About Robert I, Comte de Dreux

Robert Ier de Dreux

http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Ier_de_Dreux

Robert Ier de Dreux, dit le Grand, naquit vers 1125 et mourut le 11 octobre 1188, comte de Dreux, cinquième fils de Louis VI le Gros, roi de France et d'Adèle de Savoie.

En 1152, il reçut, en apanage, de son père, le comté de Dreux, dont il garda le titre jusqu'en 1184 quand il le cèda à son fils Robert II.

Par son mariage, en 1145, avec Harvise d'Évreux, il devint comte du Perche. À l'occasion de ses noces, en 1152, avec Agnès de Braine, dont il adopta les armes, il reçut le comté de Braine et les seigneuries de Fère-en-Tardenois, d'Arcy, de Nesles, de Longueville, de Quincy-sous-le-Mont, de Savigny-sur-Ardres et de Baudement.

Avec son frère le roi Louis VII, Robert Ier participa à la deuxième croisade en 1147 et à l'échec du siège de Damas en 1148. Avant la fin de la croisade, il revint en France, et fomenta une conspiration contre son frère Louis VII, en espérant lui prendre le pouvoir. Mais, son action fut contrecarrée avec succès par l'abbé Suger de Saint-Denis qui assurait la régence du royaume en l'absence du roi.

Au cours de la guerre civile anglaise (1135-1154), il combattit contre les Anglais et participa en 1154 au siège de Sées en Normandie;

Il mourut en 1188, et sera inhumé en l'Église abbatiale Saint-Yved de Braine. Ce prince accorda en 1180 une charte communale à la ville de Dreux, déjà depuis longtemps érigée en commune, et fonda la ville de Brie-Comte-Robert, ainsi appelée de son nom.

Marié en premières noces vers 1140 avec Agnès (1122 † 1143), fille d'Anseau de Garlande, comte de Rochefort, d'où :

1) Simon (1141-av.1182), seigneur de La Noue.

Marié en secondes noces vers 1144 avec Harvise (1118 † 1152) fille de Gautier d'Evreux, comte de Salisbury, d'où :

1) Adèle ou Alix (1145, morte après 1210), mariée après 1156 avec Valéran III, comte de Breteuil, puis en secondes noces en 1161 avec Guy II, seigneur de Châtillon, en troisièmes noces avec Jean Ier de Thorotte, mort en 1176 et en dernières noces avant 1183 avec Raoul Ier de Nesle, comte de Soissons, mort en 1235

Marié en troisièmes noces en 1152 avec Agnès, comtesse de Braine (1130 -† 1202/18) et fille de Guy de Baudemont, comte de Braine, d'où :

1) Robert II (1154 † 1218), comte de Dreux et de Braine

2) Henri (1155 † 1199), évêque d'Orléans

3) Alix (1156 -† ap. 1217), mariée en 1174 à Raoul Ier (v. 1134 - † 1191), seigneur de Coucy

4) Philippe (1158 † 1217), évêque de Beauvais, puis archevêque de Reims

5) Isabeau (1160 † 1239), mariée en 1178 à Hugues III de Broyes († 1199), seigneur de Broyes et de Châteauvillain

6) Pierre (1161 † 1186), seigneur de Bouconville-Vauclair en partie

7) Guillaume (1163 † ap.1189), seigneur de Braye-en-Laonnois, de Torcy-en-Valois et de Chilly

8) Jean (1164 † ap.1189)

9) Mamilie (1166 † 1200), religieuse à l'abbaye du Charme, au nord de Château-Thierry

10) Marguerite (1167 † ), religieuse à l'abbaye du Charme

Robert I of Dreux, (Robert I Capet) nicknamed the Great (c. 1123 – October 11, 1188), was the fifth son of Louis VI of France and Adélaide de Maurienne.[1] Through his mother he was related to the Carolingians and to the Marquess William V of Montferrat.

In 1137 he received the County of Dreux as an appanage from his father. He held this title until 1184 when he granted it to his son Robert II.

In 1139 he married Agnes de Garlande.[2] In 1145, he married Hawise of Salisbury.[3] By his third marriage to Agnes de Baudemont in 1152, he received the County of Braine-sur-Vesle, and the lordships of Fère-en-Tardenois, Pontarcy, Nesle, Longueville, Quincy-en-Tardenois, Savigny, and Baudemont.[4]

naar Frankrijk terug (1149); probeert dan met andere ontevredenen het regentschap over het koninkrijk aan abt Suger van Saint-Denis te ontrukken (wat hem echter niet gelukt), maar werkt na deze mislukte staatsgreep in later jaren trouw met de koning samen; sticht de naar hem genoemde stad Brie-Comte-Robert (ca. 1155) en geeft Dreux stadsrecht (1159); ondersteunt zijn broer die in de Languedoc tegen de Engelsen strijdt door een nevenaanval op Vexin-normand (d.w.z. de streek om Gisors) te doen; draagt het bewind over zijn gebied over aan zijn gelijknamige zoon (1184); sticht bij het Louvre een kerk, gewijd aan St.-Thomas (a Becket) van Canterbury met bijbehorende college voor de armere leerlingen van de kathedraalschool van Parijs (1188); graaf van Perche en van Braine.
