About Simon II, seigneur de Montfort
SIMON II de Montfort (-24 or 25 Sep after 1104). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. He succeeded his brother in 1092 as "Seigneur de Montfort-l'Amaury". The necrology of Chartres cathedral records the death "VII Kal Oct" of "Symon de Monteforti". The necrology of Saint-Père-en-Vallée records the death "VIII Kal Oct" of "Simon miles de Monteforti". (Foundation for Medieval Genealogy)
He succeeded his brother Richard. In 1098, he had to sustain a siege led by William II Rufus, King of England (and guardian of Normandy in the absence of Robert Curthose gone to crusade), and successfully fought it off. He died without alliance and left Montfort to his brother.
