A charter dated 3 Nov 1087 records an agreement between "comitem Bisinduni…Bernardum" and "fratrem eius Gauzfredum" under which the latter promised support if the counts of Roussillon, Peralada and Ampurias made war[705]. "Guillelmus Ugonis filius qui fuit Sancia femina" swore allegiance to "Bernardo comite filius qui fuisti Stephanies comitisse" by charter dated 18 Jul 1090[706].

m (contract 1 Oct 1107) --- de Barcelona, daughter of RAMON BERENGUER [III] Comte de Barcelona & his first wife María Rodríguez ([1105/06]-). The marriage contract of "Raymundus...Barchinonensis comes et marchio...filiam meam prolem Mariæ Ruderici" and “Bernarde Bisuldunensis comes” is dated 1 Oct 1107 and provides “Ausonensem comitatum” as dowry[711]. Secondary sources usually show this daughter as having married Roger [III] Comte de Foix as her second husband. For the reasons explained above (see Chapter 2), it is more likely that Comte Roger´s wife was a different daughter, born from her father´s third marriage.
