Guy II, Count of Saint-Pol

[3] Born around 1197, Guy was the eldest son of Walter III of Châtillon and Elizabeth, heiress of Saint-Pol.

[4] Upon his father's death in 1219, he inherited the castle of Montjay-la-Tour and the county of Saint-Pol, although his mother retained the right of residence for life.

In 1221, he married Agnès II, Countess of Nevers, daughter of Hervé IV of Donzy, who had been betrothed to Philip, eldest son of the future King Louis VIII, until his premature death in 1218.

[10] In August 1225, Guy made a donation of 10 livres tournois annually to the domus Dei (monastery) of Troissy for the construction of a chapel.

[14] Guy and Agnes had two children: The county of Saint-Pol reverted to his mother, Elizabeth, who ceded it to Hugh.
