Nobility

♂Hugh of Vermandois

Dates not yet known.

Hugh of VermandoisW was the father of Isabel of Vermandois. He was the twenty-sixth great-grandfather of Nancy Jane Blanchard (1929–2006) through his daughter Isabel, and her twenty-seventh great-grandfather by a second line through Isabel, so by two separate lines of descent.

He is said to have been Count of Vermandois and a son of Henry of France. Isabel, his daughter, married William de Warenne, Earl of Surrey, and through their daughter Ada de Warenne the line reaches the Bohun family and, in time, the Washburns.

Lines of descent

Both lines run through Isabel of Vermandois. They meet again in Alice de Bohun, whose parents Humphrey de Bohun and Maud of Eu both descend from Hugh.

Notes

Sources

Hugh’s title as Count of Vermandois, and his place as the father of Isabel, wife of William de Warenne, Earl of Surrey, come from the Complete Peerage (2nd ed., vol. 6, 1926, under Hereford, pp. 451-452, and under Huntingdon). This is a compiled peerage account, not a record of the time. His wife’s name is not known.
