He was named in the Feb 1233 testament of his brother Pierre[370]. The Annals of Dunstable record that “electus Valenciæ, avunculus reginæ nostræ” arrived in England in 1237 and was made the king´s principle adviser (“consiliarius regis principalis”) and granted the honor of Richmond[371]. Matthew of Paris records that he was adviser to Henry III King of England but left the country after quarrelling with the barons, but was permitted to return by the king[372], which represents the earliest reference in this source to the problems caused by relations of Queen Eléonore. The king proposed his election as Bishop of Winchester in 1238, but the church council elected Ralph Neville, whose election was quashed by the Pope after intervention by the king[373]. He was elected Bishop of Liège in 1238. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the election “in crastino sancti Iohannis” in 1238 of the new bishop of Liège, where “primicerius Metensis Iacobus...prepositus Leodiensis et frater ducis de Nanceio” supported the candidacy of “preposito Ottoni Aquensi”, while “archdyaconus...Galtherus frater comitis de Retest” supported “fratri comitis Flandrie...electo Valentie Guillelmo”. The same source records that “ille de Traiecto vel de Aquis” was elected first by “Conradum Coloniensem electum et per Conradum filium imperatoris et per ipsum imperatorem”, while “electus Valencie” was visiting Cremona where he also received “regalia sua ab imperatore”. Both candidates then went to Rome where the Pope annulled the election of “pontifex Traiectensem Ottonem” and confirmed “electum Valentie Guillelmum” as bishop of Liège[374]. Matthew Paris records the death "die omnium Sanctorum…venenatus Viterbii" in 1239 of "Guillelmus de Sabaudia electus Valentinus"[375]. The Chronicle of Hautecombe records the death in 1239 of "dominus Guillermus de Sabaudia electus Valencie" and his burial "III Non Mai" (presumably in 1240)[376]. The Aegidii Aurævallensis Gesta Episcoporum Leodiensium records the death “in partibus Transalpinis” in Oct 1239 of Bishop Guillaume and his burial “in civitate Florentia”[377]. The testament of "Philippi de Sabaudia electi Lugdunensis", dated 26 May 1256, names "Petrus de Sabaudia frater et Beatrix comitissa Provinciæ" as his heirs, chooses burial at Hautecombe, and founds an anniversary at Valence for the soul of "defuncti fratris sui Willelmi, electi illius ecclesiæ"[378]."

; Per Wikipedia:
     "William of Savoy[1] (died 1239 in Viterbo) was a bishop from the House of Savoy. He was a son of Thomas, Count of Savoy and Margaret of Geneva. He was elected bishop of Valence in 1224. He negotiated the weddings of queens, and was an advisor to Henry III of England. Between his religious roles and his family relations, his influence was noted from London to Rome.
Career in Savoy
     "Being at least the fourth son of a noble house, William's father Thomas sought for him positions in the church which would serve to strengthen the County of Savoy rather than diminish it. This included a request by 1220 to Henry III of England which led to William being responsible for the benefices of St Michael's on Wyre and Bingham. In 1220 he was also elected dean of the cathedral at Vienne, and in 1225 was elected bishop of Valence, replacing Gérold of Lausanne, who had just become patriarch of Jerusalem.[2]
     "His job as bishop included temporal authority as well as spiritual, but this was contested by Ademar de Peiteus, Count of Valentinois. With the assistance of his kinfolk, William was able to defeat the forces of Ademar and negotiated a favorable peace treaty in 1231.[3]
     "When their father died in 1233, William's brothers began to struggle for control of the various portions of the county. In July 1234, the brothers met at Château de Chillon, some bringing large armed forces with them. William played a key role in maintaining the integrity of the county under Amadeus IV of Savoy, with the others receiving significant portions under his authority. These portions were also designed to encourage those brothers to expand their authority outward from the county. The treaty they signed there required all the brothers to take arms against any one of them who violated the territory of another, and left William as the arbiter of any disputes.[4]
International Influence
     "William of Savoy lobbied to have his niece Margaret of Provence marry Louis IX of France, as this would bring prestige and influence to his family. He and his brother Thomas accompanied her to her wedding and coronation, but William was not invited to the court in Paris and sent home by Blanche of Castile with a few gifts.
     "William then labored to have Margaret's younger sister Eleanor marry Henry III of England. This succeeded and in 1236 he came with her to England. Henry made William the head of a council of advisors.[5] Henry exchanged letters with Pope Gregory IX about how much he needed William in England.[6] Henry then tried to have William selected as bishop of Winchester; the chapter resisted Henry on this.[7] In 1237, William worked on behalf of his brother Thomas, Count of Flanders to convince Henry to release many Flemish merchants and restore better trade between England and Flanders.[8] That same year, William was also a signing witness to a treaty between England and Scotland.[9]
     "When Frederick II, Holy Roman Emperor called together an army to invade Italy in 1238, Henry chose William to accompany his force of 100 knights from Gascony, so that he could lead them through his Savoy's Alpine passes. He joined the imperial army in Turin, and then went on to participate in the siege of Brescia. His prowess during this was widely noted. Philippe Mousket recorded that he led his troops on August 23 to drive off a force coming in from Piacenza to help Brescia.[10] He and his troops took 90 knights and 300 infantry prisoner, while the foe took only 5 prisoners.[11]
     "In 1238 William secured election as Prince-Bishop of Liège. He died next year, in Italy (said to have been poisoned[12]).

Under another testament dated 7 May 1268, "Petrus comes Sabaudia" granted bequests to "…domine Margarete comitisse de Quiburgo…sorori nostre…"[474].

Genealogy.EU states that Margherita married secondly to Eberhard von Laufenburg (von Habsburg). However, Med Lands states: "ccording to Europäische Stammtafeln[908], Graf Eberhard married firstly (as her second husband) Marguerite de Savoie, widow of Hartmann III Graf von Kiburg, daughter of Thomas I Comte de Savoie & his wife Béatrix [Marguerite] de Genevois. Apart from the improbability of Graf Eberhard marrying as his first wife a lady over 50 years old (she was born in 1212[909]), the Chronicle of Hautecombe[910] states that Marguerite died in 1273, two years after the date of Graf Eberhard's marriage to Anna von Kiburg. According to the Chronicle, she was 'Margarita comitissa de Quiborch in Alemania' when she died, with no mention of Habsburg-Laufenburg."⁶

; her 2nd husband.⁸
Margaret/Avoie (?) de Savoie died between 15 February 1285 and 1286.¹
      ; Per Med Lands: "[AVOIE [Marguerite] de Savoie (-shortly before 14 May 1292). Matthew of Paris reports that "Baldewinus de Ripariis, domina regina procurante, quondam alienigenam ducit in uxorem, Sabaudiensem, ipsius reginæ consanguineam"[483]. According to L'Art de vérifier les Dates[484], Avoie was the daughter of Thomas I Comte de Savoie. The primary source which confirms her name has not yet been identified. It is argued in the Complete Peerage[485] that the wife of Baldwin de Reviers, 7th Earl of Devon, could not have been the daughter of Comte Thomas because she was referred to as 'Margaret' in other sources, Comte Thomas I's daughter of that name being the wife of Hartmann III Graf von Kyburg at the time of the Earl's marriage. The Complete Peerage[486] also refers to a writ on the Patent Roll of 52 Henry III "from which it appears that the king had given to the daughter [unnamed] of Thomas, sometime Count of Savoy, 500 marks on her marriage", this presumably being the widowed Countess of Devon on the occasion of her second marriage. The date of the writ matches the supposed second marriage of Avoie de Savoie. The Complete Peerage[487] assumes that the Count Thomas in question must have been Thomas II. However, the latter's second marriage (from which all his known surviving legitimate children were born) took place in 1251. This would exclude the Earl and Countess of Devon having a son "John who died an infant"[488]. The possibilities therefore seem to be (a) that the Countess of Devon was the illegitimate daughter of either Comte Thomas I or of Comte Thomas II; (b) that she was the legitimate daughter of Comte Thomas I, called either Avoie or Marguerite despite his having another legitimate daughter named Marguerite; or (c) that 'Thomas' in the Patent Roll writ was an error for another Count of Savoy (although it is unclear who this might have been as all other possibilities appear to be excluded). It is recognised that Avoie could not have been born much later than 1220 if she was the legitimate daughter of Comte Thomas I, and therefore would have been at least 17 years older than her first husband the Earl of Devon. Avoie is not mentioned in the 11 Oct 1264 will of her supposed brother Boniface Archbishop of Canterbury which made bequests to "sorori suæ comitissæ Provinciæ…sorori suæ alteræ comitissæ de Quiborc…"[489]. Although this omission is not conclusive as the testator's other presumed two sisters, abbesses Alix and Agathe, were not mentioned either, it is somewhat surprising that he would not have mentioned a legitimate sister who was then living in England, if he had one. The most likely probability is that Avoie was illegitimate. For presentation purposes in this document she is shown as the illegitimate daughter of Comte Thomas I, but it is recognised that Comte Thomas II is an alternative possible father. m firstly (1257) BALDWIN de Reviers Earl of Devon, son of BALDWIN de Reviers Earl of Devon & his wife Amice de Clare (1 Jan 1236-in France 1262 before 13 Sep, bur Breamore Priory, Hampshire).
