     "EUSTACHE [II] "Gernobadatus" de Boulogne, son of EUSTACHE [I] Comte de Boulogne & his wife Mathilde de Louvain ([1015/20]-[soon after 1070/1087]). The Genealogica comitum Buloniensium records that "Eustachium et Lantbertum" were sons of "comes Eustachius de Bolonia" and his wife Mathilde[457]. His birth date range is estimated from the date of his first marriage, and bearing in mind the estimated birth date range of his mother. He succeeded his father in [1049] as Comte de Boulogne. Simeon of Durham records that "Eustace the elder earl of Boulogne who had married king Eadward's sister Goda" landed at Dover in Sep 1051[458]. When returning from visiting Edward "the Confessor" King of England in 1051, he was involved in an affray at Canterbury during which one of his men was killed. The refusal of Godwin Earl of Wessex to punish the offenders led to the Earl's temporary banishment from England[459]. Comte de Lens 1054. "Eustatii comitis" witnessed a charter of "Balduinus Flandrensium comes" dated 6 Jan 1056[460]. Orderic Vitalis records that “Eustachium comitem” was seriously wounded during the battle of Hastings but escaped “quasi moribundus”[461]. He was awarded a large fief "the honour of Boulogne"[462], but soon quarrelled with William I King of England. He launched an attack on England in 1067, but withdrew after landing. His English lands were confiscated, but later restored. Boulogne's strategic importance grew as it became the main port for importing English wool for the Flemish cloth trade.
     "m firstly ([1036]) as her second husband, GODGIFU [Goda] of England, widow of DREUX [Drogo] Comte de Mantes et du Vexin, daughter of ÆTHELRED II King of England & his second wife Emma de Normandie (-before 1049). Her parentage is recorded by Orderic Vitalis, who says that she went into exile in Normandy with her brother[463], which can be dated from other sources to 1013. Her first marriage was arranged by Robert II Duke of Normandy[464], indicating that she probably did not return to England. Her second marriage is referred to by Florence of Worcester[465]. Simeon of Durham records that "Eustace the elder earl of Boulogne who had married king Eadward's sister Goda" landed at Dover in Sep 1051[466].
     "m secondly IDA of Lotharingia, daughter of GODEFROI Duke of Upper Lorraine Comte de Verdun & his first wife Doda [de Rethel] ([1038/43][467]-13 Aug 1113). Her marriage is recorded by Orderic Vitalis, who specifies that she was the sister of "Godfrey Duke of Lotharingia" and names her three sons[468]. The Vita B. Idæ Boloniensis Comitissæ records that she was the daughter of "pater…Godefridus, mater…Doda"[469]. She made a donation to Saint-Bertin for the soul of "Eustachii domini mei comitis" with her sons "Godefridi et Balduini"[470].

     “Ida was born about 1040, the daughter of Geoffroy 'with the Beard', count of Verdun, duke of Upper-Lorraine, and his wife Uda. In 1057 she married Eustace II, comte de Boulogne, son of Eustace I, comte de Boulogne, and Mathilde de Louvain. Of their three sons only Eustace III would have progeny.
     “Ida chose not to use a wet-nurse in raising her sons, opting to breast-feed them, according to one source, to ensure that they were not contaminated by the wet-nurse's morals. When her sons took part in the First Crusade, Ida contributed heavily to their expenses.
     “Ida was always religiously and charitably active, but the death of her husband provided her with wealth and the freedom to use it for her projects. She founded the monasteries of Saint-Wulmer in Boulogne-sur-Mer, Our Lady of the Chapel in Calais, Saint-Bertin, Cappelle and Le Wast. She maintained a correspondence with Anselm of Canterbury. Some of Anselm's letters to Ida have survived.
     “Though Ida became increasingly involved in church life, current scholars consider that she did not become a Benedictine nun, but that she was a secular oblate of that order.
     “She died on 13 April 1113. Traditionally, her burial place has been ascribed to the Abbey of Saint Vaast. Her remains were moved in 1669 to Paris and again in 1808 to Bayeux. Her life story was written by a contemporary monk of the Saint Vaast Abbey. She is venerated in Bayeux.”. GAV-26.

; Per Genealogics:
     “Europaische Stammtafeln indicates that the parents of Eustace were Baudouin II, comte de Boulogne, and his wife Adeline/Adeliva. However other sources indicate that his family background is unknown. In the _Genealogica comitum Buloniensium_ of the late 11th century, the earliest known genealogy of the counts of Boulogne, Eustace is listed in the first line of the house of Boulogne. However this source is silent as to his descent. In the _History of the Counts of Guines and Lords of Ardres_ by the chronicler Lambert d'Ardres (1160-1227), a _Bolonie comitem Erniculum_ ...is given as father of one Eustace. How this genealogical information relates to Eustace I cannot be resolved.
     “Eustace was married to Mathilde de Louvain, daughter of Lambert I, comte de Louvain, and Gerberga of Lower-Lorraine. Their sons Eustace II, Godefroy and Lambert, and daughter Gerberge would have progeny.
     “Eustace died about 1049, and was buried in Samer, Boulogne.”.¹¹ Eustache I «A l’oeil» (?) Comte de Boulogne was also known as Eustache 1er «A l’oeil» (?) comte de Boulogne.⁵ Eustache I «A l’oeil» (?) Comte de Boulogne was also known as Eustace I (?) Count of Boulogne.⁸

     "Sofie of Lorraine, the daughter of Friedrich II, duke of Upper-Lorraine, who had inherited the counties of Bar and Montbéliard, and her husband Graf Ludwig von Mousson, Castellanus in Mömpelgard, Altkirch und Pfirt, contesting Thierry's succession. In order to receive the support of his brother Gerhard, Thierry gave him the county of Vaudémont and convened an assembly of nobles who elected Thierry duke over Ludwig. After Ludwig's death between 1073 and 1076, his son Thierry I (Dietrich), comte de Bar-le-Duc, again claimed the succession to Lorraine. However, Emperor Heinrich IV confirmed Thierry in the duchy. Probably for this reason, Thierry remained faithful to the emperor throughout his rule. He fought the Saxons while they were at war with the emperor between 1070 and 1078, and he opposed the popes Gregory VII and Urban II when they were in conflict with the emperor.
     "In 1095 Thierry planned to go on the First Crusade, but he was prevented by ill health, though he persuaded his barons to go. Thereafter he took little part in imperial affairs, preferring not to intervene between Heinrich IV and his son Heinrich (the future Emperor Heinrich V), or against Lothar von Supplinburg, Herzog von Sachsen.
     "About 1079 Thierry married Hedwig, Gräfin von Formbach, widow of Gebhard, Graf von Supplinburg, with whom she had the future emperor Lothar von Supplinburg, Herzog von Sachsen. Hedwig was the daughter of Friedrich, Graf von Formbach, and Gertrud von Haldensleben. Thierry and Hedwig had a son Simon I and daughter Geertruid/Petronella who would have progeny.
     "About 1095 Thierry married Gertrud van Vlaanderen, daughter of Robert I 'the Friesian', Graaf van Vlaanderen, and Gertrud von Sachsen. They had five children of whom only Thierry II would have progeny.
     "Thierry died on 1 May 1115." [See Note Per Med Lands]²

     "Gerhard was the younger son of Gerhard de Bouzonville, Graf von Metz, and Gisela, who may have been a daughter of Thierry I, duke of Upper Lorraine. He was the count of Metz and Chatenois from 1047, when his older brother Adalbert resigned these counties to him on becoming duke of Lorraine. On Adalbert's death the next year, Gerhard became duke and was so until his death. In contemporary documents he is called Gerhard of Alsace (after the familial homeland), Gerhard of Chatenoy (after an ancestral castle near Neufchâteau), or Gerhard of Flanders (after his wife's homeland). He and his wife Hadwide, daughter of Albert I, comte de Namur, and Ermengarde/Aleide de Lorraine, had four children of whom two sons, Thierry II and Gerhard, would have progeny.
     "Emperor Heinrich III invested Adalbert with Lorraine in 1047 after confiscating it from Geoffroy 'with the Beard'. Geoffroy did not back down, however, and killed Adalbert in battle. Heinrich then bestowed the dukedom on Gerhard, but the deposed duke continued to stir. Geoffroy had the support of a faction of the nobility who did not want a strong hand at the ducal helm, and Gerhard was imprisoned. However he had the support of the most important bishop, Bruno von Egisheim-Dagsburg, bishop of Toul (later Pope Leo IX), who procured his liberation in 1049. The emperor gave him troops to assist him in his fight, for the rebels had the support of some elements in the Church. Gerhard himself remained, as his brother had, faithful to the end to the imperial dynasty, and his descendants would remain so as well, even into the Hohenstaufen years.
     "Gerhard's alliance with the Church was regular but inconstant, though he endowed the abbeys of Mourmoutiers, Saint-Michel and Remiremont. Mourmoutiers was the abbey of Cardinal Humbert of Silva Candida, who excommunicated the patriarch of Constantinople, Michael I Cerularius, in 1054, precipitating the Great Schism, and Remiremont was Gerhard's own final resting place.
     "In June 1053 Gerhard and Prince Rudolf of Benevento led papal and Swabian troops into battle on behalf of Leo IX. The Battle of Civitate on 10 June 1053 was a disastrous loss for the pope. His enemies, the Normans under Humphrey de Hauteville and Richard of Aversa, defeated his allies and captured Leo, keeping him in honourable captivity at Benevento, Gerhard, however returned to Lorraine.
     "Among his construction projects was the castle of Prény in the centre of the duchy, and the beginnings of the capital city Nancy. Gerhard died (possibly poisoned) at Remiremont about 14 April 1070, while trying to end a revolt. He was succeeded by his son Thierry II. Gerhard was the progenitor of the line of dukes who ruled Lorraine until 1755."

     "Gérard de Lorraine ou Gérard d'Alsace1, né vers 1030, mort le 11 août 1070 à Remiremont, fut seigneur de Châtenois, puis duc de Lorraine de 1048 à 1070. Les textes de l'époque le désignent également sous les noms de Gérard de Chatenoy - en référence à son titre de seigneur (ou comte) de Châtenois et du château qu'il y possédait - ou Gérard de Flandre - son épouse, Hedwige de Namur, étant aussi nommée Hedwige de Flandre.
     "Son père est Gérard IV de Metz († 1045), fils d'Adalbert II de Metz et de Judith von Öhningen, comte de Metz, et selon une charte de 1038 de l'abbaye de Remiremont, comte d'Alsace2. Sa mère est Gisèle de Franconie, qui est probablement la fille de Conrad le Vieux, duc de Franconie et margrave de Vérone, et de Mathilde de Souabe3.
Histoire
     "Adalbert d'Alsace, son frère aîné, devenu comte de Metz à la mort de son père, fut investi du duché de Haute-Lotharingie au début de 1047 par l'empereur Henri III, qui venait de le confisquer à Godefroy II. Celui-ci ne s'avoua pas vaincu et tua Adalbert dans une bataille près de Thuin, le 11 novembre 1048. Henri III donna alors le duché à son frère, Gérard d'Alsace, devenu également à son tour comte de Metz.
     "Godefroy II continua la lutte, aidé par des seigneurs lorrains qui s'inquiétaient de la puissance territoriale du nouveau duc, et fit rapidement prisonnier Gérard. Mais Gérard était soutenu par Bruno (un ancien évêque de Toul élu pape sous le nom de Léon IX), qui, en voyage en Lorraine, obtint la libération de Gérard en 1049. De plus l'empereur le soutint et lui fournit des troupes qui lui permirent de vaincre ses adversaires. Toutefois la noblesse lorraine continua à plusieurs reprises à créer des troubles contre le duc, soutenue par le clergé.
     "Tout son règne fut marqué par la fidélité aux empereurs Henri III, puis Henri IV, et par une collaboration régulière avec l'Église. Il fut avoué de l'Abbaye de Moyenmoutier, de l'abbaye de Saint-Mihiel et de l'Abbaye de Remiremont.
     "Il fit construire le château de Prény, ainsi qu'une petite cité en position centrale du duché sur un lieu nommé Nancy. Cette cité se développa et devint la capitale du duché.
     "Il résidait habituellement au château fortifié de Châtenois, château dont les fortifications seront détruites par Condé en 16344. Parmi ses biens, certains font partie du patrimoine foncier de l'abbaye de Saint-Denis, notamment au Stoufin, futur Haut-Koenigsbourg5.
     "Gérard de Lorraine mourut à Remiremont alors qu'il s'apprêtait à mater une révolte des nobles lorrains, et un empoisonnement n'est pas à exclure6. Il fut enterré dans l'abbaye de Remiremont. Des fouilles eurent lieu au xixe siècle dans la crypte pour retrouver son tombeau mais, les sépultures trouvées étant anépigraphes, elles restèrent vaines.
Descendance
     "Il avait épousé Hadwide de Namur7, fille d'Albert Ier, comte de Namur, et d'Ermengarde de Basse-Lotharingie. Ce mariage le rapprocha de la noblesse lorraine (voir l'ascendance de son fils). Ils eurent pour enfants :
Représentations
     "Il n'existe à l'heure actuelle aucune représentation contemporaine du duc Gérard Ier de Lorraine. Son sceau n'est pas connu et les monnaies qu'il a frappées ne portent pas son effigie. De plus, l'origine mythique des ducs de Lorraine, faisant de Thierry II le fils de Guillaume de Lorraine (frère fictif de Godefroy de Bouillon) a souvent primé. Pour cette raison, Gérard de Lorraine n'a pas été représenté dans les suites généalogiques des xvie et xviie siècles.
     "Aussi, lorsqu'au xviiie siècle, Ferdinand de Saint-Urbain réalisa la médaille qui se rapporte à lui pour son Médaillier de Lorraine, il ne put se servir ni de portraits d'époques, ni de représentations postérieures. À défaut, il fit un portrait de fantaisie s'inspirant des traits de caractères mentionnés par le chroniqueur Jean de Bayon8. En raison de son statut de fondateur de la Maison de Lorraine, le duc fut coiffé d'une couronne de laurier et vêtu à la manière romaine. Cette création de Ferdinand de Saint-Urbain constitua dès lors le portrait canonique de Gérard de Lorraine. Il fut repris par le graveur Carlo Faucci, par le peintre de la Glorification de la Maison de Lorraine ou par les restaurateurs de la Chapelle Ronde de Nancy lorsqu'ils la décorèrent de médaillons à l'effigie des ducs.
     "À partir de la seconde moitié du xixe siècle, les représentations de Gérard de Lorraine s'éloignèrent du portrait romanisant de Ferdinand de Saint-Urbain. Dans son recueil de portraits paru en 1854, Jean Cayon le représente en guerrier vêtu à la manière de princes contemporains9. Plus tard, en 1926, le prince d'Hénin-Liétard offrit au prieuré de Châtenois un vitrail commémorant sa fondation par les premiers ducs de Lorraine. Le peintre Pierre-Dié Mallet y représenta Gérard de Lorraine, ainsi que son épouse et son fils, agenouillés devant Saint Pierre, patron du lieu. Le fondateur de la dynastie y est vêtu du riche manteau ducal tandis que sa couronne repose sur un coussin.

     "Gerard (c.?1030 – 14 April 1070), also known as Gerard the Great, was a Lotharingian nobleman. He was the count of Metz and Châtenois from 1047 to 1048, when his brother Duke Adalbert resigned them to him upon his becoming the Duke of Upper Lorraine. On Adalbert's death the next year, Gérard became duke, a position that he held until his death. In contemporary documents, he is called Gérard of Alsace (after the fact that he had some land in Alsace), Gérard of Chatenoy (after an ancestral castle near Neufchâteau), or Gérard of Flanders (after his wife's homeland).[1]
     "He was the second son of Gérard de Bouzonville, count of Metz, and Gisela who was possibly a daughter of Theodoric I, Duke of Upper Lorraine. Henry III, Holy Roman Emperor, invested Adalbert with Lorraine in 1047 after confiscating it from Godfrey III. Godfrey did not back down, however, and killed Adalbert in battle. Henry subsequently bestowed it on Gérard, but the deposed duke continued to stir. Godfrey had the support of a faction of the nobles who did not want a strong hand at the ducal helm and Gérard was imprisoned. Gérard, however, had the support of the chiefest of his bishops, that of Toul, Bruno of Eguisheim-Dagsburg (later the sainted Pope Leo IX), who procured his liberation in 1049. The emperor gave him troops to assist him in his fight, for the rebels had the support of some elements in the church. Gérard himself remained, as his brother had, faithful to the end to the imperial dynasty and his descendants would remain so as well even into the Hohenstaufen years.
     "His alliance with the church was regular but inconstant and he afforded his protection to Moyenmoutier Abbey, Saint-Mihiel Abbey, and Remiremont Abbey. The former was the abbey of Cardinal Humbert of Silva Candida, who excommunicated the patriarch of Constantinople, Michael I Cerularius, in 1054, thus precipitating the Great Schism, and the latter was his own final resting place.
     "On 18 June 1053, Gérard and Prince Rudolf of Benevento led papal and Swabian troops into battle on behalf of Pope Leo. This was the Battle of Civitate and it was a disastrous loss for the pope. His enemy, the Normans, under Humphrey of Hauteville and Richard of Aversa, defeated his allies and captured his person, taking him prisoner in Benevento. Gerard, however, returned to Lorraine.
     "Among his other construction projects, was that of the castle of Prény, in the centre of the duchy, the beginnings of the capital city, Nancy. He died at Remiremont while trying to kill a revolt. Poisoning was suspected. The date of his death is either 14 April or 11 August.
     "He was married to Hedwige of Namur (or of Flanders), daughter of Albert II, Count of Namur, and Regelindis of Lower-Lorraine, daughter of Gothelo I, Duke of Lorraine. This marriage helped patch up relations with the baronage. They had the following issue:
** Theodoric II, Duke of Lorraine (c.1055-1115), successor in Lorraine
** Gerard (1057–1108), count of Vaudémont
** Beatrice, married Stephen I, Count of Burgundy, Mâcon, and Vienne
** Gisela, abbess of Remiremont
     "He was the patrilineal ancestor of the line of dukes which ruled Lorraine until 1737 and of the Habsburg-Lorraine dynasty that ruled Tuscany (1737–1859), the Holy Roman Empire (1745–1807), Austria-Hungary (1780–1918), the Duchy of Parma (1814–1847), Duchy of Modena (1815–1859), and Mexico (1864–1867).

     "CONRAD, son of GISELBERT Graf von Salm [Luxembourg] & his wife --- (-in Palestine 8 Aug 1086, bur [1090 Luxembourg Münster Abbey]). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "comitis Conradis" as son of "Gislebertus comes de Luscelenburch"[158]. Vogt of St Maximin at Trier and of Stablo. He succeeded his father in [1056/59] as Comte [de Luxembourg]. He captured Eberhard Archbishop of Trier, for which he was excommunicated[159]. "Conradus comes" founded the Benedictine abbey of Münster [Altmünster] in Luxembourg, with the consent of "uxore mea Clementia cum filiis et filiabus nostris", by charter dated 7 Jul 1083[160]. He died while on the pilgrimage which had been required before his excommunication could be lifted[161]. He is referred to as "Comes de Luccilinburg" on the seals of Münster abbey, the first of his family to which this title was ascribed[162]. The Chronicon of Bernold records the death in 1086 of "Chonradus comes, frater Heremanni regis" while on pilgrimage to Jerusalem[163]. His tomb at Münster records the death of “comes Conradus...peregrinus sepultus in terra decenter non sua...VI Id Aug” 1086, the return of his body four years later, and its burial in the presence of “conjuge sua Clementia, per manum Adalberonis primicerii Metensis, Henrici comitis, Conrardique comitis...Rodolpho abbate filio comitis”[164].
     "There is considerable confusion regarding the wife or wives of Comte Conrad. It is likely that Comte Conrad married twice. Alternatively, he may have had a single wife to whom all the references below refer, although if this was correct she would have had a considerable lifespan considering that Conrad´s grandson by his daughter Mathilde is named in 1087 (see below):
     "[m --- de Poitou, daughter of --- [Duke of Aquitaine, Comte de Poitou] & his wife ---. Her marriage and family origin are confirmed by the charter dated 1088 under which "Regina ex prosapia non obscura…comitis Cononis filia qui frater extit Conraldi viri…in itinere Jerosolimitano defuncti, generi nimirum comitis Pictaviensis" donated property to the abbey of Marcigny-sur-Loire for the foundation of the priory of Aiwaille[165]. Fabri identifies "Conradi" as Conrad Comte de Luxembourg, suggesting that "frater" should be interpreted to indicate brother-in-law, the text indicating that Conrad was son-in-law of "comitis Pictaviensis"[166]. If this alleged Poitou origin of the wife of Comte Conrad is correct, the problem is identifying her father. There are few data points to establish the chronology of the family of the comtes de Luxembourg, but it appears likely that Comte Conrad would have been born in [1030/40]. If this is correct, his Poitou wife would most likely have been a granddaughter of Guillaume V "le Grand" Duke of Aquitaine [Guillaume III Comte de Poitou]. Secondary sources have suggested that she was the daughter of Duke Guillaume V´s son, Guillaume VII "Acerrimus/l'Aigret" Duke of Aquitaine [Guillaume V Comte de Poitou]. The thrust of the argument from which this conclusion is drawn is an explanation for the transmission of Longwy to the Luxembourg family: Alberic de Trois Fontaines names the wife of Comte Conrad "comitissa de Longui et de Castris Ermensendis"[167], and Comte Conrad´s daughter of the same name is later recorded as holding Longwy. As the family origin of the wives of the other dukes of Aquitaine/comtes de Poitou is known, the argument proceeds on the assumption that Duke Guillaume VII´s wife Ermesinde is the only possible source from whom Longwy could have been inherited. There are several difficulties with this argument. Firstly, the word "gener", used in the 1088 charter, may have been used in a wider sense in the same way as "frater": for example, cases have been observed in other primary sources where "gener" indicates brother-in-law. Secondly, it is far from certain that the passage in Alberic is factually correct: as noted below, difficulties are suggested by the reference to "Castris", which normally indicates the county of Bliescastel which has not been connected to the wife of Comte Conrad. Thirdly, there is considerable uncertainty over the ownership of Longwy after the death of Comte Manegold in [1040] (see the document UPPER LOTHARINGIA NOBILITY). Fourthly, the mother of Comte Conrad´s daughter Ermensende (who later held Longwy) is confirmed in another charter (see below) as Conrad´s known wife Clémence, although it is of course possible that Alberic simply mistook the name and that Clémence was the heiress of Longwy. In conclusion, there are too many variables in this situation to conclude that the wife of Comte Conrad was the daughter of Guillaume VII Duke of Aquitaine.]
     "[m [firstly] ERMENSENDE [Ctss de Longwy], daughter of ---. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "comitissa de Longui et de Castris Ermensendis" as wife of "Conrado comiti de Luscelenburch"[168]. "Castris" is normally the Latin name used for Bliescastel (see the document UPPER LOTHARINGIA NOBILITY). No connection has been identified between Ermensende’s ancestors and the family of the Grafen von Bliescastel, although her daughter’s husband was Graf von Bliescastel: maybe Ermensende was the heiress of Bliescastel which she passed to her daughter. Concerning Longwy, according to the Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium, it was held in the 1140s by Adalbert [Graf von Metz] Duke of Upper Lotharingia: the Gesta names "Albertum de Longui castro, quem…ducem", the text appearing to refer to the duke of Upper Lotharingia who was killed in 1148[169]. If this is correct, it is possible that the wife of Comte Conrad was Ermensende, daughter of Adalbert Duke of Lower Lotharingia. However, no other record has been found of Longwy being in the possession of the family of the Grafen von Metz. Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that the Gesta incorrectly attributes Longwy to Duke Adalbert, confusing him with Albert [II] Graf von Dagsburg, first husband of Ermensende de Luxembourg, daughter of Comte Conrad, who is later recorded as heiress of Longwy[170]. No other indication has been found of the ownership of Longwy during the period [1140/60]. This proposed parentage of the wife of Comte Conrad should be considered as highly speculative. Another possibility is that Alberic misquoted the name of the countess and that Ermensende was an error for Clémence.]
     "m [secondly] (before 1080) [as her first husband,] CLEMENTIA, daughter of --- (-after 1141). Her [first] marriage is confirmed by the charter dated 7 Jul 1083 under which "Conradus comes" founded the Benedictine abbey of Münster [Altmünster] in Luxembourg, with the consent of "uxore mea Clementia cum filiis et filiabus nostris"[171]. "Conradus cum uxore mea Clementia" founded the abbey of Münster at Luxembourg, with the consent of "filiis meis Henrico, Conradi et Wilhelmo", by charter dated 1080[172]. The tomb of her husband at Münster records the death of “comes Conradus...peregrinus sepultus in terra decenter non sua...VI Id Aug” 1086, the return of his body four years later, and its burial in the presence of “conjuge sua Clementia, per manum Adalberonis primicerii Metensis, Henrici comitis, Conrardique comitis...Rodolpho abbate filio comitis”[173]. Meginher Archbishop of Trier confirmed the foundation of Kloster Schiffenberg by "Clementia…comitissa" with the consent of "filii sui Willehelmi et filie Irmesindis" by charter dated 17 Jun 1129[174]. It is possible that Clémence married [secondly/thirdly] [as his second wife,] Gerhard [I] Graaf van Gelre. Her supposed [second/third] marriage is confirmed by a second version of the charter confirming the foundation of Kloster Schiffenberg, dated 1129, which records the donation made by "Clementia comitissa de Glizberc…per manum Gerhardi mariti sui comitis de Gelre", with the consent of "palatine comitisse Gertrudis" (identified as Gertrud von Northeim, widow of Siegfried Graf von Orlamünde, Pfalzgrafen von Lothringen, and wife of Otto von Salm Graf von Rheineck) to whom one fourth part of the property belonged[175]. Szabolcs de Vajay dismisses this supposed [second/third] marriage, considering that this second Schiffenberg document is a falsification[176]. However, the language of the document is not obviously anachronistic, the only surprising element being the large number of witnesses. The doubts surrounding the authenticity of these documents is discussed at length by Wyss[177]. "Clementia comitissa de Glizberg cum meis nepotibus Ottone et Wilhelmo" confirmed the foundation of Schiffenberg, with the consent of "domne Gertrudis palatine…[et] Adela filia eiusdem palatine", by charter dated 1141[178]. A highly speculative [second] marriage to --- Graf von Gleiberg is also suggested by the documents relating to Clementia´s supposed [second/third] marriage, because of the two references to her as “comitissa de Glizberc”. No primary source document has yet been identified in which Clementia´s [first] husband is described as “Graf von Gleiberg”. Nor has any record been found of the county of Gleiberg being held by her son by this [first] marriage, Guillaume [I] Comte de Luxembourg, nor by Guillaume´s son Conrad [II] Comte de Luxembourg. One possible explanation is that Clementia was not in fact heiress of Gleiberg, although she is often described as such in contemporary secondary sources, and that she was accorded the title in the 1129 and 1141 as the widow of an otherwise unidentified “Graf von Gleiberg” whom she married after the death of Conrad [I] Comte de Luxembourg. If that is correct, this shadowy [second] husband may have been the uncle or great-uncle of the cousins Otto and Wilhelm who are named above and who would have inherited the title after his death. If Clementia was dowager countess of Gleiberg, maybe continuing to hold part of the county as dower from her [second] husband, this would explain the necessity of her acting jointly with her nephews in the 1129 and 1141 documents."

Her supposed [second/third] marriage is confirmed by a second version of the charter confirming the foundation of Kloster Schiffenberg, dated 1129, which records the donation made by "Clementia comitissa de Glizberc…per manum Gerhardi mariti sui comitis de Gelre", with the consent of "palatine comitisse Gertrudis" [identified as Gertrud von Northeim, widow of Siegfried Graf von Orlamünde, Pfalzgrafen von Lothringen, and wife of Otto von Salm Graf von Rheineck, presumably a relative whose family relationship has not been traced, although see below for some speculation about this] to whom one fourth part of the property belonged[117]. Szabolcs de Vajay dismisses this supposed [second/third] marriage, considering that this second Schiffenberg document is a falsification[118]. However, the language of the document is not obviously anachronistic, the only surprising element being the large number of witnesses. The doubts surrounding the authenticity of these documents is discussed at length by Wyss[119]. "Clementia comitissa de Glizberg cum meis nepotibus Ottone et Wilhelmo" confirmed the foundation of Schiffenberg, with the consent of "domne Gertrudis palatine…[et] Adela filia eiusdem palatine", by charter dated 1141[120]. The documents relating to Clementia´s supposed [second/third] marriage also suggest a possible [second] marriage, because of the two references to her as “comitissa de Glizberc”. No primary source document has yet been identified in which Clementia´s [first] husband is described as “Graf von Gleiberg”. Nor has any record been found of the county of Gleiberg being held by her son by this [first] marriage, Guillaume [I] Comte de Luxembourg, nor by Guillaume´s son Conrad [II] Comte de Luxembourg. One possible explanation is that Clementia was not in fact heiress of Gleiberg, although she is often described as such in contemporary secondary sources, and that she was accorded the title in the 1129 and 1141 as the widow of an otherwise unidentified “Graf von Gleiberg” whom she married after the death of Conrad [I] Comte de Luxembourg. If that is correct, this shadowy [second] husband may have been the uncle or great-uncle of the cousins Otto and Wilhelm who are named above and who would have inherited the title after his death. If Clementia was dowager countess of Gleiberg, maybe continuing to hold part of the county as dower from her [second] husband, this would explain the necessity of her acting jointly with her nephews in the 1129 and 1141 documents. If all this speculation is correct, the consent given in the joint interest in the property in question held by Gertrud von Northeim and her daughter may provide an indication of the family origin of Clementia herself: maybe she was Gertrud´s maternal aunt, a member of the Braunschweig family?

     "[ERMENSENDE [de Longwy], daughter of --- . [Ctss de Longwy.] The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "comitissa de Longui et de Castris Ermensendis" as wife of "Conrado comiti de Luscelenburch"[755]. Ermensende de Luxembourg, daughter of Conrad [I] Comte [de Luxembourg], was later recorded as heiress of Longwy, which suggests an element of factual accuracy in this passage of Alberic. However, there are two other difficulties with the text. Firstly, "Castris" is normally the Latin name used for Bliescastel (see above in the present document) but no connection has been identified between Ermensende’s ancestors and the family of the Grafen von Bliescastel, although her daughter’s husband was Graf von Bliescastel: maybe Ermensende was the heiress of Bliescastel which she passed to her daughter. Secondly, considerable confusion concerning the identity of the wife or wives of Comte Conrad is introduced by other primary sources, which on the one hand indicate that she was related to the family of the Dukes of Aquitaine/Comtes de Poitou, and on the other record that her name was Clémence (who in addition is named in a charter as the mother of Comte Conrad´s daughter Ermensende). The possible identities of the wife/wives of Comte Conrad are discussed in more detail in the document LUXEMBOURG. It is of course possible that Comte Conrad married more than once. Alternatively, it is also possible that he married only once and that all the references to his wife/wives refer to the same person, although the latter proposition would suggest that Longwy somehow passed through the Aquitaine/Poitou family which has not been verified (see a fuller discussion of this point in the document AQUITAINE DUKES). Assuming that Ermensende was Ctss de Longwy, it has been suggested that she was the daughter of Adalbert [Graf von Metz] Duke of Upper Lotharingia (see above). This is based on the Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium which names "Albertum de Longui castro, quem…ducem", the text apparently referring to the duke of Upper Lotharingia who was killed in 1148[756]. As noted above, there is some doubt about the accuracy of this passage in the Gesta, and in any case no other reference has been found that Longwy ever belonged to the family of the Grafen von Metz. This proposed parentage of the wife of Comte Conrad should therefore be considered as highly speculative.

     “Bernhard was born about 995, the son of Bernhard I, Herzog von Sachsen, and Hildegard von Stade. He was duke of Saxony from 1011 to his death, the third of the Billung dynasty. He had the rights of a count in Friesia.

In 1019-1020 he revolted and gained the recognition of the tribal laws of Saxony, something his father had failed to do. He returned then to war with the Slavs and drew them into his sphere of power and influence through their leader Godescalc (Gottschalk).
     “He supported Emperor Conrad II in 1024 and his son Heinrich III, though he began to fear the latter for his closeness to Archbishop Adalbert of Bremen (c.1000-1072), an enemy of a succession of dukes of Saxony.

; Per Genealogics:
     “Berengar I was the margrave of Friuli from 874 until no earlier than 890 and no later than 896, king of Italy (as Berengar I) from 887 (with interruption) until his death, and Holy Roman Emperor from 915 until his death. His family were called the Unruochings after his grandfather Unruoch, count of Ternois.
     “He was born between 840 and 845, probably at Cividale del Friuli in north-eastern Italy, the son of Eberhard I, margrave of Friuli, and Gisla de France, daughter of Emperor Louis I 'the Pious' and his second wife Judith. He was thus of Carolingian extraction on his mother's side. Sometime during his margraviate, he married Bertila of Spoleto, daughter of Suppo II, duke of Spoleto, count of Camerino, thus securing an alliance with the powerful Supponid family. She would later rule alongside him as a _consors,_ a title specifically denoting her informal power and influence, as opposed to a mere _coniunx_ (wife). Their daughter Gisela would have progeny.
     “Berengar rose to become one of the most influential laymen in the empire of Charles VI 'the Fat' before he was elected to replace Charles in Italy after the latter's deposition. His long reign of 36 years saw him opposed by no less than seven other claimants to the Italian throne. Though he is sometimes seen as a 'national' king in Italian histories, he was in fact of Frankish birth. His reign is usually characterised as 'troubled' because of the many competitors for the crown and because of the arrival of Magyar raiders in Western Europe. He was the last emperor before Otto I 'the Great' was crowned in 962, after a 38-year interregnum.
     “When his older brother Unruoch III died in 874, Berengar succeeded him in the march of Friuli. With this he obtained a key position in the Carolingian empire, as the march bordered the Croats and other Slavs who were a constant threat to the Italian peninsula. He was a territorial magnate with lordships over several counties in north-eastern Italy. He was an important channel for the men of Friuli to get access to the emperor and for the emperor to exercise authority in Friuli. He even had a large degree of influence on the Church of Friuli. In 884-885 Berengar intervened with the emperor on behalf of Haimo, bishop of Belluno.
     “Emperor Ludwig II, who was also king of Italy, died in 875 after coming to terms with Ludwig II 'the German', king of the East Franks, whereby the German monarch's eldest son Karlomann would succeed in Italy. Ludwig the German's half-brother Charles 'the Bald' of West Francia invaded the peninsula and had himself crowned king and emperor. Ludwig 'the German' sent first Karl III 'the Fat', his youngest son, and then Karlomann himself, with armies containing Italian magnates led by Berengar, to possess the Italian kingdom. This was not successful until the death of Charles 'the Bald' in 877. The proximity of Berengar's march to Bavaria, which Karlomann already ruled under his father, may explain their cooperation.
     “In 883 Guido, duke of Spoleto, was accused of treason at an imperial synod held at Nonantula late in May. He returned to the duchy of Spoleto and made an alliance with the Saracens. The emperor, then Karl III 'the Fat', sent Berengar with an army to deprive him of Spoleto. Berengar was successful before an epidemic of disease, which ravaged all Italy, affecting the emperor and his entourage as well as Berengar's army, forced him to retire.
     “In 886 Liutward, bishop of Vercelli, took Berengar's sister from the nunnery of S. Salvatore at Brescia in order to marry her to a relative of his; whether or not by force or by the consent of the convent and Karl 'the Fat', her relative, is uncertain. Berengar and Liutward had a feud that year, and Berengar attacked Vercelli and plundered the bishop's goods. Berengar's actions are explicable if his sister was abducted by the bishop, but if the bishop's actions were justified, then Berengar appears as the initiator of the feud. Whatever the case, bishop and margrave were reconciled shortly before Liutward was dismissed from court in 887.
     “By his brief war with Liutward, Berengar had lost the favour of his cousin, Emperor Karl. Berengar came to the emperor's assembly at Waiblingen in early May 887. He made peace with the emperor and compensated for the actions of the previous year by dispensing substantial gifts. In June or July Berengar was again at the emperor's side at Kirchen, when Louis of Provence (the later Louis III, king of Lower-Bourgogne and Italy) was adopted as the emperor's son. It is sometimes alleged that Berengar was pining to be declared Karl's heir and that he may in fact have been so named in Italy, where he was acclaimed (or made himself) king immediately after Karl's deposition by the nobles of East Francia in November 887. On the other hand, his presence may merely have been necessary to confirm Karl's illegitimate son Bernhard as his heir, a plan which failed when the pope refused to attend, and then to confirm Louis instead.
     “Berengar was the only one of the _reguli_ (petty kings) to appear in the aftermath of Karl's deposition other than Arnulf von Kärnten, his deposer, who was made king before the emperor's death. Charter evidence begins Berengar's reign at Pavia between 26 December 887 and 2 January 888, though this has been disputed. Berengar was not the undisputed leading magnate in Italy at the time, but he may have made an agreement with his former rival Guido of Spoleto whereby Guido would have West Francia and he Italy on the emperor's death. Both Guido and Berengar were related to the Carolingians in the female line. They represented different factions in Italian politics: Berengar pro-German and Guido pro-French.
     “Guido, who had failed in his bid to take the West Frankish throne, returned to Italy in the summer of 888 to gather an army from among the Spoletans and Lombards and to oppose Berengar. This he did, but the battle they fought near Brescia in the autumn was a slight victory for Berengar, though his forces were so diminished that he sued for peace nevertheless. The truce was to last until 6 January 889.
     “After the truce with Guido was signed, Arnulf von Kärnten endeavoured to invade Italy through Friuli. In order to prevent a war, Berengar sent dignitaries ahead to meet Arnulf. He himself then had a meeting, sometime between early November and Christmas, at Trent. He was allowed to keep Italy as Arnulf's vassal, but the _curtes_ of Navus and Sagus were taken from him. Arnulf allowed his army to return to Germany, but he himself celebrated Christmas in Friuli, at Karnberg.
     “Early in 889, their truce having expired, Guido defeated Berengar at the Battle of the Trebbia and made himself sole king in Italy, though Berengar maintained his authority in Friuli. Though Guido had been supported by Pope Stephen V since before the death of Charles 'the Fat', he was now abandoned by the pope, who turned to Arnulf. He, for his part, remained a staunch partisan of Berengar and had it even suggested that he was creating a Carolingian alliance between himself and Louis of Provence, Charles III of France, and Berengar against Guido and Rudolf I, king of (Upper) Bourgogne.
     “In 893 Arnulf sent his illegitimate son Zwentibold, king of Lorraine, into Italy. He met up with Berengar and together they cornered Guido at Pavia, but did not press their advantage (it is believed that Guido bribed them off). In 894 Arnulf and Berengar defeated Guido at Bergamo and took control of Pavia and Milan. Berengar was with Arnulf's army that invaded Italy in 896. However he left the army while it was sojourning in the march of Tuscany and returned to Lombardy. A rumour spread that Berengar had turned against the king and had brought Adalbert 'the Rich', margrave of Ivrea, with him. Its truth or falsehood cannot be ascertained, but Berengar was removed from Friuli and replaced by Waltfred, Berengar's former supporter and 'highest counsellor', but he soon died. The falling out between Berengar and Arnulf, who was crowned Emperor in Rome by Pope Formosus, has been likened to that between Berengar II and Otto I more than half a century later.
     “Arnulf left Italy in the charge of his young son Ratold, who soon crossed Lake Como to Germany, leaving Italy in the control of Berengar, who made a pact with Lambert, Guido's son and successor. According to the _Gesta Berengarii Imperatoris,_ the two kings met at Pavia in October and November and agreed to divide the kingdom. Berengar receiving the eastern half between the Adda and the Po, 'as if by hereditary right' according to the _Annales Fuldenses._ Bergamo was to be shared between them. This was a confirmation of the status quo of 889. It was this partitioning which caused the later chronicler Liutprand of Cremona (c.922-972) to remark that the Italians always suffered under two monarchs. As surety for the accord, Lambert pledged to marry Gisela, Berengar's daughter.
     “The peace did not last long. Berengar advanced on Pavia, but was defeated by Lambert at Borgo San Donnino and taken prisoner. Nonetheless Lambert died within days, on 15 October 898. Days later Berengar had secured Pavia and become sole ruler. It was during this period that the Magyars made their first attacks on Western Europe. They first invaded Italy in 899. This first invasion may have been unprovoked, but some historians have suspected that the Magyars were either called in by Arnulf or by Berengar himself as allies. Berengar gathered a large army to meet them and refused their request for an armistice. However his army was surprised and routed near the Brenta River in the Battle of the Brenta (24 September 899).
     “This defeat handicapped Berengar and caused the nobility to question his ability to protect Italy. As a result they supported another candidate for the throne, Louis of Provence, another maternal relative of the Carolingians. In 900 Louis marched into Italy and defeated Berengar; the following year he was crowned Emperor by Pope Benedict IV. In 902, however, Berengar struck back and defeated Louis, making him promise never to return to Italy. When he broke his oath by invading the peninsula again in 905, Berengar defeated him at Verona, captured him and ordered him to be blinded on 21 July. Louis returned to Provence and ruled for another twenty years as Louis 'the Blind'. Berengar thereby cemented his position as king and ruled undisputed, except for a brief spell, until 922. As king, Berengar made his seat at Verona, which he heavily fortified. During the years when Louis posed a threat to Berengar's kingship, his wife Bertila, who was a niece of the former empress Ingelberga, widow of Emperor Ludwig II and Louis' grandmother, played an important part in the legitimisation of Berengar's rule.
     “In 904 Bergamo was subjected to a long siege by the Magyars. After the siege Berengar granted the bishop of the city its walls and the right to rebuild them with the help of the citizens and the refugees fleeing the Magyars. The bishop attained all the rights of a count in the city.
     “In January 915 Pope John X tried to forge an alliance between Berengar and the local Italian rulers in hopes that he could face the Saracen threat in southern Italy. Berengar was unable to send troops, but after the great Battle of the Garigliano, a victory over the Saracens, John crowned Berengar as Emperor in Rome (in December 915). Berengar, however, returned swiftly to the north were Friuli was still threatened by the Magyars.
     “In his later years his wife Bertila was charged with infidelity, a charge not uncommon against wives of declining kings of that period. She was poisoned. He had remarried a lady named Anna by December 915. By then Berengar's elder daughter Bertha was abbess of San Salvatore in Brescia, where her aunt had once been a nun. In that year, the following year, and in 917, Berengar endowed her monastery with three privileges to build or man fortifications. His younger daughter Gisela had married Adalbert 'the Rich', margrave of Ivrea, about 900, but this failed to spark an alliance with the Anscarids. She was dead by 913, when Adalbert remarried. Adalbert was one of Berengar's earliest internal enemies after the defeat of Louis of Provence. He called on Hugo of Arles between 917 and 920 to take the Iron Crown. Hugo did invade Italy with his brother Boso, margrave of Tuscany, and advanced as far as Pavia, where Berengar starved him into submission but allowed him to pass out of Italy freely.
     “Dissatisfied with the emperor, who had ceased his policy of grants and family alliances in favour of paying Magyar mercenaries, several Italian nobles - led by Adalbert and many of the bishops - invited Rudolf II, king of Upper Burgundy, to take the Italian throne in 921. Moreover his own grandson, Berengar II of Ivrea, rose up against him, incited by Rudolf. Berengar retreated to Verona and had to watch sidelined as the Magyars pillaged the country. John, bishop of Pavia, surrendered his city to Rudolf in 922 and it was sacked by the Magyars in 924. On 29 July 923 the forces of Rudolf II, Adalbert and Berengar II of Ivrea met those of Berengar and defeated him in the Battle of Fiorenzuola, near Piacenza. The battle was decisive and Berengar was de facto dethroned and replaced by Rudolf. Berengar was soon after murdered at Verona by one of his own men on 7 April 924, possibly at Rudolf's instigation. He left no sons, only his remaining daughter Bertha, and an anonymous epic poem, the _Gesta Berengarii Imperatoris,_ about the many happenings of his troublesome reign.”.⁴ Berenger I (?) King of Italy, Emperor of the West, Margrave of Friuli was also known as Berengario I (?) King of Italy, Emperor of the West, Margrave of Friuli.⁷

     “Bertila was born about 860, the daughter of Suppo II, duke of Spoleto, count of Camerino.
     “About 880 she married Berengar I, margrave of Friuli, son of Eberhard I, margrave of Friuli, and Gisela de France, who became king of Italy in 888. The marriage secured an alliance with the powerful Supponid family, but her husband lost his throne in the following year to Guido, duke of Spoleto. Berengar began to reassert his power in 896 after the fall of the Spoleto family and the withdrawal of Emperor Arnulf von Kärnten from the Italian peninsula; however, a defeat by a Magyar army, and the decision by the Italian nobles to appoint Louis III, king of Lower Burgundy, as king of Italy, delayed Berengar's formal return to power until 905. Bertila would rule alongside him as a _consors,_ a title specifically denoting her informal power and influence, as opposed to a mere _Coniunx_ (wife). They had several children, but only their daughter Gisela is recorded with progeny, marrying Adalbert 'the Rich', margrave of Ivrea.
     “Bertila became empress after her husband was crowned emperor in 915. However she was charged with infidelity, a charge not uncommon against wives of declining kings of that period, and was poisoned, dying before December of the same year.”.⁵

     “Gisela was born about 993, the daughter of Hermann II, Herzog von Schwaben, and Gerberge de Bourgogne. Her first husband was Ernst, Herzog von Schwaben, son of Luitpold, Markgraf von der Ostmark, and his wife Richiza. They had two sons of whom Hermann IV would have progeny. When Ernst died in 1015 she became regent for their son Ernst II. She was then removed from the regency on grounds that she had been too closely related to her late husband. In the same year she married Graf Bruno von Braunschweig, with whom she had a son Liudolf who would have progeny.
     “Her third marriage, in 1017, was to Konrad II, Graf von Speyer, the future Emperor Konrad II, son of Heinrich, Graf von Speyer, and Adelaide of Alsace. Both parties claimed descent from Emperor Otto I 'the Great' and were thus related. Strict canonists took exception to the marriage, and Emperor Heinrich II used this to force Konrad into temporary exile. They became reconciled, and upon Heinrich's death in 1024, her husband Konrad was elected as King of the Germans and crowned in Mainz on 8 September 1024. Heinrich became emperor in 1027. They had a son Heinrich III who would have progeny and succeed his father as emperor, and two daughters.
     “Gisela played an active role in politics, attending imperial councils and had her relative the childless Rudolf III, king of Burgundy, transfer the succession of his realm to her husband. She also participated in several synods of the church.
     “Gisela died of dysentery in the royal palace in Goslar on 14 February 1043. She is interred in the grotto of the cathedral of Speyer, along with several emperors and other members of the imperial family. Her tomb was opened in 1900 and Gisela's mummified body was found to be 172 cm tall, with long blond hair.”.⁴ GAV-28 EDV-28.

Konrad II "the Salic" (?) Holy Roman Emperor was buried after 4 June 1039 at Cathedral of Speyer (Kaiser Dom), Speyer, Stadtkreis Speyer, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany; Per Wikipedia: "A year later in 1039 Conrad fell ill and died of gout in Utrecht.[76] His heart and bowels are buried at the Cathedral of Saint Martin, Utrecht.[77] His body was transferred to Speyer via Cologne, Mainz, and Worms, where the funeral procession made stops. His body is buried at Speyer Cathedral, which was still under construction at this time. During a major excavation in 1900 his sarcophagus was relocated from his original resting place in front of the altar to the crypt, where it is still visible today along with those of seven of his successors."

     DEATH     4 Jun 1039, Utrecht, Utrecht Municipality, Utrecht, Netherlands
     Royalty, Roman emperor, King of Germany, Italy and Burgundy. He was the son of count Heinrich von Speyer, a great-grandson of emperor Otto I the Great, and his wife Adele of Metz. He was the first of the Salian kings and emperors that reigned the empire until 1125. When his mother remarried she gave him to the Bishop of Worms to be raised. During his childhood his claims to his inheritance were lost to relatives. He was powerless, poor and unable to read or write, but his marriage to the rich, beautiful and intelligent Gilsela of Swabia changed his situation vastly. Although he wasn't even a count he was elected German king on September 4th, 1024 and was crowned four days later in Mainz, succeeding Heinrich II. He had a good sense for politics and focused only on possible goals. He named his son Heinrich as his successor and gave the child the duchy of Bavaria. After his first campaign against rebelling nobles in Italy he was crowned King of Italy in 1026. A year later, in March 1027 he was crowned emperor in Rome by Pope John XIX. A campaign against Mieszko II of Poland ended in 1033 with the complete surrender of the polish duke who lost some of his territories and had to accept the German control over Poland. In the same year king Rudolf III of Burgundy died and following a contract from 1006 Burgundy became part of the empire and Konrad was crowned King of Burgundy. He founded the Monastery of Limburg an der Hardt and started the building of the Cathedral of Speyer which he intended to be the burial place for his family. In March 1039 the court stayed in the palatine Nymwegen and later went to Utrecht for Pentecost. He seems to have been unwell for a while and when he visited mass on Sunday he had to be supported by his wife. On Monday, when he wanted to rise for lunch he was hit by a seizure and all attending bishops were called to give him the last rites. He died fast and had barely any time to say goodbye to his family. While his intestines were buried in the Cathedral of Utrecht, his body was brought to Speyer. The funeral procession passed through Cologne, Koblenz, Worms, Mainz to Speyer. He was brought before every altar of every church in the cities they passed. They reached Speyer nearly a month after his death and he was buried in the unfinished cathedral on July 3rd. Bio by: Lutetia

; Per Genealogics:
     “Konrad II was born about 990, the son of a mid-level nobleman in Franconia, Heinrich, Graf von Speyer, and Adelaide of Alsace. Konrad's father was a grandson of Luidgard von Sachsen, a daughter of the great Emperor Otto I who had married the Salian Duke Konrad 'the Red' of Lorraine.
     “Konrad inherited the titles of Count of Speyer and of Worms as an infant when Heinrich died aged only twenty. The orphaned Konrad grew up poor by the standards of the nobility and was raised by the bishop of Worms.
     “He was reputed to be prudent and firm out of his consciousness of deprivation. In 1016 he married Gisela von Schwaben, a twice widowed duchess who was the daughter of Hermann II, Herzog von Schwaben, and Gerberge de Bourgogne. Both parties claimed descent from Emperor Otto I 'the Great' and were thus related. Strict canonists took exception to the marriage, and Emperor Heinrich II used this to force Konrad into temporary exile.
     “They became reconciled, and upon Heinrich's death in 1024, Konrad appeared as a candidate before the electoral assembly of princes at Kamba in the Rhineland. He was elected by the majority and was crowned king in Mainz on 8 September 1024, arguably in the prime of life. It was equally obvious that the Saxon line of emperors was at an end, and all of Europe speculated and manoeuvred to influence the prince-electors in unseemly disrespect for the aging Heinrich II. The Italian bishops paid homage at Konrad's court at Konstanz in June 1025, but lay princes sought to elect Guillaume V of Aquitaine as king instead. However early in 1026 Konrad went to Milan, where Ariberto, archbishop of Milan, crowned him king of Italy. After overcoming some opposition from the towns Konrad reached Rome, where Pope John XIX crowned him emperor at Easter 1027.
     “He formally confirmed the popular legal traditions of Saxony and issued a new constitution for Lombardy. In 1028 at Aachen he had his son Heinrich elected and anointed German king. Heinrich married Gunhild of Denmark, daughter of Knud 'den Store', king of England, Denmark and Norway, and Emma of Normandy. This was an arrangement that Konrad had made many years before, when he gave Knud parts of northern Germany to administer. Heinrich, the later Emperor Heinrich III, became chief counsellor of his father.
     “Konrad campaigned against Poland in 1028 and forced Mieszko II, son and heir of Boleslaw I, to make peace and return land that Boleslaw had conquered from the empire. At the death of Heinrich II the bold and rebellious Mieszko II had tried to throw off his vassalage, but he then submitted and swore to be Emperor Konrad's faithful vassal. Mieszko II ceased to be a self-anointed king and reverted to being duke of Poland.
     “In 1029 some Bavarian border conflicts undermined the good relations with Stephan I of Hungary. One year later Konrad launched a campaign against Hungary. The Hungarians successfully used scorched earth tactics and the emperor had to withdraw with his army. Finally the Hungarian army forced him to surrender at Vienna. After his defeat Konrad was obliged to cede some border territory to Hungary.
     “When Rudolph III, king of Burgundy died on 2 February 1032 he bequeathed his kingdom, which combined two earlier kingdoms of Burgundy, to Konrad. Despite some opposition, the Burgundian and Provencal nobles paid homage to Konrad in Zürich in 1034. This kingdom of Burgundy, which under Konrad's successors would become known as the kingdom of Arles, corresponded to most of the south-eastern quarter of modern France and included western Switzerland, the Franche-Comté and Dauphiné. It did not include the smaller duchy of Burgundy to the north, ruled by a cadet branch of the Capetian kings of France. (Piecemeal over the next centuries most of the former kingdom of Arles was incorporated into France - but King of Arles remained one of the Holy Roman Emperor's subsidiary titles until the dissolution of the Empire in 1806.)
     “Konrad upheld the rights of the _valvassores_ (knights and burghers of the cities) of Italy against Archbishop Aribert of Milan and the local nobles. The nobles as vassal lords and the bishop conspired to rescind rights from the burghers. With skilful diplomacy and luck Konrad restored order.
     “In 1038, Prince Guaimar IV of Salerno requested his adjudication in a dispute over Capua with its Prince Pandulf, whom Konrad had released from imprisonment in 1024, immediately after his coronation. Hearing that the Byzantine Emperor Michael IV 'the Paphlagonian' had received the same request, Konrad travelled to Salerno and Aversa in Southern Italy.
     “He appointed Richer, from Germany, as abbot of Monte Cassino, the abbot Theobald being imprisoned by Pandulf. At Troia, he ordered Pandulf to restore stolen property to Monte Cassino. Pandulf sent his wife and son to ask for peace, giving 300 pounds weight of gold and a son and daughter as hostages. The emperor accepted Pandulf's offer, but the hostages escaped and Pandulf took refuge in his outlying castle of Sant'Agata dei Goti. Konrad besieged and took Capua and gave it to Guaimar with the title of Prince. He also recognised Aversa as a county of Salerno under Pandulf Drengot, the Norman adventurer. Pandulf of Capua, meanwhile fled to Constantinople. Konrad thus left the Mezzogiorno firmly in Guiamar's hands and loyal, for once, to the Holy Roman Empire.
     “During Konrad's return to Germany an epidemic broke out among his troops. Konrad's daughter-in-law and stepson died. Konrad himself returned safely and held several important courts in Solothurn, Strasbourg and Goslar. His son Heinrich was invested with the kingdom of Burgundy.
     “A year later in 1039 Konrad fell ill. He died in Utrecht on 4 June 1039. A biography of Konrad II in chronicle form, _Gesta Chuonradi II imperatoris,_ was written by his chaplain Wipo of Burgundy, and presented to Heinrich III in 1046, not long after Heinrich's coronation as emperor.”.⁵ Konrad II "the Salic" (?) Holy Roman Emperor was also known as Conrad II (?) Emperor of Germany.

; Per Enc. of World History:
     “Conrad II (the Salian). He continued the general policy of Henry: personally interested only in the churches of Limburg and Speyer, he was firm in his dealings with the Church in general and relied on the lesser nobles to balance the clergy and magnates. The ministeriales, laymen of servile origin, were used to replace the clergy in many administrative posts; regalian rights were retained and exploited. Dukedoms were not regranted as they fell vacant, but were assigned to Conrad's son Henry, who, on his accession to the crown, held all but the duchies of Lorraine and Saxony. By encouraging the making of fiefs heritable, Conrad weakened the dukes and got the support of the lesser nobles but ensured the ultimate feudalization of Germany. Conrad's brilliant imperial coronation (1027), in Rome, was witnessed by two kings, Canute the Great and Rudolf III of Burgundy. Burgundy, willed to Conrad by Rudolf III and guardian of one road to Italy, was reincorporated (1033) in the empire on the death of Rudolf. Failure of an expedition (1030) against Stephen of Hungary; successful disciplinary expedition (1031) against the Poles; recovery of Lusatia; payment of homage by the Poles.”.¹⁹ He was King of Germand between 8 September 1024 and 4 June 1039.¹⁴ He was King of Italy between 1026 and 1039.² He was King of Italy between 31 March 1026 and 6 April 1039.¹⁴ He was Holy Roman Emperor between 26 March 1027 and 4 June 1039.^20,2,3,14 He was King of Burgundy between 6 September 1032 and 4 June 1039.^2,14
