A. COMTES de CAMBRAI

2. ISAAC (-[946/30 Apr 948]). Isaac's parentage is not known. The date when he was installed as Comte de Cambrai is not known. ... According to Europäische Stammtafeln[370], he was married to --- de Cambrai, daughter of Raoul de Flandre Comte de Cambrai & his wife ---, but the primary source on which this is based has not been identified. As noted in the Introduction, it is possible that this is a speculative connection designed to explain the transmission of the county between the two individuals. Comte Isaac & his wife had two children:

  • a) ARNOUL [I] de Cambrai (-967). "…Isaac comitis, Arnulfi filii eius…" signed the charter dated 8 Jul 941 under which "Arnulfus…regis…marchysus" restored property to Saint-Pierre de Gand[371]. He may be the same person as "comitis sui…Arnulfi" for whose soul "nostra soror Gerbirgis regina" donated property "Dulciacus…in pago Haginao et Crumbrigga in pago Bragbatinse" to Blandigny, the donation confirmed by "Otto…imperator augustus" by charter dated 22 Jan 966[372].] m BERTA, daughter of [NIBELUNG Graaf van Betuwe & his wife --- de Hainaut] (-[30 Oct] ----). Her origin is indicated by her son Arnoul [II] Comte de Valenciennes being recorded as a relative of Balderic [II] Bishop of Liège[373], who was Berta's brother. The primary source which confirms her parentage more precisely has not yet been identified. The necrology of Liège Saint-Lambert records the death "III Kal Nov" of "Berte comitisse qui dedit nobis Crehem"[374], which which may refer to the wife of Comte Arnoul [I] as the deaths of her son and grandson are also recorded in the same source. Comte Arnoul [I] & his wife had [six] children:
    • i) [ROGER (-before 29 Jun 983).
    • ii) [EUDES (-after 29 Jun 960). ...
    • iii) [HUGUES (-after 29 Jun 960).
    • iv) [ARNOUL [II] (-23 Oct 1012). ...
    • v) [RAINIER (-after 29 Jun 960). ...
    • vi) [ROBERT (-after 29 Jun 960). ...
