Baldwin II, "from his stronghold at Bruges, maintained, like his father, a
vigorous defence of his lands against the incursions of the Northmen. On
his mother's side a descendant of Charlemagne, he strengthened the dynastic
importance of his family by marrying Aelfthryth, daughter of Alfred the
Great. On his death in 918 [sic] his possessions were divided between his
two sons Arnulf the Elder and Adalulf, but the latter survived only a short
time and Arnulf succeeded to the whole inheritance." {-Encyclopaedia

Notes:

Arnulf was preoccupied with fighting off the Northmen. "In his old age he
placed the government in the hands of Baldwin, his son by Adela, daughter
of the count of Vermandois, and the young man in a short reign did much for
the commercial and industrial progress of the country, setting up the first
weavers and fullers at Ghent, and instituting yearly fairs at Ypres, Bruges
and other places. On Baldwin III's death in 961 the old count resumed
control and spent the few remaining years of his life in securing the
succession of his grandson Arnulf II...." {Encycl.Brit., 1956, 9:356}I married Vermandois, Alix de in Feb 934. Alix (daughter of Herbert, Count of Vermandois II and Liegarde, of France) died in 960 in Bruges. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:
[dunbar_tree.FTW]
Robert Beaumont was a young man at the Battle of Hastings. As a vassal of William he was
present at the Council of War at Lillebonne and provided ships for the crossing. He commanded
a troop on the right wing and according to William of Poitiers attacked with effectiveness and
bravery in what was his first battle. He was made Earl of Leicester after the battle. Robert
was first Earl of Leicester, Lord of Beaumont, Pont-Audemar, et Brionne (France), Comte de
Meulan (Normandy) - a typical nobleman in the Norman army of occupation, holding lands and
titles on both sides of the Channel. His wife, Isabel, married secondly William de Warenne,
2nd Earl of Surrey/Warren (q.v.). Robert fought at Hastings and had added large estates in
Warwickshire to the Norman fiefs gained when his father entered the Abbey of St. Peter at
Preaux. Under Henry I Robert became "the first among the counsellors of the king." A
"strenuous and sagacious man," he served well in the Norman wars of William II and Henry I
(who owed his crown to Robert). Henry of Huntingdon states that Robert is "the wisest man
between this and Jerusalem." At Robert's death his lands were apparently divided between his
twin sons, Robert and Waleran, while a third son, Hugh, became Earl of Bedford in 1138.
(-Encyclopedia Britannica, 1956, 3:274) Robert's brother, Henry de Newburgh, b. ca. 1046, d.
