Biography

In 1095, Guigues contracted an exemplary marriage with the high-born Matilda, long thought to be the daughter of Edgar the Aetheling, but now thought more likely to have been a daughter of Roger I of Sicily, the Great Count, and his third wife, Adelaide del Vasto. Patrick Deret, however, alleges, on the basis of possible birth dates, that her mother must have been Roger's second wife, Eremburga of Mortain.[1]

Many conflicting sources of information regarding parents..Robert / Erembourge as well as Roger / Judith. Suggest disconnecting parents.

Apparently she was married 3x, 1st to Robert d'Eu, secondly to Raymond Talouse and third to Guiges

Father is Hauteville-41 and mother is Evreux-36.

I believe you need to request the Project Person(s) to change this.

I am unable to change the parents as they are Project Protected. I've tried changing.

The "Daughter of " field has father as ROBERT, should be ROGER ? (Hauteville-41)

(Mother seems OK?)

Shes's supposed to the be daughter of Roger Bosso not Robert Guiscard. Our own bio says this (twice) but she's connected to the wrong father.

Are we saying The Fox impregnated his brother's wife, and Mathilda is their bastard?

Or do we just have the wrong brother connected to the mother and daughter?

Husband and children do not seem to be right: "Mathilde de Hauteville ou Mathilde de Sicile, fille de Roger Ier, comte de Sicile, et de Judith d'Evreux, elle épouse de Raymond IV de Saint-Gilles († 1105), comte de Toulouse et sera la mère de Philippa de Toulouse."
