INTRODUCTION

 

The archiepiscopal province of Reims evolved from the Roman province “Belgica secunda”, with Reims as its capital.  From the point of view of civil adminstration, the boundary between the kingdoms of Neustria (to the west) and Austrasia (to the east) lay to the west of Reims.  The archbishopric of Reims included the bishoprics of Amiens, Arras, Beauvais, Cambrai, Châlons, Laon, Morinie (also known as Thérouanne), Noyon, Senlis, Soissons and Tournai.  All these dioceses fell within the kingdom of the West Franks, except for the bishopric of Cambrai and the eastern part of the temporal jurisdiction of the archbishops of Reims which were allocated to Lotharingia under the 843 Treaty of Verdun. 

 

 

 

 

Chapter 1.    ARCHBISHOPS of REIMS

 

 

No precise information is known about the family origin of Ebbo Archbishop of Reims.  Flodoard indicates that he was of Germanic origin, specifying “patria Transrhenensis ac Germanicus”.  From Flodoard´s perspective, writing probably in the area of Reims, this would indicate the right bank of the river Rhine.  As contemporary sources often specify Saxon or Swabian origins where applicable, it is probably a safe assumption that Ebbo´s family originated in the German province of Franconia.  Flodoard specifies that Ebbo was “collactaneus et conscholasticus” of the future Emperor Louis I.  If taken literally, “collactaneus” would indicate that the two shared the same mother´s milk, suggesting that Ebbo´s mother was the emperor´s wet-nurse, and “conscholasticus” that they were educated together.  Whatever the precise implication of the words, they presumably mean that Ebbo was brought up in the royal household and owed his advancement to his early contact with the future emperor´s family.  Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris goes one step further by specifying that Ebbo was "ex originalium servorum stirpe".  However, Ebbo was a leading influence in the rebellions against Emperor Louis by his older sons Lothaire and Ludwig in 830 and 833.  It is most likely that Thegan, in his panegyric of the emperor´s life, was trying to disparage Ebbo (whom he describes as “inpudicum et crudelissimum” in the same passage) by denigrating his family background.  It cannot therefore be concluded that Ebbo was certainly of plebeian origin.  Another possibility is that his mother was a lower-level noblewoman at court, who gave birth around the same time as Emperor Louis´s mother and provided short-term nursing services out of convenience and loyalty.  It should be remembered that Emperor Louis was born a twin and was therefore likely to have needed prompt attention in the early days of his life.  If she was a courtier of the royal household, it is unlikely that Ebbo´s mother was a junior member of the royal family as such consanguinity would have been mentioned by the earlier chroniclers.  Apart from the name of Ebbo´s mother, and the references to his nephew whom he appointed as abbot of Reims Saint-Rémy, no other information has been found in the primary sources which have been consulted concerning other members of the archbishop´s family.  Nor have any details been traced of his ecclesiastical career before his nomination to the archiepiscopal see.  Only two other examples of the name Ebbo have been found.  Firstly, the Chronicle of Saint-Maxence records a certain "Ebbo" who founded "Bituricus" in 910, where "filius eius Rodulfus" became a monk[1] (see the document CAROLINGIAN NOBILITY), but no connection has been found with the archbishop´s family.  Secondly, “orientales Franci:...Ebo comes” is one of the subscribers of the charter dated 19 Oct [1027] under which "Comes Didericus et filius eius Gisilbertus" relinquished rights to Kloster Michelsberg near Bamberg[2]

 

1.         --- (-before 816).  m HIMILTRUDIS, daughter of --- (-28 Aug [826]).  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records the epitaph of “Ebo...mater Himiltrudis” which states that she died remained with her son for ten years after his succession as archbishop and died “quinto...September...Kalendarum[3].  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ implies that Himiltrudis had been the wet-nurse of the future Emperor Louis I, when it states that her son Ebbo had been “imperatoris...Ludwici collactaneus et conscholasticus[4].  The necrology of Reims records her death 28 Aug[5].  [Two] children: 

a)         EBBO ([778]-20 Mar 851).  Archbishop of Reims 816.  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records the succession of “Ebo...patria Transrhenensis ac Germanicus, imperatoris...Ludwici collactaneus et conscholasticus[6].  Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris names "Ebo Remensis episcopus...ex originalium servorum stirpe"[7].  The Annales Xantanses record in 823 that "Ebo episcopus...cum Wildericho episcopo" [Archbishop of Bremen] went “partibus Danorum[8].  Archbishop Ebbo supported the older sons of Emperor Louis against their father at Compiègne (in 830) and Soissons (833) and in 835 at the council of Thionville was obliged by the emperor to resign his office: the circumstances leading to the deposition, and eventual restoration, of “Ebbo...episcopus” are detailed in a manuscript written by clerics at Reims[9].  “Ebo...episcopus” recognised his errors before “Aiulfum...archiepiscopum et Badaradum episcopum...et Modoinum episcopum” [Archbishop of Bourges, Bishops of Paderborn and Autun][10].  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that, after his deposition, “Ebo” remained “in Cisalpinis...regionibus” until the death of Emperor Louis [dated to 20 Jun 840], and quotes the edict dated 24 Jun 840 by which Emperor Lothaire I restored him as archbishop of Reims[11].  There is  no indication that the vacancy which resulted at Reims was filled during that period.  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that, after Charles II “le Chauve” King of the West Franks returned “in Belgicam” (presumably indicating the Roman ecclesiastical province Belgica II, and referring to the implementation of the Aug 843 Treaty of Verdun), Ebbo left Reims and went to Emperor Lothaire (presumably in Italy) who granted him “abbatiam sancti Columbani in Italia”, and later to Ludwig II “der Deutsche” King of the East Franks who granted him “in regione Saxonie...episcopium[12]Bishop of Hildesheim [847]: Ebbo´s new bishopric is confirmed as Hildesheim by the Annalista Saxo which names the first three bishops of Hildesheim “Guntario et Reinberno qui per 20 annos illi eclesie prefuerunt, tercio Ebbone prius Remense archiepiscopo, post Hildinisheimensi episcopo[13].  The necrology of Reims records the death “XIII Kal Apr” of “Ebo archiepiscopus[14]

b)         [--- .  Assuming that “nepos” in the source quoted below can be interpreted literally, one of the parents of Ebbo was the sibling of Ebbo Archbishop of Reims[15].m ---.  One child: 

i)          EBBO (-[869])Abbot of Reims Saint-Rémy before 835[16].  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that Hincmar wrote to Charles II “le Chauve” King of the West Franks concerning “Gothescalci blasphemias” in which he records that “Ebone...religiosus...in Remensis ecclesie monasterio ubi requiescit sanctum Remigius” was installed as abbot “a domno Ebone avunculo suo tunc Remorum archiepiscopo[17]Bishop of Grenoble [853].  The primary source which confirms that Ebbo abbot of Reims Saint-Rémy was appointed bishop of Grenoble has not yet been identified.  An undated charter records the presence of “...Ebo Gratianopolitanensis episcopus...” at the assembly held at Sermorens to decide disputes between “Agilmarum archiepiscopum et Wigerium comitem[18].  Duchesne dates this assembly to [853][19].  Hincmar names “Ebo Gratianopolitanus episcopus” in a letter addressed to Charles II “le Chauve” King of the West Franks[20], dated by Schrörs to [853/56][21].  The record of the council held at Valence 8 Jan 855 names “...Ebbone Gratianopolitano episcopo” among those present[22].  The record of the council held at Saint-Geômes near Langres in Apr 859 is witnessed by “...Ebo Gratianopolitanus...[23].  “...Ebbo Gratianopolitanus episcopus...” was among those who signed a letter dated 14 Jun 859 addressed to “Gueniloni Senonum metropolitano” at the council of Savonnières[24].  A list of the bishops of Grenoble, dated to [1080/1132], names “Ebbo Gratianopolitanus ecclesie...contemporaneus Agilmari archiepiscopi” and his participation in the election of “archiepiscopum sanctum Adonem” after the death of “Agilmarus archiepiscopus Viennensis” in 860[25]The editor of the MGH edition of Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that Ebbo Bishop of Grenoble died möglicherweise...erst gegen 869 gestorben”, which is the date of the election of his successor[26].    

 

 

Archbishop Hincmar was related to Bernard Comte de Toulouse, son of Raymond I Comte de Toulouse whom he succeeded in [865], and to Bertrand Comte du Tardenois: Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that Hincmar wrote to “Bernardo comiti Tolosano propinquo suo” concerning property of the church of Reims “in Aquitania[27], dated by Schrörs to [869/75][28].  He was also related Bertrand Comte en Tardenois, who has not otherwise been traced in other sources: the same source records that Hincmar wrote to “Bertrano...comiti Tardunensis pagi propinquo suo” concerning “sacramento regi agendo...in ipsius comitatu[29] (dated by Schrörs to [Jun/Jul] 854[30]), and to “Bertrano comiti Tardunensis pagi pro loco vacante sine presbytero” (dated to [854/82] by Schrörs)[31].  Hincmar in a letter addressed to Pope Nicholas I, records that he “in palatio domni Hludovici imperatoris non modico tempore manserit” before being educated “sub canonico habitu” at the monastery of Saint-Denis where he converted “ad regularem vitam et habitum fratribus[32]

 

1.         --- .  m --- (-859).  Schrörs records that “Hincmars Mutter” died in 859, adding that in 858 “sie erlebte die Erhebung ihres Enkels auf den Stuhl von Laon um mehr als 1 Jahr und 4 Monate[33].  [Three] children: 

a)         HINCMAR (-Epernay 7 Jul 882).  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that “Hincmarus” spent his boyhood “in monasterio sancti Dyonissi sub Hilduino abbate[34]Archbishop of Reims 845: Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that Hincmar was appointed archbishop of Reims at the council of Beauvais in 845, ten years after the deposition of Ebbo[35].  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records the presence in 853 (“Hincmarus anno sui episcopatus VII”) at the synod at Soissons of “Wenilone Sennense archiepiscopo, Amalrico Turonense, Teoderico Cameracense episcopo, Rothado Suessonico, Lupo Cathalaunense, Immone Noviomagense, Erpuino Silvanectense, Erminfrido Belvacense, Pardulo Laudunense, Hilmerado Ambianense, Hucberto Meldense, Agio Aurelianense, Prudentio Trecasino, Hermanno Nivernense, Iona Augustudense, Godelsado Cavillonense, Dodone Andagavense, Guntberto Ebroicense, Hildebranno Sagense, Rigboldo Remorum corepiscopo[36].  A document issued by Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks dated Nov 853 names "Hincmarus episcopus, Ricuinus, Engilscalchus" as missi in "Remitiano, Vonziso, Stadiniso, Pertiso, Barriso, Camiziso, Catalaunio, Virtudiso, Bagensoniso, Tardaniso"[37].  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records the death “apud villam Sparnacum...mense VII et die IIII” in 882 of Hincmar in his 37th year of office and quotes his epitaph[38].  The Annales Vedastini record the death in 882 of “Hincmarus Remorum archiepiscopus[39].  The necrology of the church of Reims records the death "X Kal Jan" of "domnus Hincmarus Remorum archiepiscopus” and his donation[40]

b)         HILDEGUND (-after [878/81]).  Her relationship to Archbishop Hincmar is confirmed by Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ which records that Hincmar wrote to “Evrardo sororis sue Hildegundis filio vel genero” concerning his relations with “Ludovicum regem Transrenensem...ne suum alodum quem in Alemannia habebat[41]m ---.  One child: 

i)          daughter .  Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ which records that Hincmar wrote to “Evrardo sororis sue Hildegundis filio vel genero” concerning his relations with “Ludovicum regem Transrenensem...ne suum alodum quem in Alemannia habebat[42]m EVERARD, son of ---. 

c)         [--- .  It is not known whether the sibling of Archbishop Hincmar, who was the parent of Hincmar and his sister who are shown below, was the archbishop´s sister Hildegund who is shown above.]  m ---.  [Three] children: 

i)          HINCMAR  .  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that Hincmar wrote to “Hincmaro nepoti suo Laudunensi episcopo” stating that “tu...in diocesi Remensi natus est et in metropoli Remorum nutritus et in municipio Lauduni ordinatus[43].  Mabillon states that “Hincmarus junior” was “ex Bononiæ territorio nativus dicitur” and that Hincmar Archbishop of Reims names “nepotis sui sobrinum Anselmum[44]Bishop of Laon 858.  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that Hincmar wrote to “Bertulfo archiepiscopo Trevirensi” naming “Hincmarum Laudunensem episcopum, Hodonem Belvacensem et Iohannem Cameracensem[45].  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that Hincmar wrote to King Charles II “le Chauve” “de causa Hincmari nepoti sui montis Lauduni episcopi[46].  Deposed 876.  The Annales Vedastini state that “Hincmarus Laudunensium episcopus” was blinded by “Bosone”, when recording in 878 that the former was condemned at a court of Pope John VIII attended by “omnibus Gallicanis episcopis” but continued to proclaim his innocence and celebrate mass[47]

ii)         daughter .  m ---.  One child: 

(1)       SIGEBERT .  Schrörs names Sigebert, son of a sister of Hincmar Bishop of Laon[48]

iii)        [son/daughter .  It is not known whether Anselme´s parent was the same person as the mother of Sigebert (see above).  ]  m ---.  One child: 

(1)       ANSELME .  Mabillon states that “Hincmarus junior” was “ex Bononiæ territorio nativus dicitur” and that Hincmar Archbishop of Reims names “nepotis sui sobrinum Anselmum[49].  Schrörs names Anselm as “einem Geschwisterkinde” of Hincmar Bishop of Laon[50]

 

 

Foulques Archbishop of Reims was related to Guido III Duke of Spoleto, who in 889 was elected as Guido King of Italy: Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that “Folco” wrote to Pope Stephen concerning “Widone...affine suo quem idem papa in filium adopteverat...[Widonis ducis][51], and the much later Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records that "archiepiscopus Fulco" held a council at Reims in 892 and that in the same year "Guido cognatus eiusdem archiepiscopi" started to reign in Italy[52].  Use of the word “affinis” in the former source suggests that the relationship may have been through marriage not by blood.  The word “cognatus”, as used in the second source, can sometimes be interpreted as brother-in-law, but this use is not consistent enough to draw conclusions about the precise relationship between Archbishop Foulques and King Guido.  Many details about the Spoleto family are unknown.  The identity of King Guido´s mother has not been ascertained, that of his paternal grandmother is uncertain, the number of his sisters and paternal aunts is not fixed, and there are numerous other gaps in current knowledge about his more distant ancestors who are recorded at Nantes in Brittany and Franconia.  Given the number of possibilities, further speculation about the precise relationship is pointless. 

 

Two brothers, parents not known: 

1.         FOULQUES (-killed 17 Jun 900, bur Reims Saint-Rémy).  Abbot of Saint-Bertin 878: the Chartularium Sithiense records that “Folco canonicus” succeeded “Hilduino” as abbot of Saint-Bertin “V Id Feb” 878 and that “Folco iam dictus abbas” succeeded at Reims after the death in 882 of “Hincmarus archipresul Remensis ecclesiæ[53]Archbishop of Reims 883.  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records the succession “in episcopatu Renesi” of “Folco, vir...nobilis et palatinis assuetus officiis” after the death of Hincmar and his installation by “Marino pape delegans[54]Regino names "Folcone episcopo, Heriberto et Pippino comitibus in Remorum civitate" when recording that they supported the accession of Charles as king in 892 in opposition to King Eudes[55].  The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records that "archiepiscopus Fulco" held a council at Reims in 892 and that in the same year "Guido cognatus eiusdem archiepiscopi" started to reign in Italy[56].  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that “Folconis episcopi” was killed by “Winemaro[57].  The Annales Vedastini record the death “XVI Kal Jul” 900 of “Fulchoni archiepiscopo”, killed by “Winemarus”, and his burial “Remis...in ecclesia beati Remigii[58].  Regino records in 903 that “Folco Remorum archiepiscopus” was killed “a quodam Winemaro satellite Balduini comitis[59].  The necrology of Reims records the death “XV Kal Jul” of “dominus Fulco archiepiscopus...interfectus” and his donation of “Nemincum[60]

2.         RAMPO (-[before 882/84]).  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that “Folco” wrote to Pope Marinus concerning “quodam monasterio [=Bonneval] quod frater ipsius...Rampo” ordered the construction in his testament and which was later completed by “Erminfridus...qui uxorem ipsius Ramponis viduam...copulaverat[61]m as her first husband, ---.  She married secondly Ermenfred

 

 

1.         HERIVE, son of [URSON Comte en Champagne] & his wife [Berthe] d´Ostrevant (-2 Jul 922)Archbishop of Reims 900.  The Annales Vedastini record the ordination of “episcopo Herveo” at Reims in 900 after the death of “Fulchoni archiepiscopo[62].  Flodoard names "domnus Heriveus ex aula…regis" as "nepos ex sorore Hucbaldi comitis" when recording his appointment as archbishop of Reims[63].  He granted his brother and nephew the domains of Vandières and Binson on which they built the castle of Châtillon-sur-Marne.  Flodoard records in 922 that "Heriveus Remorum archiepiscopus" died “tertia die post consecrationem Rotberti regis...VI Non Jul”, four days before the end of his 22nd year in office[64].  The necrology of Reims records the death “VI Non Jul” of “dominus Heriveus archiepiscopus[65]

 

 

1.             SEULF (-925).  Archdeacon of Reims.  Archbishop of Reims 922.  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records the succession of “Seulfus...urbis huius...archidiacon[us][66].  Flodoard records the succession of "Seulfus, qui tunc urbis eiusdem ministerio fungebatur archidiaconatus" as archbishop of Reims in 922[67].  Flodoard records the death in 925 of "Seulfus Remorum archiepiscopus" after holding office for three years and five days[68].  The Annales Remenses record in 926 that, after the death of "Seulfo archipresule", "Hugo filius Heriberti comitis, adhuc quinquennis" was elected[69].  The necrology of the church of Reims records the death "Kal Sep" of "Seulphus Remensis archiepiscopus"[70]

 

 

1.         HUGUES de Vermandois, son of HERIBERT [II] Comte de Vermandois & his wife Adela [Capet] (920-Meaux 962).  His father engineered the grant by Raoul King of France of the temporal administration of the archbishopric of Reims to Hugues in 925.  The Annales Remenses record in 926 that, after the death of "Seulfo archipresule", "Hugo filius Heriberti comitis, adhuc quinquennis" was elected[71].  The appointment was confirmed by Pope John X, but the grant was withdrawn by the king in 932 after he besieged the city[72].  Hugues entered holy orders in 940, and was installed as Archbishop of Reims: Flodoard records in 940 that “Widone Suessonico præsule” ordained “Hugo filius Heriberti Remis...presbiter” and that "Hugone diacono Heriberti filio" was installed as archbishop of Reims in the same year[73].  His father, who had captured Reims in [Jun/Jul] 940, forced Hugues's restoration as archbishop.  Besieged at Laon, King Louis IV was obliged to confirm Hugues's appointment as archbishop and also appointed Hugues as his Arch-Chancellor.  Hugues was expelled from Reims in 946 when the town was retaken by King Louis.  He was finally deprived of his archbishopric by the papal legate in 948: Flodoard records in 948 that “litteras...ex nomine Agapiti papæ” sent “ad episcopos per clericum suum” ordered “Hugoni” to withdraw from “Remense...episcopium[74].  Flodoard records in 949 that “Agapitus papa” held a synod “apud sanctum Petrum” which confirmed “dampnationem Hugonis episcopi apud Ingulenheim” and excommunicated him[75].  He died on returning from a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela[76]

 

 

[Five] siblings: 

1.         DODON, son of --- (-after 949).  Nephew of Bernard comes de Porcieso.  933.  Flodoard's Annals record that in 943 "Hugo episcopus" besieged "Altmontem [Omont] munitionem…quam tenebat Dodo frater Artoldi episcopi"[77], that in 945 "Hugo præsul" besieged "Altmontem castrum" which "Dodone" surrendered after seven weeks to obtain the return of "filium ipsius et filium fratris sui" and that Archbishop Hugues granted them "terram patrum suorum"[78], that in 947 "Ragenaldus comes et Dodo, frater ipsius præsulis [=Artald]" attacked castles built "citra Maternam fluvium" by "Heriveus nepos Herivei quondam archiepiscopi", during the course of which "Heriveus" was killed[79], and that in 949 "Dodo frater domni Artoldi episcopi" held "Altmontem munitionum"[80]m ---.  The name of Dodon's wife is not known.  Dodon & his wife had one child: 

a)         son (-after 945).  Flodoard's Annals record that in 943 "Hugo episcopus" besieged "Altmontem munitionem…quam tenebat Dodo frater Artoldi episcopi" and that "parvulo filio ipsius" was given to the archbishop as a hostage[81], and that in 945 "Hugo præsul" besieged "Altmontem castrum" which "Dodone" surrendered after seven weeks to obtain the return of "filium ipsius et filium fratris sui"[82], presumably referring to the same son of Dodo. 

2.         ARTAUD (-1 Oct 961).  Archbishop of Reims 931.  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records the succession of “Artoldum...ex cenobio sancti Remigii monachum[83].  Flodoard records in 931 that “Rodulfus rex cum Hugone et Bosone” besieged Reims, entered the town after three weeks, and ordained “præsulem Artoldum monachum ex cœnobio sancti Remigii[84].  He was expelled in 941: Flodoard records in 940 that “Artoldus præsul” abdicated and retired to “abbatia sancti Basoli et Avennaco monasterio[85].  Flodoard's Annals record that in 943 "rex Ludowicus" promised "Artoldus episcopus" to restore him at Reims and that, with "fratribus suis", all who had been expelled from the bishopric of Reims occupied "Altmontem castrum"[86].  Artaud was restored as archbishop in 947: Flodoard's Annals record that "947 Id Ian" a synod at Verdun confirmed "Artoldo" as archbishop of Reims[87].  Flodoard records in 961 the death “pridie Kal Oct” of “Artoldus Remensis archiepiscopus[88].  The Annales Remenses record the death in 961 of "domnus Artoldus" and the succession of "Odelricus archiepiscopus"[89].  The necrology of the church of Reims records the death "Kal Oct" of "dominus Artoldus archiepiscopus[90]

3.         son (-after 943).  Flodoard's Annals record that in 943 "Artoldus episcopus…fratribus suis", among those who had been expelled from the bishopric of Reims, occupied "Altmontem castrum"[91]m ---.  One child: 

a)         son .  Flodoard's Annals record that in 945 "Hugo præsul" besieged "Altmontem castrum" which "Dodone" surrendered after seven weeks to obtain the return of "filium ipsius et filium fratris sui" and that Archbishop Hugues granted them "terram patrum suorum"[92]

4.         [daughter .  As her son Manassès is named "nepote domni Artoldi præsulis" in Flodoard[93], it is assumed that his mother was the bishop´s sister, assuming that the word "nepos" can be interpreted in its strict sense of nephew.  The name of her husband is confirmed by the Chronicon Maceriense (a dubious source) which records in 941 that "Balthazar Registensis" made peace with Warin and requested the hand in marriage of "Guarino Ordelam" for "Manasse filio"[94], although “Balthazar” is unlikely to have been a name used at that time.  It can safely be assumed that it was not Bernard/Balthasar who was the brother of Archbishop Artaud as, if that had been the case, it is probable that the sources which have stated the fact.  m BERNARD [Balthasar] Comte de Rethel, son of --- (-after 945).] 

5.         [THIERRYEuropäische Stammtafeln refers to Thierry as the possible brother of Artaud and Dodo[95] but the primary source on which this is based has not yet been identified.] 

 

 

1.         OLRY [Udalric], son of HUGUES Comte de Chaumont & his wife Eva --- (-6 Nov 969).  The Historia S. Arnulfi Mettensis names "…Hugone comite Calvomontise et Eva uxore eius, Udelrico archiepiscopo Remense et Arnulpho comite, fratre eiusdem, filiis predicti Hugonis" among the donors to Metz St Arnulf[96].  "Eva comitissa et filius meus Udelricus…Remorum Archiepiscopus" donated "villam meam Layum…in comitatu Culvomontisse", granted to her by her husband as dower, to the abbey of Metz Saint-Arnoul, in memory of "conjugis mei Hugonis…comitis, filiique nostri…comitis Arnulphi", on the instigation of "Adelberonis Metensium episcopi meique consanguinei", by charter dated 16 Aug 950[97].  This document must be considered at least partially spurious in light of the date which predated the appointment of Eva´s son as archbishop by eight years.  "Udelricus filius Evæ comitissæ, de fortissimo Francorum germine procreatus, in primo teneræ ætatis meæ flore paterna fueram gratia privatus, materna…cum unico fratre…Arnulpho…contentus" confirmed the donation of "fiscum…villam nostram Laium in comitatu Calvomontinse sitam" to Metz Saint-Arnoul, naming "patre meo Hugone" and recording the death of his brother, by charter dated 21 Apr 958[98].  Abbé de Bouxières.  Archbishop of Reims 962.  Flodoard records in 962 the election of “Odelricum...clericum Hugonis...comitis filium” to “episcopatum Remensem” by papal legates, with the support of “Lothario rege cum regina matre...Brunone[99].  The Annales Remenses record the death in 961 of "domnus Artoldus" and the succession of "Odelricus archiepiscopus", adding that the latter donated "Vindenissam" [Venderesse][100].  The necrology of the church of Reims records the death "VIII Id Nov" of "domnus Odalricus archiepiscopus” and his donation of “Vindenissam[101]

 

 

1.         ADALBERO, son of GOZELON & his wife Uda --- (-23 Jan 989).  "Uda…comitissa" donated property "in pago Rizzigowi cui Egylolfus comes" to St Maximin at Trier "pro remedio…seniorique mei Gozlini necnon filiorum meorum Henrici…et Reginheri, Godefridi quoque et Adalberonis" by charter dated 18 May 963 witnessed by "Sigefrido comite, Richwino comite"[102].  Canon at Metz.  He was appointed Archbishop of Reims in 969.  The Annales Remenses record in 967 that, after the death of "Odalrico", "Adalbero archiepiscopus" was appointed[103].  The Annales Mosomagenses record the ordination in 969 of “Adalbero Remorum archiepiscopus[104].  He was appointed arch-chancellor of Lothaire King of the West Franks in 969.  However, after the king captured his brother Godefroi Comte de Verdun, Adalbero defied Lothaire, appointed his nephew Adalbero as bishop of Verdun without the king's permission, and was summoned to an assembly at Compiègne 11 May 985 on charges of treason, although the assembly was never held.  He was summoned again in Mar 987, postponed to May 987, and acquitted as Hugues "Capet" had assumed the presidency of the assembly following the accidental death of Louis V King of the West Franks[105].  The Annales Mosomagenses record the death in 989 of “Adalbero Remorum archiepiscopus[106].  The necrology of Reims records the death “X Kal Feb” of “domnus Adalbero archiepiscopus[107].  "Otto…Romanorum imperator augustus" confirmed the rights of "monasterio super fluvium Mose" founded by "Gotefridi comitis nostrique fidelis…et coniux sua pro anime sui fratris Alberonis" by charter dated 6 Apr 997[108].  "Heinricus…Romanorum imperator augustus" confirmed the rights and property of Kloster Mouzon donated by (among others) "dux Fredericus pro anima Ottonis…[et] Godefridus comes et coniux sua Mathildis pro anima sui fratris Adalberonis archiepiscopi" by charter dated 1023[109]

 

 

1.         ARNOUL, illegitimate son of [LOTHAIRE King of the Franks & his mistress ---] (before 967-5 Mar 1021, bur Reims Saint-Rémy).  The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines quotes contradictory sources concerning the paternity of Arnoul: "Guido", which names "Arnulfo Remorum archiepiscopo…frater…regis Lotharii sed non uterinus", and "Sigebertus", which names "Arnulfi regis Lotharii filius"[110].  The Historia Francorum Senonensis names "frater Hlotharii regis ex concubina, nomine Arnulfus" as Archbishop of Reims[111].  Richer names "Arnulfus Lotharii regis ex concubina filius" when recording that he offered his services to Hugues Capet in return for his appointment as archbishop of Reims[112].  In another passage, Richer records that "Karolum…cum uxore Adelaide et filio Ludovico, et filiabus duabus, quarum altera Gerberga, altera Adelaidis dicebatur, necnon et Arnulfo nepote" were imprisoned[113].  A letter of Gerbert names "Arnulfus regis Hlotharii, ut fama est, filius" when recording that he was appointed as archbishop of Reims[114].  There appears no way of resolving Arnoul's affiliation definitively.  A later rather than earlier birth appears consistent with his death in 1021, which would favour King Lothaire as his father (and his birth in [960/65]) rather than King Louis IV (which would place his birth before 954), although it is recognised that the difference is marginal if Arnoul was born towards the end of King Louis's life.  Arnoul supported the claim of Charles Duke of Lower Lotharingia to the French throne after the death of King Louis V.  However, after the death of Adalberon Archbishop of Reims in 988, Arnoul offered his services to Hugues Capet who arranged his election as Archbishop of Reims [end Mar] 989.  The Annales Remenses record 989 as "primus…annus Arnulfi archiepiscopi Remensis"[115].  The Annales Mosomagenses record the succession in 989 of “Arnulphus archiepiscopus” and his donations of “...in Flaveio et altare de Colredo in territorio Remensi et piscationem Cari fluminis” to the church of Mouzon[116].  He betrayed Hugues Capet and delivered Reims to Duke Charles in [Aug/Sep] 989.  At first pardoned by Hugues, he was captured and taken to Orléans.  He was deposed as archbishop 18 Jun 991 by the council of Saint-Basle de Verzy.  The Annales Remenses record in 995 that "Arnulfus archiepiscopus" was three years "in captione detentus Aurelianus" by "Hugone rege", that Pope Gregory sent legates to France to demand his release and restoration[117].  He was released by King Robert II and restored as archbishop in 998 and, as such, anointed Hugues, son of King Robert II, as king at Compiègne 9 Jun 1017[118].  The Annales Mosomagenses record the death in 1021 of “Arnulfus archiepiscopus[119].  His epitaph in Reims Saint-Rémy records “Arnulfus regali stemmate fusus, Remorum præsul[120].  The necrology of Reims records the death “III Non Mar” of “Arnulphus archiepiscopus[121]

 

 

1.         AGILBERT .  The Vitæ Romanorum Pontificum names “Silvester natione Aquitanus ex patre Agilberto” and records his papacy of four years, one month and eight days[122]m ---.  The name of Agilbert´s wife is not known.  Agilbert & his wife had one child: 

a)         GERBERT ([945]-12 May 1003, bur Rome).  Richer records that “Gerbertus” was “Aquitanus genere” and that he had been brought up “in cœnobio sancti...Geroldi” [in Aurillac], which he left “adolescens” under the care of “Borrellum citerioris Hispaniæ ducem” who consigned him to “Hattoni episcopo” [Bishop of Vich][123].  The same source continues by recording that Gerbert was taken to Rome, where he impressed the Pope, was introduced to “Ottoni regi Germaniæ et Italiæ”, and continued his education at Reims[124].  Rodulfus Glaber records that “Gerbertus” was “e Galliis oriundus...minorum...gerens prosapiam virorum[125].  The Breve Chronicon Auriliacensis Abbatiæ records that “Raimundus Caturcensis nobilis ex castro Saura...Abbas” educated “Gerlentium, adolescentem obscuro loco natum” who came to the attention of the emperor and became “Remis...Episcopum, deinde Ravennæ, postea in Summum Pontificem evexit[126].  Archbishop of Reims 991.  The Annales Sancti Dionysii Remenses record in 991 the appointment of "Gerberti Remorum archiepiscopi"[127].  The Annales Remenses record in 995 that Pope Gregory deposed "Gerbertum" who was "iniuste" occupying "sedem eius [=Arnulfus archiepiscopus]"[128].  He was named Archbishop of Ravenna by Emperor Otto III in Apr 998.  Rodulfus Glaber records “Gerbertum...Ravenne archiepiscopum[129].  He was nominated as Pope SYLVESTER II 2 Apr 999 by Emperor Otto III.  The Annales Remenses record in 999 that "levatus est domnus Gerbertus in apostolatum"[130].  The Annales Sancti Dionysii Remenses record 999 that "levatus est domnus Gerbertus archiepiscopus in apostolatum"[131].  His epitaph in Rome records that “Gerbertus...Francigena...obiit anno 1003 IV Id Mai[132]

 

 

1.         EBLES de Roucy, son of [GISELBERT Comte [de Roucy] & his wife ---] (-11 May 1033).  The Genealogiciæ Scriptoris Fusniacensis names "Lebaldus de Malla et…Iveta comitissa de Retest" as brother and sister of "Ebalus de Roceio"[133]Comte de Roucy 997.  Archbishop of Reims 1021.  The Gesta Episcoporum Cameracensium records that, after the death of “A. Remensium archiepiscopo”, “Azelinus Laudunensis” acclaimed “quendam laicum Ebulonem...antea suum secretarium” as the new archbishop and about whom the source is far from complementary[134].  The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the succession in 1023 as archbishop of Reims of "Ebalus qui fuit comes de Roseio"[135].  Moranvillé casts doubt on the co-identity of Ebles Comte de Roucy with Ebles Archbishop of Reims[136].  He deems significant that Alberic uses “Roseio” in the passage cited above, whereas in all other passages in which he refers to the Roucy family he uses “Roceio”.  He also cites two sources which report the appointment of the new archbishop but make no reference to his reported Roucy origin.  Firstly, a letter of Fulbert Bishop of Chartres addressed to Guy Bishop of Soissons dated 1021[137], and secondly Hariulf´s Chronicle of Saint-Riquier[138].  Both these sources refer only briefly to the archbishop, without any description of his background, so the absence of any reference in them to his antecedents would not be surprising.  As for the difference in spelling Roseio/Roceio, this could be explained by a simple mistake or transcription error.  In any case, no reference has been found to any “comte de Roussy/Rousy”, as opposed to Roucy, at that time.  It is correct that there are numerous examples of information in Alberic which are disproved by other primary sources.  However, they are far outnumbered by cases in which his information is corroborated, and are insufficient to conclude that Alberic´s uncorroborated statements should be dismissed unless there are strong indications that he is incorrect.  The Annales Mosomagenses record the death in 1033 of “Oebalus Remorum archiepiscopus[139].  The necrology of Reims records the death “V Id Mai” of “dominus Ebalus archiepiscopus” and his donation of “ecclesiam de Betignivilla[140]

1.         THOMAS de Beaumetz, son of GILLES Châtelain de Bapaume, Seigneur de Beaumetz & his wife Agnes de Coucy (-17 Feb 1263).  The Chronicle of Baudouin d´Avesnes records that "filia…domini Radulphi de Couchi Agnes" married "domino de Beaumés Egidio castellano de Bapalmes", by whom she had "quatuor…filios et filias…quorum primogenitus ex sorore domini Iacobi de Bailluel in Haynonia filios genuit et filias, secundus…Radulphus uxorem duxit dominam de Baudour relictam domini de Walaincourt et sine liberis mortuus est, tertius…Thomas clericus…et postea Remensis archiepiscopus, quartus Robertus cognomen habuit de Britannia, eo quod nutritus fuerat cum comite Britanniæ Petro"[223]Archbishop of Reims 1250.  The necrology of Reims records the death “XV Kal Mar” of “dominus Thomas de Bellomeso Remensis archiepiscopus” and his donation[224]

Chapter 2.    BISHOPS of AMIENS

 

 

The episcopal diocese of Amiens corresponded to the Roman civitas Ambianorum, which was part of the province of Belgica Secunda.  It was divided into the archdeaconries of Amiens (consisting of l’Amiénois and le Corbiois, with 14 deaconries) and Ponthieu (Ponthieu or Abbeville and le Vimeu, 12 deaconries)[231]

 

 

No indication has yet been found of the origin of Bishop Hilmerad.  As noted below, he was selected as bishop by Charles II “le Chauve” King of the West Franks.  No information has been found which throws light on any earlier ecclesiastical career: no reference has been found to a subscription by Hilmerad before he was appointed bishop.  The reservations expressed concerning his appointment by Archbishop Hincmar, which Loup Abbot of Ferrières attempted to dissuage, suggest that he had been chosen by the king not for his ecclesiastical dedication but for his support.  This suggests that he belonged to the highest level of West Frankish aristocracy, but was not necessarily a local Amiens man.  He was presumably related to “Hilmeradus comes palatii” whose death in Brittany in 851 is recorded in the Chronicon Fontanellensis[232].  Another possible family member is Elmerad [Hilmerad/Almerad] Bishop of Elna, son of Sunyer [II] Comte de Roussillon, whose death is recorded in 920 (see the document CATALONIA NOBILITY).  Bishop Hilmerad attended many of the church councils held during his episcopacy, presumably as one of the king´s supporters.  It is interesting to note that no reference has been found to Bishop Hilmerad in the major contemporary chronicles[233], which suggests that he may not have risen to the expectations of the king. 

 

1.         HILMERAD (-after [Aug/Sep] 871).  Bishop of Amiens Jun 849.  Loup Abbot of Ferrières recommended “Hilmeradus quem rex Ambianensium esse episcopum jussit” to Archbishop Hincmar, dated 849[234]...Hincmarus Remorum metropolitanus episcopus, Immo Noviomagi, Pardulus Lugduni, Rhothadus Suessionum, Hilmeradus Ambianorum, Erpoinus Silvanecti, Ermenfridus Belloacorum...” addressed “Nomenoio priori gentis Britannice” relating to the concile held in an unknown location [suggested as Anjou] in [Jul/Aug] 850[235]Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records the presence in 853 (“Hincmarus anno sui episcopatus VII”) at the synod at Soissons of “...Hilmerado Ambianense...[236].  “...Hilmeradus Ambianensis ecclesiæ episcopus...” subscribed the record of the concile held at Soissons in Apr 853[237].  The record of the concile held at Verberie 27 Aug 853 names “...Hilmeradus Ambianensium...episcopi[238].  “...Elmeradus Ambianensium ecclesiaæ episcopus...” subscribed the document recording the concile held at Bonneuil in Aug 855[239].  “...Hilmeradus Ambionensium episcopus...” subscribed the document which records the concile held at Tusey 22 Oct/7 Nov 860, among those marked “subscripsi”, rather than “consensi et subscripsi”, suggesting that the name may have been added later[240].  “...Helmerardus Ambianensis ecclesiæ ...” subscribed the document which records the concile held at Pîtres Jun 862[241].  “...Helmeradi episcopi...” subscribed the document which records the concile held at Verberie end-Oct 863[242]A charter dated 3 Dec 868 records the examination of "Willeberti presbyteri qui futurus erat Catalaunensis episcopus" by “Hincmaro diœcesis Remensium archiepiscopo, item Hincmaro Laudunensium episcopo, Hodone Belgivacorum episcopo, cum legatis Hrothadi, Erpoini, Hilmeradi, Raginelmi et Johannis eiusdem diœcesis coepiscoporum”, and states that he had been elected by “Hincmaro archiepiscopo et eius coepiscopis[243].  “...Hilmeradus Ambianensis episcopus...” subscribed the document which records the concile held at Verberie Apr 869[244].  “...Ex Remensi provincia: Actardus Morinensis episcopus, Erpoinus Silvanectensis episcopus, Hilmeradus Ambianensis episcopus vicario suo, Hincmarus Laudunensis episcopus, Odo Belvagensis episcopus, Ragenelmus Tornacensis episcopus, Johannes Camaracensis episcopus, Willebertus Catalaunensis episcopus, Hildebaldus Suessionensis...” subscribed the document which records the concile held at Attigny Jun/Jul 870[245].  “...Geroldus presbyter ad vicem domini et patris mei Helmeradi Ambianensis ecclesie episcopi...” subscribed the document which records the concile held at Douzy 5 Aug/6 Sep 871[246]

 

 

No indication has yet been found of the origin of Bishop Gerold.  The name Gerold was associated principally with the Grafen im Thurgau und im Zürichgau in the duchy of Swabia, who were members of the family of Hildegarde second wife of Charles I King of the West Franks (later Emperor Charlemagne), but no document has been identified which suggests that Bishop Gerold had a Swabian origin.  His deputising for Bishop Hilmerad in 871 indicates that he was a prominent member of the church of Amiens before his elevation to the episcopal see. 

 

1.         GEROLD (-25 Sep [877/93]).  ...Geroldus presbyter ad vicem domini et patris mei Helmeradi Ambianensis ecclesie episcopi...” subscribed the document which records the concile held at Douzy 5 Aug/6 Sep 871[247]Bishop of Amiens [871].  The necrology of Corvey records the death 25 Sep of Bishop Gerold[248]

 

 

No indication has yet been found of the origin of Bishop Otgar.  The name is relatively common, and also suggests a connection with Odaker/Otkar/Ottakar which is found relatively frequently in the Styria/Tirol area.  Several records have been identified which refer to other nobles and bishops named Otgar.  The Annales Lobienses record that "Otgario marchione" accompanied the widow of King Karlomann when she fled to her father Desiderio King of the Lombards after her husband died in 771[249].  An Otgar is recorded as archbishop of Mainz from 826 to 847, as bishop of Eichstätt from [847] to [880], and as bishop of Speyer from 962 to 970.  No relationship has been traced between any of these individuals. 

 

1.         OTGAR (-1 Aug 928).  Soyez states that Otgar was a canon at Saint-Quentin but he does not cite the primary source on which this information is based[250]Bishop of Amiens.  The precise date of his elevation to the bishopric has not been found.  A narrative of the excommunications pronounced against the murderers of Foulques Archbishop of Reims records the presence of “Heriveus...Remorum archiepisc...Wido Rotomagensium archiepiscopus, Riculfus Suessionum episcopus, Heidilo Noviomagensium episcopus, Dodilo Cameracensium episcopus, Helinandus Morinensium episcopus, Otgarius Ambianensium episcopus, Honoratus Belvacensium episcopus, Mancio Catalaunensium episcopus, Rodulfus Laudunensium episcopus, Otfridus Silvanectensium episcopus, Angelrannus Meldensium episcopus[251]Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ names “Riculfo Suessorum episcopo, Dodilone Cameracensi, Otgario Ambianensi, Mantione Catalaunensi, Rodulfo Laudunensi, Otfrido Silvanectensi” as present at the ordination of Hérivée Archbishop of Reims (dated to 901)[252].  Flodoard records in 928 the death of "Otgarius Ambianensium præsul”, adding that he was a centenarian (which seems unlikely for the time)[253].  The necrology of Corvey records the death “Kal Aug” of Bishop Otgar[254]

 

 

No indication has yet been found of the origin of Bishop Derold.  He is referred to as “medicus” by Flodoard, a rare example of a contemporary source which specifies an earlier profession followed by a bishop.  This suggests that Derold may not have belonged to the noble class.  No other references have been found to nobles named Derold. 

 

1.         DEROLD (-10 Apr [946/47]).  Bishop of Amiens 929.  Flodoard records in 929 that “Deroldus medicus” was appointed to "episcopatum Ambianensem[255].  Flodoard records in 946 the death of “Deroldus Ambianensium præsul[256]

 

 

No indication has yet been found of the origin of Bishop Thibaut.  He was installed by Hugues Archbishop of Reims, during the period between the archbishop´s expulsion from Reims and his deposition by Pope Agapet II in 948.  Bishop Thibaut was therefore a supporter of the Vermandois faction, and was possibly related in some way to the comital family.  No trace has been found of his fate after his expulsion from Amiens in 949. 

 

1.         THIBAUT [I] (-after 949).  Bishop of Amiens 947.  Flodoard´s Historia Remensis Ecclesiæ records that, after the death of “Deroldo Ambianensium presule”, “Tetbaldus...ecclesie Suessonice archidiaconus” was ordained by “Hugone Ambianis episcopus[257].  Flodoard records in 947 that “Hugo præsul annitente avunculo suo Hugone” [indicating Hugues Duc des Francs, maternal uncle of Hugues Archbishop of Reims] ordained “Ambianis episcopum Tetbaldum...æcclesiæ Suessonicæ clericum[258].  Flodoard records in 949 that “Ambianenses” expelled “Tetbaldum quem eis Hugo constituerat episcopum” and proposed “Ragembaldum...Atrabatensem...monachum” who was consecrated as bishop by Artaud Archbishop of Reims[259]same person as...?  THIBAUT [II] (-after 24 Sep 975).  Soyez assumes that Thibaut [II] was the same person as Thibaut [I][260], but confirmation has not been found that this is correct.  Bishop of Amiens .  The precise date of Thibaut´s appointment as bishop has not been ascertained.  Gallia Christiana names Bishop Thibaut as the nominee of “Hugone pseudoepiscopo Remensi”, which suggests that he was appointed after the expulsion of Bishop Ragembald in 950 (see above)[261].  However, no primary source is cited on which the statement is based and, if correct, it is surprising that his deposition only occurred 25 years later.  Adalberon Archbishop of Reims founded abbatia Mosomagensis by charter dated 972, subscribed by “Wido Suessionensis ecclesiæ episcopus, Hildricus Belvacensis ecclesiæ episcopus, Thebaldus Ambianensis episcopus, Haidulfus Noviomensis episcopus, Theudo Cameracensis episcopus, Adalbero Laudunensis episcopus, Gipuinus Catalaunensis episcopus, Constantius Silvanectensis episcopus, Liudulfus Tarvanensis episcopus...[262]Gallia Christiana records that, as the nominee of “Hugone pseudoepiscopo Remensi”, Bishop Thibaut was excommunicated VIII Kal Oct” 975 by “Stephano sedis apostolicæ legato et Adalberone Remensi archiepiscopo”, but does not cite the corresponding primary source[263]

 

 

No indication has yet been found of the origin of Bishop Ragembald.  His name suggests a connection with the Scandinavian Ragnvald, and also with the later Germanic Reinbold. 

 

1.         RAGEMBALD (-[after 950]).  According to Yepes, he was a monk at Saint-Vaast (no primary source cited on which the statement is based)[264].  In addition, Soyez states that he was abbot of Saint-Valéry but nor does he cite the primary source on which provides the basis for this information[265]Bishop of Amiens 949.  Flodoard records in 949 that “Ambianenses” expelled “Tetbaldum quem eis Hugo constituerat episcopum” and proposed “Ragembaldum...Atrabatensem...monachum” who was consecrated as bishop by Artaud Archbishop of Reims[266].  Flodoard records in 950 that “Hugo” [Hugues ex-archbishop of Reims] entered “Ambianensem...urbem” and was received “in turri quam Ragembaldus episcopus tenebat[267], suggesting but not stating explicitly that Bishop Ragembald was deposed at that time.  No subsequent reference has been found to a bishop of Amiens until Thibaut [II] in 972 (see below). 

 

 

No indication has yet been found of the origin of Bishop Alvian. 

 

1.         [ALVIAN (-[980]).  Gallia Christiana names “Almannus seu Alvianus aut Almarus” as successor of Bishop Thibaut and predecessor of Bishop Gottesman, but provides no information on his bishopric except his name[268].  Soyez comments that “nous ne conaissons de ce prélat rien autre chose que son nom inscrit sur toutes nos listes épiscopales et la date de sa mort[269].  It is not known whether the information contained in the old bishop lists were based on primary source material which has since disappeared.  There is no way of knowing, therefore, whether Bishop Alvian existed or not.] 

 

 

Bishop Gottesmann´s name is obviously Germanic.  As noted below, Gallia Christiana states that he was nepos of Lothaire King of the West Franks and consanguineus of Bruno Bishop of Langres and of Arnoul Archbishop of Reims.  The primary source on which this statement is based has not yet been identified, and the precise family connection not yet ascertained.  Arnoul Archbishop of Reims was the illegitimate son (most probably) of King Lothaire and Bishop Bruno was the son of King Lothaire´s uterine half-sister, Alberade daughter of Giselbert Duke of Lotharingia and his wife Gerberga of Germany.  The common link for consanguinity is therefore Alberade´s mother, Gerberga who was the daughter of Heinrich I King of Germany and his second wife Mathilde from the Immedinger family.  As can be seen, if Gottesmann´s consanguineous relationship with the archbishop and the bishop is correct, his “nepos” relationship with King Lothaire must have been remote.  The family of Heinrich I King of Germany is reasonably well defined.  The more likely possibility, therefore, is that Bishop Gottesmann was descended from the Immedinger family of Queen Mathilde, possibly a descendant of one of her three known sisters, the first of which was ancestor of the Graven von Teisterbant (see the document HOLLAND & FRISIA), the second of a branch of the family of the Billung dukes of Saxony (see SAXONY, DUKES & ELECTORS), or the third whose descendants are not known precisely.  As can be seen, the number of possibilities is too great to speculate meaningfully about Gottesmann´s precise family background. 

 

1.         GOTTESMANN (-[991/93]).  Bishop of Amiens [after 975].  Gallia Christiana records the succession of Gottesmann “Lothari IV Ludovici Transmarini filii…nepos, Brunonis episcopi Lingonensis et Arnulfi Remensis archiepiscopi consanguineus”, but does not cite the primary source which confirms this family relationship[270].  The circumstances and precise date of his appointment have not been ascertained.  "...Adalberonis Remensis archiepiscopi, Sevini Senonensis archiepiscopi, Daimberti Bituricensis archiepiscopi, Widonis Suessionensis episcopi, Gibuini Catalaunensis episcopi, Lisiardi Parisiensis episcopi, Godesmanni Ambianensis episcopi, Adalberonis Laudunensis episcopi, Herennei Belvacensi episcopi..." subscribed the charter dated 987 under which Hugues King of France issued orders at the request of “Mangaudus ex monasterio Corbeiæ[271]The necrology of Corvey records the death “VII Id Jan” of “Godemannus episcopus Ambianensis nostræ congregationis[272]

 

 

Bishop Foulques was related to the comtes d´Amiens, although there is some doubt about his precise relationship to the family.  He presumably owed his appointment to their local influence.  Bishop Foulques was succeeded by his own nepos, also named Foulques. 

 

Two brothers: 

1.         FOULQUES, son of [GAUTHIER [I] Comte d´Amiens & his second wife Adela ---] (-[1030])Bishop of Amiens [993].  According to Gallia Christiana, Bishop Foulques was “Galterii comitis Ambianorum...ex Aleide Crespeia natu minor” (no primary source cited)[273].  “...Fulco Ambianensis episcopus...” subscribed the charter dated to [1008] under which Robert II King of France confirmed donations to Saint-Denis[274].  Bishop Foulques is recorded among those present at the coronation of Henri, son of Robert II King of France, in 1027[275].  The Gesta Episcoporum Cameracensium records that “Gerardus...Cameracensium coepiscopus” wrote to ”Domino Ambianensium episcopo Fulconi[276]

2.         GAUTHIER [II] Comte d´Amiens et du Vexinm ADELA, daughter of ---.  Children: 

a)         [FOULQUES de Mantes (-1058).  According to Gallia Christiana, Bishop Foulques was “nepos” of his predecessor (no primary source cited)[277]Bishop of Amiens [1030].  Orderic Vitalis names Foulques as third son of Dreux Comte de Mantes and his wife Godgifu of England and specifies that he was Bishop of Amiens[278].  Foulques Bishop of Amiens is named in charters from early in the reign of Henri King of France.  It is difficult to determine which of these charters may relate to his predecessor, also named Foulques. However, if they relate to Bishop Foulques who died in 1058 it is unlikely that Orderic Vitalis was correct about his parentage.  It is possible, therefore, that Bishop Foulques was the brother of Dreux Comte de Mantes not his son.]  "Widonis archiepiscopi, Beroldi episcopi, Gibuini episcopi, Fulconis episcopi, Drogonis episcopi, Frotlandi episcopi, Hetzelini episcopi, Balduini episcopi..." subscribed the charter dated 1047 which records donations to Soissons-Saint-Médard made by "Hugo", for the souls of “patris sui Rainoldi...et fratris sui...Alberti[279]Henri I King of France granted privileges to Amiens, with the consent of “Fulcone Ambianensi et Gualtero comite”, by charter dated 1057[280].

 

 

1.         GUY [de Ponthieu], son of ENGUERRAND Comte [de Ponthieu] & his wife Aleida [van Westfriesland] (-1074).  The Chronicon Hariulfi records that “Guidonem...comitis germanum Hugonis, comitis Widonis patruum” succeeded “Fulconis” as bishop of Amiens[281].  Archdeacon of Amiens Notre-Dame.  Bishop of Amiens 1058.  ...Episcopis Heidone Suessionensi, Rogero Catalaunensi, Elinando Laudunensi, Balduino Noviomensi, Frollando Silvanectensi, Letberto Cameracensi, Guidone Ambianensi...” are named as present at the consecration of Philippe I King of France dated 22 May 1059[282].  “Gervasii Remorum archiepiscopi, Balduini Noviomensis episcopi, Widonis Ambianensis episcopi, Widonis Belvacensis episcopi...” subscribed the charter dated 1065, after 4 Aug, confirmed the restoration of property to Hasnon monastery by “Balduinus filius Balduini Philippi regis Francorum procuratoris et bajuli[283].  “...Mainardi archiepiscopi Senonensis, Gaubertus cujus beneficium est, Rainaldi Pagani fratris eius, Witdonis fratris eorum...Gaufredi episcopi Parisiacensis ecclesiæ...Stephanus, Rainaldus filii eius et filia Lætvis, Adherici episcopi Aurelianensis ecclesiæ, Widonis episcopi Ambianensis ecclesiæ, Hugonis Nivernensis ecclesiæ episcopi...” subscribed the charter dated 26 Jan 1065 under which Philippe I King of France confirmed the donation of “ecclesiam...sancte...Marie...super fluvium Lupe in pago Wastinensi, Kadelatam” made by “Gausbertus miles” to Saint-Benoît-sur-Loire, for the souls of “patris mei...Hatonis...meæ genetricis...Erdeburgis...filiorum meorum et filiarum[284].  “Balduini Noviomensi episcopi, Widonis Ambianensis episcopi, Drogonis Taruennensis episcopi...” subscribed the charter dated 1066, after 4 Aug, under which Baudouin V Count of Flanders donated property to the church of Lille Saint-Pierre[285]He was the probable author of the poem Carmen, written in [1067], which commemorates the campaign of Guillaume II Duke of Normandy to conquer England[286]Richerus Senonensis archiepiscopus, Gaufridus Parisius episcopus, Guido Anbianensis episcopus, Gaulterus Meldensis episcopus, Hugo Trecensis episcopus, Roger Cathalaunensis episcopus, Agolandus idem Ivo Saxensis episcopus...” subscribed the charter dated 29 May 1067 under which Philippe I King of France donated the abbey of Orléans Saint-Sanson to Saint-Martin-des-Champs[287].  “Richerii archiepiscopi Senonensis, Gauffridi Parisiensis episcopi, Wauterii episcopi Meldensis, Hugonis Trecensis episcopi...Manassedis Remensis archiepiscopi, Widonis Ambianensis episcopi, Widonis Belvacensis episcopi, Elinandi Laudunensis episcopi, Rogerii Catalaunensis episcopi, Rabbodi Noviomensis episcopi...” subscribed the charter dated 2 Nov 1071 under which Philippe I King of France confirmed the grant by Bouchard Comte de Corbeil of privileges to Corbeil Saint-Spire[288]

 

 

The origin of Bishop Foulques has not been identified.  However, the subscription by Foulques, the only bishop who is named, of the charter relating to donations to a new monastery in Poitiers suggests that he must have been closely connected either with the town or the family of the dukes of Aquitaine/comtes de Poitou. 

 

1.         FOULQUES [II] (-[1076/78]).  Bishop of Amiens [1075].  ...Fulconis in Ambianensem episcopatum tunc electi non adhuc consecrati...” subscribed the charter dated 14 Oct 1076 under which Philippe I King of France confirmed the donations made to the monastery of Chasseignes near Poitiers by Guillaume VIII Duke of Aquitaine[289]

 

 

1.         RAOUL (-after 1081).  Bishop of Amiens [1078].  Soyez records that Raoul was installed as bishop by the bishops of Laon and Soissons, without authorisation from the archbishop of Reims, and abdicated in 1081 before he was deposed (no primary source cited on which the information is based)[290]

Rorigonis episcopi et matris mea” to Beauvais Saint-Lucien by undated charter[294]

 

 

Bishop Gervin belonged to a family from Laon which can be reconstructed as follows from the Chronique de Saint-Riquier. 

 

1.         GUILLANCEm ROMILDE, daughter of ---.  The Chronique de Saint Riquier records that "Gervin né à Laon et fils de Guillence et de Romilde" when recording that he was brought up at Reims Sainte-Marie, became chaplain of Richard abbé de Verdun, and was later appointed abbot of Saint-Riquier[295].  Guillance & his wife had four children: 

a)         --- .  The Chronique de Saint Riquier records that "Gervin" became a monk after the death of his parents “se voyant le chef de sa famille qui était illustre[296].  No other information has been found concerning the brother of Gervin who succeeded his father. 

b)         GERVIN (-Saint-Riquier 3 Mar 1075, bur Saint-Riquier).  The Chronique de Saint Riquier records that "Gervin né à Laon et fils de Guillence et de Romilde" when recording that he was brought up at Reims Sainte-Marie, became chaplain of Richard abbé de Verdun, and was later appointed abbot of Saint-Riquier[297].  Abbot of Saint-Riquer 25 Mar [1045].  The Chronique de Saint Riquier records the death "V Non Mar" 1074 of “Gervin” and his burial at Saint-Riquier[298]

c)         ROSCELINE .  The Chronique de Saint Riquier records that "Gervin" had two sisters “qui avaient été confiées à sa tutelle”, one named “Rotseline” whose marriage he arranged to “un chevalier...Haymon” while the other became a nun[299]m AIMON, son of ---.  Aimon & his wife had two children: 

i)          GERVIN (Laon ---- -Marmoutiers 25 Feb 1104).  Gallia Christiana namesHaimundo et Roscelina soror Gervini abbatis Centulensis” as the parents of Bishop Gervin, adding that he was installed as abbot of Saint-Richer by his maternal uncle, but does not cite the corresponding primary sources[300]The Chronique de Saint Riquier records that "Gervin" proposed “son neveu Gervin” as his successor and that he was installed as abbot of Saint-Riquier “X Kal Nov” 1071[301].  The Chronique de Saint Riquier records the appointment of "Gervin" as bishop of Amiens[302]Bishop of Amiens"Hugo...Suessionensis episcopus" confirmed the property of “monasterio S. Theobaldi juxta Basilicas sito” by charter dated 1093, subscribed by “Hugonis episcopi tunc temporis decaniam et cancellariam in manu sua tenentis...Rainaldi Remorum archiepiscopi, Elinandi Laudunensium episcopi, Fulconis Belvacensium episcopi, Gervini Ambianensium episcopi, Ratbodi Noviomensium episcopi, Girardi Morinorum episcopi...[303].  "Gervinus...Ambianensium episcopus" founded a monastery at “villa infra meum episcopatum...Bertolcurtis...in loco...Pratum” by charter dated 5 Nov 1095[304]"Gervinus...Ambianensis ecclesie presul" confirmed the donation of “altare ville...Arguvium” to Amiens Notre-Dame by charter dated to [1091/1102][305].  After accusations of simony, he abdicated in 1100 and became a monk at Marmoutiers.  The necrology of Amiens records the death “V Kal Mar” of “Gervini episcopi hujus ecclesie” and his donation of “altare de Stella[306]

Two siblings: 

1.         GODEFROI, son of FRODON & his wife Elisabeth --- ([1066]-8 Nov 1115, bur Soissons Saint-Crispin).  Soyez records that Godefroi was “d´extraction noble” and third son of “Frodon [qui] possédait la terre de Molincourt ou Monticourt dans le Soissonais, sa mère...Elisabeth”, adding that he entered Mont-Saint-Quentin aged five and ordained in 1092 at the age of 25 (no primary sources cited on which the information is based)[309]Bishop of Amiens [1105].  “Godefridus...Ambianensis ecclesie episcopus” confirmed the donations of “dimidium altare de Sanctis...dimidium altare de Amelli...parrochialem ecclesiam sancte Mariæ de Botva...” to Saint-Fuscien made by “Ingelrannus comes” by charter dated 24 Mar [1105/06][310].  “G[odefridus]...Ambianensis ecclesie episcopus” confirmed various donations made to monks of Molesmes at Bagneux, including those made by “Gervinum predecessorem nostrum...ecclesiam...in villa...Balneolus”, by charter dated 21 Jul 1106[311].  "Godefridus...Ambianensis episcopus" donated “ecclesiam Torsincurtis” to Amiens Notre-Dame by charter dated 1109[312].  “Godefridus...Ambianensis episcopus” confirmed the donations of “ecclesiam...Belleville...Leisin...Vaccareia...Caisneiolum” to Hesdin monastery by charter dated to [Apr 1111/Mar 1112][313]

2.         --- .  m ---.  One child: 

a)         ROHARDGallia Christiana records that “Rohardus S Godefridi Ambianensis episcopi nepos” succeeded Bernard as deacon of Soissons in 1139[314]

 

 

Gallia Christiana records “de Ambianis cognominatur Ingelrannus” in a charter dated 1124 for Amiens Saint-Jean and says that “from this it can be concluded that he was from the family of the counts of châtelains of Amiens[315].  Soyez builds on this by stating that Bishop Enguerrand was the son of “le seigneur de Boves...Enguerrand[316].  From a chronological point of view, assuming that this affiliation is correct the bishop´s father would have been Enguerrand [I] de Boves Comte d´Amiens (see the document NORTHERN FRANCE NOBILITY).  While the name is characteristic of the Boves/Coucy family, no primary source has been identified which confirms that this suggested affiliation is correct.  Indeed, no primary source has been found which gives any indication of the family background of Bishop Enguerrand. 

 

1.         ENGUERRAND (-11 May [1127]).  Archdeacon of Amiens.  Bishop of Amiens [1115].  "Ingelrannus...Ambianensis episcopus" confirmed “altare de Ciconiis” to “cœnobii montis sancti Quintini Peronæ” by charter dated 1116[317]The dating clause of a charter dated 1 Aug 1121 refers to “Ludovico regnante, Ingelranno episcopante, Karolo consule[318].  Ingelrannus...Ambianensis ecclesie...episcopus, Guarinus...archidiaconus, Rogerus decanus, Symon prepositus et archidiaconus” confirmed their privileges relating to “castello Balgenci”, with the consent of “Radulpho de Balgenci”, by charter dated to before 1127[319].  The necrology of Amiens records the death “V Id Mai” of “Ingeranni episcopi hujus ecclesie” and his donation of “altare de Creissi[320]

 

 

Soyez states that Bishop Warin “appartenait à la noble famille de Châtillon...sur-Marne” but he makes no suggestion about his precise affiliation[321]Gallia Christiana takes the same position when it records the abdication in 1144 of “Guarinus de Chastillon S. Pol episcopus Ambianensis” (no primary source cited)[322].  No primary source has been identified which gives any clue about Warin´s family background. 

 

1.         WARIN, son of --- (-[1153], bur Cluny).  Archdeacon of Amiens.  “Ingelrannus...Ambianensis ecclesie...episcopus, Guarinus...archidiaconus, Rogerus decanus, Symon prepositus et archidiaconus” confirmed their privileges relating to “castello Balgenci”, with the consent of “Radulpho de Balgenci”, by charter dated to before 1127[323].  Bishop of Amiens 1127.  "Warinus...præsul et totius reipublicæ Ambianensium procurator" confirmed the foundation of Selincourt abbey by charter dated 19 Jun 1131[324]Guarinus...Ambianensis episcopus” confirmed a donation to Amiens made by “Nicholaus Maineri filius” by charter dated 1145[325].  He abdicated in 1145 and became a monk at Cluny. 

 

 

Gallia Christiana states that Bishop Thierry was “ex monacho S. Nicolai” and served as “abbas sancti Eligii Noviomensis” [abbot of Noyon Saint-Eloy] before being appointed bishop of Amiens (no primary source cited)[326].  No primary source has been identified which gives any clue about Thierry´s family background and his name is too common to make speculation useful. 

 

1.         THIERRY (-Nov 1164).  Bishop of Amiens 1145.  “Theodericus...Ambianensis episcopus” confirmed the rights of “ecclesia sancti Aceoli et ecclesia sancti Martini” by charter dated 1145[327].  "Theodericus...Ambianensis episcopus" confirmed the properties of Montdesiré abbey by charter dated to [1146][328]The Nicolai Ambianensis Continuatio of Sigebert's Chronica records the appointment in 1152 of “Theodoricus Ambianensis episcopus[329]

 

 

Soyez calls Bishop Robert “Robert de Camera” but provides no explanation for this name[330]Gallia Christiana makes no comment on his family background[331].  No primary source has been identified which gives any clue about the origin of Bishop Robert. 

 

1.         ROBERT (-18 Apr [1165/69]).  Bishop of Amiens .  “Robertus...Ambianensis episcopus” confirmed “vicecomitatus de Ver, de Saleu, de Mes quem Hugo de Saluel...tenebat” by charter dated to [1165/69], witnessed by “...Ricardus de Gerberroi...[332]The necrology of Amiens records the death “XIV Kal Mai” of “Roberti episcopi hujus ecclesie” and the donation for his anniversary[333]

 

 

According to Gallia Christiana, Bishop Thibaut was “Radulfi archidiaconi Pontivensis germanus” and “alteriusque Radulfi decani ex fratre nepos”, as well as distantly related (“cognationis vinculo”) to Guillaume de Champagne Archbishop of Reims[334].  It cites no primary source which provides the basis for these statements, and no such primary source has yet been identified. 

 

1.         THIBAUT [III] d´Heilly, son of --- (-30 Apr 1205, bur Amiens).  Archdeacon of Amiens.  “Domnus Theobaldus episcopus tunc temporis archidiaconus...” subscribed a charter dated 1167 which confirmed a donation to Amiens[335].  Bishop of Amiens 1169.  "Theobaldus...Ambianensium dictus episcopus" confirmed the “fraternitatis...beati Nicolai” by charter dated 1175[336].  Durand records that Bishop Thibaut supervised the transfer of the relics of Saint-Firmin to Amiens cathedral 16 Oct 1204[337].  The necrology of Amiens records the death “pridie Kal Mai” of “Theobaldi episcopi hujus ecclesie” and his donation of “altelagia de Chessoi, de Louecort, de Tilloloi, de Booucort[338].  Assuming that this date is correct, the chronology of the documents in which he and his successor are named shows that Bishop Thibaut must have abdicated earlier. 

 

 

Although the necrology of Amiens names the parents of Bishop Richard, their precise relationship to the main Gerberoy family has not been ascertained. 

 

1.         RICHARD de Gerberoy, son of EUSTACHE de Gerberoy & his wife Ermentrude --- (-14 May [1210/11], bur Saint-Martin-aux-Jumeaux, Amiens).  His parentage is confirmed by the necrology of Amiens which records the death “Id Mai” of “Eustachii militis patris Ricardi de Gerborredo episcopi huius ecclesie” and the donation made by his son in his memory, the death “XV Kal Jun” of “Adele avie et alumpne Ricardi de Gerborredo episcopi huj ecclesie et Ermentrudis filie sue matris eiusdem Ricardi epi” (and his donation for her), and the death “XIV Kal Jun” of “Gervasi et Guillermi fratrum et militum” for whom “Ricardus de Gerborredo episcopus huj ecclesie nepos eorum” donated property[339].  [“Robertus...Ambianensis episcopus” confirmed “vicecomitatus de Ver, de Saleu, de Mes quem Hugo de Saluel...tenebat” by charter dated to [1165/69], witnessed by “...Ricardus de Gerberroi...[340].  It is not known whether the witness was the same person as the later bishop.]  Canon at Amiens. A charter dated 1184 names “Ricardus de Gerborredo concanonicus noster[341].  Deacon at Amiens.  “Ricardus...Ambianensis decanus” confirmed rights in “Creissi” by charter dated 1191[342]Bishop of Amiens 1205.  Pope Innocent III ordered an enquiry into the election of Richard de Gerberoy, because of his ill-health, dated 2 Mar [1205][343].  The enquiry presumably found in Richard´s favour, although no record survives of the outcome.  “Ricardus...Ambianensis episcopus” confirmed the donation of “decima totius territorii de Belsar” by charter dated 20 Mar 1205 (O.S.)[344].  “Ricardus...Ambianensis episcopus” confirmed rights in “agricultura territorii de Matricort” by charter dated Apr 1209[345].  “Ricardus...Ambianensis episcopus” confirmed rights in “nemore de Cresci” by charter dated May 1210[346].  The necrology of Amiens records the death “pridie Id Mai” of “Ricardi...hujus ecclesie episcop viri litterati, liberalis et constantissimi” and the donation made for his anniversary[347]An epitaph in the church of Saint-Martin-aux-Jumeaux, Amiens records the burial of “præsul Ricardus[348]

 

 

1.         EVERARD, son of --- (-Nov 1222, bur Amiens).  [A charter dated 1184 is witnessed by “...Evrardo de Foilloi...subdiaconibus[349].  It is unclear whether Deacon Everard de Fouilloy was the same person as the future Bishop Everard.]  “A...Remensis archiepiscopus” distributed tasks “vacante sede Ambianensis ecclesie” by charter dated May 1211[350]Bishop of Amiens [1212].  “Evrardus...Ambianensis ecclesie minister” made an agreement with “Johannem de Tois militem” concerning rights “in territorio de Tois” by charter dated 1212[351]

 

 

1.         GEOFFROY Le Wallech, son of --- (-25 Nov 1236).  Bishop of Amiens .  The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the death in 1238 of “episcopus Ambiensis” and the succession of “magister Arnulfus[352].

 

 

1.         ARNOUL, son of --- & his wife Elisabeth --- (-[Jun] 1247), bur Amiens).  Durand records that Bishop Arnoul was the son of Elisabeth, wife of Roger de Fournival doctor to King Philippe II and King Louis VIII, by her first husband whose name is not known[353]: the necrology of Amiens records the death “XIV Kal Feb” of “Elizabeth de Petra matris...episcopi Amb. Arnulphi et magistri Rogeri de Furnivalle” and the donation made by her son in her memory[354]Bishop of Amiens 1236.  The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the death in 1238 of “episcopus Ambiensis” and the succession of “magister Arnulfus[355]

 

 

 

 

Chapter 3.    BISHOPS of ARRAS

 

 

The diocesis of Arras was located south of the territory of the bishopric of Thérouanne and north-east of Amiens, centred on the town of Arras.  It was divided into the archdeaconries of Arras (or Artois) and Ostrevant[356].  Founded by Saint-Vaast in the early 6th century, the bishops of Arras were appointed to a new diocese of Cambrai in the late 6th century.  Cambrai soon evolved as the main bishopric of the two, a situation which persisted until the death of Gerard Bishop of Cambrai in 1092 after which the two bishoprics separated.  The town of Arras was dominated by the abbey of Saint-Vaast, the avoués of which (the Béthune family, see the document FLANDERS NOBILITY) played a prominent role in local politics.  The revival of the bishopric of Arras is dated to 1094, and Pope Pascal II confirmed the autonomy of the diocesis by bull dated 2 Dec 1115[357].  The circumstances of the split between the two bishoprics are described in detail in the Gesta Episcoporum Cameracensium (Continuatio)[358]

 

 

The letter from the canons of Arras to Pope Urban II confirmed the choice of “Lambert de Guines” as the appointee to the see of Arras[359].  No connection between Bishop Lambert and the comital family of Guines has been found.  It is probable that he adopted his name merely from his town of origin.  No information has been found on his ecclesiastical career prior to his appointment as bishop. 

 

1.         LAMBERT (-1115).  The Gesta Episcoporum Cameracensium (Continuatio) records the disputes which arose following the death of Gerard Bishop of Cambrai, when the town of Cambrai chose “Francigenam...Manassen” whereupon the canons appointed “prepositum...Mascelinum”, while the inhabitants of Arras appointed “episcopum...Lambertum[360]Bishop of Arras .  The Annales Cameracenses record the death "XVII Kal Jun" of "Lambertus episcopus Atrebati"[361].  The Continuatio Praemonstratensis of Sigebert's Chronica records the death in 1115 of “Lambertus...Atrebatensis episcopus” and the succession of “Robertus[362]

 

 

According to Fanien, Bishop Robert was “originaire d´Arras” but he cites no primary source on which this information is based[363].  Robert is a name closely associated with the Béthune family who held the avouerie of Saint-Vaast/Arras, but no precise connection with Bishop Robert can be identified.  No information has been found on his ecclesiastical career prior to his appointment as bishop. 

 

1.         ROBERT (-1131).  Bishop of Arras 1115.  The Continuatio Praemonstratensis of Sigebert's Chronica records the death in 1115 of “Lambertus...Atrebatensis episcopus” and the succession of “Robertus[364].  "Robertus...Attrebatensis episcopus" donated “altaria...Anesin, Werkin, Salomes, Hautay” to Saint-Bertin by charter dated 1123[365].  The Continuatio of Sigebert's Chronica from Anchin records in 1131, after the death of "domno Roberto Atrebatensi episcopo”, the succession of “domnus Alvisus Aquicinensis æcclesiæ sextus abbas” as bishop[366].  The Annales Aquicinctini record the death in 1133 of "Robertus episcopus Atrebatensis" and the succession of "domnus Alvisus…noster sextus abbas"[367]

 

 

Fanien records that Bishop Alvise was born “dans l’ancien diocèse de Thérouanne”, was educated at the abbey of Saint-Bertin, and became abbot of Anchin[368].  As noted below, Odon de Deuil notes that Alvise had been a monk at Saint-Bertin. 

 

1.         ALVISE (-Philippopolis 6 Sep 1148, bur Philippopolis St George).  Bishop of Arras 1131.  The Continuatio of Sigebert's Chronica from Anchin records in 1131, after the death of "domno Roberto Atrebatensi episcopo”, the succession of “domnus Alvisus Aquicinensis æcclesiæ sextus abbas” as bishop[369].  Odon de Deuil records the circumstances in which "Alvise d´Arras, Barthélemi le chancelier, Archambaud de Bourbon" were sent in advance of the main crusading army towards Constantinople in 1147[370].  The Continuatio Praemonstratensis of Sigebert's Chronica records in 1148 the death of “Alvisus Atrebatensis episcopus...apud Philippopolim[371].  Odon de Deuil records the death "à Philippopolis…VIII Id Sep" of "Alvise…évêque d´Arras", noting that he had been a monk at Saint-Bertin, and his burial "hors de la ville…dans l´église de Saint-George"[372]

 

 

Fanien states that Bishop Godeschalk was “originaire d´une famille riche de Brabant et ancien abbé du mont Saint-Martin de Laon”, but he does not cite the primary sources on which this information is based[373].  His name suggests that he may have been related to the individuals named Godeschalk who are recorded at Saint-Bertin.  The cartulaire of Saint-Bertin records that, after the death of "Leone abbate", the election of “Arnoldus abbas Affligensis in Brabantia”  was blocked by the bishop of Cambrai, and “in abbatem Hamensem Godescalcum” was appointed in 1160, adding that “a puero hic monachus effectus”, that “in annis juvenilibus” he was appointed “apud Alchiacum...prior”, later after returning to Saint-Bertin he “ministerium hospitarii administrans”, after which he was elected “in abbatem Hamensem[374].  The Chronica Andrensis records the death in 1176 of "Godescalcus abbas Sancti Bertini[375]

 

1.         GODESCHALK (-1172).  Bishop of Arras [1150/51].  The Continuatio Praemonstratensis of Sigebert's Chronica records the appointment in 1151 of “Godescalcus [abbas] monte sancti Martini” as bishop of Arras[376].  He abdicated in [1160].  The Chronica Andrensis records the death in 1172 of "Godeschalcus quondam Attrebatensis episcopus[377]

1.         ROBERT (-murdered [1172/74]).  Fanien states that Bishop Robert had been “chancelier du comté de Flandre” and was murdered soon after his appointment as bishop, but he does not cite the primary sources on which this information is based[379]Bishop of Arras 1173.  The Continuatio Aquicinctina of Sigebert's Chronica records the death in 1173 of "Andreas Attrebatensis episcopus” and the succession of “Robertus Ariensis prepositus”, in 1174 the selection of the latter (“industria Philippi comitis ac potestate”) as bishop of Cambrai to succeed “Petrus Cameracensis electus frater Philippi comitis Flandrie”, and the succession “in episcopatu...Atrebatensi” of “Frumaldus arcidiaconus, ipso Roberto annitente[380].

 

 

1.         FRUMALD (-19 Apr [1194], bur Arras).  Fanien states that Bishop Frumald had been “archidiacre d´Ostrevent”, but he does not cite the primary sources on which this information is based[381]Bishop of Arras 1174.  The Continuatio Aquicinctina of Sigebert's Chronica records the selection in 1174 of “Robertus Attrebatensium electus” (“industria Philippi comitis ac potestate”) as bishop of Cambrai to succeed “Petrus Cameracensis electus frater Philippi comitis Flandrie”, and the succession “in episcopatu...Atrebatensi” of “Frumaldus arcidiaconus, ipso Roberto annitente[382]

[Four] siblings.  They may have been of Danish origin and based in Frisia, if the speculation about the origin of Reginlind, wife of Theoderich, is correct, as she is referred to as "Danorum Fresonumque germine procreatam" (see below). 

 

1.         BOVO [II] (-947).  Bishop of Châlons [917].  The charter of "Karolus…rex" dated "917 VII Kal Aug" refers to "nostra uxor Frideruna…frater eius Bovo Catalannensis Antistes Ecclesiæ"[668].  Flodoard records in 931 that “[Rodulfus] rex” captured “Bovonem...Catalaunensem episcopum”, who had deserted to “Heriberto”, and granted “episcopatum ipsius” to “Miloni clerico[669].  Flodoard records in 932 that “Rodulfus rex” was reconciled with “Bovonem episcopum” and returned “Catalaunense...episcopium” to him[670].  Flodoard records in 947 the death of “Bovo Catalaunensis episcopus” and the election by “sibi Catalaunenses” of “nobilem adolescentem clericum...Gibuinum[671]

2.         [REGINLIND (-11 May ----).  The wife of Theoderich is named "Reinhildam, Danorum Fresonumque germine procreatam" in the Vita Mathildis Reginæ[672].  According to Europäische Stammtafeln[673], she was Reinhild, daughter of Gotfrid the Dane & his wife Gisela [Carolingian], which is presumably a guess based on this description in the Vita Mathildis.  However, the chronology for this hypothesis is not ideal.  Regino records the marriage in 882 of "Gisla filia Hlotharii" and "rex Godofridus Nordmannorum"[674].  If this couple's daughter was the mother of Queen Mathilde, the latter's estimated birth date would need to be pushed forward by several years, which makes the chronology for her known descendants tight.  Another possibility is that Regenhild was an otherwise unrecorded sister of Bovo Bishop of Chalons.  This hypothesis would explain (1) the name Frederuna being transmitted to Reginlind's daughter, and (2) Berenger Bishop of Cambrai, recorded elsewhere as nepos of Queen Frederuna, being described as "…Ottonis imperatoris proxime consanguineus" in the Gesta Episcoporum Cameracensium[675].  If this is correct, the reference to Reginlind being "Danorum Fresonumque germine procreatam" has not been explained.  m ([900]) THEODERICH, son of --- & his wife Mathilde --- (-8 Feb 917).] 

3.         FREDERUNA (-10 Feb 917, bur Reims, église abbatiale de Saint-Rémi).  The charter of "Karolus…rex" dated "907 XIII Kal Mai" refers to "quondam nobili prosapia puellam…Frederunam" who had recently become his wife[676].  The charter of "Karolus…rex" dated "917 VII Kal Aug" refers to "nostra uxor Frideruna…frater eius Bovo Catalannensis Antistes Ecclesiæ"[677].  Nothing definite is known about the origins of Bovo, although Flodoard refers to "Berengario Transrhenensi clerico" as "nepoti Bovonis Catalaunensis quondam episcopi" when recording his appointment as Bishop of Cambrai in 956[678].  McKitterick assumes that Frederuna was of Lotharingian origin[679].  Settipani speculates that Queen Frederuna was probably a close relation of Mathilde, second wife of Heinrich I King of Germany[680].  This could be explained if Mathilde's mother, Reginlind, was Frederuna's sister, as hypothesised above.  The charter of "Karolus…rex" dated "918 IV Id Feb" refers to the death of "nostræ…coniugis Friderunæ"[681], and the charter dated "918 II Id Mar" that she had died "IV Id Feb"[682]m ([1/18] Apr 907) as his first wife, CHARLES III "le Simple" King of the West Franks, son of LOUIS II "le Bègue" King of the West Franks & his second wife Adelais (posthumously 17 Sep 879-Péronne 7 Oct 929, bur Péronne, monastère de Saint-Fursy).

1.         MILON (-after 932).  Bishop of Châlons .  Flodoard records in 931 that “[Rodulfus] rex” captured “Bovonem...Catalaunensem episcopum”, who had deserted to “Heriberto”, and granted “episcopatum ipsius” to “Miloni clerico[685].  Flodoard records in 932 that “Rodulfus rex” was reconciled with “Bovonem episcopum” and returned “Catalaunense...episcopium” to him, and that “Milo qui Catalaunense deprædabatur episcopium” was excommunicated by Archbishop Artaud[686]
