William IV of Saint Omer
William IV of Saint Omer was the castellan of Saint- Omer from ca. 1171 until his death, as well as Lord of Beaurain and Fauquembergues.
The date of his birth is unknown; he is mentioned for the first time in 1157, when his uncle Walter was castellan.
William was the son of Walter's successor, William III of Saint Omer, and of a lady named Mathilda.
William IV is first attested as castellan in 1178, but according to Arthur Giry he may have succeeded his father already by 1171, as the genealogies of Baldwin of Avesnes imply that he was already castellan when married his wife, Ida of Avesnes( a sister of the Crusader James of Avesnes), and the couple's eldest son, the future William V of Saint Omer, was already over 15 years old in 1186.
William is attested in a series of documents and charters until 9 August 1190, but it appears that he then left for the Holy Land, where he died in 1191.
His wife, Ida of Avesnes, lived until sometime between 1205 and May 1211.
According to Baldwin of Avesnes, the couple had eleven children:
Bouchard IV of Avesnes
Burchard IV or Bouchard IV (1182–1244) was the lord of Avesnes and Étrœungt.
He was the son of James of Avesnes and Adela of Guise and brother of Walter, Count of Blois.
Bouchard began his career as a cantor and subdeacon in the church of Laon.
In 1212, he was named bailiff of Hainaut.
In this capacity, he served as tutor and guardian of the young Margaret, sister of Joanna, Countess of Flanders and Hainault.
He later married Margaret in 1212, though she was only ten years old and the marriage could not be consummated.
Neither Joanna nor Count Ferdinand gave their consent, and tried to have the marriage stopped, they failed.
Bouchard lived a war-like life.
He invaded the territory of his brother Walter, who had received most of their patrimony.
He then invaded Flanders and forced Joanna and Ferdinand to recognise his marriage to Margaret.
He then fought at the Battle of Bouvines in 1214, under the (losing) Flemish banner.
Philip Augustus, the king of France and victor of Bouvines, then counselled the pope, Innocent III, to declare the marriage of Bouchard and Margaret illegal.
Innocent eventually excommunicated Bouchard on 19 January 1216.
They took refuge in Luxembourg.
In 1219, Bouchard was captured in battle and would be imprisoned in Ghent for two years.
To obtain his release, Margaret accepted the dissolution of the marriage and Bouchard left for Italy to fight for the Holy See.
Upon his return, he was decapitated at Rupelmonde on the orders of Joanna.
Bouchard and Margaret had three children, who played an important part in the War of the Succession of Flanders and Hainault:
Baldwin of Avesnes
Baldwin of Avesnes (September 1219 in Oizy – 10 April 1295 in Avesnes) was a son of Bouchard IV of Avesnes and his wife, Margaret II of Flanders.
His parents' marriage was later declared illegal, because his father had already received minor orders.
Baldwin was later declared legitimate by the pope, at the instigation of King Louis IX of France.
In 1246, Baldwin received Beaumont as an apanage.
He fought his whole life, together with his brother John I, against his half-brothers from his mother's second marriage with William II of Dampierre.
He was said to be responsible for the accident that killed his half-brother William III of Dampierre during a tournament in Trazegnies.
After the Edict of Péronne and the death of his brother John, he reconciled with his mother, who sent him to Namur on a revenge expedition.
In 1287, Baldwin sold Dunkirk and Warneton to Guy, Count of Flanders.
He is also known as a chronicler; he wrote the "Chronique Universelle".
Charles Verlinden identifies the diplomat Baldwin of Hainaut as Baldwin of Avesnes.
Beatrice d'Avesnes
Beatrice d' Avesnes( died: 1321) was a daughter of Baldwin of Avesnes and his wife Felicitas of Coucy.
Baldwin was the son of Bouchard IV of Avesnes.
She married in 1265 Count Henry VI of Luxembourg and was the mother of:
Isabella of Ibelin (died 1315)
Isabella of Ibelin( died 1315) was the daughter of Baldwin of Ibelin( d. 1313), lord of Korakou, and of Marguerite de Giblet.
William VI of Saint Omer
William VI of Saint Omer was the castellan of Saint- Omer and lord of Fauquembergues briefly in ca. 1246/ 7.
The genealogist Baldwin of Avesnes records him as a son of William V of Saint Omer, but Arthur Giry has him rather a younger brother of the latter, i.e. he was one of the eleven children of William IV of Saint Omer and Ida of Avesnes.
He is first attested in April 1207, and appears thereafter in various charters and documents, in which from 1218 on he appears as lord of Pitgam and later of Berkin.
He succeeded his brother sometime between March 1246 and his own only attestation as castellan, in August 1247.
Very little is known of his tenure, which apparently was very brief; Baldwin of Avesnes merely records that he went on Crusade, where he died.
He was succeeded by his eldest sister Beatrice and her son William of Renenghes by 1251.
Louis II, Count of Blois
Louis II of Châtillon( d. 26 August 1346, battle of Crécy), son of Guy I, Count of Blois and Margaret of Valois, was count of Blois and lord of Avesnes 1342 – 1346.
In 1340 in Soissons, he married Jeanne of Avesnes, Countess of Soissons( d. 1350), daughter of John of Avesnes, Lord of Beaumont.
They had three children:
Louis was killed at the Battle of Crécy.
Nicholas d'Oisy, Lord of Avesnes
Nicholas d' Oisy, Lord of Avesnes, nicknamed(" the Beautiful"), was a son of Walter I, Lord of Avesnes and his wife, Ada of Tournai.
He was Lord of Avesnes, Leuze and Condé.
He built castles in Landrechies and Condé.
Nicholas was married to Matilda de la Roche, the widow of Thierry de Walcourt.
She was the daughter of Henry I of la Roche( – 1126), Count of la Roche and warden of Stavelot and Malmedy and his wife, Matilda of Limburg.
Her paternal grandfather was Albert III, Count of Namur; her maternal grandfather was Henry, Duke of Lower Lorraine.
They had the following children:
Baldwin V, Count of Flanders
Baldwin V of Flanders( c. 1012 – 1 September 1067) was Count of Flanders from 1035 until his death.
He was the son of Baldwin IV, Count of Flanders, who died in 1035.
