  Notes	Bouchard de Montmorency, later Bouchard [III] Seigneur de Montmorency, de Marly, de Feuillarde, de Saint-Brice, d'Epinay et d'Hérouville was the son of Herve de Montmorency, Seigneur de Marly and his wife Agnes, whose family name remains unknown. [1] [2] [3] Bouchard's father Herve (transcribed in later French as Hervé) and uncle Thibaut de Montmorency were witnesses of a charter dated 29 May 1067 under which Philippe I King of France confirmed the possessions of Saint-Martin-des-Champs in Paris (being noted as was customary with the name of their associated estates: Thetbaldus de Monte morenciaco…Herveius de Marleio) - and in a 1071 charter related to the abbey of Saint-Spire de Corbeil. The two were noted as being brothers in a 1086 charter as: Theobaldum de Montemaurenciaco fratremque eius Herveum. [1] Bouchard was noted with his parents in 1087: [1] [3] "Herveus de Marleio et uxor mea Agnes, Burcardus…filius meus" donated the church of Marly to the abbey of Notre-Dame de Colombs en Beausse by charter dated 1087. His parents had at least three sons, and potentially two other children: [1] [2] Bouchard Geoffroy Herve His father Herve died by 1096. Bouchard succeeded to the estates of Montmorency and Marly, and succeeded to or acquired additional estates including Feuillarde, Saint-Brice, Epinay and Hérouville. [1] Marriages and Family Bouchard's first marriage was to a woman named Agnes - reported to be Agnes de Beaumont, Dame de Conflans Sainte-Honorine (who was the daughter of Ives [III] Comte de Beaumont-sur-Oise and his second wife Adelais) - however, the primary record for her parentage and marriage is not provided in the account by Duchesne. [1] [2] Bouchard and Agnes had two sons and potentially a daughter: [1] Mathieu, who succeeded his father as Seigneur de Montmorency Thibaut, who reportedly accompanied King Louis VII to the Holy Land in 1147 a possible daughter Adeline, the spouse of Guy de Guise Bouchard reportedly married a second Agnes, the daughter of Raoul Deliés and his wife Hazecha (Hawise) before 1105, with the couple having a son Hermer. [1] [2] Bouchard reportedly married a third wife, Adelisa de Clermont, who was the daughter of Hugues, Comte de Clermont-en-Beauvaisis and the widow of Gilbert FitzRichard de Clare - and the couple may have had several children together. [1] [2] Death in Jerusalem and Succession Based on a necrology of the Abbaye du Val (likely related to one of his wives), Bouchard [III] de Montmorency died in Jerusalem after 1124. The Kingdom of Jerusalem had been established as one of the Crusader States following the First Crusade of 1096-1099. Following his death, Bouchard was succeeded in France by his eldest son Mathieu who became the Seigneur de Montmorency, de Marly, de Conflans-Sainte-Honorine et d'Attichy.
