Ruothild (daughter Of Charlemagne)
Ruothild (died 24 March 852) was a Carolingian dynasty, Carolingian princess and the abbess of Faremoutiers. She was a daughter of Charlemagne and his concubine Madelgard, who is the first of the concubines listed by Einhard in his ''Life of Charlemagne''. Ruothild is generally thought to have been born after the death of Charlemagne's last wife, Luitgard (Frankish queen), Liutgard, in 800, although it has been suggested that she may be the unnamed daughter mentioned in a poem of Theodulf praising Liutgard's relationship with her stepchildren. As a daughter of Charlemagne, Ruothild probably received an education. Later legend relates that her father gave her a gilt silver reliquary containing a piece of the True Cross. As abbess, she oversaw the transfer of the relics of Burgundofara, the founder and namesake of Faremoutiers, to a new shrine. She had the body wrapped in a red Byzantine silk decorated with bare-breasted Amazons. Her choice of silk suggests familiarity with Orosius ...

Necrology
An obituary ( obit for short) is an article about a recently deceased person. Newspapers often publish obituaries as news articles. Although obituaries tend to focus on positive aspects of the subject's life, this is not always the case. According to Nigel Farndale, the Obituaries Editor of ''The Times'', obituaries ought to be "balanced accounts" written in a "deadpan" style, and should not read like a hagiography. In local newspapers, an obituary may be published for any local resident upon death. A necrology is a register or list of records of the deaths of people related to a particular organization, group or field, which may only contain the sparsest details, or small obituaries. Historical necrologies can be important sources of information. Two types of paid advertisements are related to obituaries. One, known as a death notice, usually appears in the Births, Marriages and Deaths (BMD) section of a paper and omits most biographical details and may be a legally requi ...
