Herbert I (died 1036), called Wakedog or Evigilans Canis (Eveille-Chien), was the count of Maine from 1015, the son and successor of Hugh III.
Herbert left four children:
* Hugh IV, successor, married Bertha, daughter of Odo of Blois * Biota, married Walter III of the Vexin * Paula, either wife or mother of John de Beaugency, among whose children was Elias to whom Maine eventually passed * Gersenda, married firstly Theobald III of Blois; divorced in 1048 and married secondly Albert Azzo II, Margrave of Milan

Herbert I "ââveille-Chien" ("Wake-Dog") (Herbertus Evigilans Canem) Count of Maine, 1014âó5-1032âó5.
Having evidently succeeded his father a year or two earlier, Herbert "Wake-Dog" first appears in action at the Battle of Pontlevoy on 6 July 1016, in alliance with Foulques III Nerra of Anjou against Eudes II of Blois [Gesta consulum Andegavorum, Marchegay & Salmon (1856), 107-8; Hist. Saint-Florent de Saumur, Marchegay & Mabille (1869), 274; Halphen (1906), 33-5]. On the night of 7âó8 March 1025, Herbert (Arbertus Cenomannis comitis) was treacherously captured by Foulques III Nerra, who had promised him the city of Saintes, only being released two years later, after he had sworn homage to Foulques [Adâ©mar Chab., iii, 64 (p. 189); Annales de Vendâ¥me, s.a. 1027, Halphen (1903), 61; Halphen (1906), 68-9]. Herbert was still living in 1032âó5, when he ratified a donation of Yves de Bellââ¢me, bishop of Sâ©es [Latouche (1910), 143 (#22)]. On his death, he was succeeded by his young son Hugues IV under the tutelage of Herbert's uncle Herbert Bacon, who was the de facto count during the early years of Hugues IV.
Date of Birth: Unknown. Place of Birth: Unknown.
Date of Death: 15 February 1032âó5. The date of 15 February comes from the martyrology of Couture ["15 kalendas marcii obierunt Herbertus, comes Cenom[anensis]..." Latouche (1910), 26, n. 4, who notes that this cannot be a reference to Herbert II, who died on a 6 March]. Herbert was still alive at the time of a charter which can be dated 1032âó5 (see above), and he was deceased before Gervais de Châ¢teau-du-Loir became bishop of Le Mans (which occurred by 17 December 1035) [Latouche (1910), 26, n. 4]. Place of Death: Unknown.
Father: Hugues III, d. 1014âó5, count of Maine. The relationship between Hugues III and Herbert I is stated by an early interpolation to Adâ©mar de Chabannes ["... Arbertum Cenomannis comitem [filium Ugonis]" Adâ©mar Chab., iii, 64 (p. 189); the addition "filium Ugonis" appears in a twelfth century manuscript] and Orderic Vitalis ["Herbertus Cenomannorum comes ... Hugonis patris sui ..." OV iv (vol. 2, pp. 304-5)]. It is further confirmed by the statement of the Actus that Herbert Bacon (a brother of Hugues III, as confirmed by charters - see the page of Hugues II) was an avunculus of Herbert I ["... Herbertus, comes, cognomine Baco, avunculus Herberti, qui fuit temporibus Avesgaudi episcopi, ..." Act. Pont. Cenom., 363].
Mother: Unknown.
Spouse(s): Unknown.
Children: See the page of Paula for more details.

Two of these possibilities are either that Jean's wife Paula was a daughter of Herbert, or that Jean (son of Landry alias Lancelin) was a maternal grandson of Herbert. These two scenarios obviously cannot both be true (and it is possible that neither of them are). The possibilities are discussed in detail on Paula's page. Bibliography

Herbert I (died 1036), called Wakedog or Evigilans Canis (Eveille-Chien), was the count of Maine from 1015, the son and successor of Hugh III.
Under the last Carolingian and first Capetian kings of France, royal power declined sharply and many royal rights were amassed by the greater and lesser nobility. Herbert of Maine even struck coins with his own monogram. He purchased the loyalty of his vassals by dolling out his land to them and granting them the right to build castles, which proliferated, as at Sablâ©, Châ¢teau-du-Loir, Mayenne, Laval, La Fertâ© Bernard, Saint Calais, Sillâ© (after 1050), La Suze, Malicorne, La Milesse, Montfort, and Sourches.
From the beginning of his reign, he was constrained to aid his suzerain, Fulk III of Anjou, in a war against Odo II of Blois, both of whom had designs on the Touraine. In 1016, following an attack on the fortress of Montrichard, Odo met the forces of Fulk at the Battle of Pontlevoy on 6 July. Despite Odo's numerical advantage, by the intervention of Herbert, the battle went to Fulk. One of the consequences of the battle was to create a balance of power in the region, which was followed by peace for several years.
By marrying his son to Bertha of Chartres, daughter of Odo II of Blois, Herbert was able to maintain himself independent of his legal suzerain. He also allied with the count of Rennes, who threatened Fulk from the west. He made enemies with the king, Robert II, and even expelled the bishop of Le Mans, Avesgaud of Bellâ®me, from his diocese. Finally, on 7 March 1025, he was arrested in Saintes by Fulk, who kept him imprisoned for two years until a coalition forced his release. Herbert then did homage to Fulk.
Herbert left four children:
Hugh IV, successor, married Bertha, daughter of Odo of Blois Biota, married Walter III of the Vexin Paula, either wife or mother of John de Beaugency, among whose children was Elias to whom Maine eventually passed Gersenda, married firstly Theobald III of Blois; divorced in 1048 and married secondly Albert Azzo II, Margrave of Milan [edit] External links Herbert (I) of Maine in the "MedLands" database hosted on the Foundation for Medieval Genealogy website Preceded by Hugh III Count of Maine 1014 ·Äì 1036 Succeeded by Hugh IV Retrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_I_of_Maine" Categories: 1036 deaths | Counts of Maine

Under the last Carolingian and first Capetian kings of France, royal power declined sharply and many royal rights were amassed by the greater and lesser nobility. Herbert of Maine even struck coins with his own monogram. He purchased the loyalty of his vassals by dolling out his land to them and granting them the right to build castles, which proliferated, as at Sablâ©, Châ¢teau-du-Loir, Mayenne, Laval, La Fertâ© Bernard, Saint Calais, Sillâ© (after 1050), La Suze, Malicorne, La Milesse, Montfort, and Sourches.
From the beginning of his reign, he was constrained to aid his suzerain, Fulk III of Anjou, in a war against Odo II of Blois, both of whom had designs on the Touraine. In 1016, following an attack on the fortress of Montrichard, Odo met the forces of Fulk at the Battle of Pontlevoy on 6 July. Despite Odo's numerical advantage, by the intervention of Herbert, the battle went to Fulk. One of the consequences of the battle was to create a balance of power in the region, which was followed by peace for several years.
By marrying his son to a daughter of the count of Blois, Herbert was able to maintain himself independent of his legal suzerain. He also allied with the count of Rennes, who threatened Fulk from the west. He made enemies with the king, Robert II, and even expelled the bishop of Le Mans, Avesgaud of Bellâ®me, from his diocese. Finally, on 7 March 1025, he was arrested in Saintes by Fulk, who kept him imprisoned for two years until a coalition forced his release. Herbert then did homage to Fulk.
Herbert left four children:
Hugh IV, successor, married Bertha, daughter of Odo of Blois
Biota, married Walter III of the Vexin
Paula, married Lancelin I of Beaugency or John de Beaugency
Gersenda, married firstly Theobald III of Blois; divorced in 1048 and married secondly Albert Azzo II, Margrave of Milan -------------------- Herbert I (died 1036), called Wakedog or Evigilans Canis (Eveille-Chien), was the Count of Maine from 1015, the son and successor of Hugh III.
