  Hugues [IX]’s widow may have married secondly, as his second wife, Guillaume [III] Maingot Seigneur de Surgères. This second marriage is suggested by the document, dated (by Delisle) to [1209], under which "comes Augi" (Raoul de Lusignan "d’Exoudun" Comte d’Eu, see below) pledged his lands for his homage to Philippe II King of France, and that of "fratres sui comes Marchie et vicecomes Castri Eraudi"[372]. Assuming that this document is correctly dated, "vicecomes Castri Eraudi" at the time was Hugues de Surgères.
  
  A second marriage of Raoul’s mother would be the only way in which Hugues de Surgères could be correctly called "frater" of Hugues [X] de Lusignan and Raoul de Lusignan Comte d’Eu. If Orengarde/Douce can correctly be identified as the [second] wife of Hugues [IX], and mother of Raoul, it is likely that she was heiress of Exoudun which was transmitted to Raoul.]

   Note: HUGUES [IX] de Lusignan (-before 16 Mar 1169). "Ugo de Liziniaco" renounced rights over "terram…Ioarena" in favour of Nouaillé by undated charter, subscribed by "…Burgundie uxoris sue, Ugonis filii sui, Roberti filii sui, Gaufredi filii sui, Petri filii sui…"[367]. An undated charter of "Hugo de Lesignan filius Burgundiæ" records to his donation to the abbey of l'Absie with the consent of "patre meo Ugone Lezigniaci"[368]. "Hugues le Brun" donated property, for the souls of "sa femme Aurengardis, son fils Hugues, sa fille Ainordis et son frère Geoffroy", by charter dated 12 Nov 1166[369]. "Gaufridus de Lizigniaco" donated property to the abbey of l'Absie for the souls of "fratris mei Hugonis" with the consent of "Burgundie matre mea" dated "primie die post sepulturam Hugonis fratris mei…1169"[370]. m [firstly] ORENGARDE, daughter of ---. "Hugues le Brun" donated property, for the souls of "sa femme Aurengardis, son fils Hugues, sa fille Ainordis et son frère Geoffroy", by charter dated 12 Nov 1166[371]. [m secondly [as her first husband,] DOUCE, daughter of --- (-after 1168).] A charter dated 1168 records a donation of property to the Knights Hospitallers by "Hugo de Lusignan, Dulcia uxor et Alamanda filia eiusdem"[372]. This assumes that "Hugo de Lusignan" in this document can be identified with Hugues [IX] de Lusignan. Hugues [IX]’s widow may have married secondly, as his second wife, Guillaume [III] Maingot Seigneur de Surgères. This second marriage is suggested by the document, dated (by Delisle) to [1209], under which "comes Augi" (Raoul de Lusignan "d’Exoudun" Comte d’Eu, see below) pledged his lands for his homage to Philippe II King of France, and that of "fratres sui comes Marchie et vicecomes Castri Eraudi"[373]. Assuming that this document is correctly dated, "vicecomes Castri Eraudi" at the time was Hugues de Surgères. A second marriage of Raoul’s mother would be the only way in which Hugues de Surgères could be correctly called "frater" of Hugues [X] de Lusignan and Raoul de Lusignan Comte d’Eu. If Orengarde/Douce can correctly be identified as the [second] wife of Hugues [IX], and mother of Raoul, it is likely that she was heiress of Exoudun which was transmitted to Raoul.] Hugues [IX] & his [first] wife, Orengarde, had [two] children: a) HUGUES [X] "le Brun" de Lusignan (-Damietta 5 Nov 1219). b) AINORDIS . Hugues [IX] & his [second] wife, Douce, had [two] children: c) [ALAMANDA (-after 1168). d) RAOUL de Lusignan "d'Exoudun" ([1169]-Melle 1 May 1219, bur Exoudun). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Radulfum de Esselduno qui fuit comes Augi" as "Hugo Brunus fratrem natu maiorem" (presumably an error for "minorem"), adding that "horum pater Hugo de Lisegnen" had "fratres…Gaufridum, Henricum regem Cypri et Guidonem regem Ierosolimorum"[380]. "Maiorem" is presumably an error in this source for "minorem", or represents a transcription error: no scenario has been identified in which Raoul being the older brother is compatible with the other information relating to the Lusignan family. Raoul was not named in his father’s charter dated 12 Nov 1166, suggesting that he was born later. As the charter dated 1168 names Douce as wife of "Hugo de Lusignan", who can probably be identified as Hugues [IX], it is likely that Raoul from this supposed second marriage, after his supposed sister Alamanda. If this hypothesis is correct, Raoul must have been born in 1169, maybe posthumously. According to the Complete Peerage, "Esselduno" was "Exoudun, Deux-Sèvres, arrondissement Melle, canton La Mothe-Saint-Héray" not "Issoudun, Indre"[381], although the editor of the Monumenta Germanica series states that the place was "Issoudun, départ. Indre"[382]. Painter states that Exoudun was "a village to the southeast of St Maixent"[383]. He succeeded as Comte d'Eu, by right of his wife. The date of the marriage and Raoul’s succession as count is uncertain. It must have taken place before 1194 when "comes de Auco" paid scutage on land in Sussex[384]. "Radulfus Augensium comes" confirmed donations to Tréport, made by "antecessores mei comes…Robertus et Guillelmus filius eius et Henricus avus Henrici junioris et Johannes pater eiusdem Henrici et idem H.", by charter dated 1191[385], indicating that the marriage took place some years earlier assuming that this document is correctly dated. The Annals of Burton record that “Warinus de Clapiun senescallus Normanniæ” besieged “castellum de Denecurt”, on the orders of John King of England, adding that King Richard had given the castle to “Radulpho de Ysoudun comiti de Aueo, fratri Hugonis le Brun”, but that the siege was lifted by Philippe King of France before the arrival of King John[386]. The same passage is given by Roger of Hoveden[387]. "Hugo Brun com March et Rad com Augi" swore homage to John King of England, dated 28 Jan 1200[388]. Ralph of Coggeshall records that in 1202 John King of England made war against "comitem de Marchis…Hugonem cognomento Brun et fratrem eius comitem de Eu" who had rebelled against him "pro filia comitis Engolismi, quam Hugo prædictus prius affidaverat"[389]. - COMTES d'EU.
