HERMANN [Billung] ([905/10]-Quedlinburg 27 Mar 973, bur Lüneburg St Michael).  The Cronica Principum Saxonie names "Bilingus…filium Hermannum"[221].  His birth date range is estimated on the assumption that he was adult when appointed military commander in 936.  He was given military command in Saxony ("princeps militiæ") by Otto I King of Germany in 936, which triggered the revolt of his brother Wichmann[222].  Graf in Wetigau 940.  Procurator of the king in Saxony 953, 961 and 966.  "Otto…rex" granted property "Ozmina marcam…et Tarata marcam cum castello Grodista" to "vassallo Billing" by charter dated 26 Jun 952[223].  "Otto…rex" granted property to the church of St Moritz, Magdeburg by charter dated 953, which names "Billingus…noster miles"[224].  Graf in dem Gauen Tilithi und Marstem 955.  Markgraf 956: "Otto…rex" granted rights to salt duties to Lüneburg St Mikhael at the request of "Herimanni marchionis" by charter dated 13 Aug 956[225].  "Otto…rex" gave property "in pago Usiti in comitatu comitis Willihelmi" to "nostro fideli vasallo comitique Billinc" by charter dated 2 Dec 958[226], which may refer to Hermann Billung although he is not titled Markgraf in the document.  "Otto…rex" granted property "in locis Vurmerstat, Otunpach, Gozarstat, Haholtestat…in pago Usiti in comitatu comitis Uuillihelmi" to "vasallo comitisque…Billinc" by charter dated 2 Dec 958[227].  "Otto…rex" granted property "Asundorf marcam et Dornsteti marcam Liubissa…in pago Hassigeuui in comitatu comitis Sigiuuridi…loco Biscopstat…in pago Altgeuui in comitatu comitis Uuillihelmi" to "vassallo Billing" by charter dated 23 Apr 961[228].  "Otto…imperator augustus" granted property "in pago Neletici in comitatu Billingi comitis" to Magdeburg St Moritz by charter dated 28 Jul 965[229].  Dux in Saxony 965.  He founded St Michaeliskloster at Lüneburg.  The necrology of Fulda records the death in 973 of "Heriman dux"[230].  Thietmar records the death of Duke Hermann, father of Bernhard, at Quedlinburg on 1 Apr,  the transportation of his body to Lüneburg, and the refusal by Bruno Bishop of Verden (maybe his nephew) to allow his burial in church because of his prior excommunication[231].  The necrology of Lüneburg records the death "27 Mar" of "Herimannus dux"[232].
