GEOFFROY de Vendôme (-after [1136/39]). "Gaufridus de Castroduno" donated property to the abbey of Sainte-Trinité de Tiron with the consent of "uxore mea [unnamed] Hugone filio meo et duabus filiabus meis Aupazia et Helvissa atque nepote meo Gofredo filio comitis Vindocinensis" by charter dated 1119[1024]. "Goffridus comes Vindocinensis dictus Grisagonella" confirmed the possessions of La Trinité de Vendôme, for the soul of "uxoris mee Mahildis" and with the consent of "duo filii mei Johannis et Goffredus", by charter dated to [1102/29][1025]. "Goffridus filius Goffridi comitis qui Grisagonella vocabatur" renounced his claim to "terra…prope Villam-Dei" in favour of La Trinité de Vendôme, at the request of "Mahildis comitissæ, matrius illius Goffridi", by charter dated 21 Jan 1130, witnessed by "Goffridus comes, Bartholomeus, Wulgrinus frater eius…"[1026]. De Lavardin: "…Goffridus de Lavarzino filius eius, Heremias, Wlgrimus frater Bartholomei…" witnessed the charter dated 6 Nov 1134 under which "Goffridus comes Vindocinensis cognomento Grizagonella" confirmed the right of passage in the forest of Gâtines[1027]. "Goffridus de Lavarzino filius comitis Vindocini…" witnessed the charter dated to [1136/39] which records the spiritual association granted to "vicecomitissa Castriduni, Eloisa, cum filio suo Hugone, per castrum Vindocinum iter agens" by Marmoutier[1028]. Saint-Venant suggests that Geoffroy must have married "une fille de la maison de Lavardin...fille probablement d´Aimeric Gaymard et d´une de ses deux premières femmes" and "il eut probablement, comme dot de sa femme, une partie de la seigneurie de Lavardin"[1029]. This appears to be the only possible explanation for Geoffroy´s assumption of the Lavardin name and, from a chronological point of view, the proposal is acceptable given Geoffroy´s birth date, probably dated to [1108/15]. However, the seigneurie de Lavardin appears to have passed to the family of the comtes de Vendôme only in the mid-12th century, with the marriage of Agatha, supposed daughter of Aymeric "Gaimard" Seigneur de Lavardin, to Bouchard [VII] Comte de Vendôme (see below Chapter 15.J). Given this succession, it is difficult to imagine that Aymeric "Gaimard" would have ceded part of his rights in Lavardin as part of a marriage treaty with Geoffroy de Vendôme. On the other hand, it is difficult to conceive another explanation for Geoffroy being referred to as "de Lavarzino". One possibility is that Geoffroy was the same person as the second husband of Marie, widow of Aymeric "Gaimard" Seigneur de Lavardin, daughter of Geoffroy [Payen] & his wife ---.
