| Notes |
- THE ANCESTORS OF SIMON DE MONTFORT EARL OF LEICESTER (VI)
Amauri de Montfort, brother and heir [of Simon] (a). In 1098 he aided William II against his brother's castles of Montfort and Epernon. After the death of William de Breteuil in 1103, Amauri supported the claim of William's Burgundian nephew, Renaud de Grancei, to succeed to his estates against that of his Breton nephew, William de Gael. On the death sp. in 1118 of his maternal uncle, William, Count of Evreux, Amauri claimed the comte, and when Henry I denied him the inheritance led a widespread revolt, and obtained possession of Evreux. In the following year Henry besieged Evreux, but his nephew Theobald, Count of Champagne, reconciled him and Amauri, who surrendered the castle to the King and thereupon received his uncle's comte. In 1123 Amauri joined the revolt of Waleran, Count of Meulan--subsequently husband of his daughter Agnes--against Henry. Next year Amauri fought at Bourghteroulde, and was captured when fleeing from the field by William de Grandcourt, who, rather than hand over his prisoner to captivity, went into exile with him, but before the end of the year Amauri made his peace with the King, and seems to have maintained friendly relations with him during the rest of the reign.
He m. 1stly, Richeude, daughter of Baldwin, Count of Hainault, from whom he separated. He m. 2ndly Agnes, niece of Stephen de Garlande, with whom he received Rochefort and Gournay-sur-Marne; her parentage is uncertain. She was probably the mother of his eldest son, Amauri, and certainly of his second son Simon, and of a daughter, Agnes (e). He d. 18 or 19 Apr, year unkown, and was buried at the Abbey of Haute-Bruyere, which he had founded. [Complete Peerage VII:Appendix D:713-4]
(a) Said by both Orderic and Robert de Torigni to be the son of Simon by Agnes, sister of William Count of Evreux.
(e) She, who had Gournay m. Waleran, Count of Meulan.
