bullet  General Notes:

In 932, he did homage to Rudolph of France and was created Duke of Aquitaine,[2] Count of Auvergne, and Margrave of Gothia,[3] even though William Towhead claimed the ducal title as well.

In 936, he founded the monastery of Chanteuges. Between 940 and 941, he controlled Auvergne. In 944, when Hugh the Great and King Louis IV entered Aquitaine, the former met Raymond at Nevers and confirmed his titles while the Toulousain returned with the king to the royal court.
