About Hugh II de Ponthieu, Count of Ponthieu

Hugues II, Comte de de Ponthieu (de Montreuil)

Family

From https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugh_II,_Count_of_Ponthie

Hugh II of Ponthieu was count of Ponthieu and lord of Abbeville, the son of Enguerrand I of Ponthieu. Evidently Hugh II was the half brother of Guy, who became the bishop of Amiens; Fulk, who became the abbot of Forest l'Abbaye; and Robert. However, it is possible that both Robert and Hugh II were the sons of Enguerrand's first wife, and Guy and Fulk the sons of a later wife that Enguerrand I married when he was in his forties.

Hugh II was married to Bertha of Aumale, Countess of Aumale.

They had at least five children:

  1. Enguerrand II who succeeded Hugh II as Count of Ponthieu;
  2. Robert;
  3. Hugh (whose name is inferred by evidence contained within The Carmen de Hastingae Proelio);
  4. Waleran,
  5. and a daughter who was married to William of Talou, the count of Arques, and uncle to duke William of Normandy (the Conqueror).
