See Wikipedia: Amadeus II, Count of Savoy: ... dau. "Girard, Count of Burgundy", who scholars have surmised as Count Gerold II of Geneva. The Chronicon Altacumbae says only that "the wife of Amadeus [was] from Burgundy", which might refer to Amadeus I. If she wife were Genevan, it would explain how the house of Savoy came to possess so early a large portion of the Genevois.
