From Medlands:

[GUILLAUME [de Hainaut], son of --- . Orderic Vitalis names "Guillelmi Hanoensis" as father of "Amalrici senioris de Monte-Forti", when recording a visit by Henri I King of France to Fécamp on the advice of Amaury, dated to [1032][444]. The accuracy of the information is uncertain, although presumably it cannot be dismissed entirely. Dion suggests that he was a cousin of Reginar [IV] Comte de Hainaut[445]. No other trace of such a person has yet been found.] m --- dame de Nogent, daughter of ---. Her marriage is confirmed by an apparently incomplete fragmentary passage of the mid-12th century continuation of the Historia of Monk Aimon which records that, during the reign of Robert II King of France, [name omitted] fortified "Sparnonem et Montifortem" and married "de Novigento dominam"[446]. One child:

a) AMAURY de Montfort (-after Apr 1052). An apparently incomplete fragmentary passage of the mid-12th century continuation of the Historia of Monk Aimon records that, during the reign of Robert II King of France, [name omitted] was granted “Benia” taken from “dominio Sancti Germani”, fortified "Sparnonem et Montifortem", married "de Novigento dominam" by whom he fathered "unum filium...Almaricum", who in turn was father of "duos filios...Simonem et Almaricum", Simon being the father of “Almaricum de Monteforti et Bertrandam comitissam Andegavensem”[447]. “Comes Ivo de Bello monte, Ebo miles, Guarinus miles Parisius, Almaricus miles de Monteforte” witnessed the charter dated 1022 under which Robert II King of France confirmed the possessions of the abbey of Saint-Mesmin de Micy[448]. “…Almarici de Monteforti…” witnessed the charter dated 1028 under which Robert II King of France confirmed the possessions of the abbey of Saint-Mesmin de Micy[449]. Robert II King of France confirmed the donation of "Manasses comes" to Chartres Notre-Dame by charter dated 4 Feb 1031, signed by "…Manasses comitis, Hilduini comitis fratris eius, filorum eius Manassis et Hilduini, Burcardo de Montemorenciaco, Evrardi filii Hilduini de Britoglio, Amalrici de Monteforti, Milonis de Caprosa…"[450]. He began the building of the castle of Montfort l'Amaury, which was finished by his son[451]. Orderic Vitalis records that Henri I King of France visited Fécamp, dated to [1032], on the advice of "Amalrici senioris de Monte-Forti, filii Guillelmi Hanoensis"[452]. "Ivo de Curba villa" dedicated "ecclesiæ Sanctorum Martyrum Gervasii et Protasii Cheonis" by charter dated to [1048/61], witnessed by “...Amalricus de Sparnoto, Simon et Mainerius filii eius...”[453].

Seigneur d'Epernon. - SEIGNEURS d’EPERNON. iii) [EVA (-23 Jan 1099, bur Bec abbey). Her possible affiliation is explained in the Complete Peerage[458]. The Chronicon Beccensis Abbatiæ records that "tempore S. Anselmi abbatis Becci tres matronæ nobiles…Basilia uxor Hugonis de Gornaco, et Amfrida neptis ipsius Basiliæ, et Eva uxor Guillelmi Crispini" entered Bec and lived at the abbey, adding that they died on three consecutive Sundays "Amfrida Basiliæ neptis...minor...ætate, virgo…IV Non Jan, qua sepulta…Basilia domina eius…XVII Kal Feb…tertia Eva…X Kal Feb...post mortem...viri sui Guillermi Crispini...Beccique usque ad finem vitæ...perseuerauit"[459]. Gurney dates the passage to [1099/1100][460]. m GUILLAUME Crispin, son of GILBERT [I] Crispin & his wife Gunnora --- (-Bec 8 Jan 1074).]

BE1883** (Montfort) reports that the first Almaric/Amaury/Aymer of Montfort was an illegitimate son of Robert, King of France. The only Kings Robert of France at or before this period were the Robert I (grandfather of Hugh Capet) who died in 923 and Robert II 'the Pious' (son of Hugh Capet) who lived 972-1031. The article in BE1883 says that this Almaric, son of King Robert, was great-grandfather of the Simon who married Amicia de Beaumont but gives no dates for any of the family until that Simon. As BE1883 appears to miss out some generations, we follow 'The Complete Peerage' (TCP). As the dates given in TCP are broadly consistent with other sources, and as the dates found in various web sites (eg 'Mathematical') report that the first Amaury de Montfort was born about 935, we believe that the first Amaury here reported could not have been a son of a King Robert of France. It is possible that he was a grandson of King Robert I but that has not been proved.

--------------------

On ne sait que peu de choses sur Guillaume de Hainaut, le premier seigneur de Montfort-l'Amaury. Les seules certitudes familiales sont qu'il était petit-fils du comte Régnier II et cousin de Régnier IV. Après les continuelles rébellions de Régnier III et son châtiment et son exil par Brunon de Cologne, les membres de la famille de Hainaut se réfugièrent à la cour de France.

Robert II le pieux, roi de France le chargea de bâtir deux forteresses en forêt d'Yvelines, afin de défendre le domaine royal contre le comte de Blois. L'une sera bâtie à Épernon, l'autre plus au nord, sur une butte naturelle dont il fera défricher les alentours, afin de permettre l'installation de paysans. Cette seconde forteresse prendra le nom de Montfort. Plusieurs de ses successeurs ayant le prénom d'Amaury, la nouvelle cité prendra par la suite le nom de Montfort-l'Amaury.

Il devint le châtelain de Montfort et, ayant épousé une fille d'Hugues de Beauvais, administrateur du pays d'Yvelines, lui succèdera lorsque ce dernier sera assassiné. Il réussit à rendre héréditaire la nouvelle seigneurie, et la transmettra à son fils Amaury Ier
