Шаблон:More citations needed Hugh de Ivry (988 - 1049) was Bishop of Bayeux and Count of Ivry from the beginning of the 11th Century.[1][2][3][4]
Family
Hugh was the son of Raoul, Count of Ivry, and Éremburge.[1] His sister Emma, who married Osbern de Crépon Seneschal of Normandy, became abbess of Saint-Amand de Rouen on the death of her husband.[1] His half brother was John, Bishop of Avranches, then Archbishop of Rouen.
Biography
He ascended to the Bishopric of Bayeux in 1011 at the latest following a diploma for the Saint-Ouen Abbey in Rouen. He reconstituted the cathedral and proceeded to translate the relics of Saint Ravennus and Saint Rasyphus.[5]
He held, according to Orderic Vitalis, the Castle of Ivry against the Dukes of Normandy.[6] William of Jumièges records his revolt against Robert the Magnificent. Kept away from the King's council, he armed Ivry and left for France to reinforce the garrison. Robert took the opportunity to install a Ducal garrison there. Having gone into exile, he was restored to grace before November 1032, and presided over the founding act of Cerisy Abbey. In the County of Ivry, he retained part of his patrimony which he would seek to transmit to his natural children.[3]
Following a fire, Hugh decided to rebuild the cathedral. It was completed by his successor, Odo de Conteville.[4] The dates of its construction are according to Jean Vallery-Radot between 1040 and 1080. Orderic Vitalis gives full credit for its construction to Odo de Conteville, but he is contradicted by Robert of Torigny.
He died in 1049, returning from his trip to the Council of Reims held by Pope Leo IX. He is buried in the cathedral against the wall on the north side, in a marble tomb.
Patrimony
When his father died around 1015, most of his property fell to him, including the County and Castle of Ivry.[2] He inherited the Comital title though it never appeared in writs, just as for his cousin Archbishop Robert the Dane for Évreux. It was located in four sectors: the forest of Vièvre in Lieuvin, the estates of Raoul in Hiémois, the heritage located north of the Seine and possessions in Évrecin. [1]Properties in the Cauchois region were concentrated on the coast of Petit-Caux and in Vieux-Rouen-sur-Bresle. According to David Bates, he received estates around Breteuil from his father.
He ceded to Raoul Taisson the episcopal customs of twelve churches located in Hiémois before 1047–1049, in which time Raoul ceded them to the Abbey of Fontenay. He ceded around 1042–1049 to the Saint-Amand Abbey of Rouen, of which his sister Emma was Abbess, Boos and its dependencies, Bouquelon and Celloville then, around 1020 -1030 at the request of his knight Raoul, the land of Rouvray and its church at Jumièges Abbey.[3] On this occasion he exempted the monks from tonlieu on the stretch of the river between the entrance to the valley and Fontaine-sous-Jouy. He ceded the church of Saint-Aquilin-de-Pacy to the Saint-Ouen Abbey of Rouen. In 1034 he exchanged the land of Argences with the Abbey of Fécamp for one hundred guests, twenty free men and the churches of Biville-sur-Mer, Brunville and Penly.
Children
He had two natural children:
- Roger (died around 1072) perhaps Roger d'Ivry[6]
- Aubrée or Alberède, claimant to her father's comital title, married to Robert I de Goël then Albert de Cravent (confirmed by Orderic Vitalis)[6][5]
