Individual:
Also Count 1215-22.After his defeat at the Battle of Muret, he was stripped of hisestates by Simon de Montfort. They fought again in 1216, andRaymond de Toulouse defended the city against Simon de Montfortin 1218.He protected the Albigneses, against whom Pope Innocent III sentan army in 1208 to avenge the assassination of his legate*.Raymond's territories were ravaged, he himself twiceexcommunicated in 1208 and 1211, and his lands given over toSimon de Montfort [q.v.]. After the death of de Montfort at thesiege of Toulouse in 1218 Raymond recovered his territories, butagain espousing the cause of the Albingenses he was once moreexcommunicated. [Ency Amer, vol. 23, pg. 238, 1955ed.; see also 1991 article by David Roberts*, from an unknownmagazine, in the archives of the compiler of this genealogy -glh].*re: Roberts: In January 1208 these two men [Raymond IV and 'thelegate' of Pope Innocent III] locked horns at St. Gilles. In afoul temper, Raymond refused to give in to the legate's demands,and uttered vague threats when the man announced his departure.The next morning, as the legate's party tried to ford the Rhone,a mysterious horseman charged the camp and killed the legatewith a lance through the back. . . . Thus, in a single stroke,began what would become . . . "one of the most savage of allmediaeval wars." [see also, Sumption, Jonathan, "TheAlbigensian Crusade."]
