According to what I can see, Mathilde von Kleve is the mother of Dietrich II, Count of Cleves.

Zenia Barnard, Ph.D. Do you have a source for that Mathilde is the mother and not Beatrix that is also stated as mother? As I understand, both are wives of Dietrich I

No, it is just what I saw on the profile. You need to contact the curator of the profile, Pam Wilson, for sources and clarity around this issue.

I wrote to the managers of the profile to assist with clarifying the issue.

When in doubt, always check Medieval Lands: https://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/CONTENTS.htm

The Counts of Cleves are under "Lower Rhine Nobility" https://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/FRANCONIA%20(LOWER%20RHINE).htm#_T....

Looks like your "Dietrich II" is MedLands' "Dietrich I", and there are no clear links above him.
