Raoul/Rodulf of Ivry

Ivry means "Hebrew"

RAOUL d'Ivry ([942/50]-after 1011). Guillaume of Jumièges records that “Richardus dux primus” consulted “Rodulfo comite suo equidem uterino fratre” about his succession before he died[1038]. It is assumed that he was born after the death of Comte Guillaume I, but it is unlikely that he was born much later than 945 if it is correct that the birth of his older half-brother Richard can be dated to [1032] (see the document NORMANDY DUKES). Comte [de Bayeux].

[m firstly ALBREDA, daughter of ? (murdered ). Orderic Vitalis records that “Albereda uxor Radulfi Bajocensis comitis” built “arcem de Ibreio” [Ivry] which “Hugo Bajocensis episcopus frater Johannis Rotomagensis archiepiscopi” defended “contra duces Normannorum multo tempore”, adding that it was reported that “præfata matrona” beheaded “Lanfredum architectum” after the castle was finished so that he could not build a similar structure for anyone else, and tried to expel her husband who killed her[1039]. It is not certain that “Albereda” in Orderic´s passage was the same person as “Eremburgam” in Guillaume de Jumièges. It is curious that Orderic does not state in his text that Hugues Bishop of Bayeux and Jean Archbishop of Rouen were the children of “Albereda”: the omission would best be explained if they were born from another marriage of Raoul and “Eremburgam” their mother was a different person from “Albereda”. If this speculation is correct, the chronology of the children of Raoul suggests that they were born later in his life, presumably from a second marriage if he did marry twice, in which case Albreda would have been his first wife.]

m [secondly] [as her first husband,] EREMBURGE [de Caville/Cacheville], daughter of ---. Guillaume of Jumièges records that “Rodulphum” married “Erembergam...natam in quadam villa Calcini territorii...Cavilla” and that they had “duos filios Hugonem postea episcopum Baiocensem et Ioannem Abricatensem...”[1040].

Comte Raoul & his [second] wife had four children:

i) HUGUES d'Ivry (-Oct 1049). Guillaume of Jumièges records that “Rodulphum” married “Erembergam...natam in quadam villa Calcini territorii...Cavilla” and that they had “duos filios Hugonem postea episcopum Baiocensem et Ioannem Abricatensem...”[1041]. Seigneur d'Ivry. Bishop of Bayeux 1015. Hugues had [two] illegitimate children by an unknown mistress or mistresses:

Guillaume of Jumièges records that one of the daughters of “Rodulphum” and his wife “Erembergam...natam in quadam villa Calcini territorii...Cavilla” married “Osberno de Crepon de qua natus est Willelmus filius Osberni”[1042]. "Willelmus et frater eius Osbernus" donated "terram…Herchembaldus vicecomes et Turoldus, comitissæ Gunnoris camerarius" and revenue from land received by "Croco et Erchembaldus filii eiusdem Erchembaldi vicecomitis" to the abbey of Sainte-Trinité at Rouen, with the consent of "matre eorum Emma", for the soul of "patris sui Osberni cognomento Pacifici", by charter dated to [1035/60], signed by "…Godeboldi, Daneboldi, Ansfredi filii Osberni, Gisleberti filii Turgisii…"[1043]. "Osberni frater eius [Willelmi]" witnessed a charter dated 1038 or after[1044]. After her husband died, she became abbess of St Amand at Rouen[1045]. m OSBERN de Crepon, son of HERFAST & his wife --- (-murdered [1038/42]).

iii) daughter . Guillaume of Jumièges records that another daughter of “Rodulphum” and his wife “Erembergam...natam in quadam villa Calcini territorii...Cavilla” married “Richardus de Bello-fago” by whom she had “Robertum qui ei successit et filias plures, quarum una iuncta est Hugoni de Monte-forti matrimonio”[1046]. m RICHARD de Beaufour, son of ---. Richard & his wife had [four or more] children:

(a) ROBERT de Beaufour . Guillaume of Jumièges records that another daughter of “Rodulphum” and his wife “Erembergam...natam in quadam villa Calcini territorii...Cavilla” married “Richardus de Bello-fago” by whom she had “Robertum qui ei successit et filias plures, quarum una iuncta est Hugoni de Monte-forti matrimonio”[1047]. Guillaume of Jumièges records that “Robertus...de Bellofago” towards the end of his life became a monk at Bec, where “filii eius Richardus et Willelmus” also entered religion[1048]. m ---. The name of Robert´s wife is not known. Robert & his wife had two children:

(1) RICHARD de Beaufour . “Robertus...de Bellofago” towards the end of his life became a monk at Bec, where “filii eius Richardus et Willelmus” also entered religion[1049].

(b) daughter . Guillaume of Jumièges records that another daughter of “Rodulphum” and his wife “Erembergam...natam in quadam villa Calcini territorii...Cavilla” married “Richardus de Bello-fago” by whom she had “Robertum qui ei successit et filias plures, quarum una iuncta est Hugoni de Monte-forti matrimonio”[1051]. m as his first wife, HUGUES [II] de Montfort, son of HUGUES [I] de Montfort-sur-Risle & his wife --- (-1088 or after).

iv) JEAN d'Ivry (-1079). Guillaume of Jumièges records that “Rodulphum” married “Erembergam...natam in quadam villa Calcini territorii...Cavilla” and that they had “duos filios Hugonem postea episcopum Baiocensem et Ioannem Abricatensem...”[1053]. Orderic Vitalis records that “Albereda uxor Radulfi Bajocensis comitis” built “arcem de Ibreio” [Ivry] which “Hugo Bajocensis episcopus frater Johannis Rotomagensis archiepiscopi” defended “contra duces Normannorum multo tempore”[1054]. Considering the date of his death, Jean must have been considerably younger than his brother Hugues. One possibility is that he was born from a second unrecorded marriage of his mother. Bishop of Avranches 1061. Orderic Vitalis records that “Lanfrancum Cadomensem abbatem” was appointed to succeed after the death of “Maurilius Rotomagensis archiepiscopus” but refused the task and pressed for the appointment of “Joannem Abrincatensium præsulem...filius Radulphi comitis Bajocensium...frater...uterinus Ricardi senioris ducis Normannorum” (who had held that post for seven years and three months, and was archbishop for ten years), even travelling to Rome to obtain Papal consent[1055]. Archbishop of Rouen 1069. Guillaume of Jumièges records the death “V Id Aug” 1067 of “Maurilius...archiepiscopus Rotomagensis” and the appointment of “Ioannes Abrincatinæ urbis præsul...comitis Rodulphi filius” as his successor[1056]. The Chronicon S. Stephani Cadomensis records that "Joannes filius Rodulfi comitis fratris Ricardi" succeeded as Archbishop of Rouen in 1069, having been bishop of Avranches for seven years and three months[1057]. Orderic Vitalis records the death “XVI Kal Aug” 1077 of "Hugo Lexoviensis episcopus", the subsequent dispute about his place of burial with “Johanni archiepiscopo” who refused to accept the king´s decision at Rouen and, while returning from there by mule, was struck down by a violent seizure, after which he survived for two years without being able to speak[1058]. The Chronicon S. Stephani Cadomensis records the death in 1079 of "Joannes Rothomag. Archiepiscopus"[1059]. Orderic Vitalis records the death in 1079 of “Johannes archiepiscopus” after governing for eight years and his burial "in baptisterio basilicæ ad Aquilonem", and also records his epitaph[1060].

From Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodulf_of_Ivry

Rodulf of Ivry (Rodolf, Raoul, comte d'Ivry) (died c. 1015)[1] was a Norman noble, and regent of Normandy during the minority of Richard II.[2]

Life

Rodolf was the son of Eperleng, a rich owner of several mills at Vaudreuil, and of his wife Sprota, who by William I, Duke of Normandy had been mother of Richard I of Normandy, making Rodolf the Duke's half-brother.[3][4]

When Richard died in 996, Rodulf took effective power during the minority of his nephew, Richard II of Normandy,[5] alongside the boy's mother, Gunnor.

According to William of Jumièges he had to quell dual rebellions in 996, of peasants and nobility; against the former he cut off feet and hands.[6] He arrested the chief aristocratic rebel Guillaume, comte d'Exmes.

Count

The counts of the duchy of Normandy were in place from around the year 1000; Rodulf is the first whose title can be attested by a document (of 1011).[7] Pierre Bauduin following David Bates[8] states that territorial designations for these titles came in only in the 1040s.[9] Contemporary sources, and Dudon de Saint-Quentin, speak only of Rodulf as "count", never "of Ivry"; this is found only in later writers. Ordericus Vitalis, for example, calls him count of Bayeux. Historians now consider this erroneous, following the later Robert de Torigni, who makes Rodulf count of Ivry.

In strategic terms, Ivry was on the boundary of the duchy of Normandy, by an important crossroads on a roman Road, by the valley of the River Eure. Over some decades the Normans had struggled there against the forces of the county of Blois, after its control had reached Dreux. This position mattered for the assertion of domination of the south-east of the Évrecin.

Consistently, the duchy may have conceded to the county in the direction of the county of Hiémois and towards Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Family

He married Aubrée de Canville, who died before 1011.[3][10] His children were:

• Hugues, bishop of Bayeux (c. 1011-1049)[10]
• Jean d'Ivry, bishop of Avranches (1060–1067) then archbishop of Rouen (1067–1079)[10]
• Emma, who married Osbern de Crépon (Osbern the Steward), mother of William FitzOsbern[10]
• Raoul[10]
• Daughter of unknown name, who married Richard de Beaufou[10]

Raoul, comte d'Ivry († ap. 1015), était le demi-frère du duc de Normandie Richard Ier

La tutelle de Raoul d'Ivry sur le duc de Normandie

En 996, le duc Richard Ier de Normandie meurt. Son successeur, Richard II, étant mineur, Raoul d'Ivry assure la transition en tant que demi-frère du défunt. François Neveux estime : " selon toute apparence, c'est lui qui détenait la réalité du pouvoir pendant la minorité "[1]. Une place qu'il partage sûrement avec la veuve de Richard Ier, la duchesse Gunnor.

Le chroniqueur Guillaume de Jumièges nous apprend qu'il est chargé de mater les deux rébellions qui éclatent à la fin du Xe siècle en Normandie, d'une part celle de la paysannerie et d'autre part, celle d'une partie de l'aristocratie. Contre les paysans, il emploie la manière forte en faisant couper les pieds et les mains des meneurs[2]. Contre les nobles, il dirige une expédition qui conduit à l'arrestation du principal rebelle, Guillaume, comte d'Exmes.

Le comte Raoul

Au sein du duché de Normandie, les premiers comtes apparaissent autour de l'an 1000. Raoul est le premier attesté par un acte (1011). Il possède peut-être ce titre depuis longtemps car Robert de Torigni fait remonter cette attribution au temps du duc Richard Ier (donc avant 996). Le comté qui lui fut dévolu donna lieu à un débat parmi les historiens. Comme le rappelle le chercheur Pierre Bauduin à la suite de David Bates[3], " les désignations territoriales pour les comtes apparaissent seulement dans les années 1040 "[4]. Les actes d'époque et Dudon de Saint-Quentin présentent simplement Raoul comme " le comte Raoul " et jamais comme " Raoul d'Ivry " ou " le comte d'Ivry ". Ce sont des écrivains postérieurs qui attribuent un comté précis au demi-frère de Richard Ier : Orderic Vital le désigne par exemple comme comte de Bayeux. Mais les historiens considèrent que le moine se trompe. Ils préfèrent suivre un autre chroniqueur tardif, Robert de Torigni, qui décrit Raoul comme comte d'Ivry.

Son installation revêt une importance stratégique : Ivry se situe à la limite du duché, sur un carrefour important entre une voie romaine et la vallée de l'Eure. Depuis plusieurs dizaines d'années, la région fait l'objet d'une lutte d'influence entre le duc de Normandie et le comte de Blois-Chartres qui vient de prendre pied à Dreux. En plaçant un membre de sa famille à Ivry, Richard Ier (ou Richard II) conforte son autorité sur la marge sud-est de l'Évrecin.

Cette stratégie de consolidation explique sans doute les autres concessions ducales en faveur de Raoul dans l'Hiémois et en Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Le château d'Ivry

L'actuel château d'Ivry-la-Bataille aurait été construit vers 970 par Eremberga (ou Alberède), femme de Raoul, sur les plans de l'architecte Lanfred qu'elle aurait ensuite, selon la légende, fait assassiner afin qu'il emporte avec lui ses secrets techniques. Le comte Raoul aurait tué plus tard sa femme pour garder le contrôle de la forteresse[5]. Le château, entièrement arasé en 1424 par les anglais et revenu au jour à partir de 1968 grâce à des fouilles.

Rodulf of Ivry From Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodulf_of_Ivry

Rodulf of Ivry (Rodolf, Raoul, comte d'Ivry) (died c. 1015) was a Norman noble, half-brother of Richard I of Normandy.

Regent in Normandy

Duke Richard I died in 996. His successor Richard II of Normandy being young, Rodulf took effective power[1], alongside Richard's widow Gunnor.

According to William of Jumièges he had to quell dual rebellions in 996, of peasants and nobility; against the former he cut off feet and hands.[2]. He arrested the chief aristocratic rebel Guillaume, comte d'Exmes.

Count

The counts of the duchy of Normandy were in place from around the year 1000; Rodulf is the first whose title can be attested by a document (of 1011). Pierre Bauduin following David Bates[3] states that territorial designations for these titles came in only in the 1040s.[4]. Contemporary sources, and Dudon de Saint-Quentin , speak only of Rodulf as "count", never "of Ivry"; this is found only in later writers. Ordericus Vitalis, for example, calls him count of Bayeux. Historians now consider this erroneous, following the later Robert de Torigni, who makes Rodulf count of Ivry.

In strategic terms, Ivry was on the boundary of the duchy of Normandy, by an important crossroads on a roman Road, by the valley of the River Eure. Over some decades the Normans had struggled there against the forces of the county of Blois, after its control had reached Dreux. This position mattered for the assertion of domination of the south-east of the Évrecin.

Consistently, the duchy may have conceded to the county in the direction of the county of Hiémois and towards Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Family

He was son of Eperleng, master miller of Vaudreuil, and of Sprota, widow of William I, Duke of Normandy; he therefore shared his mother with Richard I.

He married Eremberga, who died before 1011, then Aubrée de Canville. His children were

• Hugues, bishop of Bayeux (c. 1011-1049)
• Jean d'Ivry, bishop of Avranches (1060-1067) then archbishop of Rouen (1067-1079)
• Emma, who married Osbern de Crépon (Osbern the Steward), mother of William FitzOsbern
• Raoul
• Daughter of unknown name, who married Richard de Beaufou.

Raoul d'Ivry
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raoul_d'Ivry

Raoul d'Ivry1 († ap. 1011), fils d'Asperleng (Esperleng) de Pîtres (fermier des moulins du Vaudreuil) et de Sprota (mariée en premières noces à Guillaume Ier de Normandie), il était le demi-frère du duc de Normandie Richard Ier.

La tutelle de Raoul d'Ivry sur le duc de Normandie

En 996, le duc Richard Ier de Normandie meurt. Son successeur, Richard II, étant mineur, Raoul d'Ivry assure la transition en tant que demi-frère par sa mère du défunt. François Neveux estime : « selon toute apparence, c'est lui qui détenait la réalité du pouvoir pendant la minorité »2. Une place qu'il partage sûrement avec la veuve de Richard Ier, la duchesse Gunnor.

Le chroniqueur Guillaume de Jumièges nous apprend qu'il est chargé de mater les deux rébellions qui éclatent à la fin du xe siècle en Normandie, d'une part celle de la paysannerie et d'autre part, celle d'une partie de l'aristocratie. Contre les paysans, il emploie la manière forte en faisant couper les pieds et les mains des meneurs3. Contre les nobles, il dirige une expédition qui conduit à l'arrestation du principal rebelle, Guillaume, comte d'Exmes.

Le comte Raoul

Au sein du duché de Normandie, les premiers comtes apparaissent autour de l'an 1000. Raoul est le premier attesté par un acte (1011). Il possède peut-être ce titre depuis longtemps car Robert de Torigni fait remonter cette attribution au temps du duc Richard Ier (donc avant 996). Le comté qui lui fut dévolu donna lieu à un débat parmi les historiens. Comme le rappelle le chercheur Pierre Bauduin à la suite de David Bates4, " les désignations territoriales pour les comtes apparaissent seulement dans les années 1040 "5. Les actes d'époque et Dudon de Saint-Quentin présentent simplement Raoul comme " le comte Raoul " et jamais comme " Raoul d'Ivry " ou " le comte d'Ivry ". Ce sont des écrivains postérieurs qui attribuent un comté précis au demi-frère de Richard Ier : Orderic Vital le désigne par exemple comme comte de Bayeux. Mais les historiens considèrent que le moine se trompe. Ils préfèrent suivre un autre chroniqueur tardif, Robert de Torigni, qui décrit Raoul comme comte d'Ivry.

Son installation revêt une importance stratégique : Ivry se situe à la limite du duché, sur un carrefour important entre une voie romaine et la vallée de l'Eure. Depuis plusieurs dizaines d'années, la région fait l'objet d'une lutte d'influence entre le duc de Normandie et le comte de Blois-Chartres qui vient de prendre pied à Dreux. En plaçant un membre de sa famille à Ivry, Richard Ier (ou Richard II) conforte son autorité sur la marge sud-est de l'Évrecin.

Cette stratégie de consolidation explique sans doute les autres concessions ducales en faveur de Raoul dans l'Hiémois et en Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Le château d'Ivry

L'actuel château d'Ivry-la-Bataille aurait été construit vers 970 par Eremberga (ou Alberède), femme de Raoul, sur les plans de l'architecte Lanfred qu'elle aurait ensuite, selon la légende, fait assassiner afin qu'il emporte avec lui ses secrets techniques. Le comte Raoul aurait tué plus tard sa femme pour garder le contrôle de la forteresse6. Le château, entièrement arasé en 1424 par les Anglais a fait l'objet de fouilles à partir de 1968.

Unions et descendance7

Avec Éremburge († vers 1011):

• Raoul
• Une fille dont le nom est resté inconnu mais qui fut mariée à Richard de Beaufou.

Raoul/Rodulf of Ivry

From Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodulf_of_Ivry

Rodulf of Ivry (Rodolf, Raoul, comte d'Ivry) (died c. 1015)[1] was a Norman noble, and regent of Normandy during the minority of Richard II.[2]

Life

Rodolf was the son of Eperleng, a rich owner of several mills at Vaudreuil, and of his wife Sprota, who by William I, Duke of Normandy had been mother of Richard I of Normandy, making Rodolf the Duke's half-brother.[3][4]

When Richard died in 996, Rodulf took effective power during the minority of his nephew, Richard II of Normandy,[5] alongside the boy's mother, Gunnor.

According to William of Jumièges he had to quell dual rebellions in 996, of peasants and nobility; against the former he cut off feet and hands.[6] He arrested the chief aristocratic rebel Guillaume, comte d'Exmes.

Count

The counts of the duchy of Normandy were in place from around the year 1000; Rodulf is the first whose title can be attested by a document (of 1011).[7] Pierre Bauduin following David Bates[8] states that territorial designations for these titles came in only in the 1040s.[9] Contemporary sources, and Dudon de Saint-Quentin, speak only of Rodulf as "count", never "of Ivry"; this is found only in later writers. Ordericus Vitalis, for example, calls him count of Bayeux. Historians now consider this erroneous, following the later Robert de Torigni, who makes Rodulf count of Ivry.

In strategic terms, Ivry was on the boundary of the duchy of Normandy, by an important crossroads on a roman Road, by the valley of the River Eure. Over some decades the Normans had struggled there against the forces of the county of Blois, after its control had reached Dreux. This position mattered for the assertion of domination of the south-east of the Évrecin.

Consistently, the duchy may have conceded to the county in the direction of the county of Hiémois and towards Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Family

He married Aubrée de Canville, who died before 1011.[3][10] His children were:

Hugues, bishop of Bayeux (c. 1011-1049)[10] Jean d'Ivry, bishop of Avranches (1060–1067) then archbishop of Rouen (1067–1079)[10] Emma, who married Osbern de Crépon (Osbern the Steward), mother of William FitzOsbern[10] Raoul[10] Daughter of unknown name, who married Richard de Beaufou[10] References

Rodulf of Ivry From Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodulf_of_Ivry Rodulf of Ivry (Rodolf, Raoul, comte d'Ivry) (died c. 1015) was a Norman noble, half-brother of Richard I of Normandy.

Regent in Normandy

Duke Richard I died in 996. His successor Richard II of Normandy being young, Rodulf took effective power[1], alongside Richard's widow Gunnor.

According to William of Jumièges he had to quell dual rebellions in 996, of peasants and nobility; against the former he cut off feet and hands.[2]. He arrested the chief aristocratic rebel Guillaume, comte d'Exmes.

Count

The counts of the duchy of Normandy were in place from around the year 1000; Rodulf is the first whose title can be attested by a document (of 1011). Pierre Bauduin following David Bates[3] states that territorial designations for these titles came in only in the 1040s.[4]. Contemporary sources, and Dudon de Saint-Quentin , speak only of Rodulf as "count", never "of Ivry"; this is found only in later writers. Ordericus Vitalis, for example, calls him count of Bayeux. Historians now consider this erroneous, following the later Robert de Torigni, who makes Rodulf count of Ivry.

In strategic terms, Ivry was on the boundary of the duchy of Normandy, by an important crossroads on a roman Road, by the valley of the River Eure. Over some decades the Normans had struggled there against the forces of the county of Blois, after its control had reached Dreux. This position mattered for the assertion of domination of the south-east of the Évrecin.

Consistently, the duchy may have conceded to the county in the direction of the county of Hiémois and towards Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Family

He was son of Eperleng, master miller of Vaudreuil, and of Sprota, widow of William I, Duke of Normandy; he therefore shared his mother with Richard I.

He married Eremberga, who died before 1011, then Aubrée de Canville. His children were

Hugues, bishop of Bayeux (c. 1011-1049) Jean d'Ivry, bishop of Avranches (1060-1067) then archbishop of Rouen (1067-1079) Emma, who married Osbern de Crépon (Osbern the Steward), mother of William FitzOsbern Raoul Daughter of unknown name, who married Richard de Beaufou. Source

Ce sont des écrivains postérieurs qui attribuent un comté précis au demi-frère de Richard Ier : Orderic Vital le désigne par exemple comme comte de Bayeux. Mais les historiens considèrent que le moine se trompe. Ils préfèrent suivre un autre chroniqueur tardif, Robert de Torigni, qui décrit Raoul comme comte d'Ivry.

Son installation revêt une importance stratégique : Ivry se situe à la limite du duché, sur un carrefour important entre une voie romaine et la vallée de l'Eure. Depuis plusieurs dizaines d'années, la région fait l'objet d'une lutte d'influence entre le duc de Normandie et le comte de Blois-Chartres qui vient de prendre pied à Dreux. En plaçant un membre de sa famille à Ivry, Richard Ier (ou Richard II) conforte son autorité sur la marge sud-est de l'Évrecin.

Cette stratégie de consolidation explique sans doute les autres concessions ducales en faveur de Raoul dans l'Hiémois et en Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Le château d'Ivry

L'actuel château d'Ivry-la-Bataille aurait été construit vers 970 par Eremberga (ou Alberède), femme de Raoul, sur les plans de l'architecte Lanfred qu'elle aurait ensuite, selon la légende, fait assassiner afin qu'il emporte avec lui ses secrets techniques. Le comte Raoul aurait tué plus tard sa femme pour garder le contrôle de la forteresse6. Le château, entièrement arasé en 1424 par les Anglais a fait l'objet de fouilles à partir de 1968.

Rodulf of Ivry (Rodolf, Raoul, comte d'Ivry) (died c. 1015)[1] was a Norman noble, and regent of Normandy during the minority of Richard II. Rodolf was the son of Eperleng, a rich owner of several mills at Vaudreuil, and of his wife Sprota, who by William I, Duke of Normandy had been mother of Richard I of Normandy, making Rodolf the Duke's half-brother.

RAOUL d'Ivry ([942/50]-after 1011). Guillaume of Jumièges records that “Richardus dux primus” consulted “Rodulfo comite suo equidem uterino fratre” about his succession before he died[1038]. It is assumed that he was born after the death of Comte Guillaume I, but it is unlikely that he was born much later than 945 if it is correct that the birth of his older half-brother Richard can be dated to [1032] (see the document NORMANDY DUKES). Comte [de Bayeux].

Orderic Vitalis records that “Albereda uxor Radulfi Bajocensis comitis” built “arcem de Ibreio” [Ivry] which “Hugo Bajocensis episcopus frater Johannis Rotomagensis archiepiscopi” defended “contra duces Normannorum multo tempore”, adding that it was reported that “præfata matrona” beheaded “Lanfredum architectum” after the castle was finished so that he could not build a similar structure for anyone else, and tried to expel her husband who killed her[1039]. It is not certain that “Albereda” in Orderic´s passage was the same person as “Eremburgam” in Guillaume de Jumièges. It is curious that Orderic does not state in his text that Hugues Bishop of Bayeux and Jean Archbishop of Rouen were the children of “Albereda”: the omission would best be explained if they were born from another marriage of Raoul and “Eremburgam” their mother was a different person from “Albereda”. If this speculation is correct, the chronology of the children of Raoul suggests that they were born later in his life, presumably from a second marriage if he did marry twice, in which case Albreda would have been his first wife.]

From Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodulf_of_Ivry

Rodulf of Ivry (Rodolf, Raoul, comte d'Ivry) (died c. 1015)[1] was a Norman noble, and regent of Normandy during the minority of Richard II.[2]

Life

Rodolf was the son of Eperleng, a rich owner of several mills at Vaudreuil, and of his wife Sprota, who by William I, Duke of Normandy had been mother of Richard I of Normandy, making Rodolf the Duke's half-brother.[3][4]

When Richard died in 996, Rodulf took effective power during the minority of his nephew, Richard II of Normandy,[5] alongside the boy's mother, Gunnor.

According to William of Jumièges he had to quell dual rebellions in 996, of peasants and nobility; against the former he cut off feet and hands.[6] He arrested the chief aristocratic rebel Guillaume, comte d'Exmes.

Count

The counts of the duchy of Normandy were in place from around the year 1000; Rodulf is the first whose title can be attested by a document (of 1011).[7] Pierre Bauduin following David Bates[8] states that territorial designations for these titles came in only in the 1040s.[9] Contemporary sources, and Dudon de Saint-Quentin, speak only of Rodulf as "count", never "of Ivry"; this is found only in later writers. Ordericus Vitalis, for example, calls him count of Bayeux. Historians now consider this erroneous, following the later Robert de Torigni, who makes Rodulf count of Ivry.

In strategic terms, Ivry was on the boundary of the duchy of Normandy, by an important crossroads on a roman Road, by the valley of the River Eure. Over some decades the Normans had struggled there against the forces of the county of Blois, after its control had reached Dreux. This position mattered for the assertion of domination of the south-east of the Évrecin.

Consistently, the duchy may have conceded to the county in the direction of the county of Hiémois and towards Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Family

He married Aubrée de Canville, who died before 1011.[3][10] His children were:

Hugues, bishop of Bayeux (c. 1011-1049)[10] Jean d'Ivry, bishop of Avranches (1060–1067) then archbishop of Rouen (1067–1079)[10] Emma, who married Osbern de Crépon (Osbern the Steward), mother of William FitzOsbern[10] Raoul[10] Daughter of unknown name, who married Richard de Beaufou[10] References

Raoul, comte d'Ivry († ap. 1015), était le demi-frère du duc de Normandie Richard Ier

La tutelle de Raoul d'Ivry sur le duc de Normandie

En 996, le duc Richard Ier de Normandie meurt. Son successeur, Richard II, étant mineur, Raoul d'Ivry assure la transition en tant que demi-frère du défunt. François Neveux estime : " selon toute apparence, c'est lui qui détenait la réalité du pouvoir pendant la minorité "[1]. Une place qu'il partage sûrement avec la veuve de Richard Ier, la duchesse Gunnor.

Le chroniqueur Guillaume de Jumièges nous apprend qu'il est chargé de mater les deux rébellions qui éclatent à la fin du Xe siècle en Normandie, d'une part celle de la paysannerie et d'autre part, celle d'une partie de l'aristocratie. Contre les paysans, il emploie la manière forte en faisant couper les pieds et les mains des meneurs[2]. Contre les nobles, il dirige une expédition qui conduit à l'arrestation du principal rebelle, Guillaume, comte d'Exmes.

Le comte Raoul

Au sein du duché de Normandie, les premiers comtes apparaissent autour de l'an 1000. Raoul est le premier attesté par un acte (1011). Il possède peut-être ce titre depuis longtemps car Robert de Torigni fait remonter cette attribution au temps du duc Richard Ier (donc avant 996). Le comté qui lui fut dévolu donna lieu à un débat parmi les historiens. Comme le rappelle le chercheur Pierre Bauduin à la suite de David Bates[3], " les désignations territoriales pour les comtes apparaissent seulement dans les années 1040 "[4]. Les actes d'époque et Dudon de Saint-Quentin présentent simplement Raoul comme " le comte Raoul " et jamais comme " Raoul d'Ivry " ou " le comte d'Ivry ". Ce sont des écrivains postérieurs qui attribuent un comté précis au demi-frère de Richard Ier : Orderic Vital le désigne par exemple comme comte de Bayeux. Mais les historiens considèrent que le moine se trompe. Ils préfèrent suivre un autre chroniqueur tardif, Robert de Torigni, qui décrit Raoul comme comte d'Ivry.

Son installation revêt une importance stratégique : Ivry se situe à la limite du duché, sur un carrefour important entre une voie romaine et la vallée de l'Eure. Depuis plusieurs dizaines d'années, la région fait l'objet d'une lutte d'influence entre le duc de Normandie et le comte de Blois-Chartres qui vient de prendre pied à Dreux. En plaçant un membre de sa famille à Ivry, Richard Ier (ou Richard II) conforte son autorité sur la marge sud-est de l'Évrecin.

Cette stratégie de consolidation explique sans doute les autres concessions ducales en faveur de Raoul dans l'Hiémois et en Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Le château d'Ivry

L'actuel château d'Ivry-la-Bataille aurait été construit vers 970 par Eremberga (ou Alberède), femme de Raoul, sur les plans de l'architecte Lanfred qu'elle aurait ensuite, selon la légende, fait assassiner afin qu'il emporte avec lui ses secrets techniques.

Rodulf of Ivry From Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodulf_of_Ivry Rodulf of Ivry (Rodolf, Raoul, comte d'Ivry) (died c. 1015) was a Norman noble, half-brother of Richard I of Normandy.

Regent in Normandy

Duke Richard I died in 996. His successor Richard II of Normandy being young, Rodulf took effective power[1], alongside Richard's widow Gunnor.

According to William of Jumièges he had to quell dual rebellions in 996, of peasants and nobility; against the former he cut off feet and hands.[2]. He arrested the chief aristocratic rebel Guillaume, comte d'Exmes.

Count

The counts of the duchy of Normandy were in place from around the year 1000; Rodulf is the first whose title can be attested by a document (of 1011). Pierre Bauduin following David Bates[3] states that territorial designations for these titles came in only in the 1040s.[4]. Contemporary sources, and Dudon de Saint-Quentin , speak only of Rodulf as "count", never "of Ivry"; this is found only in later writers. Ordericus Vitalis, for example, calls him count of Bayeux. Historians now consider this erroneous, following the later Robert de Torigni, who makes Rodulf count of Ivry.

In strategic terms, Ivry was on the boundary of the duchy of Normandy, by an important crossroads on a roman Road, by the valley of the River Eure. Over some decades the Normans had struggled there against the forces of the county of Blois, after its control had reached Dreux. This position mattered for the assertion of domination of the south-east of the Évrecin.

Consistently, the duchy may have conceded to the county in the direction of the county of Hiémois and towards Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Family

He was son of Eperleng, master miller of Vaudreuil, and of Sprota, widow of William I, Duke of Normandy; he therefore shared his mother with Richard I.

He married Eremberga, who died before 1011, then Aubrée de Canville. His children were

Hugues, bishop of Bayeux (c. 1011-1049) Jean d'Ivry, bishop of Avranches (1060-1067) then archbishop of Rouen (1067-1079) Emma, who married Osbern de Crépon (Osbern the Steward), mother of William FitzOsbern Raoul Daughter of unknown name, who married Richard de Beaufou. Source

Raoul d'Ivry http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raoul_d'Ivry

Raoul d'Ivry1 († ap. 1011), fils d'Asperleng (Esperleng) de Pîtres (fermier des moulins du Vaudreuil) et de Sprota (mariée en premières noces à Guillaume Ier de Normandie), il était le demi-frère du duc de Normandie Richard Ier.

La tutelle de Raoul d'Ivry sur le duc de Normandie

En 996, le duc Richard Ier de Normandie meurt. Son successeur, Richard II, étant mineur, Raoul d'Ivry assure la transition en tant que demi-frère par sa mère du défunt. François Neveux estime : « selon toute apparence, c'est lui qui détenait la réalité du pouvoir pendant la minorité »2. Une place qu'il partage sûrement avec la veuve de Richard Ier, la duchesse Gunnor.

Le chroniqueur Guillaume de Jumièges nous apprend qu'il est chargé de mater les deux rébellions qui éclatent à la fin du xe siècle en Normandie, d'une part celle de la paysannerie et d'autre part, celle d'une partie de l'aristocratie. Contre les paysans, il emploie la manière forte en faisant couper les pieds et les mains des meneurs3. Contre les nobles, il dirige une expédition qui conduit à l'arrestation du principal rebelle, Guillaume, comte d'Exmes.

Le comte Raoul

Au sein du duché de Normandie, les premiers comtes apparaissent autour de l'an 1000. Raoul est le premier attesté par un acte (1011). Il possède peut-être ce titre depuis longtemps car Robert de Torigni fait remonter cette attribution au temps du duc Richard Ier (donc avant 996). Le comté qui lui fut dévolu donna lieu à un débat parmi les historiens. Comme le rappelle le chercheur Pierre Bauduin à la suite de David Bates4, " les désignations territoriales pour les comtes apparaissent seulement dans les années 1040 "5. Les actes d'époque et Dudon de Saint-Quentin présentent simplement Raoul comme " le comte Raoul " et jamais comme " Raoul d'Ivry " ou " le comte d'Ivry ". Ce sont des écrivains postérieurs qui attribuent un comté précis au demi-frère de Richard Ier : Orderic Vital le désigne par exemple comme comte de Bayeux. Mais les historiens considèrent que le moine se trompe. Ils préfèrent suivre un autre chroniqueur tardif, Robert de Torigni, qui décrit Raoul comme comte d'Ivry.

Son installation revêt une importance stratégique : Ivry se situe à la limite du duché, sur un carrefour important entre une voie romaine et la vallée de l'Eure. Depuis plusieurs dizaines d'années, la région fait l'objet d'une lutte d'influence entre le duc de Normandie et le comte de Blois-Chartres qui vient de prendre pied à Dreux. En plaçant un membre de sa famille à Ivry, Richard Ier (ou Richard II) conforte son autorité sur la marge sud-est de l'Évrecin.

Cette stratégie de consolidation explique sans doute les autres concessions ducales en faveur de Raoul dans l'Hiémois et en Lieuvin (forêt du Vièvre).

Le château d'Ivry

L'actuel château d'Ivry-la-Bataille aurait été construit vers 970 par Eremberga (ou Alberède), femme de Raoul, sur les plans de l'architecte Lanfred qu'elle aurait ensuite, selon la légende, fait assassiner afin qu'il emporte avec lui ses secrets techniques. Le comte Raoul aurait tué plus tard sa femme pour garder le contrôle de la forteresse6. Le château, entièrement arasé en 1424 par les Anglais a fait l'objet de fouilles à partir de 1968.

Unions et descendance7

Avec Éremburge († vers 1011):

Hugues, évêque de Bayeux (v. 1011-1049) Emma (-1069), épouse d'Osbern de Crépon. Elle devient à la fin de sa vie abbesse de Saint-Amand de Rouen. Raoul Une fille dont le nom est resté inconnu mais qui fut mariée à Richard de Beaufou. Avec Aubrée de Canville (Caville/Cacheville):

Jean d'Ivry, évêque d'Avranches (1060-1067) puis archevêque de Rouen (1067-1079)
