Waleran's coat of arms, with a crown and two tails. Waleran III (or Walram III) (c. 1165 – 2 July 1226) was initially lord of Montjoie, then count of Luxembourg from 1214. He became count of Arlon and duke of Limburg on his father's death in 1221. He was the son of Henry III of Limburg and Sophia of Saarbrücken.
Waleran was the son of Henry, Duke of Lower Lorraine (1101–1106), [1] and Adelaide of Pottenstein (Adelheid von Botenstein). Henry had been forced to yield the duchy to Godfrey I of Leuven on Henry V's succession, but had kept the ducal title.

Waleran (or Walram) II of Arlon (died 1082), supposedly also called Udon of Limburg, was the count of Arlon from AD 1052 and, if he was the same person as Udon, also count of Limburg from 1065 and advocatus of the Abbey of Sint-Truiden. He was the younger son of Waleran I, Count of Arlon, and his wife Adelaide.
Waleran III, Duke of Limburg, and Count jure uxorious of Durbuy, husband of the previous; Gérard I, Count of Durbuy, son of the previous. The succession from Henry to Waleran is somewhat murky. Childless, Henry designated his brother-in-law Baldwin IV, Count of Hainaut, as his heir.
By his first wife Margaret daughter of Humphrey III de Bohun he had Henry as son and heir to the earldom, and probably also Gundreda, confided as a child to the nuns of Pinley. This line ended with his granddaughter Countess Margaret. Waleran married secondly Alice, daughter of Robert de Harcourt. She survived him, dying probably in 1226.
