The charters of Foulques Le Roux [Reux] and Foulques le Bon are hard to distinguish from each other. As a result we will never really know which "Fulco" married "Roscille". Other Roscilles have been proposed in speculation. The only known facts are that the sister of Thibaut "le Tricheur"was the widow of Alain Barbetorte of Britanny, when she married Foulques "le Bon". Different sources number the Thibauts of Blois and the Foulques of Anjou differently. Stewart Baldwin cites Cart. S.-Aubin 1:203-4 as his source for stating that Roscille married Foulques the Red.
