What type of Knight?

Legg inn av Valerie Karvoski » 15 feb 2006 17:54:13

One of my husband's ancestors was Rombaut van Wachtendonck, who was
supposedly a knight. Rombaut was from Ossendrent (probably
Ossendrecht). He was married to Aleyt de Cock van Beusekom. I only have
information about one child, Christina (surname spelled von
Wachtendonk), who was born between 1483 - 1487, in Herzogtum Geldern,
and died on 05 January 1561, in (Mechelen) Malines, Belgium. Christina
married Johann Baptista von Taxis, in either 1513, or 1514.
I do not know much about Knighthood, except that there were different
types (Orders) of them, such as Knights of the _______. Does anybody
have an idea what type of Knight Rombaut van Wachtendonck may have
been, and where I can find out information on that Order of Knights?
Many thanks.
