AKA: Wulfgrin I, Count d'Angoulême The province of Angoumois comprised the areas now occupied by the Departments of Charente, with some rectifications. Regions of Charente excluded from the Province were, in the North, those of Confolentais, Champagne Mouton, and Villelagnon; in the Southwest, that part of the arrondissement of Cognac, South of the Né. But included in the Province were Deux Sèvres, a small pays near Sauzé- Vaussais and in Haute Vienne, an irregular intrusion comprising Oradour, Saint Mathieu, and Saint Victurnien. The Capital of Angoumois was Angoulême [Charente]. At first part of Saintonge, Angoumois became an independent City late in the Roman era. During the Carolingians Period, the pays constituted a County, as it was also probably under the Mérovingiens. In 770, there was a Comte named Vulgrin; in 839, the Comte was Turpion. The latter was killed by Normans in 863.
