Medieval Lands by Charles Cawley, Foundation for Medieval Genealogy:Upper Lotharinga Nobility: Chapter 11 - Graffen von Metz (Matfriede) GERARD, son of GERHARD Graf [von Metz] & his wife Gisela ---(-Remiremont [14 Apr] or 11 Aug [1070]). The Notitiæ FundationisMonasterii Bosonis-Villæ names (in order) "Adalbertus, Gerhardus,Cuonradus, Adalbero, Beatrix, Cuono, Huoda abbatissa, Azelinus, Ida,Adeleth" as children of "Gerhardus comes [et] Gisela"[2]. In anearlier passage, the same source names "Odelrico comite et Gerhardoduce" as sons and successors of "Gerhardus comes marchio [et] cumuxore sua Gisela"[3]. Comte de Metz, Comte de Châtenois. EmperorHeinrich III appointed him as GERARD Duke of Upper Lotharingia afterhis brother was killed in battle in Nov 1048. "Gerardus…Lothariensiumdux" donated property to Echternach abbey by charter dated 11 Apr 1067which names "uxoris mea Hadvidis filiique nostre Theoderici…patris meiGerhardi matrisque meæ Gislæ"[4]. According to the 14th centurychronicle of Jean de Bayon, Duke Gérard was poisoned[5]. TheObituaire de Saint-Mansuy records the death "11 Aug" of "Gerardusdux"[6]. m HADWIDE de Namur, daughter of ALBERT I Comte de Namur & his wifeErmengarde of Lower Lotharingia [Carolingian] ([1005/10]-28 Jan[1080]). The Genealogica ex Stirpe Sancti Arnulfi names "Hadewidem etEmmam de Los" as the two daughters of "Ermengardis [filiæ Karoliducis]" and as mother of "Theodericum ducem et Gerardum comitemfratres"[7]. It is likely that Hedwig was born during that latterpart of the married life of her parents, given her own death in [1080]and her father's death before 1010. The Liber Memoriales ofRemiremont records the donation of "Haduydis ducissa…consentientibusfiliis suis duce Teoderico atque comite Girardo"[8]. "Hadewidisductrix" founded the abbey of Châtenois by charter dated to after1075, confirmed "post obitum ductricis Hadewidis" by "dux Theodericusfilius eius"[9]. Duke Gérard & his wife had four children: 1. THIERRY de Lorraine (-30 Dec 1115). The NotitiæFundationis Monasterii Bosonis-Villæ records the succession of "duxTheodericus puer parvulus Gerhardi ducis filius"[10], although,considering the estimated birth date range of his mother, Thierry musthave been adult when his father died. He succeeded his father in 1070as THIERRY II Duke of Lorraine, opposed by his brother to whom heceded territories which became the county of Vaudémont in Apr 1073after waging war for two years. Weakened by this conflict, LouisComte de Mousson claimed the title duke from Duke Thierry. "Hadewidisductrix" founded the abbey of Châtenois by charter dated to after1075, confirmed "post obitum ductricis Hadewidis" by "dux Theodericusfilius eius"[11]. During the investiture crisis, Duke Thierrysupported Emperor Heinrich IV who enabled him to take control of Metzafter expelling Hermann Bishop of Metz[12]. Pibon Bishop of Toulgranted privileges to the monastery of Toul Saint-Léon and named "duxTheodericus et Simon puer eius filius, et frater ducis Gerardus comeset Renardus comes Tillensis" by charter dated 10 Oct 1091[13].Emperor Heinrich V granted him the title "Marquis" in [1114][14]. TheObituaire de Saint-Mansuy records the death "30 Dec" of "Theodoricusdux"[15]. m firstly ([1080]) as her second husband, HEDWIG vonFormbach, widow of GERHARD von Süpplingenburg Graf im Harzgau,daughter of FRIEDRICH Graf von Formbach & his wife Gertrud vonHaldensleben (-[1090/93]). According to Poull, Duke Thierryunsuccessfully petitioned the Pope in early 1079 to marry Agnèsd'Aquitaine, widow of Pierre Comte de Savoie, which if correct meansthat his first marriage inevitably took place after this[16]. msecondly (Han-sur-Lesse 15 Aug 1095) as her second husband, GERTRUDEde Flandre, widow of HENRI III Comte de Louvain, daughter of ROBERT I"Friso" Count of Flanders & his wife Gertrud of Saxony [Billung](-[1115/26]). Her parentage and both her marriages are deduced fromthe Cartulaire de Saint-Bertin in which is named "Gertrude filiaRoberti Frisonis, vidua Henrici Bruselensis" mother of "Theodericum"who is in turn named "filium Theoderici ducis de Helsath"[17]. TheGenealogica Comitum Flandriæ Bertiniana specifies that "Robertus comescognomento Frisio" had three daughters "tercia Theoderico comitiAlsatie [nupsit]"[18]. Duke Thierry II & his first wife had twochildren: a) SIMON de Lorraine (-13/14 Jan 1139, bur Stürzelbronn). TheGenealogica ex Stirpe Sancti Arnulfi names "Symonem ducem" as son of"Theodericum ducem"[19]. Pibon Bishop of Toul granted privileges tothe monastery of Toul Saint-Léon and named "dux Theodericus et Simonpuer eius filius, et frater ducis Gerardus comes et Renardus comesTillensis" by charter dated 10 Oct 1091[20]. He succeeded his fatherin 1115 as SIMON I Duke of Lorraine. - see below. b) GERTRUDE [Petronilla] de Lorraine (-23 May 1144, burRijnsburg). The Annales Egmundani name "Petronilla" as widow of"Florentius crassus comes filius Theoderici" but do not give herorigin[21]. The Chronologia Johannes de Beke records the marriage ofCount Floris and "Petronillam Lotharii cesaris sororem"[22]. TheAnnales Magdeburgenses name "Gertrudeis comitissa de…Holland…sororLotherii Saxonis ducis" when recording her rebellion in 1123[23].Regent of Holland for her son Count Dirk VI during his minority. Shefounded the Abbey of Rijnsburg in 1133. The Annales Egmundani recordthe death in 1144 of "Petronilla comitissa uxor Florentii crassicomitis" and her burial at "Rinsburch"[24]. The Chronologia Johannesde Beke record that "Petronilla…comitissa" became a nun at Rijnsburgafter her husband died, and died and was buried there "X Kal Iun"[25].Beke's Egmondsch Necrologium records the death "1144 X Kal Iun" of"Petronilla comitissa"[26]. m (1113) FLORIS II Count of Holland, sonof DIRK V Count [of Holland] & his wife Othelindis --- (-2 Mar 1121). Duke Thierry II & his second wife had [five] children: c) THIERRY de Lorraine ([1099/1101]-17 Jan 1168). He is namedin the Cartulaire de Saint-Bertin, which also specifies hisparentage[27]. He succeeded in 1128 as THIERRY I Count of Flanders. - COUNTS of FLANDERS. d) [GERARD de Lorraine (-after 1117). The Passio KaroliComitis names "Simonis et Gerardi" as sons of "Theodericus dux" & hiswife Gertrude[28]. This is the sole reference so far identified tothe couple having a son named Gérard. However, it is possible that"Gerardi" in the source was simply an error for "Theoderici".Considering the extent to which the role of the future Count Thierryis discussed in later parts of the Passio, it is barely credible thathe should have been omitted from the section recounting the family'sgenealogy. The inaccuracy of this genealogical section is alsodemonstrated by Simon being referred to as Gertrude's son which, asdemonstrated above, is unlikely to have been correct.] e) HENRI de Lorraine (-6 Jun 1165, bur Toul Cathedral). TheChronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the appointment of"Henricus…frater ducis Simonis de Nanceio et illius qui postea fuitcomes Flandrensis" as Bishop of Toul in 1126[29]. William of Tyrenames him brother of Thierry I Count of Flanders when recording hispresence with Konrad II King of Germany in Palestine in 1148[30].Elected Bishop of Toul in Mar 1126, installed at Metz in Jul 1126. f) BAUDOUIN . The Cartulaire de Saint-Bertin records"Balduinum fratrem Theoderici comitis Flandrie"[31]. g) ERMENGARDE de Lorraine . The Chronicle of Alberic deTrois-Fontaines in 1193 refers to "soror…comitis Theoderici et ducisSymonis" as wife of "cuidem forti castellano de Burgundia Bernardo",by whom she had "Iosceranum et sorores eius, qui de sorore comitisCabilonensis genuit Henricum patrem Iosceranni Grossi"[32]. m BERNARDGrossus Seigneur de Brancion, son of LANDRY Grossus Seigneur deBrancion et d'Uxelles & his wife --- (-before [1147]). h) [GISELA de Lorraine . According to EuropäischeStammtafeln[33], the wife of Graf Friedrich may have been the daughterof Thierry II Duke of Lorraine, but the basis for this speculation isnot know. The primary source which confirms her two marriages has notyet been identified. m firstly --- [von Tecklenburg], son of ---. msecondly FRIEDRICH [I] Graf im Saargau, son of SIGEBERT [I] Graf imSaargau & his wife --- (-before 1135).] 2. GERARD de Lorraine (-1108, bur Belval). The Genealogica exStirpe Sancti Arnulfi names "Theodericum ducem et Gerardum comitemfratres" sons of "Hadewidem [filiam Ermengardis]"[34]. He opposed hisbrother's sole succession in 1071, waged war for two years, thedispute being settled when his brother ceded him the Saintois andother territories, which became the County of Vaudémont, 14 Apr1073[35]. - COMTES de VAUDEMONT. 3. GISELE de Lorraine (-after [1114]). The primary sourcewhich confirms her parentage has not yet been identified. Abbess ofRemiremont and Saint-Pierre at Metz 1070/1114. 4. BEATRIX de Lorraine (-[1116/17]). "Stephanus comesBurgundie et dominus de Treva" donated property to Cluny by charterdated [1100] in which he refers to his wife as "filia ducisLotharingie" but does not name her[36]. The primary source whichnames her has not yet been identified. m ([1085/90]) ETIENNE [I]Comte de Mâcon, son of GUILLAUME [I] "le Grand" Comte Palatin deBourgogne & his wife Etiennette --- (-murdered Ascalon 27 May 1102).
