Medieval Lands by Charles Cawley, Foundation for Medieval Genealogy ARNOUL [Arnulf], son of [ARNOLD & his wife ---] ([580/85]-Remiremont18 Jul [640], bur Remiremont, later transferred to Metz, basilique deSaint-Arnoul). The origins of Arnulf are unknown. The Vita SanctiArnulfi names "Arnulfus episcopus prosapia genitus Francorum" butgives no further details of his ancestry[42]. The Gesta EpiscoporumMettensis names "Arnulfus…ex nobilissimo fortissimoque Francorumstemmate ortus", with no further information on his parentage, asninth bishop of Metz and "palatii moderator"[43]. A 9th centurygenealogy names "beatum Arnulfum episcopum" as the son of Arnold[44].Settipani points out that this genealogy forms part of a seriescompiled at Metz, from the late 8th century onwards, which glorify theancestry of the Carolingian dynasty by establishing descent from theearly Merovingians as well as from a family of Roman senatorialorigin[45]. Further confusion is added by the Gesta EpiscoporumMettensis which names "Agiulfus" as sixth bishop of Metz, stating that"patre ex nobili senatorum familia orto, ex Chlodovei regis Francorumfilia procreatus", and that "nepos ipsius…Arnoaldus" succeeded him asbishop[46], the alleged senatorial and Merovingian ancestry appearingto provide the basis for the 9th century genealogy although the latterassigns the descent to what appears to be a different Arnold. TheGesta Episcoporum Mettensis makes no family connection between Arnulfand his predecessor bishops. Another genealogy from the 8th/9thcentury names "Buotgisus" as father of "Arnulfum…episcopum urbisMetensium", although the editor of the Monumenta Germaniæ in whichthis is published cites another source which names "Burtgisus, qui amultis cognominatur Arnoaldus" although the dating of the latter isunclear[47]. Arnulf entered the service of Theodebert King ofAustrasia, becoming intendant of the royal domains. Together withWarnachar, maior domus of the palace of Burgundy, he helped KingClotaire II defeat King Sigebert II and the latter's great-grandmotherQueen Brunechildis in 613[48]. Sigeberto's Vita Landiberto episcopiTraiectensis names "Pippinus…principes Francorum…paterni avi eiusArnulfi", specifying that he was "primo maior domus regis postMettensis episcopus"[49], although no other document has been foundwhich indicates that Arnulf held the position of maior domus inAustrasia. Elected Bishop of Metz in [613], Arnulf retired to themonastery of Remiremont, Vosges in 629. A charter dated 20 Feb 691 of"Pippinus filius Ansegisili quondam necnon…matrone mea Plectrudis"donating property to the church of St Arnulf at Metz specifies that"domnus et avus noster Arnulphus" was buried in the church[50]. Alist of bishops of Metz records "Arnulfus" as 29th bishop, that heheld the position for 10 years, and died "XVII Kal Sep"[51]. m [DODA], daughter of ---. The 11th century life of her son Chlodulfnames “mater…Chlodulfi Doda”[52]. Settipani states that this is theonly source which names Arnulf´s wife, and inevitably casts doubt onthe accuracy of the source written several centuries after shelived[53]. Arnulf & his wife had [three] children: 1. CHLODULF ([610]-8 May [697], bur Metz, basilique deSaint-Arnoul). The Gesta Episcoporum Mettensis names (in order) "duosfilios Anschisum et Chlodolfum" as sons of Arnulf "iuventutis suætempore ex legitimi matrimonii copula" but does not name theirmother[54]. The Vita Chrodegangi Episcopi Mettensis names"primogenitus…Clodulfus" as one of the two sons of "Arnulfumsanctum"[55]. The Annales Xantenses names "Clodulfus" as son of"Arnulfus" when recording that he became bishop after his fatherdied[56]. “…necnon et domesticorum Flodulfi, Ansigisili, Bettelini,Gariberti” consented to a donation to the monastery of Stabulo andMalmédy by King Sigebert III in a charter dated to [648][57]."Childericus rex Francorum, Emnehildis et Bilihildis…reginæ…Gundoinoduce et Hodone domestico" confirmed the property of the monastery ofStablo and Malmedy on the advice of "Grimoaldo, Fulcoaldo, Adregisilo,Bobone ducibus, Chlodulfo, Ansegisilo, Gariberto domesticis" bycharter dated 6 Sep 667[58], although the presence of "Grimoaldo" inthe document ten years after the attested death of the only known DukeGrimoald suggests that the document may have been subject to somealteration. He was elected Bishop of Metz in 657. Sigeberto's VitaLandiberto episcopi Traiectensis names "Pippinus…principesFrancorum…Clodulfi Mettensis episcopi…patruus ipsius"[59]. A list ofbishops of Metz records "Chlodulfus" as 32nd bishop, holding theposition for 40 years and 20 days, and his death "VIII Id Mai"[60]. m[CHILDA [Hilda], daughter of ---. According to the tradition of Los,the body of St Amour was conferred to "Hilda, femme du nobleClodolfus"[61]. No other reference to the name of Chlodulf's wife hasbeen found.] Chlodulf & his wife had [two] children: a) [AUNULF (-before 16 Dec 714). He is named only in acharter of Emperor Otto I dated 30 Apr 948, confirming the donation tothe church of Metz of property at Russon near Tongres which previouslybelonged to "Clodulfus … filio suo Aunulfo", and which the latterbequeathed to Pépin on dying[62].] b) [MARTIN . A 9th century genealogy names "Martinum" as theson of "Flodulfus", son of "beatus Arnulfum", specifying that hekilled Ebroin at "Ercriaco palatio" and was later elected abishop[63]. A charter dated 15 May 653, classified as spurious in thecollection, of "Sigisbertus…Francorum rex" purports to record hisdonation to the monastery "sancti Matthiæ in prædio sancti PetriTrevericæ" and names "consanguinei nostri domini Martini filiiClodulphi filii Arnulphi ducis, ducis Austriæ Mosellanicæ acMoselant", who is also named among the subscribers of thedocument[64].] 2. ANSEGISEL ([612]-killed [662]). The Gesta EpiscoporumMettensis names (in order) "duos filios Anschisum et Chlodolfum" assons of Arnulf "iuventutis suæ tempore ex legitimi matrimonii copula"but does not name their mother[65]. The Vita Chrodegangi EpiscopiMettensis; names "Anchisæ" as second son of "Arnulfum sanctum"[66].“…necnon et domesticorum Flodulfi, Ansigisili, Bettelini, Gariberti”consented to a donation to the monastery of Stabulo and Malmédy byKing Sigebert III in a charter dated to [648][67]. "Childericus rexFrancorum, Emnehildis et Bilihildis…reginæ…Gundoino duce et Hodonedomestico" confirmed the property of the monastery of Stablo andMalmedy on the advice of "Grimoaldo, Fulcoaldo, Adregisilo, Boboneducibus, Chlodulfo, Ansegisilo, Gariberto domesticis" by charter dated6 Sep 667[68], although the presence of "Grimoaldo" in the documentten years after the attested death of the only known Duke Grimoaldsuggests that the document may have been subject to some alteration.He was killed by a nobleman Gundoen[69]. m ([643/44]) BEGGA, daughterof PEPIN [I] "l'Ancien" or "de Landen", maior domus of King ClotaireII & his wife Itta --- (-693). The Cronica Hohenburgensis names"huius soror [beata Gerdrudis] Begga" as wife of "Angiso sanctiArnulfi filio"[70]. Sigeberto's Vita Landiberto episcopi Traiectensisnames "Pippinus…principes Francorum…sanctæ Beggæ matris eius"[71].She founded the Abbey of Andenne, near Namur, 691 with nuns from theAbbey of Nivelle. The Annales Xantenses record the death in 698 of"Sancta Begga mater Pippini ducis"[72]. Ansegisel & his wife had[two] children: a) PEPIN [II] "le Gros" or "d'Herstal" ([645]-Jupille, nearLiège 16 Dec 714, bur Metz, basilique de Saint-Arnoul). The GestaEpiscoporum Mettensis names "Anschisus" as father of "Pippinum"[73]."Pippinus filius Ansegisili quondam necnon…matrone mea Plectrudis"donated property to the church of St Arnulf at Metz by charter dated20 Feb 691[74]. He defeated his adversaries at Tertry, Somme in Jun687 before becoming maior domus of Austrasia in [688/90]. - see below. b) [CHROTHECHILDIS [Rotilde] [Doda] (-692 or after).Settipani approves the theory of Maurice Chaume according to which thewife of King Theoderic III was the daughter of Ansegisel[75].However, this does not appear to be directly supported by primarysource evidence. "Theudericus rex Francorum" donated property at therequest of "regine nostre Chrodochilde…et…Berchario maiorem domosnostre" to the abbey of St Denis by charter dated 30 Oct 688[76]."Chrotechildis regina" is named mother of King Clovis III in theCartulaire of Saint-Bertin[77]. She was regent for her son KingChlodovech III until 692. The epitaph of King Theoderic III and hiswife bore the inscription "rex Theodericus…cum coniuge Doda", assumedto be another name by which Rotilde was known[78]. m THEODERIC IIIKing of the Franks in Neustria, son of CLOVIS II King of the Franks inNeustria & his wife Bathildis --- ([651]-[2 Sep 690/12 Apr 691], burArras, basilique Saint-Vaast).] 3. [WALACHO [Walchisus] . The Domus Carolingiæ Genealogianames (in order) "Flodulfum, Walchisum et Anschisum" as sons of"Arnulfum episcopum", specifying that Walchisus was father of"Wandregisilum confessorem Domini"[79]. The Vita S. Wandregisilirecords that “Walchisus” was “consobrinus…Pippini…PrincipisFrancorum”[80]. Monlezun suggests that Walacho and Walchisus were thesame person. The primary source which confirms that this is correcthas not yet been identified. In any case, the chronology appears tobe too extended, particularly in light of the death of his supposedson-in-law Eudes Duke of Aquitaine, for Walacho to have been the sonof Arnoul. Until further information comes to light, this connectionshould be viewed with caution.] m ---. The name ofWalacho/Walchisus´s wife is not known. Walacho/Walchisus & his wifehad [two] children: a) WANDREGISEL (-21 Apr 665). The Vita S. Wandregisili names“Walchisus…consobrinus…Pippini…Principis Francorum” as father of“Wandregisilus cognomento Wando”[81]. The Gesta AbbatumFontanellensium names "Wandregisilus" as the first abbot of Fontanelleand in a later passage specifies that he was son of "Walchisus…patruusPippini ducis Francorum filii Anchisi"[82]. The Vita Ansberti names"princeps Pipinus Ansegisili filius" as "consobrinus…beati patrisWandragisili"[83]. The Annales Xantenses record the death in 665 of"Sanctus Wandregisilus"[84]. The Vita S. Wandregisili records thedeath “menso quarto, die primo et vicesimo…annus…665” aged 96 of“Beatus Wandregisilus”[85], although her age must be considerablyexaggerated if her parentage is correctly shown here. b) [WALTRUDE . The charter of Charles II "le Chauve" King ofthe West Franks dated 30 Jan 845 (possibly spurious, as explained inthe document AQUITAINE DUKES) names "Valtruda, Valchigisi ducis denostra progenie filia" as wife of "Eudo Aquitanie dux"[86]. m EUDESDuke of Aquitaine, son of [BOGGIS Duke of Aquitaine & his wife Oda---] (-[735]).] [42] Vita Sancti Arnulfi 1, MGH SS rer.
