Hugh IX of Lusignan

Hugh IX of Lusignan

Hugh IX the Brown of Lusignan or Hugh IV of La Marche or Hugues IX & IV le Brun de Lusignan [ [http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/ANGOULEME.htm#HuguesIXLusignandied1219 Genealogy of Hugh IX of Lusignan] ] (1163 or 1168 – 5 November, 1219) was the grandson of Hugh VIII. His father, Hugues de Lusignan, b. c. 1141, Co-Seigneur de Lusignan in 1164, married Orengarde N before 1162 or about 1167 and died in 1169 leaving a six or one-year-old son. Hugh IX became Seigneur de Lusignan in 1172, Seigneur de Couhe et de Chateau-Larcher 1190/1200, and Count of La Marche by marriage in 1203 and died on the Fifth Crusade at Damietta on 5 November, 1219.

Hugh IX is mentioned under the pseudonym "Maracdes" ("Emerald") in two poems by the troubadour Gaucelm Faidit, according to the Occitan "razós" to these poems.

Marriage and issue

His first wife was Agathe de Preuilly, daughter of Peter (Pierre) II de Preuilly and Aenor de Mauleon. Their marriage was annulled in 1189. According to the below reference, Agathe was the mother of:

* Hugues X de Lusignan

His second wife, married c. 1189, was Mahaut or Mathilde Taillifer (Mahaut or Mathilde d'Angoulême) (1181 – 1233), daughter of Wulgrin or Vulgrin III Taillifer, Count of Angouleme and Count of La Marche (brother of Aymer/Adhemar Taillifer). According to this reference's chronology [ [http://genealogy.euweb.cz/crus/lusignan2.html de Lusignan 2 ] ] , Mahaut or Mathilde (which seems more likely since she was the actual Countess of La Marche and so was Hugh X) was the mother of:

* Hugues X de Lusignan
* Agathe d'Angoulême-Lusignan, married c. 1220 Geoffroi V Seigneur de Pons
