Aimery IV, Viscount of Thouars, was a companion of William the Conqueror on his Invasion of England in 1066. Aimery was the son of Geoffrey II of Thouars and Agnes de Blois, daughter of Odo I, Count of Blois, and Bertha of Burgundy.
In 1055, he allied with Geoffroy Martel, Count of Anjou, against William, Duke of Normandy, and he participated in the siege of Ambri?res, a castle built by William on the border of the County of Maine. After returning to Thouars in 1056, he joined the army of the Duke of Aquitaine to fight against the Saracens in Spain. He participated in the capture of Barbastro and brought a rich booty back to his home in Thouars.
In 1066, he was in England as part of the invading army of William the Conqueror. At the Battle of Hastings on October 14, 1066, he commanded a corps composed of Poitevins, Bretons, and Angevins. However, he did not settle in England, but received ample reimbursement and returned to France.
He rebuilt the castle of Thouars in 1080. He also was lord of La Chaize, near La Roche-sur-Yon, where he built a castle and a church dedicated to St. Nicolas. Early in 1090, he made war on Pierre de Mortagne and took his castle. He was assassinated by two of his own knights in 1093. He was buried in the church of Saint Nicolas in La Chaize.
