  Biography
  Hildegard de Flanders (born 936/937-died. 975/980), by marriage she became countess (gravin) van Holland. Daughter of Arnulf I, graaf van Vlaanderen (885/890-965) and Adela van Vermandois (910/915-960). Hildegard van Vlaanderen married in 948 or 949 Dirk II, graaf van Holland en West-Friesland (936/941-988). From this marriage at least two sons and one daughter were born
  
  1.) Aarnout (Gent 951-993), ook wel Arnulf Gandensis genoemd, die zijn opvolger werd
  
  2.) Egbert van Trier (952-994), aartsbisschop van Trier
  
  3.) Erlindis (953-1012)
  
  possibly an Unknown daughter who married graaf Everhard van Doornik.
  
  Diederik II died in 988. He was buried in the new abbey church of Egmond, in the grave in which Hildegard was buried eight years earlier. Their gospel book remained in the abbey for six centuries, then swirled around, and resurrected in Utrecht in 1805. Thanks to King Willem I, it has been in the Royal Library since 1830
  
  === Political Marriage ===
  Hildegard was engaged as a toddler and married around 950 at the age of twelve. With this Arnulf worked towards greater control in Holland, which fitted in with his expansion policy. On the other hand, Hildegard brought Carolingian blood into the dynasty of Holland, and Holland got closer contacts with the County of Flanders.
  
  === help? Where did her lineage of ancestors go? ===
  
  Hello-
  I am researching Hildegarde van Vlaanderen and then her family tree disappeared from Family Search!!! Why?? It was there one day and I took screen shots. Then it disappeared.
  
  I had traced my lineage to her through her spouse of Unknown, when they had one child, Vicomte De Chateaudun Geoffrey II
  
  Male0966 – 14 April 1023 •
  
  They were my ancestors and I don't know why her lineage disappeared from one day to the next.
  
  Is there any way you could help me?
  
  Thank you!
