Notes
In 1022 both Baldwin and his son Eustace, along with the counts of Norm a n d y , V alois, and Flanders, met with Robert II, King of France and form e d a n a l l iance against Odo II, Count of Blois who was challenging the k i n g' s a u thority. But when Emperor Henry II died in July 1024 the allia n c e q u i ckly fell apart as King Robert reconciled with count Odo II. In t h e w a k e o f these changing alliances and for reasons that remain unclear , B a l d w in was killed in battle c. 1027 warring with Enguerrand I, Count o f P o n t h ieu, who then wed Baldwin's widow.
