The Poupat title descended from this same lineage famously. I made much over this in the fifties and a member of the French corps diplomatique who served as proconsul(?) in Hollywood, California included it in a work of fiction as a reference but the real origin of the lineage of Boisserignier is equally as ancient as that of Mouscron: the founder was Lord Isaac of Valencia who built the castle of Boisserignier-Isaac in late eleventh-century, thirty kilometres south of Brussels. He left on Crusade with Godefroid de Bouillon, leaving a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary underneath a lime tree, and was captured. He prayed to the Virgin and Mere Marie, Queen of Heaven appeared to him, asking him why he had left her image exposed to the rain and the snow. He promised to build her a vault if he was delivered.
Chevalier Isaac built her her vault and deposited the Holy Grail of Valencia there. He was the first Bois Serignier or "Lord of the Wood". A descendant in 1415, Jean the Knight who used the surname "Huldenburghe" associated with Burchart or Bois-serignier/seigneur, witnessed the miracle of the True Presence or miraculous euchariste of the holy grail at Boisserignier. In 1413 under Chevalier Jean the Cardinal Legate confirmed this miracle of the Saint-Sang or "Holy Blood" overflowing at Boisserignier in the Cambria diocese of which Boisserignier was dependant, and its procession was continued at least until as late as 1667 but probably right up until the French Revolution. Countess(?) Catherine de Huldenberghe born 1522 Neerijsche Brabant married Antoine de Tenremonde and their daughter Jeanne born 1548. Christina Huldenberghe married 17 July 1687 Kurtrijk in West Flandres to Antonius Joseph Bogaert born 1666 of perhaps yet another branch of Burchart or Bouquart. Baroness(?) Therese Bassilia von Huldenberghe van der Borch/Borchart/Bois-serignier born 1758 Bruges married 1780 Hugo Leopold Valentin Georg von Nordeck zur Rabenau.
The castle passed away from the possession of the Borchart/Huldenbergs to the families of Dave and Sainte-Aldegonde. The castle was declared "Inheritance Exceptional" of the Area of Walloon in 1993. http://www.thinline.com/~ccoulomb/guidance.html
