Umberto III (1136, Avigliana, Piedmont – 1189), surnamed the Blessed, was Count of Savoy from 1148 to 1189. His parents were Amadeus III of Savoy and Mahaut of Albon, the sister of Guy IV of Dauphinois. His memorial day is March 4. According to Cope〔Cope, Christopher.''The Lost Kingdom of Burgundy''(Edition? Page number?)〕 His first wife died young; his second marriage ended in divorce. Umberto gave up and became a Carthusian monk. However, the nobles and common people of Savoy begged him to marry yet again, which he reluctantly did. This third wife gave him two more daughters, and Umberto attempted to return to the monastic life yet again. Finally he was prevailed upon to marry for a fourth time, and this wife, Beatrice, produced the son who would ultimately succeed him. In 1188 he founded the Monastery of Sant'Antonio di Ranverso. ==Family== Umberto married four times: * Faidiva of Toulouse (Italian) (d. abt 1154) daughter of Alphonse I of Toulouse * Gertrude of Flanders (m. abt 1155), whom he divorced and confined. She was freed thanks to Robert, bishop of Cambrai and returned to the court of her brother, Philip of Flanders * Clementia of Zähringen (married 1164), daughter of Conrad I of Zähringen. They had 2 daughters: * * Sofia, (1165–1202), married Azzo VI of Este * * Alicia, (1166–1178), betrothed to John of England * Beatrice of Viennois and had 1 son: * * Tommaso (born 1178) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Humbert III, Count of Savoy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
