Biography

He was a minor vicar from 19.6.1444 to late May 1445 [F-AD 59, 4G 7443, f. 7 ; F-CA, ms. 1058, f. 5]. His name is the most mangled among those of the small vicars: he is referred to as Herlevin, Helling, Harlemin, Valentin, Helbin, and Helluwin. His departure is exceptionally not recorded in the wine account, but is noted in the acts, when he is referred to as “recently let go” on 2.6.1445 (see above) and in an undated entry in the aumosne [F-AD 59, 4G 7762, fascicle of 1444-45, f. 12]. His connection with Cambrai was apparently limited to his minor vicariate (Planchart PCR / 2018 p. 739).
