Adelais of Amboise (sometimes called Aelinde) (fl. 865), came from an influential 
Frankish family in the Loire Valley. Through her mother, whose name is unknown, she 
was the niece of Adelard, Archbishop of Tours, and Raino, Bishop of Angers.[1] In 
865, her uncles arranged a marriage for her to a Frankish man named Ingelger, 
described as a miles optimus,[2] whose devotion to Charles the Bald had been 
rewarded with land and military commands.[3] Adelais’ dowry included Buzençais, 
Châtillon-sur-Indre, and the fortress of Amboise,[4] which ultimately grew to be the 
royal residence known as the Château d'Amboise. Adelais and Ingelger, who has been 
identified as either a viscount[5] or the first count[6] of Anjou, were the parents of 
Fulk the Red, who became the first hereditary count of Anjou.[7] According to the 
Gesta Consulum Andegavorum, “after the death of her husband, Adelais was unjustly 
accused of adultery by a group of nobles led by ‘Guntrannus parens Ingelgerii’ but 
later exonerated.”[8] Geoffrey of Anjou, founder of England’s Plantagenet dynasty, 
traced his ancestry to Adelais and Ingelger.[9]
