Edward I of Bar

Edward I (c. 1295–1336) became count of Bar in 1302 on the death of his father Henry III, and his uncles were regents until his 1310 marriage to Mary of Burgundy. Captured by Frederick IV of Lorraine at Frouard in 1313, he was freed in 1314 after a ransom of ninety thousand livres was agreed.

In 1324 he joined the War of the Four Lords against Metz, seeking to cancel the debts from his ransom and assert his seigneurial rights. He died at Famagusta in November 1336 while on crusade, and his son Henry IV succeeded him.
