      Called the Gallant (le Damoiseau), he was the eldest surviving son and heir of Robert I, Duke of Burgundy and his wife, Helie of Semur, and a grandson of King Robert II of France, thus making him a member of the House of Capet through its Burgundy cadet branch. Little is known about his life and he died shortly before his father, thus failing to succeed in Burgundy. Two of his sons succeeded in succession after the death of his father, while a third son became Count of Portugal through his marriage to Theresa, daughter of King Alfonso VI of León and Castile.

      1. Hugh I, Duke of Burgundy (1057-1093)

      2. Odo I, Duke of Burgundy (1058-1103)

      3. Robert, bishop of Langres (1059-1111)

      Reginald/Raynald, abbot of Saint-Pierre de Flavigny (1065-1090)
