Welf (father of Judith)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welf or Hwelf also known as Welf I, was the son of the 9th century Frankish count Rothard of Metz. He is the oldest known member of the Elder House of Welf. Welf is mentioned only once: on the occasion of the wedding of his daughter Judith with Emperor Louis the Pious in 819.

[edit] Marriage and issue
Welf married Hedwig, Duchess of bavaria, daughter of the Saxon count Isanbart; Hedwig was abbess of Chelles. They had the following:

Judith, Roman Empress and Frankish Queen, died 843;
Rudolf, died 866;
Conrad, Count of Paris, ancestor of the Welf kings of Burgundy;
Hemma, Frankish Queen, died 876.

[edit] References
FMG on Welf, the Margrave of Swabia
---------------------------------------------------
Welf I. was the founder of the Swabian, or south German, line of the Elder House of Welf. The Welfs were originally descended from Frankish nobility, landowners in Alsace and in Lorraine. In the Historia Welforum, in which this famous Welf family tree is also recorded, an absolute boast was made: "They are descended from those Franks who once migrated from Troy." The Welfs were able to develop a single dynastic house in Swabia between Bodensee and the river Lech, where their main castle of Altorf (Weingarten) was situated, after which they were also named. The social and political ascent of the Welfs in the Empire had already begun a generation before Welf I. His aunts Judith and Hemma married, respectively, the Frankish Emperor Ludwig I. the Pious (d. 840) and Ludwig the German (d. 876), and with these marriages began the social and political ascent of the Welfs in the Empire. These royal connections turned the Welfs into the most influential family in southern Germany.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The elder House of Welf was a dynasty of European rulers in the 9th through 11th centuries. It consisted of two groups, a Burgundian group and a Swabian group. It is disputed whether the two groups formed one dynasty or whether they shared the same name by coincidence only.

The older of the two groups was the Burgundian group. Its oldest known member was Welf, who was mentioned in 819 as father of Judith (not to be confused with Welf I of the Swabian group). His great-grandson Rudolph became king of Burgundy in 888. The last member of the Burgundian group was King Rudolph III of Burgundy, who died childless in 1032.

The oldest known member of the Swabian group was Welf I, a count in Swabia who was first mentioned in 842. According to legend, Welf I was a son of Conrad, son of Welf, the ancestor of the Burgundian group. This relationship is considered probable because both Conrad and Welf I were counts of Linzgau and Alpgau. The relationship between Welf I and all later members of the Swabian group (Welf III and his relatives) is, again, known only through legend. The elder House of Welf became extinct when Welf III, Duke of Carinthia, died childless in 1055. The property of the House of Welf was inherited by a branch of the House of Este that came to be known as the younger House of Welf.

Louis, The German
URL: http://55.1911encyclopedia.org/L/LO/LOUIS_THE_GERMAN.htm

LOUIS (804-876) surnamed the " German," king of the East Franks, was the third son of the emperor Louis I. and his wife Irmengarde. His early years were partly spent at the court of his grandfather Charlemagne, whose special affection he is said to have won. When the emperor Louis divided his dominions between his sons in 817, Louis received Bavaria and the neighboring lands, but did not undertake the government until 825, when he became involved in war with the Slavonic tribes on his eastern frontier. In 827 he married Emma, daughter of Welf I., count of Bavaria, and sister of his stepmother Judith; and he soon began to interfere in the quarrels arising from Judith's efforts to secure a kingdom for her own son Charles, and the consequent struggles of Louis and his brothers with the emperor Louis I. (q.v.). When the elder Louis died in 840 and his eldest son Lothair claimed the whole Empire, Louis in alliance with his half-brother, king Charles the Bald, defeated Lothair at Fontenoy on the 2$th of June 841. In June 842 the three brothers met on an island in the Saone to negotiate a peace, and each appointed forty representatives to arrange the boundaries of their respective kingdoms. This developed into the treaty of Verdun concluded in August 843, by which Louis received the bulk of the lands of the Carolingian empire lying east of the Rhine, together with a district around Spires, Worms and Mainz, on the left bank of the river. His territories included Bavaria, where he made Regensburg the centre of his government, Thuringia, Franconia and Saxony. He may truly be called the founder of the German kingdom, though his attempts to maintain the unity of the Empire proved futile. Having in 842 crushed a rising in Saxony, he compelled the Abotrites to own his authority, and undertook campaigns against the Bohemians, the Moravians and other tribes, but was not very successful in freeing his shores from the ravages of Danish pirates. At his instance synods and assemblies were held where laws were decreed for the better government of church and state. In 853 and the following years Louis made more than one attempt to secure the throne of Aquitaine, which the people of that country offered him in their disgust with the cruel misrule of harles the Bald. But though he met with sufficient success to encourage him to issue a charter in 858, dated " the first year of the reign in West Francia," treachery and desertion in his army, and the loyalty to Charles of the Aquitanian bishops brought about the failure of the enterprise, which Louis renounced by a treaty signed at Coblenz on the 7th of June 860.

Welf

Vater der Kaiserin Judith, war Spitzenahn der WELFEN.

Die Vermählung seiner Tochter Judith mit Kaiser LUDWIG DEM FROMMEN 819 zeigt Welf in der karolingischen Reicharistokratie. Er gehörte einem sehr vornehmen bayerischen Geschlecht an, zu seinen Vorfahren zählte aber auch der fränkische Graf Ruthard um die Mitte des 8. Jahrhunderts. Welf war mit der edlen Sächsin Heilwig verheiratet, die später Äbtissin der berühmten westfränkischen Abtei Chelles wurde (+ nach 833). Ob Welf, wie nachmals sein Sohn Konrad, gräfliche Positionen in Alemannien nördlich des Bodensees ausübte, wo die WELFEN später ihr Herrschaftszentrum hatten, bleibt ungewiß. In der welfischen Tradition des 12. Jahrhunderts begegnet Welf auch unter dem Namen Eticho, der durch die Heirat seines Sohnes Konrad mit der ETICHONIN Adelheid in das Namensgut der Familie eingedrungen ist.

3. Welf zeugte also einen Sohn namens Eticho und eine Tochter Judith. Die Judith führte Kaiser LUDWIG mit dem Beinamen DER FROMME, der Sohn KARLS DES GROSSEN als Gattin heim, nachdem seine Gemahlin Irmingard [1 Irmingard war am 3. Oktober 818 gestorben, LUDWIG vermählte sich im Februar 819 mit Judith in Aachen.] gestorben war, mit welcher er die Söhne LOTHAR, Pipin und Ludwig gezeugt hatte.

26. Im folgenden Jahr aber heiratete er die Tochter seines Herzogs Hwelf, aus einem sehr vornehmen Geschlecht der Bawarier, Namens Judith, welche durch ihre Mutter Eigilwi einem vornehmen sächsischen Geschlecht angehörte, und macht sie zur Königin. Denn sie war schön. In demselben Jahre hielt er eine allgemeine Reichsversammlung in dem Königshof Ingelheim.

32. Um diese Zeit dachte er auf den Rat der Seinigen in eine neue Ehe zu treten; denn viele fürchteten, er möchte die Regierung des Reichs ganz niederlegen. Endlich tat er ihrem Willen Genüge und nahm, nachdem er die von allen Seiten her ihm vorgeführten Töchter der Vornehmen gemustert hatte, Judith, des edeln Grafen Welpo Tochter, zur Gemahlin.

819

Nach Weihnachten wurde zu Aachen ein Reichstag gehalten, auf dem viel über den Zustand der Kirchen und Klöster verhandelt und beschlossen wurde; auch die Gesetze ergänzte man durch einige höchst notwendige Zusatzbestimmungen. Hierauf wählte sich der Kaiser, der zuvor die meisten Töchter der Vornehmen angesehen hatte, Judith, die Tochter des Grafen Welf, zur Gemahlin.

* + nach 825 als Äbtissin von Chelles (bei Paris)
* Tochter des Grafen Isanbart in Sachsen (Sohn des Grafen Warin) und der Thietrade, Tochter des KAROLINGERS Bernhard
* oo WELF (WELFHARD) (+ um 825)

Welf gehörte zur fränkischen Reichsaristokratie, anders sind die Ehen seiner Töchter nicht zu erklären. Er war auf jeden Fall kein Schwabe oder Bayer und wurde in den Quellen sogar schon "Dux" genannt, auch war er Graf in Bayern und Schwaben, ohne dass genaue Herrschaftsbereiche und Besitzbereiche auszumachen waren. Seine Familie kam wohl erst durch seine Frau zu ihrem Besitz in Schwaben. Er war möglicherweise Graf im Zürichgau und Argengau/Schussenried und wurde nur 819 aus Anlaß der Hochzeit seiner Tochter namentlich genannt. Die wahrscheinlichen Schwiegereltern und Großeltern sind einzige greifbare Vorfahren, agnatisch nirgends faßbar.

Schmid Karl: Seite 443

"Gebetsgedenken und adliges Selbstverständnis im Mittelalter"
Denn auf Welf, den Vater der Kaiserin Judith, treffen die Aussagen über den freiheitsstolzen, den Kaiserhof und die Kaiserabhängigkeit meidenden Eticho in frappierender Weise zu. Ein einziges Mal nämlich nur, anläßlich der Vermählung seiner Tochter mit dem Kaiser, taucht er in den Quellen auf. Ansonsten schweigt sich die Überlieferung über den Vater der Kaiserin Judith aus, dem immerhin bei seiner Erwähnung die Titel dux und comes zuerkannt wurden und der als Gemahl einer vornehmen Sächsin wohl selbst ein angesehener Mann gewesen sein muß [Der Annahme, Welf sei als "älterer Mann" vor 825 gestorben, da seine "Witwe" Heilwig im Jahre 825 Äbtissin des Klosters Chelles geworden ist, steht entgegen, dass Welfs Kinder erst nach Judiths Vermählung 819 in Erscheinung getreten (Hemmas Heirat: 827, Konrads und Rudolfs erste Bezeugung: 829) und zudem verhältnismäßig spät gestorben sind (Konrad: 863, Rudolf: 866, Hemma: 876) und dass die Äbtissin Heilwig von Chelles zwar sancta Deo, aber nicht "Witwe" genannt wird. Ein "Rückzug" Welfs scheint angesichts der Quellenlage nicht ausgeschlossen.]. Man hat die Königsferne Welfs, die zumindest bis zum Jahr der Heirat Judiths (819) währte, mit dem Schicksal des welfischen Vorfahren Ruthard in Zusammenhang gebracht [Dass die Herkunftssage des Namen Welf auch mit Warins Sohn Isanbard in Verbindung gebracht worden ist, der ebenfalls die Ungnade KARLS DES GROSSEN auf sich gezogen habe, soll nicht unerwähnt bleiben.]. Dieser einflußreiche Sachwalter des fränkischen Königs, der in Alemannien ein eigenmächtiges Regiment zum großen Leidwesen vor allem des St. Galler Abtes Otmar geführt hatte, verlor unter KARL DEM GROSSEN die Gunst des Königs und verschwand von der politischen Bühne, auf der sein Nachfahre Welf in auffallender Entsprechung nicht in Erscheinung trat. Die vage Andeutung der Historia Welforum, der WELFEN-Name sei anfänglich verschmäht worden, könnte sehr wohl auf Ruthards Missetaten dem heiligen Otmar gegenüber und seine Ungnade beim König Bezug nehmen, auf ein Urteil, das möglicherweise auf seinen Nachfahren Welf übertragen worden ist und diesen erbittert hat. Jedenfalls darf dem gewiß nicht unbedeutenden, aber in Distanz zum Hof lebenden Welf jenes Verhalten zugetraut werden, das dem freiheitsstolzen Eticho zugeschrieben wird, der selbst dem Kaiser gegenüber auf Unabhängigkeit pochte.

---

Fleckenstein Josef: Seite 72,114

"Die Herkunft der Welfen"

Die neuere Forschung erblickt in dem Vater der Kaiserin Judith, dem Grafen Welf, mit Recht den ersten, quellenmäßig direkt und damit sicher bezeugten Angehörigen des berühmten Geschlechts der WELFEN.

Aber schon die erste und einzige sichere Bezeugung Welfs anläßlich der Heirat seiner Tochter und LUDWIGS DES FROMMEN läßt erkennen, dass Welf kein homo novus war: er entstammte einer progenius nobilissima, wird comes nobilissimus und dux genannt - Bezeichnungen, die als Attribute der karolingischen Reichsaristokratie gelten dürfen und die den Grafen Welf als ihr bereits zugehörig ausweisen.

Die Verknüpfung Ruthards mit den WELFEN erlaubt uns nur, in Welf, dem Vater der Kaiserin Judith, einen Nachkommen Ruthards zu sehen. Ob er sein Sohn, sein Enkel [818 war Welf bereits ein älterer Mann; vor 825 ist er gestorben. Das spricht allerdings dafür, dass er der Sohnes- und nicht der Enkel-Generation Ruthards angehört hat.], vielleicht auch nur sein Neffe gewesen ist, ist nicht bezeugt und muß daher offen bleiben.

Dass Ruthard die königliche Gunst verloren hatte, bestätigt sich konkret eben dadurch, dass er auch politisch zurückgetreten ist. Dann konnte aber auch Welf unter KARL DEM GROSSEN vermutlich von vornherein nicht stärker hervortreten, wenn er ein Nachkomme Ruthards war, auf den sich die Ungnade des Königs übertragen hatte. Und sein Erscheinen im Jahre 819 bedeutete dann vor allem die Rückgewinnung der königsnahen Stellung, die Ruthard für sich und sein Geschlecht verloren hatte. So spiegelt sich, wie es scheint, auch noch in der vorübergehenden Königsferne der Zusammenhang zwischen Ruthard und Welf.

WELF [I], son of ROTHARD Graf & his wife --- (-[824/25]).

Settipani names Welf [I] as son of Rothard[824] but does not cite the primary source on which this is based.

The Annalista Saxo names "de principibus Bawarorum qui fuit binomius, name et Eticho et Welfus dicebatur" who was father of Empress Judith[825].

*She was installed as Abbess of Chelles, near Paris, through the influence of her daughter Empress Judith.

Welf [I] & his wife had four children:

1. RUDOLF [I] (-15 Oct 866).
*Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris names (in order) "Chuonradum et Ruodolfum" as brothers of Empress Judith[827].
*He was given the abbeys of Saint-Riquier and Jumièges, through the influence of his sister Empress Judith. The Chronique de Saint Riquier records that "Rodolphe…du sang imperial…oncle du glorieux roi Charles" succeeded abbé Louis as lay abbot of Saint-Riquier[828]. The Annales Alamannicorum record "Hruodolfus frater Iudith Augustæ" among those who swore allegiance in 864[829].
*Comte de Sens.
*The Annales Bertiniani record the death in 866 of "Rodulfus Karoli regis avunculus"[830]. The Adonis Continuatio records the death in 866 of "avunculus quoque eius [Carolo, Ludovici filii"] Radulfus, consiliarius primusque palatii"[831]. Two contemporary Epitafia commemorate "nobilis…Rhuodulfus", the second recording his death "Idus octavo"[832].
*m HRUODUN, daughter of --- (-after 867). The primary source which confirms her marriage has not yet been identified.

2. CONRAD "l'Ancien" (-22 Mar [862/66]).
*Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris names (in order) "Chuonradum et Ruodolfum" as brothers of Empress Judith[833].
*Graf von Linz- und Argengau.
*Dux.
*Nithard records that Conrad and his brother Rudolf were forcibly tonsured in [Apr 830] by their sister's stepson, Lothar, then in revolt against his father, and sent to Aquitaine "to be held by Pepin"[834].
*Comte de Paris.
*The Miraculis Sancti Germani record that "Chuonradus princeps" was cured of an eye problem by the saint, and that he built the church of Saint-Germain at Auxerre in thanks[835].
*An agreement between Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks and his brother Ludwig II "der Deutsche" King of the East Franks dated Jun 860 names "nobilis ac fidelibus laicis…Chuonradus, Evrardus, Adalardus, Arnustus, Warnarius, Liutfridus, Hruodolfus, Erkingarius, Gislebertus, Ratbodus, Arnulfus, Hugo, item Chuonradus, Liutharius, Berengarius, Matfridus, Boso, Sigeri, Hartmannus, Liuthardus, Richuinus, Wigricus, Hunfridus, Bernoldus, Hatto, Adalbertus, Burchardus, Christianus, Leutulfus, Hessi, Herimannus, item Hruodulfus, Sigehardus"[836].

A poem by Walahfridus Strabus records the epitaph of "Adelheidam"[841]. The primary source which confirms her parentage has not yet been identified. Some secondary works[842] assert that the second husband of Adelais was Robert "le Fort" [Capet]. If this is correct, Adelais must have been Comte Robert's second wife as his known children were already born by the time Adelais's husband Conrad died. Settipani[843] states that the only basis for the assertion is a 12th century interpolation in the Chronicle of Saint-Bénigne de Dijon, which is of little historical value. Nevertheless, he suggests that it is likely that the wife of Comte Robert was a close relation of Adelais, although the basis for this is not known.
*Comte Conrad & his wife had [five] children: Welf (d. before 876, Graf im Linzgau, Graf in Alpgau, father of Conrad Graf im Linzgau and Eticho Graf im Ammergau), Conrad (d. 876, Comte d'Auxerre 858-861, then Marquis de Transjurane), Hugo (d. 886, Archbishop of Köln, Marquis de Neustrie, Comte de Tours et d'Angers, Comte d'Auxerre), Rudolf, and possibly Judith (wife of Udo Graf im Lahngau).

3. JUDITH ([805]-Tours 19 Apr 843, bur Tours Saint-Martin).
*Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris names "filiam Hwelfi ducis sui, qui erat de nobilissima progenie Bawariorum…Iudith…ex parte matris…Eigilwi nobilissimi generic Saxonici" as second wife of Emperor Louis, specifying that she was "enim pulchra valde"[856]. The Vita Hludowici Imperatoris records the marriage of "Iudith filiam Welponis…comitis" and Emperor Louis I[857].
*The Annales Xantenses record the marriage in Feb 819 of "Ludewicus imperator" and "Iudith"[858]. Judith was influential with her husband, which increased the tensions with his sons by his first marriage.
*Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris records that "quondam duce Bernhardo, qui erat de stirpe regali" was accused of violating "Iudith reginam" but comments that this was all lies[859].
*Judith was exiled to the monastery of Sainte-Croix de Poitiers during the first rebellion of her stepsons in 830, was released in 831, but exiled again to Tortona in Italy in 833 from where she was brought back in Apr 834[860].
*The necrology of the abbey of Saint-Denis records the death "XIII Kal Mai" of "Judith regina"[861]. The Annales Xantenses record the death in 843 of "Iudhit imperatrix mater Karoli" at Tours[862].
*m (Aix-la-Chapelle Feb 819) as his second wife, Emperor LOUIS I, son of Emperor CHARLES I "Charlemagne" King of the Franks & his second wife Hildegardis (Chasseneuil-du-Poitou {Vienne} [16 Apr/Sep] 778-island in the Rhine near Ingelheim 20 Jun 840, bur bur Metz, église abbatiale de Saint-Arnoul).

4. EMMA [Hemma] (-31 Jan 876, bur Regensburg St Emmeran).
*The Annales Xantenses record the marriage in 827 of "Ludewicus rex" and "sororem Iudith imperatricis" but does not name her[863]. This appears to be the only source in which her origin is given. "Ludowicus…rex" made a donation to St Felix & Regula in Zurich naming "filia nostra Bertha…[et] coniugis nostræ Hemmæ" by charter dated 29 Oct 863[864].
*The Gesta Francorum records that "Hemma quoque regina" became paralysed in 874, died at Regensburg in 876 and was buried in the church of St Emmeran[865]. The necrology of Regensburg St Emmeran records the death "II Kal Feb" of "Hemma regina hic sepulta"[866]. The necrology of Augia Divis records the death "II Kal Feb" of "Hemma regina"[867]. The necrology of Nonnberg records the death "2 Kal Jan" of "Hemma imperatrix sor na"[868].

From the English Wikipedia page on the Elder House of Welf

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elder_House_of_Welf

The Elder House of Welf was a dynasty of European rulers in the 9th through 11th centuries to 1055. It consisted of two groups, a Burgundian group and a Swabian group. It is disputed whether the two groups formed one dynasty or whether they shared the same name by coincidence only.

Burgundian group

The older of the two groups was the Burgundian group. Its oldest known member was Welf, the first Count of Altdorf. He was mentioned in 819 as father of Judith (not to be confused with Welf I of the Swabian group). The younger sons of the first count of Altdorf, Conrad and Rudolf accompanied their sister to the court of her husband, Louis the Pious, where their ambitious spirit maintained their hereditary rank, and where they shared the happy, as well as the adverse fortunes of that sister. When Judith was surprised and confined by her stepsons, her brothers were shaven as priests; but even in this degraded state, they claimed and obtained permission to stand beside the throne, as priests of the blood-royal.

Conrad had two sons: Conrad II, who succeeded him; and Hugh, from his church preferment, styled the Abbot. He is traditionally given a third son, Welf I of the Swabian group.

Conrad II succeeded his father in the dignity of Count of Paris, and recovered the estates of his grand-uncle Otkarius, in the province of Burgundy. He left an only son Rudolph, who assumed the royal crown, at the abbacy of St Maurice en Valais, in 888, and whose independence being confirmed by two victories over Arnulf, the emperor, was at last acknowledged, in a general diet of the German empire. His son, Rudolph II succeeded to this new-formed state, which included the French or western part of Switzerland, Franche Comté, Savoy, Dauphiné, Provence, and the country between the Rhine and the Alps, and was known as the kingdom of Burgundy. He twice attempted the conquest of Italy, and for a period of three years, governed in that kingdom.

His son and successor, Conrad III, reigned upwards of fifty-six years, from 937 to 993, and enjoyed the friendship and support of the Saxon emperors. Otto I married his sister Adelaide, and she was the mother of Otto II, and the grandmother of Otto III. Conrad was succeeded by his son Rudolph III, surnamed the Lossy, who dying in 1032 without issue, the sovereignty of the kingdom of Burgundy devolved as a fief or legacy to his nephew Conrad of Swabia, who was elected emperor in 1024. With Rudolph, this branch became extinct in the male fine.

The last member of the Burgundian group was King Rudolph III of Burgundy, who died childless in 1032.

Swabian group

The oldest known member of the Swabian group was Welf I, a count in Swabia who was first mentioned in 842. According to legend, Welf I was a son of Conrad, son of Welf, the ancestor of the Burgundian group. This relationship is considered probable because both Conrad and Welf I were counts of Linzgau and Alpgau. The relationship between Welf I and all later members of the Swabian group (Welf, Duke of Carinthia, and his relatives, who were counts of Altdorf) is, again, known only through legend.

The Elder House of Welf became extinct when Welf, Duke of Carinthia, died childless in 1055. The property of the House of Welf was inherited by the elder branch of the House of Este that came to be known as the younger House of Welf, or House of Welf-Este.

Notable members of the Burgundian group

* Welf, Count of Altdorf
* Judith, daughter of Welf, Empress
* Rudolph I, King of Burgundy
* Rudolph II, King of Burgundy
* Conrad I, King of Burgundy
* Gisela of Burgundy
* Adelaide of Italy
* Rudolph III, King of Burgundy

Notable members of the Swabian group

* Welf I
* Saint Conrad of Constance
* Welf, Duke of Carinthia (Welf III)
