  Notes	[large-G675.FTW] Stammtafeln says she is the daughter of Henry, Margrave of Mark (d 886). Current consensus (as summarised by E.Hlawitschka, in Rheinische Vierteljarhrblatter, 1974, p141ff) is that she was a daughter of Margrave Henry who died at paris against the Normans 28.8.886 (he also often appears with other titles: Duke of the Austrasians, is one of them). Her mother was according to the same author) was probably a grand-daughter of St.Ida (d.c.820) and the Saxon Count Egbert (flor. 809-11). I can only refer back to the same article: there was a family in Saxony at this time who historians call the Egbertiner or Cobbonen after their most distinguished members. The details about Ida and Egbert's family come from two sources: her Life (written 980/3) and the Translatio S.Pusinnae (c.860/77). St.Ida was the founder of Herford, a convent in Saxony. Her Life calls Egbert duke of all saxony between the Rhine and the weser appointed by Charlemagne. A count Egbert appears in the Royal frankish annals in 809 and 811 concerned with the boundary between Saxony and the Denmark. Their children included Warin abbot of Corvey 826-56, and Count Cobbo the Elder (d. fl 845), and Addila abbess of Herford. This family continued to be important in Saxony in the 10th century. Ida is said to be the daughter of a Frankish count (though Hlawitschka tries to make her a daughter of Carloman I d.771, wrongly I think). As Egbert of Wessex became king in 802 (?), it would seem unlikely that he could have two different careers in two different countries, at the same time. Unless the ASC date 802 is wrong. Matt PS: the Egbertiner are also mentioned in an article in English (about the revolt of the Stellinga in Saxony c.840-43), in Speculum 70, 1995, p488. Speculum is an American journal on Medieval History. Dutch "Winkler Prins" encyclopedia says Henry was via his mother a grandson of Louis the German (who was a grandson of Charlemagne). The sources of this article are: - Jahrb¸cher des deutschen Reichs unter Kˆnig Heinrich, by G. Waitz (1885, 1963) - Kˆnig Heinrich I, by Fr. L¸dtke (1936) - Geschichte der s‰chsischen Kaiserzeit, by R. Holzmann (1941, 1953) - Kˆnig Heinrich I, by W. Mohr (1950) - Von den Karolingern zu den Staufern, by J. Haller (1958) - Die Mark Brandenburg, by J. Schultze (1961) - Heinrich I, S¸dwest- und Westpolitik, by H. B¸ttner (1964) "Von den Karolingern zu den Staufern" is the source of the genealogical information in the article.
