Historical background
ARTOIS - LORDSHIP OF FAUQUEMBERGUES - ELEANOR
(1290-1326)
The chronology of the lords of Fauquembergues is poorly established: Éléonore is mentioned for the first time in 1290 and disappears around 1326; she was the wife of Rasse de Gavre. The coin of Fauquembergues is mentioned and drawn in the ordinance known as "of the barons" of 1315 and a drawing is attached to it (coin not found).
