Raymond Pons (''Regimundus Pontio''; died after 944), who may be numbered Raymond III or Pons I,
[He has traditionally been called Raymond III, but with the discovery of at least one and perhaps two additional Raymonds, this numerical designation is used by some authors to refer to his newly discovered son] was the
count of Toulouse from 924.
In 932, Raymond Pons travelled north with his uncle Count
Ermengol of Rouergue and Duke
Sancho IV Garcés of Gascony to do homage to
King Rudolph.
In 936, Raymond Pons founded the monastery of
Chanteuges. Between 940 and 941, he controlled
Auvergne. In 944, when
Hugh the Great and
King Louis IV entered Aquitaine, the former met Raymond at
Nevers and confirmed his titles while the Toulousain returned with the king to the royal court.
Raymond Pons married a daughter of Duke
García II of Gascony, who was either the same person as his known wife Gersenda or a distinct earlier wife. His successor was another
Raymond, probably his son.
