    Note: F. COMTES de MOHA Vanderkindere states that the county of Moha, whose territory was situated on the right bank of the river Mehaigne within the pagus of Hesbaie, was originally a seigneurie which adopted the status of a county because it was held by the counts of Dachsburg in Alsace[849]. It was not one of the four original counties which developed in the pagus of Hesbaie nor a pagus itself. The county of Moha was discussed by Daris in 1872[850]. The seigneurs de Moha are shown in this document until the acquisition by Albert [II] of the counties of Egisheim and Dachsburg as a result of his marriage with the heiress of those counties. Later counts of Moha are shown in the document ALSACE. After the death in 1212 of the last count of Dachsburg and Egisheim of the family of the seigneurs de Moha, his territories were inherited by his nephew Henri I Duke of Brabant, as shown by the undated charter under which "Adelbertus…comes Metensis et de Dasbourch" appointed "nepotem meum ducem Lotharingiæ" as his heir "de castro meo Dasbourgh et abbatia de Hessen, de castro Gerbaden, abbatia de Altorf, de castro de Drotein, de castro Albapai, de abbatia et advocatia de Herbreheym…comitatu et advocatia…de Metis…allodium de Musal et Waleve"[851]. Prior to this, Moha had been claimed by the counts of Looz as well as the dukes of Brabant, a settlement of the dispute being agreed in 1197, the date of a charter under which "Henricus dux Lotharingiæ et marchio et…Luduicus comes de Lon" agreed to divide "terram de Mussal" if "comes de Dasborc" died without heirs[852]. This latter arrangement was presumably superseded by the testament which appointed the duke of Brabant as sole heir to Moha. 1. ALBERT [I] de Moha (-after 1059). "...Albertum de Musal..." subscribed the charter dated 1031 under which "Godeschalcus præpositus" founded a college of canons at Liège Saint-Barthélemy[853]. Archbishop Poppo of Trier confirmed the donation by "comitem Kadelonem et eius contectalem Irmingart" by undated charter, placed in the compilation with charters dated [1040/44], subscribed by "Duci Godefrido, Adalberto de Musel, comes Becelinus…"[854]. Comte de Moha: “...Ottonis advocati et fratris eius Emmonis comitis de Los, Alberti comitis de Musal...” signed the charter dated 1059 under which “Fredericus...Lothariencium dux” donated a serf to Saint-Trond[855]. 2. ALBERT [II] [de Moha] (-24 Aug 1098). It is possible that Albert [II] was the son of Albert [I] but the primary source which confirms that this is correct has not yet been identified. Graf von Egisheim und Dachsburg 1089. Comte de Moha: "Albertus comes de Musau" donated property "ecclesias unam in Monte Sancti Martini et alteram in Villari" to the church of Verdun Sainte-Vanne by charter dated 10 May 1096[856]. The necrology of Verdun Saint-Vanne records the death "IX Kal Sep" of "Albertus comes Dasburgensis qui nobis cellam Montis Sancti Martini…dedit"[857]. - GRAFEN von EGISHEIM und DACHSBURG.

    Note: ALBERT [II] [de Moha] (-24 Aug 1098). It appears possible from a chronological point of view that Albert [II] was the son of Albert [I] Comte de Moha but the primary source which confirms that this is correct has not been identified. Comte de Moha: "Albertus comes de Musau" donated property "ecclesias unam in Monte Sancti Martini et alteram in Villari" to the church of Verdun Sainte-Vanne by charter dated 10 May 1096[291]. Graf von Dagsburg: the necrology of Verdun Saint-Vanne records the death "IX Kal Sep" of "Albertus comes Dasburgensis qui nobis cellam Montis Sancti Martini…dedit"[292]. It appears likely that Albert [II] inherited Dagsburg, through his first wife, after the death of her supposed brother Hugo [X] in 1089, but the primary source which confirms that this is correct has not been identified. m firstly HEILWIG [von Dagsburg], daughter of [HEINRICH [I] Graf von Egisheim und Dagsburg & his wife ---]. The Codex Hirsaugiensis names "Adalbertus comes de Egensheim et uxor eius Heilewig"[293]. The following charter confirms that Heilwig was the sister of Bruno Archdeacon of Toul, but does not confirm the parentage of the two siblings: [her son] "Hugo comes" donated property to Kloster Lüders for the soul of "patris sui…Albertis comitis et avunculi sui Brunonis archidiaconis Tullensis" by charter dated 1137[294]. Her husband’s inheritance of Dagsburg suggests that she was the heiress of Hugo [X], maybe his sister. The primary source which confirms this relationship has not been identified. m secondly as her first husband, ERMESINDE de Luxembourg, daughter of CONRAD [I] Comte de Luxembourg & his second wife Clementia --- ([1085?]-26 Jun 1141). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "comitem Guilelmum de Luscelenburg…et Ermensendem…et Mathildem" as children of "Conrado comiti de Luscelenburch" and his wife Ermesinde, specifying that Ermesinde was wife of "Namucensem…comitis Godefridi"[295]. However, Ermesinde´s correct parentage is stated in the charter dated 17 Jun 1129 under which Meginher Archbishop of Trier confirmed the foundation of Kloster Schiffenberg by "Clementia…comitissa" with the consent of "filii sui Willehelmi et filie Irmesindis"[296]. No source has been found which indicates her birth date, but the fact that she is recorded as having five children by her second husband suggests that she was born towards the end of her father’s life. "Ermensendis comitissa Namucensis" confirmed the prior donation of property to the church of Verdun Sainte-Vanne by "senioris mei comitis Alberti" by charter dated to [1124], subscribed by "domni mei Godefridi comitis et filii mei Henrici comitis, Hugonis filii Folmari comitis, Everardi filii Aiulfi comitis"[297]. In a charter dated 1139, "Albero…Leodiensium episcopus" notes a donation of property to the abbey of Marcigny-sur-Loire by "domna Ermensendis comitissa de Musalt, quæ uxor extitit…comitis Alberici" on the suggestion of "quadam nobili et religiosa fœmina nomine Regina, sibi enim consanguinea"[298], the original donation presumably being dated before [1109] when Ermesinde married her second husband. She married secondly ([1109]) as his second wife, Godefroi I Comte de Namur. "Ermensendis comitissa de Muhalt, quæ uxor…comitis Alberti" founded the monastery of Saint-Victor, Huy by charter dated 1130[299]. Heiress of Luxembourg and Longwy, after the death of her nephew Comte Conrad [II] in 1136. "Comitissa de Musal Ermensendis cum viro suo Namucensi comite Godefrido" donated property to Flône, at the request of "Guntranni et Gisle uxoris eius", by charter dated 1137[300]. The necrology of Verdun Saint-Vanne records the death "VIII Kal Jun" of "Ermensendis comitissa Namucensis qui cum viro suo…comite Alberto cellam Montis Sancti Martini…confirmavit"[301]. The primary source which confirms the year of her death has not been identified. Albert [II] & his first wife had one child: 1. [HEINRICH] HUGO [XI] (-after 1137). Albert [II] & his [second] wife had [two] children: 2. [MECHTILD (-[1135/57])). 3. [daughter .
