Guy I, Count Of Soissons
Guy I (d. after 986), son of Herbert II, Count of Vermandois, and Adele, daughter of Robert I of France. Count of Soissons, inherited from his father upon his death in 943. There is considerable confusion about both Guy’s parentage. Another source claims that Guy was the grandson of Herbert II, being the son of Adalbert I, Count of Vermandois, although there is no evidence that Adalbert was a Count of Soissons. Little is known about Guy. His name appears in a 974 charter in which Lothair of France confirmed the privileges of monastery of Saint-Thierry near Reims. Lothair also confirmed the monastery of Saint-Eloy de Noyon in memory of Guy’s brother Liudolf of Vermandois, Bishop of Noyon and Tournai. Guy founded the abbey at Saint-Quentin near Péronne, and visited Rome in the mid-980s. Guy married Adelisa, the daughter of a Count Giselbert of which nothing is known. Guy and Adelisa had one daughter: *Adelise, Countess of Soissons Adelisa was Countess of Soissons in 988– ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Herbert II, Count Of Vermandois
Herbert II (died 23 February 943), Count of Vermandois, Count of Meaux, and Count of Soissons. He was the first to exercise power over the territory that became the province of Champagne. Life Herbert was the son of Herbert I of Vermandois. He was apparently well aware of his descent from Charlemagne. Herbert inherited the titles of his father in 907: count of Soissons, count of Vermandois, including the positions of Lay abbot of St. Quentin and St. Médard entitling him to the income of those estates. His marriage with a daughter of king Robert I of France brought him the County of Meaux. He acquired the county of Beauvais on the death of his relative, Count Bernard. In 922, when Seulf became Archbishop of Rheims, in an effort to appease Herbert II, Seulf solemnly promised Herbert II that he could nominate his successor. In 923, Count Herbert took the bold step of imprisoning King Charles III, who died still a captive in 929. Then, on the death of Seulf in 925, with the he ...

Robert I Of France
Robert I ( – 15 June 923) was the elected King of West Francia from 922 to 923. Before his election to the throne he was Count of Poitiers, Count of Paris and Marquess, Marquis of Neustria and Orléans. He succeeded the overthrown Carolingian king Charles the Simple, who in 898 had succeeded Robert's brother, king Odo of France, Odo. Life Robert was younger son of count Robert the Strong (d. 866), one of the most prominent nobles in the West Frankish Kingdom during the reign of Charles the Bald. Regarding the identity of Robert's mother, and numbers of marriages of his father, several solutions have been proposed in scholarly literature. Chronicler Regino of Prüm (d. 915) stated that count Adalhelm was maternal uncle () of Roberts's brother Odo, meaning that Odo's mother (and thus maybe Roberts's too) was sister of Adalhelm, but some alternative genealogical solutions have been also suggested by scholars. On the other side, several researchers have proposed that Odo's and Rob ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
