Father: Alphonse JourdainAbout this person
Bertrand was the illegitimate son of Alfonso Jordan, Count of Toulouse. He accompanied his father to the Levant during the Second Crusade. Instead of returning to his homeland afterwards, he captured 'Urayma, a fortress in the County of Tripoli in 1148 or 1149, reportedly in an attempt to seize the whole county from his kinsman Count Raymond II. Raymond persuaded two Syrian Muslim rulers Nur al-Din and Unur to attack 'Urayma. They captured Bertrand, and he lived in captivity until 1159, when he was set free due to an agreement between Nur al-Din and the Byzantine Emperor Manuel I Komnenos about the release of Nur al-Din's Christian prisoners. No more detail of his life is known.
