* Elisa of Savoy married Humberto of Beaujeu

* Agnes of Savoy, married William I, Count of Geneva
* Humbert III
* John of Savoy
* Peter of Savoy
* William of Savoy

According to another member, he was buried in the Stavrovouni Monastery near Pyrga, Larnaca District, Cyprus, not the church of Sainte-Croix in Nicosia or Famagusta or Arsinou.

"la abbatia della Verace Croce, la grande.... Le mont Sainte-Croix, ou Stavro Vouni, qu'on appelait aussi le mont Olympe." [_Chroniques d'Amadi et de Strambaldi_,by Francesco Amadi, Paris, 1891, p.513.] This statement is translated as "the Abbazia della Vera Croce, great .... Mount Holy Cross, or Stavro Vouni, also called Mount Olympus" and does not state this is his burial place.
