CONON de Montaigu, son of GOZELO Comte de Montaigu & his wife Ermengarde [de Clermont] (-Dalhem 1 May 1106, bur Saint-Hubert). The Chronicle of Saint-Hubert names "Conone, Rodulfo, Widone et Henrico" as the sons of "Gozilo comes Bohaniæ" & his wife[190]. "Gosilonis comitis, Chimonis [Cunonis] et Rodulphi filiorum eius" witnessed an undated charter which records a donation to Brogne by "Heluidis"[191]. Comte de Montaigu. "Ermentrudis de Harenzey" donated "allodium…Sumey" to Ardenne Saint-Hubert, for the soul of "mariti mei Gozolonis", with the consent of "filiis meis…Cunone comite Rodulfo Guidone Joanne Henrico et fratribus meis Hezelino comite et Rainaldo et Balduino", by charter dated 1064[192]. "Ermengardis comitissa…ab avis atque atavis nobilibus" donated property "apud Villas Worommes et Longum-Campum [Woromes, Longchamp] …allodium de Rumines [Rummen]…allodium de Curinges [Curenge]…allodium…apud Gelmines et Berlinges…allodium de Brede [Brée] cum ecclesia…quos dedit Gerardo comiti" to the church of Saint-Bartholomée de Liège by charter dated 1078, witnessed by "tunc advocatus…comes Henricus de Dolvin-Castello…comes Cono de Monte-Acuto, Reginardus de Roden, Witmannus de Molenarche…"[193]. "…Cuono comes et filii eius…" witnessed the charter dated 1091 under which Henri de Verdun Bishop of Liège approved the foundation of Flône[194]. Albert of Aix records that "Cononem comitem de Monte Acuto, Baldwinum de Burch, Godefridum de Ascha" were sent by Godefroi de Bouillon for the first meeting with the emperor after the arrival of the crusading army in Constantinople, dated to end 1096[195]. Albert of Aix names "…Gozelo et frater eius Lamtbertus…cum patre suo Conone de Monte Acuto…" among those who took part in the siege of Nikaia, dated to mid-1097 from the context[196]. Seigneur de Rochefort. Avoué de Dinant. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the death in 1106 of "comes Cono de Monteacute" and his burial at Saint Hubert, specifying that he returned prosperous from overseas[197], presumably indicating his participation in the First Crusade. The Chronicle of Saint-Hubert records the death "Kal Mai apud castrum Dolhem" of "comes Cono" and his burial "Dinanum"[198].
m firstlyIDA de Fouron, daughter of LAMBERT [de Fouron] & his wife ---. The Chronicle of Saint-Hubert, interpolated in the Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines, names "Ida filia senioris Lamberti" as wife of "comes Cono de Monteacute"[199]. Roland says that “nous croyons découvrir le beau-père du comte Conon dans Lambert de Foron ou Fouron”[200].
m secondly as her second husband, IDA [de Boulogne], widow of HERMANN [von Malsen], daughter of [EUSTACHE [II] Comte de Boulogne & his wife Ida of Lotharingia]. Europäische Stammtafeln[201] shows Ida, wife [firstly] of Hermann [von Malsen] and [secondly of Conon de Montaigu], as a possible daughter of Comte Eustache II & his wife Ida. The only partial corroboration for this so far found is Orderic Vitalis who says that "Cono comes Alemannus" married "Duke Godfrey's sister"[202]. The primary source which confirms her name has not yet been identified.
Comte Conon & his [first/second] wife had four children
