  Notes	“[GERAUD (-before [984/93]). Samuel Guichenon, in his Histoire de la Souverainté de Dombes written in 1662, refers to Comte Artaud [I] who lived in 900 and his son Geraud, but does not cite the primary source on which this is based. According to Auguste Bernard, Géraud died in 990, but he cites no primary source on which he bases his statement.] m GIMBURGIS, daughter of ---. Her marriage is confirmed by the charter dated 994 under which "Artaldus comes, Gerardi quondam nobilis viri et Gimbergiæ filius" donated property to Savigny. Géraud & his wife had [six] children: i) ARTAUD [II] (-[993 or 999] or [11 Oct 1000]). "Artaldus comes, Gerardi quondam nobilis viri et Gimbergiæ filius" donated property "in pago Lugdunensi in ago Cegniacensi…in villa Toriniaco" to Savigny by charter dated 994, subscribed by "Artaldi comitis et uxoris eius Theodebergiæ". ii) UMFRED . Guichenon cites earlier secondary sources which quote an epitaph (disappeared by 1662 when Guichenon wrote) which records the death in "the year 99" of "Artaudus comes Lugdunensis et comes Forensis et dominus Bellijoci et Umfredus frater eius et mater eorum". The editor of the 1874 edition of Guichenon records yet another version, from "la chronique trouvée à Belleville" which reads "…Artaldus comes Lugd. et Forensis dns Stephanus comes frater eius et Amphredus Bellijojoci dns et pater et frater eorum, obiit dictus Artaldus 993". Guichenon concludes that the epitaph is unlikely to be genuine, based on his supposition that pre-1000 epitaphs are infrequent and that those which exist record only names and titles not the territories ruled. iii) ETIENNE (-before [984/85]). The editor of the 1874 edition of Guichenon records a version of an epitaph, from "la chronique trouvée à Belleville", which reads "…Artaldus comes Lugd. et Forensis dns Stephanus comes frater eius et Amphredus Bellijoci dns et pater et frater eorum, obiit dictus Artaldus 993". iv) HUGUES (-after 993). Paradin quotes a charter dated 993 under which “Artaldi comitis” donated property to “l´église de sainct Iregny”, signed by “Artaldi…comitis…coniugis Tetbergiæ, Hugonis abbatis fratris eius, Adelcellina abbatissa”. Abbé d´Ainay. v) [ADESCELINE . Abbess of Saint-Pierre de Lyon. According to Auguste Bernard, "Adesceline abbesse de Saint-Pierre de Lyon" was the daughter of Gérard Comte de Forez, but he cites no primary source on which he bases his statement.”«s87»
