Foundation for Medieval Genealogy

He was the son of Louis VI of France who took the name of his wife "de Courtenay"-

PIERRE de France ([1126]-Palestine 10 Mar [1180/10 Apr 1183]). William of Tyre names him as brother of Louis VII King of France, when recording his arrival in Palestine in 1179[406]. He succeeded as Seigneur de Courtenay, by right of his wife. "Petrus regis frater et Curtiniacensis dominus" donated property to the abbey of Fontaine-Jean by charter dated 1170, with the support of "uxor mea Isabel et primogenitus meus Petrus"[407]. The necrology of La Cour-Dieu records the death "VI Id Mar" of "Petrus de Curtiniaco"[408].

m (before 24 Nov 1160) ELISABETH de Courtenay, daughter and heiress of RENAUD Seigneur de Courtenay & his first wife Helvis de Donjon ([1140/45]-14 Sep after 1205). A Historia Regum Francorum records that "Petrus", son of Louis VI King of France, married "filiam Rainaldi de Curtiniaco cum?terra illius"[249].

The Continuator of Aimon of Fleury names "Petrus" as sixth son of "rex Ludovicus" and his wife "Adalaidem filiam Humberti comitis de Mauriana", adding that he married "filiam Rainaldi de Corteniaco" and had his land as there was no other surviving heir ("et terram ipsius habuit cum ea, quia non erat alius h?res superstes")[250]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "domina de Monte-Argisi fuit soror vel neptis illius [=Guilelmus?archiepiscopus Bituricensis]" as the wife of "Petro de Cortenaio regis Philippi patruo", "Monte-Argisi" being identified as "Montargis, d?partement Loiret" by the editor of the MGH edition[251].

"Petrus dominus Curtiniaci et uxor mea Elisabeth" confirmed donations made by "antecessorum nostrorum...dominus Milo et filii eius" to Fontaine-Jean abbey by charter dated 24 Nov 1160, witnessed by "Willelmus de Cortiniaco..."[252].

The 1166/67 Pipe Roll records "filie Regin de Crtinni" in London/Middlesex[253]. As discussed above in the introduction to section showing Elisabeth's father, it is possible that this entry relates to Elisabeth. "Petrus...Ludovici Francorum regis frater" granted privileges to Montargis, with the consent of "uxoris su? Helisabeth et Petri filii sui", by charter dated 1170[254].

"Petrus regis frater et Curtiniacensis dominus" confirmed donations to Fontaine-Jean abbey, with the consent of "uxor mea Ysabel et primogenitus meus Petrus", by charter dated 1170, witnessed by "Ex parte domini et pueri..."[255].

"Petrus de Curtiniaco frater regis" confirmed donations made to Fontaine-Jean abbey by "Guillelmus de Curtiniaco" on leaving for Jerusalem, with the consent of "uxoris mei Elisabeth", by undated charter[256].

"Petrus frater regis dominus de Monteargi et de Curtiniaco" donated property to Fontaine-Jean abbey on leaving for Jerusalem, with the consent of "uxor mea Ysabel et filius meus Petrus", by charter dated 1179[257].

"Elisabeth domina de Curteneto mater Petri comitis Nivernensis" donated money to Paris Notre-Dame, for the anniversary of "Petri mariti meio", and a further donation to the Knights Hospitallers after she died, by charter dated 1189[258]. Bouchet states that Elisabeth confirmed donations to "l' abbaye des Escharlis" in 1205 "qui est le dernier Acte qu'on touve d'elle"[259]. The necrology of the Eglise Cath?drale de Paris records the death "XVIII Kal Oct" of "Helysabeth mater Petri comitis Autisiodorensis"[260].

1. PIERRE [II] de Courtenay ([after 1158]-Epirus after Jun 1219).

Notes:

Barons rebelled against his rule under Simond de Montfort.

He was the King of England from 1216 to 1272. In the 24 years (1234-58) during which he had effective control of the government, he displayed such indifference to tradition that the barons finally forced him to agree to a series of major reforms, the Provisions of Oxford (1258).

The elder son and heir of King John (ruled 1199-1216), Henry was nine years old when his father died. At that time London and much of eastern England were in the hands of rebel barons led by Prince Louis (later King Louis VIII of France), son of the French king Philip II Augustus. A council of regency presided over by the venerable William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke, was formed to rule for Henry; by 1217 the rebels had been defeated and Louis forced to withdraw from England. After Pembroke's death in 1219 Hubert de Burgh ran the government until he was dismissed by Henry in 1232. Two ambitious Frenchmen, Peter des Roches and Peter des Rivaux, then dominated Henry's regime until the barons brought about their expulsion in1234. That event marked the beginning of Henry's personal rule.

Although Henry was charitable and cultured, he lacked the ability to rule effectively. In diplomatic and military affairs he proved to be arrogant yet cowardly, ambitious yet impractical. The breach between the King and his barons began as earlyas 1237, when the barons expressed outrage at the influence exercised over the government by Henry's Savoyard relatives. The marriage arranged (1238) by Henry between his sister, Eleanor, and his brilliant young French favourite, Simon deMontfort, Earl of Leicester, increased foreign influence and further aroused the nobility's hostility. In 1242 Henry's Lusignan half brothers involved him in a costly and disastrous military venture in France. The barons then began to demand avoice in selecting Henry's counsellors, but the King repeatedly rejected their proposal. Finally, in 1254 Henry made a serious blunder. He concluded an agreement with Pope Innocent IV (pope 1243-54), offering to finance papal wars in Sicily if thePope would grant his infant son, Edmund, the Sicilian crown. Four years later Pope Alexander IV (pope 1254-61) threatened to excommunicate Henry for failing to meet this financial obligation. Henry appealed to the barons for funds, but they agreedto cooperate only if he would accept far-reaching reforms. These measures, the Provisions of Oxford, provided for the creation of a 15-member privy council, selected (indirectly) by the barons, to advise the King and oversee the entireadministration. The barons, however, soon quarrelled among themselves, and Henry seized the opportunity to renounce the Provisions (1261). In April 1264 Montfort, who had emerged as Henry's major baronial opponent, raised a rebellion; thefollowing month he defeated and captured the King and his eldest son, Edward, at the Battle of Lewes (May 14, 1264), Sussex. Montfort ruled England in Henry's name until he was defeated and killed by Edward at the Battle of Evesham, Worcestershire, in August 1265. Henry, weak and senile, then allowed Edward to take charge of the government. After the King's death, Edward ascended the throne as King Edward I.

Henry married Countess Eleanor BERENGER, Of Provence on 14 Jan 1236-1237 in Canterbury Cathedral, Canterbury, Kent Co., England. Eleanor (daughter of Count Raymond BERENGER, V and Countess Beatrice DE SAVOIE) was born in 1222 in Aix-En-Provence, Bouches Du Rhone, France; died on 24 Jun 1291 in Amesbury, Wiltshire, England; was buried on 25 Jun 1291 in Amesbury, Wiltshire, England.
