Research notes
WILLIAM III 'TAILLEFER', Count of TOULOUSE (c.970-1037); m. Emma of Provence; father of Pons (our line). DOCUMENTED HEAD of the Toulouse spine: his own parentage (Raymond III of Toulouse vs Raymond Pons) is contested in the recent literature and is left note-only, not wired. Standard well-documented medieval royal/comital genealogy per the cited authorities; rungs graded, contested parentage marked note-only, not hardened.
