  • Notes 
    • THE ANCESTORS OF SIMON DE MONTFORT EARL OF LEICESTER (II)

      Simon de Montfort, son and heir. He is styled son of Amauri by Orderic. In 1058 he attested a charter of Henry I to St. Germain-des-Pres. About 1063 he took a leading part in persuading Duke William to recall Ralph de Tosny and Hugh de Grandmesnil from exile. On 13 Apr 1066 he was at Fecamp with William and his court, and attested an Act for the Abbey of Coulumbs. In the same year, at Meulan, Simon and his wife (unnamed) confirmed a gift by Richard FitzHerluin of certain lands in "villa sancti Hilari" to the same abbey, the said lands being part of the inheritance of Simon's wife. In 1067 Simon witnessed, in Paris, a charter of Philip I to St. Martin-des-Champs, and in 1072, with his son Amauri, attested another charter of the same king, confirming the gift to St. Magloire by "quidam miles de castro qui Montefortis vocatur Symon nomine" of the churches of St. Peter and St. Laurence situate "in eodem castro".

      Simon married three times. His 1st wife is said to have been Isabel, daughter of Hugh Bardoul, Seigneur of Brozes, and dame de Nogent; the name of the 2nd wife is unknown, and there is no proved issue of the 2nd marriage. By his 1st wife he had a son Amauri, who succeeded him, and a daughter Isabel or Elizabeth, who m. Ralph de Tosny. He m. 3rdly, Agnes, sister and in her issue heiress of William, 3rd Count of Evreux in Normandy, being also stepsister to Ralph de Tosny, and daughter of Richard, 2nd Count of Evreux. By her he appears to have had Richard and Simon, who, in turn succeeded their half-brother Amauri, and William (e); and he certainly had by her a son Amauri, who succeeded the last-named Simon, and a daughter Bertrade (f). Simon d. in or shortly after 1087, and was buried at Epernon. [Complete Peerage VII:Appendix D:710-1]

      (e) He [William] was a clerk, and attested in 1093 as William, son of Simon de Montfort.

      (f) She [Bertrade] m. as his 4th wife, Fulk IV, Count of Anjou. She deserted him for Philip I of France.
