Martel was the son of Pepin II and his concubine, Alpaida. Martel was also grandfather to Charlemagne.
His first wife was Rotrude of Treves,

Charles "The Hammer" Martel was the defacto King of the Franks from 737-741 (Officially he was Duke and Prince of the Franks). He was also known as a great general, and is most famous for his victory at the Battle of Tours, in which he defeated an invading Muslim army and halted northward Islamic expansion in western Europe.

Martel was the son of Pepin II and his concubine, Alpaida.
Around 670, Pepin had married Plectrude, who had inherited substantial estates in the Moselle region. She was the mother of Drogo of Champagne and Grimoald, both of whom died before their father. However, Pepin also had a mistress named Alpaida (or Chalpaida) who bore him two more sons: Charles and Childebrand. Charles had gained favor among the Austrasians, primarily for his military prowess and ability to keep them well supplied with booty from his conquests. Despite the efforts of Plectrude to silence her rival's child by imprisoning him, he became the sole mayor of the palace --and de facto ruler of Francia-- after a civil war which lasted for more than three years after Pepin's death.
Martel was also grandfather to Charlemagne.
Charles Martel married twice:
His first wife was Rotrude of Treves, (690-724) (daughter of St. Leutwinus, Bishop of Treves). They had the following children:
Hiltrud (d. 754), married Odilo I, Duke of Bavaria
Carloman
Landrade (Landres), married Sigrand, Count of Hesbania
Auda, Aldana, or Alane, married Thierry IV, Count of Autun and Toulouse
Pippin the Short
His second wife was Swanhild. They had the following child:
* Grifo
Charles Martel also had a mistress, Ruodhaid. They had the following children:
* Bernard (b. before 732-787)
* Hieronymus
* Remigius, archbishop of Rouen (d. 771)
* Ian (d. 783)
