" "Sigefredus Cinnomannicć….episcopus" donated property to Tours-Saint-Julien, with the consent of "senioris nostri Hugonis…ac filiorum eiusdem…Hugonis et Fulchonis", by charter dated Feb 971 [Bibliothčque de l'Ecole des Chartes Tome 47 (1886) XXIII, p. 231]. Guillaume of Jumičges recounts that "comitibus Hugone... Cenomanensi ac Waleranno Mellendesi" were among those who joined the army of Eudes Comte de Blois in attempting to capture the château de Tilličres (Verneuil, Eure) from Richard II Duke of Normandy, and that Hugues escaped after hiding in a sheep's stable and disguising himself as a shepherd before regaining Le Mans, an event dated to the early 1000s[Willelmi Gemmetencis Historić (Du Chesne, 1619), Liber V, X, p. 253]."
