His father appointed him as Governor of the County of Namur at Gent 5 Nov 1297, then ceded his rights to the county 2 Oct 1298, whereby he became JEAN I Comte de Namur.

She was accused by the noblewoman Birgitta Birgersdatter (St Birgitta) of having poisoned the latter's son, her innocence of the crime only being proved at the end of the 18th century[201].

Galliot records that news of the death of Philippe Comte de Namur arrived at Namur 18 Oct 1337[206]: it is reasonable to suppose therefore that he died some time in September.

6. MARIE de Namur (1322-before 29 Oct 1357). Her parentage and first marriage are confirmed by Jean de Hocsem’s Chronique which records “Philippus comes Namurcensis...sorore, cujus maritus comes Vienne” when reporting their supposed deaths “in partibus ultramarinis”[207]. “Thibaut de Bar sire de Pierrepont” acknowledged receipt of dowry from “la comtesse de Namur sa belle-mère” due “à cause de son mariage avec Marie de Namur comtesse de Vianden” by charter dated 7 Feb 1340[208].

If the her second husband’s death is correctly shown below, these details of her supposed third and fourth marriages must be inaccurate. She married secondly ([1394]) Bertrand de la Boverie (-5 Apr 1425), who became avoué of Liège 1413/25. Robert had two illegitimate children by unknown mistresses:

Johann I. (Namur) aus Wikipedia, der freien Enzyklopädie Wechseln zu: Navigation, Suche

Johann I. von Dampierre (* 1267; † 31. Januar 1330) war Graf von Namur von 1305 bis 1330. Er war der Sohn von Guido von Dampierre, Graf von Flandern und Markgraf von Namur, und Isabella von Luxemburg.

Im März 1297 traten seine Eltern ihm die Regierung der Grafschaft Namur ab, wobei Guido von Dampierre allerdings den Titel eines Markgrafen von Namur bis zu seinem Tod behielt, weshalb Johann bis dahin sich mit dem eines Grafen von Namur begnügte. Von 1296 bis 1298 wurde er wie sein Vater in Paris gefangen gehalten. Im Jahr 1300 schloss er mit mehreren Städten aus der Umgebung von Lüttich einen Vertrag, durch die diese sich seinem Schutz unterstellten. Als sein Vater erneut in Paris festgesetzt wurde, zog er zusammen mit seinem Bruder Guido gegen Frankreich, das 1302 in der Sporenschlacht geschlagen wurde, jedoch 1304 in der Schlacht von Mons-en-Pévèle siegte. Der Friedensvertrag kam erst 1307 zustande.

1307 leistete er dem Grafen Wilhelm von Hennegau den Lehnseid für die Grafschaft Namur und die Herrschaft Poilvache. 1308 erhob Karl von Valois Anspruch auf die Markgrafschaft als Ehemann von Catherine de Courtenay, der Enkelin von Balduin II. von Courtenay, dem früheren Markgrafen von Namur, doch König Philipp IV. von Frankreich entschied die Frage zugunsten Johanns.

Als Johann den Kaiser Heinrich VII. auf seinem Italienfeldzug begleitete, musste seine zweite Ehefrau Marie von Artois sich mit einem Aufstand auseinandersetzen, der wegen zu hoher Steuern ausgebrochen war, und der erst 1313 mit Hilfe von Graf Arnold V. von Looz unterdrückt werden konnte. 1314 gab ihm der Kaiser die Herrschaft über Cambrai, das er auch in Besitz nahm, wobei er die Beamten des Bischofs absetzte, aber auch bis 1317 exkommuniziert wurde. Von 1318 bis 1322 schließlich führte er Krieg gegen den Bischof von Lüttich. Familie [Bearbeiten]

Johann heiratete 1308 in erster Ehe Margarete von Clermont (*1289, † 1309), Tochter von Robert von Frankreich, Graf von Clermont-en-Beauvaisis, und Beatrix von Burgund, Dame de Bourbon; Margarete starb bereits im Jahr darauf, die Ehe blieb kinderlos.
