Guigues IV of Albon

Guigues IV[a] (died 28 June 1142), called le Dauphin (Latin: Guigo Dalphinus), was the count of Albon from 1133.

[2] Another theory posits that Matilda was a daughter of Count Roger I of Sicily and the widow of King Conrad II of Italy.

[1] Guigues married Margaret [fr], daughter of Stephen I, Count of Burgundy, and niece of Pope Calixtus II.

[3] Guigues had good relations with the priory of Oulx and the abbey of Bonnevaux, to which he made gifts.

Ambushed by Amadeus near the castle of La Buissière, he was wounded in battle and died a few days later on 28 June 1142.
