General Notes: Wikipedia says of Arnulf II,
His father Baldwin III died in 962, when Arnulf was just an infant, whilst Arnulf's grandfather, Arnulf I, was still alive.[2] When Arnulf I died three years later (965), the regency was held by his kinsman Baldwin Balso, who died in 973.[3]

By the time Arnulf attained his majority in 976, Flanders had lost some of the southern territory acquired by Arnulf I.[3] The latter had given some parts of Picardy to King Lothar of France to help assure his grandson's succession, and gave Boulogne as a fief to another relative.[3] Then early in Arnulf's minority Lothar had taken Ponthieu and given it to Hugh Capet, and the first counts of Guînes had established themselves.[3] Arnulf died on 30 March 987 at age 26.[4] Shortly after Arnulf's death his widow married King Robert II of France.[4]

Arnoul married Rozala d'IVREA [119939], daughter of King Berengar II d'IVREA of Italy [119941] and Willa of Tuscany [119942]. Rozala was born in 952, died between Dec 1003 and Feb 1004 in Ghent Vlanderen Belgium, and was buried in Ghent Vlanderen Belgium. Another name for Rozala was Susanna d'IVREA.
