Walter of Ghent (de Gand dit Villain) (died before 1260) was the second son of Hugues I and Odette de Champagne, daughter of Odo II of Champlitte. Hugues married Lady Avezoete, daughter of Abraham and perhaps of the house of Maelstede.[1] Although his brother inherited the lordship of Heusden and Bornhem, he received the lordship of Sint Jansteen.[2] He took the name Villain, a name synonymous with peasant or farm boy.[3]

Alexander, married Ysabeau d' Axelle

Sohier
Isabelle, married Jean Robert Van Den Kerchove Van Ter-Varent
