• Notes

  Also called Hugo Miles. His origins are unknown; our only real source for him is the 1088 chronicle of Hariulf, chronicler of Saint-Riquier, which notes that he never called himself Count of Ponthieu and that his son Enguerrand was the first to do so. He was an avocat of the abbey of Saint-Riquier and castellan of Abbeville. Many geneaological cites claim, without any obvious evidence, that he married Gisela, a daughter of Hugh Capet.
