Herbert III, Count of Meaux
- Herbert III, Count of Meaux
Herbert the Younger (circa 950 – 995) was the Count of Troyes (as "Herbert I") and Meaux (as "Herbert III") from 966 and Omois (as "Herbert IV") from 984. He belonged to the House of Vermandois and was a son of Robert and Adelaide Werra.
He inherited his father's domains in 966 and those of his uncle, Herbert III of Omois, in 984. He was a partisan and supporter of King Lothair and followed on his conquest of Upper Lorraine, after which he was guarded the captive Godfrey I of Verdun. After the death of Lothair's heir, Louis V, in 987, Herbert sided with Odo I of Blois and backed Charles, Duke of Lower Lorraine, probably his brother-in-law. Herbert's wife's name is unknown. She was the daughter of a "Count Stephen." His son and heir was Stephen.
