Waleran I Of Limburg
Waleran (or Walram) II of Arlon (died 1082), supposedly also called Udon of Limburg, was the count of Arlon from Anno Domini, AD 1052 and, if he was the same person as Udon, also Duchy of Limburg, count of Limburg from 1065 and ''advocatus'' of the Abbey of Sint-Truiden. He was the younger son of Waleran I, Count of Arlon [ :de:Walram I. (Arlon), ''de'' ], and his wife Adelaide. His elder brother Fulk became Count of Arlon. The evidence for the origins and details of his family are incomplete. In 2007 Jean-Louis Kupper proposed that Udo and Walram II are probably two different people, who were both succeeded by Henry I of Limburg, Henry, count of Limbourg, who later became Duke of Lower Lotharingia. Some key facts for the two men would be as follows, according to Kupper: *Udon, Count of Limburg: In 1064 ''comes Udo de Lemburc'' made a benefaction to the church of St Adalbert in Aachen. In 1065, the year that Frederick, Duke of Lower Lorraine died, ''Udone'' was named by Bishop Alber ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Celtic languages, Celtic in language, according to Tacitus they claimed Germanic descent.Tacitus writes, "The Treveri and Nervii are even eager in their claims of a German origin, thinking that the glory of this descent distinguishes them from the uniform level of Gallic effeminacy."
