RAYMOND de Toulouse ([925/30]-[972]). The Codex de Roda names "Regemundus" as the son of "Pontio" and his wife "filia Garsie Sanzionis"[270]. Europäische Stammtafeln[271] omits Counts Raymond III and Raymond IV from its schema of the counts of Toulouse, showing Count Guillaume III "Taillefer" as the son of Count Raymond Pons. The chronological difficulties with this interpretation are evident, assuming that Raymond Pons's birth date is as estimated above and that Guillaume III is recorded as dying in 1037. Settipani sets out the background to this theory and proposes a robust new line of descent, the main elements of which are as shown here, supported by the primary sources which are quoted below[272]. Raymond presumably succeeded his father as RAYMOND III Comte de Toulouse, although there appears to be no mention of him with this title in primary sources[273]. [A charter dated 2 Jul 972 records a hearing at Nîmes by "Raymondus comes et marchio" relating to "ecclesiam Sancti Martini…in comitatu Agatense" in the presence of "…Siguinus vicecomes et Bernardus frater eius…"[274]. It is not known whether this document refers to Raymond [II] Comte de Rouergue or to Raymond III Comte de Toulouse.] A charter dated 972 records donations to the church of Saint-Michel de Gaillac, confirmed by "Regimundus comes", subscribed by "Gersindis comitissæ"[275]. m [GUNDINILDIS], daughter of ---. The wife of Comte Raymond III was named Gundinildis, assuming that her son Raymond was "…Raymundo filio Gundinildis nepoti meo" who is named in the codicil testament of "Gersindæ comitissæ", widow of Comte Raymond Pons[276]. Comte Raymond III & his wife had [four] children
