Elias VII (Périgord)
Elias VII Talleyrand († after 1204) was a Count of Périgord from the House of Périgord . He was a son of Count Elias VI. and the Raymonde, a daughter of the Vice Count Raymond von Ribérac.
He was married to Margaret, a daughter of Vice Count Adémar V of Limoges , and their son was the future Count Archambaud II († 1239).
Elias succeeded his father, who probably died around 1203/04, as Count des Périgord . In May 1204 he traveled to Rouen in order to take the ligic feudal oath ( hominagium ligium ) towards King Philip II of France . The traditional feudal bond between the county of Périgord and the Duchy of Aquitaine was ended. The then Duke of Aquitaine, Johann Ohneland , only accepted this act in 1214.
When Elias died is unclear, his son first appears in a document in 1212. It is possible that his younger brother Archambaud I had initially exercised the guardianship of his son.
