John II of Dreux

John II of Dreux, called the Good (1265–1309), succeeded his father Robert IV as Count of Dreux in 1282. Under Philip IV the Fair he served in the long Flemish wars: he took Furnes, Cassel and Lille in 1297, survived Courtrai in 1302, and fought at Mons-en-Pévèle and the siege of Lille in 1304, then helped negotiate peace with Flanders.

In 1292 he married Jeanne of Beaujeu, lady of Montpensier. She bore him three successive counts, Robert V, John III and Peter I.
