Cawley does not identify Bernhard's wife in anyway: http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/SAXON%20NOBILITY.htm#HermannIIWerle... "The name of Bernhard's wife is not known."

Named on some websites as "Beatrix Countess of Westphalia, Countess of Werl" which is just nonsense. If she was from the Westphalia family her name would be "Beatrix of Westphalia, Countess of Werl". If she married more than once she would not retain the earlier title, so she would either be "Beatrix, Countess of Westphalia" _or_ "Beatrix, Countess of Werl", not both.

This profile was previously named "Graaf van Arnsberg Nn Van Zwaben Gräfin von Werl-Hoevel (Erfdochter van Hoevel)" which is interesting but hardly correct.

Breaking it down:

• Her husband was Graf von Werl-Arnsberg, he inherited Werl from his father and his son became Graf von Arnsberg, so perhaps Arnsberg came into the family via marriage?
• Broadly speaking the region/period is Swabian (ie Zwaben).
• "Erfdochter" translates to daughter-in-law and in the oldest sense indicates that this woman would inherit her father's title(s) due to a lack of male heirs. So perhaps a daughter of the Graf von Hoevel? There is a later family Von Hövel connected to the counts of Arnsberg in the 1200s.
