; Per Genealogics: "Lucienne was born about 1088, the daughter of Gui II 'le Rouge' de Monthléry, comte de Rochefort-en-Yvelines, and his second wife Adélaide de Crécy, dame de Gournay-sur-Marne. In 1104 she became the first wife of the dauphin Louis, the future Louis VI 'the Fat', king of France. In 1107 she was cast aside by Louis, and the marriage was annulled by Pope Paschal II under the pretext of consanguinity, a year before Louis ascended the French throne as Louis VI. Lucienne then became the second wife of Guichard III, sire de Beaujeu, son of Humbert II, sire de Beaujeu, and Wandelmode de Thiern. They had eight children, of whom Humbert III and Alix/Marie are recorded with progeny. Lucienne died about 1137."³

; Per Wikipedia:
     "Lucienne de Rochefort (1088 – died after 6 May 1137) was a French crown princess at an unknown age , the first wife of Louis VI of France from 1104 to 1107.
Life
     "Lucienne de Rochefort was the daughter of Guy II of Rochefort,[1] of the Montlhéry dynasty, and his second wife, Adelais de Crécy.
     "In 1104, she was betrothed to Louis, oldest son of King Philip I of France.[2] The marriage was arranged to strengthen the ties between the king and her father, who had been appointed seneschal of France. Lucienne and Louis were married for three years, but did not have any children together. According to Abbot Suger of Saint-Denis, who wrote a panegyric in honour of Louis (Vita Ludovici VI), the marriage was not consummated. The marriage was annulled by Pope Paschall I at the Council of Troyes on the grounds of consanguinity 23 May 1107, a year before Louis became king.[3] The reason for the annulment has been the subject of speculation. One theory is that queen Bertrade de Montfort wanted to weaken Louis in order to make her own son, Philip of Mantes, more likely for succession,[4] another was the rivalry of Lucienne's father with the Garlande family, who wished to weaken his position. After her marriage was annulled, Lucienne's father, Guy, and her brother Hugh of Crécy rebelled against Louis.[5]
     "Lucienne's second husband was Guichard III of Beaujeu (d.1138).[6]
     "Lucienne is last mentioned alive 6 May 1137.
Children
     "With Guichard, Lucienne had the following children:
Notes
a. As the marriage was dissolved before her husband became King of France, she was never queen.

; Per Genealogics:
     "Gauthier was born after 1095, the son of Crusader Erard I, comte de Brienne, and Alix, dame de Ramerupt. He married five times. His first marriage was to Humbeline (given by some sources as Adélaide) de Baudement, daughter of André de Baudement, seigneur de Baudement et Braine, and Agnès, dame de Braine. His second marriage was to (Adèle) de Soissons, who may have been the daughter of Jean I de Soissons and Aveline de Pierrefonds. Gauthier then married a lady of the de Nesle family, and, after her death in 1137, he married Humbeline de Troyes, widow of Anséric II, sire de Chacenay. Finally in 1146 he married a lady called Adélais. He had at least nine children, of whom André, Erard II, Elwide and Mahaud-Alix would have progeny. There is some uncertainty about the precise identity of the mothers of Gauthier's children. _Europäische Stammtafeln_ attributes the above four to his first wife, but other sources attribute André and Erard II to his second wife (Adèle) de Soissons. In 1141 Gauthier was summoned by the childless Renaud III, comte de Soissons, presumably to assist or act as witness as he decided his succession. Renaud transferred the county of Soissons to Ives II de Nesle and became a monk. After the foundation of the abbey of Basse Fontaine in Brienne-la-Vieille in 1143, Gauthier made many gifts to it, of goods, lands and dependencies. He joined the Second Crusade in 1147, he died before 1156 in the Holy Land."⁴

He succeeded his father as Comte de Brienne. Seigneur de Ramerupt. He founded the abbey of Bassefontaine with his mother in 1143[53].

As discussed more fully below under Comte Gauthier [II]’s wife Humbeline, this document could mean that Erard de Chacenay was related to Erard [II] Comte de Brienne through Humbeline’s possible first marriage. If that is correct, Comte Gauthier’s daughter Agnes, married to Jacques de Chacenay, must have been born from an otherwise unrecorded earlier marriage of her father. As noted below, the more likely interpretation of the 1174 document is that Erard de Chacenay was nepos of Erard [II] because he was the son of the latter’s sister.]

A charter dated 1138 notes that "Galterum Brennensem comitem" donated property to the hospitals of Chalette and Brienne with the consent of "uxoris sue Hubeline"[57]. Her parentage is confirmed by the charter dated 1144 under which "Aelidis uxor Widonis domini de Brana post mortem viri sui…Guidonis" donated "census…Branæ castri et Branellæ villæ" to the Premonstré abbey, with the consent of "patre eorum Andrea de Baldimento et matre eorum Agnetis et ipsorum fratre Waleranno Vrsicampi abbate et sororibus eorum Helwide et Hubelina et earum maritis Waltero comiti de Brienna et Guidone de Dampierre" (although the names of the brothers-in-law are reversed in this document)[58]. [It is possible that Humbeline married firstly Anseric [II] Seigneur de Chacenay. This possible first marriage is suggested by one interpretation of the charter dated 1174 which records a dispute involving her son "comitem de Brenna Herardum" which was witnessed by “Erardus nepos eius de Chacenaio”[59]. What supports this possible interpretation is that the wife of Anseric [II] was named Humbeline, as shown by the charter dated 22 Feb 1119 under which "Ansericus de Cacennaco…uxoris Hubeline…filio meo Jacobo" donated property to the abbey of Molesme[60]. Another interesting observation is that the sister of Humbeline de Baudémont married Hugues Seigneur de Montréal, the possible brother of Anséric [II], duplicate brothers/sisters marriages being relatively frequent at the time. However, there are two problems with this possible interpretation of the 1174 document. Firstly, a chronological difficulty is suggested by the birth of Humbeline’s son by her supposed first marriage before 1119, Anseric’s death in 1137, and the supposed birth of several children by her second marriage before 1147. Secondly, the more natural interpretation of the 1174 document is that Erard de Chacenay was nepos of Erard de Brienne because he was the son of the latter’s sister. As discussed in more detail below, this latter interpretation also best explains another charter dated 1146 as well as the introduction of the name Erard into the family of the seigneurs de Chacenay. If that second interpretation is correct, there were two different individuals named Humbeline, one married to Anseric de Chacenay and the other to Gauthier de Brienne.] "Matris mee" is recorded as present in the charter dated 1166 of "Erardus Brenensis comes"[61]. "E Brenensium comes" donated property to Basse-Fontaine "matre mea mediante actum fuisse" by charter dated 1166[62]. Neither charter names the mother of Comte Erard, but they show that she survived her husband. Gauthier must therefore have repudiated Humbeline before his marriage to Adelais, who is named in a charter dated 1147 as his wife (see below).

Another interesting observation is that the sister of Humbeline de Baudémont married Hugues Seigneur de Montréal, the possible brother of Anséric [II], duplicate brothers/sisters marriages being relatively frequent at the time. However, there are two problems with this possible interpretation of the 1174 document. Firstly, a chronological difficulty is suggested by the birth of Humbeline’s son by her supposed first marriage before 1119, Anseric’s death in 1137, and the supposed birth of several children by her second marriage before 1147. Secondly, the more natural interpretation of the 1174 document is that Erard de Chacenay was nepos of Erard de Brienne because he was the son of the latter’s sister. As discussed in more detail below, this latter interpretation also best explains another charter dated 1146 as well as the introduction of the name Erard into the family of the seigneurs de Chacenay. If that second interpretation is correct, there were two different individuals named Humbeline, one married to Anseric de Chacenay and the other to Gauthier de Brienne.] "Matris mee" is recorded as present in the charter dated 1166 of "Erardus Brenensis comes"[61]. "E Brenensium comes" donated property to Basse-Fontaine "matre mea mediante actum fuisse" by charter dated 1166[62]. Neither charter names the mother of Comte Erard, but they show that she survived her husband. Gauthier must therefore have repudiated Humbeline before his marriage to Adelais, who is named in a charter dated 1147 as his wife (see below).
     "m [secondly/thirdly] (before 1147) ADELAIS, daughter of ---. "G comes Brene" donated property to "ecclesie Sancte Marie de Rameruco" with the consent of "uxoris Adelisis, Erardi, Andreæ filium meorum atque Marie filie mee" by charter dated 1147[63]. "Walterus comes Brenensis" made donations to the priory of Jully-les-Nonnains with the consent of "Adelaidis uxor suæ et filiorum meorum Arardi et Andree et filiarum mearum Marie et Helvidis" by charter dated [1150][64].
     "Comte Gauthier [II] & his [first/second] wife had nine children [this document assumes that Humbeline was the mother of all of Gauthier’s children, in line with the most natural interpretation of the various charters which are quoted here. If Humbeline was the same person as the widow of Anseric [II] Seigneur de Chacenay, several of the older children shown here must have been born from Gauthier’s first marriage.]"

As a condition of his betrothal to Catherine de Courtenay, he promised to renounce his rights to Sicily and give help to reconquer the Latin Empire of Constantinople, but this proposal was opposed by Philippe IV King of France and the betrothal was terminated[465]. Don Fadrique was proclaimed Lord at Palermo 12 Dec 1295, and recognised as FEDERIGO I King of Sicily by the Parliament-General at Catania 15 Jan 1296, crowned at Palermo 25 Mar 1296. He was confirmed King of Trinacria [Sicily] for life by the Treaty of Caltabellotta Aug 1302, under which Carlo II King of Naples confirmed Sicily as the dowry of his daughter Eleonora for the life of her husband, to return to Carlo’s heirs after Federigo’s death.

Ignoring the peace signed between his father and Carlo II King of Naples, Infante don Fadrique occupied Sicily. As a condition of his betrothal to Catherine de Courtenay, he promised to renounce his rights to Sicily and give help to reconquer the Latin Empire of Constantinople, but this proposal was opposed by Philippe IV King of France and the betrothal was terminated[465]. Don Fadrique was proclaimed Lord at Palermo 12 Dec 1295, and recognised as FEDERIGO I King of Sicily by the Parliament-General at Catania 15 Jan 1296, crowned at Palermo 25 Mar 1296. He was confirmed King of Trinacria [Sicily] for life by the Treaty of Caltabellotta Aug 1302, under which Carlo II King of Naples confirmed Sicily as the dowry of his daughter Eleonora for the life of her husband, to return to Carlo’s heirs after Federigo’s death. War broke out again with the Angevins of Naples 1313. Federigo had the Sicilian parliament recognise his son Pietro as his successor 12 Jun 1314. He retook the title King of Sicily 9 Aug 1314.
