    Notes:

    Lothar I, also spelled Lothair, (born 795? died Sept. 29, 855, Abbey of Pr?m, Ger.), Frankish emperor, whose attempt to gain sole rule over the Frankish territories was checked by his brothers.

    The eldest son of the emperor Louis I the Pious and a grandson of Charlemagne, Lothar was made king in Bavaria after Louis succeeded Charlemagne in 814, and in 817 he was made joint emperor. Under the Ordinatio imperii, a decree issued by Louis in 817 to provide for the unity of the empire after his death, Lothar's younger brothers, Pippin and Louis (later called the German), were to receive their own kingdoms, Aquitaine and Bavaria, but were to remain under the general suzerainty of Lothar.

    Ruler in Italy from 822, Lothar was crowned emperor by Pope Paschal I in 823. He issued the Constitutio Romana (824), affirming imperial sovereignty over Rome and demanding an oath of fealty from the pope. When in 829 Louis I, under the influence of his second wife, Judith, revised the Ordinatio imperii to grant part of the empire previously granted to Lothar to his son by Judith, Charles (later called the Bald), Lothar broke with the imperial government. A palace revolution forced his reappointment as coemperor in 830, but he was again deposed shortly afterward.

    In 833 discontent with the rule of Louis I the Pious ended in a revolt of the three elder sons, led by Lothar, and Lothar replaced the deposed Louis. Louis was restored to power the following year, however, and Lothar's rule was restricted to Italy.

    When Pippin died in December 838, Louis I drew up a new partition scheme, dividing the empire, aside from Bavaria and neighbouring areas, which were left to Louis the German, between Lothar and Charles II the Bald, with Lothar taking the eastern portion. Lothar was to have the title of emperor but without the suzerainty over the other princes that had been granted by the Ordinatio imperii of 817.

    On Louis I's death (840), Lothar again claimed his rights under the Ordinatio of 817, but his brothers, Louis and Charles, defeated him at the Battle of Fontenoy (841). The Treaty of Verdun (August 843) left Lothar the Middle Realm of the Frankish dominions, from the North Sea to Italy, while Louis received the eastern and Charles the western territory. The imperial title fell to Lothar.

    After granting the government of Italy to his eldest son, Louis II, as early as 844, Lothar partitioned his realm between Louis (emperor from 850) and his two other sons, Lothar and Charles, in 855. Then he abdicated and became a monk.

    Lothair married Ermengarde, Countess Of Tours on 15 Oct 821 in Thionville, Moselle, France. Ermengarde (daughter of Hugues II, Count Of Upper Alsace and Ava, Countess Of Upper Alsace) was born about 800 in Of Alsace, France; died on 20 Mar 851 in Strasbourg, Alsace, France; was buried in Abbaye D'erstein, Strasbourg, Alsace, France.

    Notes:

    Robert was born in 866 as the posthumous son of Robert the Strong, count of Anjou, and the brother of Odo, who was elected king of West Francia in 888. In time West Francia evolved into the Kingdom of France; and under Odo, the royal capital was fixed in Paris. Robert and Odo came from the Robertian dynasty out of which the Capetian dynasty grew.

    In 885 Robert participated in the defence of Paris during the Viking siege of Paris. He was appointed by Odo as the ruler of several counties, including the county of Paris, and abbot in commendam of many abbeys. Robert also secured the office of Dux Francorum, a military dignity of high importance.

    He did not claim the crown of West Francia when his brother died in 898; instead recognizing the supremacy of the Carolingian king, Charles the Simple. Charles then confirmed Robert in his offices and possessions, after which he continued to defend northern Francia from the attacks of Vikings. Robert defeated a large band of Vikings in the Loire Valley in 921, after which the defeated invaders converted to Christianity and settled near Nantes.

    The peace between King Charles the Simple and his powerful vassal was not seriously disturbed until about 921 when Charles' favoritism towards Hagano aroused rebellion. Supported by many of the clergy and by some of the most powerful of the Frankish nobles, Robert took up arms, drove Charles into Lotharingia, and was himself crowned king of the Franks (rex Francorum) at Rheims on 29 June 922.

    Robert's rule was contested by the Viking leader Rollo, who had settled in the Duchy of Normandy in 911 with the permission of Charles the Simple. During Robert's reign, Rollo remained loyal to Charles, who continued to contest his deposition. Gathering an army, Charles marched against Robert, and on 15 June 923 at the Battle of Soissons Robert was killed. However, his army won the battle and Charles was captured. Charles remained a captive until his death in 929. Robert was succeeded as king by his son-in-law Rudolph, Count of Burgundy, also known as Raoul

    Robert married Beatrice DE VERMANDOIS in 890. Beatrice (daughter of Herbert I, Count Of Vermandois and Miss, Princess Of France) was born about 880 in Of Vermandois, Normandy, France; died in Mar 931. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
