Notes for Hugh Lusignan
Hugh XI. Born in Lusignan, France. Died on Crusade in Egypt. He was a third generation crusader. His grandfather also died of wounds while on crusade in Damietta, Egypt.
This Hugh married Yolande de Dreux.
Several sources have confirmed that Abbaye Notre-Dame Valence, Couhé-Vérac, Vienne, Poitou-Charentes, IS the correct Abbey of Valence.
Peter Stewart noted:This abbey was founded by Hugues X of Lusignan as a daughter house of Clairvaux. The lords of Lusignan were also seigneurs of
Couhé.
