Judith d'Evreux

Judith d'Évreux (died 1076) was a Norman noblewoman and Countess of Sicily.

Judith was the daughter of William d'Évreux and Hawise de Giroie, widow of Robert I de Grantmesnil. She was second cousin of William the Conqueror her father being the son of Robert II Archbishop of Rouen, while her mother was the daughter of Giroie, Lord of Échauffour, a wealthy Norman baron.

Judith's half-brother Robert de Grandmesnil, abbot of the Norman Abbey of Saint-Evroul, was her guardian. After quarreling with Duke William in January 1061, Robert fled Normandy with Judith, her brother and sister, to Rome. The Duke's brother Roger I of Sicily had known Judith from Normandy, and his status and fortunes had now changed considerably. The following summer he joined Judith and brought her with him to Sicily where he and his army of three hundred went to Troina. Leaving Judith in the care of his garrison he continued his campaign. Greek residents then attacked his fortifications, attempting to take Countess Judith prisoner and ransom her in exchange for the Norman's leaving Troina. Roger needed to return to the mainland to replenish their horses and supplies and left Judith once again. This time Judith took command of the citadel herself until Roger returned. in Sicily in 1076.

Judith bore Roger a daughter, who married Hugh of Jarzé († 1076). Other children of Judith were: Matilda (1062–before 1094), who married firstly (repudiated before 1080) Robert, Count of Eu; married secondly (1080) Raymond IV, Count of Toulouse Adelisa, wife of Henry, Count of Monte Sant'Angelo Emma (–aft. 1119), wife of Rudolf, Count of Montescaglioso
