Medieval Lands by Charles Cawley, Foundation for Medieval Genealogy BERENGARIO d´Ivrea, son of ADALBERTO I Conte e Marchese d'Ivrea & hisfirst wife Gisela di Friulia ([900]-in prison Bamberg 6 Jul 966, burRegensburg). Liutprand names Berengar as son of "Adelberto Eporegiæcivitatis marchione [et]…Gisla Berengarii regis filia"[557]. He tookpart in the battle of Firenzuola against his maternal grandfather. Hesucceeded his father in [923/24] as BERENGARIO II Marchese d'Ivrea.In [940], he was forced to flee Ivrea by Ugo King of Italy whoabolished the March of Ivrea. He was invited to the court of KingUgo, who intended to blind him, but was warned by Ugo's son Lothar andmade his escape. He found refuge with Hermann Duke of Swabia, andlater settled at the court of Otto I King of Germany. After returningto Italy in 945, he defeated King Ugo who was declared deposed by adiet at Milan, although Berengario allowed him to retain the title ofking and himself assumed the title summus consiliarius[558]. He wasproclaimed BERENGARIO II King of Italy by a general diet at Pavia 15Dec 950, after the death of Lothar King of Italy. However, King Ottoinvaded Italy, on the pretext of King Berengario's mistreatment ofAdelais, the wife of his predecessor King Lothar, and himself took thetitle King of Italy at Pavia 23 Sep 951. Having submitted to Otto,Berengario proposed himself as viceroy in Italy, which was accepted bythe council of Augsburg Aug 952. Berengario reasserted hisindependence. Otto sent his son Liudolf to reimpose order, but thelatter died there of fever in 957. After several further years oftyrannical rule, Otto invaded Italy again in Aug 961 in response torequests for his intervention from Pope John XII and Hubert [deProvence] Duke of Spoleto, one of Berengario's main vassals. Heforced Berengario's retreat to the fortress of San Giulio nearMontefeltro in 962. He finally captured Berengario in 963, and tookhim as a prisoner to Bamberg, where he died soon after[559]. Thenecrology of Fulda records the death "966 2 Non Aug" of "Berengerrex"[560]. Regino records the death of Berengario and his burial atRegensburg[561]. m ([930/31]) WILLA d’Arles, daughter of BOSO Comte d’Avignon Marcheseof Tuscany & his wife Willa --- ([910]-Bamberg after 966). "Bertam,Willam, Richildam et Gislam" are named (in order) as the fourdaughters of Boso and Willa by Liutprand[562]. Willa is named "rexHugo neptim suam…ex Willa uxore sua Boso Tusciæ provinciæ marchioregis frater" by Liutprand when he records her marriage toBerengario[563]. She ordered the imprisonment of Adelheid, widow ofher husband's predecessor Lothar [de Provence] King of Italy. Sheretreated with her husband to the fortress of San Giulio in the faceof Otto King of Germany's invasion, but was captured and taken toBamberg with Berengario. Regino records that Willa became a nun afterher husband died before he was buried[564]. Berengario & his wife had [seven] children: 1. ADALBERTO d´Ivrea ([932/936]-Autun 30 Apr 971[565]).Liudprand names "Adalbertus" as son of "Berengarius"[566]. His fatherinstalled him in 951 as ADALBERTO associate-King of Italy. When OttoI King of Germany invaded Italy in 962, Adalberto retreated with hisbrother Guido to fortresses near Lakes Como and Garda. Conspiringwith Pope John XII, he entered Rome in Oct 963 but was put to flightby Emperor Otto in the following month, along with Pope John whom Ottodeposed for his betrayal. Adalberto wandered the Mediterranean forthree years unsuccessfully attempting to find support, and eventuallyretired to lands in the valley of the Saône. m (before [960/62]) asher first husband, GERBERGE, daughter of --- & his wife Adélaïde [deBourgogne] ([945]-11 Dec [986/991]). Her name and her two marriagesare confirmed by the Chronicle of Saint-Bénigne, interpolated into theChronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines, which names "GuilelmumOttonem et eius matrem Gerbergam" when recording that her son wasadopted by his mother's second husband "dux Burgundie Henricus"[567].Her birth date is estimated from the estimated birth date of her sonin [960/62]. The Vita of Hugues Comte de Chalon refers to his(unnamed) sister as having married the Duke of Burgundy[568].Chronologically, this refers most probably to Duke Henri who died in1002, although the original of this document has not yet beenconsulted to check whether the wording supports this conclusion.Gerberge's origin has not yet been corroborated in the other primarysources so far consulted. The Vita appears to indicate that she wasGerberge, daughter of Lambert Comte de Chalon, but this raises severalproblems if it is correct. Firstly, on the death without direct heirsin 1039 of her supposed brother Hugues Comte de Chalon, the county wasinherited by the comparatively obscure children of his younger sisterMathilde, apparently ignoring the superior claims of Gerberge's ownnumerous descendants, among whom were the powerful counts palatine ofBurgundy who, one would have thought, would not have missed theopportunity of acquiring another county. Rodulfus Glaber does recordthat "Hugo filius Lanberti Cabilonensis comitis…episcopusAutissioderi" was an opponent of "Willemus, Henrici ducis priuignus,Adalberti Longobardorum ducis filius"[569], which could explain whyBishop Hugues favoured his nephew by his younger sister to succeed tohis county. Nevertheless, after the bishop's death, his pastopposition to Comte Otto-Guillaume may have provided an excuse for hisson to intervene in the Chalon succession if he had a legitimateclaim. Secondly, considering the likely birth date of her son,Gerberge's first marriage must have taken place while her husband andfather-in-law were still reigning kings of Italy. They were undercontinuous pressure from Otto I King of Germany and it is likely thatAdalberto's marriage could have brought additional political support.It is not clear how the relatively obscure count of Chalon could haveprovided this. Thirdly, after the death in 978 of Lambert Comte deChalon, and his widow's second marriage to Geoffroy I Comte d'Anjou,no record has been found in the primary sources so far consulted ofHenri Duke of Burgundy intervening to prevent Comte Geoffroy takingcontrol of the county of Chalon, which would have been the likelycourse of action if his wife was the deceased count's oldest child.Fourthly, Gerberge's estimated birth date creates seriouschronological problems if she was the daughter of Lambert's only knownwife Adelais. In conclusion, considerable doubt therefore appears tosubsist on this origin of Gerberge, although no alternative can as yetbe proposed if we are to respect the wording of the Vita. She marriedsecondly Henri Duke of Burgundy [Capet]. The necrology of Auxerrecathedral records the death 11 Dec of "Gerberga comitissa uxor Henriciducis"[570]. Adalberto & his wife had [two] children: a) GUGLIELMO d´Ivrea ([960/62]-Dijon 21 Sep 1026). RodulfusGlaber names "Willemus, Henrici ducis priuignus, AdalbertiLongobardorum ducis filius" and records that, as a boy, he wassecretly stolen from the land of the Lombards and restored to hismother with no small cunning by a certain monk[571]."Einricus…imperator" confirmed the property of the abbey ofFruttuaria, referring to property donated by "Otto qui et Vuillielmuscomes filius Adalberti nepos Berengarii regis", by charter dated1014[572]. It is assumed from this that he was imprisoned as a childby Emperor Otto I in Italy after his father and paternal grandfatherwere deposed as kings of Italy. The Chronicle of Saint-Bénigne,interpolated into the Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines, names"Guilelmum Ottonem et eius matrem Gerbergam" when recording that hewas adopted by his mother's second husband "dux BurgundieHenricus"[573]. He adopted the name OTHON-GUILLAUME. He succeeded asOTHON [I] Comte de Mâcon, by right of his first wife. - COMTES de MÂCON. b) [WILLIBIRG. Jackman suggests[574] that the mother ofHunfried canon at Strasbourg was the daughter of Adalberto associateKing of Italy. He bases this on onomastic reasons, in particular theimportation of the Ivrean name Berengar into the family of Liutold andthe use of "Willa" among the ancestors of Adalbert King of Italy.However, another origin is suggested by the necrology of Zwiefaltenwhich records the death "XIV Kal Dec" of "Unruoch proavus Liutoldicomitis"[575]. If this great grandfather were the father ofWillibirg, it may also explain how the name Berenger entered thefamily, assuming Unruoch was related to the Unruochingi Counts ofFriulia. m LIUTOLD Graf im Sundgau, son of KONRAD Duke of Swabia[Konradiner] & his wife Richlint of Germany.] 2. GUIDO d´Ivrea ([940]-killed in battle on the Po 25 Jun965). The Gesta Mediolanensium names (in order) "Widone, Adelberto etConone" as sons of King Berengario (although Adalberto was presumablythe oldest son as his father installed him as associated king),specifying that "Widone" was killed soon after his father'scapture[576]. Marchese d'Ivrea (957-62). He conquered Spoleto andCamerino in 959. When Otto I King of Germany invaded in 962, Guidoretreated with his brother Adalberto to fortresses near Lakes Como andGarda. "Otto…imperator augustus" gave property "in comitatu Motinenseseu Boloniense" previously held by "Uuidoni quondam marchioni seuConrado qui et Cono…filiis Berengarii seu Uuille ipsius Berengariiuxoris eorumque matris" to Guido Bishop of Modena by charter dated 12Sep 963[577]. The necrology of Merseburg records the death "25 Jun"of "Vuido filius Berengaris regis"[578]. 3. CORRADO CONO d´Ivrea (-[998/1001]). The GestaMediolanensium names (in order) "Widone, Adelberto et Conone" as sonsof King Berengario, specifying that "Conone" made peace with theemperor[579]. Marchese of Milan [957-61]. "Otto…imperator augustus"gave property "in comitatu Motinense seu Boloniense" previously heldby "Uuidoni quondam marchioni seu Conrado qui et Cono…filiisBerengarii seu Uuille ipsius Berengarii uxoris eorumque matris" toGuido Bishop of Modena by charter dated 12 Sep 963[580]. He abandonedhis brother Adalberto, recognising the authority of the emperor, andwas installed in [965] as CORRADO Marchese d'Ivrea. "Corado qui etCona marchio, f. bonæ memoriæ Berengarii regis, et Yhilda filiaArdoini marchionis, jugales" donated property to the church ofVercelli by charter dated 1 Oct 987[581]. "Conradus marchio,Berengarii regis filius et Richilda uxor" donated property to thechurch of Milan by charter dated 989[582]. m (before 1 Oct 987)RICHILDA, daughter of ARDOINO "Glabrio" Marchese of Turin & his wife--- (-after 989). "Corado qui et Cona marchio, f. bonæ memoriæBerengarii regis, et Yhilda filia Ardoini marchionis, jugales" donatedproperty to the church of Vercelli by charter dated 1 Oct 987[583]."Conradus marchio, Berengarii regis filius et Richilda uxor" donatedproperty to the church of Milan by charter dated 989[584]. 4. GISLA d´Ivrea . "Gislam [et]…Girbergam" are named asdaughters of Berengar and Willa by Liutprand[585]. The primary sourcewhich confirms her marriage has not yet been identified. Nun, living965. [586][m RAMBOLDO [II], son of [RAMBOLDO [I] & his wife ---](-before 1040). According to the Almanach de Gotha, Ramboldo I wasancestor of the family Collalto[587]. According to GenealogischesHandbuch des Adels, he was sent to Treviso by Otto I King of Germany14 Nov 944[588]. Ancestors of the Conti di Treviso e Collalto.] 5. GILBERGA d´Ivrea (945-). "Gislam [et]…Girbergam" are namedas daughters of Berengar and Willa by Liutprand[589]. "Berengarius etAdelbertus filius eius…Reges" confirmed a donation to the abbey ofGrazano by "Aledramus Marchio filius Gulielmi Comitis et Gilbergafilius D. Berengarii Regis, et Anselmus seu Oddo germani lege viventesSalica", for the soul of "quondam Gulielmi qui fuit filius etfiliaster atque germanus noster", by charter dated Aug 951[590]. Thedating of this charter is dubious, assuming that Gilberga´s date ofbirth is correct as shown above. m (before Aug 961) as his secondwife, ALERAMO Signor del Marchio del Monferrato, son of ConteGUGLIELMO [Monferrato] & his wife --- (-[967/91]). 6. ROZALA [Suzanne] d´Ivrea ([950/960]-13 Dec 1003 or 7 Feb1004, bur Gent, church of the Abbey de Saint-Pierre du Mont-Blandin).Regino records that two of the daughters (unnamed) of ex-KingBerengario were brought up in the imperial palace by the empress afterbeing brought to Germany[591]. One of these two daughters waspresumably Rozala, bearing in mind that the emperor arranged hermarriage. The Genealogica Comitum Flandriæ Bertiniana names "filiamBerengeri regis Langobardorum, Ruzelam quæ et Susanna" as wife ofComte Arnoul[592]. The Annales Elnonenses Minores record the marriage[undated between 950 and 968] of "Arnulfus iunior" and "filiamBeregeri regis Susannam"[593]. Her marriage was presumably arrangedby Emperor Otto to increase his influence in Flanders at a time whenLothaire IV King of the West Franks was asserting his own control overthe county. According to Nicholas, Count Arnoul II married Rozalad´Ivrea when he reached the age of majority in 976[594], but thesource on which this is based has not been located. "Baldwinusmarchysus cum matre sua Susanna" donated "villam Aflingehem…jacentemin pago Tornacinse" to Saint-Pierre de Gand, after the death of"Arnulfi marchysi", by charter dated 1 Apr 988, signed by "…Waldbertoadvocato, Theoderico comite, Arnulfo comite, Artoldo comite, Baldwinocomite, item Arnulfo comite…"[595]. The Vita Sancti Bertulfi names"Rozala filia…Berengarii Regis Italiæ", specifying that "post mortemArnulfi [Balduini filius] principis, Roberto Regi Francorum nupsit etSusanna dicta"[596]. Kerrebrouck, presumably basing his suppositionon this passage from the Vita Sancti Bertulfi, says that she adoptedthe name Suzanne on her second marriage[597], but the sources quotedabove show that she was referred to by this name earlier. Hugues"Capet" King of France arranged her second marriage to his son andheir, apparently as a reward for Flemish help when he seized power in987[598]. She was given Montreuil-sur-Mer by the county of Flandersas her dowry on her second marriage. Richer records that King Robertrepudiated his wife "Susannam…genere Italicam eo quod anus esset" butrefused to allow her to retake her castle at Montreuil, whereupon sheconstructed another nearby[599]. She returned to Flanders after shewas repudiated by her second husband, and became one of the principaladvisers of her son Count Baldwin IV. France retainedMontreuil-sur-Mer. "Susanna regina cum filio suo Baldwino" donated"alodem suum…Atingehem…et in Testereph" to Saint-Pierre de Gand, forthe soul of "filie sue Mathildis", by charter dated 26 Jun 995[600]."Susanna regina…cum filio suo Baldwino" donated "alodem suum…in pagoFlandrensi…in Holtawa…in Fresnere…in Clemeskirca…in Jatbeka…inSclefteta…" to Saint-Pierre de Gand by charter dated 1 Jun 1003[601].The Annales Elnonenses Minores records the death in 1003 of "Susannaregina"[602]. The Memorial of "regina Susanna" records her death "VIIFeb"[603]. m firstly ([968][604]) ARNOUL II “le Jeune” Count ofFlanders, son of BAUDOUIN III joint Count of Flanders & his wifeMechtild of Saxony [Billung] ([961/62]-30 Mar 987, bur Ghent). msecondly (988 before 1 Apr, repudiated [991/92]) as his first wife,ROBERT Associate-King of France, son of HUGUES Capet King of France &his wife Adelais d’Aquitaine (Orléans ([27 Mar] 972-Château de Melun20 Jul 1031, bur église de l'Abbaye royale de Saint-Denis).
