  Willem I van Bellême (ca. 970 - 1038) was een zoon van Ivo I van Bellême en van Godehilde. Hij volgde zijn vader in 1005 op als heer van Bellême en Alençon.
  
  Rond 1020 versloeg hij zijn leenheer Herbert I van Maine en werd hij een vazal van Richard II van Normandië. In 1027-1028 kwam hij echter in opstand tegen de nieuwe hertog, Robert van Normandië. Willem werd verslagen, aanvaardde de heerschappij van Robert en verzoende zich met hem. Hij kreeg zowaar het graafschap over Alençon. Willem was de stichter van de abdij van Dame-Marie van Lonlay. Hij overleed kort na zijn zoons Fulco en Robert. Volgens Willem van Jumièges was hij "oneindig wreed en eerzuchtig".
  
  Volgens Willem van Jumièges werd zoon Warinus door de duivel zelf voor de ogen van zijn vrienden gewurgd.

  Life
  
  William was the son of Yves de Bellême and his wife Godeheut.[1] Yves in turn was the son of Yves de Criel, magister balistarum (Latin meaning officer in charge of the royal siege train).[a][2]
  
  With the consent of Richard I, Duke of Normandy William had constructed two castles, one at Alençon and the other at Domfront, while the caput of Yves' lordship was the castle of Bellême, constructed "a quarter of a league from the old dungeon of Bellême" in Maine.[3] The first mention of William in any records was in 1000 as Marshall of the king's forces when he accompanied the King of France to Toulouse, the next mention being his succeeding his father in 1005.[4] Also, in 1005 William along with his mother made several grants to local churches including the church of Boece, to which his father had founded in his castle of Bellême.[5] Initially William attempted to revoke a gift of his father to Fleury Abbey but was so impressed with the abbot Gauzlin's appeal he restored the gift and also allowed his young son Benoit to become a monk there.[6]
  
  His brother Avesgaud, Bishop of Le Mans who was engaged in constant warfare with Herbert I, Count of Maine.[7] In 1020 Bishop Avesgaud fled to his brother's castle of Bellême after being driven out of his see by count Herbert, for which Avesgaud placed an interdict on Herbert and his lands and excommunicated the count. William joined forces with his brother Avesgaud attacking count Herbert at the castle of Ballon. At first William and Avesgaud were beaten back but Giroie (aka Géré), a vassal of William's held his ground and defeated Herbert's forces completely. William de Bellême introduced Giroie to Duke Richard at Rouen who rewarded Giroie with the lands of Heugon.[b][8]
  
  In 1027 when Robert I, Duke of Normandy succeeded his brother Richard III, William de Bellême revolted against him. Robert laid siege to his castle of Bellême until William surrendered then had to humbly ask for forgiveness (in bare feet with a saddle on his shoulders).[4] Having been forgiven and his fief of Alençon restored, William sent his sons Fulk and Robert to harass the Normans, but they were defeated and Fulk was killed in battle at Blavon.[3]
  
  It is worth noting that neither William nor his father Ives ever attested any of their acts using the title comes (count), indicating they had feudal authority in their own territories but were not officially invested as counts.[9]
  Family
  
  William married Mathilde of Condé-sur-Noireau, William and Mathilde had six sons. His widow Mathilde along with her son William Talvas both confirmed and increased gifts of William de Bellême to the church of Bellême.
