Biography

Weis, Ancestral Roots, says she was Aremburge, daughter of Henry, Count of Nevers, and Duke of Burgundy.

It appears that amongst the many merges leading to this article the name Vergy was taken, with a note placed to say it would be put in this way and marked uncertain.

In fact, this profile for the mother of Gervaise II, d. ca. 1095, lord of Château-du-Loir is the subject of an article on the Henry II website of Stewart and Farmerie. They state very simply:

"Elisabeth, whose parentage is unknown, was named by Gervais de Château-du-Loir as his mother in a charter of 1067×8 [Cart. Château-du-Loir 15-6], and she was still living in a charter dated about 1095 [Cart. Château-du-Loir 32], but deceased in a charter dated about 1097 [Cart. Château-du-Loir 32-3]."[1]

They give more information about her family on the article for her husband, Robert "Brochard" de Château-du-Loir.[2]

This Aramburge, really the wife of Dalmas I de Semur (see http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/burgdautun.htm#DamasISemurdied1048B) has been oddly conflated with Elisabeth, mother of Gervaise II de Château-du-Loir.

Since a profile for Elisabeth already exists (Loire-4, misnamed), I am removing all the incorrect connections to the Château-du-Loir family and keeping this as Aramburge - whose parentage should be unknown.

On the other hand, her mother was born in 958, so she could have been born as late as c1000, which would make her mother 42, and she would have been 44 at Gervais' birth.

Since there are two sons named Gervase/Gervaise here, perhaps they are the same person and his DOB is c1030, which makes the chronology plausible.

Son Gervaise was born when she was 64 years old.

If she was living as stated in the Bio, then she was unlikely to have been born in 980.

When LNAB is not known do we use the husband's?
