Adelaide del Vasto aka di Savona

Legg inn av Gjest » 18 nov 2005 16:52:19

Hi.
I have Adelaide del Vasto (ca 1100-1135) as 3rd wife of Roger I de
Hauteville (1031-1191), count of Sicily, and later 3rd wife of king
Baudoin I of Jerusalem.
Does anybody know her relationship with Bonifacio del Vasto?
In some texts she is said to be cousin of Bonifacio di Incisa,
Bonifacio's disinherited son, created signore di Gravina by king Roger
II of Sicily.
Thanks

According to Europaische Stammtafeln Adelaide de Savona (not del Vasto) is a
daughter of Manfredo, Margrave of Savona. Sadly there seems to be very few
details available about her ancestors.

I imagine (but don't know) that the next King of Sicily was her son Simon

She married Baudoin in 1113 and they were divorced in 1117

And I also have, without attribution, that Boniface, Lord of Savona was her
uncle, brother to her father Manfred.

Indeed, Roger I was succeeded by his son Simon (1101-1105), who was
succeeded by his brother Roger II (1105-1154).

According to Morby's Handbook of Kings & Queens, Roger I and Simon were
Counts, but Roger II was King from 1130.

"Heraldry" also agrees stating that the title "King of Sicily" was granted to
him by the Pope.

I should have ALSO said that they state this title was in fact granted IN
1130 by the Pope.
As you have said. So I guess before this he was "Count" of Sicily or
something, my text does not say.

Hi, thanks.

1191 was a trivial mistake, you are right.

In the meantime I found out the following

Marchio Tete (aka Tetone), descendant from Anselmo II of Savona,
married Berta, daughter of Olderico Manfredi, marquis of Turin. They
had four sons.

1) the well known Bonifacio del Vasto ("marchio de Vasto", as
indicated in all original documents - Savona and Vado were the
preferred seats of the family), who is the predecessor of many
aleramian families (marquis of Busca, Saluzzo, Clavesana, Carretto,
etc). He married trice:
A) Y, widow/fiancèe of his brother Anselmo (their son Bonifacius di
Incisa was disherited, but later restored in his properties by
Federico Barbarossa)
B) Alice, daughter of Pietro I di Savoia
C) Agnes de Vermandois
Bonifacio's sons are:
1.1) Ottone Boverio, count of Loreto (in Piedmont)
1.2) Enrico il Guercio, marquis of Savona
1.3) Bonifacio, marquis of Cortemiglia
1.4) Anselmo, marquis of Ceva and Albenga
1.5) Ugo, marquis of Clavesana
1.6) Guglielmo, marquis of Busca
1.7) Manfredo I, marquis of Saluzzo

2) Manfredus / Maginfredus marchio de Vasto (1040-1079)

3) Anselmo

4) Oddone

Manfredo del Vasto had two sons
- Adelaide del Vasto
- Enrico del Vasto, later count of Butera

He started as Count of Sicily, progressed to Duke of Apulia (recognised
as such by Honorius II in April 1128) and became King of Sicily,
Calabria and Apulia on 27 September 1130 (at the dubious hands of the
antipope Anacletus) [Oxford Dictionary of Popes, J.N.D. Kelly, pp 166,
169).

The Encycloepaedia Brittanica 1911 edition online confirms she was
"niece of Boniface, lord of Savona".

On my website is a small biography for this Roger and this tells that he
assumed the title of king in 1130 and was crowned by a representative of the
anti-pope Anacletus. However, in 1139 he captured the real pope Innocent II
and "treated him with such reverence that the pope rewarded him with the
titles of King of Sicily, Duke of Apulia and Prince of Capua."

Hope this helps.
