General Notes:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reginar_II,_Count_of_Hainaut
Reginar II (890\endash 932) was Count of Hainaut (also written Rainier II, Count of Hainault[1]) from 915 until 932.
He was the son of Reginar I Longneck, and this means his paternal grandmother was possibly a daughter of Charles the Bald and Ermentrude.
Flodoard's Annals, reports under the year 924 that Reginar the brother of Duke Gilbert of Lotharingia already had a son who was given as a hostage during conflicts between several of the Lotharingian magnates of the time.
By 943 he was dead, because a charter made in favor of his widowed daughter was done partly in the name of atoning for his sins.
Reginar II had at least three children with Adelaide of Burgundy:
Reginar III, Count of Hainaut
Rudolf, possibly a Count in the Hesbaye
Possibly Liethard or Liechard, a son mentioned in one 966 charter as a son of a Count Reginar.
A daughter who married to Nibelung, Count of Betuwe.
Upon his death, Reginar was succeeded as Count of Hainaut by his son and namesake.
Reginar married Adelaide (Alix) DE BOURGOGNE, daughter of Richard "Le Justicier" DE VIENNE , Duc de Bourgogne and Adelaïde DE BOURGOGNE.
