Clemence de Foix No indication has been found of the name of Duke Adalbert's wife. In 1960, Szabolcs de Vajay hypothesized that Adalbert was count of Longwy and father-in-law of William VII, Duke of Aquitaine and William I, Count of Burgundy, and that his wife was the said Clémence of Foix, daughter of the Count of Foix. (Annales de Bourgogne, Vol 32 (1960) 258-261), and has been followed in this by Frederick Lewis Weis, Ancestral Roots of Certain American Colonists Who Came to America Before 1700, Line 144-22. However, de Vajay subsequently published an unqualified retraction of his hypothesis in "Parlons encore d'Etiennette" in Onomastioque et Parente dans l'Occident medieval (Prosopographica et Genealogica, no.3), K. S. B. Keats-Rohan and C. Settipani, eds. (2000), pp. 2–6. Adalbert
