  4. 7.  Matilda

    Notes:

    Referred to in contemporary sources as "Queen" Matilda, leading to speculation as to which living queen she could have been. Variously proposed as a daughter of Edgar the Atheling (d. 1126) or of Roger I of Sicily (d. 1101), in the latter case by his third wife Adelaide of Savona. The case for Roger and Adelaide is plausible, although they are known to have had another daughter named Matilda who married Conrad II of Italy.

    William married Stephanie between 1049 and 1057. Stephanie died after 1092. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  4. 11.  Stephanie died after 1092.

    Notes:

    The Wikipedia article about William I, Count of Burgundy, asserts (as of 29 Jun 2015) two wives for him, an "Etiennette de Longuy" that he married circa 1040 and a "Stephanie" that he married before his death in 1087. The article then lists one set of children for Stephanie and another set of "children of either Stephanie or Etiennette". This appears to be confused. [Note that as of 1 May 2016, Wikipedia's article appears to have been cleaned up and corrected.]

    According to Ancestral Roots, William had one wife, whom they identify as "Stephanie, parentage NN". They then note: "Prof. David H. Kelly believes her parentage unproven (2003). De Vajay, in Annales de Bourgogne vol. 32 (1960) 258-261, identifies Stephanie (Etiennette) as dau. of Clemence de Foix & Albert de Longwy, Duke of Lorraine, d. 1048. Clemence is identified as dau. of Bernard I Roger, Comte de Foix, d. 1035, & Garsinde de Bigorre; & Bernard as son of Roger I de Carcassonne & wife Adelaide. Moriarty, The Plantagenet Ancestry of King Edward III and Queen Philippa, supplies pedigree charts for these families, but does not agree with de Vajay as to her identity. Garnier, Tableaux Généalogiques des Souverains de la France et de ses Grand Feudataires, table XXVIII, shows her as dau. of Raymond II, Count of Barcelona."
