Her first marriage is indicated by the Fundatio Sancti Pauli in Carinthia which names "Poppo gener comitis" as first witness to a charter of Engelbert dated 2 Dec 1092, although this document does not name Poppo’s wife[976]. Her second marriage is indicated by the following document: "Rihkart uxor Gebehardi comitis et filius eius Engilpreht" donated a mill “apud Chlotheim” to Ebersberg by undated charter[977]. Richgard's origin is confirmed by the following document: "Rihkart cometissa" donated "curtis ad Gurk" to Kloster St Paul by charter dated to [1106], witnessed by “Bernhart et Heinrih fratres eius...”[978]. [Richgard may have married thirdly Berthold [I] [von Schwarzenberg]. Wegener speculates that Berthold [I] was her first husband[979]. The chronology of Richgard herself and of her first and second husbands suggests that she could only have married Berthold as her third husband. This suggestion fits neatly into a proposed new reconstruction of the Schwarzenberg/Regensburg family, shown in the present document, aimed at reconciling apparently contradictory sources relating to the family origin of Friedrich [I] Archbishop of Köln. One difficulty is that Richgard would have had sons named Engelbert by both her second and third husbands, which seems unlikely.]"

Berthold III von Andechs Graf von Andechs1

M, #19864, b. circa 1030, d. between 1095 and 1098
ReferenceGAV27 EDV28
Last Edited23 Aug 2020
     Berthold III von Andechs Graf von Andechs married Sophie von Schweinfurt, daughter of Otto III (?) Duke of Schwaben, Markgraf von Schweinfurt and Irmingard de Susa.2,3,4
Berthold III von Andechs Graf von Andechs was born circa 1030.
Berthold III von Andechs Graf von Andechs died between 1095 and 1098.
     ; NB: The identity of the parents of Berthold Graf von Andechs who m1 Sophie von Krain un Istriedn and m2 Kunibunde von Formbach-Puitten is inconclusive.
     Wikipedia states: "Berthold's ancestry has not been conclusively established. According to the Europäische Stammtafeln genealogy, he was probably the elder son and heir of Count Arnold of Dießen (d. 1098) and his wife Gisela of Schweinfurt, a daughter of Duke Otto III of Swabia."
     Wikipedia (De.) also shows his parents as "Grafen Arnold von Dießen († 1098) und der Gisela von Schweinfurt."
     Genealogy.EU (Diessen 1) shows his parents as "Graf Berthold II von Diessen m. N von Hohenwart"
     Med Lands shows Berthold's father as Arnold von Diessen. Hoiwever, Med Lands states that his mother was named Gisela, but questions whether his mother was Gisela von Schweinfurt.
     However, Genealogics says that his parents were Berthold III, Graf von Andecs and Gisela von Schwaben, quoting:
     1. Europäische Stammtafeln, Band I, Frank Baron Freytag von Loringhoven, 1975, Isenburg, W. K. Prinz von. 26a.
2. Europäische Stammtafeln, J.A. Stargardt Verlag, Marburg, Schwennicke, Detlev (Ed.) 1.1:86B.
Conclusion: For the moment, I have chosen to follow the Med Lands lineage. GA Vaut.5,6,7,8,9,10,11

Reference: Genealogics cites: Stammtafeln zur Geschichte der Europäischen Staaten, 4 volumes, Marburg, 1953, 1975., W. K. Prinz von Isenburg, Reference: I 26.12 GAV-27 EDV-28 GKJ-27.
; NB: There is disagreement concerning the von Diessen family. This includes the parents of Berthold II. Genealogics and Genealogy.EU show one lineage. Med Lands shows a different descent, with material differences.
     A good description of the likely source of the confusion is found on Med Lands:
     "The following Graf Friedrich [II] is recorded in 1025 (as the father of Berthold [I]), in 1027 (twice, once as father of Otto [I]), and in 1030. He was therefore presumably a different person from Graf Friedrich [I], who is recorded as having died in Jerusalem before 1020. It is not known how the two Grafen Friedrich may have been related, if at all. However, the continuity of references to Diessen suggests a close connection, maybe father and son. Wegener conflates Graf Friedrich [I] and Graf Friedrich [II] as he appears to ignore the reference to the death of the former before 1020[609]. The De Fundatoribus Monasterii Diessenses does not name a second Graf Friedrich, although this is not surprising considering that it appears to ignore the generations between Graf Friedrich [I] and Otto Graf von Wolfratshausen[610]. Generally, the reconstruction of the family of the Grafen von Diessen is hindered rather than helped by the speculative connections suggested by Wegener. An attempt has been made in the following passages to explain these speculations and highlight any contradictions with primary sources which he does not cite. Unfortunately, it appears that many of these misleading speculations have found their way into the tables in Europäische Stammtafeln in which they appear as definite. In the case of this family, therefore, it is more important than ever to use the "back to basics" approach and start again from scratch in compiling information from primary sources. Hopefully, the results are relatively accurate but it is admitted that it is particularly challenging to achieve a definitive reconstruction of this family and no doubt further improvements are possible."
     A. Genealogics relies on Europäische Stammtafeln and shows:
|-->A.1 Berthold I Graf an der Oberen Isar d/ ca 26 Aug 990
|------>A.1.1 Dietrich I, Graf im Wasserburg living 1003
|---------->A.1.1.1 Friedrich I, Graf von Diessen m. Kunizza von Oenningen d. 1020

|------>A.1.1.2 Friedrich II, Graf von Diessen d. 23 Jan 1075 m1 Hadamut von Eppenstein m2 Irmingard von Gilching m3 Tuta von Regensburg
     B. Genealogy.EU (Diessen I) cites now sources and shows.
B.1 Berthold I, Pfalzgraf von Bayern. 978/26.8.990; m. N of Upper-Lorraine
|-->B.1.1 Dietrich, d. 1020
|-->B.1.2 Friedrich I Diessen d. 1030

|------>B.1.2.2 Friedrich II, Gf von Diessen. 1055 m1 Hadamut von Eppenstein m2 Irmengard von Gilching m3 NN von Regensburg
     C. Med Lands cites multiple sources and shows the following:
First of all, Med Lands says: "According to Wegener, Graf Friedrich [I] was the son of Berthold von Reisensburg, son of Arnulf Pfalzgraf in Bavaria [Luitpoldinger][596]. He bases this on a "Berthold" witnessing several exchanges of property in the oberen Isar dated [990/99], and equating him with Berthold von Reisensburg. Several points can be made about this theory. Firstly, it seems surprising that such an illustrious connection with the Luitpoldinger Dukes of Bavaria would not have been mentioned by the various contemporary sources which relate the early history of the Grafen von Diessen. Secondly, the estimated birth date of Berthold von Reisensburg is restricted to the limited period [929/31], bearing in mind the known dates of his own career and the likely birth date of his father. His last known mention is dated 976. Another burst of activity fourteen years after that date would be surprising when he would then have been in his sixties. Thirdly, judging from the 976 entry, Berthold von Reisensburg appears to have fallen into disgrace with Emperor Otto II. There is no record of his return to favour. It is likely therefore that he died soon after and that his descendants (if any) fell into obscurity. Fourthly, it is surprising that Berthold von Reisensburg would not have been described as comes even in entries relating to the period after his disgrace as he would presumably have continued to claim and use the title."

Med Lands thus severs the links between the A.1 and A.1.1 (Genealogics line above) and that between B.1 and both B.1.1 and B.1.2 (Genealogy.EU line above). Med Links shows no ancestors for either Friedrich I or Dietrich, but in fact hypothesizes that they might possibly have been brothers.
C.1. Friedrich [I] "Roch" ( d. Jerusalem before 1020) m. KUNIGUNDE [Kunizza],
C.2. Dietrich d. 1010/20 or after "Wegener refers to "Fridericus comes, Dietricus comes" witnessing a charter relating to land at Weiher, near Wasserburg, dated [1010/20], suggesting that the two may have been brothers[608]." (Citing [608] Quellen bayerischen Geschichte, Neue Folge, Band 8, p. 230 n 287, cited in Wegener (1965/67), p. 148.)
C.3 Friedrich [II] (-1030 or after).
|-->C.3.1 Berthold [I] (d after 16 May 1060).
|-->C.3.2 Friedrich [III] d 30 Jun 1075)
|------>C.3.2.1 Arnold von Diessen (d. aft 1091) m. NN von Schweinfurt (not Gisela)
|---------->C..2.1.1 Berthold [III] (-27 Jun 1151) m1. Sophie of Istria m2. Kunigunde von Formbach

Conclusion: I find Med Lands' presentation most convincing and have now changed my data to reflect this. GA Vaut.13,14,15,12,16,11,17,18

III. Med Lands - This is a more fragmented descent in that, while the individuals are listed, their parent/child connections are not shown or are shown as uncertain. The following generations are shown , with ">>>" indicating no connection shown, though the individuals are listed:
1. NN m. Adelheid LNU 9d aft 28 Nov 1043)
2. Gebhard I (d aft 1085) m. ?
>>>>>>
3. Gebhard II (d. 1085) m. Irmgard von Rott
4. Berengar III (1080-3 Dec 1125) m1. Adelheid von Lechsgemünd m2. Adelheid von von Wolfratshausen
5. Gebhard III (d. 28 Oct 1188) m. Mathilde of Bavaria

Med Lands offers a few comments on the uncertainties:
     1. Re father of Gebhard I: "Wegener assumes that Adelheid was the widow of Hermann IV Duke of Swabia[1817]. He presumably bases this assumption on a creative interpretation of the 14th century Deutsche Reimchronik of Kloster Kastel which records that Ernst Duke of Swabia (presumably indicating Duke Ernst I, father of Duke Hermann IV) had “ain Suen...Gebhardus...Sultzpach”[1818]. No other primary source has been found which indicates any family relationship between the Babenberger dukes of Swabia and the Grafen von Sulzbach. It is suggested that the Deutsche Reimchronik represents a fantasised version of the connection. In any case, Adelaida di Susa, widow of Duke Hermann IV, was married to Enrico di Monferrato in [early 1042] and in two charters dated the following year is recorded in northern Italy (see the document SWABIA DUKES). It is unlikely therefore that she would have been recorded as holding property in the Bavarian Nordgau around the same time. In addition, if Gebhard had been her son it is likely that he would have claimed the duchy of Swabia at some point."

     2. Re relationship between Gebhard I and Gebhard 2: "Wegener identifies Gebhard [I] with Gebhard who is named as Graf von Sulzbach in 1071, who is shown below as Gebhard [II][1820]. If that is correct, Gebhard [II]’s marriage to Irmgard von Rott must have been his second marriage."

Conclusion: I have chosen to follow the basic lineage shown by Genealogy.EU, building in the information and warnings from the other three sources. GA Vaut.10,11,12,13,14 He was Per Genealogics:
     "Gebhard III was born about 1114, the son of Berengar I, Graf von Sulzbach, and his second wife Adelheid von Diessen. After his father's death in 1125 he was appointed count of Sulzbach, and he was also count of Floss and margrave from 1146 to 1149. In 1129, probably on 24 October, he married Mathilde von Bayern, widow of Diepold IV, Graf von Vohburg, and daughter of Heinrich 'the Black', Herzog von Bayern, and Wulfhild von Sachsen. They had five children of whom Elisabeth and Adelheid would have progeny. Gebhard survived all his children, including his son Berengar III who died childless in 1167.
     "After his sister Mathilde died without heirs in 1165, on 22 December that year Gebhard reached an agreement with her widower Engelbert III, margrave of Istria and of Tuscany, to take over her extensive inheritance in the Chiemgau. In 1144 he had also inherited the fortress of Warberg.
     "Gebhard was mentioned in the first report of the foundation of the abbey of Berchtesgaden written between 1125 and 1136 _(Fundatio monasterii Berchtesgadensis)._ In 1121, as a youth he made a donation to the 'brethren of the Church of St. John the Baptist and St. Peter' in Berchtesgaden from the inheritance of his mother 'for the salvation of his soul and that of his parents'.
     "Later, he also appears as a witness in the 'Freedom Charter', the Golden Bull of Emperor Friedrich I Barbarossa of 1156 in which he confirmed the right of the Berchtesgaden abbey and its then provost Heinrich I to choose and dismiss its steward. The Bull also guaranteed the abbey's land and forest holdings. This also indirectly benefitted Gebhard, as the secular authority over the lands around Berchtesgaden, as the local economy prospered through the development of forestry, salt harvesting and mining.
     "All this aroused the aspirations of the Counts of Plain, in whose county Berchtesgaden lay. However, after Emperor Friedrich's 'Freedom Charter' of 1156 guaranteed the possessions and rights of the abbey, the position of the Sulzbach governor was sufficiently consolidated to displace the counts. And though Provost Heinrich was assured in the 'Freedom Charter' of their authority to dismiss a steward, he and his immediate predecessors and successors were highly satisfied with their Sulzbach steward. A few years before his death, in 1183 Gebhard granted the abbey a very valuable share in the salt from Reichenhall.
     "Gebhard was not only steward of Berchtesgaden, but of the cathedral of Regensburg and of the abbeys of Niedermünster and Passau-Niedernburg. With his death on 28 October 1188 the house of the counts of Sulzbach died out in the male line.”.15

     "GEBHARD [III] (-28 Oct [1188], bur Kastl). The 14th century Deutsche Reimchronik of Kloster Kastel names “von Flozz Grave Gebhart” as the son of Berengar and his wife “Von Wolfratshusen...Alhait”[1861]. “Comes...Peringarius unacum uxore sua Adelheida ac filio Gebehardo” donated “ex hereditate matris...in villa Grettich et in Sconeberge et in Grauingadem” to Berchtesgaden by undated charter[1862]. Wegener dates this charter to early Dec 1125[1863]. Graf von Sulzbach. “...Comes Gebhardus de Sulzbach...” witnessed the donation of “predium Hovesteten” to Ensdorf made by “Pilgrimo de Ebermundestorf” by charter dated to [1129][1864]. “Marchio Dietpaldus advocatus in Richinbach” delegated “Gebehardo comiti de Sulzbach” as “advocato sanctimonialium predictarum” by undated charter[1865]. “Theobaldus marchio, Udalricus comes de Leutenberg, Gebhardus de Sulzbach” witnessed an undated charter recording a donation to Freising[1866]. “Comes Gebehardus et uxor eius Mahthilt de Sulzpach” donated “tria predia...Giselhartesriuth...Witenriuth...Chruchilsdorf” to Berchtesgaden by undated charter[1867]. “...Comes...Gebehardus de Sulzbach et filius eius Beringerus...” witnessed the donation of “predium Druskin” to Ensdorf made by “comitissa Adelheit de Wartberc” by charter dated to [1144][1868].

"...Gebehardus comes de Sulzbach, Gebehardus comes de Liukenberg..." witnessed the charter dated 28 Jun 1168 under which Emperor Friedrich I granted property to Engelbert Graf von Berg[1870]. The necrology of Baumburg records the death "V Kal Nov" of "Gebhardus com de Sultzpach"[1871]. The Latin Chronicle of Kloster Kastel records the death “V Kal Nov” 1187 of “Dominus Gebhardus...comes de Flozz filius Perngeri comitis de Sultzpach” and his burial “in monasterio Scti Petri in Kastello iuxta patrem suum”[1872].

     Hedwig/Hadwich (?) of Saxony was born in 1047.3 She married Engelbert I (?) Graf im Kraichgau, Graf von Sponheim, son of Siegfried (?) Count of Leventhal, Markgraf of Ungarnmark, Graf im Pustertal and Richardis/Richgard (?) of Pusterthal.4,5,6,7,1

Hedwig/Hadwich (?) of Saxony died after 1 June 1100.6,1
      ; Per Med Lands:
     "ENGELBERT [I] von Sponheim, son of SIEGFRIED Graf von Sponheim und im Pustertal ex-Markgraf & his wife Richgard [Sieghardinger] (-1 Apr 1096). The Fundatio Monasterii Sancti Pauli in Carinthia names "comes Engelbertus ex patre Sigfrido Francorum civis, ex matre Rihkarda maiorum Karinthia primus"[618]. Graf im Kraichgau. Graf von Sponheim [1070]. Graf im Pustertal 1070. Vogt of Salzburg. The necrology of Regensburg St Emmeram records the death "Kal Apr" of "Engilbertus ex comite m"[619]. The necrology of Seckau records the death "Kal Apr" of "Engelbertus fundator s Pauli in Lavant"[620].
     "m [as her second husband,] HEDWIG, [widow of --- von Schwarzenberg,] daughter of --- (-1 Jun [after 1100]). The Fundatio Sancti Pauli in Carinthia names "Hadwich cometissa Engelberti relicta", and lists (in order) "Engelbert et Pernhart et Hainrich filii ipsius" as witnesses to the related diploma[621]. A possible family origin of Hedwig is indicated by the Genealogia ex stirpe Sancti Arnulfi which names "Idam Namucensem…uxorem Angelberti marchionis et Gertrudem comitissam Flandrensem" as the children of "Bernardum"[622]. It is not certain to whom "Angelberti marchionis" refers, but it is possible that it is Engelbert [I] Graf von Sponheim whose father bore the title Markgraf. If that is correct, Hedwig could have been Hedwig of Saxony, daughter of Bernhard II Duke of Saxony [Billung] & his wife Eilika von Schweinfurt. Wegener points out that a Saxon origin for Hedwig is consistent with the introduction of the names Bernhard and Heinrich into the family of the Grafen von Sponheim[623]. However, if Hedwig was the daughter of Duke Bernhard, she must have been born in the range [1020/40], which seems early in light of the chronology of her children. Her possible first marriage is suggested as a possible way of reconciling apparently contradictory sources relating to the family origin of Friedrich [I] Archbishop of Köln. Another possibility is that Engelbert [I] married twice, his earlier unrecorded wife being the widow of --- von Schwarzenberg. Wegener cites a source according to which Babo Abbot of Deutz was named avunculus of Berthold's son Friedrich[624]. If that is correct, and if “avunculus” was used in this document in its strict sense of maternal uncle, Abbot Babo was the brother of the wife of “--- [von Schwarzenberg]”. The question of the family origin of Archbishop Friedrich is discussed fully in the document BAVARIA NOBILITY. The necrology of Regensburg St Emmeram records the death "Kal Jun" of "Hadewich coma"[625]."

     Sponheim 1 page says that Engelbert m. Hedwig von Eppenstein (+17.7.1112), dau.of Markwart IV von Eppenstein;
     Wikipedia (DE) identifies her as "Hadwig Billung, Tochter des Bernhard II. von Sachsen", citing: Wilhelm Wegener (Hrsg.): Genealogische Tafeln zur mitteleuropäischen Geschichte. Reise, Göttingen 1962–1969, S. 271.
     Genealogics just identifies her as Hadwich and shows no parents.
     Med Lands discusses the possibility that she was of Saxon origin (see Med Lands note for more detail of this discussion).

The necrology of Regensburg St Emmeran records the death "Kal Jun" of "Hadewich coma"[352].

; Per Genealogics:
     "Friedrich was the son of Dietrich I, Graf im Wasserburg. He was steward of the Cathedral of Regensburg. He married three times: first to Hadamut, daughter of Eberhard von Eppenstein; then to Irmingard von Gilching, and finally to Tuta, daughter and heiress of Hartwich, Domvogt von Regensburg (steward of the Regensburg Cathedral).
     "He had numerous children from his second marriage. _Europäische Stammtafeln_ attributes his son Berthold I, who would have progeny, to his third marriage.
     "Friedrich died about 1075 as a lay monk in St. Blasien."5 GAV-28.
; NB: There is disagreement concerning the von Diessen family. This includes the parents of Berthold II. Genealogics and Genealogy.EU show one lineage. Med Lands shows a different descent, with material differences.
     A good description of the likely source of the confusion is found on Med Lands:
     "The following Graf Friedrich [II] is recorded in 1025 (as the father of Berthold [I]), in 1027 (twice, once as father of Otto [I]), and in 1030. He was therefore presumably a different person from Graf Friedrich [I], who is recorded as having died in Jerusalem before 1020. It is not known how the two Grafen Friedrich may have been related, if at all. However, the continuity of references to Diessen suggests a close connection, maybe father and son. Wegener conflates Graf Friedrich [I] and Graf Friedrich [II] as he appears to ignore the reference to the death of the former before 1020[609]. The De Fundatoribus Monasterii Diessenses does not name a second Graf Friedrich, although this is not surprising considering that it appears to ignore the generations between Graf Friedrich [I] and Otto Graf von Wolfratshausen[610]. Generally, the reconstruction of the family of the Grafen von Diessen is hindered rather than helped by the speculative connections suggested by Wegener. An attempt has been made in the following passages to explain these speculations and highlight any contradictions with primary sources which he does not cite. Unfortunately, it appears that many of these misleading speculations have found their way into the tables in Europäische Stammtafeln in which they appear as definite. In the case of this family, therefore, it is more important than ever to use the "back to basics" approach and start again from scratch in compiling information from primary sources. Hopefully, the results are relatively accurate but it is admitted that it is particularly challenging to achieve a definitive reconstruction of this family and no doubt further improvements are possible."
     A. Genealogics relies on Europäische Stammtafeln and shows:

|------>A.1.1 Dietrich I, Graf im Wasserburg living 1003

|------>B.1.2.2 Friedrich II, Gf von Diessen. 1055 m1 Hadamut von Eppenstein m2 Irmengard von Gilching m3 NN von Regensburg
     C. Med Lands cites multiple sources and shows the following:
First of all, Med Lands says: "According to Wegener, Graf Friedrich [I] was the son of Berthold von Reisensburg, son of Arnulf Pfalzgraf in Bavaria [Luitpoldinger][596]. He bases this on a "Berthold" witnessing several exchanges of property in the oberen Isar dated [990/99], and equating him with Berthold von Reisensburg. Several points can be made about this theory. Firstly, it seems surprising that such an illustrious connection with the Luitpoldinger Dukes of Bavaria would not have been mentioned by the various contemporary sources which relate the early history of the Grafen von Diessen. Secondly, the estimated birth date of Berthold von Reisensburg is restricted to the limited period [929/31], bearing in mind the known dates of his own career and the likely birth date of his father. His last known mention is dated 976. Another burst of activity fourteen years after that date would be surprising when he would then have been in his sixties. Thirdly, judging from the 976 entry, Berthold von Reisensburg appears to have fallen into disgrace with Emperor Otto II. There is no record of his return to favour. It is likely therefore that he died soon after and that his descendants (if any) fell into obscurity. Fourthly, it is surprising that Berthold von Reisensburg would not have been described as comes even in entries relating to the period after his disgrace as he would presumably have continued to claim and use the title."

Med Lands thus severs the links between the A.1 and A.1.1 (Genealogics line above) and that between B.1 and both B.1.1 and B.1.2 (Genealogy.EU line above). Med Links shows no ancestors for either Friedrich I or Dietrich, but in fact hypothesizes that they might possibly have been brothers.
C.1. Friedrich [I] "Roch" ( d. Jerusalem before 1020) m. KUNIGUNDE [Kunizza],
C.2. Dietrich d. 1010/20 or after "Wegener refers to "Fridericus comes, Dietricus comes" witnessing a charter relating to land at Weiher, near Wasserburg, dated [1010/20], suggesting that the two may have been brothers[608]." (Citing [608] Quellen bayerischen Geschichte, Neue Folge, Band 8, p. 230 n 287, cited in Wegener (1965/67), p. 148.)
C.3 Friedrich [II] (-1030 or after).
|-->C.3.1 Berthold [I] (d after 16 May 1060).
|-->C.3.2 Friedrich [III] d 30 Jun 1075)

Conclusion: I find Med Lands' presentation most convincing and have now changed my data to reflect this. GA Vaut.3,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 He was living in 1035.1

     C. Med Lands cites multiple sources and shows the following:
First of all, Med Lands says: "According to Wegener, Graf Friedrich [I] was the son of Berthold von Reisensburg, son of Arnulf Pfalzgraf in Bavaria [Luitpoldinger][596]. He bases this on a "Berthold" witnessing several exchanges of property in the oberen Isar dated [990/99], and equating him with Berthold von Reisensburg. Several points can be made about this theory. Firstly, it seems surprising that such an illustrious connection with the Luitpoldinger Dukes of Bavaria would not have been mentioned by the various contemporary sources which relate the early history of the Grafen von Diessen. Secondly, the estimated birth date of Berthold von Reisensburg is restricted to the limited period [929/31], bearing in mind the known dates of his own career and the likely birth date of his father. His last known mention is dated 976. Another burst of activity fourteen years after that date would be surprising when he would then have been in his sixties. Thirdly, judging from the 976 entry, Berthold von Reisensburg appears to have fallen into disgrace with Emperor Otto II. There is no record of his return to favour. It is likely therefore that he died soon after and that his descendants (if any) fell into obscurity. Fourthly, it is surprising that Berthold von Reisensburg would not have been described as comes even in entries relating to the period after his disgrace as he would presumably have continued to claim and use the title."

Med Lands thus severs the links between the A.1 and A.1.1 (Genealogics line above) and that between B.1 and both B.1.1 and B.1.2 (Genealogy.EU line above). Med Links shows no ancestors for either Friedrich I or Dietrich, but in fact hypothesizes that they might possibly have been brothers.

C.2. Dietrich d. 1010/20 or after "Wegener refers to "Fridericus comes, Dietricus comes" witnessing a charter relating to land at Weiher, near Wasserburg, dated [1010/20], suggesting that the two may have been brothers[608]." (Citing [608] Quellen bayerischen Geschichte, Neue Folge, Band 8, p. 230 n 287, cited in Wegener (1965/67), p. 148.)

Conclusion: I find Med Lands' presentation most convincing and have now changed my data to reflect this. GA Vaut.3,6,7,8,5,9,10,11
; Med Lands hypopthesizes that Friedrich I and Dietrich might have been brothers, by and un-named father: "Wegener refers to "Fridericus comes, Dietricus comes" witnessing a charter relating to land at Weiher, near Wasserburg, dated [1010/20], suggesting that the two may have been brothers[608]."

     Sir Alexander de Abernethy of that Ilk married Lady Margaret? de Menteith, daughter of Alexander Fitz Walter 6th Earl of Menteith and Matilda/Maud (?) of Strathearn,
; Per Ravilious: In December 2003, I had conjectured that the wife of Sir Alexander de Abernethy (d. ca. 1316) was an otherwise unidentified daughter of Alexander, Earl of Menteith (d. ca. 1306) [1]. This was based largely on the evidence of various 14th century dispensations.

In speaking with Andrew B. W. MacEwen this evening, he has advised me that he has found conclusive evidence that the lady in question was in fact a daughter of Earl Alexander of Menteith. He further stated that her identification as ' Lady Margaret de Abrenythy ', a lady of the court of Queen Isabella of England in 1311/1312 [2], is important, and most likely correct.

The evidence Andrew mentioned will be cited in a forthcoming article, and cannot be divulged at this time for that reason. However, he did extend permission to mention the existence of this evidence to the newsgroup so that this identification can be noted as correct.

A brief ahnentafel of the ancestry of Mary de Abernethy, one of the daughters and coheirs of Sir Alexander, will be provided in a followup post.

     "SIEGHARD [I], son of --- (-861 or after). A charter dated 5 Jan 848 records an exchange of property "in pago Chochinguue et in Mulehgouue" between Hatto Abbot of Fulda and "Sigehardus comes", subscribed by "Gerharti comitis, Sigifridi comitis"[676]. Ludwig II "der Deutsche" King of the East Franks donated property which "comes Sigihardus comes in villa Heitungesfelden in beneficium nobis habuit" to Kloster Fulda by charter dated 12 Feb [849?][677]. The geographical distance of Fulda from Kraichgau suggests that these two documents may not refer to the same person as the other diplomas cited below. Graf im Kraichgau 858: King Ludwig II "der Deutsche" granted property "in pago Lobodengouue in comitatu Werinherii in villa…Walestat" to Tuto in exchange for property "in comitatu Sighardi in pago…Creichgouue in villa Vhratesheim" by charter dated 7 Dec 858[678]. An agreement between Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks and his brother King Ludwig II dated Jun 860 names "nobilis ac fidelibus laicis…Chuonradus, Evrardus, Adalardus, Arnustus, Warnarius, Liutfridus, Hruodolfus, Erkingarius, Gislebertus, Ratbodus, Arnulfus, Hugo, item Chuonradus, Liutharius, Berengarius, Matfridus, Boso, Sigeri, Hartmannus, Liuthardus, Richuinus, Wigricus, Hunfridus, Bernoldus, Hatto, Adalbertus, Burchardus, Christianus, Leutulfus, Hessi, Herimannus, item Hruodulfus, Sigehardus"[679].
     "m [---, sister of LIUTSWINDIS, daughter of ---. This possible marriage is shown to explain why Sieghard's son, Sieghard, is referred to consistently in primary sources as consanguineus of Emperor Arnulf I, on the basis that the most likely connection is through the family of the emperor's mother Liutswindis.]"
