B. COMTES de BOULOGNE (FLANDERS) ADALOLF [Æthelwulf] of Flanders, son of BAUDOUIN II Count of Flanders & his wife Ælfthryth of Wessex (after [893/99]-13 Nov 933, bur Monastery of St Pierre). The Genealogica Arnulfi Comitis names (in order) "Arnulfum, fratrem eius Adelulfum" as the two sons of "Balduinus"[419]. "Adalolphus" is named as son of Count Baudouin II in the Cartulaire de Saint-Bertin, which specifies that he succeeded his father in 918 as Comte de Boulogne et de Thérouanne, lay-Abbot of St Bertin[420]. "Elstrudis comitissa…cum filiis suis Arnulfo et Adelolfo" donated "hereditatem suam Liefsham…in terra Anglorum in Cantia" to Saint-Pierre de Gand, for the soul of "senioris sui Baldwini", by charter dated 11 Sep 918[421]. The Annales Blandinienses record the death in 933 of "Adalulfus comes", specifying that he was buried "in monasterio sancti Petri"[422]. The De Arnulfo Comite records that "Adalulfi…uterinus frater Arnulfi magni" was killed by his own swineherd in a wood[423]. After his death in 933, his brother Arnoul I Count of Flanders seized the Boulonnais and Ternois, disinheriting his nephews[424]. m ---. The name of Adalolf's wife is not known. Comte Adalolf & his wife had [two] children: 1. [son (-962 before Sep). Europäische Stammtafeln shows an unnamed son “died 962, before Sep”[425]. The primary source which confirms this information has not been identified.] 2. ARNOUL [I] de Boulogne ([920/25]-after 31 Jan 972). "Arnulfus nepos ipsius comitis [Arnulfi]" is named in the Cartulaire de Saint-Bertin[426]. It is unlikely that he was born much before [920/25] considering the estimated birth date of his father. Lothaire IV King of the West Franks installed him as Comte de Boulogne et du Ternois[427]. "…Arnulfi Bononiensis comitis, Engelberti advocati…" signed the charter dated 31 Jan 972 under which "Arnulfus…marchysus" confirmed the possession of "Harnas…in pago Seirbiu" to Saint-Pierre de Gand[428]. Comte Adalolf had one illegitimate son by an unknown mistress: 3. BAUDOUIN [Baldzo] (-[28 Mar/29 Oct] 965 or 973). The De Arnulfo Comite names "Balduino cognamento Baldzoni…filius Adalulfi…ex concubina", specifying that he was guardian of the infant Arnoul II Count of Flanders, having previously been adopted by Count Arnoul I after his father was killed[429]. He was appointed regent of Flanders in 964 on the accession of Arnoul II Count of Flanders. "Theodericus comes et Baldwinus cognomento Baldzo et Ericus et Everwinus" donated property to Saint-Pierre de Gand, for the soul of "senioris sui Arnulfi defuncti", by charter dated 28 Mar 965[430]. Taking advantage of the weakness of the county during the minority of the new count, he made himself Comte de Courtrai[431]. He donated "villam Traslingehem" tothe abbey of St Pieter[432]. A charter dated 29 Oct 965 records that "Baldwinus bone memorie cognomento Baldzo" donated property to Saint-Pierre de Gand, for the soul of "senioris Arnulfi", signed by "Odgaudo advocato…"[433]. [The Annales Blandiniensesrecord the death in 973 of "Balzo filius Rodulfi comitis"[434], presumably an error for "Adalolfi" as it is unclear to whom "Rodulfi comes" refers. The Annales Formoselenses also record the death in 973 of "Balzo, filius Rodulfi comitis"[435].]
