Everhard II (graaf van Limburg Hohenlimburg)

Everhard II Knight of Limburg Hohenlimburg (1298 - 11 November 1344) was the eldest son of Diederik II count of Limburg Hohenlimburg and Irmgard of Greifenstein, intended as a successor. Together with his brothers Kraft and Diederik, he is mentioned in their father's charters from 1324 onwards. But due to his early death, Everhard did not manage the county of Limburg independently as count. Around 1326 he married Jutta of Sayn, daughter of Engelbrecht II, Count of Sayn Homburg, and with her had two sons Diederik and Johan. Their great-uncles Hendrik and Diederik had previously died without descendants, while Everhard's uncle Kraft was canon of the abbey of Essen, and thus unmarried. The brothers were therefore in line to become direct heirs to their grandfather in 1364. Canon Kraft, then co-regent and guardian of his nephews, took care of the transfer of the county.
