William II (or III) (c.?981 – 1018), called the Pious, was the Count of Provence.
Life[edit]

William was the son of William I (or II) of Provence and Arsende de Comminges,[1] 
daughter of Arnaldo, Count of Comminges and Arsende, Countess of Carcassonne.[2] 
William succeeded his father; William I, on the latter's retirement to a monastery just 
before his death in late 994.[1] He was a minor under his step-mother's regency until 
he came of age in 999. His regent was Adelaide-Blanche of Anjou, his father's second 
wife.[a] William did not succeed to the margravial title, which went to his uncle 
Rotbold I.[1] Around 1002, he married Gerberga, daughter of Otto-William, Count of 
Burgundy and Ermentrude, Countess of Mâcon and Besançon.[3] William died in 1018, 
about 30 May.[1]
