Hi, I noticed a date confusion regarding the marriage of Richildis and Thierry d'Avesnes. To my best knowledge, Baldwin and Yolande were married in 1107, so I would say Richildis was most likely born after this date. However, Thierry died in 1106. So how it is possible that they were married?

Or maybe this Richildis is confused with Richildis, daughter of Baldwin II, Count of Hainaut, who was born in 1095 and could be the wife of Thierry.

Gertrude/Ida of Hainaut, married before 9 August 1138 to Roger of Tosny of Conches and Flamsted.[1]

the Roger of Tosny linked died in 1040, this should be linked to Roger III of Tosny. See FR WP and DE WP, and also FMG (http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/HAINAUT.htm#_Toc280375831), Even the sole "published" reference reads thus - Roger III De Toeni, also Styled De Conches, b. abt. 1104, d. aft. 29 sept 1158, Lord of Flamstead, Co. Hertford; m. abt 9 Aug. 1138, Ida of hainaut, dau. of Baldwin III........... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.130.39.224 (talk) 04:04, 1 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
