Saint Emebert, often identified with bishop Ablebert of Cambrai (early 8th century). He would have been the son of duke Witger of Lotharingia and Saint Amalberga of Maubeuge. His siblings include four other saints, Ermelinde, Gudula, Pharaildis and Reineldis. According the "Gesta Episcoporum Cameracensis" he was buried in a place called Ham, located in the vicinity of Cambrai. His body was afterwards taken to the abbey of Maubeuge. His feast day is celebrated on January 15 at Arras, Cambrai and Ghent.
