Marie of Boulogne was born 1136. She was the daughter of Stephen King of England and Matilda I of Boulogne. She married Mathieu de Flandre, son of Thierry Count of Flanders, about 1160. She died in 1182 in St Austrebert.
Marie of Boulogne was also known as Marie de Blois. Marie was born to King Stephen of England and his wife Matilda I, Countess of Boulogne. At an early age, she was apparently placed in a convent, but she became her childless brother William's heir in 1159. Since she was the heiress to the county of Boulogne, she was forced to leave her convent and married off to Matthew of Alsace (Matthias)( c.1130-1173), who would become Count of Boulogne and co-ruler (1160) through his marriage to her. The marriage was not a great success, although they reigned together until their divorce in 1170 and produced two daughters together.
