Family


man Gerard I of Paris, Count of Paris‏‎ 1)
Died ‎± 26 Apr 776

Notes: The Henry Project places considerable uncertainty on Gerard I being father of Bego of Paris:

"No direct evidence is available on the parentage of Bégon. The main clues are the fact that he was count of Paris and the fact that he named a son Leuthard, and there was another Leuthard, probably count of Fezensac, who was father of count Gérard II of Paris, brother of count Étienne of Paris, and probably son of count Gérard I. This suggests that Bégon was also of the same family, but his exact placement is uncertain."

Gerard I and Rotrude may also therefore be grandparents of the Engletrude who married Eudes, Count of Orleans.

Notes: Bego's identification as father of Susanna depends on whether the Werner conjecture is followed. Quoting The Henry Project:

"The argument for making Susanna a daughter of Bégon was given by Werner [Werner (1967)], and is rather involved. The details are given on the page of her son Adalhard. If Werner's theory is correct, Susanna would be the grandmother of Adélaïde, wife of king Louis II of France. If Susanna was also a daughter of Alpaïde, then Adélaïde and Louis would be first cousins twice removed (or second cousins once removed in the much less likely scenario that Alpaïde was a daughter of Charlemagne), well within the prohibited degree. This suggests that Susanna was the daughter of an earlier marriage, which would also make the chronology less tight. The main argument for making Susanna a daughter of Alpaïde is the rather weak onomastic observation that Adélaïde's son Charles III the Simple named one of his daughters Alpaïde."
