JOSSE de Lalaing,
lord of Montigny, knight of the Golden Fleece in 1478, "sovereign" (bailli) of Flanders in 1474, "stathouder" of Holland in 1480, captain of a company of ordinance, having been "moult" wounded and taken prisoner at the rout of Nancy, January 5, 1476 (old style) where he commanded one of the two wings of the people-at-arms; mortally wounded before Utrecht, where he was in chief command of Maximilian of Austria's year; died the next day, August 5, 1483; lying in Deynze near his father.

Utrecht, 1483 by Georg Braun; Frans Hogenberg

On September 24, 1481, he had bought the land of Lalaing from Jean, his first cousin, who reserved it for himself.
From Bonne DE LA VIEFVILLE, his wife, he left :

1° Charles, who follows.

2° Antoine de Lalaing, born around 1480, first known under the name of lord of Monligny, when he wrote the relation of the two journeys that the archduke Philippe le Beau, his master, made in Spain in 1502 and 1505, made a princely fortune thanks to the favor of the regent Marguerite of Austria, of whom he was the knight of honor and the main minister. Knight of the Golden Fleece in 1516, second chamberlain of Charles-Quint, chief of the finances of the emperor in the Netherlands, "sthatouder" of Holland in 1522, captain of a band of ordinance, he had married, about 1511, Isabeau, lady of CULEMBOURG and Hoochstrate, (daughter of Jaspard, lord of Culembourg, etc., and of Jeanne de Bourgogne), older than him by fifteen years, and widow, since 1508, of Jean de Luxembourg, lord of Ville, knight of the Golden Fleece. He was created Count of Hoochstrate, by letters patent dated of Saragossa, in June 1518. He died in Ghent on April 2, 1540 and lies in a magnificent tomb in Hoogstraeten (province of Antwerp).

As a cadet, he bore a lion of gules in the first lozenge, as had his father and his grandfather, lords of Montigny. He left only bastards, among whom we know:

A. Antoine de Lalaing, legitimized by letters dated of Malines, in March 1523, by means of finance, taxed at twenty pounds, at the time of the registration in the chamber of accounts in Lille, on April 2, 1524 after Easter (20th register of the charters, f° vijxxX) Born in Brussels, apostolic prothonotary, matriculated in the university of Louvain in the year 1527, promoted doctor in rights in the year 1535, prior commendatory of Saint-Sauve near Valenciennes around 1525 (by march made with Charles de Lalaing, nephew of his father, quoted hereafter, XIV), provost of Saint-Pierre de Cassel in 1535, of Saint-Sauveur d'Harlebeke in 1536 and of Saint-Liévin de Deventer in Holland, ecclesiastical adviser to the private council in Brussels, he died on August 12, 1541, lying in the middle of the church of Saint-Sauve, under a marble tomb. He broke the shield of Lalaing-Hoochstrate with a golden fillet in bar (genealogical table of the cabinet of titles).

B. Philippe de Lalaing, born around 1500, legitimized by letters dated of Malines, in March 1523, by means of finance, taxed at sixty livres, at the time of the recording in Lille (20th register, f° vijxxX v°), having "been engendered with the body of a damoiselle Ysabeau, b[%C3%A2tarde] of Haubourdin, icelle estant constituted in estat de mariage, which is a condition notably aggravating the said fault of progeniture, how much, on the day of the nativity of the said Philippe, she feusse devenue vesve", as it is explained in the "ampliation" dated of Brussels, March 23, 1534 (old style), and registered in Lille, April 8, 1535 (22nd register, f° cjx v°).

According to the genealogical table of the cabinet of the titles, the count of Hoochstrate would have had his bastards Philippe and Antoine of the same woman" damoiselle Isabeau de Luxembourg, bde de Haubourdin, concubine," which carried: Argent with the lion of Gules, the tail forked passed in saltire, crowned, lampassed and armed of gold, with the net broaching of azure posed in bar.

This bastard of Haubourdin was certainly the daughter of Jean de Luxembourg, bastard of Saint-Pol, knight, lord of Haubourdin, son of the too famous constable of Saint-Pol, and of Amele de Scuere, "at the time they were both married," legitimized, in 1498, being "already an anchor man" (70), died in Lille in 1503. In an enumeration of the fief of the castle of "Amerin" served to the countess of Vendôme, in 1508, by lady Anne Carondelet, widow of the aforementioned lord of Haubourdin, it is spoken about four smallholdings of ground "belonging to Miss Ysabeau de Habourdin, which are located and enclosed with the perimeter of the aforementioned castle, which she holds of the aforementioned castle of Amerin" (71).

Old genealogical manuscripts designate the mother of Philippe de Lalaing as follows: "Isabeau de Luxembourg, bastard daughter of Ferdinand (sic) de Luxembourg, lord of Hautbourdin, and of Jacqueline de Bruaen" (72). Philippe de Lalaing is the author of the branch of Audenarde, which will follow. According to the genealogy of Lalaing of the collection Malotau, the count Antoine would have had, of the "particular damsel" who had been mother of his bastard Antoine, a girl: Hélène de Lalaing, married to Melchior, bastard of Culembourg, of which she had no child, "then made religious and became abbess of..." (73).

In the Correspondence of Maximilian and Margaret of Austria, published by the archivist Le Glay (Paris, Renouard, 1839, in-8°, I, page 302), there is a letter from the emperor to his daughter, dated Veylheym, July 24, 1510 concerning "Anthoine de Lalaing, seigneur de Montygny," who wished to resign the office of bailli de Lens in Artois, "au prouffit de Charles de Bugnicourt (sic), son beau filz. " Although there is no misprint, as we have noted by checking the original document, nevertheless this passage of the imperial dispatch is not more understandable; it is about Charles de Bernemicourt, esquire, lord of La Thieuloye, who was indeed bailiff of Lens; but how could he be the son-in-law of Antoine de Lalaing, who was not married then? and this expression cannot be understood in the sense of son-in-law (of the left hand), whereas: the lord of Montigny was too young to have already, in 1510, a married bastard; finally according to the genealogies, the wife of Charles de Bernemicourt was called Florence Le Fevre dit de Hemstede, heiress of Liefvelt in Holland (74). Obviously the Imperial Chancellery will have made a mistake in writing "his beautiful son", as it had just made one in writing "Bugnicourt".

3° Antoinette de Lalaing, married to Philippe, Lord DE HABART, knight; of which posterity (75).

4° Marguerite de Lalaing, canoness of Mons in 1487, wife of :
….1° of Philippe LE JOSNE de Contay, esquire, lord of Forest, governor of Arras, died in 1501;
....2° around 1505, of Louis DE LONGUEVAL, knight, lord of. Verneul, of whom she was widowed in 1527.

Josse de Lalaing seems to have left a third bastard child:
1° bis. Antoine de Lalaing, squire, bastard of Montigny. "Anthoine de Lalaing was one of the "young men" that Prince Philippe de Clèves, Lord of Ravestain, "had sent from the country of Flanders" to take part in his expedition against the Turks, undertaken by order of the King of France, in the year 1501; but on his return, in the month of November, he perished in a storm, along with several other gentlemen on the ship La Pensée. It is Molinet who reports the fact, in his Chroniques, volume V, pages 189-190 (Buchon edition, Paris, 1828, in-8°).
His obit was celebrated in the church of Lalaing, on November 26. Evidence, n° XXX. The son of Antoinette de Lalaing, Pierre, lord of Habart, became governor of Arras in 1524 and died in 1535 (Ferry de Locres, Chronicon Belgicum, Arras, 1616, in-4, p. 470).
