1086-1126: Count of Poitou, as William VII [Ref: Weis AR7 #110]
1101: crusader [Ref: Weis AR7 #185]
We are told by the chronicler of Saint-Maixent that William married Philippa
in 1094, and with the later report of the birth of his two sons (his namesake
& heir, and Raimond of Antioch) we are told that "he also had five daughters
by the aforesaid wife, one of whom [Agnes, as noted above] was married to the
viscount of Thouars" (ex supradicta conjuge habuit quoque quinque filias,
quarum unam desponsavit vicecomiti Toarcensi).
In other words, all his known & legitimate children were by Philippa. Ruth
Harvey studied the evidence in a 1993 paper and concluded that William had
only one wife anyway, and that the report by Orderic of a repudiated countess
named "Hildegarde" was just a misnaming of Philippa. Orderic made plenty of
mistakes like this.
Agnes followed Philippa in taking the veil at Fontevrault, where both of
them died. It hardly seems likely that a widowed queen would have returned to
her homeland in order to join nuns who had previously received a rival of her
mother, if she had not been Philippa's daughter in the first place.
So far I have not been able to find evidence of any illegitimate children
attributed to William the Troubadour in an early source, although his amorous
habits are well documented. Richard says that Raoul de Faye was actually the
son of Mauberge by her husband, and so the brother-in-law of William's son by
that means rather than by marriage to his supposed illegitimate sister. The
Poitiers-Valentinois connection was purely fictional - the mother of Guillaume
de Valentinois was still living in 1180, many decades after Mauberge had died.
