    Notes 
    • Geoffrey, Comte de Gâtinais married Ermengarde d'Anjou, daughter of Fulco III d'Anjou, 5th Comte d'Anjou and Hildegarde, circa 1035.

      Geoffrey II, de Château-Landon ( -1043/6) was the Count of Gâtinais. He was traditionally viewed as son of Geoffrey, Count of Gâtinais by Beatrice of Macon, the daughter of Aubry II of Mâcon, but recent research has suggested the alternative that he was son by another husband of Beatrice, Hugh of Perche. About 1035 he married Ermengarde of Anjou, Duchess of Burgundy, daughter of Fulk III, Count of Anjou. After Geoffrey's death she married secondly Robert I, Duke of Burgundy.
