Medieval Lands by Charles Cawley, Foundation for Medieval Genealogy a) [ARNOLD . The Liber Historiæ Francorum names "Arnoldum" asthe son of "Ansbertus" & his wife[367]. The Carmen de Exordio GentisFrancorum names (in order) "Arnoldumprimogenitum…Feriolum…Modericus…Tharsicia" as the four children of"Ansbertus" & his wife[368]. A 9th century genealogy names"primogenitus Arnoaldus…" as oldest son of Ansbert & his wife[369].] i) [ARNOUL ([580/85]-Remiremont 18 Jul [640], bur Remiremont,later transferred to Metz, basilique de Saint-Arnoul). A 9th centurygenealogy names "beatum Arnulfum episcopum" as the son of Arnold, andArnulf's sons "Flodulfum, Wallchisum et Anchisum"[370]. Settipanipoints out that this formed part of a series of genealogies compiledat Metz, from the late 8th century onwards, to glorify the ancestry ofthe Carolingian dynasty by establishing their descent from the earlyMerovingians and also from a family of Roman senatorial origin[371].The earlier Vita Sancti Arnulfi names "Arnulfus episcopus prosapiagenitus Francorum" but gives no further details of his ancestry[372].Another genealogy from the same period does not attempt to traceArnoul's ancestors further than naming "Buotgisus" as father of"Arnulfum…episcopum urbis Metensium", although the editor of theMonumenta Germaniæ in which this is published cites another sourcewhich names "Burtgisus, qui a multis cognominatur Arnoaldus" althoughthe dating of the latter is unclear[373].] [368] Carmen de Exordio Gentis Francorum, MGH Poetæ Latini æviCarolini II, p. 143.
