Quoting from Christopher Cope's, "The Lost Kingdom of Burgundy" :
"Humbert III, who reigned from 1149 to 1189, . . . was a man of
irresolute spirit who was disconsolate at being born a prince and
preferred the seclusion of a monestery. He only renounced his chosen
state of celibacy so as to give his land an heir . . . " Two wives produced
only a daughter. "Humbert gave up and became a Carthusian monk . . . As
the anciant chronicle narrates, the barons, knights, and people of Savoy
went to the abbot to beg him to restore their count to them, but his
marriage . . . again only produced a daughter; Humbert was about to
withdraw to the abbey of Aulps when he was prevailed on to marry yet
again, and his fourth wife gave him an heir who fortunately had the
kingly qualities which Humbert lacked."
Weis' "Ancestral Roots . . ." (133:36), however, has the third wife,
BEATRIX OF MACON as THOMAS' mother. Europaische Stammtafeln ii, 190
confirms BEATRIX.
