Notes
In 1098 he aided William II against his brother's castles of Montfort a n d E p e r non. After the death of William de Breteuil in 1103, Amaury sup p o r t e d the claim of William's Burgundian nephew, Renaud de Grancei, to s u c c e e d to his estates against that of his Breton nephew, William de Gae l . O n t h e d eath sp. in 1118 of his maternal uncle, William, Count of E v re ux , A m aury claimed the comte, and when Henry I denied him the inheri t a n c e , he led a widespread revolt, and obtained possession of Evreux. I n t h e f o l lowing year, Henry besieged Evreux, but his nephew Theobald, C ou n t o f C h ampagne, reconciled him and Amaury, who surrendered the castl e t o t h e K i ng and thereupon received his uncle's comte. In 1123 Amaury j o i n e d t he revolt of Waleran, Count of Meulan (subsequently husband of h i s d a u g hter Agnes), against Henry. The next year Amaury fought at Bour g h t e r oulde and was captured when fleeing from the field by William de G r a n d c ourt who, rather than hand over his prisoner to captivity, went in t o e x i l e with him, but before the end of the year Amaury made his peace w i t h t h e K ing and seems to have maintained friendly relations with him d u r i n g t he rest of his reign
