  === Life Sketch ===
  Alice (or Alix) de Vergy (1182–1252) was duchess consort of Burgundy as the second spouse of Odo III, Duke of Burgundy. She was the regent of Burgundy during the minority of her son 1218–28.
  
  Alice was the daughter of Hugh, Lord of Vergy, by Gillette de Trainel. In 1199, she married Odo III, Duke of Burgundy. Their children were:
  
  Joan (1200–1223), married Raoul II of Lusignan (died 1250), Seigneur d'Issoudun and Count of Eu.
  Alice (1204–1266), married Robert I (died 1262), Count of Clermont et Dauphin of Auvergne
  Hugh IV (1213–1272), his successor in the Duchy
  Beatrice (born 1216), married Humbert III of Thoire (died 1279)
  Biography
  The marriage was arranged in 1196 as a part of the peace between her father and Odo, who had been engaged in a long lasting conflict, and took place in 1199. As a dowry, she was granted several of her father's land, while Odo granted her father undisputed ownership of his land. At the death of Odo III in 1218, he was succeeded by his son with Alice, Hugh IV. As Hugh V was five years old, Alice became the regent of Burgundy during his minority with the title "Ducissa mater ducis Bourgogne".
  
  As regent, Alice worked to secure the inheritance of her son, and received the vassals oath of loyalty in the place of her son. In 1225, she managed to prevent a conflict with Dauphine. She acquired Beaune and Chalon through purchase. In 1227, she signed an alliance with Champagne against Nevers.
  
  In 1228, her son was declared of legal majority, and Alice resigned her regency and left court and retired to her dower lands. In 1231, however, it is noted that she acted as the representative of her son in successfully solving the conflict between the Vicomte de Dijon and the abbey of Citeaux. She spent her long retirement as an appreciated benefactor of religious communities.

   Note: 5. ALIX de Vergy (1182-Prenois-en-Montagne 15 Feb 8 Mar 1251, bur Abbaye de Cîteaux). A charter dated 1197 records that "Huo dominus Virgeii" donated property to the Templars, with the consent of "domina Gilla uxor dicti Huonis, Guillermus, Huo filii sui, Alais et Nicholeta filie sue"[368]. "Odo dux Burgundie" confirmed the donation by "domina Egidia, mater Alaidis uxoris mee ducisse Burgundie" to Colunge by charter dated Apr 1213[369]. Her origin is further deduced from the necrology of Cîteaux which records the death "XVI Kal Jan" of "Hugo Vergiaci pater ducissa"[370]. Her parentage is further confirmed by a charter dated 1 Sep 1236 in which “Hugo dux Burgundie” names “matrem meam et Guillermum de Vergeio, avunculum meum”[371]. She governed Burgundy on the death of her husband for her son until his majority in 1231. The necrology of Cîteaux records the death "XV Kal Mar" of "Alix ducissa Burgundie"[372]. The necrology of Autun Saint-Martin records the death “II Kal Mar” of “Aalis de Vergy, uxor Odonis ducis Burg., mater Hugonis ducis”[373]. m (Summer 1199) as his second wife, EUDES III Duke of Burgundy, son of HUGUES III Duke of Burgundy & his first wife Alix de Lorraine (1166-Lyon 6 Jul 1218, bur Abbaye de Cîteaux).

Duke Eudes III & his second wife had [three] children: 1. JEANNE de Bourgogne ([1200/10]-shortly after 1222, bur Abbaye de Foucarmont). The Chronique des comtes d´Eu, written in 1390, records that Alix Ctss d´Eu married "son filz [Raoul de Yssouldun] à la fille du duc de Bourgongne" in 1222, but that she died soon afterwards[417]. The primary source which confirms her name has not yet been identified. m (1222) as his first wife, RAOUL [II] de Lusignan Comte d'Eu, son of RAOUL de Lusignan dit d'Issoudun Comte d'Eu & his wife Alix Ctss d'Eu (-[1/2] Sep 1246). 2. HUGUES de Bourgogne (9 Mar 1213-château de Villaines-en-Duesmois, Côtes d'Or 27 or 30 Oct 1272, bur Abbaye de Cîteaux). The Annales S. Benigni Divionensis record the birth "Anno 1212 VII Idus Marcii, VI feria ante mediam noctem anno bisextili" of "Hugo filius Oddonis ducis de domina de Vergerie"[418]. He succeeded his father in 1218 as HUGUES IV Duke of Burgundy. - see below. 3. [[BEATRIX] de Bourgogne ([1216/18] or before-). It is unlikely that this person existed. Guichenon identifies the wife of Humbert [III] as “Béatrix de Bourgogne Dame de Montreal, d’Arbent et de Martigna en Bugey...fille d’Eudes III...et d’Alix de Vergy”, citing “deux sçavans historiens de nostre temps, mais ils la nomment mal, Alix de Bourgogne”[419]. Guichenon does not identify the “deux...historiens”, but Duchesne names “Alix de Bourgogne” (whom he associates with an epitaph at Cîteaux recording her death in 1266) as a daughter of Duke Eudes III (no marriage specified)[420], as does Père Anselme who says she died “fille en 1266” citing the same Cîteaux epitaph[421]. The chronology suggests that Guichenon is unlikely to be correct. Béatrix’s supposed father died in 1218, placing her birth in [1216/18] at the latest, while her supposed husband was still a minor in 1254: such an age difference between the wife and her husband would have been unusual. The family origin of a wife of Humbert is confirmed by the book of fees of the church of Lyon which records “domino de Villars et de Thoiré” holding “tota terra Montisregalis quæ est ultra Sagonam...usque ad Gebennas” which he received “in dotem suæ uxoris sororis ducis Burgundiæ”[422], but this may refer to Humbert’s wife Marguerite. m [as his first wife,] HUMBERT [III] Seigneur de Thoire et Villars, son of ETIENNE [II] Seigneur de Thoire et Villars & his wife Beatrix de Faucigny ([after 1235]-14 May 1301, bur Saint-Claude).]
