William of Gellone had a sister alda, whose daughter Senegunda married
Fulcoald, Count of Rouergue. I am looking for the name of Alda's
husband/partner, the father of Senegunda. Can anyone help?
Thank you.

Forget this, it's not reliable.
Fulcoald, or Foucaud, was missus in Rouergue but not called count as far as
I know. The family of his wife Senegundis is not recorded.
William's mother was named Alda but his sister is called Alba or Abbana. It
is not known for certain whether she even married, but if she did the
husband was probably Count Nibelun who can be only speculatively (and I
don't think plausibly at that) connected to Senegundis.
Nat Taylor may be able to elucidate the background for this conjecture, if
he has time.

I don't know about this one in particular, but if I recall correctly,
this grows from the recognition that the later Counts of Toulouse held
land or title that previously belonged to the family of William. I
recall seeing at least one other reconstruction, also making Senegunde
a niece of William but with different intervening generations. (Of
course this ignores the possibility that the rights did not pass via
inheritance.)
