Humbert DE BEAUJEU

   General Notes:

He founded the church of Beaujeu with his parents[335]. The chronology of the charters in which he, his brothers and his sons are named suggests that Humbert was one of the oldest of his parents' children. "Humbertus…[et] Ameldis uxor mea" made a donation of property "in pago Lucdunensi in villa Ronnenco…capellam…sancti Germani…" to Cluny by charter dated [11Jul 966/10 Jul 967], subscribed by "Umbertus, Ameldis, Beraldus filius eius, Arbertus, Letaudus, Bladinus, Arnaldus, Girbertus, Ugo, Girardus, Arbertus, Aldebaldus"[336]. "Umbertus, Ameldus, Berardus, Vuichardus, Letaudus, Bermundus, Raimodis, Aldebaldus" witnessed the charter dated 978 under which "Vuichardus" donated property to Cluny[337], the first five witnesses presumably being Guichard's brother Humbert, the latter's wife and their three sons. "Humbertus et uxor mea Emeldis" donated property "in pago Matisconensi in villam…Morgonum" to Cluny by charter dated to [987/96], subscribed by "Berardi, Wichardi et Letaudi filiorum ipsorum"[338]. "Vuigonis, Lamberti…Humberti…" subscribed the charter dated to [987/96] under which "Vuandalmodis et filius meus Vuichardus" donated property to Cluny for the soul of "Letaudi filii mei"[339]. "Umbertus et uxor mea Aimeldis" donated property "in pago Lugdunensi" to Cluny by charter dated 994, subscribed by "Berardi, Wicardi, Letaudi et filiorum eius…"[340], the subscribers presumably being the sons of the joint donors despite the wording of the document.
