Her 2nd husband; his 2nd wife.³
Emich IV (?) Graf von Leiningen in Landeck died in 1281.¹
      ; Per Genealogics:
     "Emich was born about 1215, the second son of Friedrich II von Saarbrücken, Graf von Leiningen, and Agnes von Eberstein. In 1234 he married a daughter, probably called Elisabeth, of Joffroi II d'Aspremont, sire d'Aspremont et de Dun, and Laurette, Gräfin von Saarbrücken, Emich was a first cousin of his mother-in-law. They had a son Emich and three daughters, all of whom would have progeny. On 15 March 1265 he married Margarethe von Hengebach, widow of Simon I, Graf von Sponheim, and the daughter of Eberhard III von Hengebach, Vogt von Zülpich, and Elisabeth von Hochstaden. This marriage did not result in progeny.
     "After his father's death in 1237 a dispute over the inheritance arose between him and his brother Friedrich III, which was resolved through the mediation of their maternal uncle, bishop Konrad V of Speyer, by the division of the inheritance. Emich received the Leiningen half of the castle of Landeck (first mentioned officially in this context) with its associated lands and the rights, and he became the founder of the short-lived line of Leiningen-Landeck. The family castle Altleiningen was jointly owned, but as Friedrich III did not wish to live there with his brother, about 1240 Friedrich built for himself the castle of Neuleiningen five kilometres to the northeast.
     "As well as the shared castle of Landeck, which was an imperial fief from 1222 at the latest, and was held jointly with the counts of Zweibrücken-Bitsch, Emich also received the castle of Maden and the villages of Waldhambach, Waldrohrbach, Eschbach, Ranschbach, Arzheim, Nussdorf, Dammheim, Queichheim, Mühlhausen, Servelingen, Eutzingen and Oberbornheim. Emich was a trusted follower of the counts palatine. In 1248 Pfalzgraf Otto II 'der Erlauchte', Herzog von Bayern, appointed him as guardian of the castle of Winzingen near Neustadt, and in 1277 Otto's grandson Pfalzgraf Rudolf I 'der Stammler', Herzog von Bayern, gave him the castle of Wachten as a mesne-fief.
     "In order to secure the castle of Landeck, in 1260 Emich built an additional fortification on the plain below it, in the area of the four villages Mühlhausen, Servelingen, Eutzingen and Oberbornheim. With the relocation of the residents of these villages, the community of Landau was established within a few years. In 1274 King Rudolf I von Habsburg granted the young community town rights and the right to hold a weekly market. To ensure the pastoral care of his new town, Emich in 1276 summoned Augustinian canons from the abbey of Steige in Zabern, Alsace. They established the 'Stiegerherren' religious community in Landau. Papal confirmation of the abbey 'Monasterium sancte Marie de Steiga', later called 'Monasterium beatae Virginis Mariae ad Scalas', occurred only in 1285 and 1289.
     "Emich died in 1281 and was succeeded by Emich V. When he was killed in battle eight years later (in 1289) and his young son died a few months after that, the line of Leiningen-Landeck died out. The castle of Maden reverted to the crown, and was given, along with the surrounding villages, by King Rudolf I in 1290 to his nephew (by marriage) Otto III von Ochsenstein, Landvogt im Elsass, who was also the father-in-law of Emich V; the other half of Landeck remained in the possession of the counts of Zweibrücken-Bitsch. However in 1291 Rudolf declared Landau an imperial city."¹

The wife of "Baldericus" was the daughter of "Wicmanni, cuius maiores magnam partem Germaniæ et maxime circa littoral oceani imperia tenebant"[92]. Thietmar records that the wife of Baldric encouraged her husband to arrange for the murder of "Count Wichmann" in 1016[93]. She is named "Adelæ uxoris Baldrici" in a later (undated) passage recording her death[94].

; NB: The lineage of the Vicomtes de Châteaudun is not clear. A 1998 email from Wilson [reprinted in a separate note, here] outlines the more-or-less received wisdom at that point. Med Lands and Racines et Histoire (Châteaudun) show two different lines for the early vicomtes. France Balade shows one line. Genealogics seems to skip the early generations. Wikipedia and Wikipédia (Fr.) offer slightly different lines. Settipani [2000] presents a synthesis of the various facts available into a more coherent picture. I show here what each source says about the generations in a direct line from Geoffroy III Vicomte de Châteaudun (b. ca 980 - d. 1040), backward. In each descent, I have underlined this individual.
     The Henry Project page on "Geoffroy (II)" (Geoffrey II/III, d. 1038/39, has a good discussion on the ancestry of this individual and of the vicomtes de Châteaudun. It is worth referring to that discussion to get more clarity on the issues and individuals I discuss here.


I. Med Lands: Med Lands shows to lines, running roughly 967-1080, but no connection is described between the two lines.
I. A. Med Lands Line 1 - This starts with a Geoffrey and runs 4 generations:
I.B. Med Lands Line 2 - This starts with a Rotrou and runs 4 generations:

II.A. Racines et Histoire Line 1 - 5 generations:
II.B. Racines et Histoire Line 1 - 5 generations:
III. France Balade: France Balade presents a fragmented view of the various Vicomtes from a Rampo (ca 860) down to Geoffroy III (d. 1040), in 4 or 5 generations.
IV. Genealogics: Genealogics only describes 2 generations:
V. Wikipedia: Wikipedia lists 10 Viscounts/Vicountesses of Châteaudun from Geoffrey I to Geoffrey III, some of whom are shown as related.
VI. Wikipédia (Fr.): Wikipédia (Fr.) lists 9 various Vicomtes (without Vicomtesses) covering 6 generations (initial dates are approximate reigns as Vicomte):
VII. Settipani [2000] uses the Latin names given in early sources. He outlines 4 generations from the so-called Gausfred I (Geoffrey I) to Gausfred III (Geoffrey III), plus an earlier ancestor, father of Geoffrey I. An image of a chart from Settipani's paper is attached to demonstrate the total structure he proposed.
VII.A.I. Gausfred (900-aft 942), Vicomte de Chartres
VII.A.2. Gausfred (925-986/9), Vicomte de Châteaudun, m. Hildegardis (ca 935 - aft ca 1020)

VII.A.5. Rotrocus (1005-aft 1051/60). Vicomte de Châteaudun, Comte de Perche m. Adelais de Bellême
Conclusion: Frankly, I am still trying to organize all of this information in my mind and have not decided on what I will finally show for the ancestors of Geoffrey III. What I currently have should be considered a draft work in progress. I accept the scholarship of Settipani, but am still trying to fit all of the pieces together and evaluate the information given in the other sources. GA Vaut.^{10,11,16,17,18,7,19,20}

      ; Per Wikipedia:
     "Emenon (or Emeno) was the Count of Poitou (828–839), Périgord (863–866), and Angoulême (863–866). He was most likely the son of Bernard I, Count of Poitiers, on the basis of onomastics.
     "It is unknown who nominated him count of Poitou, but it was probably Pepin I of Aquitaine, at whose side he had fought against the emperor Louis the Pious. During his tenure in Poitou, the Empress Judith was imprisoned in the abbey of Sainte-Croix at Poitiers for a while. The country of Herbauges was taken from him and given in benefice to Ragenold of Neustria. When Pepin died, Emenon joined the nobles who proclaimed Pepin II king. Louis invaded Aquitaine and took Poitiers, passing Christmas there in 839 and appointed Ranulf I in his place as count.
     "Emenon became count of Périgord and Angoulême in 863. He died in battle with Landri, Count of Saintes, who was also killed.
     "He married Sancha, daughter of Sancho II of Gascony, and left a son, Arnold, who became duke of Gascony. By a second wife, a daughter of Odo I, Count of Troyes, he left two sons: Adhemar (Aymer), who inherited Poitou and Angoulême, and Adalelm, who later became Count of Troyes."¹

     "EMENON ([810]-Rancogne 22 Jun 866, bur Angoulême Saint-Cybard). He was presumably installed as Comte in Poitou in [826/28] by Pepin I King of Aquitaine. "Himmoni comiti…" is named as present in the charter dated 9 Jun 828 which records a court held by Pepin I King of Aquitaine at Chasseneuil[208]. The abbot of Nouaillé exchanged property with "Hemenone" (no title added) by charter dated Sep [831/32][209]. He supported Pepin I King of Aquitaine against Emperor Louis I "le Pieux" and, after the death of the former (in 838), his son King Pepin II. The Chronicle of Adémar de Chabannes records that "Emeno…comes Pictavinus" declared "filium Pipini [rex Aquitanie filius imperatoris]" as king of Aquitaine after his father's death, in opposition to the emperor who invaded Poitou and expelled Emenon "et fratrem eius Bernardum"[210]. Emenon sought refuge with his brother Turpion in Angoulême. No primary source evidence has been found which confirms whether Emenon held any specific county between [839] and 863. The Sebastiani Chronicon records that "Muza quidem nomine Gothus, se ritu Mahamentiano…deceptus" invaded southern France and captured "duos…Francorum magnos duces…Sancionem et…Epulonem" and imprisoned them in chains[211]. Jaurgain considers that "Epulonem" was "Emenon Comte de Périgord"[212], although no evidence has been found that Emenon ruled in Périgord at the time. The Histoire Générale de Languedoc dates the event to 850[213]. Jaurgain considers that this is incorrect and redates the event to Oct 853[214]. The Sebastiani Chronicon records that Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks bought peace from Musa, after which the captives were released[215]. "Emmo" (no title added) donated property "in pago Pictavo in condito Vicovedonensi in loco…Mesgonne" to Nouaillé by charter dated Aug 857[216]. Comte d´Angoulême 863: the Chronicle of Adémar de Chabannes records that "Turpio" was killed by the Vikings and was succeeded in Angoulême by "Emeno frater eius"[217]. He died from wounds inflicted by his cousin Landry Comte de Saintes in a dispute over the castle of Bouteville[218]. The Chronicle of Adémar de Chabannes records that Emenon was killed two years after inheriting Angoulême by "Landrico Sanctionicensi comite" and buried "iuxta basilicam beati Eparchii"[219]. The Annales Engolismenses record the death "866 X Kal Iul" of "Emeno"[220]. The Chronicle of Saint-Maxence records that "Emeno frater eius [Turpio] Engolismæ comes" was wounded fighting "Landrico comite Santonensi", died eight days later "in castro Runconia" and was buried "iuxta basilicum beati Eparchii", leaving "parvulum filium Ademarum"[221]. The Adonis Continuatio records that "duo principes Aquitanici, Landricus et Imino" killed each other in battle in 866[222]. The Chronicon Aquitanicum names "Emeno Turpionis frater, Engolismæ comes" when recording his death[223]. m --- de Troyes, daughter of EUDES Comte de Troyes & his wife Wandilmodis ---. Her parentage and marriage are deduced from the charter dated Feb 893 under which her son "Adalelmus…comes" confirmed the donation of "Cadusciam fiscum" to the abbey of Montiéramey by "Rotbertus…comes avunculus noster"[224]. Count Emenon & his wife had two children:

     "Aznar (or Asnar) Sánchez (Basque: Aznar Antso, French: Aznard Sanche, Gascon: Aznar Sans) (died 836) was the Duke of Gascony[1] from 820. He was the supposed son of Sancho I of Gascony, though he has been identified with Aznar Galíndez I, Count of Aragon.
     "In 820, Lupo III Centule rose in rebellion against Carolingian authority and Berengar of Toulouse and Guerin of Provence marched against him, defeated him, and installed Aznar, a count of local provenance, in his place.[2] However, both Aragon and Navarre remained outside Carolingian control and western Gascony continued in revolt.
     "In 824, according to the Vita Hludowici, the counts Aznar and Aeblus (Eblus atque Asenarius committees) led an army against rebellious Pamplona. According to the Annales regni Francorum of Einhard, they (Aeblus et Asinarius comites) brought a great deal of wealth with them. They were defeated in a "second Roncesvalles"[3] and Pamplona gained its independence while the two counts were captured. Aznar, however, being a relative (consanguineus) of his captors, according to Astronomus, was released.[4]
     "Aznar fell out with Berengar's successor in the March of Gothia, Bernard of Septimania. In 828, Gascony revolted again.[5] In 836, Aznar was killed (a horrible death[3]) putting down a revolt in Gascony, which had been in tumult since his absence of 824, and was replaced by his brother Sancho, despite the objections of King Pepin.
