Stephen I (1065–1102), Count Palatine of Burgundy, sharing his father's nickname "the Rash" (French tête hardie), was Count of Burgundy and Count of Mâcon and Vienne.
Born into a powerful and influential family, he was the son of Count William I of Burgundy and his wife Stephanie, and younger brother to Reginald II, Count of Burgundy and Pope Callixtus II.
Stephen succeeded to the County in 1097, following the death in the Crusades of his elder brother. He participated in the Crusade of 1101, helping with the capture of Ancyra and fighting in the disastrous Battle of Mersivan, from whence he barely escaped.
Stephen died shortly thereafter, in 1102, aged 37. He was succeeded by his eldest son, Reginald III of Burgundy.
[edit] FamilyHe was married to Beatrix of Lorraine, daughter of Gerard, Duke of Lorraine and Hedwige of Namur. Beatrix died in 1116/1117. Their children were:
1) Isabella, who married Hugh, Count of Champagne who later renounced her and their son Eudes.
2) Renaud III (see above)
3) William III of Mâcon
4) Clemence/Marguerite, d. 1164, who married Guigues IV d'Albon, Dauphin de Viennois. They were parent of Guigues V of Albon
