Aldebert II, Count of La Marche

Aldebert II of La Marche (died 1088), son of Bernard I and Amélie de Montignac, first appears as count on 16 June 1047. Early in his rule he burned Lesterps Abbey to flush out an enemy sheltering there, then compensated the monks with his rights over the town's free men.

Lay defender of Charroux Abbey, he long served Duke William VIII of Aquitaine. By Ponce he fathered Boso III and Almodis I. The Chronicle of Saint-Maixent dates his death to 1088.
