Henry of Burgundy

Henry of Burgundy

Henry of Burgundy (1035 – c. 1071) was the son and heir of Robert I, duke of Burgundy. He died shortly before his father and failed to succeed in Burgundy. The name of his wife is unknown (that it was Sibil has been discredited) as is her origin, although a connection to the Counts of Barcelona has been hypothesized. Their children were:

*Hugh I, Duke of Burgundy (1057-1093)
*Eudes I, Duke of Burgundy (1058-1103)
*Robert, bishop of Langres (1059-1111)
*Helie, a nun (b. 1061)
*Beatrice (b. 1063), married Guy I, count of Vignory
*Reginald, abbot of St Pierre (1065-1092)
*Henry, Count of Portugal (1066-1112), who became a vassal of León and ruler of the county of Portugal in 1093; his son would be Afonso Henriques, first king of Portugal
