The castle of Württemberg was built by an obscure Swabian noble family near Stuttgart. The family was one of many which profited from the dispute between Konrad IV King of Germany and the papal party, led by Willem II Count of Holland as its figurehead and anti-king, in the mid-13th century. The reaction against Staufen control in Swabia enabled the local nobility to assert their autonomy, the duchy of Swabia virtually disappearing as a territorial unit and dissolving into a collection of territorial fragments[1]. The eventual fall-out was the establishment of the Markgrafen von Baden and the Dukes of Württemberg as the major Swabian lords.

The gau in the Baden-Württemberg area are best described in three lines from west to east. In the southern line lay Breisgau in which the castle of Zähringen was built, Alpgau around the monastery of St Blasius, Hegau to the north-west of Lake Constance north of the river Rhine, Linzgau, Nibelgau and Argengau to the north and north-east of Lake Constance, and Alpengau in the east bordering the Bavarian/Carinthian territories. The nobility in the area east of Zähringen are grouped together into the chapter “Southern Württemberg” in the present document. To the north of this line, lay Ortenau east of the river Rhine and Alsace to the west, Bertoldsbaar between the rivers Neckar and Danube, Duria, and Augstgau along the river Lech south of the town of Augsburg, shown in the chapter “Central Württemberg”. In the extreme northern part of Swabia lay Neckargau, Swiggerstal, Trachgau, Flisgau, Alb and Ries, grouped into the chapter "North-east Württemberg" in the present document.

Chapter 1. GRAFEN von WÜRTTEMBERG, early 12th century to 1495

1. ADALBERT (-before 1120). Graf von Württemberg. The Chronicon Wirtembergense (which records events until the early 16th century, so is probable unreliable in respect of events 300 years earlier) records that “Adelbertus comes Wirtembergensis” lived “circa 1100”[2]. m LUITGARD, daughter of [HEINRICH von Wasserberg & his wife Gisela ---] (-after 1120). The Chronicon Wirtembergense records that “Adelbertus comes Wirtembergensis” married “Luitgardam nobilissimam comitissam, sororem Engelberti de Hallone ex Norico”, adding that as a widow she became a nun “in monasterio Berone non longe a sancto Blasio in Hercinio”[3]. This parentage appears impossible from a chronological point of view. One possibility is that Luitgard was a member of the previous generation of the family, although it is also possible that the source is completely inaccurate. Adalbert & his wife had four children:

a) BERTHOLD . The Chronicon Wirtembergense names “Berchtoldum, Conradum, Adelbertum et N. filiam” as the four children of “Adelbertus comes Wirtembergensis” and his wife “Luitgardam nobilissimam comitissam, sororem Engelberti de Hallone ex Norico”[4].

b) KONRAD . The Chronicon Wirtembergense names “Berchtoldum, Conradum, Adelbertum et N. filiam” as the four children of “Adelbertus comes Wirtembergensis” and his wife “Luitgardam nobilissimam comitissam, sororem Engelberti de Hallone ex Norico”, adding that and “sororis suæ filius” donated property to “monasterium S. Blasii”[5].

c) ADALBERT . The Chronicon Wirtembergense names “Berchtoldum, Conradum, Adelbertum et N. filiam” as the four children of “Adelbertus comes Wirtembergensis” and his wife “Luitgardam nobilissimam comitissam, sororem Engelberti de Hallone ex Norico”[6].

d) daughter . The Chronicon Wirtembergense names “Berchtoldum, Conradum, Adelbertum et N. filiam” as the four children of “Adelbertus comes Wirtembergensis” and his wife “Luitgardam nobilissimam comitissam, sororem Engelberti de Hallone ex Norico”[7]. m ---. One child:

i) son . The Chronicon Wirtembergense names “Berchtoldum, Conradum, Adelbertum et N. filiam” as the four children of “Adelbertus comes Wirtembergensis” and his wife “Luitgardam nobilissimam comitissam, sororem Engelberti de Hallone ex Norico”, adding that and “sororis suæ filius” donated property to “monasterium S. Blasii”[8].

1. KONRAD [I] (-before 1120). Graf von Beutelsbach. Graf von Württemberg. The Chronicon Wirtembergense records “duobus aliis comitibus de Wirtemberg...fratres, horum major natu...Conradus...alter...Bruno...Spirensis ecclesiæ canonicus et postmodum...in Hirsaugia monachus”, suggesting they and their sister Luitgard were “Adalberti senioris...filii...agnati”[9]. Ortlieb's Chronicon of Zwiefalten records "Counradus de Wirtineberc" as witness (listed second) of the donation of "Wernheri comitis [de Grouningin]"[10].

1. LUDWIG [II] (-after 18 May 1181). The parentage of Ludwig [II] has not been ascertained. The chronology suggests that he was a different person from Ludwig [I]. Graf von Württemberg.

Her marriage and relationship to the family of the Grafen von Württemberg are also suggested by the charter dated 5 Sep 1256 under which "Ulricus…comes de Wirtenberch" confirmed donations to Kloster Marchthal made by "Rudolfus comes de Tuwingen noster avunculus" by charter dated 5 Sep 1256[47], although if this is correct it is unclear why her brother should refer to her husband as his “avunculus”. m as his first wife, RUDOLF [III] "der Scherer" Graf von Tübingen in Herrenburg, son of RUDOLF [II] Pfalzgraf von Tübingen & his wife --- (-Vienna 12 May 1277, bur Bebenhusen).

"Ul. comes de Wirtemberch" donated property to Kloster Kirchberg by charter dated 1247[50]. Graf Ulrich took advantage of the absence of central authority in the duchy of Swabia, during the dispute between Konrad IV King of Germany and the papal party with Willem II Count of Holland as its figurehead and anti-king, to establish the autonomy of his county and increase its territorial area[51]. Wilhelm King of Germany sold the Vogtei of the sepulchre of Denkendorf to "comiti Ulrico de Wirtenberg" by charter dated 12 Jul 1252[52].

The Chronicon Polono-Silesiacum refers to the three daughters of "Boleslaus Calvus" & his first wife, specifying that one (listed first) married "comiti de Wirtenberk"[58]. A list of memorials in Stuttgart church records the death “III Id Mar” 1265 of “Agnes filia ducis Polonie comitissa de Wirtnwerg” and “V Kal Mar” in the same year of “Ulricus comes de Wirtenberg maritus prescripte dne”[59].

While out hunting in 1515 he murdered his stable master Hans von Hutten, whose wife he was trying to seduce. An Imperial warrant was issued against him. The Swabian league of cities, fearing Württemberg's rising power, expelled Ulrich from Württemberg and transferred the duchy to Emperor Karl V in 1520.

Ulrich was restored under the Treaty of Kaaden, but Württemberg was placed under the suzerainty of Austria (which lasted until 1599). Having converted to the Protestant religion in 1522-24, Ulrich imposed Lutheranism on the country after his restoration (the first evangelical service took place 16 May 1534 in Stuttgart) despite the presence of a large Catholic minority. He joined the Schmalkaldischen Bund in 1536. During the Schmalkaldischer War 1546-1547, Imperial troops invaded Württemberg, and Ulrich fled once more.

[“...Comes C. de Eichelberg...” witnessed the charter dated 1232 under which Heinrich VII King of Germany converted "villam Tatinriet" in "oppidum"[184]. It is uncertain whether “C” in this document represents the father of Graf Egino [I], or whether it is a mistranscription for “E” and refers either to Egino [I]’s father or Egino [I] himself. “...Comes E. de Aichelberc...” witnessed the charter dated 26 Oct 1232 issued by Heinrich VII King of Germany for Kloster Kreuzlingen[185]. As with the previous document, it is not known whether this charter refers to Egino [I] or his father.] m --- von Otterswang, daughter of MANEGOLD von Otterswang & his wife ---. “Rudolfus minister de Rammesperc” relinquished “curtem in Hallendorf”, which he held from “comite de Eichelberc” whose wife had inherited the property after the death of “patre domino Manegoldo de Otolfeswanc” and who now donated it to “S. Petro in Augia”, with the consent of “uxoris sue et filii sui comitis Egenonis, quem tunc unicum habebat”, by charter dated 1228[186]. --- & his wife had [two or more] children:

a) EGINO [I] (-before 1259). “Rudolfus minister de Rammesperc” relinquished “curtem in Hallendorf”, which he held from “comite de Eichelberc” whose wife had inherited the property after the death of “patre domino Manegoldo de Otolfeswanc” and who now donated it to “S. Petro in Augia”, with the consent of “uxoris sue et filii sui comitis Egenonis, quem tunc unicum habebat”, by charter dated 1228[187]. [“...Comes C. de Eichelberg...” witnessed the charter dated 1232 under which Heinrich VII King of Germany converted "villam Tatinriet" in "oppidum"[188]. It is uncertain whether “C” in this document represents the father of Graf Egino [I], or whether it is a mistranscription for “E” and refers either to Egino [I]’s father or Egino [I] himself. “...Comes E. de Aichelberc...” witnessed the charter dated 26 Oct 1232 issued by Heinrich VII King of Germany for Kloster Kreuzlingen[189]. As with the previous document, it is not known whether this charter refers to Egino [I] or his father.] Graf von Aichelberg. "E. comes de Aichelberc" confirmed an exchange of property by “ministerialis noster Hainricus miles de Otolswane” with Kloster Boze by charter dated 24 May 1237[190]. "Egeno comes de Aychelberc" donated property “apud Azenberc” to Kloster Boze by charter dated 24 May 1237, witnessed by “Otto de Otolveswanc...” [presumably a maternal relative of the donor][191]. "E. dictus comes de Aichilberc" renounced rights over property in favour of Kloster Adelberg by charter dated 1245[192]. m ---. The name of Egino’s wife is not known. The reference to “Merkenberg” in relation to her son suggests that she may have been heiress of this property. Egino [I] & his wife had one child:

i) DIEPOLD [I] von Merkenberg (-[1268/7 Mar 1270]). "...Diepoldi de Merkenbec..." witnessed the charter dated 19 Apr 1254 which records an exchange between Ulrich Graf von Württemberg and Heinrich Graf von Fürstenberg[193]. Graf von Aichelberg. “Diepoldus comes de Aichelberc” donated property “in villa Tagebrechtiswillar” to Kloster Salem, in compensation for damage caused by “pie memorie Egenone patre quondam suo”, by charter dated 1259[194]. m AGNES von Spitzenberg, daughter of EBERHARD Graf von Helfenstein & his wife --- (-after 7 Mar 1270). Her family origin and marriage are confirmed by the charter dated 7 Mar 1270 under which [her brother] "Ludewicus dictus comes de Spizzinberg et filius noster Eberhardus" sold property “in Beringin” to “sorori nostre Agneti quondam comitisse de Aichilberch”[195]. Her deceased husband is not named in this document, but the chronology suggests that it is more likely that he was Diepold [I] than Egino [I].

b) --- (-before 1228). The existence of other children, then deceased, is suggested by the wording of the charter dated 1228 quoted above.

Two brothers:

1. DIEPOLD [II] (-after 16 Jan 1289). Graf von Aichelberg. "D[iepoldus] comes de Aichelberg" confirmed a sale of property to Kloster Bebenhausen by charter dated 30 Apr 1272[196]. Assuming that the wife of Diepold [I] is correctly identified as suggested above, Diepold [II] was presumably his successor. The primary source which confirms his parentage has not been identified, although it looks likely that he was the son of Diepold [I]. "Graf Diepold von Aichelberg" donated property in Mannsberg to Kloster Baindt, for the souls of his parents, by charter dated 1282, sealed (in the absence of his own seal) by the seal of “Alberti comitis de Hohemberc avunculi mei”[197]. The latter is identified as Albrecht [II] "der Minnesänger" Graf von Hohenberg. The precise family relationship between the two has not been ascertained, although one possibility is that Graf Albrecht’s first wife (who has not otherwise been identified) was the aunt of Diepold [II] (either on his father’s or mother’s side of the family, depending on whether the term “avunculus” was used in its strict sense of maternal uncle or not). "Diepoldus et Ulricus de Aichelberg comites fratres" granted freedoms to property in Altbach by charter dated 8 Feb 1283[198]. "Diepoldus comes de Aichilberc..." witnessed the charter dated 16 Jan 1289 under which Hermann Herzog von Teck donated property to Kloster Kirchheim[199]. m ---. The name of Diepold’s wife is not known. Diepold [II] & his wife had one child:

a) UDILHILD von Merkenberg (-after 3 Feb 1305). "Udelhilt diu Grauinne, Grauen Frideriches…wirtinne von Zolre, des iungen der man da sprichet von Merchenberg und…Grave Friderich von Zolre der vorgenanten Gravinne sun" pledged Herrschaft Mühlheim to the bishop of Konstanz by charter dated 12 Apr 1303[200]. "Graue Friderich von Zolr dem da nemmet von Merkenberg…und unserre muter vrou Udelhilt" requested the cancellation of the pledge over Herrschaft Mühlheim by charter dated 3 Feb 1305[201]. m (before 15 Jun 1282) FRIEDRICH [I] von Zollern "von Merkenberg", son of FRIEDRICH [V] Graf von Zollern & his wife Udilhild von Dillingen (-[17 May 1302/12 Apr 1303]).

2. ULRICH (-after 8 Feb 1283). Graf von Aichelberg. "Diepoldus et Ulricus de Aichelberg comites fratres" granted freedoms to property in Altbach by charter dated 8 Feb 1283[202].

C. GRAFEN von BERG, MARKGRAFEN von BURGAU

The main centre of operations of the Grafen von Berg was near the town of Ehingen, on the river Danube, about 15 kilometres south-west of Ulm and about 40 kilometres south-east of Tübingen. The family acquired the Markgrafschaft von Burgau (about 20 kilometres east of Ulm) in the early 13th century, and the county of Schelklingen to the north of Ehingen in the mid-13th century. The Grafen von Berg enjoyed sufficient influence in the early 12th century to arrange marriages into the Polish and Bohemian royal families. The reason why a relatively obscure Swabian comital family was able to arrange these high profile marriages has not been explained. Stälin suggests that they were arranged by Otto Bishop of Bamberg who, before his appointment as bishop, had accompanied Judith of Germany (sister of Emperor Heinrich IV) for her marriage to Władysław Herman Prince of Poland and subsequently maintained his contacts with the eastern European Slavic rulers. Stälin speculates that Bishop Otto, whose family origin is not known with certainty, was closely related to the Berg family[203]. The family’s influence in imperial court circles persisted during the later 12th century with four of the sons of Diepold [II] being appointed bishops of Passau (two), Würzburg and Freising.

1. POPPO (-11 Jul ----, bur ---, transferred to Zwiefalten). Graf von Berg. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "V Id Jul" of "Bobbo com de Berge, pater Hainrici senioris comitis de Berge"[204]. m SOPHIA, daughter of --- (-26 Jun [1110], bur ---, transferred to Zwiefalten). Ortlieb's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names "Bobbonis comitis et Sophiæ ipsius uxori", when recording that their son Heinrich transferred their remains to Zwiefalten[205]. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "VI Kal Jul" of "Sophia com de Berge"[206]. Europäische Stammtafeln[207] shows Sophia, wife of Graf Poppo, as Zsófia of Hungary, daughter of Salomon King of Hungary. The source on which this is based has not so far been identified, but it appears unlikely chronologically. The granddaughter of Poppo and Sophia, Salome (second wife of Bolesław III Duke of Poland), was born "before 1101" which, assuming she was her parents' oldest child (which is not known), would place the birth of her father in [1080] at the latest. If it is assumed that her paternal grandmother bore her own first child at the early age of 15, this would still place Sophia's birth in [1065] at the latest, when the wife of King Salamon was only about 11 years old. Until further evidence comes to light, it is assumed that the Hungarian affiliation of Poppo's wife was originally proposed as a hypothesis to explain the unusual first name "Salome" borne by Sophia's supposed daughter and granddaughter. However, the necrologies of Swabian monasteries show that the name "Salome", although not common, did exist on its own, not as a female form of "Salamon", during this period. Poppo & his wife had three children:

a) HEINRICH [I] (-Zwiefalten 24 Sep before 1116, bur Zwiefalten). Ortlieb's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names "Heinricus de Berge" as son of "Bobbonis comitis et Sophiæ ipsius uxori"[208]. Graf von Berg. He became a monk at Zwiefalten. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "VIII Kal Oct" of "Heinricus com senior de Berge…sepultus in Capitolio...cum patre suo Poppone et fratribus suis" and his donation of “curiam Oppinthal”[209]. m ADELHEID von Mochental, daughter of [DIEPOLD [II] von Giengen Markgraf im Nordgau & his wife Liutgarde von Zähringen] (-1 Dec [1125]). The primary source which confirms her precise parentage has not yet been identified, although the following necrology entry indicates her possible family origin. It is, however, unusual for a deceased married lady to be referred to in contemporary necrologies with a comital title derived from her birth family. It is therefore possible that the reference to “Mochental” relates to an otherwise unrecorded second husband. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "Kal Dec" of "Adelheit com de Mochintal et c v, mater Salome ducisse"[210]. Heinrich & his wife had six children:

i) HEINRICH [II] (-24 Feb before 1127, bur Zwiefalten). Berthold's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names "Heinricus comes" as son of "Heinricus senior comes de Monte"[211]. Graf von Berg. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "VI Kal Mar" of "Heinricus n c m com iunior de Berge…huius sorores Salome ducissa, Richinza ducissa et Sophia ducissa" and his donation of “predium Anchilehouen”[212].

ii) DIEPOLD [II] (-19 May [1160/65]). His parentage is confirmed by the Translatio Manus sancti Stephani which names "Salome uxor [Bolezlai Bolionorum ducis] filia Heinrici comitis de Berge sororque Diepoldi"[213]. Graf von Berg.

- see below.

iii) RAPOTO (-25 Jun after 1163). Berthold's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names "Rapto eius alter filius [=Heinricus senior comes de Monte]"[214]. "…Diepoldo et fratre eius Rapotone comitibus de Berge…" signed the charter dated [1134/37] which records the foundation of Kloster Salem[215]. "…Comes Diepoldus de Berge ac frater suus Rapado…" witnessed the charter dated 14 Oct 1139 under which Konrad III King of Germany granted protection to the church of Denkendorf[216]. The History of Salem Monastery lists those present at a court of "duce Friderico", including "Diepoldo et fratre eius Rapotone comitibus de Berge", undated but dateable to [1152][217]. Graf von Berg. "Sex comites…comes Diepoldus et frater suus Rappoto…" witnessed the charter dated 1163 under which Ulrich Abbot of Reichenau confirmed donations to the abbey[218]. According to Europäische Stammtafeln, he was possible ancestor of the Grafen von Wartstein[219]. Presumably this is based on the coincidence of the name in the necrology of Zwiefalten which records the death "VII Kal Jul" of "Rapoto comes de Wartstein"[220].

iv) SALOME (before 1101-27 Jul 1144). The Chronica Boemorum names "Almuse" as wife of "dux Bolezlaus"[221]. Berthold's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names (in order) "Richinza ductrix Boemiæ, Sophia ductrix Moraviæ, Salome ductrix Poloniæ" as sisters of "Heinricus comes [et] Rapot", specifying that Salome was "uxor Bolezlaus dux Boloniæ"[222]. The Chronica principum Polonie records that the second wife of "Boleslaus" was "ex Theutunica"[223]. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "VI Kal Aug 1144" of "Salome ducisse Bolonie"[224]. m ([Mar/Jul] 1115) as his second wife, BOLESŁAW III "Krzywousty/Wrymouth" Duke of Poland, son of WŁADYSŁAW I HERMAN Prince of Poland & his second wife Judith of Bohemia (20 Aug [1086]-28 Oct 1138).

v) RICHINZA (-27 Sep 1125). Berthold's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names (in order) "Richinza ductrix Boemiæ, Sophia ductrix Moraviæ, Salome ductrix Poloniæ" as sisters of "Heinricus comes [et] Rapot", specifying in the subsequent paragraph that Richinza was "uxor Vlatizlaus qui et Lauzlan dux Boemiæ"[225]. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "V Kal Oct" of "Richinza ductrix Boemie filie Heinrici comitis senioris"[226]. m ([1110]) VLADISLAV I Duke of the Bohemians, son of VRATISLAV II Duke of the Bohemians & his third wife Swiętoslawa [Svatana] of Poland (-12 Apr 1125, bur Prague St Maria).

vi) SOPHIE (-31 May [1126]). Berthold's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names (in order) "Richinza ductrix Boemiæ, Sophia ductrix Moraviæ, Salome ductrix Poloniæ" as sisters of "Heinricus comes [et] Rapot", specifying in the subsequent paragraph that Sophia was "uxor Ottonis ducis"[227]. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "II Kal Jun" of "Sophia cv et ductrix Moravie, soror Salome ducisse"[228]. m (after 1113) OTTO II "Niger" Duke of Moravia in Olmütz und Brünn, son of OTTO I "der Schöne" Duke of Moravia in Olmütz and Brno & his wife Ludmilla [Euphemia] of Hungary (-28 Feb 1126).

b) [SALOME (-13 Jun ----). The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not been identified. The suspicion is that her suggested family origin is speculative, based on her supposed niece bearing the same unusual name. She became a nun at Zwiefalten. m (before 1103) HEINRICH von Emerkingen, son of --- (-5 Aug ----).]

c) DIEPOLD (-bur ---, transferred to Zwiefalten). Ortlieb's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names "parvuli filii [=Bobbonis comitis et Sophiæ ipsius uxori] Diepoldi", when recording that Graf Heinrich [I] transferred his remains to Zwiefalten[229].

DIEPOLD [II] von Berg, son of HEINRICH Graf von Berg & his wife Adelheid von Mochenthal (-19 May [1163/65]). His parentage is confirmed by the Translatio Manus sancti Stephani which names "Salome uxor [Bolezlai Bolionorum ducis] filia Heinrici comitis de Berge sororque Diepoldi"[230]. Graf von Berg. "…Diepoldo et fratre eius Rapotone comitibus de Berge…" signed the charter dated [1134/37] which records the foundation of Kloster Salem[231]. "…Comes Diepoldus de Berge ac frater suus Rapado…" witnessed the charter dated 14 Oct 1139 under which Konrad III King of Germany granted protection to the church of Denkendorf[232]. “Dipoldus comes et filius eius Bertholdus de Berge” witnessed a charter dated 1160 for the church of Roggenburg[233]. "Sex comites…comes Diepoldus et frater suus Rappoto…" witnessed the charter dated 1163 under which Ulrich Abbot of Reichenau confirmed donations to the abbey[234]. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "XIV Kal Jun" of "Diepoldus com de Monte…huius fuere sorores Salome, Sophia, Richinza ducisse"[235].

m GISELA von Andechs, daughter of BERTHOLD Graf von Andechs & his first wife Sophie of Istria (-8 Apr after 1150). The De Fundatoribus Monasterii Diessenses names "Gisilam comitissam de Perg" as one of the daughters of "Bertoldus comes de Andehs" and his wife Sophia, listed her last of their children[236]. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "VI Id Apr" of "Gisila com de Berge"[237].

Graf Diepold [II] & his wife had seven children:

1. BERTHOLD (-4 Sep, 1195 or after). “Dipoldus comes et filius eius Bertholdus de Berge” witnessed a charter dated 1160 for the church of Roggenburg[238]. Graf von Berg. “...Comes Bertholdus de Berge et frater eius Vlricus...” witnessed the charter dated 1166 under which Emperor Friedrich I confirmed an exchange of property with the archbishop of Magdeburg[239]. “...Bertoldus comes de Berge...” witnessed the charter dated 1185 under which Friedrich Duke of Swabia granted protection to Salem monastery[240]. “Bertholdus de Berge” witnessed the charter dated 11 Apr 1195 under which Konrad Duke of Swabia donated property to Kloster Salem[241].

2. ULRICH [I] (-22 Dec [1214]). “...Comes Bertholdus de Berge et frater eius Vlricus...” witnessed the charter dated 1166 under which Emperor Friedrich I confirmed an exchange of property with the archbishop of Magdeburg[242]. Graf von Berg. “Ex principibus: Udalricus comes de Berge” witnessed the charter dated 14 May 1172 under which Heinrich Bishop of Passau donated the church in Kirchdorf[243]. “Oudalricus comes frater episcopi...” witnessed the undated charter under which “sacerdos Wintherus” donated “predium Wischilburch” to Passau St. Nikolaus[244].

The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "XI Kal Jan" of "Udalricus com de Berge senior"[247]. Konrad Bishop of Konstanz confirmed a donation to Kloster Zwiefalten made by "bone memorie Ulrico quondam comite de Berga" by charter dated 31 May 1215[248]. This document suggests that Ulrich must have died recently, therefore late in the previous year assuming that his date of death is correctly stated in the Zwiefalten necrology. m UDILHILD von Ronsberg, daughter of HEINRICH Markgraf von Ronsberg & his wife --- (-9 or 10 Feb, after 1205). The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not yet been identified. “Vlricus comes de Berg cum uxore sua et filio suo Heinrico” exchanged property with Kloster Wettenhausen by charter dated 1205[249]. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "IV Id Feb" of "Uodilhilt com de Bergin uxor Uodalrici comitis"[250]. Graf Ulrich [I] & his wife had one child:

The primary sources which confirm the parentage and marriages of the following members of this family have not yet been identified, unless otherwise stated below.

HEINRICH [III] von Berg, son of ULRICH [I] Graf von Berg & his wife Udilhild von Ronsberg (-[28 Jun 1241/19 Oct 1244]). “Vlricus comes de Berg cum uxore sua et filio suo Heinrico” exchanged property with Kloster Wettenhausen by charter dated 1205[257]. Graf von Berg. “De Laycis: Heinricus comes de Perge” witnessed the charter dated 22 Apr 1208 under which Mangold Bishop of Passau confirmed donations to Kloster Göttweih[258]. Markgraf von Berg: the imperial authorisation for Heinrich [III] to adopt the margravial title has not been found, although the documents quoted below confirm that the title was acknowledged by the bishops of Konstanz and the emperor. Konrad Bishop of Constanz confirmed that "Heinricus marchio de Berga" had renounced rights in favour of Kloster Marchthal by charter dated 28 Apr 1215[259]. Markgraf von Burgau: “...Heinricus marchio de Burgou...” witnessed the charter dated 1218 under which Friedrich II King of Germany donated property to the church of Schardis[260]. "Hainrich der margrauffe von Burgrauff" confirmed the donation of land made by "Ulrich der Somler von Ulme" to the Teutonic Knights at Ulm by charter dated 9 Aug 1226[261]. “Heinricus marchio de Burgovve” donated property to Kloster Kaisheim by charter dated 1231, subscribed by “Heinricus senior marchio et filii sui Vlricus et Heinricus”[262]. “Heinricus marchio de Burgowe” donated property “in villa Kezze” to the church of Würzburg, with the consent of “consorte sua Adelheidi et filiis suis Ulrico et Heinrico”, by charter dated 11 Jan 1240[263].

m ADELHEID, daughter of --- (-after 1252). “Heinricus marchio de Burgowe” donated property “in villa Kezze” to the church of Würzburg, with the consent of “consorte sua Adelheidi et filiis suis Ulrico et Heinrico”, by charter dated 11 Jan 1240[264]. "Adilhadis quondam marchionissa…de Burgowe" donated property at Bierlingen to Kloster Kaisheim, for the soul of "bone memorie…mariti mei H. marchionis", with the consent of "H. marchionis de Burgowe nec non…Wl. comitis de Berge filiorum meorum", by charter dated 1252[265].

Graf Heinrich [III] & his wife had five children:

1. ULRICH [II] (-[15 Nov 1264/13 Dec 1267]). “Heinricus marchio de Burgovve” donated property to Kloster Kaisheim by charter dated 1231, subscribed by “Heinricus senior marchio et filii sui Vlricus et Heinricus”[266]. “Heinricus marchio de Burgowe” donated property “in villa Kezze” to the church of Würzburg, with the consent of “consorte sua Adelheidi et filiis suis Ulrico et Heinrico”, by charter dated 11 Jan 1240[267]. Graf von Berg. Heinrich Bishop of Constanz confirmed that "comes Vlricus de Berga" renounced rights in the Vogtei of Kloster Marchthal by charter dated 15 May 1242[268]. "Ulricus…comes de Berga" confirmed commitments made to Kloster Marchthal by "Heinricus marchio de Burgowe pater meus bone memorie" by charter dated 8 Mar 1249[269]. Graf von Schelklingen: “Heinricus marchio de Burgowe, Vlricus comes de Schelchelingen” witnessed the charter dated 6 Jul 1251 under which “[der] Graf Ulrich von Helfenstein [=Hellenstein] mit seinen Söhnen Degenhard und Ulrich” relating to the pledging of property in Nördlingen[270]. "Adilhadis quondam marchionissa…de Burgowe" donated property at Bierlingen to Kloster Kaisheim, for the soul of "bone memorie…mariti mei H. marchionis", with the consent of "H. marchionis de Burgowe nec non…Wl. comitis de Berge filiorum meorum", by charter dated 1252[271]. “Ulricus comes de Berge” donated his part of “decimæ in Volckersheim” by charter dated 15 Nov 1264[272]. m ---. The name of Ulrich’s wife is not known. Ulrich [II] & his wife had four children:

a) ULRICH [III] (-[10/11] Nov 1319). Graf von Berg. “Comes Ulricus de Berge, Heinricus et Egino fratres comitis” issued a charter dated 13 Dec 1267 concerning property at Maselheim[273]. “Ulricus...comes de Berge” exchanged property with “Sigboto und Rudolf von Hundersingen”, with the consent of “fratrum suorum Heinrici, Eginonis et Gebehardi”, by charter dated 3 Mar 1268[274]. "Hainricus…comes…de Schalkelingen" donated property to the Teutonic Knights of Ulm, with the consent of "Ulricus…frater noster comes de Schalkelingen", by charter dated 26 May 1270[275]. Schmid records that “Ulrich, Heinrich und Konrad Grafen Berg genannt von Schelklingen...mit ihrem Vater Ulrich” sold “daz halb Tail an der Burg und Stadt Calw” to Eberhard Graf von Württemberg by charter dated 1308[276]. m ---. The primary source which confirms the identity of Ulrich’s wife has not been identified. The following documents suggest that she was closely related to the comital families of Calw and Tübingen. Schmid quotes a charter dated 25 Nov 1301 issued by “Gotfridus C. de T.” at the request of “fratrum nostrorum Ulr. H. et Cun. comitum de Schaeklingen”[277], and in a charter dated 2 Apr 1302 “Gotfridus comes de Thuwingen“ recorded an alliance with Kloster Bebenhausen, noting among other matters that “nostri fratres --- comites de Schalkelingen” owed payments due to him “apud civitatem Calwe”[278]. Schmid also records that “Ulrich, Heinrich und Konrad Grafen Berg genannt von Schelklingen...mit ihrem Vater Ulrich” sold “daz halb Tail an der Burg und Stadt Calw” to Eberhard Graf von Württemberg by charter dated 1308[279]. The Tübingen family must also have sold their share in Calw to Württemberg at a later date as, in a charter dated 30 Dec 1345, “Grave Wilhalme von Tüwingen“ recorded that “Eberhart und Ulrich Gr. von W. gebrüder unser...Oheime” owed money for “der burg und stat zu Calwe”[280]. The most likely explanation for all these references is that Ulrich [III] married, as her second husband, --- von Calw, widow of Rudolf [I] Graf von Tübingen. If that is correct, their wife was presumably the daughter of Gottfried [II] Graf von Calw or possibly the granddaughter of Adalbert [VI] Graf von Calw. Ulrich [III] & his wife had four children:

i) LIUTGARD von Berg ([after 1272]-23 May after 1304). If Liutgard’s mother is correctly identified above as belonging to the Calw family, her marriage date suggests Liutgard must have been one of her parents’ oldest children. Another possibility is that she was born from an otherwise unrecorded earlier marriage of her father. The Chronicon Sindelfingensis records that Rudolf King of Germany attended “in vigil. Katrinæ...ad nuptias comitis Rudolfi Scerer dicti”[281]. “Lutgardis...Ulrici comitis de Schelkelingen filia...Rudolfi comitis palatini de Tuwingen dicti Schaerer comitissa” renounced rights over property “in Obernkilch et Rusten” given by her husband “propter nuptias” in favour of Kloster Bebenhausen, by charter dated 29 Aug 1293, witnessed by “Ulrici et Hainrici filiorum præfati Ulrici comitis...”[282]. “Rudolfus comes de Tuwingen dictus Schærer” sold “curias...in Altingen sitas dictas Oberfronhof et Niderfronhof...” to Bebenhausen, with the consent of “domine Liugardis comitisse de Schælklingen thori nostri...Cunradi, Ulrici et Hainrici comitum de Schælklingen [...sive de Berge] fratrum germanorum predicte consortis nostre” by charter dated 7 Jul 1299[283]. m (24 Nov 1286) RUDOLF [V] "der Scherer" Graf von Tübingen, son of RUDOLF [II] "der Scherer" Graf von Tübingen & his [second wife Adelheid von Eberstein] (-1317 or after).

It is unclear why Heinrich [IV], whom earlier charters indicate was the younger son of Graf Heinrich [III], inherited what appears to have been the more important title of Markgraf von Burgau, while his older brother Ulrich [II] retained the counties of Berg and Schalklingen. "Adilhadis quondam marchionissa…de Burgowe" donated property at Bierlingen to Kloster Kaisheim, for the soul of "bone memorie…mariti mei H. marchionis", with the consent of "H. marchionis de Burgowe nec non…Wl. comitis de Berge filiorum meorum", by charter dated 1252[299].

Heinrich [VI]”[307]. m ---. The primary source which confirms the name of Heinrich’s wife has not been identified. Heinrich [IV] & his wife had four children:

a) HEINRICH [V] (-[1283/1 Apr 1286]). “Marchionum de Burgawe patris...et filii” were named as present in the charter dated 7 Feb 1272 under which Otto abbot of Fultenbach granted property to “nobili viro domino Alberto de Vilibach”[308].

His absence from the 1 Apr 1286 quoted below, in which his father and his son are named, suggests that Heinrich [V] had died before that date. m ---. The primary source which confirms the name of Heinrich’s wife has not been identified. Heinrich [V] & his wife had two children:

i) HEINRICH [VI] von Burgau (-before 9 Oct 1301). “Heinricus marchio de Burgowe coadunata manu Heinrici nepotis sui” donated property “in villa Ramungen et in Lyndinawe cum jure patronatus...in villa Ellingen”, which “quondam soror sua --- comitissa de Lewenstein” had held, to “Trutwino abbati de Caesarea” [Kaisheim] by charter dated 1 Apr 1286[311]. “Heinrich der Markgraf von Burgau und Heinrich sein Enkel” donated property “eine Mühle und andrer Güter zu Suntheim”, the dowry of “Adelhaids der Tochter des alten Markgrafen”, to Kloster Medlingen by charter dated 6 Jul 1291[312].

The Chronicon Sindelfingensis records the marriage 23 Nov 1288 of “Alberti comitis et ---” and “marchionis de Burgo” [evidently some words missing][315]. Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by the charter dated 16 Aug 1295 under which "Margareta uxor…domini Hainrici de Burgowe" relinquished rights in Habsberg and Pfaffenhausen, with the consent of "patris nostri…domini Alberti Comitis de Hohenberc", by charter dated 16 Aug 1295[316]. Heinrich [VI] & his wife had two children:

(a) MARGARETA von Burgau (-after 1 Sep 1322). Margareta’s family origin is confirmed by the 1 Sep 1322 charter quoted below. Although the source which confirms her precise parentage has not been identified, the chronology indicates that she was the daughter of Markgraf Heinrich [VI]. “Hainrich von Hohenloch und...grefinne Elsebete des vorgenanten herren...husfrauwe” guaranteed property “ze Volkach” to “unser...oheim grave Hermanne von Kastel und unser...muem grefin Margrete sin...wirtin” by charter dated 13 Mar 1314[317]. “Groue Hermann von Kastel” confirmed his friendship with “Heinrichen von Hohenloch und siner...Wirtin Elsebeten”, in the presence of “...Burgrauen Friderichen von Nurenberch sinem...Oheim”, with the consent of “frawen Margereten siner...wirtin”, by charter dated 5 May 1318[318]. “Graue Hermann von Kastel udn Margret Greuinne ze Kastel” swore allegiance to “Burcgrave Fridrich ze Nurenberg” by charter dated 24 Jul 1321[319]. “Grave Friderich der elter und grave Herman der junger von Castel...gesammeter...unser...frawen...Elsebeten von Norrenberg und...Margareten von Burgawe” confirmed property by charter dated 1 Sep 1322[320]. m (before 13 Mar 1314) HERMANN Graf von Castell, son of HEINRICH [I] Graf von Castell & his [first/second wife Sophia von Oettingen/Adelheid von Nürnberg] (-before 30 Mar 1331).

She became a nun at Stetten im Gnadenthal after her husband died. The necrology of Urspring records the death "XII Kal Apr" of "Adelheid com de Teck"[322]. m (dispensation 1290) as his second wife, KONRAD Herzog von Teck, son of [KONRAD [I] Herzog von Teck & his wife ---] (-murdered [Frankfurt] 1/2 May 1292, bur Owen Marienkirche).

b) daughter . Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by the following document: [her daughter] “Gräfin Adelheid von Helfenstein” renounced rights in property “zu Ober-Dillingen”, sold by “ihr Gemahl Ulrich der jüngere von Helfenstein” to Augsburg, with the consent of “des Großvaters (avi) des Markgrafen Heinrich [III] von Burgau und des Vaters des Grafen Bertholds von Graispach”, by charter dated 31 Dec 1277[323]. m as his first wife, BERTHOLD [II] Graf von Graisbach, son of HEINRICH [IV] Graf von Lechsgemünd und Graisbach & his wife [Gertrud von Absberg] (-1308 or after).

Her marriage is indicated by the following document: “Rudolfus comes de Werdenberg cum filiis suis” renounced rights “ad bona caesariensia in Rammingen. Lindenau, Lerchenbühel, Wettingen, Ellingen und Nau” and donations made by “socero suo Heinrico Marchione de Burgowe” by charter dated 1307[325]. m RUDOLF [II] Graf von Werdenberg, son of HARTMANN [I] Graf von Werdenberg & his wife Elisabeth von Ortenberg (-1322).

d) LIUTGARD von Burgau (-before 13 May 1295). Her parentage and first marriage are confirmed by the charter dated 13 May 1295 under which Hermann Herzog von Teck donated property to Kloster Kircheim which had been pledged by his late brother Herzog Ludwig and his wife “Luitgard, der Tochter des Markgrafen von Burgau”[326]. Her second marriage is confirmed by the charter dated 14 May 1295 under which [her daughter] “Anna Graf Konrads von Landau Tochter”, with the agreement of her father, sold property which the late Ludwig Herzog von Teck and his wife the late Luitgard her mother had pledged to Kloster Kirchheim[327]. m firstly LUDWIG [II] Herzog von Teck, son of LUDWIG [I] Herzog von Teck & his wife --- (-[1 May 1280/20 Jul 1282]). m secondly KONRAD [II] Graf von Grüningen-Landau, son of HARTMANN [I] Graf von Grüningen & his [first/second wife Elisabeth ---/Hedwig von Veringen] (-after 24 Aug 1300).

3. --- . Her parentage and marriage are indicated by a source which records that [her son] Wilhelm Abbot of St. Gallen was the son of the sister of Heinrich Burggraf von Burgau[328]. Fickler indicates that her name was Elisabeth, based on the following necrology entry[329]: the necrology of Mehrerau records the deaths “XIV Kal Sep” (19 Aug) of “Elisabeth com^a. Hugo com. de Monteforti, qui in partibus transmarinis in insula Ctpro sepultus est 1363”[330]. Clearly this represents a misinterpretation as “Hugo com.” who died in 1363 could not be Hugo [II]. In addition, there is no link between the two entries “Elisabeth com^a” and “Hugo com...”: if there had been a link, Elisabeth’s name would have appeared after Hugo’s (presumably following “et uxor eius...” or similar). The conclusion is that the name of the wife of Hugo [II] remains unknown. m HUGO [II] Graf von Montfort, son of HUGO [I] Graf von Montfort [Tübingen] & his wife Mechtild --- (-[11 Aug] [1257/60]).

4. daughter . 1241/46.

5. SOPHIA (-before 1 May 1284).

D. GRAFEN von CALW

1. --- . No primary source has been identified which names the husband of [Adelheid] von Egisheim. m [ADELHEID] von Egisheim, daughter of HUGO [VI] Graf von Egisheim & his wife Heilwig von Dagsburg. Her origin is deduced from the Annalista Saxo naming "comitem Adalbertum" as son of the sister of Pope Leo IX[333], and more specifically the Historia Hirsaugiensis Monasterii naming "Leo papa avunculus eiusdem Adalberti [de Kalwa]"[334]. The primary source which confirms her name has not been identified. One child:

a) ADALBERT [II] (-Hirsau 22 Sep 1099, bur Hirsau). His mother’s identity is confirmed by the sources quoted above. The Annales of Berthold record that "comite Adalberto, uxore eius Wieldruda et filiis eorum" restored "Hirsaugiense cœnobium" in 1075[335]. Graf von Calw: the Annals of Lambert record that "Adalberto comite de castello…Calewo" captured "Diedericus episcopus Verdunensis" in 1077[336]. He founded Kloster Sindelfingen: a manuscript records that “comes quidam Albertus Axinbart, residens in castro Sindolphingen...cum uxore sua Wilcha” founded Sindelfingen, which was consecrated “IV Non Jun” 1083[337]. The accuracy of this source is unknown, doubts being introduced particularly because the same document names Uta, granddaughter of Adalbert [II] who married Welf Duke of Spoleto, as the daughter of Adalbert’s sister “Uota...ex quodam duce”, which is contradicted by other sources quoted below. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “Adalbertus comes senior de Kalwa” gave numerous properties to Hirsau with the consent of “uxore sua Wielicha filiisque suis Brunone, Adalberto, Gotefrido ac filiabus Uta et Irmingarde”[338]. Adalbert became a monk at Hirsau: the Chronicon of Bernold records the death "1099 X Kal Oct" of "Adelbertus comes…ex comite monachus factus" and his burial "in monasterio Hirsaugiæ"[339]. m WILTRUDIS, daughter of GODEFROI II "le Barbu" Duke of Upper Lotharingia & his first wife Doda --- (-1093, bur Hirsau). A manuscript records that “comes quidam Albertus Axinbart, residens in castro Sindolphingen...cum uxore sua Wilcha” founded Sindelfingen, which was consecrated “IV Non Jun” 1083[340]. The Historia Hirsaugiensis Monasterii names "Wieldrude" as wife of "Adalberti de Kalwa" but does not give her origin[341]. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “Adalbertus comes senior de Kalwa” gave numerous properties to Hirsau with the consent of “uxore sua Wielicha filiisque suis Brunone, Adalberto, Gotefrido ac filiabus Uta et Irmingarde”[342]. The Chronicon of Bernold records the death in 1093 of "uxor comitis Adelberti…Weliga, magni ducis Gotifredi filia" and her burial "apud Hyrsaugiense monasterium"[343]. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “Adalbertus comes senior de Kalwa” later gave property “ad Scaltebrunnen” to Hirsau “pro coniuge Wielicha et...pro filio Adalberto”, suggesting that both had predeceased the donor[344]. Adalbert [II] & his wife had five children:

i) BRUNO (-1099 or after). The Historia Hirsaugiensis Monasterii names (in order) "Brunone, Adalberto, Gotefrido ac filiabus Uta et Irmingarde" as children of "Adalberti de Kalwa et uxoris eius Wieldrude"[345]. Anti-bishop of Metz 1085/86.

ii) ADALBERT [III] (-3 Dec 1094). The Historia Hirsaugiensis Monasterii names (in order) "Brunone, Adalberto, Gotefrido ac filiabus Uta et Irmingarde" as children of "Adalberti de Kalwa et uxoris eius Wieldrude"[346]. The Chronicon of Bernold records the death "1094 III Non Dec" of "Adelbertus comes de Calva, iuvenis bonæ indolis"[347]. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “Adalbertus comes senior de Kalwa” later gave property “ad Scaltebrunnen” to Hirsau “pro coniuge Wielicha et...pro filio Adalberto”, suggesting that both had predeceased the donor[348]. m ---. The primary source which identifies Adalbert’s wife has not been identified. Adalbert [III] & his wife had one child:

(a) ADALBERT [IV] (-17 Mar after 1145). “Counradus Dux de Zaringen, Gotefridus comes palatinus de Calewo, Adelbertus Comes de Lewinstein fratruelis eiusdem Gotefridi palatini, Hugo comes de Tagesburc, Volmarus Comes de Huneburc, Willehelmus Comes de Lucelenburc, Addelbero Comes de Areburc et frater eius Herimannus et ipse Comes Counradus de Horeburc...” witnessed the charter dated 1123 under which Emperor Heinrich V [IV] confirmed the foundation of Alpirsbach monastery[349]. Graf von Löwenstein. Graf von Calw.

- see below.

iii) GOTTFRIED [I] (-6 Feb 1131). The Historia Hirsaugiensis Monasterii names (in order) "Brunone, Adalberto, Gotefrido ac filiabus Uta et Irmingarde" as children of "Adalberti de Kalwa et uxoris eius Wieldrude"[350]. Graf von Calw. Vogt von Hirsau 1095. He was installed in 1113 as Pfalzgraf von Lothringen [am Rhein]. A manuscript which records the foundation of Kloster Sindelfingen states that “advocatus noster erat Godefridus palantinus” in 1122[351]. “Counradus Dux de Zaringen, Gotefridus comes palatinus de Calewo, Adelbertus Comes de Lewinstein fratruelis eiusdem Gotefridi palatini, Hugo comes de Tagesburc, Volmarus Comes de Huneburc, Willehelmus Comes de Lucelenburc, Addelbero Comes de Areburc et frater eius Herimannus et ipse Comes Counradus de Horeburc...” witnessed the charter dated 1123 under which Emperor Heinrich V [IV] confirmed the foundation of Alpirsbach monastery[352]. m LIUTGARD von Zähringen, daughter of BERTHOLD II Herzog von Zähringen [Baden] & his wife Agnes von Rheinfelden. The Annales Sindelfingenses name "sorori suæ [=comes Albertus Axinbart, residens in castro Sindolphingen] Uotæ" as mother of "Uotam [uxorem Welphoni de Spoleto] et Lutgardam"[353]. This document appears garbled, considering the following source. The necrology of St Peter im Schwarzwald records the death "VIII Kal Apr" of "Liugart com soror ducis"[354]. Although this entry is cryptic, the only ducal family recorded in the other entries was that of Zähringen. On the basis of the information currently available, Liutgard sister of Duke Konrad I is the only member of the family with this name. The primary source which confirms her marriage more precisely has not yet been identified. Gottfried [I] & his wife had [three] children:

(a) GOTTFRIED (-6 Nov, before [1131], bur Sindelfingen). The necrology of Sindelfingen records the death “VIII Id Nov die S. Leonhardi” of “Gotfridus filius palatini, qui hic dormit”[355].

(b) [LIUTGARD . In a somewhat garbled section as noted above, the Annales Sindelfingenses name (in order) "Uotam [uxorem Welphoni de Spoleto] et Lutgardam" as daughters of "Uotæ", specifying that Liutgard "per vim iuncta fuit cuidam militia transalpine nomine Verli" by whom she had "Philippus præpositus ecclesiæ nostræ Sindelfingensis"[356]. Considering the source quoted below which records the parentage of her sister Uta, it is supposed that Liutgard was also the daughter of Pfalzgraf Gottfried. m --- Verli, son of ---.]

(c) UTA (-1196). The Annales Sindelfingenses name (in order) "Uotam [uxorem Welphoni de Spoleto] et Lutgardam" as daughters of "Uotæ"[357]. The Historia Welforum names "filiam Gotefridi…palatine de Kalwe, Outam" as wife of "Guelfo…frater…Heinrico duce"[358]. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “domna Uta soror Gotefridi palatini comitis” donated property “ad Heilbrunnen” to Kloster Hirsau but that “frater...eius Gotefridus palatinus comes...[et] domnus Welff dux qui filiam eius in coniugium acceperat” unjustly retained it, and that the latter “cum uxore et filio Welffone” later returned it at the request of “coniuge sua...Uta”, undated[359]. Herzogin von Schauenburg. She founded Kloster Allerheiligen in 1192. m (before Jan 1133) WELF [VI], son of HEINRICH "dem Schwarzen" Duke of Bavaria [Welf] & his wife Wulfhild of Saxony [Billung] ([16 Dec 1114/15 Dec 1116-Memmingen 15 Dec 1191, bur Steingaden). He was invested as Duke of Spoleto and Marchese of Tuscany in 1152.

iv) UTA . The Historia Hirsaugiensis Monasterii names (in order) "Brunone, Adalberto, Gotefrido ac filiabus Uta et Irmingarde" as children of "Adalberti de Kalwa et uxoris eius Wieldrude"[360]. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “domna Uta soror Gotefridi palatini comitis” donated property “ad Heilbrunnen” to Kloster Hirsau but that “frater...eius Gotefridus palatinus comes...” unjustly retained it[361].

v) IRMENGARD . The Historia Hirsaugiensis Monasterii names (in order) "Brunone, Adalberto, Gotefrido ac filiabus Uta et Irmingarde" as children of "Adalberti de Kalwa et uxoris eius Wieldrude"[362]. The primary source which confirms her marriage has not yet been identified. The necrology of Augiæ Maioris records the death "V Non Mai" of "Irmingart Rudolphi comitis [Brigantini] uxor"[363]. m as his first wife, RUDOLF Graf von Bregenz, son of ULRICH [X] Graf von Bregenz & his wife Bertha von Rheinfelden (-27/28 Apr 1160).

ADALBERT [IV] von Calw, son of ADALBERT [III] von Calw & his wife Kuniza von Willsbach (-17 Mar after 1145). Graf von Löwenstein. “Counradus Dux de Zaringen, Gotefridus comes palatinus de Calewo, Adelbertus Comes de Lewinstein fratruelis eiusdem Gotefridi palatini, Hugo comes de Tagesburc, Volmarus Comes de Huneburc, Willehelmus Comes de Lucelenburc, Addelbero Comes de Areburc et frater eius Herimannus et ipse Comes Counradus de Horeburc...” witnessed the charter dated 1123 under which Emperor Heinrich V [IV] confirmed the foundation of Alpirsbach monastery[364]. “Adalbertus comes de Lewenstein” donated property “in Sindringen” to Kloster Hirsau and “Adalbertus comes filius eius cum fratribus suis Bertoldo, Gotefrido et Conrado” donated property in the same place, undated[365]. Graf von Calw. "…Comes Adelbertus de Calva…" witnessed the charter dated 14 Oct 1139 under which Konrad III King of Germany granted protection to the church of Denkendorf[366]. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “Conradus de Wiler et frater eius Otto” donated property “ad Gruppenbach” to Hirsau, in the presence of “domni Sigefridi Spirensis episcopi et advocati nostri comitis Adalberti de Calwa”, witnessed by “Adalbertus filius prefati Adalberti, Gerhardus de Schowenburg frater Sigefridi episcopi, Ludewicus et Emmicho frater eius de Wirtenberg”, undated (dated to [1127/46][367]. “Adalbertus comes de Lewenstein et filius eius Albertus” witnessed the charter dated 1145 issued by Konrad III King of Germany for Kloster Allerheiligen in Schaffhausen[368].

The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “Fridericus dux, Adalbertus comes et Bertholdus frater eius de Calwa...” witnessed the donation of property “ad Witingen” to Kloster Hirsau, undated[374]. Stälin suggests that this donation is dated to before 1157[375]. However, given that “Fridericus dux” could be Friedrich II Duke of Swabia (died 1147), Friedrich III (Duke until 1152) or Friedrich [IV] (died 1167), the possible date range of the donation should be extended to “before 1167”. “Adalbertus comes et frater eius Conradus de Chaluwen” witnessed the charter dated 1188 issued by Friedrich V Duke of Swabia for Kloster Steingaden[376]. m ---. The name of Adalbert's wife is not known. Adalbert [V] & his wife had [three] children:

a) KONRAD [II] (-[1220] or after).

The name of Konrad's wife is not known. Konrad [II] & his wife had [two] children:

i) GOTTFRIED [II] (-before 1262). Graf von Calw. "G. de Veihingen et G. filius fratris sui, de Calwa comites" renounced rights in property in favour of the bishopric of Speyer by charter dated to [1232][378]. "G. de Veihingen et C. filius suus et G. filius fratris sui, de Calwa comites" donated property at Oewisheim to Kloster Maulbronn by charter dated 1232[379]. m UTA, daughter of --- (-after 1262). “Uta relicta...Gotfridi comitis de Calwe” donated property in Walddorf to Kloster Allerheiligen by charter dated 1262[380]. Gottfried [II] & his wife had [one possible child]:

(a) [--- von Calw . The following documents suggest that the mother of Gottfried Graf von Tübingen was closely related to the Berg and Calw comital families. Schmid quotes a charter dated 25 Nov 1301 issued by “Gotfridus C. de T.” at the request of “fratrum nostrorum Ulr. H. et Cun. comitum de Schaeklingen”[381], and in a charter dated 2 Apr 1302 “Gotfridus comes de Thuwingen“ recorded an alliance with Kloster Bebenhausen, noting among other matters that “nostri fratres --- comites de Schalkelingen” owed payments due to him “apud civitatem Calwe”[382]. Schmid records that Gottfried Graf von Tübingen sold “Burg und Stadt Böblingen und seinen Theil an Calw“ to Albrecht King of Germany, Duke of Austria who regranted the property as an imperial fief[383]. Schmid also records that “Ulrich, Heinrich und Konrad Grafen Berg genannt von Schelklingen...mit ihrem Vater Ulrich” sold “daz halb Tail an der Burg und Stadt Calw” to Eberhard Graf von Württemberg by charter dated 1308[384]. The Tübingen family must also have sold their share in Calw to Württemberg at a later date as, in a charter dated 30 Dec 1345, “Grave Wilhalme von Tüwingen“ recorded that “Eberhart und Ulrich Gr. von W. gebrüder unser...Oheime” owed money for “der burg und stat zu Calwe”[385]. The most likely explanation for all these references is that Rudolf [I] Graf von Tübingen and Ulrich [III] were successive husbands of the heiress of Calw. If that is correct, their wife was presumably the daughter of Gottfried [II] Graf von Calw or possibly the granddaughter of Adalbert [VI] Graf von Calw (see below). m firstly RUDOLF [I] Graf von Tübingen, son of WILHELM [I] Graf von Tübingen & his wife Willibirg --- (-before 1272). m secondly ULRICH [III] Graf von Berg, ).]

However, given that “Fridericus dux” could be Friedrich II Duke of Swabia (died 1147), Friedrich III (Duke until 1152) or Friedrich [IV] (died 1167), the possible date range of the donation should be extended to “before 1167”.

F. GRAFEN von GERHAUSEN

Gerhausen has not yet been identified. The donation to Schaffhausen, cited below, suggests that it may have been located in the south-east part of Württemberg near the border with present-day Switzerland. It is possible that the two counts named below belonged to a junior branch of one of the other local comital families. However, the names Hartmann and Adalbert were too common among late 11th/early 12th century nobility in Swabia to hazard a guess about the family to which they may have been related. No further references have been found to this comital family after 1116.

Two brothers:

Her parentage is suggested by the charter dated 1296 under which "Graf Albrecht von Hals" confirmed a donation to Fürstencelle by "Graf Rapot von Ortenberch, mein Schwager" by charter dated 1296[747]. According to secondary sources, the wife of Albrecht Graf von Hals at that time was the sister of Friedrich [IV] Graf von Truhendingen. Consistency with this charter requires a loose interpretation of the German "Schwager" (brother-in-law), but it is assumed that other primary sources (not yet identified) confirm the relationship. Friedrich [IV] & his wife had [four] children:

a) [WILLIBURGIS (-26/27 Jan before 1246). Europäische Stammtafeln suggests that she was the daughter of Friedrich [IV] Graf von Truhendingen[748]. The basis for this speculation is not known.

Her parentage is suggested by the charter dated 1296 under which "Graf Albrecht von Hals" confirmed a donation to Fürstencelle by "Graf Rapot von Ortenberch, mein Schwager" by charter dated 1296[753]. According to secondary sources, the wife of Albrecht Graf von Hals at that time was the sister of Friedrich [IV] Graf von Truhendingen not of Graf Rapoto. Consistency with this charter therefore requires a loose interpretation of the German "Schwager" (brother-in-law), but it is assumed that other primary sources (not yet identified) confirm the relationship. The Annales Osterhovenses record the death “circa festum beati Thome apostoli” 1308 of “domna Elyzabet comitissa de Hals, reliquens duos filios Albertum et Alrammum comites”[754].

Rudolf I King of Germany confirmed the agreement under which Eberhard Graf von Württemberg appointed "siner swester der vrowen von Troendigen" as his heir if he died childless, by charter dated [May] 1285[768]. Pope Nicholas IV granted a dispensation for the marriage of "Frederico comite de Truendigen" and "nobili muliere Agnete nata quondam Ulrici comitis de Wirtenberc" for 4^o consanguinity between themselves and between Friedrich and "quondam Conrado comiti de Oetingen olim viro ipsius Agnetis", dated 13 Jun 1288[769].

R. GRAFEN von TÜBINGEN, PFALZGRAFEN

The title "Pfalzgraf von Schwaben" was borne by the Grafen von Tübingen from 1146. The role of the holder of the title "Pfalzgraf", of which there was only one in each of the original German provinces, is not known although it was presumably related to a function at the ducal court similar to that of the palatine at the court of the Carolingian emperors[783]. Whatever the origin and original reason for the title, it became attached as an honorific to the name of the geographical base of the family who bore the title from time to time. Thus, the Tübingen holders of the title were most frequently referred to in contemporary sources as "Pfalzgrafen von Tübingen" instead of the more strictly correct "Pfalzgrafen von Schwaben, Grafen von Tübingen". According to Arnold[784], the Grafen von Dillingen held the Pfalzgrafschaft prior to 1146 but no trace of this has yet been found in the references to the Dillingen family in contemporary primary sources.

1. --- . m ---. An indication of one of her family connections is provided by the charter dated 1 Aug 1087 under which “Bobo” donated property in Gündringen to Kloster Reichenbach, in the presence of “trium comitum...Henrici de Tuingen” in whose county the property was situated “et fratris eius Hugonis et Hermanni eorundem materteræ filii”[785]. Her nephew (assuming that “matertera” can be interpreted in its strict sense of maternal aunt), Graf Hermann, has not otherwise been identified. Hermann was of course a common name among the Swabian nobility, although its association with the family of the Grafen von Sulz should be noted. Three children:

a) HUGO [I] (-after 2 May 1092). Graf von Tübingen. He and his brothers founded Kloster Blaubeuren in [1080/85][786]. “Bobo” donated property in Gündringen to Kloster Reichenbach, in the presence of “trium comitum...Henrici de Tuingen” in whose county the property was situated “et fratris eius Hugonis et Hermanni eorundem materteræ filii”, by charter dated 1 Aug 1087[787]. "Werinharius de Chilcheim…cum matre mea Richinza" appointed "Ottonis de Chirchberc" to donate property to Schaffhausen St Salvator by charter dated 2 May 1092, witnessed by "comites Hartmannus de Chirchberch, Hartmannus de Gerohusin, Hugo de Tuwingin, Hugo de Cravinegga, Manegoldus de Alshusin…"[788]. "Comes Hugo de Tovvingun" donated property "in Sindelingun" to Kloster Reichenbach, for the soul of "fratris sui Heinrici comitis" at the request of "Adelheidis comitisse uxoris eiusdem Heinrici comitis", undated[789]. Pope Urban II granted protection to Kloster Blaubeuren, founded by "Adelheidis comitisse...comitum Hainrici et Hugonis", by charter dated 25 Jan 1099[790].

b) HEINRICH (-2 Jan before 1103). Graf von Tübingen. Pope Urban II granted protection to Kloster Blaubeuren, founded by "Adelheidis comitisse...comitum Hainrici et Hugonis", by charter dated 25 Jan 1099[791]. The Necrologii Blauburani records the death "IV Non Ian" of "Heinricus com de Thubingen"[792]. m [as her first husband,] ADELHEID von Enzberg, daughter of ZEIZOLF von Enzberg Graf im Kraichgau & his wife --- (-11 Mar 1122, bur Kloster Sinsheim). The Annales Spirenses name "Adilheidis comitissa filius Ceizolfus comes" as wife of "Heinricum palatinum in Tuwingen", specifying that she was childless[793]. The Annales Spirenses record that "Adilheydis comitissa" travelled to Rome after the death of her uncle Bishop Johann to request his absolution from Pope Pascal II for having supported Emperor Heinrich "in scismate", which was granted on payment of a fine[794]. Pope Urban II granted protection to Kloster Blaubeuren, founded by "Adelheidis comitisse...comitum Hainrici et Hugonis", by charter dated 25 Jan 1099[795]. The Necrologii Blauburani records the donation "IV Id Nov" of "Adelheit com cum viro suo Heinrico comite de Tuwingen"[796]. "Adelheidis vidua Heinrici comitis de Touingen" donated property "in Sindelingun et dimidiam ecclesiam in Niferon iuxta Enze fluvium" to Kloster Reichenbach, undated[797]. The Chronicle of Sinsheim records the death in 1122 of "comitissa Adelheidis…benefactrix huius ecclesie" and her burial in the church between "Frideradam amitam patris sui et Adelam, Mechtildem et alias consanguineas suas"[798].

c) ANSELM (-25 Dec ----). 1078. The Necrologii Blauburani records the death "VIII Kal Ian" of "Anshelmus com"[799].

1. HUGO [II] von Tübingen, son of --- (-[1120]). Graf von Tübingen. [m [firstly/secondly] --- von Arnstein, daughter of LUDWIG [I] Graf von Arnstein/Lahn & his wife ---. The Vita Lodewici comitis de Arnstein records that "in castro Arnstein…comes…Lodewicus" had seven sisters, of whom the third married "Palatini comitis de Thuyngin"[800]. The identity of the husband of Hemma von Arnstein is not established beyond doubt. If he was Graf Hugo [II], the sources quoted below indicate that she would have been a second wife.] m [firstly/secondly] BERTHA, daughter of ---. The Historia Monasterii Marchtelanensis names "comitissa de Clementia" {Kellmünz an der Iller} as "ava" of "Hugonis palatini comitis de Tuwingen"[801]. "Hugo…comes palatinus de Tuingen" issued a charter dated 29 May 1173 relating to his earlier donation of the church of Bierlingen, inherited from "ava nostra Bertha bonæ memoriæ comitissa de Clementia", to Kloster Marchtal[802]. These documents do not specify whether they refer to Pfalzgraf Hugo´s paternal or maternal grandmother. However, the name of his maternal grandmother, mother of Hemma von Zollern, appears to be well-established. It is therefore probable that Bertha was his paternal grandmother, wife of Graf Hugo [II]. Graf Hugo [II] & [his wife Bertha] had one child:

a) HUGO [III] (-1152 before 19 Aug). Graf von Tübingen. "Marchio Hermannus de Badun, Comes de Lewenstein Adalbertus, Comes Hugo de Duvingun et æquinomius Filius eiusdem…" witnessed the charter dated 1139 under which Konrad II King of Germany issued a charter for “Wormatiensis...Folmarus...ecclesiæ filius”[803]. "…Comes Hugo de Duingen…" witnessed the charter dated 14 Oct 1139 under which Konrad III King of Germany granted protection to the church of Denkendorf[804]. The History of Salem Monastery lists those present at a court of "duce Friderico", including "Hugone comite palatino de Tuwingen", undated but dateable to [1152][805]. Pfalzgraf. “H. palatinus de Tvingen” witnessed the charter dated to [1149/52] which records the foundation of Kloster Herrenalb[806]. m HEMMA von Zollern, daughter of FRIEDRICH [I] Graf von Zollern & his wife Udalhild [von Urach] (-20 Feb ----). A 13th century genealogy refers to the two daughters of "Burchardus comes de Zolre" as "matrem palentini de Tuwig et alteram [uxorem] Werenherus comes"[807]. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “Gemma comitissa de Tuwingen cum filiis suis Heinrico et Hugone” donated property “ad Eckenwiler” to Kloster Hirsau, for the soul of “marito suo Hugone”, undated[808]. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "X Kal Mar" of "Hemma com"[809]. Graf Hugo [III] & his wife had [four] children:

i) FRIEDRICH (-25 Oct [1162/63]). Pfalzgraf von Tübingen. “Fridericus palatinus comes de Tuwinge” witnessed the charter dated 19 Aug 1152 under which Friedrich I King of Germany confirmed an agreement between Simon Graf von Saarbrücken and Kloster Schwarzach[810]. “Fridericus palatinus de Tuingen, frater eius comes Hugo” witnessed the charter dated 1154 issued by Friedrich I King of Germany for Kloster Kreuzlingen[811]. “Fridericus palatinus de Tubingen, Hugo comes frater eius” witnessed the charter dated 24 Nov 1162 issued by Friedrich I King of Germany for Kloster Kreuzlingen[812]. The fact that his brother Hugo was named as Pfalzgraf in a charter dated only three days later (see below) suggests that this document may have been finalised after Friedrich’s death. The Necrologii Blauburani records the death "VIII Kal Nov" of "Fridericus palatinus Thubigensis"[813].

ii) HUGO [IV] (-18 Dec 1182). "Marchio Hermannus de Badun, Comes de Lewenstein Adalbertus, Comes Hugo de Duvingun et æquinomius Filius eiusdem…" witnessed the charter dated 1139 under which Konrad II King of Germany issued a charter for “Wormatiensis...Folmarus...ecclesiæ filius”[814]. Pfalzgraf von Tübingen.

- see below.

iii) HEINRICH (-killed in battle Italy 7 Apr 1167). A 13th century genealogy names (in order) "Hugonem palatinum et Heinricum de Ruke et Itam" as children of "comiti de Tuwig" & his wife "[filiam Burchardi comitis de Zolre]"[815]. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “Gemma comitissa de Tuwingen cum filiis suis Heinrico et Hugone” donated property “ad Eckenwiler” to Kloster Hirsau, for the soul of “marito suo Hugone”, undated[816]. A charter dated [Sep 1164] records that, during the war between "Welfonem ducem" and "Hugonem comitem", Kloster Hirsau was invaded by "Heinricus prefati comitis germanus", the abbot then requesting protection from the bishop of Konstanz[817]. The necrology of Zwiefalten records the death "VII Id Apr" of "Heinricus com de Duwingin"[818].

iv) [ITA . A 13th century genealogy names (in order) "Hugonem palatinum et Heinricum de Ruke et Itam" as children of "comiti de Tuwig" & his wife "[filiam Burchardi comitis de Zolre]", specifying that Ita married "comiti Eberhardo de Nelenburch"[819]. It does not appear that this can be correct. According to Europäische Stammtafeln[820], Eberhard I "der Selige" Graf von Nellenburg died [1076/79] and his wife Ita (whose origin is not given) after 1105. Even if the husband of Hemma von Zollern was Hugo [II] instead of Hugo [III], this would still be chronologically inconsistent with Ita's alleged maternal Zollern grandparents dying in the 1130s. It is of course possible that the 13th century genealogy confused two generations and that Ita was in fact the sister of Hugo [II] Graf von Tübingen not his daughter or granddaughter.]

HUGO [IV] von Tübingen, son of HUGO [III] Graf von Tübingen, Pfalzgraf & his wife Hemma von Zollern (-18 Dec 1182). "Marchio Hermannus de Badun, Comes de Lewenstein Adalbertus, Comes Hugo de Duvingun et æquinomius Filius eiusdem…" witnessed the charter dated 1139 under which Konrad II King of Germany issued a charter for “Wormatiensis...Folmarus...ecclesiæ filius”[821]. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “Gemma comitissa de Tuwingen cum filiis suis Heinrico et Hugone” donated property “ad Eckenwiler” to Kloster Hirsau, for the soul of “marito suo Hugone”, undated[822]. Graf von Tübingen: “Hugo comes de Thuingen” witnessed a charter of Friedrich I King of Germany for Kloster Erstein dated 12 Jul 1153[823]. “Fridericus palatinus de Tuingen, frater eius comes Hugo” witnessed the charter dated 1154 issued by Friedrich I King of Germany for Kloster Kreuzlingen[824]. “Fridericus palatinus de Tubingen, Hugo comes frater eius” witnessed the charter dated 24 Nov 1162 issued by Friedrich I King of Germany for Kloster Kreuzlingen[825]. Pfalzgraf von Tübingen. “Hugo palatinus comes de Tuingen” witnessed the charter dated 27 Nov 1162 under which Friedrich I King of Germany confirmed an exchange of property involving Kloster Pforta[826]. "Hugo palatinus comes de Tuwingen cum…coniuge mea Elyzabeth et filiis nostris" founded Kloster Marchthal by charter dated 1 May 1171[827]. "Hugo…comes palatinus de Tuingen" issued a charter dated 29 May 1173 relating to his earlier donation of the church of Bierlingen, inherited from "ava nostra Bertha bonæ memoriæ comitissa de Clementia", to Kloster Marchtal[828]. "Hugo…comes palatinus de Tuwingen" donated property to Kloster Marchthal for the entry of "Rudolfus filius noster" by charter dated 29 Jul 1180[829]. "Comitis Ottonis de Hohemberch…cum duobus filiis quorum senior Eberhardus, iunior Otto" confirmed an exchange of property between Kloster Roth and their ministerialis "milite de Lupheim…Bertoldo" by charter dated 12 May 1181, witnessed by "…palatinus comes Hugo de Thuwingen et filius eius comes Rudolfus…"[830]. The necrology of Augiæ Maioris records the death "XV Kal Jan" of "Hugo com"[831].

m (before 7 Feb 1158[832]) ELISABETH von Bregenz, daughter of RUDOLF Graf von Bregenz [Udalrichinger] & his second wife Wulfhild of Bavaria [Welf] (-20 Mar ----, after 1 Jun 1216). The Historia Monasterii Marchtelanensis names "Elisabet filiam…comitis domini Rudolfi de Bregantia" as the wife of "Hugonis palatini comitis de Tuwingen", specifying that she was "ducis Welphonis…sororis filiam"[833]. Heiress of Montfort and Bregenz. "Hugo palatinus comes de Tuwingen cum…coniuge mea Elyzabeth et filiis nostris" founded Kloster Marchthal by charter dated 1 May 1171[834].

The necrology of Augiæ Maioris records the death "IV Kal Apr" of "Elisabet com"[836].

Pfalzgraf Hugo [IV] & his wife had three children:

1. HEINRICH (-after 1171). The Historia Monasterii Marchtelanensis names "comes de Tuwingen Hainricus, filius fundatoris nostri" when recording that he was "leprosus effectus" and that he made a donation to the monastery when near death[837]. Heinrich presumably predeceased his father.

2. RUDOLF [I] (-9 Apr 1219, bur Bebenhusen). "Hugo…comes palatinus de Tuwingen" donated property to Kloster Marchthal for the entry of "Rudolfus filius noster" by charter dated 29 Jul 1180[838].

The Historia Monasterii Marchtelanensis records the donation by "dominus Rudolfus palatinus comes, filius fundatoris nostri" and his death "1219 V Id Apr" and burial "in Bebinhusen"[846]. The necrology of Augiæ Maioris records the death "V Id Apr" of "Rudolphus palatinus"[847]. m (before 30 Jul 1181) MECHTILD von Gleiberg Gräfin von Giessen, daughter and heiress of WILHELM Graf von Gleiberg & his wife Salome --- (-12 Jan after 1203). “Rudolfus...palatinus comes de Tvvingen” founded Kloster Bebenhausen, with the consent of “jugalis nostre Machtildis et liberorum nostrorum”, by charter dated 30 Jul 1191[848]. "Domini de Metricha…Henricus comes de Nassowe et nepos suus Walramus, Anselmus de Moluisberg, Solomena…matrona cum filia sui Metildi et genero suo Rodulpho Palatino comité de Tuingen" donated "terram…super ripam Mosellæ in loco…Rore" to Himmenrode monastery, with the consent of "hæredes eorum…prefatus Rodulphus Palatinus comes de Tuingen et filii sui Hugo, Rodolphus et Wilhelmus, Henricus junior comes de Sayne, Robertus et Henricus filii prædicti Walrami comitis de Nassowe, Everhardus bourchgravius de Arberg et uxor sua Adeleidis de Moluisberg", by charter dated 1206[849]. Her relationship to the Gleiberg family is indicated by the charter dated 1229 under which [her son] “Wilhelmus comes palatinus de Tubingen” confirmed an agreement between Kloster Shiffenberg and “nobilibus viris de Gliberg Wilhelmo et Ottone nostris consanguineis” concerning the church in Steinbach[850]. Pfalzgraf Rudolf [I] & his wife had [four] children:

a) [GOTTFRIED (-6 Nov ----, bur Sindelfingen). Pfalzgraf. The Annales Sindelfingenses record the death "VIII Id Nov" of "Gotfridus filius palatini" specifying that he was buried in Sindelfingen[851]. His precise parentage is unknown but he may have been another son of Rudolf [I].]

b) HUGO [V] (-1227 or after). "Domini de Metricha…Henricus comes de Nassowe et nepos suus Walramus, Anselmus de Moluisberg, Solomena…matrona cum filia sui Metildi et genero suo Rodulpho Palatino comité de Tuingen" donated "terram…super ripam Mosellæ in loco…Rore" to Himmenrode monastery, with the consent of "hæredes eorum…prefatus Rodulphus Palatinus comes de Tuingen et filii sui Hugo, Rodolphus et Wilhelmus, Henricus junior comes de Sayne, Robertus et Henricus filii prædicti Walrami comitis de Nassowe, Everhardus bourchgravius de Arberg et uxor sua Adeleidis de Moluisberg", by charter dated 1206[852].

The name of Hugo's wife is not known. Pfalzgraf Hugo [V] & his wife had [one child]:

i) [KONRAD [I] (-before 1253). His parentage has not been confirmed. The dispensation for the second marriage of his supposed widow suggests that he may have been the son of Hugo [V]: no record has been found of Wilhelm [I], brother of Hugo [V], and his descendants having borne the title Pfalgraf, and there appears to be no suitable candidate for “C” among the descendants of Pfalgraf Rudolf [II]. It appears therefore that Konrad succeeded Hugo [V] as Pfalzgraf and could therefore have been his son. He is named in the 26 Feb 1283 charter of his daughter quoted below. Pfalzgraf von Tübingen. m as her first husband, MECHTILD von Hohenlohe, daughter of KONRAD von Hohenlohe Herr von Brauneck & his wife --- (-1293). She married secondly (Papal dispensation 10 Dec 1253) Ruprecht von Dürn. Pope Innocent IV issued a dispensation for the marriage of “M. relicta quondam C. comitis palatini de Tuingen” and “R. domino de Durne”, despite their 4^o consanguinity, dated 10 Dec 1253[856]. “Rupertus de Durne communicata manu uxoris mee Mehtildis” donated “duas partes decime in Ruchesheim” to Seligenthal by charter dated 28 Aug 1277, sealed by “Ulrici fratris mei et Bopponis fratruelis mei”[857]. She is named in the 26 Feb 1283 charter of her daughter quoted below. Pfalzgraf Konrad [I] & his wife had one child:

(a) ELISABETH von Tübingen (-after 4 May 1301). “Elisabeth comitissa de Eberstein et de Tuwingen” bequeathed property “apud Horwe” to Reichenbach, with the consent of “mariti nostri Ottonis nobilis de Eberstein patruorum nostrorum Ottonis et Ludovici comit.

Palatini patris nostri et Mechtildis matris nostræ”, by charter dated 26 Feb 1283, witnessed by “avunculi nostri Albertus et Burchardus com. de Hochinberg...”[858].

Heinrich Bishop of Konstanz confirmed the sale by "comes Willehelmus de Tuwingen, Rudolfus et Ulricus filii sui" of the Vogtei of Kloster Marchthal to the bishopric by charter dated 11 Jun 1241[950]. Eberhard Bishop of Konstanz sold property to "comiti Ul. de Wirtenberc" by charter dated 1 Jul 1251, which names “nobilibus viris R. de Asperc et Ul. fratri suo et R. de Tuwingen comitibus, marito sororis sue”[951]. Graf von Tübingen in Böblingen. "Fratres Rudolfus comes de Twingin et Ulricus comes de Asperc" confirmed the donation of property in Habsthal made by "H. et R. comitum de Twingin patruelium nostrorum" to Kloster Mengen by charter dated [20 May] 1259, with the approval of "R. marchio de Baden"[952]. “Ul. et Rudolfus comites de Tuwingen” sealed a charter dated 1271 under which “Wolpoto de Ror...” reached agreement with Sindelfingen concerning “advocatiam in Mouchingen”[953]. It is likely that Rudolf died before 1272, the date of a charter under which [his brother] “Ulricus comes de Tuwingen” acted alone[954]. This suggestion is also consistent with the likely date of the second marriage of Rudolf’s widow, assuming that she was a member of the Calw family as suggested below and that she was the mother of Liutgard von Berg whose marriage is dated to 1286.

m ---. The primary source which confirms the identity of Rudolf’s wife has not been identified. The following documents suggest that she was closely related to the comital family of Calw. Schmid quotes a charter dated 25 Nov 1301 issued by [her son] “Gotfridus C. de T.” at the request of “fratrum nostrorum Ulr. H. et Cun. comitum de Schaeklingen”[955], and in a charter dated 2 Apr 1302 “Gotfridus comes de Thuwingen“ recorded an alliance with Kloster Bebenhausen, noting among other matters that “nostri fratres --- comites de Schalkelingen” owed payments due to him “apud civitatem Calwe”[956]. Schmid records that Gottfried Graf von Tübingen sold “Burg und Stadt Böblingen und seinen Theil an Calw“ to Albrecht King of Germany, Duke of Austria who regranted the property as an imperial fief[957]. Schmid also records that “Ulrich, Heinrich und Konrad Grafen Berg genannt von Schelklingen...mit ihrem Vater Ulrich” sold “daz halb Tail an der Burg und Stadt Calw” to Eberhard Graf von Württemberg by charter dated 1308[958]. The Tübingen family must also have sold their share in Calw to Württemberg at a later date as, in a charter dated 30 Dec 1345, “Grave Wilhalme von Tüwingen“ recorded that “Eberhart und Ulrich Gr. von W. gebrüder unser...Oheime” owed money for “der burg und stat zu Calwe”[959]. The most likely explanation for all these references is that Rudolf [I] married, as her first husband, --- von Calw, who married secondly Ulrich [III] Graf von Berg. If that is correct, their wife was presumably the daughter of Gottfried [II] Graf von Calw or possibly the granddaughter of Adalbert [VI] Graf von Calw (see below).

Rudolf [I] & his wife had children:

1. GOTTFRIED von Tübingen ([before 1262]-25 Jan 1316). Graf von Tübingen in Böblingen. The Chronicon Sindelfingensis records that “comes Gotefridus” violently expelled “Uol. comitem de civitate Bebelingen et de tutela omnino” in 1278 [“ea die”, difficult to interpret precisely but mid-year from the context][960]. This passage suggests that Gottfried was old enough to assert that he had reached the age of majority. The Chronicon provides no other details to explain the reasons behind the quarrel. “Gotfridus...comes de Tuingen“ confirmed the sale of property to Kloster Bebenhausen made by “Friderico milite seniore de Echterlingen...” by charter dated 1 Jun 1280[961]. The Chronicon Sindelfingensis records that 5 Aug 1280 “comes Gotefridus de Bebelingen aut de Túwingen” invaded “Bebenhusam” and stole “aurum et argentum”[962]. “Eberhardus comes de Tuwingen dictus Scharer“ donated property to Kloster Bebenhausen, with the consent of “Rudolfo fratri nostro, Gotfrido patrueli nostro comitibus”, by charter dated 6 Oct 1294[963]. “Gotefridus comes de Tuwingen” renounced rights in property “in villa Altingen”, sold by “Rudolfo comite de Tuwingen dicto Schaerer patruele nostro” to Bebenhausen, by charter dated 25 Nov 1301[964]. “Grave Gotfried von Tuw.“ confirmed arrangements for Bebenhausen, with the consent of “unser...vrowe...Elsbete von Fürstenberg et unser Sun Grave Wilhelme”, by charter dated 13 Dec 1311[965]. “Gotfrido comiti“ granted rights to Bebenhausen, with the consent of “comitis Gotfridi suique filii Wilhelmi”, by charter dated 18 Dec 1312[966].

Gotfried“ renounced rights “ze Bliningen” in favour of Kloster Bebenhausen, with the consent of “unser swester Suon Graven Rudolf von Hohenberg, Herzog Cunrat von Urselingen...”, by charter dated 13 Sep 1319[971].

He is named as deceased in his son Gottfried’s 1329 charter quoted below. m HEILIKA von Eberstein, daughter of HEINRICH [I] Graf von Eberstein & his wife Klara von Frundsberg. Schmid records that Graf Wilhelm sealed a charter dated 1318 with his father-in-law Heinrich [I] Graf von Eberstein[975]. Wilhelm & his wife had five children:

S. HERREN, HERZÖGE von URSLINGEN

The family name “Urslingen” derives from Irslingen, a village located in the Black Forest about 15 kilometres due south of Sulz am Neckar, in the south-central part of the present German state of Baden-Württemberg. Bronner records an unconfirmed report (“eine alte beharrliche Sage gibt an...”) that two brothers, related to the dukes of Spoleto, were expelled from Rome and settled in Germany, where one built the castle of Urslingen while the other settled in Alsace and was ancestor of the Rappoltstein family[1005]. The primary sources which confirm the connection between the Urslingen family and Rappoltstein in Alsace (see the document ALSACE) have not been identified. Karl Albrecht, in his Rappoltsteinisches Urkundenbuch, indicates that the earlier Rappoltstein family became extinct in the male line with the death of Reinhard Provost of Strasbourg and names Egenolf von Urslingen (see below) as the ancestor of the second Rappoltstein family[1006]. However, Albrecht, in his summary of the history of the Urslingen family, highlights the absence of surviving primary sources which connect Rappoltstein with Egenolf[1007]. He reproduces numerous charters witnessed by Egenolf von Urslingen, dated between 1162 and 1188, and by Egenolf’s son Ulrich, dated between 5 Oct 1186 and 15 Aug 1193, none of which links either Egenolf or Ulrich to Rappoltstein[1008]. Egenolf was active in Alsace, as shown by the Annales Argentinenses which record in 1178 a battle “in Lagelnheim iuxta Columbariam” between “Cunone de Horburg et Egelolfo de Urselingen”[1009]. Bronner also highlights the similarity between the arms of Urslingen and Rappoltstein[1010]. Albrecht suggests that Emma daughter of Adalbert von Rappoltstein may have married Egenolf[1011]. However, if that is correct, the absence of references to Rappoltstein in any of Egenolf’s charters is even more surprising. In addition, no reference has been found to the names Reginbold and Reinhard, used in the earlier Rappoltstein family, among the known descendants of the later family. Albrecht does cite a later source from Kloster Päris which names “Egenolf von Urslingen alias Rapoltstein”[1012] and a necrology which names “Ulricus de Rappoltstein, Guta uxor, Egelolfus et Anselmus filii”[1013], but it is difficult to know what weight to attach to these later documents.

1. EGENOLF von Urslingen (-[1188/89]). “Egenolfus de Urselingen” witnessed the charter dated 8 Jul 1163 issued by Emperor Friedrich I for Mauermünster abbey[1014]. The Annales Argentinenses which record in 1178 a battle “in Lagelnheim iuxta Columbariam” between “Cunone de Horburg et Egelolfo de Urselingen”[1015]. “...Egelolfus de Ursilingen” subscribed the charter dated “VII Id Mai” 1179 under which Emperor Friedrich I records a dispute the citizens of Besançon and the archbishop[1016]. “...Dominus Egelolfus de Urselinge et Olricus filius eius...” witnessed the charter dated 1185 under which Emperor Friedrich I settled a dispute involving the church of Colmar Saint-Pierre[1017]. “...Egelolfo de Urselingen...” witnessed the charter dated 1188 under which Henri Bishop of Strasbourg confirmed the renunciation of judicial rights “in territorio Morswilre” made by “dominus Conradus de Hadestat”, and after his death confirmed by “filiis suis...fratres Wernherus, Conradus, Eppo”[1018]. m ---. The primary source which confirms the name of Egenolf’s wife has not been identified. Egenolf & his wife had two children:

a) ULRICH von Urslingen (-after 15 Aug 1193). “...Dominus Egelolfus de Urselinge et Olricus filius eius...” witnessed the charter dated 1185 under which Emperor Friedrich I settled a dispute involving the church of Colmar Saint-Pierre[1019]. “...Ulricus de Urselingen...” witnessed the charter dated 1189 under which Heinrich VI King of Germany confirmed property to the church of Sion[1020]. As noted in the introduction to the present section, Albrecht reproduces numerous charters witnessed by Egenolf’s son Ulrich dated between 5 Oct 1186 and 15 Aug 1193[1021].

b) son . A charter dated 1185 names “puer...ecclesie majoris canonicus” (referring to Strasbourg) and “dominus Egelolfus de Urselingen pater iam dicti pueri”[1022].

The chronology suggests that Konrad von Urslingen could have been the brother or cousin of Egenolf von Urslingen who is named above. The primary source which confirms his parentage has not been identified.

1. KONRAD [I] von Urslingen [von Lützelinhard?] (-1202). [The Burchardi et Cuonradi Urspergensium Chronicon records in 1168 that “Cuonrado de Luzelinhart” was granted “marchiam...Anconæ et principatum Ravennæ”[1023]. It is unclear whether this was the same person as Konrad von Urslingen.] The Rappoltsteinisches Urkundenbuch lists numerous charters which name Konrad von Urslingen (without providing further family details) dated between 6 Mar 1172 and 1199, as well as a letter of Pope Innocent III recording his death in 1202[1024]. Duke of Spoleto. “Chonradus dux Spoleti” witnessed the charter dated 20 Jun 1183 issued by Emperor Friedrich I for Kloster Salem[1025]. “Conradus dux Spoleti...” witnessed the charter dated 27 Sep 1185 issued by Emperor Friedrich I for the citizens of Spoleto “ad preces...ducis Spoleti”[1026]. The Sigonii de regno Italiæ records that in 1195 Emperor Heinrich VI appointed “Marcoaldum” as “ducem Ravennæ et marchionem Anconæ” and “Conradum” as “Spoleti ducem”[1027]. m ---. The name of Konrad’s wife is not known. Konrad [I] & his wife had two children:

a) REINHOLD [I] von Urslingen (-before 3 Dec 1253). Duke of Spoleto [1223]: "...Reinaldus dux Spoleti..." witnessed the charter dated Mar 1223 under which Emperor Friedrich II confirmed the privileges of Bero monastery in Aargau[1028]. The Ryccardus de Sancti Germano Chronica records that "Raynaldus dux Spoleti cum imperiali gente" besieged "dominos Popliti in Capitinnano" and afterwards entered "Marchiam" while "Bertoldus frater eius" remained "circa Nursie provinciam" , in 1226[1029]. The Ryccardus de Sancti Germano Chronica records that Pope Gregory IX excommunicated "Raynaldum…ducem Spoleti et Bertoldum fratrem eius" in 1230 (4 Apr inserted in the margin of the edition consulted)[1030]. The Ryccardus de Sancti Germano Chronica records that "Rayndaldus dictus dux Spoleti" was captured on the emperor´s orders "aput Fogiam" in May 1231[1031]. The Ryccardus de Sancti Germano Chronica records that "Bertoldus" surrendered "Introducum" in Jul 1233 and that he and his brother went into exile[1032].

b) BERTHOLD von Urslingen (-before 24 Jun 1251). “Bertuldus filius q. ducis Conradi” was named in the charter dated 1 Jan 1223 issued by Emperor Friedrich II for Ancona[1033]. The Ryccardus de Sancti Germano Chronica records that "comes Raynaldus filius Raynaldi de Barato" held "Introduco" against Emperor Friedrich II and that "Bertoldus frater Raynaldi dicti ducis Spoleti" forced its surrender, in 1226[1034]. The Ryccardus de Sancti Germano Chronica records that "Raynaldus dux Spoleti cum imperiali gente" besieged "dominos Popliti in Capitinnano" and afterwards entered "Marchiam" while "Bertoldus frater eius" remained "circa Nursie provinciam" , in 1226[1035]. The Ryccardus de Sancti Germano Chronica records that Pope Gregory IX excommunicated "Raynaldum…ducem Spoleti et Bertoldum fratrem eius" in 1230 (4 Apr inserted in the margin of the edition consulted)[1036]. The Ryccardus de Sancti Germano Chronica records that "Bertoldus frater ipsius ducis" held out against imperial forces "in Introduco" after "Rayndaldus dictus dux Spoleti" was captured on the emperor´s orders "aput Fogiam" in May 1231[1037]. The Ryccardus de Sancti Germano Chronica records that "Bertoldus" surrendered "Introducum" in Jul 1233 and that he and his brother went into exile[1038].

Two brothers, the 1284 charter cited below names them as “cognati et nepotes” of the brothers Reinhold and Berthold named above.

1. REINHOLD [II] von Urslingen (-after 1284). Gerbert’s Historia nigræ Silvæ records a charter dated 1284 which names “Henricus de Hacke et Reinolt eius frater domini in Urselingen, eorum...cognati et nepotes domini Bertoldi et domini Reinoldi filii duces de Spoleto”[1039].

2. HEINRICH “de Hacke” (-after 1284). Gerbert’s Historia nigræ Silvæ records a charter dated 1284 which names “Henricus de Hacke et Reinolt eius frater domini in Urselingen, eorum...cognati et nepotes domini Bertoldi et domini Reinoldi filii duces de Spoleto”[1040].

Two brothers:

1. WERNER von Urslingen (-1354). He fought in Italy as mercenary for various Italian princes during the 1340s and early 1350s. The Cronicon Estense records the alliance agreed 6 Dec 1342 between “Dux Guarnerius capitaneus magnæ societaris Theutonicorum” and ”dominis de Liga...domino Marchione, domino Mastino”[1041]. The Cronica di Pisa records the exploits of “lo Duca Guarnieri” in Florence in Aug 1343[1042]. The Cronica Sanese records the activities of “il Duca Guarnieri” in the kingdom of Naples in 1347[1043]. The Alberti Argentensis Chronicon records “Wernhero de Urselingen, Suevo” helping “Joanna relicta Andreæ...uxor Ludovici ducis Thoraciæ” [Jeanne I Queen of Sicily] expel Hungarians from Naples, maybe dated to 1347[1044]. The Alberti Argentensis Chronicon records the death in Sep 1354 of “Joannes archiepiscopus Mediolanensis”, noting that he had given “pecuniam dudum Wernhero de Urselingen capitaneo Societatis” who returned to his country and after a short time was buried there (“quod in patriam est reversus, et breviter in Suevia sepultus”)[1045]. m ---. The name of Werner’s wife is not known. Werner & his wife had one child:

a) son . The Cronicon Estense records that “dux Guernerius” sent “ducem Raynaldum fratrem ducis Guernerii, et filium ducis” to Ferrara 10 Apr 1343[1046].

The chronology suggests that Reinhold was the son of Konrad [II], but the primary source which confirms his parentage has not been identified. m BEATRIX, daughter of ---. A charter dated 19 Jun 1363 records an arbitral sentence in a dispute between “Hertzogen Friderichen von Teeck” and “Beatrix Hertzog Reinoltz von Urslingen...wirtin und Conrad ihr beyder sohn” concerning St Gallen’s interest in “der Statt Oberendorff”[1049]. Reinhold [III] & his wife had two children:

A charter dated 19 Jun 1363 records an arbitral sentence in a dispute between “Hertzogen Friderichen von Teeck” and “Beatrix Hertzog Reinoltz von Urslingen...wirtin und Conrad ihr beyder sohn” concerning St Gallen’s interest in “der Statt Oberendorff”[1050]. Bronner records that the dispute concerning Oberendorf, referred to in the 19 Jun 1363 charter quoted above, was settled in 1371 when Konrad Herzog von Urslingen sold certain properties to Friedrich Herzog von Teck[1051]. m ---. The primary source which confirms the name of Konrad’s son has not been identified. Konrad [III] & his wife had two children:

The relationship between the following person and the Veringen family has not been ascertained. The phrase “comitissam de Veringen”, without specifying her name, suggests that no further precision was needed as she was the only person who bore that title in 1309. If that is correct, the bride could have been the widow of Heinrich Graf von Veringen (died [29 Nov 1307/17 Nov 1310]), although not necessarily his known wife Ida who is not recorded after 1284 and could have predeceased her husband. Alternatively, “comitissam de Veringen” could (assuming that Heinrich died a widower) indicate Heinrich’s only marriageable daughter: the charter dated 25 Nov 1311 quoted above, which names “Graue Wolfrat und Graue Hainrich kirchherre ze Veringen, Graue Hainriches suene von Veringen und ihre Schwester Katherine”[1217], suggests that Katharina was Heinrich’s only living daughter although the date is inconsistent with her earlier marriage in 1309.

b) THEOTBALD (-killed in battle Lechfeld 10 Aug 955). The Vita b. Hucbaldi names (in order) "sanctum Udalricum, Diepoldum comitem, Luiggardim ducissam" as children of "Hucbaldus" and "Theobergam"[1422]. The Vita S. Oudalrici names "Dietpaldo frater eius [=Oudalrici]"[1423]. Graf. m ---. The name of Theotbald's wife is not known. Graf Theotbald & his wife had one child:

i) RICHWIN [I] (-973). The Vita b. Hucbaldi names "Riwinum" as son of "Diepoldum"[1424]. The Vita S. Oudalrici names "Riwinum filium Dietpaldo", in a later passage referring to Dillingen castle and naming his wife "Hiltegart"[1425]. Herimannus records the sudden death "flebotomatus" of "Richwino comite fratris suis [=Oudalrici episcope] Theodbaldi filius"[1426]. m HILDEGARD, daughter of --- (-after 973). The primary source which confirms her marriage has not yet been identified. Graf Richwin [I] & his wife had [two] children:

(a) [HUPOLD . The Vita b. Hucbaldi names the descendants of "Riwinum, qui genuit Hucbaldum, qui Albertum, qui Hucbaldum, qui Hartmannum fundatorem Nernisheim, qui Hartmannum, qui Albertum, qui Albertum, qui Hartmannum, qui Albertum, qui Hartmannum, qui Albertum, qui Hartmannum, qui Albertum, Ludovicum et Hartmannum Augustensis ecclesiæ episcopum"[1427]. This is inconsistent with the Vita S. Oudalrici (see below).]

(b) [RICHWIN [II] (-1007 or after). Duria-Graf. m ---. The name of Richwin's wife is not known. Graf Richwin [II] & his wife had [one possible child]:

c) MANEGOLD [I] . The necrology of Augsburg St Ulrich records the death "XVII Kal Aug" of "Huopaldus com de Kyburg et Dillingen, pater s Uodalrici, Dietpaldus et Manegoldus comites fratres eiusdem et Luitgardis ducissa Suevie soror eorundem"[1428]. m ---. The name of Manegold's wife is not known. Graf Manegold [I] & his wife had one child:

i) [HUPOLD [II] (-after 974). The sources are contradictory regarding the parentage of Hupold [II]. The Vita S. Oudalrici names "Hupoldus filius fratris sui [=Oudalrici] Manigoldi"[1429]. However, according to the Vita b. Hucbaldi, Hupold [II] was the son of Richwin [I] ("Riwinum, qui genuit Hucbaldum…")[1430]. There appears to be no way of deciding which version may be correct. Hupoold [II] is therefore shown in this document in square brackets. Graf. m ---. The name of Hupold's wife is not known. Graf Hupold [II] & his wife had [one possible child]:

(a) [MANEGOLD [II] (-1003 or after). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. Duria-Graf. According to the Vita b. Hucbaldi, the father of Hupold [III] was Albert, son of Hupold [II] ("Riwinum, qui genuit Hucbaldum, qui Albertum, qui Hucbaldum")[1431]. However, this is only one version, and no further reference to Albert has been found. Until further sources come to light, Manegold [II] is shown in this document as the possible son of Hupold [II]. m ---. The name of Manegold's wife is not known. Graf Manegold [II] & his wife had [three children]:

(1) [HUPOLD [III] (-5 Mar 1075). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. Graf.]

- see below.

(2) [MANGOLD [III] (-[1027/28]). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. Graf von Dillingen in Werd.]

(3) [daughter . The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not yet been identified. m [ADALBERT] . [1020/70].

d) daughter . The primary source which confirms her parentage has not yet been identified. Nun at Buchau 926.

e) LIUTGARD . The Vita b. Hucbaldi names (in order) "sanctum Udalricum, Diepoldum comitem, Luiggardim ducissam" as children of "Hucbaldus" and "Theobergam"[1432]. Herimannus names "Liudgardæ sororis suis [=Oudalrici episcope]"[1433]. The necrology of Augsburg St Ulrich records the death "XVII Kal Aug" of "Huopaldus com de Kyburg et Dillingen, pater s Uodalrici, Dietpaldus et Manegoldus comites fratres eiusdem et Luitgardis ducissa Suevie soror eorundem"[1434]. m PEIER, son of --- (-after 973). Peier & his wife had three children:

i) ADALBERO (-Dillingen [May] 973). Herimannus names "Adalberonis clerico, sororis suæ [=Oudalrici episcopi] Liudgardæ ex Peiere comito filio"[1435]. The Vita S. Oudalrici names "Adalbero nepotism suis [=Oudalrici] abpatium Utenbura"[1436]. Abbot of Ottobeuren. Administrator of the Bishopric of Augsburg 972. The Annales Sangallenses record the deaths in 973 of "Udalricus episcopus et nepos eius Adalbero"[1437].

ii) REGINBALD (-killed in battle Lechfeld 10 Aug 955). The Vita S. Oudalrici names "Reginbaldum filium sororis suam [=Oudalrici]"[1438]. Graf.

iii) MANEGOLD . The Vita S. Oudalrici names "Manegoldo et Hupaldo nepotibus sancti episcope Oudalrici"[1439]. in Sulmetingen 973. m ---. The name of Manegold's wife is not known. Manegold & his wife had [one child]:

(a) [BERTHA (-22 Dec 1032). Herimannus names "Reginboldus comes…aviæ meæ [=Herimannus] Berthæ patruus"[1440]. The proof that Manegold was the father of Bertha has not yet been found. However, he is the only known lay brother of Reginbald and the transmission of his name to her son suggests that this paternity may be correct. Herimannus records the death "1033 XI Kal Jan" of "Bertha avia mea 23 viduitatis anno"[1441]. m WOLFRAD [I] Graf von Veringen, son of --- (-4 Mar 1010).]

HUPOLD [III] von Dillingen, son of [MANEGOLD [II] Graf & his wife ---] (-5 Mar 1075). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. Graf von Dillingen. The Annales Neresheimenses record the death in 1074 of "Hupoldus comes Dillingæ et Kyburgæ pater Hartmanni"[1442]. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "III Non Mar" of "Hupoldus comes pater Hartmanni fundatoris"[1443].

m ADELHEID von Gerhausen, daughter of --- (-3 Jan or 23 Jun after 1075). The necrology of Neresheim records the death "III Non Jan" of "Adelheit com mater Hartmanni comitis de Dilingen"[1444], the absence of any reference to her husband implying that he predeceased her. It is more probable that this entry refers to the mother of Hartmann [I] rather than his wife. Most entries in the necrology include a qualification ("senior/iunior/fundator noster" etc) when referring to the different individuals named Hartmann. In the case of Hartmann [II] there are no exceptions to this: he is always described as "iunior" to distinguish him from his father. In all other cases where there is a reference to a Graf Hartmann without any qualification, it is clear that Hartmann [I] is intended. To further complicate the picture, the same necrology records the death "IX Kal Jul" of "Adelheit com mater comitis"[1445]. The same comments apply to this entry which is also probably linked to Adelheid wife of Hupold. It is assumed that one entry refers to her death and another to the anniversary of a donation which she made.

Graf Hupold [III] & his wife had two children:

1. HARTMANN [I] von Dillingen (-16 Apr 1120, bur Neresheim). The Vita b. Hucbaldi names "Hartmannum fundatorem Nernisheim" as son of Hupold [III][1446]. Graf von Dillingen. "Ropertus et filii fratris mei Hezelonis de Honsteti, Erlewinus et Eberhardi" donated property "in pago Turgouva in comitatu Hartmanni comitis in loco Matzinga" to Schaffhausen St Salvator by charter dated 14 Mar 1094[1447]. The Annales Neresheimenses record the foundation of Kloster Neresheim in 1095[1448]. Albert of Aix records that "Heinricus de Ascha, Hartmannus comes, unus de majoribus Alemanniæ" constructed a siege machine called "vulpem" (fox) which collapsed when they pushed it into action against the walls at the siege of Nikaia, dated to mid-1097 from the context[1449]. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "XVI Kal Mai" of "Hartmannus comes senior de Dilingen fundator huius loci"[1450]. The Annales Neresheimenses record the death in 1121 of "Hartmannus fundator noster comes Dillingæ et Kyburgæ"[1451]. m ADELHEID, daughter of Graf ADALBERT [III] & his wife --- (1053 or before-). The necrology of Neresheim records the death "XIV Kal Jul" of "Adalbertus comes de Bregantia, pater com Adelhardis fundatricis nostræ"[1452], Adelheid's husband being recorded in the same source as founder of Kloster Neresheim. Alternatively, the Casus Monasterii Petrishusensis names "Adilbertum…[et] Adilheidis" as son and daughter of Liutfried & his wife, specifying that Adelheid married "comes Hartmannus senior de Dilinga"[1453]. This parentage for Adelheid is chronologically impossible without two or three intervening generations, assuming that Liutfried was the son of Udalrich [VI] Outzo. Adelheid and her husband were buried in Kloster Neresheim according to a monumental inscription which reads "AD 1121 obiit Hartmannus fundator noster, comes de Dillingen, et uxor eius de Kyburg Adelhaid"[1454]. This suggests that Adelheid was the heiress of Kiburg which, if correct, was transmitted into the family of the Grafen von Dillingen through her marriage. Graf Hartmann [I] & his wife had [eight] children:

a) HARTMANN [II] (-21 Nov 1134). The Casus Monasterii Petrishusensis names "Hartmannum iuniorem et Adilbertum…et Oudalricum" as sons of "comes Hartmannus senior de Dilinga" & his wife[1455]. The Annales Neresheimenses record the death in 1134 of "Hartmannus iunior comes Dillingæ et Kyburgæ"[1456]. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "XI Kal Dec" of "Hartmannus junior comes de Dilingen"[1457].

b) ADALBERT [I] (-12 Sep 1151). The Casus Monasterii Petrishusensis names "Hartmannum iuniorem et Adilbertum…et Oudalricum" as sons of "comes Hartmannus senior de Dilinga" & his wife[1458]. Graf von Kiburg 1096. Graf von Dillingen 1134.

- see below.

c) ULRICH (-St Märgen 27 Aug 1127). The Casus Monasterii Petrishusensis names "Hartmannum iuniorem et Adilbertum…et Oudalricum" as sons of "comes Hartmannus senior de Dilinga" & his wife, specifying that Udalrich was Bishop of Konstanz[1459]. He founded Kloster St Ulrich and Afra at Kreuzlingen. Bishop of Konstanz 1111. The Annales Neresheimenses record the death in 1127 of "Ulricus filius Hartmanni comitis episcopus Constantiensis"[1460]. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "VI Kal Sep" of "Udalricus ep Constantiensis filius Hartmanni comitis de Dilingen"[1461]. The necrology of St Peter im Schwarzwald records the death "VI Kal Sep" of "Udalricus eps Constantiensis 1127"[1462].

d) ADELHEID (-9 Jan ----). The necrology of Neresheim records the death "V Id Jan" of "Adelheit com filia Hartmanni comitis"[1463], presumably an older sister of the other daughter named Adelheid who died young.

e) MATHILDE (-29 Nov ----). The Casus Monasterii Petrishusensis records that "comes Hartmannus senior de Dilinga" & his wife had three daughters, of whom one "genuit Uodalricum comitem de Gamirtingen et Adilbertum de Achalmin"[1464]. Abbess of Neresheim. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "III Kal Dec" of "Mahthild abb n c filia Hartmanni comitis de Dilingen"[1465].

f) ADELHEID (-1 Dec [1141]). Ortlieb's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names "Adelheit comitissa uxor Oudalrici comitis de Gamertingin, filia Hartmanni comitis de Dilingin" among the list of nuns at Zwiefalten[1466]. She founded the Benedictine abbey of Zwiefalten after her husband died. She is recorded as living in the 22 Jan 1139 charter of her son Ulrich [I], quoted below. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "Kal Dec 1131" [year incorrect] of "Adelheit com filia Hartmanni comitis senioris de Dilingen, Udalrici comitis de Gamertingen vidua cv in Zwifalten"[1467]. m ULRICH [I] Graf von Gammertingen, son of ARNOLD & his wife --- (-18 Sep [1110]).

g) HEDWIG (-11 Apr ----). Ortlieb's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names "germanæ sorores eorum [Oudalrici Constantiensis episcopi cum germano suo comite Hartmanno] Adelheit quondam comitissa et Hadewic" among the list of nuns at Zwiefalten[1468]. Nun at Zwiefalten. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "III Id Apr" of "Hadewic m^a in Zwifalten, filia Hartmanni senioris comitis"[1469].

h) [BERTHA (-22 Mar ----). The necrology of Neresheim records the death "XI Kal Apr" of "Berhta filia comitis"[1470], without giving the name of her father. It is likely that she was the daughter of Graf Hartmann [I] who, as founder of the monastery, is probably the only member of this family for whom a qualification may have been considered unnecessary by the compiler of the necrology.]

2. HEDWIG (-23 Feb ----). The necrology of Neresheim records the death "VII Kal Mar" of "Hadewic soror comitis Hartmanni senioris"[1471].

ADALBERT [I] von Dillingen, son of HARTMANN [I] Graf von Dillingen & his wife Adelheid von Winterthur (-12 Sep 1151). The Casus Monasterii Petrishusensis names "Hartmannum iuniorem et Adilbertum…et Oudalricum" as sons of "comes Hartmannus senior de Dilinga" & his wife[1472]. Graf von Kiburg 1096. "Adelbertus comes de Choiburk…" witnessed a charter dated 12 Jun 1112 under which "Irmingart et Hadewich sororis eius" donated property "in comitatu Hartmanni in loco…Husin" to Schaffhausen St Salvator[1473]. Graf von Dillingen 1134. The Annales Neresheimenses record the death in 1151 of "Adalbertus comes de Dillinga sive de Kugiburc advocatus noster"[1474]. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "II Id Sep" of "Adalbertus comes filius Hartmanni comitis de Dilingen"[1475].

m as her second husband, MATHILDE [von Mörsberg, widow of MEGINHARD Graf von Sponheim, daughter of ADALBERT Graf von Mörsberg & his wife Mathilde de Mousson] (-12 Mar [1180]). The primary source which confirms her parentage and two marriages has not yet been identified. She became a nun at Neresheim. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "IV Id Mar" of "Mechtildis com in Dilingen sor n c"[1476].

Graf Adalbert [I] & his wife had three children:

1. ADALBERT [II] (-18 Jan 1170). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. The History of Salem Monastery lists those present at a court of "duce Friderico", including "Alberto et Hartmanno comitibus de Kuiburc", undated but dateable to [1152][1477]. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "XV Kal Feb" of "Adalbertus comes iunior de Dilingen"[1478]. Graf von Dillingen. "…Hartmannus comes de Kugeburc et frater eius Adelbertus comes de Dilingen…" witnessed the charter dated 27 Nov 1155 under which Emperor Friedrich I confirmed possessions of the church of Konstanz[1479]. The Annales Neresheimenses record the death in 1170 of "Albertus comes de Dillingen"[1480].

2. HARTMANN [III] (-31 Aug 1180). Graf von Dillingen, Graf von Kiburg. The History of Salem Monastery lists those present at a court of "duce Friderico", including "Alberto et Hartmanno comitibus de Kuiburc", undated but dateable to [1152][1481]. "…Hartmannus comes de Kugeburc et frater eius Adelbertus comes de Dilingen…" witnessed the charter dated 27 Nov 1155 under which Emperor Friedrich I confirmed possessions of the church of Konstanz[1482]. He founded Kloster Diessenhofen. He became a monk at Kloster Neresheim. The Annales Neresheimenses record the death in 1180 of "Harthmannus comes de Dilingen sive de Kugiburc advocatus noster"[1483].

- GRAFEN von KIBURG.

c) [daughter . An indication of a relationship between the Dillingen/Kiburg and Regensberg families is provided by the charter dated [24 Sep/31 Dec] 1253 under which “H[artmannus] comes senior de Kiburc” [identified as Hartmann [III] Graf von Kiburg] granted property “in Tunreton et in Altorf” to “nepotem meum L. beate memorie seniorem de Regensperc et filios suos” [identified as Lutold [V] von Regensberg][1489]. From a chronological point of view, it appears impossible for Lutold [V] to have been the nephew of Hartmann [III]. It is likely therefore that the connection was through an earlier generation and that “nepotem” in this document should be interpreted in an extended sense. Nabholz indicates that “G. v. Wyss” (no precise citation reference) suggested that the wife of Lutold [IV] was “eine Vatersschwester Hartmanns des Aeltern”[1490]. This appears to be only one of many possible family relationships so the suggestion cannot be taken as certain. m LUTOLD [IV] von Regensberg, son of --- (-[Palestine] before 6 May 1219).]

d) [--- . Europäische Stammtafeln shows a possible daughter of Graf Hartmann [III] as the wife of Hermann [II] Graf von Frohburg[1491]. It is likely that this speculation aims to explain the consanguinity between the Kirburg and Frohburg families which is indicated by the following document. Pope Innocent IV granted dispensation to “nobili viro Artimanno nato...L. comitis de Froburc” to marry “Annam filiam nobilis viri --- comitis de Rapreswiler”, who had been divorced from “H. iunior comes de Kiburch tertia te linea consanguinitatis” because he had previously contracted to marry “matertera ipsius A[nne] sponsalia”, dated 28 Jan 1251[1492]. m HERMANN [II] Graf von Frohburg, son of --- (-before 1213).]

3. ULRICH (-6 Nov 1186 or after). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. Canon at Basel Cathedral and Provost at Bern 1186. The necrology of Neresheim records the death "VIII Id Nov" of "Udalricus comes de Kugiberc, monachus Zwifuldæ"[1493].

ADALBERT [III] von Dillingen, son of HARTMANN [III] Graf von Dillingen & his wife Richenza von Lenzburg (-15 Feb 1214, bur Neresheim).

C. HERREN von STAUFEN

The Swabian "Staufen" family were representative of a new type of nobility which emerged in Germany in the second half of the 11th century. They were unconnected either with the original German tribes, such as the Saxons or Bavarians, or with the artificial political creation of Lotharingia. The family owed its rise to power to strategically placed castles, in particular the castle of Stauf on the Staufenberg near Göppingen, from which the family took its name. The Staufer broadened their influence by building further castles and eventually centred their activities around the town of Waiblingen in Swabia, from which their Italian supporters eventually adopting the name "Ghibellines".

Two siblings, parents unknown:

1. FRIEDRICH (-after Jul 1027). The Tabula consanguinitatis Friderici I regis et Adelæ reginæ (which provided the basis for their divorce) records "Berta" and "Fridericus" as brother and sister, and their descendants[1535]. Graf 987. Graf im Sundergau 1003. m ---. The name of Friedrich's wife is not known. Graf Friedrich & his wife had one child:

2. BERTHA. The Tabula consanguinitatis Friderici I regis et Adelæ reginæ (which provided the basis for their divorce) records "Berta" and "Fridericus" as brother and sister, and their descendants[1537]. m LANDOLT, son of ---. Vogt der Reichenau 992. This couple were ancestors of the Zähringen family of Baden.

Pfalzgraf von Schwaben 1053. He founded the convent of Lorch.

m ([1047]) HILDEGARD, daughter of --- (-[1094/23 Jul 1095]). "Hildegardis…cum filiis meis, Ottone…Argentinenis ecclesie episcopo Suevorumque duce Friderico, Lodewico, Walthario, Cunrado et filia mea Adalheida" made a donation to the monastery of St Fides at Schlettstadt in Alsace dated 1094, presumably just before she died[1539]. She may have been the heiress of the land on which her son later built the castle of Stauf. Jackman suggests[1540] that she was Hildegard, daughter of Graf Otto & his wife ---, emphasising that it could provide an explanation based on heredity for the appointment of Hildegard's son, Friedrich von Büren, as Duke of Swabia in 1079. This assumes the need for such a hereditary basis, whereas it appears that the duchy of Swabia was awarded on the basis of the political or economic power of the nominee. In addition, if heredity had been the basis for the nomination, there would clearly have been other candidates with a senior claim. Decker-Hauff suggested[1541] that Hildegard was the daughter of Louis de Mousson (who would have been Hildegard's sister if Jackman's theory is correct). Jackman says that this should be rejected on chronological grounds as Sophie de Lorraine, the wife of Louis de Mousson, must have been born in [1020] and could not therefore have been the grandmother of Friedrich I Duke of Swabia, born in [1050]. The wife of Friedrich von Büren is not named in Europäische Stammtafeln[1542].

It is reasonable to suppose that she was the daughter of Graf Heinrich [II], named after her paternal grandmother.

e) [--- von Fürstenberg . The primary source which confirms the name of Walter’s wife has not been identified.

This assumes that “swager” can be interpreted in its strict sense of brother-in-law, which is not necessarily the case. In particular, it is not impossible that the term refers to the indirect relationship between Walter Herr von Geroldseck and his cousin Walter von Geroldseck Herr von Sultz, who was the son of Anna von Fürstenberg (a first cousin of Gottfried Graf von Fürstenberg, see above). m WALTER Herr von Geroldseck “von Tübingen”, son of HERMANN von Geroldseck & his wife Uta von Tübingen (-after 8 Oct 1338).]

The parentage of the following person has not been ascertained. The editor of the Fürstenburg Urkundenbuch, recording an epitaph at Altdorf bei Engen which includes the shields of Fürstenberg, Gundelfingen, Montfort and Toggenburg, suggests that Katharina would only have acquired the right to bear the Montfort shield through Anna von Montfort, wife of Heinrich [III] Graf von Fürstenberg, whom he says must therefore have been her father[1655]. However, this suggestion ignores the chronological problems. Heinrich [III]’s known children married between 1362 and 1372. However, the donors in the 8 Jul 1381 charter quoted below must have been many years earlier: for example, Hans’s wife Anna von Montfort was probably the daughter of Rudolf [IV] Graf von Montfort in Feldkirch by his first wife who is named in 1332. In addition, the donor Heinrich von Hewen may have been the same person as the second husband of Clementia von Toggenburg, their marriage being dated to [1362/67]. It appears therefore that Katharina must have belonged to an earlier generation of the Fürstenberg family.

1. KATHARINA von Fürstenberg (-[after 8 Jul 1381]). “Burkart herre von Hewen tunprobst ze Chostentz, Hainrich und Hans herren von Hewen, alle drig gebruder” donated property to Engen St. Martin, for the souls of “unsers...vatter herr Peters saeligen herren von Hewen und unser...muter frow Katherinen geborn von Fúrstenberg”, Hans von Hewen donating separately for “miner husfrowen saelgen...fro Annen von Montfort”, by charter dated 8 Jul 1381[1656]. Katharina is not called “selig[e]” in this document, in contrast with her husband, which suggests that she may have still been alive at the time. m PETER Herr von Hewen, son of --- (-29 Sep 1371).

D. GRAFEN von KIRCHBERG

The primary sources which confirm the parentage and marriages of members of this family have not yet been identified, unless otherwise stated below.

2. BERTHOLD . Graf von Kirchberg. The Codex Hirsaugiensis records that “Bertholdus comes de Chirchberg” donated property “in Gilesten” to Hirsau, undated[1699].

Two brothers:

1. HARTMANN [I] (-[2 Jan 1126/12 Jul 1127]). Graf von Kirchberg.

"Otto de Chirichberk" donated property to the monastery in the presence of "domna Mahtilda sorore predicti Werinharii", by charter dated 1116, witnessed by "Hartmannus comes et filius eius Hartmannus de Chirichberk…"[1703]. “Hartmannus comes et frater eius Eberhardus eque comes de Kirichberch” witnessed the charter dated 1127 for Kloster St. Ulrich und Afra in Augsburg[1704]. ["…Ebirhardus et Hartmannus comites de Kilhperc…" signed the charter dated [1134/37] which records the foundation of Kloster Salem[1705]. The order of the witness’s names suggests that this charter may not refer to Graf Hartmann [II], but to his [younger] brother Eberhard [I] and a junior count named Hartmann.]

b) EBERHARD [I] (-after 8 Mar 1166). "Rudolfus comes Curiensis" and “Eberhardo comite de Kirchberg” exchanged property “in cella Oxenhusen in comitatu Diethboldi comitis” by charter dated 12 Jul 1127[1706]. “Hartmannus comes et frater eius Eberhardus eque comes de Kirichberch” witnessed the charter dated 1127 for Kloster St. Ulrich und Afra in Augsburg[1707].

[Emperor Heinrich V confirmed the donation of "prædium Slocse" made to the monastery of St Blasius by “dux Rudolfus de Rinvelden et comes Otto et filius eius Fridericus comes...” by charter dated 8 Jan 1125[1711]. It is not certain that this document relates to Otto Graf von Kirchberg, although he appears to be the only contemporary Swabian count of that name to whom it can refer. The document clearly relates to past donations, considering that Rudolf von Rheinfelden died in 1080. It is not therefore certain that Otto and his son were alive at the date of the charter. Lothar King of Germany confirmed donations to the monastery of St Blasius, at the request of "Hartmannus comes de Geroshusin, Manegoldus comes et filius eius Wolueradus de Isininum et de Alshusin, Hartmannus comes et frater eius Otto de Chilhperc...", by charter dated 2 Jan 1126[1712]. m ---.

Emperor Heinrich V confirmed the donation of "prædium Slocse" made to the monastery of St Blasius by “dux Rudolfus de Rinvelden et comes Otto et filius eius Fridericus comes...” by charter dated 8 Jan 1125[1713]. It is not certain that this document relates to Otto Graf von Kirchberg, although he appears to be the only contemporary Swabian count of that name to whom it can refer. No other reference has yet been found to Otto having a son named Friedrich. The document clearly relates to past donations, considering that Rudolf von Rheinfelden died in 1080. It is not therefore certain that Graf Otto´s son was still alive at the date of the charter.]

EBERHARD [I] von Kirchberg, son of HARTMANN [I] Graf von Kirchberg & his wife --- (-after 8 Mar 1166). "Rudolfus comes Curiensis" and “Eberhardo comite de Kirchberg” exchanged property “in cella Oxenhusen in comitatu Diethboldi comitis” by charter dated 12 Jul 1127[1714]. “Hartmannus comes et frater eius Eberhardus eque comes de Kirichberch” witnessed the charter dated 1127 for Kloster St. Ulrich und Afra in Augsburg[1715].

Pope Eugene III granted protection to Kloster Wiblingen, naming "Eberhardus comes et senior heres eius" as Vogt, by charter dated 6 Feb 1148[1717]. The History of Salem Monastery lists those present at a court of "duce Friderico", including "Ebirhardo et Hartmanno comitibus de Kilhperc", undated but dateable to [1152][1718]. “Eberhardus comes de Kirchberg et filii duo eius comes Otto, comes Hartmannus” witnessed the charter dated 1160 for the church in Roggenburg[1719]. “Comes Everhardus de Kirberch et filii sui” witnessed the charter dated 8 Mar 1166 under which Emperor Friedrich I exchanged property with the archbishop of Magdeburg[1720].

Graf von Kirchberg. “Comes Otto de Kirchberg” witnessed the charter dated 10 Jul 1168 issued by Emperor Friedrich I for the bishop of Würzburg[1722]. "…Comes Hartmannus de Kilchberg et frater suus comes Otto…" witnessed a charter of Emperor Friedrich I dated 1179[1723]. “Otto, Hartmannus et Rudolfus comites de Chilichberg” witnessed the charter of Friedrich V Duke of Swabia dated 1185[1724]. Emperor Friedrich I confirmed property to Kloster St. Salvator at Schaffhausen which had been misappropriated by “Otto pìe memorie comes de Chilchperg” by charter dated 26 Apr 1189[1725].

The name of Hartmann’s wife is not known. Hartmann [III] & his wife had one child:

a) HARTMANN [IV] (-after 1188). “Hartmannus puer filius comitis de Chirichperch” witnessed the charter dated 1187 under which Friedrich V Duke of Swabia and the abbot of Augsburg St Ulrich & Afra made arrangements relating to property exchanged with “comiti Hartmanno de Chirichperch”[1733]. "...Hartmannus comes de Hirberc et filius eius Harthmannus..." witnessed the charter dated 1188 under which "Fridericus dux Suevorum" confirmed property of the church of Steingaden[1734].

3. [RUDOLF (-after [1191]). Graf von Kirchberg. “Otto, Hartmannus et Rudolfus comites de Chilichberg” witnessed the charter of Friedrich V Duke of Swabia dated 1185[1735]. It is prossible that the third name person was a younger brother of the other two. “Comites de Kirperch H., R.” witnessed the charter dated [1191] issued by Konrad Duke of Swabia for Kloster Rothenburg[1736].]

Two brothers, parents not identified.

1. EBERHARD [II] (-[27 Aug] ----). Graf von Kirchberg. The necrology of Rothen records "VI Kal Sep Eberhardus et Conradus fratres comites de Kirchberg"[1737], although it is not known whether this refers to their death on the same day or to a joint donation.

2. KONRAD (-[27 Aug] ----). Graf von Kirchberg. The necrology of Rothen records "VI Kal Sep Eberhardus et Conradus fratres comites de Kirchberg"[1738], although it is not known whether this refers to their death on the same day or to a joint donation.

The parentage of the following individuals has not been ascertained.

1. OTTO [III] (-after 1 Jun 1194). Graf von Kirchberg. Pope Celestine III granted protection to Kloster Wiblingen, built by "bone memorie...Hartmanno comite et Ottone fratre eius" and noting that “Otto comes” now administered “advocatiam...ipsius cenobii”, by charter dated 1 Jun 1194[1739].

2. OTTO [IV] (-after 17 Jul 1220). From a chronological perspective, it would not be impossible for Otto [IV] to be the same person as Otto [III]. Graf von Kirchberg. Friedrich II King of Germany issued a charter dated 11 Apr 1215 for Kloster Kaiserheim “mediantibus Ottone comite de Kirberc, Bertoldo comite de Lechesgemunde...”[1740]. “Otto comes de Kerchberg” witnessed the charter dated 17 Jul 1220 issued by Emperor Friedrich II for Nordhausen church[1741].

3. HARTMANN [V] . Graf von Kirchberg. “Hartmannus comes de Chirchperch” witnessed the charter dated 14 Mar 1212 issued by Emperor Otto IV for Chieri[1742]. The chronology suggests that this person was not Graf Hermann [III], but could have been the same person as Hermann [IV] who is named above.

4. HARTMANN [VI] (-before 1308). Graf von Kirchberg. m (after 1281) as her second husband, SOPHIA von Wangen, widow of KONRAD [V] Graf von Moosburg, daughter of BERAL von Wangen & his wife --- (-6 or 12 Sep after 1325). “Sophya comitissa de Mospurch” donated “curiam...in Haeder” to Kloster Seligenthal, for the souls of “suæ defunctorum maritorum...comitum Chuonradi de Mospurch et Hartmanni de Churchperch”, by charter dated 12 Jun 1308[1743]. The Liber Anniversariorum of Moosburg records the death "VI Id Sep" of "Sophya com de Mospurge" and her donation of property "in Pachorn"[1744]. The necrology of Seligenthal records the death "II Id Sep" of "domina Sophia com^ade Mospurch"[1745]. Considering her second marriage, it is surprising that Sophie should be referred to by the title from her first husband in both these entries although this presumably shows that her first husband’s rank was considered superior to that of her second husband.

5. WILHELM (-before 10 Aug 1366). Graf von Kirchberg. “Graf Wilhalm von Kirchberg und...Agnes Hörtzogin von Teckh sin Eheliche Fraw” sold “die Hüttisheimer Vogtei” to Kloster Wiblingen by charter dated 27 Nov 1346[1746]. The necrology of Weibling names "Graf Wilhelm ritter et uxor eius Agnes herzogin de Theck" in an undated list presumably of benefactors[1747]. m (before 27 Nov 1346) AGNES von Teck, daughter of SIMON I Herzog von Teck [Baden] & his wife Agnes von Helfenstein (-26 Sep 1384). “Graf Wilhalm von Kirchberg und...Agnes Hörtzogin von Teckh sin Eheliche Fraw” sold “die Hüttisheimer Vogtei” to Kloster Wiblingen by charter dated 27 Nov 1346[1748]. Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by the Registrum of Goswin von Marienberg which records that “dominus advocatus Ulricus filius domini Ulrici” [Ulrich Vogt von Matsch the younger] married [her daughter] “dux de Tekke Ch(unradus)...qui tunc temporis vicedominus Tyrolis fuit...sororis filiam”[1749]. Emperor Karl IV confirmed that “der Edel Ulrich Vogt von Maetsch der Junger” had pawned two thirds of the Grafschaft Kirchberg to “vrowen Agnesen Grefinne zu Kirchberk und Herczoginne zu Dekke, weiln dez Edeln Wilhalmes, Grauen zu Kirchberk, eliche wirtinne seiner Swiger” by charter dated 12 May 1366[1750]. The necrology of Weibling names "Graf Wilhelm ritter et uxor eius Agnes herzogin de Theck" in an undated list presumably of benefactors[1751]. Wilhelm & his wife had two children:

a) AGNES von Kirchberg (-1401). m ULRICH [IV] Vogt von Mätsch, son of ULRICH [III] Vogt von Mätsch & his wife Adelheid von Werdenberg (-1402).

b) LUITGARD von Kirchberg . Nun in Kloster Seflingen.

E. GRAFEN im LINZGAU, GRAFEN von ALTDORF (WELF)

Linzgau was situated north of Lake Constance, and east of Hegau, in southern Württemberg.

The Genealogia Welforum[1752], the first genealogy of the Welf family, was compiled in the mid-1120s in upper Germany and a decade later in Lüneburg. A document comprising ten short paragraphs, it is uncertain whether the earlier parts of the family are accurately represented: in particular there is an apparent conflation of one generation (see below). This was followed in [1170] by the Historia Welforum, written by an anonymous Swabian cleric in the entourage of Duke Welf [VI]. This repeats the often stated Trojan origin of the Franks, with the migrants settling on the banks of the Rhine, and more specifically the descent of the Welf family from "filiam…senatoris Romani…Katilina"[1753]. The name Welf was not applied to the whole dynasty until the 12th century, this unusual first name being an abbreviation of "Welfhard" or "Bernwelf" and signifying puppy[1754]. Migrating into Swabia from the area of Metz, the family's territories were at first centred around the Argen and Schussen, districts north-east of Lake Constance. They expanded northwards along the Lech river, acquiring a second power-base in the Ammer and Augst districts on the border with Bavaria[1755]. The reduction in the central authority of the dukes of Swabia within their duchy enabled the Welf family to increase its own power from the end-11th century, from which time they exercised the authority of dukes in their extensive territories without the ducal title.

WELF [I], son of ROTHARD Graf & his wife --- (-[824/25]). Settipani names Welf [I] as son of Rothard[1756] but does not cite the primary source on which this is based. The Annalista Saxo names "de principibus Bawarorum qui fuit binomius, name et Eticho et Welfus dicebatur" who was father of Empress Judith[1757]. From the area of Metz, he moved to Bavaria. Graf in Swabia.

m HEILWIG, daughter of --- (-after 17 Mar 833). Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris names "filiam Hwelfi ducis sui, qui erat de nobilissima progenie Bawariorum…Iudith…ex parte matris…Eigilwi nobilissimi generic Saxonici" as second wife of Emperor Ludwig[1758]. She was installed as Abbess of Chelles, near Paris[1759]. The Translatio S. Baltechildis records that Emperor Louis I visited Chelles “ubi...abbatissa Hegilwich genetrix Iudith imperatoris” for the transfer of St Bathilde’s body “XVI Kal Apr” 833[1760]. The date of Heilwig’s installation as abbess has not been ascertained. Presumably her appointment was due to the influence of her daughter Empress Judith. If that is correct, Heilwig became abbess after her daughter’s marriage in 819.

Welf [I] & his wife had four children:

1. RUDOLF [I] (-15 Oct 866). Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris names (in order) "Chuonradum et Ruodolfum" as brothers of Empress Judith[1761]. He was given the abbeys of Saint-Riquier and Jumièges, through the influence of his sister Empress Judith. The Chronique de Saint Riquier records that "Rodolphe…du sang imperial…oncle du glorieux roi Charles" succeeded abbé Louis as lay abbot of Saint-Riquier[1762]. The Annales Alamannicorum record "Hruodolfus frater Iudith Augustæ" among those who swore allegiance in 864[1763]. Comte de Sens. The Annales Bertiniani record the death in 866 of "Rodulfus Karoli regis avunculus"[1764]. The Adonis Continuatio records the death in 866 of "avunculus quoque eius [Carolo, Ludovici filii"] Radulfus, consiliarius primusque palatii"[1765]. Two contemporary Epitafia commemorate "nobilis…Rhuodulfus", the second recording his death "Idus octavo"[1766]. m HRUODUN, daughter of --- (-after 867). The primary source which confirms her marriage has not yet been identified.

- COMTES de SENS.

2. CONRAD "l'Ancien" (-22 Mar [862/66]). Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris names (in order) "Chuonradum et Ruodolfum" as brothers of Empress Judith[1767]. Graf von Linz- und Argengau. Dux. Nithard records that Conrad and his brother Rudolf were forcibly tonsured in [Apr 830] by their sister's stepson, Lothar, then in revolt against his father, and sent to Aquitaine "to be held by Pepin"[1768]. Comte de Paris. The Miraculis Sancti Germani record that "Chuonradus princeps" was cured of an eye problem by the saint, and that he built the church of Saint-Germain at Auxerre in thanks[1769]. An agreement between Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks and his brother Ludwig II "der Deutsche" King of the East Franks dated Jun 860 names "nobilis ac fidelibus laicis…Chuonradus, Evrardus, Adalardus, Arnustus, Warnarius, Liutfridus, Hruodolfus, Erkingarius, Gislebertus, Ratbodus, Arnulfus, Hugo, item Chuonradus, Liutharius, Berengarius, Matfridus, Boso, Sigeri, Hartmannus, Liuthardus, Richuinus, Wigricus, Hunfridus, Bernoldus, Hatto, Adalbertus, Burchardus, Christianus, Leutulfus, Hessi, Herimannus, item Hruodulfus, Sigehardus"[1770]. "Ludowicus…rex" confirmed an exchange between Grimald abbot of St Gallen and "quidam comis…Chuonratus" relating to property in Linzgau and Argengau, by charter dated 1 Apr 861[1771]. A poem by Walahfridus Strabus records the epitaph of "Chonradum comitem"[1772]. The necrology of Auxerre cathedral records the death 22 Mar of "Conradus comes"[1773]. m ADELAIS [de Tours], daughter of HUGUES Comte [de Tours] & his wife Ava ---. The Miraculis Sancti Germani name "Adheleid" as wife of "Chuonradus princeps"[1774]. A poem by Walahfridus Strabus records the epitaph of "Adelheidam"[1775]. The primary source which confirms her parentage has not yet been identified. Some secondary works[1776] assert that the second husband of Adelais was Robert "le Fort" [Capet]. If this is correct, Adelais must have been Comte Robert's second or third wife as his known children were already born by the time Adelais's husband Conrad died. The assertion appears based on the Chronicle of St Bénigne de Dijon which names "duo filii Rotberti Andegavorum comitis, frs Hugonis abbatis, senior Odo…Robertus alter"[1777]. Settipani states that the passage is a 12th century interpolation and has little historical value, although he does suggest that it is likely that the wife of Comte Robert was a close relation of Adelais without providing the basis for this statement[1778]. A family connection between Comte Robert and Conrad Comte de Paris is also suggested by the former being invested with the county of Auxerre in 865, after this county was confiscated from the latter (as recorded by Hincmar[1779]), on the assumption that there was some basis of heredity behind the transmission of counties in France at that time (which is probable, but remains unproven). Comte Conrad & his wife had [five] children:

a) WELF (-before 876). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. Graf im Linzgau 842/850. Graf im Alpgau 852/858. m ---. The name of Welf's wife is not known. Graf Welf & his wife had [two possible children]:

i) [CONRAD . The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. Graf im Linzgau.]

ii) [ETICHO (-after 911, bur Ammergau). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. Graf im Ammergau.]

- see below.

b) CONRAD (-876). His parentage is deduced from Regino who names "Ruodolfus filius Chuonradi, nepos Huggonis abbatis"[1780], the latter being recorded in the Miraculis Sancti Germani as "Hugo" one of the sons of "Chuonradus princeps", the patron of the church of Saint-Germain at Auxerre[1781]. He helped save Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks after the invasion of Ludwig II "der Deutsche" King of the East Franks. Comte d'Auxerre. He fell into disgrace in 861, and passed into the service of the sons of Emperor Lothar. He received from Emperor Louis the territories of Genève, Lausanne and Sion. Marquis de Transjurane in Dec 864 after he killed comte Hubert [Bosonide][1782].

- KINGS of BURGUNDY.

c) HUGO (-Orléans 12 May 886, bur Saint-Germain d'Auxerre). The Annales Bertiniani name "Hugoni clerico, avunculi sui [=Karoli regis] Chonradi filio" when recording that he received the counties of Tours and Angers in 866[1783]. Abbot of Saint-Germain d'Auxerre 853. The Miraculis Sancti Germani names "Hugo" as one of the sons of "Chuonradus princeps" who continued to patronise the church of Saint-Germain at Auxerre after their father's death[1784]. Imperial missus in Auxerre in 853. Abbot of Saint-Riquier until 861. Abbot of Saint-Bertin 859/62. He was a supporter of King Lothar 861/865. He was elected Archbishop of Köln in 864. The Annales Xantenses record that "quidam tirannicus Hugo…filius predicti Cuonradi" (the previous paragraph naming "Cuonradi fratris quondam Iuthit reginæ") succeeded as archbishop of Köln[1785]. Marquis de Neustrie, Comte de Tours et d'Angers 866. Comte d'Auxerre in [866], assuming that Hugues was appointed to succeed Robert "le Fort" in this as well as the latter's other counties, although the primary source which confirms this beyond doubt has not yet been identified. Abbot of Saint-Martin de Tours 866. Abbot of St Vaast, Arras [874]. Abbot of Saint-Aignan, Orléans before 876. Abbot of Saint-Julien d'Auxerre 877. Chaplain of the imperial chapel in [880]. "Hugo consobrinus eius [Conradi]" succeeded his cousin [as Abbot of Saint-Colombe de Sens] in 882, recording that he was "clericatus in Palatio"[1786]. "Karolus…imperator augustus" confirmed a donation by "Hugo…propinquus noster" of property "villam Apiarias in pago Aurelianensi" to "episcopo Adalaldo archiepiscopo simulque Rainoni episcopo, fratri eiusdem" at the request of "Odo comes" by charter dated 27 Oct 886[1787]. Regino records the death in 887 of "Hugo abba" at Orléans and his burial "apud Sanctum Germanum Autisiodoro"[1788]. The necrology of Auxerre cathedral records the death 12 May of "Hugo abbas"[1789].

d) RUDOLF . The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified.

e) [JUDITH]. The identity of Udo's wife is not known with certainty. According to Jackman[1790], she may have been the daughter of Konrad Graf im Linz- und Argengau, whom he speculates was named Judith. King Arnulf in a charter dated 19 May 891 names "Chonradi…comitis et nepotis nostri"[1791]. The speculation is that the relationship may have been through Konrad's mother who, if identified as the daughter of Graf Konrad, was the niece of King Arnulf's paternal grandmother Queen Hemma. m UDO Graf im Lahngau, son of GEBHARD Graf im Niederlahngau [Konradiner] & his wife ---. 860/879.]

3. JUDITH ([805]-Tours 19 Apr 843, bur Tours Saint-Martin). Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris names "filiam Hwelfi ducis sui, qui erat de nobilissima progenie Bawariorum…Iudith…ex parte matris…Eigilwi nobilissimi generic Saxonici" as second wife of Emperor Louis, specifying that she was "enim pulchra valde"[1792]. The Vita Hludowici Imperatoris records the marriage of "Iudith filiam Welponis…comitis" and Emperor Louis I[1793]. The Annales Xantenses record the marriage in Feb 819 of "Ludewicus imperator" and "Iudith"[1794]. Judith was influential with her husband, which increased the tensions with his sons by his first marriage. Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris records that "quondam duce Bernhardo, qui erat de stirpe regali" was accused of violating "Iudith reginam" but comments that this was all lies[1795]. Judith was exiled to the monastery of Sainte-Croix de Poitiers during the first rebellion of her stepsons in 830, was released in 831, but exiled again to Tortona in Italy in 833 from where she was brought back in Apr 834[1796]. The necrology of the abbey of Saint-Denis records the death "XIII Kal Mai" of "Judith regina"[1797]. The Annales Xantenses record the death in 843 of "Iudhit imperatrix mater Karoli" at Tours[1798]. m (Aix-la-Chapelle Feb 819) as his second wife, Emperor LOUIS I, son of Emperor CHARLES I "Charlemagne" King of the Franks & his second wife Hildegardis (Chasseneuil-du-Poitou {Vienne} [16 Apr/Sep] 778-island in the Rhine near Ingelheim 20 Jun 840, bur bur Metz, église abbatiale de Saint-Arnoul).

4. EMMA [Hemma] (-31 Jan 876, bur Regensburg St Emmeran). Emma is named as the wife of Ludwig II King of Germany in numerous charters and narrative sources. However, her family origin is only indicated by a single source: the Annales Xantenses record the marriage in 827 of "Ludewicus rex" and "sororem Iudith imperatricis" without naming her[1799]. This contrasts with the number of primary sources which specify the parentage of the Empress Judith and her two brothers Rudolf and Conrad. The absence of further references to Emma’s family could indicate a distinction between the status of the two sisters within the Welf dynasty. The term “soror” could include sisters who did not share both parents, but the chronology of the lives of the empress’s parents suggests no time for a second marriage on either side. Judith’s father’s death is dated to [824/25], while her mother is recorded as abbess at Chelles in 833. Emma’s marriage date suggests that she was younger than Judith, but the birth of children soon after the marriage places her birth in [812/15] at the latest. As no indication has been found that Judith’s parents separated and that her father remarried, it is assumed that the sparsity of sources detailing Emma’s parentage results merely from the lack of surviving records. "Ludowicus…rex" made a donation to St Felix & Regula in Zurich naming "filia nostra Bertha…[et] coniugis nostræ Hemmæ" by charter dated 29 Oct 863[1800]. The Gesta Francorum records that "Hemma quoque regina" became paralysed in 874, died at Regensburg in 876 and was buried in the church of St Emmeran[1801]. The necrology of Regensburg St Emmeran records the death "II Kal Feb" of "Hemma regina hic sepulta"[1802]. The necrology of Augia Divis records the death "II Kal Feb" of "Hemma regina"[1803]. The necrology of Nonnberg records the death "2 Kal Jan" of "Hemma imperatrix sor n^a"[1804]. m (827) LOUIS King of Bavaria and Carinthia, son of Emperor LOUIS I "le Pieux" & his first wife Ermengardis [de Hesbaye] ([806]-Frankfurt-am-Main 28 Aug 876, bur Kloster Lorsch). He was installed in 843 as LUDWIG II "le Germanique" King of the East Franks.

ETICHO, son of [WELF [I] Graf im Linz- und Alpgau & his wife ---] (-after 911, bur Ammergau). The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. The Historia Welforum names "Eticho…Iuditæ frater"[1805] but this is chronologically impossible. Graf im Ammergau.

m ---. The name of Eticho's wife is not known.

Eticho & his wife had one child:

1. HEINRICH "mit dem goldenen Wagen/cum aureo curru" (-after 934). The Historia Welforum names "Heinricum I" as son of "Eticho"[1806]. The Genealogia Welforum names "filium Heinricum et filiam Hiltigardam" as children of "Eticho", specifying that Hildegard married "Ludowicus Balbus imperator"[1807] although the latter is clearly incorrect. This is repeated in the Urspergensium Chronicon[1808]. According to legend, Heinrich was offered as a fief by the emperor as much land as he could plough at noon-day. Using a golden plough drawn by a relay of saddle horses, he encircled a large area while the emperor slept, hence his nickname[1809]. He founded Kloster Altdorf in 935 at the foot of the family's main castle at Altdorf[1810]. A codex of Kloster Weingarten records that "Henricus…pater…sancti Cunradi episcopi cum uxore sua Beata et filiis sui Ethichone et Rudolfo" constructed Kloster Altorf, adding that "Beata cum filio suo Rudolfo" were buried there[1811]. m ATA von Hohenwart, daughter of --- (-after 975). The Genealogia Welforum names "Atham" as wife of "Heinricum", but does not give her origin[1812]. The Historia Welforum names "de Hohunwarthe in Baioaria, Beatem" as wife of "Heinricus"[1813]. A member of a noble family in the Weltheim area, she brought territory in Bavaria to her husband[1814]. A codex of Kloster Weingarten records that "Henricus…pater…sancti Cunradi episcopi cum uxore sua Beata et filiis sui Ethichone et Rudolfo" constructed Kloster Altorf, adding that "Beata cum filio suo Rudolfo" were buried there[1815]. Heinrich & his wife had three children:

a) ETICHO (- ----, bur Konstanz Cathedral). The Historia Welforum names (in order) "sanctum Counradum Constanciensem episcopum, Etichonem et Roudolfum" as the three sons of "Heinricus" & his wife, specifying that Eticho died without having married and was buried at Konstanz[1816]. The Annalista Saxo names (in order) "tres fratres Rodulfus, Eticho, qui et Welphus, et Conradus; qui tempore Heinrici regis, patris Ottonis Magni extiterunt"[1817]. The Genealogia Welforum names (in order) "sanctum Chunradum Constantinensem episcopum, Etichonem et Rudolfem" as children of "Heinricum" & his wife, specifying that Eticho died unmarried but left illegitimate children from whom descend "illi de Hezilescella, de Ustera, de Ramphteswilaren"[1818]. A codex of Kloster Weingarten records that "Henricus…pater…sancti Cunradi episcopi cum uxore sua Beata et filiis sui Ethichone et Rudolfo" constructed Kloster Altorf, adding that "Beata cum filio suo Rudolfo" were buried there[1819]. Eticho had [---] illegitimate children by an unknown mistress:

i) children . The Historia Welforum refers to the daughter of Eticho and "de ministerialibus suis filiam" from whom were descended "de Heciliscella, de Ustera, de Raprehteswillare et eorum cognatio"[1820].

b) [St.] KONRAD (-26 Nov 975). The Historia Welforum names (in order) "sanctum Counradum Constanciensem episcopum, Etichonem et Roudolfum" as the three sons of "Heinricus" & his wife, specifying that Konrad owned "Alidorf, et Wolpoteswende, Berge, Fronehoven…et omnia ultra fluvium nostrum Scuzina" from the paternal patrimony, exchanging these properties with his brother Rudolf for "Ensilingen, Audilvingen…in Alsatia Colmir et infra Retiam Curiensem Amidis, Flumines, Lugeniz"[1821]. The Annalista Saxo names (in order) "tres fratres Rodulfus, Eticho, qui et Welphus, et Conradus; qui tempore Heinrici regis, patris Ottonis Magni extiterunt", specifying that Konrad was Bishop of Konstanz[1822]. The Genealogia Welforum names (in order) "sanctum Chunradum Constantinensem episcopum, Etichonem et Rudolfem" as children of "Heinricum" & his wife[1823]. Bishop of Konstanz 934. A codex of Kloster Weingarten records that "Henricus…pater…sancti Cunradi episcopi cum uxore sua Beata et filiis sui Ethichone et Rudolfo" constructed Kloster Altorf, adding that "Beata cum filio suo Rudolfo" were buried there[1824].

c) RUDOLF (- ----, bur Altdorf). The Historia Welforum names (in order) "sanctum Counradum Constanciensem episcopum, Etichonem et Roudolfum" as the three sons of "Heinricus" & his wife[1825]. The Annalista Saxo names (in order) "tres fratres Rodulfus, Eticho, qui et Welphus, et Conradus; qui tempore Heinrici regis, patris Ottonis Magni extiterunt"[1826]. The Genealogia Welforum names (in order) "sanctum Chunradum Constantinensem episcopum, Etichonem et Rudolfem" as children of "Heinricum" & his wife[1827]. A codex of Kloster Weingarten records that "Henricus…pater…sancti Cunradi episcopi cum uxore sua Beata et filiis sui Ethichone et Rudolfo" constructed Kloster Altorf, adding that "Beata cum filio suo Rudolfo" were buried there[1828]. m --- (bur Altdorf). The primary source which confirms her marriage has not yet been identified. Rudolf & his wife had [two] children:

i) [RUDOLF (-10 Mar ----, bur Altdorf).]

- see below.

ii) [1829]ETICHO (-988). Bishop of Augsburg.

RUDOLF, son of [RUDOLF Graf von Altdorf & his wife ---] (-10 Mar ----, bur Altdorf). All the near contemporary primary sources so far consulted name Rudolf, father of Heinrich and Welf [II] as the brother of Konrad Bishop of Konstanz. For example, Berthold's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names "Couniza, Welphonis primi nostri advocati mater, filia…Welphonis Carentorum ducis qui fuit Roudolfi fratris sancti Counradi filius"[1830]. If this is correct, Ita von Öhningen would have been at least 40 years younger than her husband. As this seems unlikely, the most probable explanation is that there has been a conflation of two individuals, father and son, both named Rudolf but there is no proof that this is correct. The Historia Welforum records that "Roudolfus" was buried "in Altorfensi cenobio iuxta patrem et matrem"[1831]. The necrology of Weingarten records the death "VI Id Mar" of "Ruodolfus com frater sancti Chuonradi…et Welf filius eius…hic sepulti"[1832].

m ITA von Öhningen, daughter of KONRAD Duke of Swabia [Konradiner] & his wife Richlint --- ([970/75]-16 Oct ----). The Genealogia Welforum names "de Oningen Itam…cuius pater fuit Chuno comes, mater vero filia Ottonis Magni imperatoris" as wife of Rudolf[1833]. The Historia Welforum refers to the four daughters of "Couno comes" and "filia Ottonis magnis imperatoris…Richlint", specifying that they married "una Roudolfo isti [=Welforum], alia cuidam de Rinveldin, parenti Zaringiorum, tercia regie Rugiorum, quarta comiti de Diezon"[1834]. As noted in the document SWABIA DUKES, these two sources are unreliable in their recording of the sons of Konrad I Duke of Swabia, so should not be assumed to be any more precise in recording his daughters. Her birth date is estimated assuming that her parents married in [968]. The necrology of Weingarten records the death "XVII Kal Nov" of "Ita com uxor Ruodolfi comitis"[1835].

Rudolf & his wife had three children:

1. HEINRICH (-15 Nov [1000]). The Genealogia Welforum names "Heinricum, qui apud Lonon in venatione saxo percussis interiit, et Gwelfum huius nominis primum" as sons of Rudolf and Ita[1836]. The Historia Welforum names (in order) "Heinricum et Guelfonem et filiam Richgardam" as the children of "Roudolfus" & his wife, specifying that Heinrich was buried "sub annis adolescentie in Venusta valle iuxta villam Lounon in venatione saxo percussus"[1837]. Graf in Altdorf. The necrology of Weingarten records the donation "VI Id Feb" of "predium Minigolsowe" by "Heinricus com filius Ruodolfi comitis hic sepultus"[1838].

2. WELF [II] (-10 Mar 1030, bur Altdorf). The Genealogia Welforum names "Heinricum, qui apud Lonon in venatione saxo percussis interiit, et Gwelfum huius nominis primum" as sons of Rudolf and Ita, specifying that he was buried at Weingarten[1839]. The Historia Welforum names (in order) "Heinricum et Guelfonem et filiam Richgardam" as the children of "Roudolfus" & his wife[1840]. The Annalista Saxo names "Welphum comitem" as son of Rudolf (brother of Eticho/Welf and Konrad, although this appears difficult to sustain chronologically)[1841]. Graf von Altdorf. Graf im Nori- und Inntal. "Heinricus…Romanorum imperator augustus" renewed the privileges of Kloster Fulda by undated charter, placed in the compilation with other charters dated 1020, witnessed by "Godifridi ducis, Berinhardi ducis, Thiederici ducis, Welphonis comitis, Cunonis comitis, Kunrati comitis, Ottonis comitis, Adilbrahtis comitis, Bobonis comitis, Friderici comitis, Bezilini comitis, Ezonis comitis palatini"[1842], the order of witnesses presumably giving some idea of the relative importance of these named nobles at the court of Emperor Heinrich II at the time. A codex of Kloster Weingarten records that "dux Welfo…cum uxore sua Irmindrude…de Glizberc" transferred Kloster Altorf "super montem"[1843]. His county around the Brenner pass was confiscated by Emperor Konrad II as a punishment for Welf having supported Ernst Duke of Swabia in his rebellion in 1030[1844]. He built the castle of Ravensburg on his Swabian lands which became the family's chief residence[1845]. The necrology of Weingarten records the death "VI Id Mar" of "Ruodolfus com frater sancti Chuonradi…et Welf filius eius…hic sepulti"[1846]. m ([1015]) IRMTRUD [Imiza], daughter of [FRIEDRICH Graf im Moselgau] [Wigeriche] & his wife --- [von Hammerstein] [Konradiner] (-21 Aug [1055], bur Altomünster). The Historia Welforum names "de gente Salica de castro Glizberch, Imizam…sororem Heinrici ducis Noricorum et Friderici ducis Lotharingiorum et Adilberonis episcopi Metensis" as wife of "Guelfo…Roudolfi filius"[1847]. The Genealogia Welforum names "Salice --- de Glizperch Imizam nomine, Heinrici Noricorum ducis sororem et Friderici ducis Lotharingorum et Alberonis Metensis episcopi" as wife of Welf, specifying that she was buried at Altenmünster and that her dowry was "villam Moringen et Elisinam curtem in Longobardia"[1848]. Irmtrud´s father is shown above in square brackets to indicate doubt: there is some possibility that she was born from an earlier marriage of her mother´s, explained further in the document HESSEN. If that is correct, she was IRMTRUD [Imiza] daughter of --- von Gleiberg & his wife --- [von Hammerstein]. Jordan suggests that the land in Lombardy was probably near Este[1849], which could explain their daughter's marriage as her husband may have been a neighbouring landowner. After the death of her son, she contested his will under which he bequeathed all his property to the convent of Weingarten, and summoned her grandson from Italy to assume the inheritance in Swabia and Bavaria. The nuns of Weingarten were resettled in Altomünster in Bavaria, relocating the monks to Weingarten as part of the settlement of the dispute[1850]. A codex of Kloster Weingarten records that "dux Welfo…cum uxore sua Irmindrude…de Glizberc" transferred Kloster Altorf "super montem"[1851]. Herimannus names "Irmengarda, Welf comitis vidua" when recording the transfer to her of Altdorf by the monks[1852]. The necrology of Weingarten records the death "XII Kal Sep" of "Irmindruot com que et Imiza mater Welfonis et Chuonize"[1853]. Welf [II] & his wife had [three] children:

a) WELF [III] (-Burg Bodman 13 Nov 1055). The Historia Welforum names "filiam Chunizam…et filium…Guelfum" as the children of "Guelfo…Roudolfi filius", specifying that Welf acquired "ducatum Carinthiorum et marchiam Veronensem"[1854]. Herimannus names "Welf comitem, Suevigenam, Welf dudum comitis filium" when recording his installation as Duke of Carinthia in 1047[1855]. He transferred the convent of Altdorf to a site on Martinsberg and renamed it Weingarten[1856]. He was installed as WELF I Duke of Carinthia and Marchese di Verona by Heinrich III King of Germany in 1047. He conspired with Konrad de Luxembourg Duke of Bavaria to depose Emperor Heinrich III, but the plot was discovered and Welf was deposed as Duke of Carinthia[1857]. Under his will, he left all his property to the convent at Weingarten, intending to be buried there. His mother contested the testament on the grounds that she, as lawful heir, had not consented to it[1858]. The necrology of Fulda records the death in 1055 of "Welf dux"[1859]. The necrology of Weingarten records the death "Id Nov" of "Welfo dux Carinthie hic sepultus"[1860].

b) KUNIGUNDE ([1020]-31 Mar before 1055, bur Vangadizza Monastery). The Annalista Saxo names "Cunizam" as daughter of Welf, and her husband "Azoni marchioni de Langobardia de castris Calun et Estin"[1861]. The Genealogia Welforum names "Cunizam" as daughter of Welf and Imiza, specifying that she married "marchio Etius cum curte Elisina"[1862]. m ([1035]) as his first wife, ALBERTO AZZO II Conte di Luni [Este], son of ALBERTO AZZO I Conte di Luni & his first wife Valdriada Candriada (-1097, bur Vangadizza Monastery).

c) [KONRAD (-27 Aug 1031). The Chronico Eberspergense records the death in 1031 of "Chuonradus…adoptivus filius Rihlindis amitæ eius"[1863]. There is no indication of his parentage although Graf Welf [II] is the only one of Richlind's brothers who is known to have had children.]

3. RICHLIND (-Burg Persenbeug 12 Jun 1045, bur Ebersberg monastery). The Historia Welforum names (in order) "Heinricum et Guelfonem et filiam Richgardam" as the children of "Roudolfus" & his wife, specifying that Richgard married "unus de maioribus Baioariæ comitibus" but had no heirs, founded the monasteries of "Ebirsperc, Coubach, Gisinveld" and was buried at Ebersberg[1864]. The Genealogia Welforum names "Richardam" as daughter of Rudolf and Ita, specifying that she founded the monasteries of Ebersberg (jointly with her children "ex quondam ditissimo Bawarie comite"), Gisenvelt and Chubach and was buried at Ebersberg[1865]. The Chronico Eberspergensi names "Richlindem filiam Rudolfi Suevi sororem Welfhardi comitis qui rebellavit Heinrico regis secundo" as wife of "Adalpero [filii Udalrici]", specifying that she was childless[1866]. m ADALBERO Graf von Ebersberg, son of UDALRICH Graf von Ebersberg, Marchese di Carniola [Sieghardinger] & his wife Richgardis von Viehbach [Eppensteiner] (-27 Mar 1045).

The precise relationship between the following individual and the Welf family has not yet been established:

1. OTHMAR . The Casuum Sancti Galli, Continuatio I, Ekkehardo IV names "sancto Otmaro", commenting that he was "Ruodolfus…Welhardi comitis pater…prosapiæ…ipsum Welfhardus et Henricus filii eius"[1867].

F. GRAFEN von NELLENBURG, GRAFEN von MÖRSBERG

Graf Adalbert & his wife had two children:

a) IRMENTRUD . Nun at St Agnes, Schaffhausen.

b) MATHILDE (-12 Mar [1152/1180]). Her parentage and first marriage are confirmed by the charter dated 30 Aug 1125 under which "Maynardus…comes Morspeccensis" donated the priory of la Celle near Metz to Suger abbé de Saint-Denis after the death of "Adalberti comitis" whose daughter "Mattildis" he had married[1878].

G. GRAFEN von PFULLENDORF und RAMSPERG

The primary sources which confirm the parentage and marriages of members of this family have not yet been identified, unless otherwise stated below.

1. ULRICH . Graf von Ramsberg [near Pfullendorf, Baden]. An undated charter, dated to the reign of Heinrich IV King of Germany [1056/84], which records a donation to Rheinau was signed "apud Rammisheim in pago Hegouve in comitatu Uodalrici comitis de Rammesperch" in the presence of "Gerungo comite de Stulingen"[1882].

2. GERO (-17 May [1080/1110], bur Kloster Petershausen). Graf von Pfullendorf.

3. LUDWIG von Pfullendorf (-murdered Tübingen 28 Jan 1135, bur Reichenau). Abbot of Reichenau 1131.

1. ULRICH (-1155 or after). Graf von Ramsperg. Graf im Hegau. m ADELHEID, daughter of --- (-before 28 Jun 1125). The Casus Monasterii Petrishusensis records the donation by "Roudolfus comes de Rammisberch" dated 1163 which names "matris meæ Adilheide"[1883]. According to Europäische Stammtafeln[1884], the wife of Graf Ulrich may have been Adelheid von Bregenz, daughter of Ulrich [X] Graf von Bregenz & his wife Bertha von Rheinfelden. This is presumably based on a chronicle about the bishopric of Konstanz written by Jakob Manlius (date not specified) which records that in 1098 Kloster Bregenz was founded by “Ulrico...Rhetorum et Brigantiæ comite qui fuit avus...comitis Rudolphi de Pfullendorf”[1885]. The Casus Monasterii Petrishusensis records details relating to both the Bregenz and Ramsberg/Pfullendorf families, including the marriage of Graf Ulrich [X], which suggests that this family connection may be correct[1886]. Her name is confirmed by the Casus Monasterii Petrishusensis which records the donation by [her son] "Roudolfus comes de Rammisberch" dated 1163 which names "matris meæ Adilheide"[1887]. Graf Ulrich & his wife had three children:

a) [ULRICH . Graf von Pfullendorf 1157-1158.]

b) RUDOLF (-9 Jan 1181). Graf von Ramsperg. The History of Salem Monastery lists those present at a court of "duce Friderico", including "comite Rudolfo de Ramsperc", undated but dateable to [1152][1888]. "…Rudolfus comes de Rammesburg…" witnessed the charter dated 27 Nov 1155 under which Emperor Friedrich I confirmed possessions of the church of Konstanz[1889]. "Sex comites…comes Rudolfus de Rammesperc…" witnessed the charter dated 1163 under which Ulrich Abbot of Reichenau confirmed donations to the abbey[1890]. Graf von Pfullendorf. A charter dated 1168 names "Rodulfus comes de Phullendorf, sororius comitis Rodolfi de Bragantia" and records the grant of "Turicensem comitatum et advocatiam Sechingensis ecclesiæ" [Zurich, Seckingen] by Emperor Friedrich I "Barbarossa" to "Alberto comiti de Habisburc" who married "filiam comitis Rodolfi"[1891]. The explanation for the relationship "sororius" has not been found. However, the connection with Bregenz is indicated by the suggested family origin of Rudolf´s mother (see above). Graf von Bregenz. Graf von Lindau. Vogt von St Gallen 1166. Vogt of Chur until 1170. After the death of his only son from malaria in Italy, Graf Rudolf agreed to the transfer of his possessions to Emperor Friedrich I "Barbarossa" between 1167 and 1180[1892]. “...Rudolphus comes de Phulendorf...” witnessed the charter dated 4 Mar 1173 under which Emperor Friedrich I confirmed donations to the church of Bero made by “comitis Ulrici...de Lenzburg”[1893]. m [as her first/second husband,] ELISABETH, daughter of --- (-11 Oct [1164/80]). The Casus Monasterii Petrishusensis records the donation of "apud Rinisgimunde" by "Roudolfus comes de Rammisberch" dated 1163 which names "matris meæ Adilheide", witnessed by "uxor mea Elisabeth, frater meus Arnoldus…"[1894]. According to a Habsburg genealogy, the mother of "Itam cometissam de Pfullendorf" was "filiam sororis ducis Welph"[1895]. She married [firstly/secondly] --- [von Rheinfelden], father of KUNO [von Rheinfelden][1896]. Graf Rudolf & his wife had two children:

i) ITA . A Habsburg genealogy names "Itam cometissam de Pfullendorf, filiam sororis ducis Welph" as the wife of "Alberctus"[1897]. Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by a charter dated 1168 which names "Rodulfus comes de Phullendorf, sororius comitis Rodolfi de Bragantia" and records the grant of "Turicensem comitatum et advocatiam Sechingensis ecclesiæ" [Zurich, Seckingen] by Emperor Friedrich I "Barbarossa" to "Alberto comiti de Habisburc" who married "filiam comitis Rodolfi"[1898]. m ALBRECHT [III] "der Reiche" Graf von Habsburg, son of WERNER [II] Graf von Habsburg und im Oberelsaß & his wife --- (-11 Feb 1199).

I. GRAFEN von STÜHLINGEN

1. GERUNG . Graf von Stühlingen [near Bonndorf, Baden]. An undated charter, dated to the reign of Heinrich IV King of Germany [1056/84], which records a donation to Rheinau was signed "apud Rammisheim in pago Hegouve in comitatu Uodalrici comitis de Rammesperch" in the presence of "Gerungo comite de Stulingen"[1906].

I. TRUCHSEßEN von WALDBURG

Vochezer records an earlier family of Truchseßen von Waldburg, cited from the early 12th to the early 13th century[1907]. Some of the later members of this family are named in sources cited below.

Six brothers, primary sources which name their parents have not been identified. The apparently lengthy career of Eberhard [I], named between 1179 and 1234, suggests the possibility that the earliest charters quoted below, in which Eberhard and his brother Berthold are named, relate to different brothers with the same names in the preceding generation.

1. EBERHARD [I] von Tanne (-after 26 May 1234). "…Fridericus de Walburch, Eberhardus de Walhse, Eberhardus de Tanne et frater suus Bertolfus, Bertolfus de Walhse…" witnessed the charter dated 25 Dec 1179 under which Friedrich VI Duke of Swabia confirmed property of Kloster Kreuzlingen[1908]. "Euerhardus de Waltse et Conradus, Bertoldus Euerhardi filius, Bertoldus et Euerhardus de Thanne…" witnessed the charter dated 12 May 1181 under which Emperor Friedrich I transferred the church of Waldsee to the Augustins[1909]. "Ministeriales: Eberhardus de Tanne…" witnessed the charter dated 1 Jun 1187 under which Friedrich VI Duke of Swabia granted property to Kloster Bebenhausen[1910]. "Comes Godefridus de Veingen, Ulricus marshalcus de Rechperg et filius suus Hildeb., Heinricus dapifer de Waltpurc, Eberhardus pincerna de Tanne…" witnessed the charter dated 30 Jul 1197 under which Philipp Duke of Swabia donated property of Kloster Weissenau[1911]. “...Heinricus dapifer de Walpurch...Eberhardus de Tanne et Bertholdus frater eiusdem et Eberhardus ipsorum nepos similiter de Tanne...” witnessed the charter dated 30 Jul 1205 under which Philipp King of Germany confirmed an agreement between Konrad Bishop of Regensburg and Ludwig Duke of Bavaria[1912]. Friedrich II King of Germany placed Kloster Tennebach under his protection by charter dated 12 Mar 1214, witnessed by "...Evirhardus pincerna de Tanna, Cunradus de Tanna"[1913]. Truchseß: "...Eberhardus dapifer de Tanne…" witnessed the charter dated 23 Oct 1214 under which Friedrich II King of Germany donated Kirchheim church to St. Sepulchre at Dietbrücke bei Speier[1914]. "...Ebirardus dapifer de Tanne et Bertoldus frater suus..." witnessed the charter dated 15 Jul 1216 under which Friedrich II King of Germany placed Kloster Raitenhaslach under his protection[1915]. Truchseß von Waldburg: "...Eberhardus de Waltburc dapifer..." witnessed the charter dated 11 Sep 1219 under which Friedrich II King of Germany granted protection to the town of Strasbourg[1916]. The Burchardi et Cuonradi Urspergensium Chronicon records that “insignia imperii...coronem et alia” were sent to Swabia “sub potestate Eberhardi de Tanne ministerialis et dapiferi sui in castro Walpurc” while Emperor Friedrich II was in Italy, dated 1221[1917]. “Eberhardus de Walpurc imperialis aulæ dapifer” confirmed the donation made to Kloster Kaisheim by “socrus sua Adelhaidis Augustensis præfectissa ex bonis suis in villa Zimbern” by charter dated to [1221], witnessed by “K--- de Walpurc...”[1918]. “Eberardus dapifer de Waltpurc filium suum Fridericum cum uxore sua” witnessed the charter dated 1228 which recorded the sale of “predium in Vizzelinsbach”[1919]. “Eberhardus dapifer de Waltpurc” (with various spelling and title variations) witnessed numerous other imperial charters dated between 1219 and 26 May 1234, none of which names other family members[1920]. “Heinrico protonothario imperialis aule...preposituram Augustensis et Constantiensis ecclesie, Peregrino fratre suo canonico...Cunrado canonico filio dapiferi de Walpurch...Eberhardus dampifer de Walpurch, Fridericus filius eius...” witnessed the charter dated 1226 relating to Bregenz church[1921]. The necrology of Weissenau commemorates 22 May “dapiferorum de Waltpurg: ...Eberhardi et uxoris eius Adelheidis...”[1922], an entry which clearly does not commemorate the deaths on that date of all the persons named. m firstly ADELHEID, daughter of --- & his wife Adelheid --- (-17 Jul ----, [1212/20], bur Weissenau). An undated charter records that “Eberhardus dapifer de Walpurc” donated property “in Benzenhovin” to Weissenau, noting that “temporibus regis Friderici [=1212-1220] habuit idem Ebirhardus quandam legitimam...Adilheidim” who was buried there at which time her husband made this donation (noting that “nepotis sui [=Eberhard or Adelheid?] Alberti militis cognomine Turbin” also held an interest in the property)[1923]. The sons of Albrecht Turbin are named in another undated charter of Weissenau[1924]. "Eberhardus dapifer de Walpurch pater...Eberhardi Constanciensis episcopi" donated “dimidiam partem in Benzenhoven” to Weingarten for the soul of “uxoris sue Adelheidis”, undated[1925]. The death of Adelheid, first wife of Eberhard, is recorded 17 Jul in the necrology of Konstanz, her husband donating property donating property for her soul[1926]. The necrology of Weissenau commemorates 22 May “dapiferorum de Waltpurg: ...Eberhardi et uxoris eius Adelheidis...”[1927], an entry which clearly does not commemorate the deaths on that date of all the persons named. “Eberhardus de Walpurc imperialis aulæ dapifer” confirmed the donation made to Kloster Kaisheim by “socrus sua Adelhaidis Augustensis præfectissa ex bonis suis in villa Zimbern” by charter dated to [1221], witnessed by “K--- de Walpurc...”[1928]. Given the indication of Adelheid’s date of death, it is likely that this charter refers to Adelheid’s mother. m secondly WILLIBIRG, daughter of --- (-[before 1227]). Vochezer names Willibirg as Eberhard’s second wife, adding that she donated property to Kloster Weissenau[1929]. However, some confusion is suggested relating to this donation as, in another passage, Vochezer records that [her supposed grandson] “Walter in Warthausen” confirmed the donation of “einen Hof in Wolpertseim” made to Kloster Weissenau by “seine Mutter Willibirg” charter dated 4 Nov 1258[1930]. The confusion appears clarified by the following document: “matrona...Willibirgis domini Eberhardi dapiferi de Waltburc altera coniunx legitima” donated property to Weissenau so that “ipsius ac mariti sui domini E. dapiferi et filiorum eius” should always be remembered, undated[1931]. Vochezer says that Eberhard’s sons Friedrich, Heinrich, Ulrich and his daughter Willibirg were born to this second wife. In the case of Friedrich, Heinrich and Ulrich, this is impossible from a chronological point of view given Eberhard’s first wife’s date of death shown above. The reference to “filiorum eius”, contrasting with “mariti sui”, in the previous document suggests that none of Eberhard’s children alive at that date were born to Willibirg. Given the reference to Eberhard’s possible third wife shown below, maybe Willibirg was the name of that third wife who, as noted below, was childless in 1227. [m thirdly (before 26 May 1227) --- von Klingen, daughter of ---. “Ulricus de Klingen” pledged “feoda...in Herdern...et castrum Klingen” to “Eberherdo dapifero de Walpurg”, noting that his obligations would be undertaken by the church of Konstanz should he die during the minority of his sons, and that the money would be repaid to “dem Truchsäßen et filio vel filiis, si quos per sororem Ulrici genuierit”, by charter dated 26 May 1227[1932]. Despite Eberhard [I]’s advanced age, he appears to be the most likely candidate for the husband of Ulrich [II] von Klingen’s sister as he appears to have been the only member of the Waldburg family named Eberhard who bore the title “Truchseß” at the time. Presumably the marriage took place shortly before the date of the charter as the document provides for the possibility of future children. Maybe she was called Willibirg, and was therefore the same person as Eberhard’s second wife shown above.] Eberhard [I] & his first wife had three children:

a) EBERHARD von Waldburg (-20 Feb 1274, bur Konstanz). "Eberhardus dapifer de Walpurch pater...Eberhardi Constanciensis episcopi" donated “dimidiam partem in Benzenhoven” to Weingarten for the soul of “uxoris sue Adelheidis”, undated[1933]. Canon at Konstanz 1235. Provost of Konstanz St. Stephan 1236. Bishop of Konstanz 1248.

b) OTTO BERTHOLD von Waldburg (-after 12 Apr 1263). Truchseß von Waldburg: “Otto Bertholdus dapifer de Waltpurc” acted as proxy in a dispute involving Kempten abbey by charter dated 1239[1934]. “Otto Berchtoldus dapifer de Walpurch” (with various spelling and title variations) witnessed numerous other charters dated between 1240 and 12 Apr 1263, none of which names other family members[1935]. The necrology of Weissenau commemorates 22 May “dapiferorum de Waltpurg: Hainrici, Friderici uterinorum fratrum, Eberhardi et uxoris eius Adelheidis et filiorum eius Ulrici, Friderici et Hainrici et Willibirgis et Fridrici et Ulrici et uxoris eorundem, Waltheri et Anne uxoris eius, Cunradi, Adelhaidis, Ottonis, Berchtoldi”[1936] , an entry which clearly does not commemorate the deaths on that date of all the persons named. m ---. The name of Otto Berthold’s wife is not known. Otto Bernhard & his wife had children:

i) EBERHARD [II] von Waldburg (-2 Dec 1291). Truchseß von Waldburg. “Bertoldus et Eberhardus dapiferi dicti de Walpurch” donated “dimidiam decimam in Pridrichingen” to Diessen, at the request of “avunculi nostri Seifridi de Algishusen” [not identified in the family], by charter dated 1271, sealed by “Bertoldus, quia Eberhardus patruus meus...sigillum proprium non habuit”[1937].

- see below.

c) KONRAD von Waldburg . Canon at Konstanz. “Heinrico protonothario imperialis aule...preposituram Augustensis et Constantiensis ecclesie, Peregrino fratre suo canonico...Cunrado canonico filio dapiferi de Walpurch...Eberhardus dampifer de Walpurch, Fridericus filius eius...” witnessed the charter dated 1226 relating to Bregenz church[1938]. The necrology of Weissenau commemorates 22 May “dapiferorum de Waltpurg: Hainrici, Friderici uterinorum fratrum, Eberhardi et uxoris eius Adelheidis et filiorum eius Ulrici, Friderici et Hainrici et Willibirgis et Fridrici et Ulrici et uxoris eorundem, Waltheri et Anne uxoris eius, Cunradi, Adelhaidis, Ottonis, Berchtoldi”[1939] , an entry which clearly does not commemorate the deaths on that date of all the persons named.

Eberhard [I] & his [first] wife had three children (Vochezer names Eberhard’s second wife as their mother, which is impossible chronologically given the date of death of Eberhard’s first wife):

d) HEINRICH von Waldburg (-after [Aug] 1228). "...Henricus dapifer de Wartborch..." witnessed the charter dated May 1222 which records the decison of Heinrich VII King of Germany relating to feudal rights in Lorraine and Brabant[1940]. "...Henricus dapifer regis..." witnessed the charter dated 23 Jul 1224 under which Heinrich VII King of Germany granted protection to Kloster Celle Santa Maria[1941]. "...Henricus dapifer de Walpurch..." witnessed the charter dated [Aug] 1228 under which Heinrich VII King of Germany confirmed rights of Kloster Schönau[1942]. “Milites Hainricus et Fridericus uterini fratres dapiferi de Waltburc” donated “duas curias unam in Riethhusen et alteram in Rorgimos et duas scopozas in Sulpach” to Weissenau, undated[1943]. “Miles...Hainricus domini Eberhardi filius dapiferi de Waltburc” donated property to Weissenau for his burial there, undated, the same document noting the donation made by “sorore...eius...Willibirgi”[1944]. The necrology of Weissenau commemorates 22 May “dapiferorum de Waltpurg: Hainrici, Friderici uterinorum fratrum, Eberhardi et uxoris eius Adelheidis et filiorum eius Ulrici, Friderici et Hainrici et Willibirgis et Fridrici et Ulrici et uxoris eorundem, Waltheri et Anne uxoris eius, Cunradi, Adelhaidis, Ottonis, Berchtoldi”[1945] , an entry which clearly does not commemorate the deaths on that date of all the persons named.

e) FRIEDRICH von Waldburg (-after 1228). “Milites Hainricus et Fridericus uterini fratres dapiferi de Waltburc” donated “duas curias unam in Riethhusen et alteram in Rorgimos et duas scopozas in Sulpach” to Weissenau, undated[1946]. “Heinrico protonothario imperialis aule...preposituram Augustensis et Constantiensis ecclesie, Peregrino fratre suo canonico...Cunrado canonico filio dapiferi de Walpurch...Eberhardus dampifer de Walpurch, Fridericus filius eius...” witnessed the charter dated 1226 relating to Bregenz church[1947]. “Eberardus dapifer de Waltpurc filium suum Fridericum cum uxore sua” witnessed the charter dated 1228 which recorded the sale of “predium in Vizzelinsbach”[1948]. Friedrich bought a large part of Rohrdorf from Heinrich [I] Graf von Neuffen, whose wife was niece of Manegold Graf von Rohrdorf[1949]. The necrology of Weissenau commemorates 22 May “dapiferorum de Waltpurg: Hainrici, Friderici uterinorum fratrum, Eberhardi et uxoris eius Adelheidis et filiorum eius Ulrici, Friderici et Hainrici et Willibirgis et Fridrici et Ulrici et uxoris eorundem, Waltheri et Anne uxoris eius, Cunradi, Adelhaidis, Ottonis, Berchtoldi”[1950] , an entry which clearly does not commemorate the deaths on that date of all the persons named. m ANNA, daughter of ---. She is commemorated but not named in the Weissenau necrology entry quoted above. “Electus miles...Fridericus domini E. de Waltburc dapiferi filius” donated property “in Ertingen” to Weissenau so she “ac mariti sui domini E. dapiferi et filiorum eius” should always be remembered, undated[1951]. Friedrich & his wife had three children:

i) BERTHOLD von Rohrdorf (-after 27 Feb 1277). “Ber. et H. fratres dapiferi de Walpurch, Walteri dapifer in Warthusen” witnessed a charter dated 20 Mar 1266 under which Eberhard Bishop of Konstanz donated property to Kloster Weissenau[1952]. “Bertoldus et Eberhardus dapiferi dicti de Walpurch” donated “dimidiam decimam in Pridrichingen” to Diessen, at the request of “avunculi nostri Seifridi de Algishusen” [not identified in the family], by charter dated 1271, sealed by “Bertoldus, quia Eberhardus patruus meus...sigillum proprium non habuit”[1953]. “Bertoldus et Eberhardus de Rordorf et de Walpurch, imperialis aule dapiferi, Swiggerus senior et Swiggerus miles et Hainricus filii sui de Mindelberc" sold “molendinum in Birkidorf” to Kloster Salem, with the consent of “Adilhaidis relicte beate memorie Waltheri dapiferi de Warthusen, prout...tutores pupillorum Eberhardi et Waltheri fratrum de Warthusen...uxor...Adilhaidis...domini Bertoldi de Druhcpurch fiila domini Ulrici beate memorie dapiferi de Warthusen”, by charter dated 27 Feb 1277[1954].

f) ULRICH von Waldburg (-[before Aug 1240], bur [Weissenau]). Herr von Warthausen. Ulrich and his brother Otto Berthold confirmed a donation to Kloster Weissenau made by “Heinrich Wildemann”, undated[1959]. “Miles...Ulricus domini E. dapiferi filius...cum coniuge sua Hirmingardi” donated property to Weissenau for their burial there[1960]. It is likely that he died before the Aug 1240 charter in which his sons are named. The necrology of Weissenau commemorates 22 May “dapiferorum de Waltpurg: Hainrici, Friderici uterinorum fratrum, Eberhardi et uxoris eius Adelheidis et filiorum eius Ulrici, Friderici et Hainrici et Willibirgis et Fridrici et Ulrici et uxoris eorundem, Waltheri et Anne uxoris eius, Cunradi, Adelhaidis, Ottonis, Berchtoldi”[1961], an entry which clearly does not commemorate the deaths on that date of all the persons named. m ERMENGARD, daughter of --- (-bur [Weissenau]). The primary source which records the name of Ulrich’s wife has not been identified. She is commemorated but not named in the Weissenau necrology entry quoted above. “Miles...Ulricus domini E. dapiferi filius...cum coniuge sua Hirmingardi” donated property to Weissenau for their burial there[1962]. [A later wife of Ulrich’s may have been named Willibirg: [her son] “Walter in Warthausen” confirmed the donation of “einen Hof in Wolpertseim” made to Kloster Weissenau by “seine Mutter Willibirg” charter dated 4 Nov 1258[1963]. However, as noted above under Ulrich’s father’s second wife, Volchezer in another passage names Willibirg as Ulrich’s mother.] Ulrich & his wife had three children:

i) ULRICH von Warthausen (-before 27 Feb 1277). “Ulrich, Heinrich und Walter Brüder Truchseßen von Warthausen” with “ihrem Onkel Otto Berthold Truchseßen von Waldburg und mit ihren Geschwisterkindern Berthold und Heinrich Brüdern und Truchseßen genannt von Rohrdorf” are named in a charter dated Aug 1240 under which “ihr Vetter Schenk Konrad von Winterstetten” donated property to Weingarten[1964]. The necrology of Weissenau records the death 4 May of “Ulrici, Irmengardis, Hainrici et Willibirgis de Warthusen”[1965]. He is named as deceased in the 27 Feb 1277 charter quoted below. m ---. The primary source which confirms the name of Ulrich’s wife has not been identified. Ulrich & his wife had one child:

(a) ADELHEID von Warthausen (-after 27 Feb 1277). “Bertoldus et Eberhardus de Rordorf et de Walpurch, imperialis aule dapiferi, Swiggerus senior et Swiggerus miles et Hainricus filii sui de Mindelberc" sold “molendinum in Birkidorf” to Kloster Salem, with the consent of “...uxor...Adilhaidis...domini Bertoldi de Druhcpurch fiila domini Ulrici beate memorie dapiferi de Warthusen”, by charter dated 27 Feb 1277[1966]. m BERTHOLD Herr von Trauchburg, son of --- (-after 27 Feb 1277).

iii) WALTER von Warthausen (-before 27 Feb 1277). “Ulrich, Heinrich und Walter Brüder Truchseßen von Warthausen” with “ihrem Onkel Otto Berthold Truchseßen von Waldburg und mit ihren Geschwisterkindern Berthold und Heinrich Brüdern und Truchseßen genannt von Rohrdorf” are named in a charter dated Aug 1240 under which “ihr Vetter Schenk Konrad von Winterstetten” donated property to Weingarten[1968]. “Walter in Warthausen” confirmed the donation of “einen Hof in Wolpertseim” made to Kloster Weissenau by “seine Mutter Willibirg” charter dated 4 Nov 1258[1969]. He was named as deceased in the 27 Feb 1277 charter quoted below. m ADELHEID, daughter of --- (-after 27 Feb 1277). “Bertoldus et Eberhardus de Rordorf et de Walpurch, imperialis aule dapiferi, Swiggerus senior et Swiggerus miles et Hainricus filii sui de Mindelberc" sold “molendinum in Birkidorf” to Kloster Salem, with the consent of “Adilhaidis relicte beate memorie Waltheri dapiferi de Warthusen, prout...tutores pupillorum Eberhardi et Waltheri fratrum de Warthusen...uxor...Adilhaidis...domini Bertoldi de Druhcpurch fiila domini Ulrici beate memorie dapiferi de Warthusen”, by charter dated 27 Feb 1277[1970]. Walter & his wife had two children:

Vochezer cites a charter dated 11 Aug 1321 sealed by Walter and another dated 2 Feb 1325 in which Warthausen is held by the Herren von Waldsee, suggesting that he may have died in battle 28 Sep 1322 at Mühldorf am Inn[1973].

Eberhard [I] & his [first/second] wife had one child:

g) WILLIBIRG von Waldburg (-bur Basel). “Miles...Hainricus domini Eberhardi filius dapiferi de Waltburc” donated property to Weissenau for his burial there, undated, the same document noting the donation made by “sorore...eius...Willibirgi”[1974]. Eberhard’s daughter donated property to Basel, where she was buried[1975]. The necrology of Weissenau commemorates 22 May “dapiferorum de Waltpurg: Hainrici, Friderici uterinorum fratrum, Eberhardi et uxoris eius Adelheidis et filiorum eius Ulrici, Friderici et Hainrici et Willibirgis et Fridrici et Ulrici et uxoris eorundem, Waltheri et Anne uxoris eius, Cunradi, Adelhaidis, Ottonis, Berchtoldi”[1976] , an entry which clearly does not commemorate the deaths on that date of all the persons named. [same person as...? daughter . This co-identity is suggested by the following document, in which all other donors and those giving consent were descended from Eberhard [I] Truchseß von Waldburg, suggesting that this was also the case with the Mindelburg family. “Bertoldus et Eberhardus de Rordorf et de Walpurch, imperialis aule dapiferi, Swiggerus senior et Swiggerus miles et Hainricus filii sui de Mindelberc" sold “molendinum in Birkidorf” to Kloster Salem, with the consent of “Adilhaidis relicte beate memorie Waltheri dapiferi de Warthusen, prout...tutores pupillorum Eberhardi et Waltheri fratrum de Warthusen...uxor...Adilhaidis...domini Bertoldi de Druhcpurch fiila domini Ulrici beate memorie dapiferi de Warthusen”, by charter dated 27 Feb 1277[1977]. m --- von Mindelburg, son of ---.]

a) EBERHARD von Tanne (-after 30 Jul 1205). “...Heinricus dapifer de Walpurch...Eberhardus de Tanne et Bertholdus frater eiusdem et Eberhardus ipsorum nepos similiter de Tanne...” witnessed the charter dated 30 Jul 1205 under which Philipp King of Germany confirmed an agreement between Konrad Bishop of Regensburg and Ludwig Duke of Bavaria[1986]. same person as...? EBERHARD von Winterstetten (-29 Oct ----). Vochezer identifies this Eberhard as “Eberhard von Winterstetten”[1987]. The necrology of Weissenau commemorates 29 Oct “Eberhardi de Winterstetten”[1988]. m [GUTA von Waldburg], daughter of HEINRICH [Truchseß von Waldburg] & his wife ---. Two documents are contradictory regarding the parentage of Eberhard’s wife. An undated charter records that “Heinrico de Walpurc dapifero regis Philippi” donated “predium suum in Hezmannesmittun” to Weissenau, which was claimed after his death by “alius liber Heinricus” who later died leaving “tres filie”, one married to “Eberhardi de Winterstetten”, the second to “Eberhardi de Fronhouen”, the third unmarried but “habuit advocatum Eberhardum de Walpurc”, all of whom redonated the property[1989]. On the other hand, the following document indicates that Eberhard’s widow was the daughter of Truchseß Heinrich not of the second Heinrich named in the previous document: “domina Guta de Wintersteten” donated property “in Egridach” to Weissenau, inherited from “patre suo Henrico dapifero de Walpurch” who died “cum maritus eius Heberhardus pincerna de Wintersteten, transmarinis partibus”[1990]. One possibility is that Eberhard married twice, Guta von Waldburg being his second wife. Another possibility is that the second Heinrich in the first document succeeded the first Heinrich as Truchseß von Waldburg.

b) [KONRAD von Winterstetten (-[21 Feb] after 1240). Vochezer names Konrad as brother of Eberhard von Winterstetten, adding that he was named in charters dated 1207, 1214, 1215, without citing the corresponding sources[1991]. Friedrich II King of Germany placed Kloster Tennebach under his protection by charter dated 12 Mar 1214, witnessed by "...Evirhardus pincerna de Tanna, Cunradus de Tanna"[1992]. “Eberhardus de Walpurc imperialis aulæ dapifer” confirmed the donation made to Kloster Kaisheim by “socrus sua Adelhaidis Augustensis præfectissa ex bonis suis in villa Zimbern” by charter dated to [1221], witnessed by “K--- de Walpurc...”[1993]. Truchseß von Waldburg: “Cuonradus dapifer de Waltpurc” witnessed the charter dated 10 Nov 1223 under which Heinrich VII King of Germany prohibited the building of castles near Kloster Waldsassen[1994]. “C. dapifer de Waltpurc” witnessed the charter of Heinrich VII King of Germany for Speier dated 29 Apr 1231[1995]. “C. dapifer de Waltpurc” witnessed the charter of Heinrich VII King of Germany dated 4 Jun 1233[1996]. “Dominus Cunradus pincerna de Wintersteten...et uxoris sue...Gute” donated property “in Wiarstobel” to Weissenau, undated[1997]. “Miles Cunradus de Wintersteten pincerna domini F. imperatoris et prefectus Sweuie...[et] domina Guta predicti C. pincerne...uxor” donated property to Weissenau by charter dated 1240[1998]. The necrology of Weissenau records 21 Feb “Cunradi pincerne de Winterstetten et Gute uxoris eius”[1999]. It is not known whether this entry represents the anniversary of the death of either. m GUTA, daughter of --- (-[21 Feb] ----). “Dominus Cunradus pincerna de Wintersteten...et uxoris sue...Gute” donated property “in Wiarstobel” to Weissenau, undated[2000]. “Miles Cunradus de Wintersteten pincerna domini F. imperatoris et prefectus Sweuie...[et] domina Guta predicti C. pincerne...uxor” donated property to Weissenau by charter dated 1240[2001]. The necrology of Weissenau records 21 Feb “Cunradi pincerne de Winterstetten et Gute uxoris eius”[2002]. It is not known whether this entry represents the anniversary of the death of either.]

4. FRIEDRICH von Tanne (-[killed Montefiascone 1197]). The Burchardi et Cuonradi Urspergensium Chronicon names “Fridericus...de Tanne frater dapiferi qui nunc est”, “nobilis ministerialis” of “Philippus frater imperatoris”, among those who accompanied Philipp on a campaign in Italy, dated to [1197/98][2003]. Vochezer states that Friedrich was killed at Montefiascone in 1197[2004].

5. HEINRICH von Tanne (-25 Aug 1248, bur Konstanz). Canon at Konstanz 1204. Provost at Konstanz. “Henricus prepositus cum fratre suo Peregrino..." witnessed the charter dated 13 Aug 1219 under which Konrad Bishop of Konstanz granted property to Kloster Salem[2005]. An undated charter records the intervention of “Ebirhardus de Walpurc dapifer regis et Heinricus frater eius Constantiensis ecclesie prepositus et eiusdem regis protonotarius” in a dispute involving a donation to Weissenau, witnessed by “Bilgerino fratre dapiferi canonico...”[2006]. “Heinrico protonothario imperialis aule...preposituram Augustensis et Constantiensis ecclesie, Peregrino fratre suo canonico...Cunrado canonico filio dapiferi de Walpurch...Eberhardus dampifer de Walpurch, Fridericus filius eius...” witnessed the charter dated 1226 relating to Bregenz church[2007]. Bishop of Konstanz 1233. Heinrich Bishop of Konstanz confirmed a donation to Kloster Salem by charter dated 27 Sep 1235, witnessed by “Bilgrino preposito Constantiense..."[2008].

Canon at Konstanz. “Waltherus de Vatcis [...cum filiis meis et filia] et Rudolfus fratres carnales" sold property to Kloster Salem by charter dated 1216, witnessed by “Bertholdo pincerna de Tanne et fratre suo Peregrino Constantiensi canonico...”[2009]. “Henricus prepositus cum fratre suo Peregrino..." witnessed the charter dated 13 Aug 1219 under which Konrad Bishop of Konstanz granted property to Kloster Salem[2010].

Provost at Konstanz 1233. Heinrich Bishop of Konstanz confirmed a donation to Kloster Salem by charter dated 27 Sep 1235, witnessed by “Bilgrino preposito Constantiense..."[2013].

The following persons are commemorated in the same entry in the necrology of Weissenau (22 May “dapiferorum de Waltpurg: Hainrici, Friderici uterinorum fratrum, Eberhardi et uxoris eius Adelheidis et filiorum eius Ulrici, Friderici et Hainrici et Willibirgis et Fridrici et Ulrici et uxoris eorundem, Waltheri et Anne uxoris eius, Cunradi, Adelhaidis, Ottonis, Berchtoldi”[2014]) which names other members of the Waldburg family. Their relationship with the main family has not been ascertained.

1. WALTER von Waldburg . m ANNA, daughter of ---.

2. KONRAD von Waldburg .

3. ADELHEID [von Waldburg] .

The following reconstructions are incomplete outlines only, added mainly to show hyperlinks to other families in Medieval Lands. The primary sources which confirm the family relationships have not been identified unless otherwise stated.

EBERHARD [II] von Waldburg, son of OTTO BERTHOLD Truchseß von Waldburg & his wife --- (-30 Dec 1291). Truchseß von Waldburg. “Eberhardus dapifer de Walpurch” witnessed a charter dated 24 Oct 1266 of Konradin King of Sicily for the dukes of Bavaria[2015]. “Bertoldus et Eberhardus dapiferi dicti de Walpurch” donated “dimidiam decimam in Pridrichingen” to Diessen, at the request of “avunculi nostri Seifridi de Algishusen” [not identified in the family], by charter dated 1271, sealed by “Bertoldus, quia Eberhardus patruus meus...sigillum proprium non habuit”[2016].

m ELISABETH von Montfort, daughter of RUDOLF [II] Graf von Montfort zu Feldkirch & his wife Anna von Grüningen (-after 13 Jun 1293). Vanotti records that one of the daughters of Graf Rudolf [II] married “Truchseß Eberhard von Waldburg”, but does not name the daughter[2017]. According to Vochezer, she married secondly Ulrich von Königsegg[2018]. He relies only on the following document which does not specify the origin of Ulrich’s wife: “Ulricus miles de Kunegsegge” donated property to Kloster Salem “in Hegheim”, which had been granted as Morgengabe to “der Ehefrau seines Sohnes Ulrich”, by charter dated 21 Apr 1294, sealed by “nobilis vir Anshelmus de Justingen und Johannes dapifer de Walpurch”[2019]. No other indication has been found of this second marriage, and it seems unlikely that a widow with an adult son (he sealed) would marry a youth whose father was still living. It appears more probable that Ulrich von Königsegg’s wife was Eberhard [II]’s daughter (see below).

Eberhard [II] & his wife had children:

1. JOHANN [I] von Waldburg (-[24 Dec 1338/10 Jan 1339], bur Kloster Isny). Truchseß von Waldburg. The necrology of Isny records 24 Mar Johann [I] “und seine Gemahlin Gräfin Clara”[2020]. m KLARA, daughter of ---. The necrology of Isny records 24 Mar Johann [I] “und seine Gemahlin Gräfin Clara”[2021]. Pappenheim’s 16th century Chronik names “Frau Clara Grauin von Neiffen” as the wife of Johann [I][2022]. If that information is correct, the chronology suggests that she would have been Klara von Neuffen, daughter of Albrecht von Neuffen Graf von Marstetten & his wife Elisabeth von Lechsgemünd. However, Vochezer highlights that this is the only source which which records the family origin of Johann’s wife and suggests that the information is unreliable[2023]. Johann [I] & his wife had children:

a) EBERHARD [III] von Waldburg (-[5 May 1361/14 Mar 1362]). Truchseß von Waldburg. Eberhard and his brother Otto witnessed a charter of Marquard von Schellenburg dated 23 Nov 1338[2024]. m (before 4 Jan 1345) AGNES von Teck, daughter of HERMANN [II] Herzog von Teck & his wife Willibirgis [von Tübingen] (-after 1359).

i) JOHANN [II] von Waldburg (-[22/31] Mar 1424). Truchseß von Waldburg.

ii) ANNA von Waldburg (-[1385/1406]). m RUDOLF Graf von Sulz, son of --- (-[6 Jan/23 Apr] 1406).

b) OTTO von Waldburg (-[12 Jul 1363/9 Apr 1365][2025]). Eberhard and his brother Otto witnessed a charter of Marquard von Schellenburg dated 23 Nov 1338[2026].

2. [ELISABETH von Waldburg . “Ulricus miles de Kunegsegge” donated property to Kloster Salem “in Hegheim”, which had been granted as Morgengabe to “der Ehefrau seines Sohnes Ulrich”, by charter dated 21 Apr 1294, sealed by “nobilis vir Anshelmus de Justingen und Johannes dapifer de Walpurch”[2027]. m ULRICH von Königsegg, son of ULRICH von Königsegg & his wife ---.]

m fourthly (before 4 Jul 1399) URSULA von Abensberg, daughter of ULRICH Graf von Abensberg & his wife Agnes von Liechtenstein-Murau (-30 Jan 1422).

Johann [II] & his third wife had children:

2. LUCKARD von Waldburg ). Her family origin and marriage are confirmed by the following document: “Schenk Eberhart der elter herre zu Erpach...Elizabeth sin...husfrauwe” granted “dem halben deile des Sloßes Habitzheim...” to “Luckarten geborn von Waltpurg, dez...Schenck Eberharts dez Jungen herren zu Erpach [...ir Sone]...husfrauwe” by charter dated 16 Oct 1407[2029]. The date of her first marriage suggests that Luckard was the daughter of Truchseß Johann [II] by his third marriage. “Luckart von Sulmendingen geborn von Waltpurg”, noting that “Schenke Eberhart der elter Herre zu Erpach myn...sweher” had granted her “dorffere...Rutschwilre und Kantzinbach” as dower, made commmitments with the consent of “Heinrich von Sulmendingen mynen...hußwirt” by charter dated 28 May 1416[2030]. m firstly (before 16 Oct 1407) EBERHARD von Erbach, son of EBERHARD [IX] Schenk von Erbach-Erbach & his wife Elisabeth von Cronberg (-before 1414). m secondly (before 28 May 1416) HEINRICH von Sulmendingen, son of ---.
