Montfort 1

: Montfort of Evreux, Montfort of Leicester, Montfort of Montfort,Ev
BE1883 Montfort reports that the first Almaric/Amaury/Aymer of Montfort was an illegitimate son of Robert, King of France. The only Kings Robert of France at or before this period were the Robert I grandfather of Hugh Capet who died in 923 and Robert II 'the Pious' son of Hugh Capet who lived 972-1031. The article in BE1883 says that this Almaric, son of King Robert, was great-grandfather of the Simon who married Amicia de Beaumont but gives no dates for any of the family until that Simon. As BE1883 appears to miss out some generations, we follow 'The Complete Peerage' TCP. As the dates given in TCP are broadly consistent with other sources, and as the dates found in various web sites eg 'Mathematical' report that the first Amaury de Montfort was born about 935, we believe that the first Amaury here reported could not have been a son of a King Robert of France. It is possible that he was a grandson of King Robert I but that has not been proved.

The vicinity tof Calais suggests that his ancestors were a branch that stayed in Evreux rather than sharing the booty in England that was passed out after the Battle of Hastings. When Henry VI of England lost all his French possessions except Calais just before the Wars of Roses, his supporters in France fled to England and Calais. Such a family is also likely to have embraced the Huguenot faith and moved out of the reach of French Papists into Belgium.
