RAINARD (-Rome ----, bur Rome). Seigneur de Pithiviers. 960. The Vita of St Gregory Archbishop of Nikopolis records "Reynardo iam defuncto…ante fores Romanæ ecclesiæ sepulto" as the father of "Odolricum"[457]. m firstly ---. The primary source which confirms this first marriage has not yet been identified. This first marriage is confirmed by the reference to Odalric as "unigenitum suum" in relation to his mother (see below), which means that Isembart must have been born from an earlier otherwise unrecorded marriage of his father. m secondly HELOISE, sister of ROGER Bishop of Beauvais, daughter of --- (-Jan ----). The Vita of St Gregory Archbishop of Nikopolis records "nobilis matrona Allvisa" in "Pithiueris" as mother of "Odolricum", specifying that Odolric was "unigenitum suum" in relation to his mother[458]. Labande confirms that Odolric was the son of Rainard de Broyes seigneur de Pithiviers and his wife Héloise[459]. Her family origin is confirmed by charter dated 1028 of Robert II King of France, confirming donations to Notre-Dame de Colombes, which names her son "Aurelianensium præsul Odolricus" and "iamdicti Odolrici præsulis avunculus Rogerius Belvacensis episcopus"[460]. The necrology of Pithiviers Saint-Georges records the death in Jan of "dominæ Heloysiæ quondam ducissæ Aurelianensis", adding that she founded the church[461]. The anachronistic "ducissa" indicates that the record was not contemporary, although it provides some indication of the relative importance accorded to her family in the region. Rainard & his first wife had one child
