  • Notes 
    • Fulk II of Anjou (died 958), son of Fulk the Red, was count of Anjou from 942 to his death.

      He was often at war with the Bretons. He seems to have been a man of culture, a poet and an artist. He was succeeded by his son Geoffrey Greymantle.
      Fulk II died at Tours. Fulk's date of death 11 November 958 is given by Christian Settipani in his work La Noblesse du Midi Carolingien, but it's unclear upon what primary evidence this is based.

      By his spouse, Gerberge, he had several children:

      Adelais of Anjou, married five times
      Geoffrey I, Count of Anjou, married Adelaide of Vermandois
