Historical background
BERRY - LORDSHIP OF CHÂTEAUROUX - GUILLAUME III DE CHAUVIGNY
(1270-1322)
The house of Déols appears at the beginning of the 10th century, founded by Ebbes I the Noble (896-937). Ebbes II succeeded Raoul VI (1099-1141) then installed his youngest son Eudes at the head of the lordship of Châteaumeillant (1160-1220). In Déols, it was Raoul VII, his eldest son, who inherited (1160-1176). When he died, his daughter Denise being a minor, Déols experienced many problems and moved to the house of Chauvigny. Three "Guillaume" succeeded each other as lord of Châteauroux: Guillaume I (1207-1233), Guillaume II (1233-1270), Guillaume III (1270-1322). The homonymy does not facilitate the chronology of the coinage of Châteauroux.
