Alan IV, Duke of Brittany
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Alan IV of Cornwall (died 1119) was duke of Brittany, from 1084 to 1112. He was also Count of Nantes and Count of Rennes. He was son of Duke Hoel II and Hawise of Brittany. He was known as Alain Fergant, which in Breton means "Alan the Younger".
Alan IV had to face an invasion of William I of England and was forced to abandon his duchy in 1086. Peace was made in the same year and Alan married Princess Constance of England, William's daughter. This marriage was forced upon Alan and he is presumed responsible for Constance's death by poisoning in 1090 -- William of Malmesbury says she was killed because she was too conservative for the Breton court. Alan married again in 1093 with Ermengarde of Anjou, a formidable woman who became the real ruler of Brittany. By her he had a son Geoffrey, a daughter Hawise (married to count Baldwin VII of Flanders) and his heir Conan. In 1098 Alan went on Crusade, leaving Ermengarde as his regent, and returned in 1101. Alan IV was not a popular duke and was forced to abdicate in 1112. He retired to the monastery of Redon and died there in 1119.
His illegitimate son was Brien FitzCount.

Constance was Alan's 1st wife.
{geni:about_me} Alan IV, Duke of Brittany
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alan IV Fergant (died 13 October 1119) was Duke of Brittany, from 1084 until his abdication in 1112. He was also Count of Nantes and Count of Rennes. He was son of Hawise, Duchess of Brittany and Duke Hoel II. He was known as Alan Fergant, which in Breton means "Alan the Younger". Through his father, he was of the Cornwall dynasty, (Breton: Kerne dynasty)
Norman Conflict
A traditional rivalry between Brittany and Normandy continued at the close of the 11th century. The Breton-Norman war of 1064–1065 was the result of William I of England's support of rebels in Brittany against Alan's grandfather, Conan II. Hostilities continued, and by 1086 Conan was forced to abandon his duchy after William I of England invasion.
Peace was reached that same year, and in the negotiations that followed Alan IV was forced into marriage with King William I's second daughter Constance.[1] The marriage ceremonies may have taken place in Bayeux in Normandy. William of Malmesbury wrote that Constance was unpopular at the Breton court because of her "sever and conservative" manner.[1] William of Malmesbury also alleged that Alan VI had Constance poisoned to death, but this remained unverified[1] However, Orderic Vitalis wrote that as duchess Constance did all she could to further the welfare of the Bretons, who grieved deeply at her death in 1090.[1]
In 1092 Alan IV donated property to the abbey of Redon by charter, and by 1093 married Ermengarde of Anjou, as a political alliance with Fulk IV of Anjou to counter Anglo-Norman influence.[1] With Ermengarde he had two sons, Geoffrey, who died young, and Conan, and a daughter, Hawise (who married Count Baldwin VII of Flanders), who was possibly named after Alan's mother.[1]
Crusader
In 1098 Alan went on the First Crusade, leaving Ermengarde as his regent, and returned in 1101.
Abdication and Death
Alan IV abdicated in 1112, and he and Ermengarde were separated after this. The former Duke retired to the monastery of Redon, where he died in 1119.
His illegitimate son was Brien FitzCount.
