1050s

The Ingelgeriens are a chalk-lining of the franque Noblesse, resulting from Ingelger, Viscount of Angers. This chalk-lining is also called the Foulque-Geoffroy of Anjou or the first house of Anjou . This family is composed of two lines:

  • the first exit of Ingelger, founds the power angevine, benefitting from the fights between the last Carolingians and the robertiens, ancestors of the capétiens. This first line died out in 1060, with the death of Geoffroy II Martel.
  • the second line is resulting from Geoffroy II Ironwood, count of Gâtinais and Ermengearde of Anjou, sister of Geoffroy Martel. She will lead to Geoffroy V Plantagenêt which, by marrying Mathilde of Normandy, will found the dynasty Plantagenêt.

De Torquatus with Foulques Nerra, the history and the genealogy of Ingelgeriens reached us by a text written of 1100 to 1140 by a monk angevin, at the request of Foulques Réchin, to keep the memory of the accounts of his/her uncle Geoffroy Martel: " the Chronicle of the exploits of the Counts d' Anjou"
