Guillaume III Roger de Beaufort
Guillaume III Roger de Beaufort (1332–1395), vicomte de Turenne, was nephew of Clement VI and brother of Gregory XI, two Avignon popes.
On 7 February 1350 he married Aliénor de Comminges, and Clement VI gave the couple the vicomté of Turenne as a wedding gift. In 1351 Joanna I of Naples named him Grand Chamberlain. The Treaty of Brétigny made Turenne English, and in 1361 he paid homage to the English king, though he remained loyal to the Valois.
He crusaded at Alexandria in 1365 and represented Gregory XI at the Bruges conference in 1375. In 1383 he presided over the assembly at Alès that ended the Tuchin revolt. He died in Paris on 28 March 1395 and was buried in Notre-Dame.
