Herbert IV, Count of Vermandois
Herbert IV of Vermandois (1028–1080), Count of Vermandois, was the son of Otto of Vermandois and Parvie (Pavia or Patia).[1]
Family and children
Herbert married Adele of Valois, daughter of Ralph IV of Valois[2] and Adele of Bar-sur-Aube. They had:
- Adelaide, Countess of Vermandois, (b. Circa 1062 - d. September 23, 1120) - married first to Hugh Magnus,[3] son of Henry I of France and younger brother of Philip I of France, and second to Renaud II, Count of Clermont-Beauvaisis.
- Odo I, Count of Vermandois[4] (b. circa 1064 - d. after 1085)
- Gerard (b. 1066 - d. ?)
Adelaide's husband, Hugh, inherited the countships of Vermandois and Valois upon Herbert's death.[lower-alpha 1][5]
Notes
- All of Herbert's lands would go to Hugh upon Herbert's death in 1080, giving the Capetians an important foothold.[5]
