The Count of Quercy

Hugo de Rouergue, son of Count Ermengaud of Rouergue and Adele, was a relatively obscure figure in medieval history.

Early Life and Inheritance

First mentioned in records from 934, Hugo likely inherited the County of Quercy and the Viscountcy of Comborn around 935 after his father's death. However, little is known about his reign.

Late Life and Death

Hugo's passing is believed to have occurred before or shortly after 972. Upon his death, the Viscountcy of Comborn passed to Archambaud, احتمالا ابنه، و دمجت مقاطعة كيرسي مرة أخرى في ممتلكات كونتات رويرج.

- Archambaud, Viscount of Comborn (d. 1008 or later)
