Does anyone have details of the line of the Dukes of Burgundy including and
prior to Hugh IV, Duke of Burgundy d 1272?

I am particularly keen to learn details of their spouses.

Also Hugh IV's wife, Yolande de Dreux, was she a daughter of Robert II,
Count of Dreux.

Any help very much appreciated.

Thanks

The name VERGY is of interest to me. My family was VERGE, VERGEN AND
VERGENHANS, prior to changing to NAUCLERUS.

VERGE was to have been a Noble family from the Dominion of Swabia pre 1400's.

Could there be a connection?
