Research Notes:
A charter dated to [1007/50] records that "Rainaldus episcopus Parisiensis, filius Burchardi Vetuli" cleared the forest of Gâtines and built Ville-l´Evêque, that after his death Foulques "Nerra" Comte d´Anjou granted Ville-l´Evêque to "Hamelino patre Walterii", that "Burchardus…cum matre sua Adela" confirmed all the previous concessions, that after his death his mother associated "Fulconem filium suum" in the county but later sold it to "fratrem suum Goffredum…Andecavorum comitem". "Gaufredus comitatus Andecavensis naturalis heres" made donations to Marmoutier dated 1055 in which he names "nepotibus meis…Fulcone vincocinensium comite naturali, Gaufredo et altero Fulcone". A charter dated to [1060/64] records that "Fulco de Vindocino" raided La Trinité de Vendôme, after the death of Geoffroy II "Martel" Comte d´Anjou [in Nov 1060], but repented.
It appears that he was restored as Comte de Vendôme some time after the death of Comte Geoffroy II, but the circumstances of this restoration have not yet been traced. "Fulconis comitis, uxor eius Petronillæ…" witnessed a charter dated to [1060/66] which records an agreement between "Odone de Camaziaco" and La Trinité de Vendôme concerning property. "Fulconem comitem Vindocinensem", on his deathbed, donated rights to Marmoutier by charter dated 1066, confirmed by "uxor eiusdem comitis…Petronilla" after her husband died, witnessed by "Albericus de Monte-aureo, Ingelbaldus Brito, Wlgrinus filius Ingelbaldi, Rainaldus cantor frater ipsius Petronille, Fulcherius de Turre, Matheus de Monte-aureo, Drogo frater eius, Tetbaldus filius Leterii".
The Chronicon Vindocinense records the death "XI Kal Dec" in 1066 of "Fulco Vindocini comes". The necrology of Vendôme La Trinité records the death "XI Kal Dec" of "Fulco comes Vindocini". 2
