Subject: Re: Boso again

"The family of Waldrada the concubine of king Lothar II (his wife was

Teutberga) is not known, though there has been speculation. Two family

groups touted as candidates are the "Etichonids" and "Welfs". There may

well be others.

Lothar II's wife was the daughter of a count Boso and (from memory)

was sister sister of another Boso and the famous abbot Hugobert and

sister-in-law to count Bivin. A rather nasty row broke out in the Court

and the Church when Lothar II tried to repudiate Teutberga (by whom he

had no children) and marry Waldrada so that his children by her could be

legitimated and become his heirs in Lotharingia. Lothar II's bishops

agreed with the move but the Pope didn't."
