Jocelyn I de Courtenay (c. 1034-after 1069), son of Athon, Châtelain de Châteaurenard, Seigneur de Courtenay. Very little is known about his life other than his two marriages. He first married Hildegarde de Château-Landon, daughter of Geoffrey II, Count of Gâtinais, and Ermengarde of Anjou (daughter of Fulk III, Count of Anjou). Joscelin and Hildegarde had one daughter:
- Vaindemonde de Courtenay, married to Renard II, Count of Joigny.
Joscelin married secondly Elizabeth of Montlhéry, daughter of Guy I of Montlhéry and Hodierna of Gometz. Joscelin and Elizabeth had five children:
- Hodierne of Courtenay, married to Geoffroy II, Seigneur of Joinville
- Miles, Seigneur of Courtenay, married Ermengarde of Nevers
- Joscelin I, Count of Edessa and Prince of Galilee
- Geoffroy of Courtney (d. 1139)
- Renaud (d. before 1133), Monk at the monastery of St. John the Evangelist at Sens.
After Joscelin’s death, Elizabeth became a nun at St. John’s. See also House of Courtenay.
