Robert L del Balzo has kindly sent me two accounts of this family “Bianchina Branch” and Schama “Main tree des Baux”.  Unfortunately the accounts are in Italian and need to include the source references and I do not have the skill or knowledge to deal with these problems.  Robert says that Bertrando was not a duke but merely a count.
