Cadet branch of the [[House of La Rochefoucauld]] <!-- I'd be more cautious with this one. This is a theory among others. Some more recent theories also suggest that Hugues more likely married the daughter of Foucaud Ier de la Roche. I don't think anyone can say for certain, as none of the women are identified beyond doubt (and that's an understatement) in any of the three main theories. Edit: I am well aware of that. --> <gallery caption="Coat of Arms" align=center style= "color: #292929;font-size:1.2em;font-weight: normal;text-align:center;font-style: normal;"> France Chatellerault.svg|House of Châtellerault<br><span style="font-size:88%; line-height: 1.3em;">Lords and Viscounts of Châtellerault<br>Hereditary Marshalls of Poitou<br>Assumed the name from the original Châtellerault family and differentiated arms from [[House of Cornwall|Cornwall family]]</span><!-- The only arms ever recorded in iconographic testimonies, which go back to the early 13th century with the seals of Aimery documented in both Douet d'Arcq and Eygun. The political meaning behind those arms is rather obvious as they were the closest officers in the entourage of the counts from the 10th c. and the border roundely is an extremely frequent feature in all of occitan heraldry. --> Chatellerault.svg|House of Châtellerault<br><span style="font-size:88%; line-height: 1.3em;">Viscounts of Châtellerault<br>Alternative arms variant as sometimes used by their successors from [[House of Harcourt|Harcourt family]]</span> </gallery> <gallery caption="Personal Arms" align=center style= "color: #292929;font-size:1.2em;font-weight: normal;text-align:center;font-style: normal;"> La Rochefoucault Chatellerault.svg|Guillaume de Châtellerault<br><span style="font-size:88%; line-height: 1.3em;">Viscount of Châtellerault<br>1169-1188<br>Arms in ''Salles des Croisades''</span> </gallery>
