William (Simple) de Champagne

• General Notes
  • The following information was supplied in a post-em by Curt Hofemann, curt_hofemann@yahoo.com:
    
    aka: Guillaume de 'Simplex' de Blois, Seigneur de Sully
    simplex = simple (minded). Burke's Peerage 1919 p24 says he was "an imbecile".
    
    Count of Chartres, j.u. Sire de Sully [Ref: Paget p10]
    Lord of Salejo, Sire De Sully [Ref: Moriarty, Turton] (I think "Sire" should be "Seigneur" & unable to locate "Salejo" which looks Spanish, not French. Also, in French is there a differentiation of Lord vs Sire?... Curt)
    
    brother of King Stephen [Ref: CP V:155]
    
    died before 1150 [Ref: ES II:46, ES III:110]
