Nicolas III,
lord of Lalaing, knight,: bailli of Hainaut from 1352 to 1354, husband of isabeau of Montigny (in Ostrevant) died about 1369.

In March 1346 (v. st.), he acknowledged having sold, with the consent of "madame de Lalaing, our mother, the dame de Lalaing, our wife, our brother and our sisters", "to high man and noble no dear and good friend monssr Robert de Coucy, emoune and cantor: de l'église de Gambray et signeur du Chasteller sur Oyse", lands located "Kieurechin dales Kieuraing", as well as the "justice high and signourie on thirty liveries of land which we have sold to the lady of Roysin" obliging for this purpose all its goods, "so much or royalme of France like elsewhere" (35).

On April 10, 1350, "Nichis de Lalein, chlr," was in Arras, in the service of the king, with "ij chlre and xiiij escuiers," and "under the government of noble man monsr the connestable of France" (36). This lord continued to serve France well, since in January 1367 (old style), the king qualifies him: "our beloved and feudal knight Nichole, lord of the city of Lallaing," when he agrees that the inhabitants of this village enjoy the right to graze in the marsh of Flines, known as the Six Cities.

"When he arrived in the snow and on the ground he had made oath to his subjects, as the "charter" of Lalaing obliged all the lords to do it, "dedens forty days that he aront made homage to their lord". The original of this communal charter having been destroyed when the abbey of Marchiennes was burned on August 12, 1340 by the count of Hainaut, ephemeral ally of the English, at the beginning of the hundred years war, - beginning marked by a fight as cruel as short, where Nicolas III was obliged, like the other knights of Hainaut, to fight against France in the wake of his master, - one took care to make up for it with a "coppie of the aforementioned charter" of the year 1300, "which was verified to us of mouth by our very chiere damé and mother, lady of Lalaing, and of our very chier cousin monseigneur Taillefer de Rosne, withq pluiseurs aultres aus lesquels nous avons adjousté foy. and credence;" thus Nicolas III, in his charter of March 20, 1366 (old style), sealed by him as well as by "our dear son Colart de Lalaing, knight, no aisné heir," by "no chier frere Simon de Lallaing, signeur de Hordaing et seneschal d'Ostrevant," and by no chier et amé cousin monseigneur Jehan de Monaigne, knight signeur de Potelles."

The obit of "messire Nicole de Lalaing, who lies in the middle of the chapel of Saint Jehan in the church of Lalaing," was celebrated on Wednesday of the Four Times of Advent in December (37).
Nicolas III and Isabeau de Montigny, who died before 1369, had at least three sons and one daughter:

1° Nicolas IV, lord of Lalaing and Bugnicourt, knight, died childless around 1390. In 1383, he served France, "in these present wars of the king nre seigneur, in the ride he makes on the or pais de Flandres: contre les Anglais, having in his company three knights and twenty six squires (38).
2° Simon de Lalaing, squire, served in 1383, having in his company a knight and twenty-five squires (39). It probably no longer existed in 1387.
3. Otto, who follows.
4° Jeanne de Lalaing, canoness of Mons in 1381, married to Pierre DE HAVESQUERQUE dit DE WISQUETE, knight, lord of "Raisse" (Rache-Jez-Douai) and Ere (near Tournai), lord of Orchies and Bailleul in Flanders, chamberlain to the king and duke of Orleans, killed at Agincourt in 1415, childless; died on April 28, 1426, she lies in the Cordeliers of Tournai. Pontus Heuterus, in his Genealogiae (Antwerp, Plantin, 1583, in-fO, page 46), work forming the complement of Rerum Burgundicarum libri sex (id., 1584), quotes her as sister of Otte, daughter of Nicolas and wife of the Sire de Raisse, but without giving his first name: Filia nupta Bassei domino. He agrees in this with Jacques Le Boucq, author of the genealogical table of Lalaing, composed in Valenciennes in 1566.

It is wrong that several genealogists have given Simon III as father to the lady of Raisse.

In 1407, 1415 and later still, the sire de Lalaing had the enjoyment of the seigniory of Waziers-lez-Douai, “the life of the lady of Raise [his sister] lasting, so much only” (40). Nicholas III also seems to have had a bastard: Jacques, bastard of Lalaing, alive in 1363 and died, it seems, around 1370, his property having passed to his brother the Sire of Lalaing. Here, on this subject, are some indications drawn from the accounts of the castellany of Bouchain resting in the departmental archives. 1363, November 30.

NICOLAS [III] de Lalaing, son of SIMON [III] de Lalaing & his wife Mathilde d’Aspremont (-[20 Mar 1367/4 Jun 1369]). “Collart Sire de Lallaing...”, for himself and on behalf of “ses trois sœurs Florence, Marie et Jeanne”, acknowledged receipt of payments due from “Isabiaus de Kievraing Dame de Spremont” connected with the marriage of “Simon Sgr de Lallaing son pere et de sa mere” by charter dated end-Dec 1338[469]. A charter dated 21 Dec 1346 records that, after “Medame Mehaus dame de Lalaing” (co-heiress of Quiévrain) entered religion, she was represented by “Nicollon signeur de Lalaing sen aisnet fil chevalier” who sold property to “Robiert de Couchi canonne et chantre de l’église de Cambray et signeur du Chasteller sur Oyse” and to “medame Margherite de Wingles dame de Roisin” with the consent of “medame Mehaut de Lalaing sa mere...medame Ysabiel dame de Lalaing...espeuse audit monsr. Nicollon, de monsr. Symon de Lalaing, monsigneur Jehan dit Sanson de Lalaing chlrs, freres audit monsr de Lalaing, Gillion de Reumont et demisielle Florence sa femme, demisielle Margherite de Lalaing canoinnesse de Malboege, demisielle Marie de Lalaing canoinesse de Niuielle, et demisielle Gille de Lalaing, sereurs audit signeur de Lalaing”[470]. A charter dated to [1353] records an agreement between Anchin abbey and “Mgr de Lallaing et ses complices” compensating for damage “à Pesquencourt”[471]. Jean II King of France confirmed receiving the fine paid by “Nicolas Sgr de Lallaing, Jean Sgr de Harchies, Gilles dit Hoel de Keuvraing, Sgr de Fontenoy, chevaliers et Guillaume du Chasteler ecuyer” to Anchin for damage “à Pesquencourt” by charter dated 13 Dec 1353[472]. Nicolas [III] Seigneur de Lalaing certified a charter dated 1300 “verifiyée de bouche par nostre...mere dame de Lalaing et de nos...cousin monseigneur Taillefer de Rosen” by charter dated 20 Mar 1366 (O.S.), sealed by himself and by “notre...fil Colart de Lalaing chevalier signour de Hordaing et seneschal d’Ostrevant...no...cousin monseigneur Jehan de Mortaigne chevalier signeur de Potelles”[473]. His sons’ 4 Jun 1369 charter quoted below suggests that Nicolas [III] was deceased at the time, although the document does not name him as “feu” in contrast to his wife.
m ISABELLE de Montignies Dame de Montignies-Saint-Christophe, daughter of EUSTACHE Seigneur de Montignies-Saint-Christophe & his wife Marie de Haveskercke (-before 4 Jun 1369). Brassart records her parentage as noted here, referring to the quartiers of Jacques de Lalaing (her great-grandson, died 3 Jul 1453, see below) (no source reference: in another book, Brassart records his epitaph at Lalaing Sainte-Aldegonde but does not list the arms displayed on the tomb[474]), although he refers to her paternal grandfather as “seigneur de Montigny en Ostrevant”[475]. In an earlier book, Brassart recorded the wife of Nicolas [III] de Lalaing as “Marie, dame héritière de Montigny-en-Ostrevent, fille de Guillaume, seigneur dudit lieu [who was her paternal grandfather], et de Marie de Haveskercke”[476]. Goethals, presumably following Brassart’s earlier indication, names “Marie dame de Montigny en Ostrevant, fille de Guillaume, seigneur de Montigny, et de Marie de Haveskercke” as wife of Nicolas [III] (no sources cited)[477]. However, Bernier indicates that Nicolas’s wife was heiress of Montignies-Saint-Christophe[478]. This indication is supported by Van Bastelaer, who names her son Oste [II] de Lalaing “Othon II de Lalaing...seigneur de Montignies-St-Christophe” (no source cited for this reference), although he incorrectly names her “Marie” and her father “Guillaume de Montigny”[479]. In addition, her descendant Antoine de Lalaing ([1480]-1540, see below) is named “Seigneur de Montignies-Saint-Christophe”[480]. The primary source which confirms Isabelle’s parentage and family origin has not been identified, although the indications highlighted above suggest that she was a member of the Montignies-Saint-Christophe family not Montigny-en-Ostrevant. A charter dated 21 Dec 1346 records that “Nicollon signeur de Lalaing sen aisnet fil chevalier” sold property with the consent of “...medame Ysabiel dame de Lalaing...espeuse audit monsr. Nicollon...”[481]. “Nicolas sires de Lalaing chevaliers Simons de Lalaing et Ostes de Lalaing si frère escuyer” confirmed the donation made to Flines by “messires de Lalaing leurs pères”, for the souls “dudit monsr. Lalaing le père, de feue madame Ysabiel de Montegui se espeuse et mère des dessus nommés”, by charter dated 4 Jun 1369[482].
Nicolas [III] & his wife had children:

1. NICOLAS [IV] de Lalaing (-after 15 Mar 1387). Nicolas [III] Seigneur de Lalaing certified a charter dated 1300 “verifiyée de bouche par nostre...mere dame de Lalaing et de nos...cousin monseigneur Taillefer de Rosen” by charter dated 20 Mar 1366 (O.S.), sealed by himself and by “notre...fil Colart de Lalaing chevalier signour de Hordaing et seneschal d’Ostrevant...no...cousin monseigneur Jehan de Mortaigne chevalier signeur de Potelles”[483]. “Nicolas sires de Lalaing chevaliers Simons de Lalaing et Ostes de Lalaing si frère escuyer” confirmed the donation made to Flines by “messires de Lalaing leurs pères”, for the souls “dudit monsr. Lalaing le père, de feue madame Ysabiel de Montegui se espeuse et mère des dessus nommés”, by charter dated 4 Jun 1369[484]. “Nicolas sire de Lalaing, de Bugnicourt chevalier, Simon de Lalaing son frère écuyer, et Baudouin de la Motte à ce jour châtelain d’Ath” sold property by charter dated 17 Dec 1371[485]. “Nicolas sire de Lalaing et de Bugnicourt chevalier et Hostes de Lalaing son frère écuyer” sold property to “Jean Vrediel” by charter dated 15 Mar 1387[486].

2. SIMON de Lalaing (-before 15 Mar 1387). “Nicolas sires de Lalaing chevaliers Simons de Lalaing et Ostes de Lalaing si frère escuyer” confirmed the donation made to Flines by “messires de Lalaing leurs pères”, for the souls “dudit monsr. Lalaing le père, de feue madame Ysabiel de Montegui se espeuse et mère des dessus nommés”, by charter dated 4 Jun 1369[487]. “Nicolas sire de Lalaing, de Bugnicourt chevalier, Simon de Lalaing son frère écuyer, et Baudouin de la Motte à ce jour châtelain d’Ath” sold property by charter dated 17 Dec 1371[488]. His absence from the 15 Mar 1387 charter which names his brothers suggests that Simon was deceased at the time.

3. OSTE de Lalaing ([before 1350]-13 Jan 1441, bur Lalaing). “Nicolas sires de Lalaing chevaliers Simons de Lalaing et Ostes de Lalaing si frère escuyer” confirmed the donation made to Flines by “messires de Lalaing leurs pères”, for the souls “dudit monsr. Lalaing le père, de feue madame Ysabiel de Montegui se espeuse et mère des dessus nommés”, by charter dated 4 Jun 1369[489]. His birth date is estimated on the assumption that Oste was a young adult at the time. The epitaph quoted below indicates that he was 103 years old when he died, which is presumably exaggerated. “Nicolas sire de Lalaing et de Bugnicourt chevalier et Hostes de Lalaing son frère écuyer” sold property to “Jean Vrediel” by charter dated 15 Mar 1387[490]. An epitaph at Lalaing records the burial of “Otte de Lalaing chevalier...vesquit le dit Otte...cent et trois ans” who died 13 Jan 1441 and “Yolens de Barbenchon dame de Lalaing son...epeuse” who died 9 Jan 1434[491]. “Charles baron de Lalaing...” ratified obits at the church of Lalaing, including “Monseigneur Hoste signeur de Lalaing...et...Madame Yolent de Barbenchon son espeuse lesquelz gisent en la chappelle de saint Jehan”, by charter dated 15 Dec 1515[492]. m (after Oct 1387) YOLANDE de Barbançon Dame de Hantes, daughter of JEAN [III] Seigneur de Barbançon & his wife Yolande de Lens (-9 Jan 1434, bur Lalaing). ). Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by a memorial in the chapelle du Saint-Sang-Wisnacq, aux Carmes de Valenciennes, which records the arms of her son Guillaume de Lalaing (died 1475) quartered “Lalaing/Montegny/Barbanchon/Rassenghien”[493]. She must have married after Oct 1387 as she is not named in the charter which names her supposed two brothers-in-law. An epitaph at Lalaing records the burial of “Otte de Lalaing chevalier...vesquit le dit Otte...cent et trois ans” who died 13 Jan 1441 and “Yolens de Barbenchon dame de Lalaing son...epeuse” who died 9 Jan 1434[494]. “Charles baron de Lalaing...” ratified obits at the church of Lalaing, including “Monseigneur Hoste signeur de Lalaing...et...Madame Yolent de Barbenchon son espeuse lesquelz gisent en la chappelle de saint Jehan”, by charter dated 15 Dec 1515[495]. Oste & his wife had six children:
a) GUILLAUME de Lalaing (-24 Aug 1475). The testament of “Guillaume seigneur de Lallain, de Bugnicourt, Fressaing, Hordaing, et seneschal d’Ostrevant” dated 4 Sep 1473, donated property for the souls of “nous de Jehenne de Crequi notre...compaigne et de deffunts messires Jacques [...lequel gist en le chappelle de notre Dame de Sainghin scitué en ladite eglise de Lallain], Philippe [...lequel termina vie par trespas en la bataille du Mont le Hevry] et Anthoine de Lallain [...lequel gist en ladite chapelle de notre Dame de Sanghien] nos enfants”, approved by “nostre...filz aisne et heritier apparent maistre Jehan de Lalain”[496].
- see below.
b) SANSON [Sanche?] de Lalaing (-[1460]). “Sansse de Lalaing seigneur de Bricques et de Thilly escuier” was named in accounts of the grand bailliage de Hainaut dated 1436[497]. Seigneur d’Oprebaix[498]. Goethals records that “Sausse de Lalaing” and his wife “Agnes de Robersart” are recorded in a window at Valenciennes église des Carmes, decorated with the shields of “Lalaing, Barbançon, Robersart, Mastaing. Montigny, Rassenghien, ---, Trazegnies”[499]. m CATHERINE [Agn%C3%A8s?] de Robersart, daughter of ---. The Catalogue des Lalaing names “Catherine de Robersart” as the wife of Sanche de Lalaing without providing any other details[500]. Brassart names her “Catherine de Robersart dame d’Ecaillon et de Bruille” (no source cited)[501]. Goethals names her “Agnes d’Ostrevant dite de Robersart” without citing the source on which this information is based[502]. Was she related to John/Jean Robsart/Robersart who was born in Hainaut, campaigned in France with Henry V King of England, was granted “the baronies of S. Saviour le Visconte and Neahou in Normandy”, made “Captain of Caudebec” during the reign of King Henry VI, and was buried at Christ Church, London (epitaph recording the burial of “Dom. Johannes Robsard valens miles in armis” who died 24 Dec 1450)?[503]. Goethals records that “Sausse de Lalaing” and his wife “Agnes de Robersart” are recorded in a window at Valenciennes église des Carmes, decorated with the shields of “Lalaing, Barbançon, Robersart, Mastaing. Montigny, Rassenghien, ---, Trazegnies”[504]. Sanson & his wife had one child:
i) JEANNE [Catherine?] de Lalaing ([after 1445?]-[before 1475 or after 1477]). Père Anselme records her parentage (naming her “Catherine”) and marriage, noting that she was living in 1477, without citing the source which confirms this information[505]. The Catalogue des Lalaing records that “Jeanne de Lalaing demoiselle d’Escaillon et de Bruille”, only daughter and heiress of “Sanche de Lalaing Seigneur d’Oprebaix, chambellan du duc de Bourgogne, prévôt-le-comte à Valenciennes” (“mort vers 1460”) and “Catherine de Robersart” was in 1461 “sous la tutelle du seigneur de Lalaing son oncle” and that her husband was “veuf d’elle en 1475”[506]. No primary source has been identified which reconciles the difference in name and date of death. Her birth date is estimated from her still being a minor in 1461. m (after 1461) PHILIPPE de Bourbon Seigneur de Duisant, son of JEAN de Bourbon Seigneur de Carency & his second wife Jeanne de Vendômois (-after 20 Jul 1492).
c) SIMON de Lalaing (-15 Mar 1477, bur Deinze). “Simon de Lalaing seigneur de Montigny chevalier...Guillaume seigneur de Lalaing aussi chevalier...son frère” made declarations as “curateur aux biens vacants de feu...Jacques de Lalaing” by charter dated 3 Apr 1469[507].
- see below.
d) MARGUERITE de Lalaing (-1444, bur Mons Sainte-Vaudru). Canoness at Mons Sainte-Vaudru. An epitaph at Mons Sainte-Vaudru records the burials of “Melle Marguerite et Melle Jacqueline de Lalaing filles de...Otte de Lalainh et de dame Yolente de Barbençon” who died 1444 and 1446 respectively and were both “chanoinesses de l’église Sainte-Vaudru à Mons”[508].
e) JACQUELINE de Lalaing (-1446, bur Mons Sainte-Vaudru). Canoness at Mons Sainte-Vaudru. An epitaph at Mons Sainte-Vaudru records the burials of “Melle Marguerite et Melle Jacqueline de Lalaing filles de...Otte de Lalainh et de dame Yolente de Barbençon” who died 1444 and 1446 respectively and were both “chanoinesses de l’église Sainte-Vaudru à Mons”[509].
f) YOLANDE de Lalaing (-before 1484). A charter dated 1484 records land at Lalaing which used to be held by “Yolens de Lalaing fille de...Yolens de Barbenchon dame de Lalaing”[510].

4. JEANNE de Lalaing (-1426, bur Tournai Cordeliers). The Catalogue des Lalaing records her parentage and marriage “notre...fil Colart de Lalaing chevalier signour de Hordaing et seneschal d’Ostrevant...no...cousin monseigneur Jehan de Mortaigne chevalier signeur de Potelles”[511]. m PIERRE de Haversquerque dit de Wisquette Seigneur de Rache-lez-Douai et d’Erre, Châtelain d’Orchies et de Bailleul, son of --- (-killed in battle Azincourt 25 Oct 1415).
