County Of Horne
Horne (also ''Horn'', ''Hoorn'' or ''Hoorne'') is a small historic county of the Holy Roman Empire in the present day Netherlands and Belgium. It takes its name from the village Horn, west of Roermond. The residence of the counts of Horne was moved from Horn to Weert in the 15th century. After the execution in 1568 of Philip de Montmorency who died without male heirs, the Prince-Bishop of Liège, as suzerain of Horne, was declared the direct lord and new count. The bishops ruled the county in personal union. Horne maintained its own laws and customs as well as its financial autonomy. The county included the communes of Neer, Nunhem, Haelen, Buggenum, Roggel, Heythuysen, Horne, Beegden, Geystingen and Ophoven.Bulletin de la Commission centrale de statistique, Brussels, 1857, vol. 7, p. 136.

Meuse-Inférieure
Meuse-Inférieure ( "Lower Meuse"; ; ) was a department of the French First Republic and French First Empire in present-day Belgium, Netherlands and Germany. It was named after the river Meuse. Its territory corresponded largely with the present-day provinces of Belgian and Dutch Limburg. It was created on 1 October 1795, when the Austrian Netherlands and the Prince-Bishopric of Liège were officially annexed by the French Republic. Before this annexation, its territory was part of the County of Loon, the Austrian Upper Guelders, the Staats-Oppergelre, the County of Horne, the Abbacy of Thorn, Maastricht and part of the Lands of Overmaas. The lands of the original medieval Duchy of Limburg were associated with the Overmaas lands, lying to their south. The two regions had long been governed together and referred to collectively with both names, but the original Duchy lands were not part of this new entity. The Chef-lieu of the department was Maastricht. The department was subdivid ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Counties Of The Holy Roman Empire
This list of states in the Holy Roman Empire includes any territory ruled by an authority that had been granted imperial immediacy, as well as many other feudal entities such as lordships, sous-fiefs and allodial fiefs. The Holy Roman Empire was a complex political entity that existed in central Europe for most of the medieval and early modern periods and was generally ruled by a German-speaking Emperor. The states that composed the Empire, while enjoying a unique form of territorial authority (called '' Landeshoheit'') that granted them many attributes of sovereignty, were never fully sovereign states in the sense that term is understood today. In the 18th century, the Holy Roman Empire consisted of approximately 1,800 such territories, the majority being tiny estates owned by the families of Imperial Knights. This page does not directly contain the list but discusses the format of the various lists and offers some background to understand the complex organisation of the Holy R ...

History Of Limburg (Netherlands)
History (derived ) is the systematic study and the documentation of the human activity. The time period of event before the invention of writing systems is considered prehistory. "History" is an umbrella term comprising past events as well as the memory, discovery, collection, organization, presentation, and interpretation of these events. Historians seek knowledge of the past using historical sources such as written documents, oral accounts, art and material artifacts, and ecological markers.

History is also an academic discipline which uses narrative to describe, examine, question, and analyze past events, and investigate their patterns of cause and effect. Historians often debate which narrative best explains an event, as well as the significance of different causes and effects. Historians also debate the nature of history as an end in itself, as well as its usefulness to give perspective on the problems of the p ...

Philippe De Montmorency
Philip de Montmorency (ca. 1524 – 5 June 1568 in Brussels), also known as Count of Horn, ''Horne'', ''Hoorne'' or ''Hoorn'', was a victim of the Inquisition in the Spanish Netherlands. Biography De Montmorency was born as the eldest of four children of Josef van Montmorency, Count of Nevele and Anna van Egmont the Elder, who had married shortly after August 26, 1523, and lived at Ooidonk Castle.Albertus van Hulzen, ''De Grote Geus: en het falende Driemanschap'', (Typographie Rombus, 1995), 7 note1. His father died early in 1530 in Bologna, Italy, where he was attending the coronation of Charles V as Holy Roman Emperor. His mother remarried Johan II, Count of Horn, one of the wealthiest nobles of the Netherlands, who, in 1540, left the County of Horne to his wife's children on condition they assume his name. A page and later chamberlain at the court of Charles V, de Montmorency married Walburgis van Nieuwenaer in 1546. He became stadtholder of Guelders in 1555, an Admiral of Fla ...

Willem VI Of Horne
Willem VI of Horne was a Dutch Nobleman, the Lord of Horne. Family Willem VI van Horne was the only child of Willem V van Horne and Mechteld van Arkel. When he was born, the inheritance of Willem IV of Horne was still contested between the children of his first marriage and those of his second marriage. The children of the second marriage were Willem V of Horne, his younger brothers Dirk Loef of Horne and Arnold II of Horne, and Elisabeth van Horne. Early Years Willem VI van Horne was born after 28 February 1357, and on or before 3 May 1357. Which dates are calculated from that he reached adulthood (12 years) in 1369. However it's not clear how and whether these dates take account of the new year starting in March in medieval times. The date of Willem VI's father's death is also not that certain. For both reasons, it is quite possible that his father died before Willem VI was born. The confusion about the dates is important, because count William V of Holland granted Alte ...

Dirk Loef Of Horne
Dirk Loef of Horne was a medieval nobleman. Family Dirk Loef van Horne was born in 1338 or 1339. He was the second son of Willem IV of Horne's marriage to Elisabeth of Kleve-Hülchrath, which was his second marriage. This made Dirk Loef's chances to become Lord of Horne very minimal. Dirk Loef van Horne was called 'Dirk Loef', because he had an uncle called Dirk van Horne (1320-?), son of Gerard I of Horne. 'Loef' was a name popular with the Lords of Kleve. Uncle Dirk van Horne would succeed in becoming Lord of Perwez, and is therefore also known as Dirk of Perwez. Dirk of Perwez would try to help the sons of Willem IV of Horne's second marriage to claim their part of the inheritance of Gerard II of Horne. Early Years Dirk Loef was first mentioned on 1 September 1344. On that date John III, Duke of Brabant gave the children of Willem IV's second marriage: Willem (V), Dirk Loef, Arnold and Elisabeth, a heath and some other lands near Heeze. This was later known as the . M ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Willem V Of Horne
Willem V of Horne (c. 1337 - 1357) was a medieval nobleman. Family Willem V of Horne, was the oldest son of Willem IV of Horne and Elisabeth ('Else') of Kleef-Hülchrath. When Willem IV died, almost all of the inheritance went to Gerard II of Horne, oldest son out of his first marriage. The children of his second marriage were promised: Heeze, Leende and Herstal, but it seems that they did not get these lands. In older works Willem V of Horne was called Willem VI of Horne. Early Years Death of Gerard II of Horne The death of Gerard II of Horne in the September 1345 Battle of Warns was a massive blow for the Horne family. Gerard II had been a lord for only about two years. He had not yet married, and there are no signs that he had made any legal arrangements for a premature death. Willem V of Horne's inheritance Willem van Horne was about 8 years old when his half-brother Gerard II died. His interests were promoted by his uncle Dirk van Horne, oldest son of Gerard I and ...
