Comte Baudouin & his wife had ten children

Curator (dvb) Note:
Guillaume de Wailly shows Baudoin with a 2nd unknown wife with 5 children listed as half-siblings of these from the known wife Chestienne de MARCK.

Half-siblings On the side of Baudoin II de GUÎNES, deceased in 1205 - Ardres, 62038, Pas de Calais, Nord-Pas-de-Calais, France, Comte de Guines with Ne'S N, Relations M Geoffroy de GUÎNES 1177/- M Boldequin de GUÎNES 1177/- M Eustache de GUÎNES 1177/-1260 M Guillaume de GUÎNES M Eustache de GUÎNES

Etienne Pattou has an entry without names “(posterity including 5 bastards and 2 canons)” that seems to me to be confirmation.
