Einhard names "Drogonem et Hugum" as sons of King Charles by his concubine "Reginam"[161]. The Annales Weissemburgenses record the birth "802 aut 803 15 Kal Iul" of Drogo[162]. He and his brother Hugues, and their half-brother Thierry, were brought up in the palace of their half-brother Emperor Louis I after their father died, but after the revolt of Bernard King of Italy in 818 they were forcibly tonsured and "put under free custody into monasteries"[163].

He died after falling into the River Oignon in which he was fishing[166]. A list of bishops of Metz records "domnus Drogo archiepiscopus et sacri palate summus capellanus, filius Karoli imperatoris" as 40th bishop, holding the position for 32 years, 5 months and 7 days, his death "VI Id Dec in Burgundia, prâ¶dio sancti Petri Mimeriaco" and his burial in "urbem Medimmatricorum·Ä¶in ecclesia beati Iohannis apostoli"[167].

Einhard names "Drogonem et Hugum" as sons of King Charles by his concubine "Reginam"[168]. He is named "Hugo venerabilis filius Karoli regis magni" in the Cartulaire of Saint-Bertin[169]. He and his brother Drogo, and their half-brother Thierry, were brought up in the palace of their half-brother Emperor Louis I after their father died, but after the revolt of Bernard King of Italy in 818 they were forcibly tonsured and "put under free custody into monasteries"[170].

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Hugh (802·Äì844) was the illegitimate son of Charlemagne and his concubine Regina, with whom he had one other son: Bishop Drogo of Metz (801·Äì855).
Hugh was the abbot of several abbacies: Saint-Quentin (822·Äì823), Lobbes (836), and Saint-Bertin (836). In 834, he was made archchancellor of the Holy Roman Empire by Louis the Pious, his half-brother.
He is sometimes confused with Hugh the Abbot, resulting in the erroneous claim that he had a daughter, Petronilla, who married Tertullus of Anjou, the semi-legendary father of Ingelger, first count of Anjou. The late accounts of the Angevin origins actually make Petronilla a kinswoman of Hugh the Abbot, not of Charlemagne's son.

From‰ http://www.rpi.edu/~holmes/Hobbies/Genealogy/ps05/ps05_203.htm:
W.H.Turton, "The Plantagenet Ancestry" (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1968), p. 6, states that Hugues l'Abbi (d. 844) is father of Tertullus d'Anjou (instead of Conrad of Paris), and that Hughes lAbbi is a son of Charlemagne and Regine. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 1956 Ed., 1:976: "...towards 861, Charles the Bald entrusted [the county of Anjou] to Robert the Strong, but he unfortunately met with his death in 866.... Hugh the Abbot succeeded him in the countship of Anjou as in most of his other duties, and on his death (886) it passed to Odo, the eldest son of Robert the Strong, who, on his accession to the throne of France (888), probably handed it over to his brother Robert. In any case, during the last years of the 9th century, in Anjou as elsewhere the power was delegated to a viscount, Fulk the Red, son of a certain Ingelgerius."

CHARLES, son of PEPIN "le Bref" King of the Franks & his wife Bertrada [Berta] "au Grand Pied" ([near Aix-la-Chapelle[57]] 2 Apr [747/48]-Aix-la-Chapelle 28 Jan 814, bur Aix-la-Chapelle, Chapelle Sainte-Marie).¬â He is named first son of King Pâ©pin and Bertrada in the Cartulaire of Saint-Bertin[58].¬â A calendar from Lorsch records the birth ·ÄúIV Non Apr·Äù of ·ÄúKaroli imperatoris et semper augusti·Äù[59].¬â The year of his birth is open to debate.¬â The¬â Annales¬â Fuldenses¬â record his death in 814 at the age of about 71[60], which would suggest [742/43] which is inconsistent with the suggested marriage date of his parents (see above).¬â The¬â Annalium Petavianorum Continuatio¬â record the birth in 747 of ·ÄúKarolus rex·Äù[61].¬â Settipani suggests that this date should be considered ·ÄúOld Style·Äù.¬â This assumes (1) that the Lorsch calendar correctly records the day of his birth, (2) that the order of entries for that year in the¬â Annalium Petavianorum Continuatio¬â is chronological (the preceding sentence records Carloman·Äôs departure for Rome which is dated to after 15 Aug 747[62]), and (3) that 2 Apr 747 was Easter Sunday which he suggests would have been noted in sources if it had been the emperor·Äôs date of birth[63].¬â It seems preferable to indicate [747/48] as Charles·Äôs possible date of birth.¬â The conjectures about Charles·Äôs place of birth were discussed at length by Hahn in the mid-19th century[64].¬â At the coronation of his father in 754, Charles was also anointed by Pope Stephen III [II][65].¬â On the death of his father, he received the larger part of Austrasia, Neustria and western Aquitaine, succeeding as¬â CHARLES I¬â joint¬â King of the Franks, jointly with his brother Carloman, and was crowned 9 Oct 768 at Noyon.¬â He suppressed the revolt of Hunald in Aquitaine in 769, over which he quarrelled with his brother Carloman[66].¬â On the death of his brother in 771, he set aside the rights of his nephew and became sole king of the Franks.¬â He defended the Pope against the Lombards, conquering their kingdom in 773.¬â He is recorded in charters as having used the title "rex¬â Francorum et Langobardorum" from 5 Jun 774, adding "atque patricius Romanorum" from 16 Jul 774[67].¬â He accepted the submission of Saxony at Paderborn in 777.¬â During his campaign in Spain in 778, he captured Pamplona, while Zaragoza, Huesca, Barcelona and Girona swore allegiance to him.¬â He had his sons crowned king of the Lombards and king of the Aquitainians by Pope Adrian I at Rome 15 Apr 781.¬â He incorporated Bavaria and Carinthia into his kingdom in 787, followed by Thuringia, Hessen and Alemannia, by 797.¬â He re-established Pope Leo III after the latter was ambushed by the Romans in 799, and was crowned¬â CHARLES I¬â ·ÄúCharlemagne·Äù¬â Emperor of the Romans¬â in St Peter's Rome 25 Dec 800, which the Pope justified technically on the basis of an alleged vacancy of the imperial throne, which could not be occupied by a woman, during the reign at Constantinople of Empress Eirene.¬â At the assembly of Thionville 6 Feb 806, Emperor Charles decided the division of territories between his sons.¬â Byzantine ambassadors from Emperor Mikhael I finally recognised Charlemagne as emperor (although not "Roman Emperor") at Aix-la-Chapelle in 812[68].¬â After the death of his two older sons, he crowned his son Louis as associate emperor at Aix-la-Chapelle 11 Sep 813.¬â The necrology of Prâºm records the death "814 V Kal Feb" of "Karolus imperator"[69].¬â The¬â Annales¬â Fuldenses¬â record the death "814 V Kal Feb" of "Karolus imperator" at Aachen at the age of about 71[70].¬â The necrology of Saint-Germain-des-Prâ©s records the death 814 ·ÄúV Kal Feb·Äù of ·Äúdomni Karoli imperatoris·Äù[71].¬â

King Charles I & his second wife had nine children[100]:
1.¬â ¬â ¬â ¬â ¬â ¬â ¬â ¬â ¬â CHARLES¬â ([772/73]-in Bavaria 4 Dec 811[101]).¬â He is named, and his parentage recorded, in the¬â Gesta¬â Mettensium, which specifies that he was his parents' first son[102].¬â The¬â Chronicon Fontanellense¬â records that Charles I King of the Franks proposed a marriage between ·ÄúOffⶠRege Anglorum sive Merciorum·Ä¶filiam·Äù and ·ÄúCarolus iunior·Äù, but that King Offa refused unless ·ÄúBerta filia Caroli Magni·Äù was also married to his son which was unacceptable to the Frankish king[103].¬â King Charles ordered an embargo on trade imports from England as a result[104].¬â His father associated Charles in the government of Francia and Saxony in 790[105].¬â ¬â Comte¬â [duc?]¬â du Mans¬â [790]: the¬â Annales Laurissenses¬â record that "rex¬â Carolus" installed "primogenitum filium suum Carolum" in "ultra Sequaname·Ä¶ducatum Cenomannicum" but that this reverted to his father in the summer of the same year[106].¬â From this time Charles used the title king, and was crowned King of the Franks at Rome 25 Dec 800.¬â Einhard records that "Karolum filium suum [Karoli imperatoris]" invaded "terram Sclavorum·Ä¶Sorabi" in 806 as far as "super Albium fluvium" and that "Miliduoch¬â Sclavorum¬â dux" was killed during the campaign[107].¬â At the partition agreed at Thionville in 806, Charles was designated sovereign of Francia (Austrasia and Neustria), northern Burgundy, northern Alemannia, Thuringia, Saxony, Frisia and the Bavarian Nordgau[108].¬â The¬â Gesta¬â Francorum¬â records the death "811 II Non Dec" of "Karolus filius imperatoris qui maior natu erat"[109].¬â Einhard's¬â Annales¬â also record the death "811 II Non Dec" of "Karlus filius imperatoris qui maior natu erat"[110].¬â The¬â Annales¬â Fuldenses¬â record the death "811 II Non Dec" of "Karolus filius imperator qui maior natu erat"[111].¬â
