"Ansericus dominus Montis Regalis", leaving for Jerusalem, donated property to the priory of Saint-Bernard de Montréal by charter dated 1189, witnessed by "dominus Joannes de Arceis frater meus…". The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Guido de Domno Petro…Ansericus de Monteregali cognatus illius…" among those who left on crusade in 1190. It is possible that Anséric [II] died while on the Third Crusade, although no primary source has yet been identified which confirms that this is correct. It is also possible that he was "Ansericus dominus Montis-regalis…" who witnessed the charter dated 5 Aug 1195 under which Mathilde Ctss de Nevers founded an anniversary at Reigny, although the witness could also have been his son Anséric...
