BIOGRAPHY
Foulques was born in 1043, the younger son of Geoffrey Ferréol de Château-Landon, comte du Gâtinas, and Ermengarde d'Anjou. He married four times, though his last three marriages ended in annulment. By his first wife Hildegarde de Beaugency he had a daughter Ermengarde who would have progeny. By his second, Ermengarde de Bourbon, he had a son Geoffrey IV Martel who rebelled against him, but predeceased him and left no progeny. Foulques' third marriage, to Arengarde de Châtel Aillon, was annulled without progeny. He then married Bertrade de Montfort-l'Amaury, and they had a son Foulques IV who would have progeny. This marriage also ended in annulment, and Bertrade became the second wife of Philippe I, king of France.

Foulques IV rebelled against his elder brother Geoffrey III 'the Bearded', who had succeeded his uncle Geoffrey II Martel, son of Foulques III, as comte d'Anjou. Foulques IV, discontented over having inherited only a few small appanages, took advantage of the general discontent aroused by Geoffrey III's inept rule, seized Saumur and Angers in 1067, and cast Geoffrey first into prison at Sablé and later in Chinon castle in 1068. He persuaded the French king Philippe I to accept this arrangement by ceding his paternal heritage of Gâtinais to the king. His later years were troubled by rebellion from his elder son Geoffrey IV Martel, but he secured the countship of Maine for his second son Foulques V by arranging his marriage to Eremburge, heiress of Hélie I de la Flèche, comte de Maine. Foulques IV died on 14 April 1109. He was succeeded by Foulques V, who married Eremburge in the following year.
