Individual Details

Reginar II, Count of Hainaut

(890 - 932)

According to Wikipedia:

History
He was the son of Reginar I Longneck, and this means his paternal grandmother was possibly a daughter of Charles the Bald and Ermentrude.

Flodoard's Annals, reports under the year 924 that Reginar the brother of Duke Gilbert of Lotharingia already had a son who was given as a hostage during conflicts between several of the Lotharingian magnates of the time.[2]

By 943 he was dead, because a charter made in favor of his widowed daughter was done partly in the name of atoning for his sins.[3]

Family
Reginar II had at least three children with Adelaide of Burgundy:

Reginar III, Count of Hainaut
Rudolf, possibly a Count in the Hesbaye
Possibly Liethard or Liechard, a son mentioned in one 966 charter as a son of a Count Reginar.
A daughter who married to Nibelung, Count of Betuwe.
Upon his death, Reginar was succeeded as Count of Hainaut by his son and namesake.
