    Note: LUCIE de Laigle (-1 Apr after 1217). The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not yet been identified. "Ricardus vicecomes Sancte Susanne" granted rights to the hospice of Raillon, with the consent of "Lucie uxoris mee et Radulfi filii mei," by charter dated to [1165/77]. "Radulfus vicecomes Sancte Suzanne" donated the chapel of Raillon to the abbey of Angers Saint-Aubin, for the soul of "patris mei Richardi", with the consent of "matre mea Lucia vicecomitissa", by charter dated to [1200]. "Lucia vicecomitissa Sancte Suzanne" donated property to Notre-Dame de la Trappe for the soul of "domini R viri mei" with the consent of "R vicecomitis Belli Montis filii sui" by charter dated 1208. The necrology of Notre-Dame-de-Beauport records the death "Kal Apr" of "matris prime uxoris comitis Alani fundatoris nostri" [Alain [I] d’Avaugour, husband of Lucie’s daughter Petronille]. [According to Angot, Lucie married secondly as his second wife, Thibaut [III] Seigneur de Mathefelon, without citing any primary source on which this information is based]. He dates this supposed second marriage to "avant 1205," although his basis for this date is unclear and, if the marriage is correct, it would seem incorrect in light of the charter dated 1208 in which her supposed second husband is not named (see above). "Europäische Stammtafeln" names "Luce de l’Aigle dame de Loué et de Loiron" as the second wife of Thibaut [III] but does not specify her parentage or supposed first marriage. A difficulty is that "Europäische Stammtafeln" dates the death of Thibaut’s second wife to "16 Dec" (implying that this date is based on a necrology entry, which has not yet been identified), while the necrology of Notre-Dame de Beauport dates the death of Richard [I]’s widow to 1 Apr, as noted above. Until more information comes to light, it is suggested that this supposed second marriage be treated with caution. m [firstly] RICHARD [I] Vicomte de Beaumont, son of ROSCELIN, Vicomte de Beaumont, & his wife Constance [of England] (-25 Jan [1197/99], bur Etival). [m secondly as his second wife, THIBAUT [III] Seigneur de Mathefelon, son of THIBAUT [II],Seigneur de Mathefelon, & his wife Mathilde de Mayenne (-[May 1238/Dec 1239]).]

  2. Title: Wikiwand: Ermengarde de Beaumont
    Author: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Note: Ermengarde de Beaumont (c. 1170 – 11 February 1233) was Queen of Scotland as the wife of King William I. She is reported to have exerted influence over the affairs of state as queen, though the information of her is lacking in detail. Life Ermengarde was born c. 1170 to Richard I [fr], Viscount of Beaumont-le-Vicomte, Fresnay and Ste-Suzanne, and Lucie de l'Aigle [fr] (died aft. 1217). She married King William I of Scotland at the royal chapel at Woodstock Palace near Oxford in England on 5 September 1186 by Baldwin, Archbishop of Canterbury. The marriage was arranged by King Henry II of England, who was at the time the acknowledged overlord of Scotland: William considered her status beneath him, but agreed after Henry offered to pay for the entire wedding, land valued at 100 merks and 40 knight’s fees, and to return the castles that he had forfeited, one of them being Edinburgh. The chronicler Walter Bower described Ermengarde as ‘an extraordinary woman, gifted with a charming and witty eloquence’. Though William had many lovers before his marriage, he was reportedly never unfaithful to her after their wedding. The relatives of Ermengarde benefited from her status as queen. She is recorded to have presided with the Bishop of St. Andrews over a complex court case. In 1207, there was a complaint by a canon that a royal chaplain obtained the bishopric of Glasgow by bribing the King and the Queen. Queen Ermengarde is credited with mediating a renegotiation of the 1209 treaty, probably due to her husband’s incapacity. Due to the illness of William, Ermengarde took over some of his duties during his later years, and there is evidence that she wielded considerable influence in public affairs. In 1212, she accompanied William with their children to King John of England to secure the succession of their son Alexander. Ermengarde was described as distraught and lethargic over her husband’s death in 1214. As queen dowager, she devoted her time to the foundation of a Cistercian abbey at Balmerino in Fife. It was completed in 1229, and she often visited it as a guest with her son Alexander. She stayed at the abbey many times. Children . Margaret of Scotland (1193–1259). Married Hubert de Burgh, 1st Earl of Kent. . Isabella of Scotland (1195–1253). Married Roger Bigod, 4th Earl of Norfolk. . II of Scotland (1198–1249). . Marjorie of Scotland (1200–1244). Married Gilbert Marshal, 4th Earl of Pembroke. She died on 12 February 1233/1234, and was buried at St Edward of Balmerino Abbey, Fife.
