Note: Eremburga of Mortain (Eremburge de Mortain)[1] was the second wife of Count Roger I of Sicily and thus the second Sicilian countess.[2][3] She is very obscure and details of her life are almost unknown to us today.
Her father was either William, Count of Mortain[4] or Robert d'Eu, and if he was Eremburga's father, then her mother was called Beatrix.
Roger married Eremburga in 1077 and she bore him several daughters and one son. Sources about her children give much contradictory information.
Eremburga's children were:
Matilda, wife of Count Ranulf II of Alife and mother of Robert[5]
Flandina, wife of Henry del Vasto, whose sister Adelaide del Vasto married Roger after Eremburga's death
Constance (Matilda), wife of Conrad II of Italy
Judith, who founded a Cluniac abbey at Sciacca[6]
Mauger, Count of Troina
Son of Flandina was Count Simon of Policastro [it].
It is possible that Felicia of Sicily, mother of Stephen II of Hungary, was Eremburga's daughter,[7] and Geoffrey, Count of Ragusa was maybe Eremburga's son. Another possible Eremburga's child was Princess Muriel.
According to Goffredo Malaterra, Eremburga died in 1089.

- Title: Wikipedia - History of Mortain
Publication: Name: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortain;
Note: Mortain (French pronunciation: [mɔʁtɛ̃]) is a former commune in the Manche department in Normandy in north-western France. On 1 January 2016, it was merged into the new commune of Mortain-Bocage.[2]
Mortain is situated on a rocky hill rising above the gorge of the Cance, a tributary of the Sélune.
In the Middle Ages Mortain was the head of an important county (comté), reserved for the reigning house of Normandy (see List of Counts of Mortain). Around 1027 it was established for Robert, who was probably an illegitimate son of Richard I of Normandy. He was succeeded by William Warlenc ("the waning") who was probably his son. In or about 1049 Duke William took it from William Warlenc and bestowed it on his half-brother, Robert, thenceforth known as "count of Mortain," whose vast possessions in England after the Conquest (1066) gave name to "the small fees of Mortain," which owed less feudal service than others. Robert was succeeded as count by his son William, Count of Mortain, who rebelled against Henry I, was captured at the battle of Tinchebrai (1106) and forfeited his possessions. Some years later, Henry bestowed the comtéship on his nephew Stephen, who became king in 1135. On Stephen's death (1154) his surviving son William became count of Mortain, but when William died childless in 1159 the title was resumed by Henry II. On the accession of Richard I (1189) he granted it to his brother John, who was thenceforth known as count of Mortain until he ascended the throne (1199). With his loss of Normandy the comté was lost, but after the recapture of the province by the House of Lancaster, Edmund Beaufort, a grandson of John of Gaunt, was created count of Mortain and so styled till 1441, when he was made earl of Dorset.

Publication: Name: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89remburge_de_Mortain;
Note: Éremburge de Mortain ou Éremburge de Sicile (en italien : Eremburga di Mortain ou Eremburga di Sicilia), née vers 1060 et morte vers 1088, est une aristocrate normande devenue comtesse de Sicile.
Biographie
Selon Geoffroi Malaterra, Éremburge est la fille d'un certain Guillaume, comte de Mortain1 (Eremburga, filia Guillelmi, comitis Mortonensis)2 ; il pourrait s'agir de Guillaume Guerlenc qui, banni du duché de Normandie pour avoir comploté contre le duc Guillaume, s'était exilé en Italie méridionale3. On a également attribué sa paternité à Robert d'Eu.
Vers 1077, elle épouse Roger de Hauteville, comte de Sicile.
Éremburge meurt entre 1087 et 1089 ; elle est inhumée dans l'Abbaye Sainte-Trinité de Mileto4, en Calabre.
