Robert I of Auvergne

Robert I (c. 970–c. 1032) succeeded his father William IV as count of Auvergne around 1016, the year he subscribed the foundation of the church of Saint-Genès. His piety did not stop him seizing the property of the church of Aydat, which he was forced to restore in 1022.

He married Ermengarde of Arles, daughter of William I of Provence. Their son William V succeeded to the county, while their daughter Ermengarde married Odo II, count of Blois.
