The county of Atuyer evolved in the pagus Attoariorum, also known as Hattuarii and Atoariensis, which lay west of the river Sa�ne and comprised the eastern part of the archdeaconate of Dijon (in the diocesis of Langres) and the archdeaconate of Oscheret (diocesis of Chalon).� The pagus owed its name to the Hattuarii, a Germanic people who also founded the pagus Hattuariensis north of K�ln.� Its territory was reduced to the area later covered by the doyenn�s of Fouvent and B�ze after the separation of the pagus Oscarensis, dated to [836/52][1].� As shown below, the comtes d�Atuyer are named in primary sources from the late 9th to the mid-11th centuries.� After that date, the county was presumably subsumed into the neighbouring county of Dijon or formed part of the territory governed directly by the dukes of Burgundy.� The Chronicle of Saint-Pierre de B�ze records the foundation of the monastery of Saint-Pierre de B�ze "inter fluvium�Araris et Sagunna, et fluvium�Tyla�qui Besuus dicitur", a location within the county of Atuyer[2].� This document also shows the Seigneurs de Dampierre-sur-Salon and the Seigneurs de Fouvent, whose seigneuries were located in the area of Atuyer.�

B.����� COMTES d'ATUYER (FAMILY of COMTES de DIJON)

HUGUES[II] de Dijon, son of HUGUES [I] Comte de Dijon & his wife Adalburgis --- .�The Chronicle of St Pierre de B�ze records a donation by "Gibuinus et neptis mea Eraungardis" made "pro remedio anim� fratris mei Hugonis" which also names "Gibuini proavi mei et filii eius Hugonis�et Hugonis patris mei" and "fratres mei Hugo et Wido" and "sponso eius [nepti] Fulcone"[5], undated but placed in the compilation several pages after the record of another donation dated 1043.� The Chronicle of St B�nigne de Dijon records the death of "Hugo comes Divionensis" and a donation by "Adalburgis comitissa uxor eius" for his soul "cum laude filiorum ipsius Gibuini Catalauennsis Episcopi et Richardi qui post eum hunc tenuit comitatum et Hugonis Attoariorum comitis", the brothers later in the same passage recorded as having donated further land "post obitum matris"[6].� Comte d'Atuyer.� Seigneur de Beaumont.�

m ERMENGARD, daughter of ---.�The Chronicle of St Pierre de B�ze records a donation by "nobilis matrona Ermengardis" made "pro remedio anim�senioris sui Hugonis, filiique sui Widonis�defunctus" naming "filii ipsius Hugo et Nerduinus simul Gibuinus", undated and with little clues as to the date from adjacent records of donations[7].� "Gibuinus" restored property "predium�Vuarua" to Dijon Saint-Etienne, bought by "pater meus Hugo comes" and donated for the souls of "patris mei Hugonis comitis et matris mee Hermingardis et fratris mei Norduini et filiorum eius Odonis et Hugonis", and made a donation "pro Hugone nepote meo", by undated charter, signed by "Roberti ducis et uxoris sue�"[8], dated to [1034] by Petit[9].� The unusual name "Narduin" given to her son suggests that she may be Ermengard, daughter of Narduin & his wife Odilia ---, but there is no proof that this is correct.� This hypothesis also appears sustainable from a chronological point of view, although no dates are known for either Hugues or his wife.�

Comte Hugues [II] & his wife had four children:�

1. HUGUES [III] d'Atuyer .� The Chronicle of St Pierre de B�ze records a donation by "Gybuinus clericus, frater Hugonis castri Bellimontis" which names "Ulrico nepoti meo" dated 1044[10].� Comte d'Atuyer.� Seigneur de Beaumont.� m LIETGARDE, daughter of ---.� The Chronicle of St Pierre de B�ze records a donation "pro remedio anim� Odonis optimi militis atque�juventutis filii Nerduini, ictu repentino interfecti" which names "avunculus eius Hugo comes Belmontensis et ipsius Odonis uxor Gertrudis, fraterque eiusdem Hugo servum Teodericum" which also names "Gibuinus frater supradicti militis" dated 1034, signed by "Hugonis comitis, Letgardis comitiss�, Gertrudis uxoris Odonis militis, Gybuini, Richardi, Nerduini filii eius"[11].� Bouchard suggests that Lietgarde was the same person who is named in the following document, and that she was maybe descended from Raoul [III] Comte de Dijon and his wife Lietgarde (see the document BURGUNDY DUCHY-DIJON)[12]: the Chronicle of Saint-B�nigne de Dijon records that �matrona...Letgardis...soror Lamberti Episcopi_� donated �_ecclesiam...in villa...Islo super Mosam fluvium, in comitatu Bassiniacensi [Is-en-Bassigny, Haute.Marne]� to Saint-B�nigne, undated (the last entry in the original chronicle)[13].� Gallia Christiana identifies �_Lamberti Episcopi_� as the bishop of Langres who was appointed 1016 and died 13 Aug 1031[14].� Settipani suggests that, if Bouchard is correct, the chronology indicates that Lietgarde would have been Raoul [III]�s granddaughter[15].� Comte Hugues [III] & his wife had two children:�

a) ULRIC d'Atuyer .� The Chronicle of St Pierre de B�ze records a donation by "Gybuinus clericus, frater Hugonis castri Bellimontis" which names "Ulrico nepoti meo" dated 1044[16].� The Chronicle of St Pierre de B�ze records a donation subscribed by "Odolrici Belmontis filii Hugonis comitis" dated 1043[17].�

A.����� SEIGNEURS de DAMPIERRE-sur-SALON

Dampierre-sur-Salon is located north of the river Sa�ne, about 5 kilometres south of Fouvent, in the present-day French _d�partement_of Haute-Sa�ne, arrondissement Vesoul.� Not enough primary sources have been identified to attempt a reliable reconstruction of the Dampierre-sur-Salon family before the late 12th and after the mid-13th centuries.�

Four brothers, parents not yet identified:�

1. RICHARD [I] de Damp�erre-sur-Salon(-after 1201).� Coudriet & Ch�telet record that �_Richard I de Dampierre_� left on crusade in 1201 �_avec ses trois fr�res Odet, Renaud et Guy_�, without citing the primary source which confirms this information[42].� m [as her [first/second] husband, ---.� The primary source which confirms the identity of Richard�s wife has not been found.� An interesting possibility is raised by the following: Coudriet & Ch�telet state that �_les chartes_� confirm �_Richard II de Dampierre_� as brother of Simon [III] de Sexfontaines, without citing the charters in question[43].� The authors assume that Richard [I] de Dampierre-sur-Salon was the father of the two brothers, which seems inconsistent with the partial reconstruction of the Sexfontaines family shown in the document CHAMPAGNE - BASSIGNY & BOLENOIS.� Another possible explanation (assuming that such charters do in fact confirm the relationship) is that they were uterine brothers, in which case the wife of Richard [I] de Dampierre-sur-Salon married [firstly/secondly] --- de Sexfontaines.� If that is correct, insufficient data is available to indicate whether Richard was her first or second husband.� Richard [I] & his wife had one child:�

a) RICHARD [II] de Dampierre-sur-Salon(-after Oct 1235).� "Richardus dominus Domine Petre" sold property "apud Monmancon" to Monti�ramey, with the consent of �_Sibille uxoris mee et filiorum meorum Odonis et Galteri et filiarum mearum Beatricis et Johannete et domini Guichardi militis mariti Beatricis_�, by charter dated Oct 1235[44].� m SIBYLLE, daughter of ---.� "Richardus dominus Domine Petre" sold property "apud Monmancon" to Monti�ramey, with the consent of �_Sibille uxoris mee et filiorum meorum Odonis et Galteri et filiarum mearum Beatricis et Johannete et domini Guichardi militis mariti Beatricis_�, by charter dated Oct 1235[45].� Richard & his wife had four children:�
