Lambert Of Chalon
Lambert of Chalon (French: ''Lambert de Chalon''; before 930 - 22 February 978) was the count of Chalon from 956 to 978, and viscount of Autun. He was the son of Robert of Dijon and Ingeltrude, and the brother to Robert, viscount of Chalon and to Rudolf, viscount of Dijon. Before 960, he married Adelaide of Vienne, a daughter of count Hugh of Vienne and probably a widow of a Wilhelmid count. Their children included: * Hugh, count of Chalon and bishop of Auxerre * Mathilda, married Geoffrey of Semur. There is still debate about the precise kinship of Gerberga, who was married to Adalbert of Italy and to Henry I, Duke of Burgundy. In the scenario where she is born from a previous marriage of Adelaide, Lambert would only be her ''step-father''. Lambert died in 978, was interred at Paray-le-Monial Paray-le-Monial is a commune in the Saône-et-Loire department in the region of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in eastern France.

Hugh Of Chalon (bishop Of Auxerre)
Hugh of Chalon (French: ''Hugues de Chalon''; c. 975 – 4 November 1039) was a member of the House of Chalon. He was Count of Chalon and Bishop of Auxerre. Life Hugh was the only son of Lambert of Chalon and his wife Adela (Adelais, Adelaide), and was made a canon of the Cathédrale Saint-Nazaire in Autun. Upon the death of his father in 978, Hugh became Count of Chalon. Hugh's sister or rather half-sister Gerberga was married to Henry I, Duke of Burgundy. In 999, at the request of Duke Henry, Hugh was named Bishop of Auxerre. The Benedictine house at Paray-le-Monial had been founded in 973 by Hugh's parents. By 999 it was in need of reform, and Count Hugh gave it to Cluny as a priory. The large crypt of the Cathédrale Saint-Étienne d'Auxerre was built between 1023 and 1030, when he rebuilt the earlier Romanesque structure. The crypt was immense, with three naves and six traverses. It also featured a new architectural element, a disambulatory, a passage which permitt ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Ancient Diocese Of Auxerre
The diocese of Auxerre ( la, dioecesis Antissiodorensis) is a former French Roman Catholic diocese. Its historical episcopal see was in the city of Auxerre in Burgundy, now part of eastern France. Currently the non-metropolitan Archbishop of Sens, ordinary of the diocese of Sens and Auxerre, resides in Auxerre. Ecclesiastical history The ''Gesta pontificum Autissiodorensium'', written about 875 by the canons Rainogala and Alagus, and later continued up to 1278, gives a list of bishops of Auxerre. Louis Duchesne regards the list as mostly accurate, but very arbitrary in its dates prior to the 7th century. Auxerre is remarkable among French churches for the number of its bishops who have come to be regarded as saints. Bishops of the original ''Gesta'' St. Peregrinus (Pélérin 'pilgrim') was the founder of the See of Auxerre; according to the legend, he was sent by Pope Sixtus II and was martyred under Emperor Diocletian in 303 or 304. After Peregrine, the original 870s ''Gesta ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Gerberga, Mother Of Otto-William
Gerberga, Otto-William's mother (c. 947 – 986/91), was, by her successive marriages, queen of Italy (c. 958 – 963), margravine of Ivrea (965–970), and duchess of Burgundy (971/5–986/91). Ancestry There has been some debate about Gerberga's ancestry. Recent scholars think that Gerberga's parents were Lambert of Chalon and Adelaide. Because Gerberga's son, Otto-William, later succeeded to the county of Mâcon (through marriage to Ermentrude de Roucy, the widow of the previous count), old assumptions had mistakenly argued that Gerberga must have been descended from the counts of Mâcon rather than from Lambert of Chalon or Adelaide. Besides, a primary source, the ''Gesta pontificum'' of Auxerre confirm that is Hugh of Chalon (bishop of Auxerre) is a ''frater'' (brother) of Gerberga. Remaining debate is about the meaning of the latter word—half-brother or full brother. The scenario where Adelaide is the common mother may explain that on the death without direct heirs in 10 ...
