Notes for Béatrix d’Albon
[ES, III, 738] [44]. Comtesse d'Albon et de Grenoble, Dauphinée de Viennois. Seems like she was the only child of Guigues V and Beatrix von Monferrato.
She had three husbands, of whom Hugues was the second. First was Albéric Taillefer (de Toulouse), adn third was Hugues I Sire de Coligny-le-Neuf.
Notes for Hugues III (Spouse 1)
[ES II:20]. Became the Comte d’Albon through his wife. By this connection to the Albon territories (in the Empire) Hugh gained a powerful position as the vassal of both the French and German kings [63]. King Philip of France got alarmed and invaded the duchy in 1186. The Duchy of Burgundy is different from the County of Burgundy, France-Comté, and the Kingdom of Burgundy. All very confusing.
