Where are the Hughs?

Shouldn't Enguerrand I be Guy I's father, rather than Enguerrand II?

Just because Guy I succeeded Enguerrand II, that doesn't make him his father.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_I,_Count_of_Ponthieu and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enguerrand_II,_Count_of_Ponthieu

Although a lot of sites say Enguerrand II was Guy I's father they all appear to assume fatherhood because of succession and ignore the few dates that are available that show that Guy was born too soon to be Enguerrand II's son.
