This appears to be a mistake in DD - according to the later chronicle of
Savigny, where the deaths of several seigneurs of Fougères are recorded,
Agatha was the daughter of William of Le Hommet (entry for the death of her
son Geoffrey, on 14 June 1212: "Obiit Gaufridus dominus Filgeriarum, filius
Willelmi et Agathæ, filiæ Willelmi de Humeto, XVIII kal. julii.").
