Research Notes:
Count of Maine [Ref: Brandenburg 1995 p118, HenryII hugh0001 1/10/2008, HenryII hugh0002 1/10/2008, Moriarty Plantagenet p11, Settipani Chateaudun p258, Settipani Chateaudun p261]

conjectured son (uncertain) of Hugues I Count of Maine. Given the continuing use of the name Hugues by the counts of Maine .. this conjecture has sometimes been stated with some kind of qualification, but often without such qualification. [Ref: HenryII hugh0002 1/10/2008]

Unfortunately, there is a twenty-four year gap between the last confirmed appearance of count Hugues I and the first confirmed appearance of Hugues II. There might even be enough room for a possible additional generation, although too little is known about the chronology to be sure. Lacking better information, the qualification of Latouche (1910), "peur-etre un fils de Hughes Ier ou un autre de ses parents", seems to reflect the situation well. (translation: Perhaps a son of Hughes I or another of his relatives) [Ref: HenryII hugh0002 1/10/2008]

939/55: Count of Maine [Ref: Brandenburg 1995 p118]

before 955: succeeded as Count of Maine [Ref: Keats-Rohan Maine p191]

before 955-976x992: Count of Maine [Ref: HenryII hugh0002 1/10/2008]

25 Jun 955: first appearance of Hughes II, in a charter of Saint-Pere de Chartres [Ref: HenryII hugh0002 1/10/2008]

955-985: Count of Maine [Ref: Settipani Chateaudun p258, Settipani Chateaudun p261]

955: Hugh the Great and Hugh II of Maine subscribed a charter recording a sale to Saint-Pere de Chartres by Lambert fitz Ausbert and others of an allod at Conde-sur-Huisne [Ref: Keats-Rohan Maine p195]

Sep 960: witness at the donation of a certain Eremburge to Saint-Florent de Saumur [Ref: HenryII hugh0002 1/10/2008]

Mar 967: with two of his sons, witnesses to a donation of a certain Girard, canon of Saint-Martin, to Saint-Julien de Tours [Ref: HenryII hugh0002 1/10/2008]

967: appears in a charter with his sons Hugh and Fulcoin [Ref: Keats-Rohan Maine p195]

971: appears in a charter with his sons Hugh and Fulcoin [Ref: Keats-Rohan Maine p195]

Sep 976: along with count Geoffroy Grisegonelle of Anjou, signed a charter at Saint-Aubin d'Angers [Ref: HenryII hugh0002 1/10/2008]

undated (prob late in his reign): charter in which he appears with two of his sons, Hugues and Herbert [Ref: HenryII hugh0002 1/10/2008]

appearance late in his life of Hugh II's youngest son Herbert, clearly much younger than his brothers Hugh and Fulcoin, strongly indicates that Hugh II married into the house of Vermandois, close allies of the counts of Blois and frequent rivals of Hugh Capet [Ref: Keats-Rohan Maine p196]
