Medieval Lands by Charles Cawley, Foundation for Medieval Genealogy WELF IV, son of ALBERTO AZZO II Conte di Luni [Este] & his first wifeKunigunde von Altdorf [Welf] ([1030/40]-Paphos Cyprus 9 Nov 1101, burCyprus, removed to Weingarten, near Lake Constance). The AnnalistaSaxo names "Welfum seniorum" son of "Azoni marchioni de Langobardia decastris Calun et Estin" (called "Welphus filius Azzonis marchionisItalorum" in an earlier passage[297]) and his wife "Cunizam"[298].After the death of his maternal uncle Welf III, he was summoned fromItaly by his maternal grandmother to inherit the Welf familyproperties in Swabia and Bavaria[299]. He was installed in 1070 asWELF I Duke of Bavaria by Heinrich IV King of Germany. Duke Welfsupported Rudolf von Rheinfelden, anti-king of Germany, and wasdeposed as Duke of Bavaria in 1077 by Heinrich IV. "Heinricus…rex"granted property of "Welfo dux dum erat dux…in pago Passir…in comitatuGerungi et in comitatu Friderici" to the church of Brixen by charterdated 1078[300]. "Dux Gewelfo eiusque…uxor Iudita" donated propertyto Kloster Weingarten, with the consent of "filiorum suorum Gwelfoniset Heinrici", dated 12 Mar 1094[301]. He sought to reassert hisposition in northern Italy against Emperor Heinrich IV by arranging,through Pope Urban II, the marriage of his son to the powerfullandowner Matilda Ctss of Tuscany. In 1095, Welf IV was reconciledwith the emperor, who regranted him the duchy of Bavaria[302]. Heundertook an expedition to Italy after the death of his father in 1097to assert his position in the inheritance over his half-brothers[303].Albert of Aix records that "Willelmus comes et princepsPictaviensium, de sanguine et origine Henrici tertii imperatorisRomanorum" crossed Hungary peacefully with "duce Bawariorum Welfoneet…comitssa…Ida de marchia Osterrich", entered the territory of theBulgars in which "duce Bulgarorum Guz" refused their passage intoAdrianople, but that Guillaume captured "ducem Bulgarorum" who wasforced to allow the pilgrims to continue, undated but in a passageadjacent to text which records events in 1101[304]. Albert of Aixrecords that, after their army was dispersed in Asia Minor by theTurks, Duke Welf eventually reached Jerusalem to complete hispilgrimage but died in Cyprus on the return journey[305]. Ekkehardrecords the death of Welf Duke of Bavaria and his burial inCyprus[306]. The necrology of Weingarten records the death "V Id Nov"of "Welf dux senior hic sepultus"[307], which suggests that his bodywas moved after its first burial in Cyprus. [m firstly ---. According to Jordan, the first wife of Duke Welf Iwas "the descendant of an unknown Italian line" but he cites noprimary source in support of the statement[308]. No other referenceto this alleged first marriage has been found.] m [firstly/secondly] (divorced 1070) as her first husband, ETHELINDEvon Northeim, daughter of OTTO I Graf von Northeim Duke of Bavaria &his wife Richenza of Swabia [Ezzonen]. The Annalista Saxo names"Heinricum Crassum comitem…Sifridum de Boumeneburh et Cononem comitemde Bichlinge et tres filias, ex quibus unam nomine Ethilindam acceptWelpho dux Bawarie et postquam eam repudiavit duxit eam Herimannuscomes de Calverla" as children of Otto von Northeim & his wife[309].Her husband repudiated her after the disgrace of her father, whomHeinrich IV King of Germany deprived of the duchy of Bavaria[310].She married secondly Hermann Graf von Calvelage. The AnnalesStadenses refers to the four daughters of Otto, specifying that"tertia fuit uxor Hermanni de Calvela, que genuit Ottonem et Heinricumcomites de Ravenesberch" without naming her[311]. m [secondly/thirdly] ([1071]) as her second husband, JUDITH deFlandre, widow of TOSTIG Godwinson Earl of Northumbria, daughter ofBAUDOUIN IV Count of Flanders & his second wife [Eléonore] deNormandie ([1033]-[5] Mar 1094, bur St Martin Monastery). TheAnnalista Saxo names "Iudhita…amita Rodberti comitis de Flandria excognatione beati Ethmundi regis" as husband of "Haroldi" (in error forTostig) but correctly names her second husband "Welphus filius Azzonismarchionis Italorum"[312]. The Genealogia Welforum names "filiamcomitis Flandrie, reginam Anglie, Iuditam nomine" as wife ofWelf[313]. Florence of Worcester says that Judith was "daughter ofBaldwin Count of Flanders" but does not specify which Count Baldwinnor is this clear from the context[314]. According to the VitaÆdwardi Regis, she was the sister of Count Baudouin V[315]. Albericde Trois Fontaines asserts that Judith was one of the children ofBaudouin V Count of Flanders & his wife Adela de France[316], butthere are other clear errors in his listing of this couple's childrenso the statement should be viewed with caution. Judith is also listedas the daughter of Count Baudouin V (after Mathilde) in a manuscriptwhose attribution to Orderic Vitalis is disputed, which also shows herfirst marriage[317]. The date of her first marriage is confirmed bythe Anglo-Saxon Chronicle which records that "earl Godwine" fled afterthe Council of 9 Sep 1051 "with Tostig and his wife who was akinswoman of Baldwin of Bruges"[318]. Judith moved to Denmark afterher first husband was killed. "Dux Gewelfo eiusque…uxor Iudita"donated property to Kloster Weingarten, with the consent of "filiorumsuorum Gwelfonis et Heinrici", dated 12 Mar 1094[319]. The Chroniconof Bernold records the death "1094 IV Non Mar" of "Iuditha uxor ducisWelfonis Baioariæ" and her burial "apud monasterium…Sancti Martini"built by her husband[320]. The necrology of Raitenbuch records thedeath "III Non Mar" of "Iudinta regina Anglie, filia marchionis deEste uxor Welfonis nostri fundatoris"[321], exaggerating her statusresulting from her first marriage and confusing her paternity. Thenecrology of Weingarten records the death "III Non Mar" of "Judita duxregina Anglie"[322], also exaggerating her status resulting from herfirst marriage. Duke Welf & his [second/third] wife had two children: 1. WELF [V] ([1073]-Burg Kaufering 24 Sep 1120, burWeingarten). The Annalista Saxo names "dux Welpho, ducis BawarieWelphonis filius" as husband of "Machtildis filia Beatricis exBonifacio marchione de Langobardia". A later passage names his motherand specifies that he was the older son and died childless[323]. Hebore the title "dux et marchese" in a 27 Jun 1090 document at Mantuain which he is named before his wife[324]. "Dux Gewelfo eiusque…uxorIudita" donated property to Kloster Weingarten, with the consent of"filiorum suorum Gwelfonis et Heinrici", dated 12 Mar 1094[325]. Hereturned to Bavaria after separating from his wife in 1095[326]. Hesucceeded his father in 1101 in his Bavarian and Swabian estates, andwas appointed as WELF II Duke of Bavaria by Emperor Heinrich IV. Hewas a strong supporter of Emperor Heinrich V, accompanying him on manyexpeditions to Italy[327]. The necrology of Weingarten records thedeath "VIII Kal Oct" of "Welf Pinguis dux hic sepultus"[328]. m (insecret mid-1089, separated summer 1095[329]) as her second husband,MATILDA Signora di Canossa Ctss of Tuscany, widow of GODEFROI III "leBossu" Duke of Lower Lotharingia, daughter and heiress of BONIFAZIOMarchese of Tuscany, Signor di Canossa & his second wife Beatrix ofUpper Lotharingia ([Mantua] 1046-Bondeno de' Roncovi 24 Jul 1115, burMonastery of San Benedetto di Polirone, transferred 1633 to St Peter'sRome). The Annalista Saxo names "Machtildis filia Beatricis exBonifacio marchione de Langobardia" as husband of "dux Welpho, ducisBawarie Welphonis filius"[330]. The Chronicon of Bernold records themarriage in 1089 of "dux Mathildis filia Bonifacii marchionis, sedvidua Gotefridi ducis" and "Welfoni duci filio Welfonis ducis"[331].The Annales Cremonenses record the death in 1115 of "comitissaMatildis"[332]. The Cronica of Sicardi Bishop of Cremona records thedeath in 1115 of "comitissa Matildis" and her burial "aput ecclesiamsancti Benedicti inter Padum et Lironem quam Teutaldus avusconstruxerat et Bonifacius pater eius ampliaverat"[333]. 2. HEINRICH ([1074]-Ravensburg 13 Dec 1126, bur Weingarten).The Annalista Saxo records the death in 1126 of "Heinricus duxBawarie…filius Welphonis ducis…[et] Iudhitam"[334].
