Who was Bernard IV Jordan of L'Isle-Jourdain?
Bernard IV Jordan was the Lord of L'Isle-Jourdain from 1303 or 1304 to his death. He was the son and successor of Jordan IV and his first wife Faidiva. Bernard Jordan maintained an alliance with Gaston I of Foix.
He may have taken part in the Aragonese Crusade in 1284. For five years from his accession to 1309, Bernard Jordan served as seneschal of Languedoc for Philip IV of France. Between 1328 and 1331, he was interested in accompanying Philip VI of France on a Reconquista against the Kingdom of Granada, but nothing ever came of it.
On 29 April 1319, Pope John XXII called him "son" when writing to complain of the recent Ghibelline ascendancy in Lombardy.
