  HUGUES [XII] "le Brun" de Lusignan, son of HUGUES [XI] "le Brun" de Lusignan Sire de Lusignan, Comte de la Marche et d'Angoulême & his wife Isabelle Ctss d’Angoulême ([1221]-killed in battle Fariskur, Egypt 6 Apr 1250, bur Abbaye de la Couronne, Charente). His paternity is recorded by Matthew Paris. He succeeded as Comte de Penthièvre in 1236, by right of his wife. “Hugo de Lezigniaco comes Marchie et Engolismi et Y…regina Anglie…comitissa” recorded their peace agreement with Louis IX King of France by charter dated [1] Aug 1242 which names “filii nostri…Hugo Brunus, Guido et Gaufridus de Lezigniaco milites”. "Hugo Lebrun, filius comitis Marchie primogenitus, et dominus Lambalie et Hyolandis uxor sua" noted the end of the excommunication of "Guidonem de Argenteio dominum de Plancoit" in a charter dated 1246. The testament of "Hugo de Lezignen comes Marchie", dated 8 Aug 1248, appoints as his heirs "Hugonem Brunum comitem Angolisme, Guidonem, Gaufridum, Willelmum de Vallencia, milites, et Ademarum, clericum, filios meos". He succeeded his father in 1248 as Sire de Lusignan, Comte de la Marche et d'Angoulême. He joined the crusade in 1248. Referred to by Matthew Paris as "Hugo Brunus comes de Marchia cuius pater Paulo ante obit apud Damiatan" when he records his death in the same battle in which Louis IX King of France was captured.
