Gerald V of Armagnac

Géraud V d'Armagnac (c. 1150–1219), son of Bernard of Fezensaguet, unexpectedly inherited the counties of Armagnac and Fezensac in 1215 when his childless kinsman Géraud IV Trenqueléon died. During the Albigensian Crusade, on 8 June 1215 he submitted to Simon de Montfort to avoid the fate of Raymond VI of Toulouse.

In 1217 Toulouse rose against Montfort; Géraud answered the summons to its siege and was entrusted with L'Isle-Jourdain. Montfort was killed in the siege, and his claims passed to the future Louis VIII, making the French crown suzerain of Armagnac. Géraud died on 30 September 1219, leaving the counties to his son Pierre-Gérard.
