About Adalbert II, King of Italy
Adalberto II d'Ivrea Da Wikipedia, l'enciclopedia libera. http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adalberto_II_d'Ivrea

Adalberto da Gerberga ebbe cinque figli: 1) Ottone Guglielmo (962-1026), (primo conte palatino di Borgogna) 2) Gisella (?-1020), sposata nel 983 al marchese Anselmo I del Monferrato 3) Arduino (?-† 1015) 4) Gilberto (?-† 1030) 5) Amedeo (?-?) ---------- Adalbert (c. 932 – c. 975) was the king of Italy from 950 to 963. He was the son of the Margrave Berengar of Ivrea and Willa.
On 15 December 950, both he and his father were crowned kings of Italy after the death of Lothair II. His father tried to force Adelaide, widow of the late Lothair, to marry Adalbert and cement their claim to the kingship. When she refused and fled, she was tracked down and imprisoned for four months at Como.
In 951, King Otto I of Germany invaded Italy and rescued Adelaide, marrying her himself. He forced Berengar and Adalbert to do homage to him for their kingdom in 952. In 953, Adalbert began besieging Count Adalbert Azzo of Canossa, in his Canossan castle, where Adelaide had taken refuge two years prior. In 957, Liudolf, Duke of Swabia, invaded Lombardy and caused Berenagar to flee, though Adalbert gathered a large force at Verona. He was defeated, but Liudolf died prematurely and his army left.
In 960, he joined his father in attacking the pope, John XII. Otto came down at the pope's call and defeated the two co-kings and was crowned Emperor. Adalbert fled to Fraxinet, then under the Saracens. From there he fled to Corsica. When he returned, he tried to take Pavia, the Italian capital, but was defeated by another invading Swabian army, this time under Burchard III. Only the interference of his brothers Conrad and Guy, who died fighting, saved him to fight another day, which he never did. His negotiations with the Byzantine Empire fell through and he retired with his wife Gerberga to Burgundy, where he died at Autun sometime between 971 and 975. His widow married Otto-Henry, Duke of Burgundy, and his son, Otto-William, inherited through his stepfather the county of Burgundy and is thus the forefather of the Free Counts and the Hohenstaufen emperors. -------------------- The family of Adalbert d'ITALIE and Gerberge de MÂCON [133809] ITALIE (d'), Adalbert (Bérenger II & Willa d'ARLES [133836]), vice-roi d'Italie

Notes:

Otto-William (French: Otte-Guillaume; German: Otto Wilhelm; 955/62 – 21 September 1026 AD) was count of Mâcon, Nevers, and Burgundy.

Life
Otto was born in 958 during the joint reign of his grandfather, King Berengar II of Italy, and his father, King Adalbert.[1] His mother was Gerberga.[1]

After Adalbert's death in 971/5, Gerberga married for a second time, to Henry I, Duke of Burgundy, the younger brother of King Hugh Capet.[2] Gerberga and Henry had no children together. Since Henry had no legitimate son of his own, he adopted Otto-William making him a possible heir of the Duchy of Burgundy.[3]

While the son of a king, Otto did not seek a royal wife.[4] In c. 982, he married Ermentrude of Roucy, whose maternal grandmother, Gerberga of Saxony, was a sister of Otto I, Holy Roman Emperor, and by this marriage alliance created a web of consanguinity between later kings of France, Germany, Burgundy and the Carolingians.[4] Even Otto's children's spouses, although from great families, came from widespread and scattered parts of France.[4]

This marriage brought to Otto-William the County of Mâcon as well as[5] many other rights on the left bank of the Saône in the province of Besançon. The new Count of Mâcon consolidated there his political grip making what would be later be the Free County of Burgundy around Dole.

From his mother Otto could inherited the County of Nevers before 990.[6] However he left Nevers to his stepson Landric and rather claimed the County of Beaune in which the dowry of Gerberga was.

The Duchy of Burgundy was eventually annexed to the crown of France by King Robert II, nephew of Henry I, Duke of Burgundy, in 1005.

On the left-bank of the Saône, determined to be sovereign ruler of his own lands, Otto revolted against the Emperor Henry II in 1016. This was after Rudolph III of Burgundy, the last king of Burgundy and Arles, had done homage to Henry at Strasbourg, making him his guard and heir. On Otto's death, the Free County fell under the suzerainty of the German emperors.

Otto died on 21 September 1026 at the age of 64[7] and was buried in St-Benigne of Dijon.

Marriage and issue

Otto-William's first wife Ermentrude
Otto's first wife was Ermentrude, daughter of Renaud of Roucy.[8] They had:

Guy (c. 982–1006) had been associated as count of Mâcon from 995.[8] His wife is unknown.
Matilda, married Landri of Nevers, Count of Nevers[9]
Gerberga, married Guilhem II of Provence[10]
Reginald I, Count of Burgundy (c. 990–1057), he married Adelaide (or Judith) of Normandy.[8]
Agnes, married firstly William V of Aquitaine, secondly Geoffrey II of Anjou.[8]

Otto remarried late in life to a wife named Adelaide. Some scholars have identified her as the four-times widowed Adelaide-Blanche of Anjou,[11] but the identity is not directly attested[12] and has been disputed by some studying the question.[13]

Family/Spouse: de Roucy, Ermentrude. Ermentrude (daughter of de Roucy, Renaud II and de Lorraine, Countess Alberada) was born in 958 in Reims, Marne, Champagne-Ardenne, France; died on 5 Mar 1005 in Mâcon, Saône-et-Loire, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, France; was buried after 5 Mar 1003 in Milan, Milano, Lombardia, Italy.

1043: Henry III comes in Besancon, to become engaged to Agnes of Aquitaine , niece of Renaud I st of Burgundy, and daughter of the Duke of Aquitaine, William V Poitiers. On this occasion, the Archbishop of Besancon, Hugues I er de Salins, gets royal rights over the city of Besançon (legal, political, fiscal and economic).
