Joan of Geneva

  General Notes:

According to the much later Chronicles of Savoy, Amadeus married Joan, daughter of "Girard, Count of Burgundy", which scholars have surmised to have been Count Gerold II of Geneva. The Chronicon Altacumbae says only that "the wife of Amadeus [was] from Burgundy", which might refer to Amadeus I. If his wife were Genevan, it would explain how the house of Savoy came so early to possess a large portion of the Genevois. His wife, whatever her name and origins, bore Amadeus II several children, although there is some uncertainty about how many.

Joan married Count Amadeus of Savoy II, son of Count Otto of Savoy I and Marchioness Adelaide of Susa of Turin. (Count Amadeus of Savoy II was born circa 1050 and died on 26 Jan 1080.)
