Count of Brionne and Eu [Ref: CP IV p308, Crouch Normans p5, Searle PredatoryKinship p254]
Count of Brionne in Normandy [Ref: Burke Peerage p767, CP III p242]

Dudo tells us that Richard I fathered two sons and two daughters from concubines after the death of his first wife, the Frankish princess Emma, one of whom was Godfrey of Brionne. Whether or not he was actually born after Emma's death or before is questionable (although he was certainly not her son), but anyway he cannot have been a son of Richard II: Godfrey was dead in or before 1015, having fathered two sons of his own ca 1000, whereas Richard II was not born until ca 980.
