Étienne (Stephen), Count of Ivois and Count of Porcien. The County of Porcien dates back to the eighth century and her rulers were loyal to the Carolingian dynasty. The Treaty of Verdun in 843 assigned Porcien to Charles the Bald and Étienne is the first recorded Count of Porcien. There is a possible connection between the Counts of Porcien and Counts of Laon based on onomastics related to Roger, Count of Laon.
