I of Montlhéry and Hodierna of Gometz. Anseau and Beatrice had one daughter: Agnes (Garlande) de Monfort. Anseau was killed in 1118 by a spear of his grand nephew, Hugh III of Le Puiset, during the third siege of the castle of Puiset in Beauce.

Il était le fils de Guillaume Ier de Garlande dit Adam de Garlande, et de Havoise (Havise) N…, frère de Gilbert dit Payen, sénéchal de France, d'Étienne, chancelier du roi, de Guillaume II de Garlande, sénéchal de France, et de Gilbert dit Le Jeune, bouteiller, époux d'Eustachie de Possesse.
     "Il fut seigneur de Gournay-sur-Marne relevant du comté de Melun, seigneur de Pontault et de Berchères3, comte de Rochefort en Yvelines.
     "Il est nommé sénéchal de France en 1108. Le don de cette charge par le roi Louis VI fut la source d'un différend entre le roi et le comte d'Anjou, Foulques, qui considérait que celle-ci revenait de droit à sa Maison. Le comte d'Anjou profita de ce différend pour refuser l'hommage qu'il devait au roi pour son comté, le roi étant alors en guerre contre Henri Ier, roi d'Angleterre, duc de Normandie. Le roi dut trouver un accommodement avec le comte d'Anjou par l'entremise d'Amaury de Montfort, de Geoffroy, abbé de Vendôme et de Raoul de Boisgency. Hugues de Cleers fut envoyé par le comte pour discuter de cet accommodement. D'après Hugues de Cleers, il fut trouvé dans l'hommage que les Garlande, sénéchaux de France, rendaient au comte pour cet office.
     "En 1115, la légende veut que le sénéchal Anseau de Garlande et sa nièce Yolande traversaient à cheval la forêt de Roissy-en-Brie, quand un sanglier attaqua la monture de sa nièce. C’est alors qu’un manant de Torcy et un paysan de Roissy-en-Brie se précipitèrent pour aider le seigneur et la demoiselle4. Pour récompenser cet acte de bravoure, Anseau de Garlande a donc offert une parcelle de forêt, environ 150 hectares, aux villages de Torcy et de Roissy-en-Brie, la forêt étant à l'époque une richesse5, car elle est une réserve de gibiers et de bois pour la construction et le chauffage.
     "Il est tué en 1118 d'un coup de lance par Hugues III du Puiset, lors du troisième siège du château du Puiset, en Beauce.
Famille
     "Anseau de Garlande épousa en premières noces N. de Beaujeu, fille de Guichard III de Beaujeu (mort en 1137) et de Lucienne de Rochefort6.
     "Il se maria en secondes noces avec Béatrice de Montlhéry, fille de Guy 1er de Montlhéry, comte de Rochefort et de Béatrice de Montlhéry. Ils auront une fille unique, Agnès de Garlande (1112-1143), comtesse de Rochefort, Dame de Gournay-sur-Marne et de Gomets, mariée à Amaury III de Montfort, puis à Robert Ier de Dreux7.
