Name Suffix:of Hainault
Margaret II, Countess of Flanders
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Margaret, called of Constantinople (1202–1278) was countess of Flanders from 1244 to 1278 and countess of Hainaut from 1244 to 1246. Her coat of arms was "Chevronny or and sable".
[edit]
Biography
She was the younger daughter of Baldwin I of Constantinople, who was also count of Flanders and Hainaut, and Marie of Champagne. He left on the Fourth Crusade before she was born, and her mother left two years later, leaving Margaret and her older sister Jeanne in the guardianship of their uncle Philip of Namur.
After her mother died in 1204, and her father the next year, the now-orphaned Margaret and her sister remained under Philip's guardianship until 1208, when he gave their wardship to King Philip II of France.
In 1212 Margaret married Bouchard d'Avesnes, a prominent Hainaut nobleman. This was apparently a love match, though it was approved by Margaret's sister Jeanne, who had herself recently married. The two sisters subsequently had a falling-out over Margaret's share of their inheritance, which led Jeanne to attempt to get Margaret's marriage dissolved. She alleged that the marriage was invalid, and without much inspection of the facts of the case Pope Innocent III condemned the marriage, though he did not formally annul it.
Bourchard and Margaret continued as a married couple, having two children, as their conflict with Jeanne grew violent and Bouchard was captured and imprisoned in 1219. He was released in 1221 on the condition that the couple separate and that Bouchard get absolution from the pope. While he was in Rome, Jeanne convinced Margaret to re-marry, this time to William of Dampierre, a nobleman from Champagne. From this marriage Margaret had a son: Guy of Dampierre.
This situation caused something of a scandal, for the marriage was possibly bigamous, and violated the church's strictures on consanguinity as well. The disputes regarding the validity of the 2 marriages and the legitimacy of her children by each husband continued for decades, becoming entangled in the politics of the Holy Roman Empire.
In 1246 king Louis IX of France, acting as an arbitrator, gave the right to inherit Flanders to the Dampierre children, and the rights to Hainaut to the Avesnes children. This would seem to have settled the matter, but in 1253 problems arose again. The eldest son, John d'Avesnes was uneasy about his rights, convinced William II, Count of Holland to seize Hainaut and the parts of Flanders which were within the bounds of the empire. William of Holland was, as emperor-elect, overlord for these territories, and also John's brother-in-law. A civil war followed, which ended when the Avesnes forces defeated and imprisoned the Dampierres at the Battle of Walcheren.

Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre.
http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marguerite_de_Constantinople
Marguerite II de Flandre (°v.1202 † 1280) ou Marguerite de Hainaut ou Marguerite de Constantinople, comtesse de Flandre et de Hainaut de 1244 à 1280. Elle était la fille cadette du comte Baudouin IX, comte de Flandre et de Hainaut, puis empereur latin de Constantinople et de Marie de Champagne (°1174 † 1204). Marguerite est la sœur de la comtesse, Jeanne de Flandre (°1188 † 1244)
En 1202, Baudouin participe à la quatrième croisade, et Marie le rejoint deux ans plus tard, confiant Marguerite encore bébé et sa sœur Jeanne, aux bons soins de leur oncle Philippe de Namur, évêque de Liège. La mère de Jeanne meurt en 1205, et son père, l'année suivante. Philippe de Namur qui assure la régence à son plus grand profit, confie les deux filles au roi de France, Philippe-Auguste. Celui-ci à son tour concède leur garde à Enguerrand III de Coucy.
En 1212 Marguerite se marie avec Bouchard d'Avesnes (1182-1244), bailli du Hainaut et sous-diacre de l'Eglise de Laon. Concernant la part de succession de Marguerite, les deux sœurs se déchirent, Jeanne tentant de dissoudre le mariage, alléguant qu'il était inadmissible. Sans beaucoup d'instruction des faits, le pape Innocent III se contente de condamner le mariage, sans pour autant formellement l'annuler.
Bouchard et Marguerite continuent de mener leur vie familiale, ayant deux enfants. Tant et si bien que leurs conflits avec Jeanne se développent. Bouchard est capturé et emprisonné en 1219. Il est libéré en 1221, à la condition que le couple se sépare et que Bouchard obtienne l'absolution du pape. Tandis qu'il était à Rome, Jeanne convainc Marguerite de se remarier, cette fois à Guillaume II de Dampierre, un noble de Champagne.
Cette situation fut la cause d'un véritable scandale, parce que Marguerite était de fait probablement bigame, et en violation des règles de l'Église. Les conflits concernant la validité des deux mariages et la légitimité des enfants, perturbent la politique du Saint Empire pendant des décennies.
À la mort de Jeanne, en 1244, Marguerite devient comtesse de Flandre et de Hainaut, succédant à sa sœur.
En 1246 le roi Louis IX de France, arbitre les droits de succession, donnant la Flandre aux enfants de Dampierre, et le Hainaut aux enfants d'Avesnes. Ceci semblerait avoir réglé la question, mais en 1253 de nouveaux problèmes surgissent. Jean le fils le plus âgé, d'Avesnes n'étant pas satisfait de son sort, convainc Guillaume II, comte de Hollande, son beau-frère, de s'emparer du Hainaut et des régions de Flandre qui se trouvent dans les limites de l'empire. Une guerre civile s'en suit, qui finit quand les forces d'Avesnes sont défaits à la bataille de Walcheren et Dampierre emprisonné.
Mariages et enfants
Elle épousa en premières noces en 1212 Bouchard d'Avesnes (1182 † 1244), seigneur d'Avesnes, bailli de Hainaut. Ils eurent :
* Baudouin († 1219)
* Jean (1218 † 1257),
* Baudoin d'Avesnes (1219 † 1289), seigneur de Beaumont
Obligée de se séparer de son époux en 1221, Marguerite se remarie en 1223 avec Guillaume II (1196 † 1231) seigneur de Dampierre. Ils eurent :
* Guillaume III (1224 † 1251), comte de Flandre et seigneur de Courtrai
* Gui de Dampierre (1225 † 1305), comte de Flandre et margrave de Namur
* Jean I († 1258), seigneur de Dampierre, vicomte de Troyes et connétable de Champagne
* Jeanne, mariée en 1239 à Hugues III de Rethel († 1243), comte de Rethel, puis en 1243 à Thiébaud II († 1291), comte de Bar

The disputes regarding the validity of the two marriages and the legitimacy of her children by each husband continued for decades, becoming entangled in the politics of the Holy Roman Empire and resulting in the long War of the Succession of Flanders and Hainault.
In 1246 king Louis IX of France, acting as an arbitrator, gave the right to inherit Flanders to the Dampierre children, and the rights to Hainaut to the Avesnes children. This would seem to have settled the matter, but in 1253 problems arose again. The eldest son, John d'Avesnes, who was uneasy about his rights, convinced William of Holland, the German king recognized by the pro-papal forces, to seize Hainaut and the parts of Flanders which were within the bounds of the empire. William of Holland was theoretically, as king, overlord for these territories, and also John's brother-in-law. A civil war followed, which ended when the Avesnes forces defeated and imprisoned the Dampierres at the Battle of Walcheren.

Margaret, called of Constantinople (2 June 1202 – 10 February 1280) was countess of Flanders from 1244 to 1278 and countess of Hainaut from 1244 to 1246.
She was the younger daughter of Baldwin I of Constantinople, who was also count of Flanders and Hainaut, and Marie of Champagne. He left on the Fourth Crusade before she was born, and her mother left two years later, leaving Margaret and her older sister Jeanne in the guardianship of their uncle Philip of Namur.
After her mother died in 1204, and her father the next year, the now-orphaned Margaret and her sister remained under Philip's guardianship until 1208, when he gave their wardship to King Philip II of France.
In 1212 Margaret married Bouchard d'Avesnes, a prominent Hainaut nobleman. This was apparently a love match, though it was approved by Margaret's sister Jeanne, who had herself recently married. The two sisters subsequently had a falling-out over Margaret's share of their inheritance, which led Jeanne to attempt to get Margaret's marriage dissolved. She alleged that the marriage was invalid, and without much inspection of the facts of the case Pope Innocent III condemned the marriage, though he did not formally annul it.
Bourchard and Margaret continued as a married couple, having two children, as their conflict with Jeanne grew violent and Bouchard was captured and imprisoned in 1219. He was released in 1221 on the condition that the couple separate and that Bouchard get absolution from the pope. While he was in Rome, Jeanne convinced Margaret to re-marry, this time to William II of Dampierre, a nobleman from Champagne. From this marriage Margaret had a son: Guy of Dampierre.

The eldest son, John d'Avesnes, who was uneasy about his rights, convinced William of Holland, the German king recognized by the pro-papal forces, to seize Hainaut and the parts of Flanders which were within the bounds of the empire. William of Holland was theoretically, as king, overlord for these territories, and also John's brother-in-law. A civil war followed, which ended when the Avesnes forces defeated and imprisoned the Dampierres at the Battle of Walcheren.

Margaret, called of Constantinople (2 June 1202 – 10 February 1280) was countess of Flanders from 1244 to 1278 and countess of Hainaut from 1244 to 1246.
She was the younger daughter of Baldwin I of Constantinople, who was also count of Flanders and Hainaut, and Marie of Champagne. He left on the Fourth Crusade before she was born, and her mother left two years later, leaving Margaret and her older sister Jeanne in the guardianship of their uncle Philip of Namur.
After her mother died in 1204, and her father the next year, the now-orphaned Margaret and her sister remained under Philip's guardianship until 1208, when he gave their wardship to King Philip II of France.
In 1212 Margaret married Bouchard d'Avesnes, a prominent Hainaut nobleman. This was apparently a love match, though it was approved by Margaret's sister Jeanne, who had herself recently married. The two sisters subsequently had a falling-out over Margaret's share of their inheritance, which led Jeanne to attempt to get Margaret's marriage dissolved. She alleged that the marriage was invalid, and without much inspection of the facts of the case Pope Innocent III condemned the marriage, though he did not formally annul it.
Bourchard and Margaret continued as a married couple, having two children, as their conflict with Jeanne grew violent and Bouchard was captured and imprisoned in 1219. He was released in 1221 on the condition that the couple separate and that Bouchard get absolution from the pope. While he was in Rome, Jeanne convinced Margaret to re-marry, this time to William II of Dampierre, a nobleman from Champagne. From this marriage Margaret had a son: Guy of Dampierre.
This situation caused something of a scandal, for the marriage was possibly bigamous, and violated the church's strictures on consanguinity as well. The disputes regarding the validity of the two marriages and the legitimacy of her children by each husband continued for decades, becoming entangled in the politics of the Holy Roman Empire and resulting in the long War of the Succession of Flanders and Hainault.

Margaret, called of Constantinople (2 June 1202 – 10 February 1280) was countess of Flanders from 1244 to 1278 and countess of Hainaut from 1244 to 1246.
She was the younger daughter of Baldwin I of Constantinople, who was also count of Flanders and Hainaut, and Marie of Champagne. He left on the Fourth Crusade before she was born, and her mother left two years later, leaving Margaret and her older sister Jeanne in the guardianship of their uncle Philip of Namur.
After her mother died in 1204, and her father the next year, the now-orphaned Margaret and her sister remained under Philip's guardianship until 1208, when he gave their wardship to King Philip II of France.
In 1212 Margaret married Bouchard d'Avesnes, a prominent Hainaut nobleman. This was apparently a love match, though it was approved by Margaret's sister Jeanne, who had herself recently married. The two sisters subsequently had a falling-out over Margaret's share of their inheritance, which led Jeanne to attempt to get Margaret's marriage dissolved. She alleged that the marriage was invalid, and without much inspection of the facts of the case Pope Innocent III condemned the marriage, though he did not formally annul it.
Bourchard and Margaret continued as a married couple, having two children, as their conflict with Jeanne grew violent and Bouchard was captured and imprisoned in 1219. He was released in 1221 on the condition that the couple separate and that Bouchard get absolution from the pope. While he was in Rome, Jeanne convinced Margaret to re-marry, this time to William II of Dampierre, a nobleman from Champagne. From this marriage Margaret had a son: Guy of Dampierre.
This situation caused something of a scandal, for the marriage was possibly bigamous, and violated the church's strictures on consanguinity as well. The disputes regarding the validity of the two marriages and the legitimacy of her children by each husband continued for decades, becoming entangled in the politics of the Holy Roman Empire and resulting in the long War of the Succession of Flanders and Hainault.
In 1246 king Louis IX of France, acting as an arbitrator, gave the right to inherit Flanders to the Dampierre children, and the rights to Hainaut to the Avesnes children. This would seem to have settled the matter, but in 1253 problems arose again. The eldest son, John d'Avesnes, who was uneasy about his rights, convinced William of Holland, the German king recognized by the pro-papal forces, to seize Hainaut and the parts of Flanders which were within the bounds of the empire. William of Holland was theoretically, as king, overlord for these territories, and also John's brother-in-law. A civil war followed, which ended when the Avesnes forces defeated and imprisoned the Dampierres at the Battle of Walcheren.
