The correct information is in Moriarty's Plantagenet Ancestry, but it is
not as stated above. (This appears to confuse Adalbert III of La Marche
with Adelbert of Lorraine (or was it Metz) hypothesized by Vajay to be
father of Estefania/Stephanie, wife of William, Count of Burgundy. It
is the Lorraine Adelbert who Vajay hypothesized to have married
Clemence, daughter of Bernard Roger.) Is La Marche covered in ES?

This Almodis was daughter of Adelbert III, son of Bernard, Count of La
Marche. Her mother, I think, is known only by given name, which is not
Clemence.

Again, this is Adelbert, not William.
