Bertha of Aumale – (c1010 – c1050)
French mediaeval heiress
Bertha was the daughter of Guenfroi, Seigneur of Aumale in Normandy. She became the wife (before 1030) of Hugh of Ponthieu (c1010 – 1052) who succeeded his father Enguerrand I as Count Hugh II of Ponthieu and Montreuil (1045 – 1052). Countess Bertha bore her husband at least three children, but it seems unlikely that she survived him. Countess Bertha was interred within the Abbey of St Ricquier. The county of Aumale was later granted (1069) to Bertha’s grandson Eudes III (c1045 – 1118) by his maternal uncle William I the Conqueror of England. Her children were,
1. Enguerrand II (c1030 – 1053 )# 122698824. He succeeded his father as Count of Ponthieu (1052 – 1053) but was killed in battle. His wife Adelaide of Normandy # 122698753 was the sister of William the Conqueror, and they had three children.
2. Adelaide of Ponthieu (c1031 – after 1053). She was married to William I (died after 1053), Count of Arques in Normandy and left issue.
3. Guy I (c1037 – 1100). He succeeded his brother as Count of Ponthieu (1053 – 1100) and was married twice and left descendants. From: A Bit of History
