About James of Avesnes

James of Avesnes was a son of Nicholas d'Oisy, Lord of Avesnes and Matilda de la Roche. He was the lord of Avesnes, Condé, and Leuze from 1171. In November 1187, James joined the Third Crusade as leader of a detachment of French, Flemish, and Frisian crusaders arriving by ship on the Palestinian coast near Acre around 10 September 1189. James and his men came as military reinforcements for the Siege of Acre. While leading his contingent of soldiers, the other main leaders of the siege were Guy of Lusignan and Henry of Champagne, neither of them gaining a dominant position in leading the siege.
