   Note: --- de Mello . The identity of the father of Dreux de Mello, ancestor of the Mello family of Burgundy, has not been established. He was presumably a member of the Mello family which is set out above, but this cannot be confirmed. Dreux’s estimated birth date is consistent with Dreux having been a younger son of Dreux [II] Seigneur de Mello, born from his otherwise unrecorded second marriage to Agnes, but this is mere speculation. It is also possible that Agnes’s husband was an otherwise unrecorded brother of Dreux [II]. m as her second husband, AGNES, widow [firstly] of GUILLAUME de Garlande and [secondly] of --- Mauvoisin, daughter of ---. Her three marriages are indicated by the undated charter (dated to after 1166) under which "Robertus comes Mellenti" confirmed donations to Gournay Sainte-Marie made by "pater meus Galerannus comes et mater mea Agnes", in the presence of "Willelmus de Garlanda, Robertus Malusvicinus et Drogo de Mello fratres…"[1563]. The order of the brothers in the document presumably signals their relative seniority by age, and therefore the order of their mother’s three marriages. However, the charter dated 1177 under which [her son] “Drogo de Merloto” donated property from "Mintriaci" {Nitry} to La Charité-sur-Loire, for the souls of “fratris mei Roberti et Vuillelmi ibidem sepultorum”[1564], suggests that Robert Mauvoisin may have been older than Guillaume de Garlande. The order of Agnes’s marriages is not therefore clear. It is assumed that Agnes was heiress to territories in Burgundy which passed to her son Dreux. A different indication is provided by a pair of charters of La Charité-sur-Loire, dated 1177, relating to Nitry (identified as located in Tonnerre), which specify that the land was the fief of “Vuillermo de Merloto”[1565]. If the latter can be identified as Guillaume Seigneur de Mello (see below), this would suggest that the Burgundian properties were held by the Mello family before the marriage of Dreux’s parents. One child: a) DREUX de Mello ([1130/40]-3 Mar 1218, bur Saint-Bris). His estimated birth date is suggested by his estimated marriage date. Given that Dreux [I] was named in 1216, it is likely that he was born during the later part of the range. "Robertus comes Mellenti" confirmed donations to Gournay Sainte-Marie made by "pater meus Galerannus comes et mater mea Agnes", in the presence of "Willelmus de Garlanda, Robertus Malusvicinus et Drogo de Mello fratres, Willelmus Malusvicinus, Manasses frater eius…", by undated charter dated to after 1166[1566].
