  === Life Sketch ===
  Vulgrin or Wulgrin II was the Count of Angoulême from 1120 until his death on November 16, 1140. He was a son of Count William Taillefer III. He married Pontia de la Marche, his first wife, daughter of Roger the Poitevin and Almodis, the daughter of count Aldebert II of La Marche. They had only one son, William VI of Angoulême.
  
  After the death of his first wife, Wulgrin married Amable de Châtellerault and had three more children -- Fulk, Geoffrey "Martel," and an unnamed daughter. The troubadour Jaufré Rudel possibly might have been his son or son-in-law.
  
  Vulgrin retook Blaye from William X of Aquitaine in 1127 and reconstructed the castle there in 1140.

  I had found 1070 for Vulgrin's birthdate. The 38-year discrepancy MAY indicate a missed generation(?)...from Geni.com

   Author: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
   Publication: Name: https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Abbey_of_Saint-Cybard;
   Note: The Abbey of Saint-Cybard was a Benedictine monastery located just outside the northern city walls of Angoulême. According to Gregory of Tours in the Historia Francorum (VI, 8), the monastery was founded by Saint Eparchius in the sixth century. Little is known about the institution after its founding until 852, when King Charles the Bald confirmed a series of gifts to the abbey made by Abbot Launus, who was also the bishop of Angoulême. It suffered along with other monasteries and cities of the region during the Norman invasions of the ninth century, but adopted the Benedictine rule in 938. Between 1075 and 1087 Count Fulk of Angoulême handed Saint-Cybard over to the Cluniac abbey of Saint-Jean-d'Angély. While Saint-Jean's abbot was to appoint the abbot of Saint-Cybard, it was not until 1098 or 1099 when the monks of Saint-Cybard were forced to accept the arrangement. This relationship ended in 1161. In 1568, during the Wars of Religion, Protestants seized Angoulême and destroyed the monastery. There now remains only the north side of the abbey church along with sections of the chapels located in the northwest corner of what was once the cloister.
