Medieval Lands by Charles Cawley, Foundation for Medieval Genealogy BERNARD, illegitimate son of PEPIN I King of Italy & his mistress ---([797]-Milan 17 Aug 818, bur Milan, San Ambrosio). Thegan's VitaHludowici Imperatoris names "Bernhardus filius Pippini exconcubina"[635]. Bernard is named only son of Pippin by Einhard[636].Regino names "Bernhardus filius Pippin rex Italiæ" when recording hisdeath in 818[637]. Settipani cites a litany of St Gallen which listsBernard among Carolingians of illegitimate birth[638]. He was broughtup at Kloster Fulda. His paternal grandfather sent him back to Italyin autumn 812, granting him the title "rex Langobardorum" in Apr 813.Einhard's Annales that "Walanem filium Bernhardi patruelis sui" wassent to Italy in 812 as guardian for "Bernhardum filium Pippin nepotemsuum [Karoli imperatoris]"[639]. He was confirmed 11 Sep 813 atAix-la-Chapelle as BERNARD I King of Italy, as vassal of the emperor,ruling under the regency of Adalhard abbé de Corbie[640]. Although heswore allegiance to his uncle Emperor Louis I "le Pieux" on thelatter's accession in 814, the emperor passed the Ordinatio Imperii inJul 817 which failed to mention Bernard's royal status, effectivelydepriving him of any role in government and of his royal title.Bernard rebelled unsuccessfully in Dec 817. He was tricked intoreturning to France to ask for the emperor's forgiveness atChalon-sur-Saône, but was taken to Aix-la-Chapelle where he wassentenced to death. The Annales Xantenses record that "Bernhardus rexLangobardorum" was blinded in 818[641]. Thegan's Vita HludowiciImperatoris records that "Bernhardus filius Pippini ex concubina" wasblinded and died on the third day which followed this[642]. After hisdeath, Italy was once more placed under the direct rule of theemperor[643]. m ([813]) CUNIGUNDIS, daughter of --- (-after 15 Jun 835). Settipanirefers to an act of the monastery of San Alessandro, Parma dated 15Jun 835 which names her[644]. The origin of Cunigundis is not known.Settipani suggests[645] that she was Cunigundis, daughter of Héribert,relative of St Guillaume Comte de Toulouse in order to explain thetransmission of the name Héribert into the family of Bernard King ofItaly. This is highly speculative. It would also mean that Héribertwas older than suggested in the document CAROLINGIAN NOBILITY, as itis unlikely that Cunigundis was born later than 800 assuming that thebirth date of her son is correctly estimated at [815]. King Bernard & his wife had one son: 1. PEPIN ([815]-after 850). Regino names "Pippinum" son of"Bernhardus filius Pippin rex Italiæ"[646]. Seigneur de Péronne et deSaint Quentin[647].
