      Parents
      He was the son of Ives (I), Comte de Beaumont, whose birth year has been estimated as 990. [2]

      His father's birth year was estimated earlier, 975, by a popular genealogy site:[3]

      The identity of Ives [II] Comte de Beaumont as the son of Comte Ives [I] is confirmed by the undated charter under which “comes Matheus...laudantibus conjuge mea Aeles et liberis meis” [Mathieu [II] Comte de Beaumont] confirmed the exemption from navigation duties to the monks of Saint-Wandrille de Fontenelle granted by “Ivo comes cum filio suo simile nomine scilicet clerico et canonico, cui jure hereditario post discessus sui cursum castrum Confluencie tribuendo concessit, cum sua propria conjuge Emma...”. [1]

      Ivo (III) is shown by Cawley as one of five siblings.

      Geoffroy, died 10 Jan 1068-1070[2]
      Ivo III (Yves) de Beaumont or Ives (II) de Beaumont, died 22 May 1083-91[2]
      Aubrey[2]
      Eudes died 1088 or later[2]
      Gosbert died after 1039[2]
      The popular genealogy reports a sister, Ermengarde, born 1000, Countess of Mello, as a daughter of Ives and Gisele. She has been de-linked from Ives but retained as a daughter of Gisele pending further research. [1]

      “Ivo...Belmontensis castri comes” donated property to la Trinité de Fécamp by charter dated to after 1027, subscribed by “Ivonis comitis, [J]osfredi filii eius, Ivonis clerici eius filii sui fratris, Alberici eius filii”. [1]

      1039 with Father and Mother, donate Castrum Confluentie
      "Comes Ivo cum filio meo simili nomine…clerico et canonico…cum mea propria conjuge Emma et ceteris omnibus meis liberis" donated "castrum Confluentie" to Saint-Wandrigisel by charter dated 1039, signed by "Ivo…comes…Ivo clericus…comes Goffredus, Albericus, Gelduini vicecomitis…Odonis filii supradicti comitis, Gosberti fratris eiusdem Odonis". [1]

      Resignation of Clerical Status
      Cawley observes that Ives must have resigned his ecclesiastical appointments soon after the date of this charter, as the following sources do not mention his church positions and because the birth of his daughter can be estimated to [before 1045] (see below). [1]

      1042 Donation to Marmoutier
      "…Ivonis filii Ivonis comitis de Bello Monte…" witnessed a charter dated to [1042/44] under which "Guanilo thesaurarius Sancti Martini" donated property to Marmoutier. [1]

      1044 First Marriage to Judith
      He married firstly JUDITH, daughter of ---. She is named as wife of Ives and mother of Adelise by Orderic Vitalis. [1]

      1049 Agreement between Abbeys
      "…Yvonis filii Yvonis comitis…" subscribed the charter dated to [1049/60] which records the agreement between the abbey of Monmajour and Chartres Notre-Dame. Comte de Beaumont-sur-Oise. [1]

      12 April 1059 Father's Death
      His father died 12 April 1059. The Necrologium Bellimontense records the death “II Id Apr” of “Ivo comes fundator ecclesie S. Leonorii”. [2]

      Second Marriage to Adelais
      He married secondly ADELAIS, daughter of --- (-8 Apr 1099). “Ivo comes de Bellomonte et Adelhidis uxor eius” donated “ecclesia Sanctæ Honorinæ de Confluencio” to the monastery of Bec by charter dated 1080.

      The Chronicon Beccensis Abbatiæ records that "Yvo de Bellomonte comes uper Isarum et Adelidis uxor eius" donated "ecclesia B. Honorinæ de Confluentium” to Bec in 1082.

      [Depoin says that Adelais “devait appartenir à la maison de Gournay”, citing the necrology of Beaumont-Saint-Léonor which records the death of Hugues de Gournay (“X Kal Nov...Hugo de Gornayo”[32]) and suggesting that Hugues, younger brother of Mathieu [I] Comte de Beaumont, was named after him[33]. However, there is no indication to which Hugues de Gournay this necrology entry relates, nor of the time when he lived. The idea is interesting, but the data on which the hypothesis rests is too imprecise to suggest that it is probable.]

      The Necrologium Bellimontense records the death “VI Id Apr” of “Adeledis comitissa Bellimontis”. The year of her death is ascertained as follows. Depoin records that “la plus ancienne vie de saint Gautier, premier abbé de Saint-Martin de Pontoise” (he provides no precise citation reference for this source) records his death “le vendredi saint, et le même jour fut le dernier de la comtesse”. The necrology of Pontoise Saint-Martin records the death “VI Id Apr” of “apud castrum Pontisariense...Sancti Galteri abbatis”, which coincides with the date of death of Adelais reported in the Necrologium Bellimontense. According to the calculations of Cheney, the only years in the mid- to late 11th and early 12th centuries when Goof Friday fell on 8 April were 1037, 1099 and 1110. Of these, the second appears to be the only year which is possible from a chronological point of view.

      1071 Charter to Abbey of Saint-Spire de Corbeill
      "…Ivonis comitis Belli Montis…" subscribed the charter dated 1071 under which "Buccardus…Corbolensium comes" donated property to the abbey of Saint-Spire de Corbeil. [1]

      The Chronicon Beccensis Abbatiæ records that "Yvo de Bellomonte comes uper Isarum et Adelidis uxor eius" donated "ecclesia B. Honorinæ de Confluentium” to Bec in 1082[26]. [1]
