  • Notes 
    • The son of Etienne I (Tête-hardi) and Beatrix of Lorraine was count of Burgundy between 1127 and 1148. Previously, he had been titular count of Burgundy, 1102-1127 and count of Mâcon, 1127-1148 (with his brother William IV of Vienna). About 1130, he married Agatha (d. April 1147), daughter of Simon I, duke of Lorraine. He proclaimed independence from emperor Lothar II but was defeated by Conrad III and forced to relinquish all his lands east of the Jura. The name of the region Franche-Comté is derived from his title, franc-compte.

      His single daughter Beatrix (~1145 - 15 November 1184, became countess of Burgundy in 1148 and married Emperor Frederic Barbarossa in 1156. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
