Chapter 1. ARCHBISHOPS of TRIER 791-1418.
INTRODUCTION
A review of the families of the princes, dukes and counts who ruled Germany in medieval times would be incomplete without documents devoted to the major archbishoprics. The bishopric of Trier, centred on the town of Trier north-east of Luxembourg, was elevated to archiepiscopal status during the reign of Charles I King of the Franks in the late 8th century, with jurisdiction over the bishoprics of Metz, Toul and Verdun. Under the terms of the 843 Treaty of Verdun, settling the disputes between the sons of Emperor Lous I "le Pieux", Trier and its archbishopric fell within the kingdom of Lotharingia. Along with the archbishops of Köln and Mainz, the archbishops of Trier played an important role in the election of successive kings of Germany. In particular, the archbishop of Trier was decisive role in electing King Konrad III in 1138[1]. By the mid-12th century, the archbishops of Köln, Mainz and Trier had firmly established themselves as the spiritual representatives in the electoral process. Electoral procedures, the unity of the seven electors including the three archbishops, and the right of election by the majority, were laid down definitively in the Golden Bull of 1356, which is described in some detail by Leuschner[2].
By the judicious acquisition of land, through purchase, donation and inheritance, the three archbishoprics of Köln, Mainz and Trier consolidated a dominant temporal, in addition to ecclesiastical, position of power within their jurisdictions. Trier held extensive territory along both sides of the river Rhine, stretching from Bonn and Coblenz in the north to Trier and Veldenz in the south, lying north-west of the counties of Sponheim and Zweibrücken. In addition, it held numerous isolated territories scattered throughout the lower and middle Rhine basins as well as the Rheinland Pfalzgrafschaft. The archbishops of Trier were elected mainly from prominent noble families in Lotharingia and the middle Rhine area, although as will be seen below the precise family connections of many of the archbishops cannot be traced with certainty. The suspicion is that the reigning archbishops groomed their successors from among members of their own family, related either through the female or the male line. If sufficient information on family relationships was available in primary source documentation, it is expected that it would reveal extensive informal "dynasties" of ecclesiasts spread across a limited number of noble families. In the case of the archbishopric of Köln, such family connections with families in the lower Rhine basin, especially the comital families of Altena, Berg, Heinsberg, Hochstaden, Jülich, and Mark, can be demonstrated clearly. In the case of the archbishopric of Trier, the available information is less extensive so the family connections do not emerge clearly from the source material. It is probable that a similar pattern would emerge in relation to the more important lower level ecclesiastical appointments within each archbishopric.
The present document shows the archbishops of Trier between 791 and 1418, and the bishops of Metz, Toul and Verdun. The listings are not strictly chronological in the case of the incumbents which can be linked by family group.
Chapter 1. ARCHBISHOPS of TRIER 791-1418
1. RICHBOD, son of --- (-804). The primary source which confirms Richbod’s family origin has not been identified. Rösch states that Hiltrud, daughter of Emperor Charles I, was the mistress (between [799/804]) of Richwin Count of Padua, brother of Richbod Bishop of Trier, who was at the court of Emperor Charlemagne between 792 and 814, and was the mother of an illegitimate son by him[3]. He cites no primary source on which this is based and no other reference has been found in the sources so far consulted. It is possibly based on onomastic speculation as Hiltrud’s illegitimate son was called Richbod (see the document FRANKS, CAROLINGIAN KINGS). The early counts of Padua/Padova have not been studied in Medieval Lands (NORTHERN ITALY (1) for later conti di Padova), but Einhard names "Rihwinus comes" as one of the 15 witnesses of the testament of Emperor Charlemagne dated 811[4]. It is possible that this was the same person (see FRANKS, CAROLINGIAN NOBILITY). The name “Richwin” is found twice in mid-9th century Carolingian nobility (FRANKS, CAROLINGIAN NOBILITY) and in the late 10th century among the early ancestors of the Grafen von Ahr (LOWER RHINE NOBILITY) and in the Comtes de Charpeigne (UPPER LOTHARINGIA NOBILITY), which suggests that the family may have originated in the Rhine basin. Abbot of Milan. Archbishop of Trier: Gallia Christiana records the election in 791 of “Mediolacensis abbas Richbodus vel Richboldus”, noting a letter from Alcuin addressed to “pontificem Rigbodum Trevericæ civitatis, cognomento Macarium” and another in which Richbod is named “filium, fratrem et amicum”[5]. The Gesta Treverorum lists (in order) "Richbodus…Wazzo…Hamularius Fortunatus cardinalis Romanus…Hetti abbas Mediolacensis" as heads of the church at Trier, dated to the late 8th and first half 9th century[6]. Gallia Christiana records his death in 804[7].
2. WASO (-809). No information has been found which indicates the family origin of Waso. The name has not been found in families studied in Medieval Lands. Considering that Waso succeeded Richbod at Milan, it is not impossible that the two were related considering the possible inheritance of ecclesiastical positions noted in the Introduction above. Abbot of Milan. Archbishop of Trier: Gallia Christiana records the election in 804 of Richbod’s successor as abbot of Milan “Vaso vel Viso”, without citing the source which confirms this information[8]. The Gesta Treverorum lists (in order) "Richbodus…Wazzo…Hamularius Fortunatus cardinalis Romanus…Hetti abbas Mediolacensis" as heads of the church at Trier, dated to the late 8th and first half 9th century[9]. Gallia Christiana records his death in 809[10].
3. AMALHAR (-814, bur Trier St. Paul). No information has been found regarding the family origin of Amalhar, but his connection with Milan may indicate a family as well as an ecclesiastical relationship with one of his predecessors. Monk at Milan. Archbishop of Trier: Gallia Christiana records the election in 809 of “Mediolacensis monachus Amalharius” as archbishop, citing “præcepto Ludovici Pii exarato an. 834”[11]. The Gesta Treverorum lists (in order) "Richbodus…Wazzo…Hamularius Fortunatus cardinalis Romanus…Hetti abbas Mediolacensis" as heads of the church at Trier, dated to the late 8th and first half 9th century[12]. Einhard records that Emperor Charles I sent “Amalharium Treverensem episcopum et Petrum abbatem monasterii Nonantulas” to negotiate peace in Constantinople in 813 with Emperor Mikhael I, but that in 814 they were sent home by Emperor Leon V[13]. Gallia Christiana records his death in 814 and burial “in æde S. Paulini”[14].
[Four] siblings: 1. HETTO (-27 May 847, bur St Eucharius). Abbot of Milan. Archbishop of Trier: Gallia Christiana records the election in 814 of “Hetti vel Hetto germanus frater Warentrudis Palatiolensis abbatissæ...Mediolacensi...abbas” as archbishop[15]. The Gesta Treverorum lists (in order) "Richbodus…Wazzo…Hamularius Fortunatus cardinalis Romanus…Hetti abbas Mediolacensis" as heads of the church at Trier, dated to the late 8th and first half 9th century[16]. One manuscript of the Gesta Treverorum records that "Hetti" was buried "in monasterio sancti Eucharii" next to "Ruotgaudus eiusdem Hetti germanus"[17]. Regino records the death in 847 of “Hetti Trevirorum episcopus”[18]. 2. RUOTGAUD (-bur St Eucharius). One manuscript of the Gesta Treverorum records that "Hetti" was buried "in monasterio sancti Eucharii" next to "Ruotgaudus eiusdem Hetti germanus"[19]. 3. WARENTRUD . Abbess of [Palazzuolo, Tuscany (“Palatiolensis”)?]: Gallia Christiana records the election in 814 of “Hetti vel Hetto germanus frater Warentrudis Palatiolensis abbatissæ...Mediolacensi...abbas” as archbishop[20]. 4. [--- . As noted below, Gallia Christiana records Thetgod as “nepos” of Archbishop Hetto. The primary source which confirms this family relationship has not been identified. If the term is used in its strict sense of nephew, one of Thetgod’s parents was Hetto’s sibling. However, considering the broad possible uses of nepos, the word may indicate a more remote connection. m ---.] [One child:] a) [THETGOD [Teutgaud/Thetgaud] (-29 Sep 868). There are two indications of Thetgod’s family origin. Firstly, Gallia Christiana records the election in 847 of “ab Epternacensi abbate Teutgaudus, Hetti nepos...Mediolacensis abbas” as archbishop[21]. Secondly, according to Baron Ernouf, Gunther archbishop of Köln was uncle of Waldrada and Thetgaud archbishop of Trier was her brother[22]. The primary sources which confirm either of these relationships have not been identified. Archbishop of Trier 847. Regino records the death in 847 of “Hetti Trevirorum episcopus” and the succession of “Thietgaudus”[23]. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Tietgaudus" as successor of "Hetti" in 851, adding that he was led astray ("seductus") by Lothar II King of Lotharingia and Günther Archbishop of Köln and connived in the false accusations against "Tietbergæ uxoris eiusdem Lotharii"[24]. Gallia Christiana records his death in 868[25].]
1. BERTHOLF, son of [GEBHARD Graf im Niederlahngau & his wife ---] (-10 Feb or 2 Oct 883, bur Trier St. Paul). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. His precise family relationship with Adventius Bishop of Metz (see below) has not been ascertained. Bertholf is referred to as "Bertold" in Europäische Stammtafeln with the date 879[26]. Archbishop of Trier 869. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Bertolfus abbas Mediolacensis…consanguineus Adventii, tunc temporis Mettensis episcopi" succeeded as "episcopus Treberis" in 868[27]. Jackman links him with the archbishop of Köln (referred to in Grote[28]) with the similar name[29]. An epitaph at “ecclesiæ beati Paulini“ records the death “IV Id Feb” of “Bertolfus Trevir. archiepiscopus”[30].
1. RATBOD (-30 Mar 915). The primary source which confirms Ratbot’s family origin has not been identified. However, Ratbod Bishop of Utrecht was possibly the nephew of Thetgod Archbishop of Trier (see the document HOLLAND & FRISIA), the name suggesting that Archbishop Ratbod may also have been related to Thetgod. Abbot of Milan. Archbishop of Trier. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Radbodus abbas de Mediolaco" succeeded "Bertolfus archiepiscopus"[31]. The Annales Sancti Maximini Trevirensis record the death in 917 of "Ruodpertus episcopus"[32]. Gallia Christiana records his death “III Kal Apr 915“[33].
Two siblings: 1. RUTGER (-27 Jan 930, bur Trier St. Paul). No source has been found which suggests Rutger’s family origin. Archbishop of Trier: Gallia Christiana records the election in 915 of “Rodgerus” as archbishop, noting the earlier presence of “Ratbodus notarius vice Rutgeri archiepiscopi summique cancellarii” in a charter issued “XIV Kal Feb” [year not specified] at Héristal[34]. The Continuator of Regino records in 928 [date incorrect] the death of “Ruodgerus Trevirorum archiepiscopus” and the appointment of “Ruodbertus”[35]. An epitaph “in basilica sancti Paulini“ records the death “VI Kal Feb” of “Ruotgerus Trevirensis archiepiscopus”, Gallia Christiana specifying his death in 930[36]. 2. [brother/sister] . Assuming that “neptis” in the 936 charter quoted below is interpreted in its strict sens of niece, one of her parents was Rutger’s sibling. It is not certain whether this was Folrad or his wife. The possibility remains that the term was used in an extended sense to indicate a more remote family relationship. m [FOLRAD, son of ---.] Folrad & his wife had one child: a) ADA (-after 936). Rotbert Archbishop of Trier agreed with "Ada filia Folradi neptis Rothgeri…archiepiscopi" relating to "villa Theoderica…in pago Rizogohensi in comitatu Ardenensi sitam" by charter dated 936, which names "Ada et filii eius Rotgerus…et Folradus"[37]. m --- (-[before 936]). No source has been found which names Ada’s husband. Presumably his absence from the 936 charter indicates that he was deceased at the time. Two children: i) RUTGER (-after 936). Rotbert Archbishop of Trier agreed with "Ada filia Folradi neptis Rothgeri…archiepiscopi" relating to "villa Theoderica…in pago Rizogohensi in comitatu Ardenensi sitam" by charter dated 936, which names "Ada et filii eius Rotgerus…et Folradus"[38]. ii) FOLRAD (-after 936). Rotbert Archbishop of Trier agreed with "Ada filia Folradi neptis Rothgeri…archiepiscopi" relating to "villa Theoderica…in pago Rizogohensi in comitatu Ardenensi sitam" by charter dated 936, which names "Ada et filii eius Rotgerus…et Folradus"[39].
1. ROBERT, son of --- (-19 May 956, bur Trier St. Paul). His family origin is indicated by Thietmar, quoted below. Gallia Christiana names “vir regali prosapia...Robertus, Rudolphi Burgundiæ regis ex Bertha filia Arnolphi Bajoariæ ducis griatus, germanus...Adheleidis primo Lothario regi Italiæ, deinde magno Ottoni sociatæ“, when recording his election as archbishop in 930 and ordination the following year[40], details which cannot be reconciled with Burgundian sources (see the document BURGUNDY KINGDOM, KINGS). Archbishop of Trier. The Continuator of Regino records in 928 [date incorrect, see above] the death of “Ruodgerus Trevirorum archiepiscopus” and the appointment of “Ruodbertus”[41]. The Annales Sancti Maximini Trevirensis record the ordination in 931 of "Ruodperti episcopi"[42]. Thietmar refers to the "paternal uncle [of Count Ansfrid] Robert Archbishop of Trier"[43]. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Rubertus archiepiscopus" came from "regno quod Lotharingium vocatur" adding that "soror eius imperatori in matrimonio iuncta fuit"[44]. The Monumenta Germaniæ editor adds a comment that the consecration of "Rotbertum regum Saxonicorum fuisse propinquum" was proposed by "fratres Ballerini" and that he was "nepotem Brunonem archiepiscopum"[45]. The Continuator of Regino records the death in 956 from plague of “Ruodbertus archiepiscopus Treverensis et Hadamarus abbas Fuldensis”[46]. Gallia Christiana records his death in 956 and burial “prope ecclesiam S. Paulini...“[47].
[Two possible brothers:] 1. HEINRICH [I], son of [Graf HEINRICH & his wife ---] (-Rome 3 Jul 964). According to Europäische Stammtafeln, Archbishop Heinrich was the possible son of Graf Heinrich[48]. The basis for this speculation is not known. Gallia Christiana names him more generally “illustri Francorum ac Suevorum prosapia genitus Heinricus“, noting that he was educated “in abbatia Augiensi cum S. Wolfango, postea Ratisponensi episcopo”[49]. Archbishop of Trier 956. The Continuator of Regino records the death in 956 from plague of “Ruodbertus archiepiscopus Treverensis et Hadamarus abbas Fuldensis” and the election of “quibus Heinricus in episcopatu”[50]. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Heinricus" succeeded "Rutpertum" as archbishop of Trier[51]. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Heinricus episcopus" died "in Italia"[52]. The Continuator of Regino records the death in 964 from plague in Rome of “Heinricus archiepiscopus Treverensis”[53]. 2. [POPPO (-15 Feb 961). According to Europäische Stammtafeln, Bishop Poppo was the brother of Heinrich Archbishop of Trier[54]. The basis for this speculation is not known. Chancellor of Germany 931/940. Bishop of Würzburg 941. The necrology of St Gall records the death "XV Kal Mar" of "Popponis Wirciburgensis ecclesie ep"[55].]
1. DIETRICH [I] (-5 Jul 975). No source has been found which suggests Dietrich’s family origin. Provost of Mainz. Archbishop of Trier: Gallia Christiana records the election in 965 of “Moguntinensis præpositus Theodericus“[56]. The Continuator of Regino records that the emperor appointed “Thiodricus eiusdem ecclesiæ diaconus” as archbishop of Trier in 965 after returning from Italy[57]. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Theodericus" succeeded "Henricus" as archbishop of Trier[58]. Gallia Christiana notes the necrology of St Maximin which records the death “975 III Non Jul” of Archbishop Dietrich[59].
1. EGBERT of Holland, son of DIRK II Count of Holland & his wife Hildegarde [de Flandre] (-8/9 Dec 993, bur St Andreas). "Theodericus comes et uxor sua Hildegardis" and "Hecberto et Arnulfo filiis ipsius Theoderici" are named in a charter dated Oct [967/79][60]. The Chronologia Johannes de Beke names (in order) "Arnulfum comitem, Egbertum Treverensem archiepiscopum ac Arlindam puellam" as the children of Count Dirk II & his wife[61]. "…Hecberto et Arnulfo filiis ipsius Theoderici…" signed the charter dated 2 Oct 974 under which "Theodericus comes et uxor sua Hildegardis" donated "in villa Haleftra in pago Mempesco sita" to Saint-Pierre de Gand[62]. The Vita Sancti Adalberti Egmondani name "Theoderici iunioris filius Egbertus Trevirensis post archiepiscopus"[63]. Imperial Chancellor. Archbishop of Trier. Gallia Christiana records Egbert’s election as archbishop in 975[64]. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Eckebertus…de Britannia ortus, patre Theoderico comite et matre Hildegarda" succeeded "Theodericus" as archbishop of Trier[65]. "Theodericus…Holtlandensis comes…Florentii filius" recites the ownership history of properties claimed by the church of Utrecht in Holland, including donations by "Ekbertus, nominati comitis filius…Treuerice ecclesie archiepiscopus", by spurious charter dated 26 Jul 1083, probably written in [1130][66]. The Annales Colonienses record the death in 993 of "Ecbertus Trevirensis archiepiscopus"[67]. The Annales Egmundani record the death in 994 of "Ekbertus frater Arnulfi comitis Treveronum archiepiscopus"[68]. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Eckebertus" went "ad fluvium Oleviam" where he died and was buried "in parva ecclesia, quam ipse construxerat in honore sancti Andreæ"[69].
1. LIUDOLF (-7 Apr 1008). No source has been found which suggests Liudolf’s family origin. Archbishop of Trier 994. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Liudolfus…natione Saxo" succeeded "Eckebertus" as archbishop of Trier[70]. The Annales Colonienses record the the ordination of "Liudolfus Trevirensis episcopus" in 994[71]. The Annales Colonienses record the death in 1008 of "Liudolphus Trevirensis archiepiscopus" and the succession of "Megingoz"[72]. Gallia Christiana notes the necrology of St Maximin which records the death “1008...6 Dec” of Archbishop Liudolf[73].
1. MEGINGOZ (-24 Dec 1015). No source has been found which suggests Megingoz’s family origin. Archbishop of Trier 1008. The Annales Colonienses record the death in 1008 of "Liudolphus Trevirensis archiepiscopus" and the succession of "Megingoz"[74]. The Gesta Treverorum records that Heinrich II King of Germany installed "Meingaudo…præposito ecclesiæ Mogontinæ" as archbishop of Trier in succession to "Liudolfo"[75]. An epitaph records the death “in vigilia Natalis Domini...in urbe sua Cophelenci“ of “Megingaudus Trevericæ civitatis episcopus” after 8 years and 7 months in office[76].
1. POPPO von Babenberg, son of LUITPOLD I Markgraf der bayerischen Ostmark [Austria] & his wife Richwara im Sualafeldgau (-14 Feb or 16 Apr 1047, bur Trier St Simeon, transferred 1803 to St Gervasius). The Annales Zwetlenses name "Popponem episcopum Traverensem" as brother of "Heinricus marchio Austrie [et] frater eius Leupoldus"[77], although the reference to "Leupoldus" appears incorrect. A list of names in the Verbrüderungsbuch of Reichenau abbey reads "Luitpold marches, Rihuuar, Iudita, Heinrich, Ernust, Poppo, Luitpold, Cunigurrt, Adalbr"[78], which appears to refer to Markgraf Luitpold, his wife and children. Wipo names "Poppo frater Ernesti ducis", when recording the former as Archbishop of Trier[79]. Provost of Bamberg cathedral after 1007. The Gesta Treverorum records that Heinrich II King of Germany installed "Popponem in Babenberch educatum" as archbishop of Trier in succession to "Megingaudo" in 1015[80].

Thietmar records the installation of "Poppo…son of Markgraf Leopold and provost of the church of Bamberg" as Archbishop of Trier in 1016[82]. Wipo, in his description of the election of Konrad II King of Germany in 1024, calls Poppo a "pious and humble man", says he was the brother of Duke Ernst, and that he was the guardian of the latter's son Ernst[83]. The necrology of Melk records the death "XVI Kal Mar" of "Poppo archieps Treverensis fr Heinrici marchionis"[84]. The Annales Necrologici Prumienses record the death in 1047 of “Boppo archiepiscopus”[85].
1. EBERHARD, son of HEINRICH --- & his wife --- (-15 Apr 1066, bur St Paul). His father’s name is confirmed by the Trier necrology quoted below but the source which confirms Eberhard’s family origin has not been identified. On the other hand, Gallia Christiana records the appointment in 1047 of “Ezelini vel Ezonis Alemanniæ comitis Palatini atque Mathildis eius conjugis...filius Ebherardus, ex præposito Wormatiensis ecclesiæ” as archbishop by Emperor Heinrich III[86], a suggestion which is not corroborated by the sources which relate to the Pfalzgrafen von Lothringen (see the document LOTHARINGIA, KINGS & DUKES, PFALZGRAFEN). Archbishop of Trier 1047. The Gesta Treverorum records that "Eberhardus" succeeded as archbishop of Trier after "Poppo archiepiscopus"[87].

The Gesta Treverorum records that "Eberhardus" died "sabbato sancto paschæ" and was buried "in monasterio sancti Paulini"[90]. A continuator of the Gesta Treverorum records the death "XVII Kal Mai" of Eberhard and his burial "in basilica sancti Paulini"[91]. The Annales Necrologici Prumienses record the death in 1063 of “Eberhardus archiepiscopus Treverensis”[92].

The Gesta Treverorum records that "Anno Coloniensis episcopus" ordained "clericum suum…Cuononem" as archbishop of Trier after the death of "Eberhardus"[93]. A continuator of the Gesta Treverorum records that "Anno Coloniensis episcopus" ordained "nepotem suum Cuononem" at Trier in succession to Eberhard but that he died "in Kal Iun miserabili morte"[94].

Gallia Christiana records the succession as bishop of Verdun in 881 of “nepos...Berhardi Dado”[340]. Assuming that the term “nepos” was used its strict sense of nephew, one of Dado’s parents was Berhard’s sibling, although a more distant family relationship cannot be excluded. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium names "avunculo nostro [Dado] domino Berhardo episcopo"[341]: assuming that “avunculus” was used in its strict sense of maternal uncle, the relationship with Berhard was through Dado’s mother. m RADALD, son of ---.] Radald & his wife had four children: a) ADALBERT .

The Liber Memorialis of Remiremont names "Domini Dadoni episcopi cum genitore Radaldo et matri Rotrude sororibusque Uuilburch et Lantsint cum fratre Adelberto et filiis suis"[354]. Her marriage is confirmed by Flodoard naming "Bernuino, Dadonis episcopi nepoti"[355], Bishop Dado being Lantsind's brother and Bernuin her son, read together with the Vita of Johannes von Gorze which names "[Adelbert] cum fratris Bernuini Virdunensis episcopi"[356]. The Liber Memorialis of Remiremont records the death "Non Mar" of "Lantsquent"[357]. m MATFRIED Graf [von Metz], son of --- (-19 Aug [930]). i) BERNOIN (-939). The Vita of Johannes von Gorze names "[Adelbert] cum fratris Bernuini Virdunensis episcopi"[358]. Flodoard names "Bernuino, Dadonis episcopi nepoti"[359], referring to Bernoin's maternal uncle as explained above. Gallia Christiana records the succession as bishop of Verdun in 925 of “Bernuinum Dadonis nepotem, comitis Adelberti germanum”[360]. Bishop of Verdun 925. Flodoard records in 925 that "Heinrico” appointed “Bernuino Dadonis episcopi nepoti” to “episcopium Virdunense” after expelling “Hugone presbitero” the appointee of “Rodulfus”[361]. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the death in 920 of “Dado episcopus Virdunensis” and the succession of “Bernoynus”[362].

"Adalberonem…episcopum, Fredericum et Herimannum comites, Godefridum atque Gozelonem" are named (in order) as the five sons of "comiti Godefrido" and "Mathildis Saxoniæ comitissa" in the Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium[376]. He was appointed Bishop of Verdun in 984 by his uncle Adalbero Bishop of Reims, which triggered the latter's dispute with Lothaire King of the West Franks as the appointment was made without the king's permission[377]. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the death in 986 of “Wicfridus episcopus Virdunensis” and the succession of “Adelbero”[378]. "Adalbero, filius comitis Godefridi" is named in the Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium, when recording his appointment as Bishop of Verdun[379]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names (in order) "episcopum Virdunensem Alberonem, comitem Fridericum…comitem de Daburc Hermannum…et duos duces Godefridum et Gothelonem" as sons of "Godefridi Ardennensis" and his wife Mechtild, recording in an earlier passage the election of "alter Adalbero, filius comitis Godefridi" as Bishop of Verdun in 984[380]. The earlier paragraph also records the appointment at the same time of "Adalbero filius Friderici ducis" as Bishop of Metz, making it clear that the two were different persons, disproving the assertion in Poull[381]. The necrology of Verdun Cathedral records the death "XIV Kal Mai" of "Adelbero episcopus virdun. ecclesie"[382].

"Hildradus cognomento Hescelinus comes" donated property "Bolruuel" for "Hercendis uxoris mee, Richardi quoque filii mei quem ad clericatus" to Verdun Saint-Vanne by charter dated 1020, subscribed by "Albrici nepotis mei"[388]. The reference to "filii mei" rather than "filii nostri" in this document suggests that Richard may not have been the son of Hildrad by his marriage to Hersende. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium records a donation by Richard Bishop of Verdun "pro anima patris sui comitis Hildradi qui cognomentus est Hecelinus"[389]. Bishop of Verdun 1039. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the death in 1039 of “Raymbertus episcopus Virdunensis” and the succession of “Richardus”[390]. "Heinricus…rex" confirmed the foundation and possessions of the convent of Maria Magdalena at Verdun by charter dated 16 Jun 1040, on the petition of "Ricardi Virdunensis ecclesiæ presulis,…quodam suæ dioceseos clerico Ermenfrido, …tempore patris sui Heizelini comitis", which records donations by "Beroldi…quod imprimis eius pater comes Hezelinus…tradidit…[et] Guota per manus mariti sui Gotefridi ducis…aliud etiam de Ionvilla quæ dedit Adelaidis comitissa"[391]. The Chronicon Hugonis records that "Hildradus comes" offered "Richardum filium suum post episcopum" to the church and died in Galilee[392]. The necrology of Verdun Saint-Vanne records the death "VII Id MXLVI" of "dominus Richardus episcopus Virdunensis"[393]. 2. HERMANN Comte. Children: a) RICHARD [II] (-1114). The Laurentii Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium records that, after the death of “Remorum archiepiscopus Manasses” [died 1106], “illa ecclesia” chose “Richardum Virdunensem archidiaconum” to succeed, noting that he was governing “comitatum Grandis-prati” at that time (“comitatum Grandis-prati tunc regebat”) as “fratre Heinrico comite iam mortuo” and “altero fratre Balduino...a Turcis martirizato”, but that he was instead chosen to succeed as bishop of Verdun[394]. Bishop of Verdun 1107. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the death in 1107 of “Richerus episcopus” and the succession of “Richardus”[395]. The primary source which confirms Richard’s date of death has not been identified.
1. THIERRY, son of --- (-Apr 1088). Provost of Basel. Bishop of Verdun 1046. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the death in 1046 of “Richardus episcopus Virdunensis” and the succession of “Theodericus”[396]. "Theodericus…Vidunensis ecclesiæ episcopum" confirmed the property of Verdun la Madeleine, including the donation of "ecclesi…Villare" by "frater meus Albertus comes", by charter dated 1047[397]. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium records that “Theodericus...natura Teutonicus et Basiliensis ecclesiæ fuerat canonicus” succeeded Richard as bishop of Verdun and held office for 43 years[398].
1. RICHER [de Briey], son of --- (-1107). Bishop of Verdun 1088. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium records that “decanus Metensis ecclesiæ Richerus” succeeded Dietrich as bishop of Verdun and that “fratres suos Albertum, Bezelinum et Iohannem viros nobilissimos” swore homage and gave hostages[399]. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the death in 1088 of “Theodericus episcopus Virdunensis” and the succession of “Richerus”[400]. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the death in 1107 of “Richerus episcopus” and the succession of “Richardus”[401].
1. HENRY (-after 1129). Archdeacon of Winchester. The Chronicle of Abingdon records that "Willielmus Wintoniensis episcopus" donated "locum sui hospitii...extra murum civitatis Wintoniæ" to Abingdon, dated to [5 Aug 1114/4 Aug 1115], subscribed by "Henricus archidiaconus eiusdem episcopi, Stephanus archidiaconus, Richerus et Alfricus archidiaconi"[402]. Bishop of Verdun 1117. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the succession in 1116 of “episcopus Heinricus Virdunensis”[403]. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium records that “Heinricus...Guintoniensis Angliæ archidiaconus”, who had arrived with “filia regis Anglorum Mathilde quam duxerat rex Romanorum”, succeeded Richer as bishop of Verdun[404]. [Poull identifies this person as Henri de Blois, son of Etienne Comte de Blois and his wife Adela de Normandie[405]. He adds that "Heinricus" was chaplain to Empress Matilda, citing the Gesta: the text does not specify precisely that he held this position, but it is implied. Matilda left England for Germany in early 1110, and was married to Emperor Heinrich V until early 1114. If the estimated birth date of Henri de Blois is correctly shown as [1098/99] in the document CENTRAL FRANCE-BLOIS TOURS, it is unlikely that he would have accompanied the future empress as early 1110, and even less likely that he became the empress´s chaplain at that time. However, given the tense relations which existed between Emperor Heinrich V and the church, it is not impossible that the former made the appointment whatever the age of his appointee. No other person "Henry archdeacon of Winchester" has yet been identified.] The Gesta continues by recording that "Heinricus", on the recommendation of Emperor Heinrich V, was elected Bishop of Verdun in 1118 but could not be consecrated due to the ongoing dispute between the papacy and the empire regarding lay investiture[406]. The Pope arranged his consecration in Milan by cardinal John of Cremona, but the emperor forbade the inhabitants of Verdun from receiving him and he took refuge in the fortress of Hattonchatel. He was finally installed in 1120 with the military support of Renaud Comte [de Bar], Comte de Verdun, but was expelled in 1123 by Henri Comte de Grandpré who stormed Verdun on the orders of Emperor Heinrich V. Bishop Henri escaped by swimming across the river Meuse. He was reinstalled as bishop following the peace of Chalade signed between Renaud de Bar and the emperor in 1124, but left after the death of Pope Calixtus II[407]. The Gesta makes no reference to the subsequent fate of "Heinricus". Abdicated 1129. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium records that “Heinricus” was forced to abdicate as bishop of Verdun after holding office for 13 years[408].
1. URSIO (-1149). Bishop of Verdun 1129. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium records that “Ursionem abbatem sancti Dyonisii Remensis” was elected as bishop of Verdun[409]. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the election in 1129 of “Orsio abbas Sancti Dionisii Remensis”, and his abdication in 1131[410].
1. ADALBERO de Chiny, son of ARNOUL Comte de Chiny & his third wife Agnes --- (-1156). Bishop of Verdun. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium records that “dominum Alberonem ecclesiæ suæ archidiaconum filium Arnulfi comitis Chisneiensium” was elected Bishop of Verdun, dated to 1131[411]. Abdicated 1153/56. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium (Continuatio) records that “Albero...episcopus” resigned his bishopric and retired to “claustrum sancti Pauli Virdunensis Premonstratensis ordinis” where he died in 1158 and was buried “in maiore ecclesia beate Marie”[412]. 2. ALBERT Comte de Chiny. Children: a) ARNOUL de Chiny (-killed Sainte-Ménehould 14 Aug 1181, bur Verdun Notre-Dame). Thesaurarius of Verdun. Bishop of Verdun 1172. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the death in 1171 of “Richardus electus Virdunensis” and the succession of “Arnoldus”[413]. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium (Continuatio) records that “Arnulphus” succeeded Richard as bishop of Verdun, but was killed when “miles Albertus...cognomento Pichot dominus de Sancta Manehilde” invaded the bishopric of Verdun in 1181 and was buried “in maiore ecclesia beate Marie”[414]. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the death in 1181 of “Arnoldus episcopus Virdunensis” shot in the head by an arrow “ante castrum Sancta Manehulde”[415]. b) ALIX de Chiny. m as his second wife, MANASSES de Hierges. Children: i) ALBERT [II] de Hierges (-killed 25/26 Jul 1208). Bishop of Verdun 1186. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium (Continuatio) records that “Albertum thesaurarium” and “Robertum de Grandi-prato” were chosen as bishop of Verdun by different factions, and that Albert was favoured “in curia imperatoris”[416]. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the abdication in 1186 of “Henricus” and the succession of “Albertus” without providing further details[417]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the installation as Bishop of Verdun of "Albertus de Hirgis nepos ex sorore episcopi Arnulfi et comitis de Cisneio Ludovici et Theoderici de Marleriis", recalling that he had a brother "Ludowicum qui longo tempore fuit abbas Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis", but does not record the disputed election[418]. Gallia Christiana, presumably based on the Gesta, records that the choice of Albert de Hierges as bishop of Verdun in 1186 was opposed by a group who supported “Roberto canonico, gente Grandis-prati procreato”[419]. Wassebourg further expands the narrative (based on which primary source?), recording that the election of Albert de Hierges as bishop of Verdun [in 1186] was opposed by “un autre de leurs confreres chanoynes nommé Robert...de la maison de Grand Pré”, and describing the lengthy dispute between the two candidates which culminated in an imperial decision in 1189 in favour of Albert[420]. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record that “Albertus episcopus” was killed (“lancea interemptus”) in 1208 and succeeded by “Robertus primicerius”[421]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records in 1208 “apud Virdunum inter clericos et laicos grave...discordie” which resulted in the mortal wounding of “eorum episcopus Albertus de Hirges”[422]. c) IDA de Chiny. m GOBERT [V] Seigneur d´Aspremont. Children: i) GEOFFROY [I] Seigneur d´Aspremont. Children: (a) JEAN [I] d´Aspremont (-Dec 1238). Bishop of Verdun 1217.

The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the death in 1217 of “Robertus episcopus Virdunensis” and the succession of “Iohannes de Aspero-monte, qui fundavit monasterium sancti Nicolai in Prato”[424]. Bishop of Metz 1224. The Gesta Episcoporum Mettensium (Continuatio) records the succession of “frater domini Asperi-montis dominus Iohannes”, his acquisition of “comes de Dauborc...feodum” from the count´s daughter and heiress, and “castra nobilia Saraborc...Albam, Truquestein et Herrestein...advocatiam de Marsal”[425]. The Annales Sancti Vitoni Virdunensis record the abdication in 1224 of “Iohannes Virdunensis episcopus”, his transfer “ad episcopatum Mettensem”, and the succession of “Radulfus de Torta cantor de Lyon”[426]. The necrology of Verdun Cathedral records the death "XVII Kal Jun" of "Guido de Asperomonte", adding that he confirmed the donation of "Roure" made by "patre suo Jofrido" with the consent of "fratrum suorum J. episcopi nostri et Goberti domini de Duno"[427]. The Gesta Episcoporum Mettensium (Continuatio) records the burial of “Iohannes” “in choro maioris ecclesie Metensis”[428].
Two siblings: 1. ALBERT [I] de Marcey (-14 Apr 1162, bur Verdun). Bishop of Verdun 1156. The Gesta Episcoporum Virdunensium (Continuatio) records that “Albertus de Merceio” [Marcie near Longwy] succeeded Adalbero [III] as bishop of Verdun, died in 1162 and was buried “in nostro monasterio”[429]. 2. ---. m ---. Children: a) ROGER de Marcey (-1 Jan 1252). Bishop of Toul 1231. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records in 1230 that “apud Tullum episcopus Garinus” was deposed and “magister Rogerus primicerius Virdunensis” was made bishop[430].
1. RICHARD [III] de Durbuy, son of GODEFROI Comte de Durbuy [Namur] & his wife Alix [de Grandpré?] (-1171). The Genealogiæ Scriptoris Fusniacensis names "Richardum Laudunensem atque Virdunensem archidiaconum, fratrem quoque eius Henricum et sororem eius Adelidem sanctimonialem" as children of "Godefrido de Durbuil" & his wife[431].
