Raoul de Lusignan was the son of Hugues de Lusignan and on of his wives, Oregarde or Dulcia. Raoul was comtí d'Eu, Seigneur d'Exoudun, de Melle, et de la Mothe-Saint-Héray. The date of the marriage and Raoul's succession as count is uncertain. It must have taken place before 1194 when "comes de Auco" paid scutage on land in Sussex [2440]. "Radulfus Augensium comes" confirmed donations to Tréport, made by "antecessores mei comes…Robertus et Guillelmus filius eius et Henricus avus Henrici junioris et Johannes pater eiusdem Henrici et idem H.", by charter dated 1191 [2441], indicating that his marriage to Alix comtesse d'Eu took place some years earlier assuming that this document is correctly dated.
