| Notes |
- Hugues de Roucy was the son of Ebles (II) de Roucy and Sybille Guiscard de Apulia.[1]
His second marriage dates to circa 1120 with Richentia (of unknown origin) by whom his son and successor Guiscard was born, one of at least six children.
In 1147 he founded the Cistercian abbey of Valroy.[2]
Having run afoul of the Catholic church and apparently being excommunicated, an atonement was effected later in his life. His death about 1164 saw the succession of his son Guiscard as count of Roucy.
