ALEID. A
short form of Aleida (q.v.), from a
contraction of Adelaide
(q.v.), meaning "noble
cheer" or "noble maiden."
Usage: Germany, Holland.
JOHAN IV,
second son of Gerrit I, and brother of Hubrecht V, was eleventh Lord van
Culemborg. During his brother's life he was Lord of Weerd, and
during such period married Barbara, daughter of Lord van Gemen, but did
not have any children by her. His second wife was Aleid, daughter
of Arndt van Gutterswyk (ped. 96), Count of Bentheim, and Mechteld van
Reifferscheid. Aleid was sister of Everwyn van Gutterswyk, Count
of Bentheim. According to Zweder van Culemborg, Aleid was obtained
in marriage in the following manner: "It happened that after
his wife's death that Lord van Gemen was to marry the Count of
Bentheim's daughter, and asked Jan van Culemborg, his brother-in-law, to
visit him, which he did and saw the Jonkvrouw on behalf of van Gemen,
who said to him, "why do you keep talking of Jan van Gemen, speak
of yourself." One day when they were together he took her
upon his horse and carried her to Weerd to his castle, kept her there
and married her." By this wife he had three sons and four
daughters. (Allied Ancestry of the Van Culemborg Family of Culemborg,
Holland, Sellers, 1915).
