The Annales S. Benigni Divisionensis record the birth "Anno 1212 VII Idus Marcii, VI feria ante mediam noctem anno bisextili" of "Hugo filius Oddonis ducis de domina de Vergerie"[411]. He succeeded his father in 1218 as HUGUES IV Duke of Burgundy, under the regency of his mother until 1231. He acquired Salins in Feb 1225 from Josseran [V] Grossus de Brancion and his wife Marguerite de Vienne, and exchanged it for Chalon 15 Jun 1237 with Jean Comte de Bourgogne. He left on Crusade 1239-1242 and 1248-1250. Otto III Duke of Merano Comte Palatin de Bourgogne gave him possession of the county of Burgundy for 5 years 29 Mar 1242, and his sister Béatrice Gräfin von Orlamünde (Otto's heiress) sold her rights to the county to Duke Hugues IV at Strasbourg in 1265. After trying to enforce his rights, he renounced any claim to the county of Burgundy by agreement with Jean de Chalon at Saint-Jean-de-Losne 20 Apr 1270[412]. "Hugo dux Burgundie" requested the abbot of Cluny to recognise the rights of “Ph Sabaudie et Burgundie comiti et A. comitisse uxori sue” in “comitatu Burgundie…cessionis nobis facte a domina B, comitissa Orlemunde, sorore dicte A. comitissa”, by charter dated Apr 1270[413]. He bought the titular rights to the kingdom of Thessaloniki from the exiled Emperor Baudouin II of Constantinople in Paris in Jan 1266, for 13,000 livres tournois[414]. The bishop of Langres approved an agreement between Hugues IV Duke of Burgundy and “messire Jean de Montreal chevalier” under which the latter transferred his rights in the castles and lands of “Montreal et Chastelgirard” in return for “la Mote de Athées...et...la terre de Montréal hors la ville”, with the consent of “dame Marguerite sa femme, Guiot leur fils, Ieannette, Agnelez et Beatrix leurs filles”, by charter dated 9 Oct 1269[415]. Charles I King of Sicily [Anjou-Capet] named him Captain and Vicar-General of the kingdom of Sicily [11 Nov] 1270. The testament of “Hugo dux Burgundiæ”, dated Sep 1272, with the consent of “liberorum meorum...Odonis primogeniti mei quondam comitis Nivernensis, Ioannis quondam domini Borbonensis et Roberti filii mei”, appointed “dictum Robertum filium meum” as his heir and listed all his castles, bequeathed property “in civitato Eduensi” to “filiæ Odonis primogeniti mei”, castles “Charrolles...Saluamento...Montissancti Vincentii...Dundano et...Arth...Sineuigneis” to “Beatrix filia quondam Ioannis filii mei”, specified castles to “Hugonem filium meum”, dowry to “Beatrix filia mea”, dowry for “Ysabellam filiam meam” for her marriage to “domino Roberto de Flandria comiti Nivernensi...filium dicti Roberti primogenitum contrahendi”, dowry for “Margaretam filiam meam” for her marriage to “Ioanni filio quondam...Ioannis comitis Burgundie domini Salinensis defuncti”, for “Ioannam filiam meam, quam intendo ponere in Religionem”, bequeathed property to “filiam meam...dominam Alasiam ducissam Brabantie” and “Margaretam filiam meam vicecomitissam Lemovicensem”, and to “Beatrix uxor mea”[416]. He transferred the duchy to Robert, his third son, 23 Oct 1272, retaining the usufruct.

She quarrelled with her stepson Robert Duke of Burgundy, and asked for protection from Philippe II "Auguste" King of France[423]. An arrêt of Parliament dated 1 Nov 1292 ordered compensation to “Odo Bezors miles dominus de Villa-Arnulphi...et Agnete eius uxore” for transferring their part of “castro et castellaniæ Iusulæ subtus Montem-Regalem” which they had received under the succession of “defuncti Iohannis de Monteregali militis quondam patris dictæ Agnetis”, which he had inherited from “defuncto Anserico quondam domino Montisregalis”, to “Beatrice ducissa relicta Hugonis ducis Burgundiæ”, while providing for “Guido de Monteregali armiger filius Ioannis de Monteregali quondam militis...et...Beatrice relicta Iacobi domini de Rocha de Breine, sorore dicti Guidonis”[424]. “Guiot de Montreal escuyer” renounced his claims over “la chastellenie de l´île soubs Montreal” derived from “le decés de Jean de Montreal son pere et de Anseric seigneur de Montreal son oncle” in favour of “Beatrix veuve de Hugues Duc de Bourgongne” by charter dated May 1293[425]."

"Hugo dux Burgundie…Aeliz ducissa Burgundie cum Odone filio meo" donated property to Cîteaux by charter dated 1171[380]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Odonem et Alexandrum" as sons of "dux" by his first wife "Aaliz"[381]. "Hugo Burgundie dux et Albonii comes" donated property to the Templars at Beaune, with the support of "Beatricis uxoris mee et…filiorum meorum Odonis, Alexandri et Dalphini", by charter dated Dec 1188[382]. "Hugo…dux Burgundiæ et Albonii comes" confirmed "[cum] assensu filiorum meorum Oddonis et Alexandri" the concession to Cluny by "consanguineæ meæ Matildi comitissæ Tornodori" by charter dated 1186[383]. He governed Burgundy during his father's absence on Crusade from Jun 1190. “Odo filius Hugonis ducis Burgundie” granted privileges to the abbey of Autun Saint-Martin by charter dated 1191[384]. He succeeded his father in 1192 as EUDES III Duke of Burgundy. He acquired the powerful fortress of Vergy by his second marriage in 1199. He renounced any rights over the duchy of Lorraine in 1203. He commanded a division at the battle of Bouvines in 1213. The Annales S. Benigni Divisionensis record the death in 1218 of "Oddo dux Burgundie cruce signatus…filius ducisse Lotoringie"[385]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the death in 1218 of "dux Odo Burgundie" and his burial "apud Cistercium"[386]. The 13th century obituary of the Eglise primatiale de Lyon records the death "II Non Jul" of "Odo dux Burgundie canonicus huius ecclesie qui dedit Sancto Stephano calicem argenteum deauratum et vestimentum sacerdotale…"[387].

The Flandria Generosa specifies that on her (first) marriage she was given "Insulam et Duacum et plures…villas…iacentes, Caslethuin, Watenes, Bergas, Burburgium, totamque maritimmam regionem"[390]. The Flandria Generosa names "Mathildis regine Portusequalis" as wife of Count Philippe, specifying that she arranged the repatriation of her husband's body to "Claramvallem"[391]. After the death of her first husband, she received her widow's portion in southern and coastal Flanders but increased taxes so much that she provoked rebellions at Veurne [Furnes] and the castellany of Bourbourg[392]. A charter dated 1195 records an agreement between the French king and "M. regina comitissa Flandrie" which records that the latter promised not to remarry after separating from "Odone duce Burgundie"[393]. The Flandria Generosa records that she was "amita" of "Fernando filio regis Portusequalis" and instrumental in arranging his marriage to her first husband's great-niece Jeanne Ctss of Flanders[394]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the death in 1218 of "comitissa vetus de Flandria relicta comitis Philippi" and her burial next to her husband at Clairvaux[395]. She died when her carriage accidentally fell into a marsh near Furnes[396].

"Odo dux Burgundie" confirmed the donation by "domina Egidia, mater Alaidis uxoris mee ducisse Burgundie" to Colunge by charter dated Apr 1213[398]. Her origin is further deduced from the necrology of Cîteaux which records the death "XVI Kal Jan" of "Hugo Vergiaci pater ducissa"[399]. Her parentage is further confirmed by a charter dated 1 Sep 1236 in which “Hugo dux Burgundie” names “matrem meam et Guillermum de Vergeio, avunculum meum”[400]. She governed Burgundy on the death of her husband for her son until his majority in 1231. The necrology of Cîteaux records the death "XV Kal Mar" of "Alix ducissa Burgundie"[401]. The necrology of Autun Saint-Martin records the death “II Kal Mar” of “Aalis de Vergy, uxor Odonis ducis Burg., mater Hugonis ducis”[402]. An epitaph at Cîteaux records the burial of “Aalis de Bourgongne” who died 1266[403]. Duchesne identifies her as an otherwise unrecorded daughter of Duke Eudes III[404], but it seems more likely that the epitaph refers to Alix de Vergy and was misdated. "

     “Alix was born in 1182, the daughter of Hugues de Vergy, sire de Vergy, d'Autrey et de Chatelcensoir, and Gille de Trainel. In 1199 she married Eudes III, duke of Burgundy, son of Hugues III, duke of Burgundy, and his first wife Alix de Lorraine. They had four children, of whom their son Hugues would have progeny.
     “The marriage was arranged in 1196 as a part of the peace between Alix's father and Eudes, who had been engaged in a long lasting conflict. As a dowry she was granted several of her father's lands, while Eudes granted her father undisputed ownership of his land. At the death of Eudes in 1218 he was succeeded by his son Hugues IV. As Hugues was five years old, Alix became the regent of Burgundy during his minority with the title 'Ducissa mater ducis Bourgogne'.
     “As regent, Alix worked to secure the inheritance of her son, and received the vassals' oath of loyalty in his place. In 1225 she managed to prevent a conflict with the Dauphiné. She acquired Beaune and Chalon through purchase. In 1227 she signed an alliance with Champagne against Nevers.
     “In 1228 Alix's son was declared of legal majority, and Alix resigned the regency and left court, retiring to her dower, Prenois-en-Montagne. In 1231, however, she acted as the representative of her son in successfully resolving the conflict between the vicomte de Dijon and the abbey of Citeaux. She spent her long retirement as an appreciated benefactor of religious communities.
     “Alix died at Prenois-en-Montagne on 8 March 1252. She was buried alongside her husband at Citeaux Abbey south of Dijon.”.³

Hello All,

With regard to Sir James de Lindsay, Lord of Crawford (d. bef 11
Nov 1358) and his wife Egidia Stewart, daughter of Walter the Stewart
(half-sister to King Robert II), the account in SP states,

' A papal dispensation for this marriage was granted at
Avignon 3 Ides of April 1346, which describes the
spouses as within the third and fourth degree on the
father's side, and in the fourth degree on the mother's.
A strong inference thus arises that Sir James' grandmother,
wife of Sir Alexander, was daughter to the Steward.' [1]

This would seem a reasonable hypothesis, and is taken up in the
databases most noted on the internet [showing the wife of Sir Alexander Lindsay as a daughter of Alexander le Steward, d. 1283, and his wife Jean of Bute, also called Jean 'mac Sorley'], but only if
the 'third degree' relationship were that of Sir James, and not of
his wife. In fact, this is in error, and the wife of Sir Alexander
Lindsay could not be the daughter of (this particular) Alexander le
Steward.

The chronology supports this. The usual presumption is of course,
that the shorter range of generations would be that of the husband
(James in this case), but the following disprove the presumption:

(A) Walter the Stewart, father of Egidia, being a younger son
of James le Stewart, and being born at a rather late date
in James' career at that. James, whose parents were born
one in 1214, the other no later than 1211, was likely over
50 years of age at Walter's birth); and

(B) Egidia herself was a daughter of Walter le Stewart's 2nd
marriage, to Isabel Graham, and was born when her
father Walter was say 30 years of age, or possibly more
(she was first married in 1346, some 20 years after her
father's death at age 33 or 34).

(C) Egidia was a granddaughter of James le Steward; if Sir
James de Lindsay was the grandson of a daughter of the
same James le Steward, their relationship would have been
in the 2nd and 3rd degrees.


The following more correctly illustrates their relationship ' within the
third and fourth degree on the father's side ':


Alexander le Steward = Jean of Bute
_______________________I________________
I I
James le = Egidia (Giles) NN le Steward
Steward I de Burgh I
_________I I
I I
Walter the = 2) Isabel de NN = Sir Alexander
Stewart I Graham I de Lindsay
I ____________I
I I
I Sir David de = Maria
I Lindsay I Abernethy
I __________I
I I
Egidia Stewart = Sir James de Lindsay



The relationship, 'third and fourth degree on the father's side',
actually means in this case that, on their fathers' side the third
degree relationship is that of Egidia Stewart, and therefore the
fourth degree relationship is that of Sir James Lindsay, as shown
above.

Two possibilities I would suggest would resolve the missing
individuals in Sir James de Lindsay's ancestry:

1. The wife of Sir Alexander de Lindsay was an otherwise
unknown daughter of Sir John le Steward, younger brother of
James le Stewart, who died at Falkirk in 1298 (he had at
least 5 known sons, and one known daughter).

2. The wife of Sir Alexander de Lindsay was an otherwise
unknown daughter of Reginald de Crawford by a daughter of
Alexander le Steward (d. 1283). This would account for

A. The 3rd - 4th degree relationship under discussion;

B. The acquisition by Sir Alexander de Lindsay of lands in
Crawford (these were first acquired by Sir Alexander,
following whom the best known Lindsay holding was
Crawford - hence his descendants, the Earls thereof);

C. The occurrence of Reginald de Lindsay, a son of
Sir Alexander de Lindsay and younger brother of Sir
James (SP Vol III, p. 9).

Any added documentation, comment or criticism is welcome. Also,
if anyone has a solution to the other relationship in this
dispensation (Sir James and Egidia were related in 'the fourth degree
on the mother's [side]'), I would be glad to hear of it.

Good luck, and good hunting.

The Annales Blandinienses record "Matheus frater eius [=Philippus comes Flandriæ] Boloniensis comes" taking part with his brother in a military expedition against Holland in 1166[436]. He succeeded in 1160 as Comte de Boulogne, by right of his wife. He led the Flemish contingent of Louis VII King of France against Henry II King of England and was mortally wounded by an arrow at the siege of the château de Driencourt in Normandy[437]. Robert of Torigny records the death in 1173 of "Mathæus comes Boloniæ frater Philippi comitis Flandrensis" from wounds received during the siege of "castri Dringeust"[438]. His burial place is confirmed by the donation by Philippe Count of Flanders for the soul of "fratris Mathei…Bolonie comitis" to the abbey of Saint-Josse by charter dated 1178 which states that the latter was buried in the church[439]. The Flandria Generosa specifies that he was buried "apud Sanctum Iudocum"[440].

The Flandria Generosa names "Mariam filiam Stephani regis Anglie" as wife of Mathieu[441]. She is named daughter of King Stephen by Matthew Paris, when he records her marriage[442]. The Genealogica comitum Buloniensium names "Mariam abbatissam" as daughter of "Stephano, filio Stephani Blesensis comitis" and his wife Mathilde, specifying that "Matheus filius Theoderici comitis Flandrensis, licet illicite, duxit abbatissam" and that they were parents of two daughters[443]. She became a novice at Lillechurch Priory, Kent, later transferred to Romsey Abbey, Hampshire where she became a nun between 1148 and 1155. She was elected abbess of Romsey in 1155. She succeeded her brother in 1159 as MARIE Ctss de Boulogne-sur-Mer. Her future husband abducted her from the convent and forced her to marry him. Pope Alexander III wrote to Henri Archbishop of Reims, dated 18 Dec 1161, regarding the abduction and marriage of "M. filius…comitis Flandrensis" and "monialem…abbatissam", but the document does not name the abbey from which she was abducted[444]. After the annulment of her marriage, she became a nun at the Benedictine nunnery of St Austrebert near Montreuil.

     "Milo II of Montlhéry (died 1118) was lord of Bray and Montlhéry, and viscount of Troyes. He was the son of Milo I the Great and Lithuise,[1] and younger brother of Guy III of Montlhéry.
     "He initially held the lordship of Bray-sur-Seine, in Champagne.[2] In 1105, he attacked his brother's castle of Montlhéry, where his cousin Lucienne de Rochefort, fiancée of Louis VI of France, lived. He invested the castle, but could not succeed in capturing the donjon. Louis VI soon arrived to relieve the siege, and Milo was obliged to retire.
     "On the death of his brother, both he and his cousin Hugh of Crecy asserted their rights to the lordship. Louis VI allotted it to Milo, who in 1113 revolted against him with Thibaut IV of Blois. He married Adela of Blois, daughter of the crusader Stephen, Count of Blois and his widowed countess, Adela of Normandy. This marriage was the result of a treaty negotiated by countess Adela. Milo was to support Adela against King Louis, and in return, he would marry Adela.[3] Due to this connection, Milo was made viscount of Troyes. However, they divorced in 1115. In 1118 Hugh of Crecy took revenge for his loss of Montlhéry by having Milo assassinated; Louis VI then made Montlhéry part of the royal domain of France.
