William I (or in Occitan: Guilhem I) was the founder of a dynasty which bears his name, the Guilhems, Lords of Montpellier. He received his fief (a manor) of Monspestularius (Montpellier) on 26 November 985 from Bernard, Count of Mauguio,[1] with the permission of Ricuin, Bishop of Maguelone.
Without descendants after his death, his nephew Guilhem II of Montpellier succeeded him.
