W., der mit Vorliebe auf der wahrscheinlich von ihm ausgebauten Burg Nideggen im Roerthale residirte, hatte aus seiner Ehe mit Alveradis von Molbach nur einen Sohn Wilhelm, der aber schon in sehr jungen Jahren starb. Die Grafschaft vererbte auf Eberhard, aus der Jülich’schen Nebenlinie der Herren von Hengebach (Heimbach), Gemahl von Wilhelm’s Schwester Jutta, und da dieser seines Alters wegen die Regierung nicht antrat, auf dessen ältesten Sohn Wilhelm (III.).
