Contents [hide] 1 Biography 1.1 Family 1.2 Umberto Whitehands 1.3 Umberto and empire 1.4 Marriage and children 1.5 Death 2 Notes 3 References 4 External links Biography[edit] Family[edit] Umberto was the son of Amadeus (who was perhaps count of Maurienne).[1] His brother was Bishop Otto of Belley. Umberto is the progenitor of the dynasty known as the House of Savoy. The origins of this dynasty are unknown, but Humberts ancestors are variously said to have come from Saxony,[2] Burgundy or Provence. Given Humberts close connections with Rudolf III of Burgundy,[3] it is likely that his family were Burgundian, and were descended either from the dukes of Vienne,[4] or from or a Burgundian aristocratic family (such as the Guigonids, ancestors of the counts of Albon).[5] Umberto initially held lands around Belley and in the county of Sermorens,[6] before gaining lands in Aosta and Valais.[7] Umberto Whitehands[edit] He is also called Umberto the White-Handed (French: Humbert aux Blanches-Mains; Italian: Umberto Biancamano) reportedly to signify his generosity. However, this posthumously applied title may derive from a misreading of a late medieval record (in Latin) which actually refers to the walls of his castle (blancis moenibus), not his hands (blancis manibus), as white.[8] Umberto and empire[edit] After Rudolf III’s death (1032), Umberto I swore fealty to Emperor Conrad II.[9] He supported Conrad II in his campaigns against Odo II, Count of Blois and Archbishop Aribert of Milan.[10] In return, Conrad II appointed Umberto count of Savoy and granted him Maurienne, Chablais and perhaps Tarentaise.[11] Marriage and children[edit] Umberto married Ancilla (Auxilia or Ancilia). She may have been Ancilla of Lenzburg, the daughter of the master of ceremonies of Burgundy. Alternatively, Ancilla may have been a daughter of Anselm and Aldiud, and thus a member of a northern Italian dynasty known as the Anselmids.[12] With his wife, Umberto had at least four sons: 1.Amadeus I (died 1056), Count of Savoy, successor 2.Aymon (died 1054 or 1055), Bishop of Sion 3.Burchard (died 1068 or 1069), Archbishop of Lyon 4.Otto (died ca. 1057), Count of Savoy, successor of his brother Some authors believe that he had additional sons. Death[edit] Umberto is often said to have died c.1047/8 at Hermillon, a town in the Maurienne region of present day Savoie, France.[13] More recently, it has been suggested that he died by 1042.[14] Umberto was buried in the cathedral of Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne.
