Guy I of Dampierre (d. 1151), son of Thibaut of Dampierre-sur-l’Aube and Elizabeth of Montlhéry, daughter of Milo I of Montlhéry.[1] Viscount of Troyes. Seigneur of Dampierre, Saint-Dizier, and Moëlain.

Guy travelled with Hugh I of Troyes on his pilgrimage to the Holy Land in 1125[2]. It is not known whether Guy became a Knight Templar, although his son William approved the donation of property to the Templars at Provins[3] in 1133. (See also the article by Peixoto sourced below.) Guy was associated with Barisan the Old, who travelled in the Holy Land with Hugh II of Le Puiset, as well as Hugh’s uncle Guy of Le Puiset.

Guy married Helvide of Baudémont, daughter of Andre of Baudémont, Seneschal of Bourgogne, and his wife Agnes. Helvide was the widow of Hugh of Chacenay, Seigneur de Montréal. After Guy’s death, Helvide became a nun at Jully-les-Nonnains. Guy and Helvide had seven children:

  • William I of Dampierre (d. after 1173), Seigneur of Dampierre, Saint-Dizier, and Moëlain
  • Andre (d. after 1165)
  • Milo (d. after 1165)
  • Guy II of Dampierre (d. 1163), Constable of Champagne and Lord of Dampierre, Bourbon and Montluçon, married Mathilde of Bourbon.
  • Helvide (d. before May 1196), married Geoffrey IV, Seigneur of Joinville
  • Agnes (d. after 1192), married Narjot, Seigneur of Toucy.

Guy II had two famous children: Archambaud VIII, Lord of Bourbon, and William II, who married Margaret II, Countess of Flanders, daughter of Baldwin I, Latin Emperor of Constantinople.
