[--- . m ---.] One child: a) RAOUL [Rodolphe] (-[1039/46]). Abbot of Saint-Germain de Montfaucon (Dormois) [984/88]. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium records that Adalbero Bishop of Verdun granted "abbatiam sancti Germani" to "Rodulfo nepoti suo", adding that he lived "ad tempora domni Richardi episcopi" (who is recorded as bishop between 1039 and 1046)[1289]. Vanderkindere suggests that Raoul was the son of Raoul [II] Comte d'Ivois (see COMTES de CHINY)[1290], but this appears to be based on little more than the common name as the text confuses him with his supposed father.
