Guy III of Montlhéry
Guy III Trousseau (died 1109) was lord of Montlhéry, and the son of Milo I of Montlhéry[1] and Lithuise.
Guy had the temperament of a warrior, and went on the First Crusade in 1096.[2] He was one of those who deserted the army during the Siege of Antioch,[2] and did not dare return directly to France, instead returning home by a long detour through Epirus and Italy.
Guy had only one child:
- Elizabeth of Montlhéry, married Philip, Count of Mantes, son of Philip I of France and Bertrada de Montfort.[3]
