per Wikipedia (12/26/2103): [quote]The Battle of Bouvines, which took place on 27 July 1214, was a medieval battle which ended the twelve-year Angevin-Flanders War.[3] It was fundamental in the early development of France in the Middle Ages by confirming the French crown's sovereignty over the Angevin lands of Brittany and Normandy.
Philip Augustus of France defeated an army consisting of Imperial German, English and Flemish soldiers, led by Otto IV of Germany. Other leaders included Count Ferrand of Flanders, William de Longespee and Renaud of Boulogne. The defeat was so decisive that Otto was deposed and replaced by Frederick II Hohenstaufen; Ferrand and Renaud were captured and imprisoned and King John of England was forced to sign the Magna Carta by his discontented barons. Philip was himself able to take undisputed control of most of the territories in France that had belonged to King John of England, Otto's maternal uncle and ally.[end quote]¹¹

He succeeded his father in 1037 as Thibaut III, comte de Blois, de Chartes, de Châteaudun, de Meaux, de Sancerre et de Troyes. He lost the county of Beauvais sometime after 1037.

     "Thibaud III de Blois (ou Thibaud Ier de Champagne)1 (Thibault, Thibaud, Thibaut), né vers 1019, mort à Épernay le 29 ou 30 septembre 1089, est le fils d'Eudes II de Blois et d'Ermengarde d'Auvergne. Puissant maître de maison féodale, le comte de Blois commence une longue carrière politique. D'abord rejeté au nord et à l'ouest de ses domaines, en contrées par trop turbulentes, il accroît finalement son emprise politique et guerrière à l'est en devenant comte de Champagne.
Un patron politique de l'époque féodale
     "L'héritier de la maison de Blois devient comte de Blois, Tours, Châteaudun, Chartres, Sancerre, Provins, Saint-Florentin, Château-Thierry de 1037 à 1089 et de Troyes, Meaux, Vitry de 1066 à 1089.
     "Thibaud III perd Beauvais après 1037. En outre, battu à la bataille de Nouy, près de Tours assiégée en 1044, il abandonne le pouvoir concret sur la Touraine, saisie par la maison rivale d'Anjou menée par Geoffroy II Martel. Il a dû aussi en perdre le titre car le roi de France Henri Ier, à qui il a refusé de prêter hommage, l'en a dépossédé virtuellement pour le remettre tout aussi virtuellement à son vainqueur. Mais le traité qu'Angevins et Blésois signent à la fin de la bataille n'est qu'une passation de fief.
     "L'influence compromise à l'ouest, il reste à la maison de Blois de reprendre le chemin des conquêtes à l'est. En 1063-65, son neveu Eudes III de Champagne, dont il a la tutelle, se révolte contre lui. Thibaud en profite pour conquérir la Champagne et devient comte de Champagne (Thibaud Ier), instaurant ainsi la puissante maison de Blois-Champagne. Protecteur des abbayes, il favorise la réforme monastique.
     "Il a le rare privilège de voir un tout jeune parent accéder à la canonisation, Thibaut de Provins, son filleul germain2.
     "L'un de ses petits-fils, Thibaut IV de Blois (ou II de Champagne), dit Thibaud le Grand, comte de Blois-Champagne († 1152), se fait inhumer à l'abbaye Saint-Pierre de Lagny-sur-Marne pour signifier son implantation en Champagne face au Capétien3.
     "Un autre petit-fils, Étienne de Blois (puis d'Angleterre) († 1154), s'empare en 1135 du trône anglais aux dépens de sa cousine Mathilde, fille d'Henri Ier d'Angleterre, et de son frère aîné Thibaut IV.
Mariages
     "Thibaud III de Blois épouse Gersende, fille du comte Herbert Ier du Maine, avant de la répudier en 1048. Il est possible qu'il épouse ensuite Gundrade, dont l'existence ne nous est connue que par un seul document. Il est possible que Gundrade soit une transcription déformée du prénom Gersende, celui de sa première épouse.

; Per Med Lands:
     "THIBAUT de Blois, son of EUDES II Comte de Blois & his second wife Ermengarde d'Auvergne ([1010]-29/30 Sep 1089, bur Epernay). The Liber Modernorum Regum Francorum names "Tetbaudus et Stephanus" as the two sons of Comte Eudes, specifying that Thibaut succeeded in "Carnotensem et Turonensem"[146]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Theobaldi filii Odonis Campaniensis" when recording that he lost Tours in 1041[147]. "Odo comes filius [Odonis comitis]" confirmed a donation of his father by charter dated to [1032/37], subscribed by "Tetbaldi filii eius, matris eius Ermengardis…Hervei vicecomitis"[148]. He succeeded his father in 1037 as THIBAUT III Comte de Blois, de Chartres, de Châteaudun, de Meaux, de Sancerre et de Troyes. He lost Beauvais some time after 1037. Guillaume de Jumièges records that "comitem Tetbaldum" was captured by Geoffroy Comte d'Anjou who extorted the town of Tours from him by force[149]. The Chronica Rainaldi records that "Tetbaldus, filius Odonis comitis" was captured by "Goffrido comite Andecavorum" in 1044 after which the city of Tours surrendered[150]. Comte de Bar-sur-Aube, presumably after 1077, maybe de iure uxoris. The necrology of Saint-Père-en-Vallée records the death "II Kal Oct" of "Tebaldus comes Carnotensium"[151]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records that "comes Theobaldus [filius Odonis]" was buried "apud Spernacum"[152].
     "m firstly (repudiated 1048) as her first husband, GERSENDE du Maine, daughter of HERIBERT [I] "Euigilans Canis/Eveille-chien" Comte du Maine & his wife ---([1025/35]-). The Actus pontificum Cenomannis records that "Atho marchisius" left Maine in the hands of "Gaufridi de Meduana", also naming "uxor eiusdem marchisii Garcendis…filia Herberti Cenomannorum…comitis…Evigila Canem" and specifying that she had married firstly "Theobaldo duci Campanie" and that he had repudiated her[153]. She married secondly as his second wife, Alberto Azzo II d'Este. Orderic Vitalis records that "Hugo filius Herberti" and his wife “Bertam ipsius relictam, Tedbaldi Blesensium comitis sororem” had “filium...Herbertum et tres filias”, of whom one married “Azsoni marchiso Liguriæ” (which would be difficult to sustain chronologically and confuses the children of Hugues [IV] Comte du Maine with his sisters)[154].
     "[m secondly ([1050/55]) GUNDRADA, daughter of --- (-[1055/60]). Her marriage is confirmed by the charter dated 1089 under which “Stephanus comes” donated property to the abbey of Pontlevoy, for the souls of “Theobaldi comitis patris mei et matris meæ Gundreæ…”[155]. It is assumed that she died soon after giving birth to her son. Another possibility is that “Gundreæ” in this charter is in fact a distorted transcription of “Gersendæ”, the name of Thibaut’s known first wife. This cannot be verified unless another primary source emerges which names the mother of Comte Etienne.]
     "m [secondly/thirdly] (before 1061) ADELA [Alix], daughter of --- (-12 May [1093/1100], bur Saint-Faron). "Adeladis comitisse" subscribed the donation to Cluny by "Rotrocus castri Mauritanie comes atque Dunensis castri vicecomes" dated 11 Jan 1078, immediately after "Tetbaldi comitis, Stephani comitis"[156], it being assumed that she was the wife of the former not the latter. Her parentage is uncertain. According to the Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines, "Alaydis soror sancti Symonis" married "comiti Campanie Theobaldo", although Alberic confuses her with her supposed niece Adelais, daughter of Héribert [IV] Comte de Vermandois, saying that she married "Hugoni fratri regis Philippi" after the death of her husband[157]. If Alberic is correct, the [second/third] wife of Comte Thibaut III was Adela [Alix] de Valois, daughter of Raoul [III] de Crépy Comte du Vexin et de Valois & his first wife Aelis de Bar-sur-Aube. The difficulty with Alberic’s statement is an undated charter, quoted by Acta Sanctorum, under which "Rodulfus comes" [identified as Comte Raoul [III]] donated property to Saint-Rémy, confirmed by "Symonem filium meum, duos quoque generos meos, quos de filiabus meis habeo, id est Heribertum comitem et juvenem…Bartholomeum"[158]. If the wife of Thibaut III Comte de Blois had been another daughter of Comte Raoul [III], it is unclear why Thibaut would have been omitted from this document which appears to indicate clearly that Raoul had only two sons-in-law. Nevertheless, a close relationship with the family of the comtes de Valois is indicated by a charter dated to [1077/81] under which "Teobaudus comes palatinus…cum mulierum Adelaide" donated property to Montiérender, naming "bone memorie predecessorum…patris sui Odonis comitis et Heriberto cognomento senioris…comes Rodulfus predecessor suus et propinquus"[159], the latter presumably referring to Comte Raoul [III]. In addition, Comte Thibaut acquired the county of Bar-sur-Aube. If he had not been Raoul’s son-in-law, the basis for this acquisition is unclear. The necrology of Saint-Loup, Troyes records the death "XII Mai" of "Aalais uxor Theobaudi comitis Campaniæ" and her burial "in monasterio Sancti Faronis"[160]. "

     "Theobald III of Blois (French: Thibaut) (1012–1089) was count of Blois, Meaux and Troyes. He was son of Odo II, Count of Blois[1] and Ermengarde of Auvergne.[2]
Inherits Blois
     "Upon his father's death in 1037, Theobald inherited amongst others the counties of Blois,[1] Tours, Chartres. Châteaudun and Sancerre, and also in Champagne: Château-Thierry, Provins and St. Florentin. His brother Stephen inherited the counties of Meaux, Troyes and Vitry-le-François. By 1044, Geoffrey Martel, the Count of Anjou, was besieging Tours and Theobald responded by attempting to relieve the city.[3] They met in battle at Nouy and Theobald was captured and had to give up the county of Touraine in order to regain his freedom.[3] From then on the centre of power for the House of Blois moved to Champagne.
     "In 1054, Theobald recognized the Holy Roman Emperor, Henry III as his liege which precipitated a meeting at Ivois between Henry I and the emperor.[4] Theobald found ways to become close to the royal court again and gained political influence and began calling himself, Count Palatine.[1]
Gains Champagne
     "Theobald's nephew, Odo, Count of Champagne joined the army of William the Conqueror and participated in the Norman conquest of England. Theobald used his nephew's absence and his own influence at court to gain control over Odo's possessions in Champagne.[1] He had gained a position of considerable power, which increased when he married the daughter of Ralph IV of Valois. From 1074 onward, he left his son Henry in control of Blois, Châteaudun and Chartres.
Death
     "Following Theobald's death in 1089, Philip I, King of France, was able to arrange for Blois and Champagne to be divided between Theobald's sons.[1]
Family and children
     "Theobald's first wife Gersent of Le Mans,[2] daughter of Herbert I, Count of Maine, who bore him one child:
     "His second wife Alix de Crepy (Adela) or Adele of Valois,[5] daughter of Ralph IV of Valois and Adélaide of Bar-sur-Aube, bore four children:

In a post by Todd Farmerie (see below), the mother of Ermengarde d'Auvergne would evidently be Ermengarde de Brioude, daughter of Étienne de Brioude, Count of Gévaudan, and Adele d'Anjou, who married Robert III, Count d'Auvergne, d. 1032. (IIRC, Weis has no, or a different ancestry). Ermengarde/Humberga are simply variants of the same name, I'd guess the former being of french derivation; the latter, german..... There is more information, esp on the De Brioude ancestry, in the archives....
Hope this helps, Roger

Orderic Vitalis records that “primus Normannorum Stephanus de Albamarla filius Odonis Campaniæ comitis” fortified “castellum suum super Aucium flumen” at the expense of William II King of England and placed there a garrison against “ducem” [Robert III Duke of Normandy], dated to [1089/90][105]. Florence of Worcester records that "comitem Odonem de Campania…Stephani patrem" was imprisoned in [1096] for his part in the conspiracy which planned to place his son on the English throne[106]. He lost the lordship of Holderness. Albert of Aix names "…Stephanus de Albemarla filius Udonis comitis de Campania…" among those who took part in the siege of Nikaia, dated to mid-1097 from the context[107]. "…Stephanus de Albamarla…" subscribed a charter dated 8 Aug 1111 under which Henry I King of England confirmed the episcopate of Somerset at Bath[108]. He is referred to as “comes Odo” in the Lindsey survey 1115/18.

Robert de Torigny names "Aeliz" as the daughter of Duke Robert II "de alia concubina" from Herleve[109]. The foundation charter of Saint-Martin d’Auchy names “Engueranni consulis qui filius fuit Berte supradicti Guerinfridi filie et Adelidis comitisse uxoris sue sororis…Willelmi Regis Anglorum”[110]. She retained the title Comtesse d'Aumâle after her first marriage. Her second marriage is deduced from the same charter of Saint-Martin d’Auchy which also names “Judita comitissa domine supradicte filia”[111]. Orderic Vitalis records that King William I granted "comitatum Hildernessæ" to "Odoni...Campaniensi nepoti Theobaldi comitis" who had married "sororem...regis filiam...Rodberti ducis"[112]. William I King of England donated various properties to the abbey of La Trinité de Caen, including "burgum de Hulmo" with the consent of "Adelisa amita mea…cujus hereditas erat sed et comitissa A. de Albamarla…in vita sua", by charter dated 1082[113].

Med Lands cites: Eudes/Odo III de Champagne Comte de Troyes et d'Aumale, Cte de Champagne, Earl of Holderness lived at an unknown place ; Per Wikipedia:
     "Odo (Modern French: Eudes; c.?1040–1115)[1] was Count of Troyes and of Meaux from 1047 to 1066, then Count of Aumale from 1069 to 1115. He was later also known as the count of Champagne and as Eudes II of Troyes.
Biography
     "Odo was the son of Stephen II of Troyes and Meaux, and Adele.[2] He was still a minor at the death of his father, and his uncle Theobald III of Blois acted as regent of Troyes.[citation needed]
     "In 1060, Odo married Adelaide of Normandy, daughter of Robert I, Duke of Normandy and widow of Enguerrand II, Count of Ponthieu, Lord of Aumale and Lambert II, Count of Lens.[1] After the death of Enguerrand's only daughter Adelaide, her mother Adelaide of Normandy became her heir and hence through his marriage Odo acquired the title Count (or Earl) of Aumale in Normandy Jure uxoris (by right of his wife).[3]
     "Adelaide (sometime called Adeliza) was also sister of William the Conqueror,[1] and Odo accompanied his brother-in-law in the Norman conquest of England (1066).[3] Theobald III of Blois then seized Odo's counties in the Champagne region,[citation needed] One version states William I, for his services in the conquest gave Odo Holderness in Yorkshire.[3] Another proposes that the Lordship of Holderness was granted to William's sister Adelaide, in 1087, and Odo became Earl of Holderness by right of his wife.
     "Odo was, with Alan Rufus and Roger of Poitou, one of the commanders of the army sent by King William II to besiege William de St-Calais at Durham Castle after the Rebellion of 1088, and who signed St-Calais's guarantee of personal safety.
     "Odo was implicated in a plot to place his son Stephen of Aumale on the English throne.[4] Stephen was the first cousin of brothers William Rufus, King of England and Robert Curthose, Duke of Normandy.[5] Stephen was apparently not put on trial himself as he may have been out of the king's reach in Normandy.[6] Odo was imprisoned in 1095.[citation needed] Odo lost his English lands for his complicity[7] but they were restored to Stephen two years after the death of William Rufus.
Family
     "Odo had one son with Adelaide: Stephen, Count of Aumale (died 1127).[8]
     "In 1902 Richard Langrishe published a paper in which he put forward the theory that Odo was the primogenitor of the Irish family of Le Gras (Grace).[3] This amended an older theory that Raymond FitzGerald (died 1185/1198) was the primogenitor.[9] However Richard Roach (1970) upheld the older proposition, but more recently M. T. Flanagan (2004) disagreed with Roach because FitzGerald had no known legitimate heirs.[10][11]

     "Eudes III de Champagne1, mort après 1115/1118[réf. nécessaire], est comte de Troyes et de Meaux d'environ 1045-48 à 1063-65. En Normandie, il est dit « comte » (sans jamais être désigné comte d'Aumale) ou « comte de Champagne », après 1065-70, et en Angleterre, il est seigneur d'Holderness (Yorkshire de l'Est) de 1086-87 à 1095.
Biographie
     "Il est le fils d'Étienne II, comte de Troyes et de Meaux, et d'Adèle. Il est encore mineur à la mort de son père, et son oncle Thibaut III, comte de Blois assure sa tutelle1. Thibaud III de Blois en profite pour reformer la grande principauté bléso-champenoise qui existait du temps de son père Eudes II de Blois († 1037)1. Se faisant, il se rapproche du roi Henri Ier de France, notamment en participant aux nombreuses campagnes du roi contre la Normandie1. Du coup, à la fin de la minorité d'Eudes, qui doit se situer vers 10582, il obtient que celui-ci devienne son vassal et non celui du roi1.
     "En 1063-65, Eudes se révolte contre son oncle1. Il compromet les efforts de celui-ci pour consolider sa principauté, en donnant au roi de France, par l'intermédiaire de l'évêque de Châlons, le contrôle total de la ville de Châlons1. Peu après, Eudes s'enfuit de Champagne1. D'après la tradition, rapportée par la chronique de l'abbaye de Meaux, Eudes trouve refuge en Normandie après avoir été accusé du meurtre de l'un de ses principaux vassaux1. Il est possible qu'Eudes ait envisagé, pour lui ou son fils Étienne, un retour à la tête de la Champagne1. Quoi qu'il en soit, l'alliance bléso-normande, scellée en 1080-85 par le mariage d'Étienne-Henri de Blois et Adèle de Normandie met fin à cette possibilité1.
     "Entre 1065 et 10701, quelque temps après son arrivée en Normandie, Eudes obtient la main d'Adélaïde de Normandie, la demi-sœur de Guillaume le Conquérant, le duc de Normandie1. Elle est veuve en premières noces d'Enguerrand II, comte de Ponthieu, et en secondes noces de Lambert II, comte de Lens1.
     "Après leur mariage, il obtient du duc de ne pas retourner en Champagne, où la situation est trop dangereuse pour lui1. Il obtient aussi, en droit de sa femme, la cité d'Aumale avec dix chevaliers de l'archevêque de Rouen, charge à lui de porter l'étendard de l'archevêque lorsqu'il utilise ces hommes1.
     "Dans les actes qui nous sont parvenus, Eudes n'est jamais désigné comme « comte d'Aumale », mais simplement comme « comte » (sans précision) ou « comte de Champagne »1. Seule sa femme est désignée « comtesse d'Aumale », pour la première fois en 1082 lors d’une charte de donation de Guillaume le Conquérant et sa femme Mathilde de Flandre, en faveur de l'abbaye aux Dames de Caen1. L'acte mentionne les donations faites par Adélaïde et ses enfants, mais Eudes n'est pas mentionné comme bienfaiteur1. De même, dans les chartes de donation de son fils Étienne, son père n'est jamais mentionné, mais uniquement sa mère1. Pour l'historien Pierre Bauduin, c'est peut-être à cause de l'inconsistance du personnage, qui ne possède rien à son nom et qui est simplement le représentant de sa femme, chargé de remplir les obligations militaires que sa femme ne peut accomplir1.
     "En 1086-87, le Conquérant lui donne l'honneur d'Holderness, dans le Yorkshire de l'Est (Angleterre)1. En 1088 a lieu en Angleterre une rébellion de barons cherchant à réunir l'Angleterre et la Normandie sous un même commandement. Lorsque les terres de l'évêque de Durham Guillaume de Saint-Calais sont saisies, son neveu Guillaume le Roux, roi d'Angleterre, donne à Eudes une partie de celles se trouvant dans le Yorkshire3. Il est plus tard l'un des lieutenants d'une force envoyée au nord par le roi pour arrêter l'évêque de Durham. Plus tard, il fait partie des trois juges laïcs au procès pour trahison de l'évêque4.
     "En 1095, il est impliqué dans une conspiration ratée contre son neveu Guillaume le Roux5. D'après le chroniqueur Jean de Worcester, les conspirateurs avaient l'intention de tuer leur suzerain et de le remplacer sur le trône par Étienne, le fils d'Eudes. Il est puni par le roi, peut-être emprisonné, et ses terres anglaises lui sont confisquées6. Arnoul de Montgommery reçoit l'année suivante les terres du Yorkshire et du Lincolnshire qui avaient auparavant appartenu à Eudes. Lorsque Arnoul est lui-même banni d'Angleterre, en 1102, le roi Henri Ier les donne à Étienne d'Aumale7.

     "Gerhard I Flaminius was born about 1060, the son of Dietrich Flamens. He was the first count of Gelre from the family of Flamens. After 1086 he married Clémence de Poitou, heiress of Gleiberg, widow of Konrad I, Graf von Luxemburg, and the daughter of Guillaume V-VII, duke of Aquitaine, comte de Poitou, and Ermesinde de Longwy. They had three children, Yolande, Judith and Gerhard, who would have progeny.
     "Gerhard was mentioned in 1085 as count of Wassenberg, and in 1096 for the first time as count of Gelre. The title of Landgrave also appears in 1096.
     "Gerhard at different times called himself after Wassenberg (Gerhard III von Wassenberg) and after Gelre (Gerhard I von Gelre), until the designation of Gelre prevailed in 1118. As the possessor of the imperial stewardship and of a church stewardship and as an allodial landowner, Gerhard considered that his sphere of influence had shifted to Gelre by 1098. As a result of this shift the castle of Gelre was probably started about then; it was mentioned by 1237. Gerhard was the largest secular ruler after the duke of Brabant and count of Luxembourg-Namur in Lower Lotharingia. As the sole ruler in his region he remained strongly loyal to the empire.
     "The year of his death is not known, but it probably occurred before 1138, possibly before 8 March 1129."⁹

Her [first] marriage is confirmed by the charter dated 7 Jul 1083 under which "Conradus comes" founded the Benedictine abbey of Münster [Altmünster] in Luxembourg, with the consent of "uxore mea Clementia cum filiis et filiabus nostris"[114]. "Conradus cum uxore mea Clementia" founded the abbey of Münster at Luxembourg, with the consent of "filiis meis Henrico, Conradi et Wilhelmo", by charter dated 1080[115]. Meginher Archbishop of Trier confirmed the foundation of Kloster Schiffenberg by "Clementia…comitissa" with the consent of "filii sui Willehelmi et filie Irmesindis" by charter dated 17 Jun 1129[116]. Her supposed [second/third] marriage is confirmed by a second version of the charter confirming the foundation of Kloster Schiffenberg, dated 1129, which records the donation made by "Clementia comitissa de Glizberc…per manum Gerhardi mariti sui comitis de Gelre", with the consent of "palatine comitisse Gertrudis" [identified as Gertrud von Northeim, widow of Siegfried Graf von Orlamünde, Pfalzgrafen von Lothringen, and wife of Otto von Salm Graf von Rheineck, presumably a relative whose family relationship has not been traced, although see below for some speculation about this] to whom one fourth part of the property belonged[117]. Szabolcs de Vajay dismisses this supposed [second/third] marriage, considering that this second Schiffenberg document is a falsification[118]. However, the language of the document is not obviously anachronistic, the only surprising element being the large number of witnesses. The doubts surrounding the authenticity of these documents is discussed at length by Wyss[119]. "Clementia comitissa de Glizberg cum meis nepotibus Ottone et Wilhelmo" confirmed the foundation of Schiffenberg, with the consent of "domne Gertrudis palatine…[et] Adela filia eiusdem palatine", by charter dated 1141[120]. The documents relating to Clementia´s supposed [second/third] marriage also suggest a possible [second] marriage, because of the two references to her as “comitissa de Glizberc”. No primary source document has yet been identified in which Clementia´s [first] husband is described as “Graf von Gleiberg”. Nor has any record been found of the county of Gleiberg being held by her son by this [first] marriage, Guillaume [I] Comte de Luxembourg, nor by Guillaume´s son Conrad [II] Comte de Luxembourg. One possible explanation is that Clementia was not in fact heiress of Gleiberg, although she is often described as such in contemporary secondary sources, and that she was accorded the title in the 1129 and 1141 as the widow of an otherwise unidentified “Graf von Gleiberg” whom she married after the death of Conrad [I] Comte de Luxembourg. If that is correct, this shadowy [second] husband may have been the uncle or great-uncle of the cousins Otto and Wilhelm who are named above and who would have inherited the title after his death. If Clementia was dowager countess of Gleiberg, maybe continuing to hold part of the county as dower from her [second] husband, this would explain the necessity of her acting jointly with her nephews in the 1129 and 1141 documents. If all this speculation is correct, the consent given in the joint interest in the property in question held by Gertrud von Northeim and her daughter may provide an indication of the family origin of Clementia herself: maybe she was Gertrud´s maternal aunt, a member of the Braunschweig family?

; Per Wikipedia:
     "Agnes of Babenberg (German: Agnes von Babenberg, Polish: Agnieszka Babenberg; b. ca. 1108/13 – d. 24/25 January 1163), was a German noblewoman, a scion of the Franconian House of Babenberg and by marriage High Duchess of Poland and Duchess of Silesia.
     "She was a daughter of Leopold III, Margrave of Austria, by his second wife, Agnes, second but eldest surviving daughter of Emperor Henry IV.[1][citation needed]
Life
Family and personality
     "Through her mother, Agnes was a descendant of the Salian Dynasty, which ruled the Holy Roman Empire since 1024 until her maternal uncle, Emperor Henry V, died without issue in 1125. She was the half-sister of Frederick II, Duke of Swabia, and Conrad III, King of Germany since 1138 (both born from her mother's first marriage with Frederick I, Duke of Swabia). Of her full-siblings, one sister Judith married Marquess William V of Montferrat and one brother was Bishop Otto of Freising, a renowned medieval chronicler.
     "According to Wincenty Kad?ubek, Polish chronicler and Bishop of Kraków (and this opinion is shared by other sources), Agnes was a very ambitious, energetic woman, and proud of her origins. It is no wonder the Bishop called her in the pages of his Polish Chronicle, "Tigress" (Polish: tygrysica).
Marriage
     "The ruler of Poland, Duke Boles?aw III Wrymouth, in order to hold his ground against the Empire wanted to obtain a powerful ally against Lothair III of Supplinburg, who in 1125 had been elected King of the Romans against Duke Frederick II of Swabia. He therefore forged an alliance with the Babenbergs and the Hohenstaufen families, who, as relatives of the extinct Salian dynasty, were the natural rivals of Lothair. In order to seal this alliance, a marriage between Boles?aw III's eldest son W?adys?aw and Agnes was agreed. The wedding took place around 1125; according to some historians, the couple had already received the Duchy of Silesia from Boles?aw III as a gift.
High Duchess of Poland
     "Boles?aw III died on 28 October 1138. In his will, he divided Poland between his sons. As the oldest son, the supreme authority in the country was assigned to W?adys?aw II with the title of high duke (princeps). In addition to Silesia, he received the Seniorate Province (which included Lesser Poland, eastern Greater Poland and western Kuyavia) and the authority over Pomerania. His half-brothers Boleslaw IV, Mieszko III and Henry received hereditary fiefs as junior dukes. In addition, W?adys?aw II would also receive the lands of ??czyca, then granted by Boles?aw III to his widow, Salomea of Berg, for life as her dower and to revert to the Seniorate Province upon her death.
     "Almost immediately, the high duke began his efforts to unify the country under his rule. Wincenty Kad?ubek stated that the confrontation between W?adys?aw II and his half-brothers was mainly instigated by Agnes, who believed that her husband, as the eldest son, had the right to be the sole ruler of the whole country.
     "In order to strengthen the authority of the high duke, it is believed that Agnes took part in the downfall of one of the most powerful nobles in the country, the voivode Piotr W?ostowic, who supported the junior dukes. According to a legend, the capture of W?ostowic was thanks to Agnes, because she sent her own retainers to his castle and they captured him during the night. This event was recorded in German contemporary historiography; however, since this story is not confirmed, it not generally accepted by modern historians. Agnes demanded W?ostowic's death, but her husband decided instead to make an example of him. W?ostowic was blinded, muted and sentenced to exile.
Deposition and exile
     "The tyrannical rule of W?adys?aw II and Agnes led to many of their subjects switching their allegiance to the junior dukes. In early 1146 the high duke's forces were finally defeated near Pozna?. W?adys?aw II escaped to Bohemia, while Agnes and her children remained in Kraków, where for some time they maintained resistance against the junior dukes from the Wawel Castle. However, the attempts to defend the city were unsuccessful and, in the end, the whole family was reunited in exile.
     "After a short time at the Bohemian court of Duke Vladislaus II, Agnes' half-brother, King Conrad III of Germany, offered his hospitality to the Polish ducal family, who settled at the Kaiserpfalz of Altenburg. At first, it seemed that W?adys?aw II would soon regain power in Poland. A German expedition against the junior dukes was launched in 1146, but due to flooding of the Oder River and the pressures on the German king by the margraves Albert the Bear and Conrad of Meissen, the campaign failed.
     "The failure of the expedition did not discourage Agnes, who continued with her attempts to restore her husband. She asked for the intervention of Pope Eugenius III, who decided to raise the question in the 1148 Council of Reims, and sent his legate Guy to Poland to obtain the submission of the junior dukes. However, they refused to accept the return of W?adys?aw II, and the pope declared a ban over Poland. The pope's actions had few repercussions thanks for the united support of the Polish church hierarchy for the junior dukes.
     "In 1152 King Conrad III died and was succeeded by his nephew Frederick Barbarossa. With the accession of this energetic ruler, the hopes of Agnes and W?adys?aw II of returning to Poland were rekindled. With the encouragement of his aunt, the new German king launched an expedition against Poland in 1157. The campaign was a success but unexpectedly Barbarossa did not restore W?adys?aw II to the Polish throne. Instead High Duke Boles?aw IV was declared a vassal of Emperor Frederick and was compelled to pay tribute to him. In compensation to W?adys?aw II, he forced Boles?aw to promise the restitution of the Silesian duchy to W?adys?aw's sons.
Death and aftermaths
     "Both Agnes and W?adys?aw II knew that their battle was finally lost. They remained in Altenburg, where W?adys?aw II died on 30 May 1159. Agnes' day of death is generally placed by sources between 24 and 25 January, but the year remained disputed among historians and sources. Certainly she survived her husband,[2] and it is known that she did not return to Silesia with her sons when they were finally restored in their heritage in 1163. Thus, it is believed that Agnes died between 1160 and 1163. She was buried in the Cistercian abbey of Pforta near Naumburg on the Saale river.
Children
     "Agnes and Wladyslaw had the following children:

     "Vladislaus II the Exile (Polish: W?adys?aw II Wygnaniec) (1105 – 30 May 1159) was a High Duke of Poland and Duke of Silesia from 1138 until his expulsion in 1146. He is the progenitor of the Silesian Piasts.
Life
Governor of Silesia
     "He was the eldest son of Duke Boles?aw III Wrymouth, sole ruler of Poland since 1107, by his first wife Zbyslava, a daughter of Sviatopolk II of Kiev. As the firstborn son, W?adys?aw's father decided to involve him actively in the government of the country. Some historians believe that Boles?aw III gave W?adys?aw the district of Silesia before his own death, in order to create an hereditary fief for his eldest descendants.
     "Around 1125 W?adys?aw married Agnes of Babenberg, daughter of Margrave Leopold III of Austria; this union gave him a close connection with the Holy Roman Empire and the Kingdom of Germany: Agnes by her mother was a granddaughter of Emperor Henry IV and a half-sister of the Franconian duke Conrad III of Hohenstaufen, the later King of Germany. Thanks to W?adys?aw, Silesia was saved during the wars of 1133–1135 with Bohemia: he stopped the destruction of the major areas of his district after the Bohemian forces crossed the Oder river.
     "In 1137, during the whitsun meeting with Duke Sob?slav I of Bohemia at Niemcza (other sources mention K?odzko), in which several disputed matters were decided, W?adys?aw stood as godfather in the baptism of the youngest son of Sob?slav, the future Duke Wenceslaus II.
High Duke of Poland
     "Duke Boles?aw III died on 28 October 1138. In his will, he sought to maintain the unity of the Polish lands as well as to prevent inheritance conflicts among his sons. He therefore determined a kind of mitigated primogeniture principle: As the oldest son, the supreme authority in the country was assigned to W?adys?aw with the title of a High Duke (Princeps). In addition to Silesia, he received the central Seniorate Province, stretching from Lesser Poland at Kraków to eastern Greater Poland and western Kuyavia, as well as the authority over the Pomerelian lands at Gda?sk on the Baltic Sea. His younger half-brothers Boles?aw IV the Curly and Mieszko III received the eastern Duchy of Masovia (composed of Masovia with eastern Kuyavia) and the western Duchy of Greater Poland (the remaining parts of Greater Poland with Lubusz Land) respectively, each as hereditary fiefs.
     "Upon the death of Boles?aw's widow Salomea of Berg, W?adys?aw would also receive her oprawa wdowia (a kind of usufruct pension) at ??czyca, which had to revert to the Seniorate. On the other hand, he was obliged to provide his youngest half-brother Henry with the lands of Sandomierz when he would come of age (though only for life). The district however was not separated from the Seniorate until 1146. The youngest of his half-brothers, the later High Duke Casimir II the Just was not assigned any province; it is speculated that he was born after Boles?aw III's death.
     "At the time of the death of his father, W?adys?aw was already an adult, with many years of marriage and at least one surviving son, Boles?aw I the Tall, born in 1127 (the date of birth of the second son, Mieszko IV Tanglefoot, is still debatable and varies between 1130 and 1146). Following the examples of his predecessors Boles?aw I Chrobry in 992, Mieszko II Lambert in 1032, and his own father in 1106, the High Duke almost immediately tried to restore the unity of the country. Given his life experience and military leadership, it was generally expected that in the end, he would be successful.
The First Conflicts with the Junior Dukes
     "The disputes of W?adys?aw with his stepmother Salomea and his half-brothers began openly in 1141, when the Dowager Duchess, without the knowledge and consent of the High Duke, commenced to divide her ??czyca province between her sons. Also, she tried to resolve the marriage of her youngest daughter Agnieszka and thus to find a suitable ally for her sons. The most appropriate candidate for a son-in-law had to be one of the sons of the Grand Prince Vsevolod II of Kiev. After hearing the news about the events in ??czyca, W?adys?aw decided to make a quick response, as a result of which the Grand Prince of Kiev not only broke all his pacts with the Junior Dukes, but also arranged the betrothal of his daughter Zvenislava to W?adys?aw's eldest son Boles?aw. The wedding took place one year later, in 1142.
     "His ties with the Kievan Rus' benefited him during 1142-1143, when W?adys?aw decided to fight against the districts of his brothers. W?adys?aw's victory was beyond dispute, being backed by his alliances with the Rus', Bohemia and the Holy Roman Empire.
The W?ostowic Affair and the Second part of the Fight with his brothers
     "During Wladyslaw's reign, the Silesian voivode (count palatine) Piotr W?ostowic had the greatest and most decisive impact. A firm follower of Duke Boles?aw III, he had soon acquired enormous political significance in the country, covering the most important court offices. In his prerogative as voivode he had the right to appoint officials in local authorities across Poland, including in the areas of the Junior Dukes, which made him the person from whose decisions was determined the fate of the state. In view of the conflict between her sons and W?adys?aw looming ahead, Boles?aw's wife Salomea of Berg intrigued against him, whereafter W?ostowic had to resign and was replaced by one of her minions. When W?adys?aw succeeded his father, he reinstated the voivode, however the increased power of W?ostowic fostered deep negative relations, especially with his wife Agnes of Babenberg, who - not without reason - considered him a traitor.
     "On 27 July 1144 Salomea of Berg, Duke Boles?aw's widow and W?ostowic's bitter enemy, died. As in accordance with the Duke's will, her province of ??czyca had to revert to the Senoriate Province of W?adys?aw, the voivode, in agreement with the Junior Dukes, planned a coup d'état in order to take the contested district, perhaps as emolument for the younger Henry. Again in this case, W?adys?aw appealed for aid to his Kievan allies. Without waiting the arrival of food he sent his troops against the forces of Boles?aw IV the Curly and Mieszko III; unexpectedly, W?adys?aw suffered a defeat. It wasn't until the arrival of the Kievans that the fate of the battle and the war turned to W?adys?aw's side. Immediately, a favourable peace treaty was made, which permitted the High Duke to take full control over ??czyca; however, he had to give to the Kievan cohorts, in exchange for their aid, the Polish castle at Wizna.
     "In the meanwhile, the tensions between W?adys?aw and Piotr W?ostowic worsened. The position of the Count Palatine in the civil war was clearly against the High Duke. This attitude clearly did not correspond with Wladyslaw's concept of autocracy, and after this episode he thought about the total removal of his brothers from their lands. By 1145 however, it seemed that a reconciliation between the High Duke and W?ostowic was possible, as evidenced by the invitation to W?adys?aw by the voivode on the occasion of W?ostowic's son wedding. At the beginning of the following year the High Duke, however, decided to bet everything on one gamble: eliminate W?ostowic from his life for good. He ordered one of his knights, Dobek, to capture him. Dobek arrived at W?ostowic's court at O?bin (in present-day Wroc?aw), and during the night captured the voivode with his men. High Duchess Agnes demanded W?ostowic's death, but W?adys?aw decided instead to make an example out of him: he was blinded, mutilated and sentenced to exile.
     "W?ostowic was respected and had many friends, and his fate caused many nobles to switch their allegiance to the Junior Dukes. Furthermore, the blinded W?ostowic fled to the Kievan Rus', which had so far supported W?adys?aw, and convinced them to break their alliance.
Deposition and Escape to Bohemia
     "At the beginning of 1146 W?adys?aw decided to make the final attack on his rivaling half-brothers. Initially, it seemed that victory of the High Duke was only a matter of time, since he managed to take Masovia without obstacles and forced Duke Boles?aw IV the Curly to withdraw to the defense of his brother Mieszko III at Pozna? in Greater Poland. There, unexpectedly, began W?adys?aw's disaster. The reason for this was the insecurity of his other districts, where mighty rebellions erupted against W?adys?aw's dictatorial politics. The rebels quickly grew in power thanks to the support of Archbishop Jakub ze ?nina of Gniezno, who excommunicated the High Duke – as a punishment for the fate of the voivode W?ostowic – resulting in an additional series of rebellions. The defeat at the end was thanks not only to the combined forces of Duke Bo?eslaw IV at Poznan with the troops of the other Junior Dukes, but also by W?adys?aw's own subjects, which was a total surprise to him. The High Duke was forced to flee abroad; shortly afterwards his wife Agnes and children joined him, after their unsuccessful attempts to defend Kraków.
     "The Junior Dukes had a complete success, and W?adys?aw was now under the mercy of his neighbours. Initially, he and his family stayed in the court of his namesake and brother-in-law Duke Vladislaus II of Bohemia at Prague Castle. The title of a High Duke was assumed by Bo?eslaw IV. W?adys?aw never returned to Poland.
Exile in Germany. Unsuccessful expedition of King Conrad III
     "Soon after his arrival in Bohemia, his brother-in-law King Conrad III of Germany offered him his hospitality. W?adys?aw shortly after moved to Germany and paid tribute to King Conrad and asked for assistance in regaining the throne.[1] As King Conrad had also been able to reinstate Vladislaus of Bohemia shortly before, it initially appeared that W?adys?aw would regain power over Poland very soon. The expedition against the Junior Dukes was launched in 1146, but due to flooding of the Oder river and the pressure on the German king by the margraves Albert the Bear and Conrad of Meissen, who showed no interest in an armed conflict at the German eastern border, the campaign finally failed.
     "W?adys?aw of course did not lose hope of changing his fate, but for now he had to accept the postponement of his return, particularly when Conrad III started the Second Crusade with King Louis VII of France to the Holy Land the next year. During this time, the former High Duke administrated the Kaiserpfalz at Altenburg and its dependencies in the Imperial Pleissnerland. Without waiting for German aid, W?adys?aw and his wife Agnes went to the Roman Curia and asked Pope Eugene III for help, but this attempt was also unsuccessful.
Death and Legacy
     "In 1152 King Conrad III died and was succeeded by his nephew Frederick Barbarossa. With this, the hopes of W?adys?aw of returning to Poland were reborn. Following the inducements of W?adys?aw and Frederick's aunt Agnes of Babenberg, the Holy Roman Emperor launched a new expedition to Greater Poland in 1157. The campaign was a success, but unexpectedly Frederick Barbarossa did not restore W?adys?aw to the Polish throne, after Boles?aw IV apprehended at Krzyszkowo had to declare himself a vassal to the Emperor and was compelled to pay tribute to him. In compensation, the Emperor forced Boles?aw IV to promise the restitution of Silesia to W?adys?aw's sons Boles?aw the Tall and Mieszko IV Tanglefoot.[2]
     "At this time, it appears, W?adys?aw knew that his battle for supremacy in Poland was finally lost. He remained in exile at Altenburg, where he died two years later. It was not until 1163 that Boles?aw IV finally granted the Silesian province to W?adys?aw's sons.
     "Apart from the question of an actual enfeoffment of W?adys?aw's sons by the Emperor, a disruption between them and their Piast cousins had occurred. In the following centuries, Silesia was divided into as many as 17 separate duchies among their descendants and successors, who from the early 14th century onwards gradually became vassals of the Imperial Kingdom of Bohemia. By the 1335 Treaty of Trentschin the Polish king Casimir III the Great renounced all claims to the Silesian lands, which remained under the rule of the Silesian Piasts until the male line of the dynasty finally became extinct with the death of Duke George William of Legnica in 1675.
Marriage and children
     "In 1125 W?adys?aw married Agnes of Babenberg (b. ca. 1108/1113 – d. at Altenburg, 24 January 1160/63), daughter of Margrave Saint Leopold III of Austria and Agnes of Germany,[3][4] who in turn was a daughter of Emperor Henry IV. She was also the half-sister of King Conrad III of Germany.
     "They had:
1. Boles?aw I the Tall (b. 1127 – d. 8 December 1201)[5]
2. Mieszko I Tanglefoot (b. ca. 1130 – 16 May 1211)[5]
3. Richeza (b. 1140 – d. 16 June 1185), married firstly in 1152 to Alfonso VII, King of Galicia, Castile and León,[6] secondly in 1162 to Ramon Berenguer II, Count of Provence and thirdly by 1167 to Count Albert III of Everstein.
4. Konrad Spindleshanks (b. 1146/57 – d. 17 January 1190).
5. Albert (d. young, ca. 1168).

     "W?ADYS?AW of Poland, son of BOLES?AW III "Krzywousty/Wrymouth" Prince of Poland & his first wife Zbislava Sviatopolkovna of Kiev (1105-30 May 1159). The Chronicon Polono-Silesiacum names (in order) the five sons of Boles?aw III "Vladislaum, Boleslaum, Mesiconem, Kazimirum, Henricum", specifying that W?adys?aw succeeded in Silesia[18]. The Annales Capituli Cracoviensis record the birth in 1105 of "Vladizlaus secundus"[19]. The Chronica principum Polonie records that the mother of "Boleslaus suo primogenito Wladislao filio" was "ex quadam Ruthena nobili"[20]. He succeeded in 1138 as W?ADYS?AW II "Wygnaniec/the Exile" Prince of Krakow and Silesia. He was expelled by his brother Boles?aw IV: the Annales Capituli Cracoviensis record that in 1146 "Wladizlaus fugit et Cracovia devastatur"[21]. In 1146, Konrad III King of Germany (whose half-sister was W?adys?aw's wife) unsuccessfully tried to reinstate him[22]. After Boles?aw IV refused tribute to Friedrich I "Barbarossa" King of Germany, the latter invaded Poland in Aug 1157, forced Boles?aw and his other brothers to submit, and compelled them to accept arbitration with their brother W?adys?aw[23]. [The Annales Cracovienses Compilati record the death in 1148 "Wladyzlaus"[24]. This person has not been identified. The entry could indicate the exiled Duke W?adys?aw II, the date being mistaken, but his own death is recorded in the same source in 1159.] The Annales Capituli Cracoviensis record the death in 1159 of "Wladizlaus dux Polonie"[25] and the Annales Cracovienses Compilati the death in 1159 of "Wladyslaus in exilio"[26]. The Epytaphia ducum Slezie record the death "4 Non Iun" of "dux Wladizlaus Cracovie, Gnezdne, Syrazye, Kalisie et Slezie, pater fundatoris Bolezlai"[27].
     "m ([1120/25]) AGNES of Austria, daughter of LEOPOLD III "der Heilige" Markgraf of Austria [Babenberg] & his second wife Agnes of Germany [Staufen] ([1108/1113]-Altenburg/Thür 24/25 Jan [1160/63], bur Kloster Pforte an der Saale). The information concerning the wife of Duke W?adys?aw II is contradictory. The Continuatio Claustroneoburgensis names "Agnes" as second daughter of "Liupoldus marchio Austrie" and "Agnetem imperatoris Heinrici IV filiam", specifying that she married "Poleslaus dux de Polan"[28], although there appears to be no "Boles?aw" at the time to whom this could refer. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Agnetam" as "Leopoldis marchio et Henricus…sororem germanam" and wife of "dux Vergescelaus de Polonia"[29]. Her origin is further confirmed by a charter dated Jan 1150 in which Cardinal-deacon Guido informs Konrad III King of Germany of the steps he took against "ducis Poloniæ et coniugis eius sororis vestræ…ducis W"[30]. On the other hand, according to the Chronicon Polono-Silesiacum, the wife of Duke W?adys?aw was Christina, daughter of Emperor Heinrich IV (stating in one passage that "Heinricum quintum" was "fratrem uxoris [=Wladislai]" and in a later passage that she was "filia imperatoris Henrici quarti…Cristine domine")[31]. The Chronica principum Polonie also states that "Boleslaus suo primogenito Wladislao filio" married "filiam imperatoris Cristinam"[32]. The Epytaphia ducum Slezie provides a third possibility, naming her "Adilheidis uxor eius filia imperatoris Heinrici IV" (the entry follows that recording the death of Duke W?adys?aw, to whom "eius" presumably refers) when recording her death "VIII Kal Sep"[33]. The Chronicon Polono-Silesiacum specifies that "filia imperatoris Henrici quarti…Cristine domine", mother of "Boleslam, Mesicone, Conrado Loripade", was "in Porta sepulta"[34]. It is chronologically implausible for the wife of Duke W?adys?aw to have been the daughter of Emperor Heinrich IV, the births of whose known children are recorded between 1070 and 1086, assuming that the estimated birth dates of the couple's children are in the range [1127] to [1146] as shown below. The explanation is presumably confusion with the mother-in-law of Duke W?adys?aw who was one of the emperor's daughters. Concerning her first name, the records of Kloster Neuburg make no known errors in recording the names of the numerous children of Leopold III Markgraf of Austria, although it is true that (as noted above) the name "Boleslas" is in error for "Wladislas". Onomastics help little in finding a solution, as both "Agnes" and "Adelheid" were names given to her descendants. The further complicating factor is the curious story concerning her grandson Jaroslav and his reported hatred of his stepmother "Adelheid" (see below), while elsewhere the second wife of Jaroslaw's father Boles?aw is named Christina. The issue appears to be resolved by two necrology entries: the necrology of Kloster Neuburg records the death "VIII Kal Feb" of "Agnes ducissa Polonie filia marchionis"[35], and the necrology of Lilienfeld records the death "VI Kal Oct" of "Agnes ux Wlaslai ducis Zlezorum filia fundatoris S Crucis"[36]."

     "Kazimierz was born on 25 July 1016, the son of Mieszko II Lambert, king of Poland, and Richeza of Lorraine. Relatively little is known of his early life, but he must have spent his childhood at the royal court of Poland in Gniezno. Mieszko II was crowned the king of Poland in 1025 after he father's death. Many landlords, however, feared the single rule of the monarch. This situation led to conflicts in the country, in which Mieszko's brothers turned against him and Emperor Konrad II's forces attacked the country, seizing Lusatia. Years of chaos and conflict followed, during which Mieszko died in 1034 in suspicious circumstances, after a forced abdication and a brief restoration.
     "After the death of her husband, Richeza probably tried to seize the power in the country and secure the crown for her son. However, she failed and Kazimierz had to flee to the kingdom of Hungary while the central parts of Poland were controlled by his uncle Bezprym. The region of Greater Poland revolted against the nobles and clergy and a mass pagan revival ensued there. Also the land of Masovia seceded and a local landlord named Mieclaw formed a state of his own there. A similar situation arose in Pomerania, where the power was held by a local dynasty loosely related to the Piasts. Bretislaw I 'the Warrior', duke of Bohemia and Moravia, observing the period of turmoil in Poland, took advantage of his neighbours' weakness and invaded the country. After a short struggle he conquered Silesia and Lesser Poland, and severely pillaged Greater Poland, burning Gniezno to the ground and looting the relics of Saint Adalbert.
     "The following year the new Holy Roman Emperor, Heinrich III, allied himself with the exiled Polish ruler against the Bohemians. Kazimierz was given a troop of 1000 heavy footmen and a significant amount of gold to restore his power in the country. Kazimierz also signed an alliance with Jaroslav I Vladimirovitch 'the Wise', grand duke of Kiev. The alliance was sealed by Kazimierz's marriage to Jaroslav's half-sister Dobronega (Maria). He and Maria had five children, of whom two sons, Boleslaw and Wladyslaw I Herman, and a daughter Swatawa, would have progeny.
     "With Jaroslav's support Kazimierz returned to Poland and managed to retake most of his domain. In 1041 the defeated Bretislaw signed a treaty at Regensburg in which he renounced his claims to all Polish lands except Silesia, which was to be incorporated into the Crown of Bohemia. It was Kazimierz's success in strengthening royal power and ending internal strife that earned him the epithet of 'the Restorer'.
     "The treaty gained Kazimierz a period of peace at the southern border and the capital of Poland was moved to Kraków, the only major Polish city relatively untouched by the wars. It is probable that Emperor Heinrich was happy with the balance of power restored in the region, and that he forced Kazimierz not to crown himself king of Poland. In 1046 the emperor held royal and imperial courts at Merseburg and Meissen, at which he formally ended the conflict between the duke of Pomerania, Bretislaw of Bohemia and Kazimierz.
     "In 1047 Kazimierz, aided by his brother-in-law Jaroslav I Vladimirovitch of Kiev, started a war against Masovia and seized the lands. It is probable that he also defeated Mieclaw's allies from Pomerania and attached Gdansk to Poland. This secured his power in central Poland. Three years later, against the will of the emperor, Kazimierz seized Czech-controlled Silesia, thus securing most of his father's domain. In 1054 in Quedlinburg the emperor ruled that Silesia was to remain in Poland in exchange for a yearly tribute of 117 kg of silver and 7 kg of gold.
     "At that time Kazimierz focused on internal matters. In conflict with the emperor over Silesia, he supported the papacy in the Investiture Controversy and gained the support of the Church. To strengthen his rule he recreated the bishopric of Kraków and Wroclaw and erected the new Cathedral Basilica of St. Stanislaus and St. Wenceslaus in Kraków. During Kazimierz's rule heraldry was introduced to Poland, and unlike his predecessors, he promoted landed gentry over his own mounted warriors (the 'druzyna') as his base of power. One of his reforms was the introduction to Poland of a key element of feudalism: the granting of fiefdoms to his retinue of warriors, thus gradually transforming them into medieval knights.
     "Kazimierz died on 19 March 1058. He was succeeded by his elder son Boleslaw, who was in turn followed by his brother Wladyslaw I Herman."⁵

     "Casimir I the Restorer (Polish: Kazimierz Karol I Odnowiciel; b. Kraków, 25 July 1016 – d. Pozna?, 28 November 1058), was Duke of Poland of the Piast dynasty and the de jure monarch of the entire country from 1034 until his death.
     "He was the only son of Mieszko II Lambert by his wife Richeza, daughter of Count Palatine Ezzo of Lotharingia (of the Ezzonids) and granddaughter of Emperor Otto II.
     "Casimir is known as the Restorer because he managed to reunite all parts of the Polish Kingdom after a period of turmoil. He reinstated Masovia, Silesia and Pomerania into his realm. However, he failed to crown himself King of Poland, mainly because of internal and external threats to his rule.
Life
Early years
     "Relatively little is known of Casimir's early life. He must have spent his childhood at the royal court of Poland in Gniezno. In order to acquire a proper education, he was sent to one of the Polish monasteries in 1026. According to some older sources he initially wanted to have a career in the Church (it is probable that he held the post of oblate) and even asked for a dispensation to become a monk. This hypothesis, however, is not supported by modern historians. Regardless, he left church work for good in 1031.
Rule of his father, Mieszko II
     "Casimir's father, Mieszko II, was crowned King of Poland in 1025 after the death of his father Boles?aw I the Brave. However, the powerful magnates of the country feared a strong central government like the one that existed under Boles?aw I's rule. This led to considerable friction between the King and the nobility. Taking advantage of the King's precarious situation, Mieszko II's older half-brother Bezprym and younger brother Otto turned against him and allied themselves with the Holy Roman Emperor Conrad II, whose forces attacked Poland and regained Lusatia. Years of chaos and conflict followed, during which Mieszko II was forced to cede the throne to Bezprym in 1031, fled to Bohemia, was imprisoned by Duke Old?ich and castrated, returned to rule a portion of the kingdom, eventually regained the kingdom, and then died in May 1034 under suspicious circumstances.
     "Sometime during the reign of Bezprym, Casimir and his sisters were taken by their mother to Germany (her native land) for refuge. It has been reported that Queen Richeza brought the Polish royal crown and regalia to Emperor Conrad II at Bezprym's request to indicate his acceptance of the primacy of his western neighbor,[1] although the Queen could have taken them for safekeeping, or they could have been brought to the Emperor by another means. At the time of his father's death in 1034, Casimir was about 18 years old and in Germany at the court of his uncle Hermann II, Archbishop of Köln.
Interregnum
     "The central district of Greater Poland (Wielkopolska) revolted against the nobles and Catholic clergy in a mass rebellion. A pagan revival in the area lasted for several years. The district of Masovia seceded and a local lord, Miec?aw, formed a state of his own. A similar situation occurred in Pomerania.
     "In 1037 both the young prince and his mother returned to Poland and attempted to seize the throne. This precipitated a rebellion by local barons, which coupled with the so-called "Pagan Reaction" of the commoners, forced Casimir and Richeza to flee to Saxony. However, soon Casimir returned to Poland and in 1038, once again, tried to regain power with the aide of his influential mother. This also failed and he had to flee again, this time to the Kingdom of Hungary where he was imprisoned by Stephen I. The Dowager Queen remained in Germany as a nun until her death, in 1063.
     "Taking advantage of the chaos and his neighbour's weakness, Duke Bretislaus I of Bohemia invaded and ravaged the country in 1039. Lesser and Greater Poland were severely pillaged, Pozna? was captured, and Bretislaus sacked Gniezno, taking the relics of Saint Adalbert, Radim Gaudentius, and the five hermit brothers[2] with him. On the way back he conquered part of Silesia, including Wroc?aw, destroyed religious buildings which were built by Mieszko I during the feast of the conversion of Poland, and plundered Mieszko I's tomb.
Restoration
     "After initially escaping to Hungary, Casimir went to Germany, where in 1039 his relative the Emperor Henry III (who feared the increased power of the Bohemian ruler) gave him military and financial support. Casimir received a force of 1,000 heavy footmen and a significant amount of gold to restore his power in Poland. Casimir also signed an alliance with Yaroslav I the Wise, the Prince of Kievan Rus', who was linked with him through Casimir's marriage with Yaroslav's sister, Maria Dobroniega. With this support, Casimir returned to Poland and managed to retake most of his domain. In 1041, Bretislaus, defeated in his second attempted invasion by Emperor Henry III, signed a treaty at Regensburg (1042) in which he renounced his claims to all Polish lands except for Silesia, which was to be incorporated into the Bohemian Kingdom.[3] It was Casimir's success in strengthening royal power and ending internal strife that earned him the epithet of "the Restorer".
     "The treaty gained Casimir a period of peace on the southern border and the capital of Poland was moved to Kraków, the only major Polish city relatively untouched by the wars. It is probable that the Holy Roman Emperor was pleased with the balance of power that had been restored to the region and forced Casimir not to crown himself the King of Poland. In 1046 Emperor Henry III held royal and imperial courts at Merseburg and Meissen, at which he ended the strife among the Duke of Pomerania (Dux Bomeraniorum), Duke Bretislaus of Bohemia, and Casimir I.
     "In 1047 Casimir, aided by his Kievan brother-in-law, started a war against Masovia and seized the land. It is probable that he also defeated Miec?aw's allies from Pomerania and attached Gda?sk to Poland. This secured his power in central Poland. Three years later, against the will of the Emperor, Casimir seized Bohemian-controlled Silesia, thus securing most of his father's domain. In 1054 in Quedlinburg, the Emperor ruled that Silesia was to remain in Poland in exchange for a yearly tribute of 117 kg. of silver and 7 kg. of gold.
     "At that time Casimir focused on internal matters. To strengthen his rule he re-created the bishopric in Kraków and Wroc?aw and erected the new Wawel Cathedral. During Casimir's rule heraldry was introduced into Poland and, unlike his predecessors, he promoted landed gentry over the dru?yna as his base of power. One of his reforms was the introduction, to Poland, of a key element of feudalism: the granting of fiefdoms to his retinue of warriors, thus gradually transforming them into medieval knights.
Marriage and issue
     "Casimir married Maria Dobroniega (ca. 1012–1087), daughter of Grand Duke Vladimir I of Kiev.[4] There is no consensus among historians as to when it took place. W?adymir D. Koroliuk said that it was in 1039, Aleksej A. Szachmatow and Iwan Linniczenko agreed on 1041, while Dymitr S. Lichaczew postulated that it occurred during 1043.[5]
     "Casimir and Maria had five children:
1. Boles?aw II the Bold (ca. 1043 – 2/3 April 1081/82).
2. W?adys?aw I Herman (ca. 1044 – 4 June 1102)
3. Mieszko (16 April 1045 – 28 January 1065).
4. Otto (ca. 1046–1048).
5. ?wi?tos?awa (ca. 1048 – 1 September 1126), married ca. 1062 to Duke (from 1085, King) Vratislaus II of Bohemia.[6]

     "It is uncertain which of her father's concubines was her mother. Dobronega was born about 1013/1014, one of the youngest children of St. Vladimir I 'the Great', grand duke of Kiev and Novgorod. It is uncertain which of her father's concubines was her mother.
     "About 1041/1042 Dobronega married Kazimierz I Karol, king of Poland, son of Mieszko II Lambert, then duke of Poland, and Richeza de Lorraine. This marriage helped Kazimierz to gain support in his claim to the Polish throne. He had attempted to seize the throne twice before, both times unsuccessfully. With the support of Dobronega's brother Jaroslav I Vladimirovitch, grand duke of Kiev, Kazimierz was able to make a successful claim.
     "The couple had five children, of whom Boleslaw II, Wladyslaw I Herman and Swatawa/Swatislawa would have progeny.
     "Maria's husband died on 28 November 1058. Her sixteen year old son Boleslaw II became king of Poland. He is considered one of the most capable of the Piast rulers; however he was deposed and expelled from the country in 1079 and died two years later in 1081.
     "Dobronega survived her son by six years and died in 1087."⁶

; Per Med Lands: "DOBRONEGA MARIA Vladimirovna (before 1012-1087). The Primary Chronicle records the marriage of "Yaroslav's sister" to Kazimierz of Poland in 1043 but does not name her[145]. The Annales Polanorum state that "Kazimirum duxit ex Russia Mariam" in 1025[146], although the date is clearly inaccurate. The Chronicæ Polanorum refers to the wife of King Kazimierz as "de Rusia nobilem"[147]. The Chronica principum Polonie records that "Kazimirus" married "Dobrognewam"[148]. The Annales Capituli Cracoviensis record the death in 1087 of "Dobronega uxor Kazimir"[149]. m (1043) KAZIMIERZ I KAROL "Odnowiciel/the Renewer" Prince of Poland, son of MIESZKO II Lambert King of Poland & his wife Richeza [Ezzonen] (25 Jul 1016-19 Mar 1058)."

     "Maria Dobroniega of Kiev (b. aft. 1012[1] – d. 13 December 1087), was a Kievian Rus princess of the Rurikid dynasty and by marriage Duchess of Poland.
Life
Family
     "She was one of the younger children of Vladimir I, Grand Prince of Kiev. The identity of her mother is disputed among historians and web sources.
     "Grand Prince Vladimir I had married seven times and had fathered many children, legitimate and illegitimate. Anna Porphyrogeneta, his sixth wife, is known to have predeceased Vladimir by four years. Chronicle Thietmar of Merseburg, writing from contemporary accounts, mentions that Boleslaw I of Poland captured Vladimir I's widow during his raid on Kiev in 1018. The historians long had no clue as to identity of this wife. The emigre historian Nicholas Baumgarten, however, pointed to the controversial record of the "Genealogia Welforum" and the "Historia Welforum Weingartensis" that one daughter of Count Kuno von Oenningen (future Duke Konrad I of Swabia) by "filia Ottonis Magni imperatoris" (Otto the Great's daughter; possibly Rechlinda Otona [Regelindis], claimed by some as illegitimate daughter and by others legitimate, born from his first marriage with Edith of England) married "rex Rugorum" (King of Rus). He interpreted this evidence as pertaining to Vladimir I's last wife. This woman is a possible identity for Maria's mother.
Marriage
     "Maria married around 1040 to Casimir I the Restorer, Duke of Poland. This marriage helped Casimir to gain support in his reclaim over the Polish throne. Casimir had attempted to seize the throne twice before, both times he failed. With the support of Maria's brother, Yaroslav I the Wise, Casimir was able to make a successful claim.
     "The couple had five children:[2]
1. Boles?aw II the Bold (b. c. 1043 – d. 2/3 April 1081/82).
2. W?adys?aw I Herman (b. c. 1044 – d. 4 June 1102)
3. Mieszko (b. 16 April 1045 – d. 28 January 1065).
4. Otto (b. c. 1046 – d. 1048).
5. ?wi?tos?awa (b. c. 1048 – d. 1 September 1126), married c. 1062 to Duke (and since 1085 King) Vratislaus II of Bohemia.
     "Maria's husband died on 28 November 1058. Her sixteen-year-old son, Boles?aw, became King of Poland. Boles?aw II is considered one of the most capable of the Piast rulers. However, he was deposed & expelled from the country in 1079. Boles?aw II died two years later, in 1081 or 1082.
     "Maria survived her oldest son by five or six years, dying in 1087.
