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
Britannica, 1956 Edition, 9:356}

II married Alfrith, Princess Lady in 884. Lady (daughter of Alfred King of England and Ealhswith) died on 7 Jun 929. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

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}

[Parents are presumed - cf. W.H.Turton, "The Plantagenet Ancestry" (Balt.: Gen.Pub.Co., 1968), p. 112. "Ancestral Roots..." (Balt., 1992) 250-17 reports she is Eldegarde, (dau. or niece of Ermenfroi, Count of Amiens ?, prob. a Carolingian princess),
who m. (2) Waleran, a count...." However, it is highly unlikely that this Hildegarde of Flanders could have been the daughter of Arnulf I "The Elder", Count of Flanders -- if Raoul died in 936 and Arnulf married Alix De Vermandois in February 934.
Supposedly Hildegarde is a daughter from this marriage, but it appears unlikely even if the years are not exactly correct that a daughter of this marriage married Raoul De Gouy.]

Hildegarde married Gouy, Raoul ("Ralph") de on Yes, date unknown. Raoul died in 936. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
