He was a Count, and his family had been called counts, in and around th e H a i n a ut area for some generations. He may be the first who managed to r e b u i l d a territory around Hainaut which was big and contiguous enough s u c h t h a t he was called Count of Hainaut in his own lifetime.
On the other hand, Belgian historian Michel de Waha doubts that Reginar I V e v e r r e ally held Mons and if he did whether this was only after his m ar r i a g e.
Married Hedwige (Avoie), daughter of Hugh Capet, King of France.[Anderson, James, "[[Space:A_Genealogical_History_o f _ t h e _House_of_Yvery|A Genealogical History of the House of Yvery; In i t s D i f f erent Branches of Yvery, Luvel, Perceval, and Gournay]]", London : p r i v a te, 1742, Vol. II, Google Books, [https://books.google.com/books ?i d = a C oAAAAAQAAJ&pg=PA64#v=onepage&q&f=true p. 64]; N.B. described as ' t h e F i f th of that Name']
