Notes

Weis' "Ancestral Roots. . ." (128:22), (162:22), (163:22), (164:22). Which

of BALDWIN IV's wives was his mother is not specified, but since he was

born abt.1012 and his father married OGIVE in that same year and did not

marry the dau. of RICHARD II until abt.1031, it is a safe assumption that

OGIVE was Baldwin V's mother.

Frank Barlow, Oxford (Clarendon), 1992. Footnote, p 36

"Baldwin V rebelled in 1028 against his father at the instigation of his

wife Adela, daughter of Robert II of France; but two years later peace

was sworn at Oudenaarde, and the old count continued to reign until his

death in 1036. Baldwin V proved a worthy successor, and acquired from

the people the surname of Debonnaire. He was an active enterprising

man and greatly extended his power by wars and alliances. He obtained

from the emperor Henry IV, the territory between the Scheldt and the

Dender as an imperial fief, and the margraviate of Antwerp. So powerful

had he become that the Flemish count on the decease of Henry I of France

in 1060 was appointed regent during the minority of Philip I. Before his

death, he saw his eldest daughter Mathilda (d. 1083) sharing the English

throne with William the Conqueror, his eldest son Baldwin of Mons in

possession of Hainaut in right of his wife Richilde, heiress of Regnier V.

(d. 1036) and widow of Hermann of Saxony (d. 1050) and his second son

Robert the Frisian regent of the county of Holland during the minority of

Kirk V."
