Notes about Enguerrand II de Coucy Seigneur Coucy, Marle & Fere

Aboutedit | history
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enguerrand_II

Enguerrand II, Lord of Coucy, known as of La Fère or of Marle, was a French nobleman. He was also lord of Marle, La Fère, Crécy (sur-Serre), Vervins, Pinon, Landouzy (la-Ville), Fontaine (lès-Vervins), and of several other places. Unlike his father, the brigand-lord Thomas de Marle, Enguerrand II peacefully administered his lands, building a chapel in his castle (the chapel's foundations survive as some of the oldest remains in Coucy).

In 1131, he married Agnès de Beaugency, first cousin of king Louis VII of France, and daughter of Mahaut or Mathilde de Vermandois, herself a daughter of Hugh I of Vermandois, brother of king Philip I of France. Agnès gave him two sons, Raoul I, Lord of Coucy and Enguerrand.

His main leisure pursuit was hunting in the woods, where legend holds he meet and killed a fierce lion or beast which had been terrorising the area, and founded the Order of the Lion to commemorate the event.
