Notes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manasses,_Count_of_Dammartin
Manasses (d. 15 December 1037), Count of Dammartin (Dammartin-en-Goële), son of 
Hilduin II, Count of Arcis-sur-Aube and Seigneur de Ramerupt. He was a member of 
the House of Montdidier. His Latin nickname was Calvus – the Bald, (although 
disparagingly Calva-asina – Bare she-ass)[citation needed].

Manasses died in the battle of Ornel, near Etain, Bar-le-Duc, apparently part of an 
invasion of the Kingdom of Burgundy by Odo II, Count of Blois, after the death of 
Rudolph III, in an attempt by Odo to gain the crown of Burgundy..

Manasses married Constance, Princess of France, daughter of Robert II the Pious and 
his third wife Constance of Arles. There is some question that Constance was the child 
of Robert and Constance, the major proof of the issue by onomastics. They had three 
children:
Odo, Count of Dammartin
Hugh I, Count of Dammartin
Eustachie de Dammartin

Upon his death, Manasses was succeeded as Count of Dammartin by his son Odo.
