Raoul [IV] de Beaumont Vicomte de Beaumont, Vicomte du Maine
(-After 1070) |
Raoul [IV] de Beaumont Vicomte de Beaumont, Vicomte du Maine
General Notes: RAOUL [IV] de Beaumont, son of RAOUL [III] de Beaumont Vicomte du Maine & his wife Eremburgis --- (-[11 Jun] [after 1070]). His parentage is confirmed by reading together the two documents which firstly confirm that Geoffroy was the son of "Roscelini vicecomitis" and secondly name "…Gaufridi fratris Radulfi vicecomitis…". Vicomte de Beaumont-sur-Sarthe, de Grand-Montevrault et du Lude. Vicomte du Maine. Seigneur de Preuilly. "Radulfo vicecomite, Guillelmo vicecomite, Erfredo vicecomite, Herveo vicecomite de Bleso…" witnessed a charter dated 1039 which records that "miles…Walterius…filius Hamelini de Lingaiis" was sentenced to relinquish property held from Geoffroy II "Martel" Comte d´Anjou for having killed "cognatum predicti comitis…Mauricium", Comte Geoffroy donating the property to La Trinité de Vendôme. "Radulfus vicecomes" donated "la foire de Notre-Dame" to La Trinité de Vendôme by charter dated to after 1070, witnessed by "Goffridus de Chamiliaco frater Berengarii…Tetbertus telonearius, Fulbertus teleonarius, Hubertus filius eius…". Although Hubert is named eighth in the list of witnesses, it is likely that "filius eius" applies to the donor not to the person whose name precedes Hubert´s in the list. If this is correct, the donor was Vicomte Raoul [IV]. The necrology of Le Mans Cathedral records the death "III Id Jun" of "Radulphus vicecomes", although it is not known to which Vicomte Raoul this refers.
