https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D'UdekemThe origin of the Udekem family dates back to the Late Middle Ages, with the earliest member recorded as dying in 1472. In the 18th century the Dominium of Acoz was obtained via marriage by the family.
Until 2000, the head of the d'Udekem family held the rank of Baron. After the wedding of Mathilde d'Udekem d'Acoz with the Duke of Brabant, King Albert II extended the hereditary title of Count to the three brothers Henri, Raoul and Patrick d'Udekem d'Acoz and to all their descendants.
Members of the family were active in politics.
