...asked Robert Helmerichs, a scholar at the University of Minnesota who
specializes in this time. His reply was: "You're right, it's very confusing.
Geoffrey married two women, both named Adele. The second has nothing to do
with Vermandois (that is, the mother of Maurice, a.k.a. Adelais, a.k.a.
Adelaide). The first was either the daughter of Robert of Troyes or his sister
(sister seems to carry the field these days, but there are hold-outs for
daughter). The Adelaide who was married to Robert is another woman altogether.
If you're a real masochist, xerox the genealogical tables from the following
books [Fukk Nero, by Bachrach, etc] , then try to piece together a coherent
picture from them. What you'll learn, I think, is that genealogy in this
period is an art, not a science. Or that chaos theory (of a non-mathematical
kind) reigns.
