bullet General Notes:

Humbert III (1135-1189), surnamed the Blessed, was Count of Savoy from 1148 to 1189. His parents were Amadeus III of Savoy and Mahaut (or Mafalda, or Matilda) of Albon, the sister of Guy IV of Dauphinois. His first wife died young; his second marriage ended in divorce. Humbert gave up and became a Carthusian monk. However, the nobles and common people of Savoy begged him to marry yet again, which he reluctantly did. This third wife gave him two more daughters, and Humbert attempted to return to the monastic life yet again. Finally he was prevailed upon to marry for a fourth time, and this wife, Beatrice, produced the son who would ultimately succeed him. In 1188 he founded the Monastery of Sant'Antonio di Ranverso. [edit] Family Humbert married four times: Faidiva (Italian) (d. abt 1154) daughter of Alphonse I of Toulouse Gertrude of Flanders (m. abt 1155), whom he divorced and confined.

The Lost Kingdom of Burgundy Preceded by Amadeus IIICount of SavoySucceeded by Thomas IFROM LEO VAN DE PAS: BIOGRAPHY Umberto, known as 'the Blessed', was born on 1 August 1136, the son of Amadeo III, Comte de Savoie, and Mathilde d'Albon. In 1148, when only twelve years old, he succeeded his father as Count of Savoy. According to Christopher Cope (_The Lost Kingdom of Burgundy_), 'Humbert III, who reigned from1148 to 1189, was a man of irresolute spirit who was disconsolate at being born a prince and preferred the seclusion of a monastery. He only renounced his chosen state of celibacy so as to give his land an heir'. Before 3 January 1151 he married Faydiva whose origins are unknown. Faydiva died about 1154 and a year later he married Gertrud of Flanders. Umberto confined Gertrud for reasons unknown, but she was rescued by a cleric from Flanders, Robert, provost of Arie, who profited from his efforts through the high regard of her brother and later became bishop-elect of Cambrai. However on 4 October 1174, while still not consecrated, he was murdered at the behest of Jacques d'Avesnes. Before 1162 Umberto III and Gertrud were divorced. At this point he gave up his attempts at parenthood and became a Carthusian monk. However, the nobles and common people of Savoy begged him to marry yet again, which he reluctantly did. In 1164 he married Klementia von Zähringen and they became the parents of two daughters, whereupon Umberto attempted to return to the monastic life yet again. Klementia died between 1173 and 1175, and he was prevailed upon to marry for a fourth time. About 1175 he married Beatrice de Maçon and by her fathered his son and heir, Thomas. When Umberto III died on 4 March 1189, his son was not quite twelve. ---------------- Marriage 1 Faydiva b: ABT 1136 in France• Married: 3 JAN 1150/51 in 1st wife 1 Marriage 2 Gertrude of Flanders b: ABT 1140 in Alsace & Lorraine, France• Married: 1155 in 2nd wife - divorced bef. 1162 1 Marriage 3 Klementia von Zahringen b: ABT 1140 in Zahringen, Germany• Married: 1164 in 3rd wife 1Children1.
