    Notes 
    • Helie, also called Ela, Ala, and Alix, was the daughter of Eudes or Odo de Bourgogne, duke of Burgundy. Her birth date is estimated by a first marriage in 1095.[1]

      She married in June 1095 Bertrand de Toulouse, count of Toulouse, by whom she had a son Pons de Toulouse. Bertrand died 21 April 1112[2]

      Her second husband was Guillaume de Ponthieu, count of Ponthieu, also called William Talvas. They had children: Clemence, Mabile, Philippa, Guy, John/Jean, two Roberts, two Guillaumes/Williams, two Enguerrands, and Ela. Medieval Lands suggests that Clemence, Mabile, and Philippa may have been by a first wife but offers no evidence. [3][4][5]

      Helie is said in Medieval Lands to have died 28 February 1141, although no source is provided for that date.

      The profiles for Helie de Bourgogne and Alix de Burgundy were merged since both were shown as daughters of Eudes or Odo de Bourgogne/Burgunday. The profile for Alix showed a son Richard Despencer, but no source was provided for him.
