He disputed possession of the château de Gien with Pierre de Courtenay, but defeated the latter and obliged him to agree to the hand of his daughter as well as the transfer of the county of Nevers. The arrangement was confirmed by Philippe II King of France in Nov 1199. His father-in-law invested him as Comte de Tonnerre before leaving France in early 1217 following his appointment as Emperor of Constantinople. He succeeded his father-in-law in 1219 as Comte d'Auxerre[3344]. The Chronique de Guillaume de Nangis records in 1222 the death by poison of "Henri comte de Nevers" and his burial first "dans le château de Saint-Aignan dans le territoire de Bourges, ensuite dans le monastère de Pontigny, ordre de Cîteaux"[3345].

The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Mathildem" as only daughter of "comitis Petris" & his first wife, specifying that she married "Herveio Gaufridi filio de Giam et de Dunzeio"[3346]. She succeeded her mother in 1193 as Ctss de Nevers, d'Auxerre, Ctss de Tonnerre, under the guardianship of her father, but the latter declared himself Comte d'Auxerre et de Tonnerre in 1199. The Chronologia Roberti Altissiodorenses records the marriage in 1199 of "Petri Comitis Nivernensis filiam" and "Herveo de Giemo"[3347]. Philippe II King of France granted permission for the marriage of လHerveus dominus Donziaciဝ and လfiliam Petri comitis Nivernensis, cum comitatu", for which "nos et Renaldus frater noster" granted "Giemum cum tota castellania" to the king, by charter dated Oct 1199[3348]. She married secondly (Jul 1226) as his third wife, Guy [IV] Comte de Forez.
    Hervé [IV] & his wife had two children:
    a) GUILLAUME de Donzy (-[1207/12]). The primary source which confirms his parentage and betrothal has not been identified. Betrothed (1207) to BEATRIX de Viennois, daughter of ANDRE Comte d·ÄôAlbon [Bourgogne-Capet] & his first wife Beatrix de Sabran Ctss de Gap et d'Embrun ([1205]-18 Sep after 1248).
    b) AGNES de Donzy (-1225). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records that "comiti Herveo Nivernensiဦfilia" was betrothed to "Philippo primogenitor domni Ludovici", and that after he died she married "Guido primogenitus Galtheri de Sancti Paolo"[3236]. လHerveus comes Nivernensisဝ confirmed the franchises granted by လLudovicus...regis Franciæ primogenitusဝ in လterra...Montismirabilis, Aloye, Bracote, Autoin, Basochie et Froseiiဝ, granted as dower to လfilie nostre Agneti cum primogenito dicti Ludovici Philippo in maritagiumဝ, by charter dated Jul 1218[3237]. A charter dated Dec 1219 names the guarantors for the marriage of လHervei comitis NivernensisဦAgnete filia sua"[3238]. Dame de Donzy. The Chronique de Guillaume de Nangis records in 1222 the marriage of the daughter of "Henri comte de Nevers" and "Gui comte de Saint-Paul"[3239]. Her daughter was heiress of the county of Nevers.

    Agnes & her husband had two children:
    i) YOLANDE de Ch√¢tillon ([1221/22]-1254). The estimated birth date of Yolande's first child is [1234/35]. If this is correct (bearing in mind that it would mean that Yolande was no older than 13 when she gave birth), she must have been her parents' first child, born soon after their marriage. Heiress of the county of Nevers. m ([30 May 1228]) ARCHAMBAUD de Bourbon, son of ARCHAMBAUD [VIII] "le Grand" Seigneur de Bourbon [Dampierre] & his first wife Guigone de Forez (-Cyprus 15 Jan 1249).

    (b) AGNES de Bourbon (1237-Foggia, Apulia [5 Sep 1287/30 Jun 1288], bur Champaigue-en-Bourbonnais, église des Cordeliers). The primary source which confirms her parentage and two marriages has not been identified. She succeeded her sister 1262 as Dame de Bourbon.
    ii) GAUCHER de Ch√¢tillon (-Munyat Abu Abdallah, Egypt 6 Apr 1251). Seigneur de Montjay, de Broigny, de Donzy et de Saint-Aignan. Heir of the county of Nevers.
