Web Notes notes for Stephen DE BRETAGNE Count Of Brittainy
Weis' "Ancestral Roots. . ." (119:26), (214:24), (214A:24), (227:24), identifies him as count of Brittany and the holder of the honour of Richmond, in England. From Cokayne's "Complete Peerage", in the article on Richmond, we learn that Stephen was the youngest of EUDES' eight legitimate sons (His older brothers being Geoffrey Boterel I, Brian, Alain "the red", Alain "the
black", William, Robert, and Richard). There is no express evidence that Stephen was the son of ORGUEN/ AGNES, and he may have been the issue of a second [i.e. an unknown] marriage. He succeeded his oldest brother, Geoffrey (or possibly Geoffrey's son, Conan) in his Breton lands and another brother, Alan "the black" in the honor of Richmond in England, thus uniting all the possessions of the family, but he appears to have been out of the possession of the honor of Richmond for a time during the reign of King William II. In 1101, he was a surety for KING HENRY I for the observance of an alliance with Robert II, Count of Flanders.
