Flodoard of Reims 894&ndash 966 was a France French chronicler . Biography He was born at pernay , and educated at Reims in the cathedral school which had been established by Archbishop Fulcon 822 900 . As canon of Reims, and favourite of the archbishops Herivaeus d. 922 and Seulfus d. 925 , he occupied while still young an important position at the archiepiscopal court, but was twice deprived of his benefices by Herbert II, Count of Vermandois , on account of his steady opposition to the election of the count s infant son to the archbishopric. Upon the final triumph of Archbishop Artold during the 948 Universal Synod of Ingelheim , Flodoard became for a time his chief adviser, but withdrew to a monastery in 952, and spent the remaining years of his life in literary and devotional work. His history of the cathedral church at Reims Historia Remensis Ecclesiae is one of the most remarkable productions of the 10th century.

Turpin died c. 2 September 800 was an archbishop of Reims during the late 8th century. He was for many years regarded as the author of the legendary Historia Caroli Magni Historia de vita Caroli Magni et Rolandi , and appears as one of the Twelve Peers in a number of the chansons de geste , the most important of which is The Song of Roland La Chanson de Roland . He is probably identical with Tilpin , an 8th century archbishop of Reims alluded to by Hincmar , his third successor in the Holy See . According to Flodoard , Charles Martel drove Rigobert , archbishop of Reims, from his office and replaced Rigobert with a warrior clerk named Milo of Reims Milo , afterwards bishop of Trier . The same writer represents Milo as discharging a mission among the Vascones , or Basques , the very people to whom authentic history has ascribed the Battle of Roncevaux Pass great disaster which befell the army of Charlemagne at Roncevaux Pass . It is thus possible that the warlike legends which have gathered around the name of Turpin are due to some confusion of his identity with that of his martial predecessor. Flodoard says that Tilpin was originally a monk at Saint Denis Basilica , and Hincmar tells how after his appointment to Reims he occupied himself in securing the restoration of the rights and properties of his church, the revenues and prestige of which had been impaired under Milo s rule. Tilpin was elected archbishop between 752 and 768, probably in 753 he died, if the evidence of a diploma alluded to by Jean Mabillon may be trusted, in 794, although it has been stated that this event took place on the 2nd of September 800. Hincmar, who composed his epitaph , makes him bishop for over forty years, and from this it is evident that he was elected about 753, and Flodoard says that he died in the forty seventh year of his archbishopric. Tilpin was present at the Council of Rome in 769, and at the request of Charlemagne Pope Adrian I sent him the pallium and confirmed the rights ... more details

Orphan date January 2011 Merolilan of Rheims , Irish people Irish Christian martyr , died 8th century. Background Merolilian was an Irish people Irish preacher who is commemorated on May 18 and or 31st. He was killed at Rheims , France . No tradition of him or his exact origins survived in Ireland, only a cult based at Rheims. Martyrdom According to O Hanlon, An account of St. Merolilanus is to be found, in the ancient Breviary of the Diocese of Rheims , in France and, the accomplished Flodoard , in his history of that ancient church, sets forth several particulars, regarding the holy man. St. Merolilanus was of Irish race indicated by the term Scotigena applied to him and he travelled into France, with some companions, for the purpose of making a pilgrimage to Rome . Passing along the River Axona now known as L Aisne some robbers set upon the travellers, and those freebooters killed Merolilanus. His companions brought the body of the holy man to Rheims, where it was interred in an ancient cemetery. For a long time, the very memory of St. Merolilanus seems to have been forgotten, in the place of his sepulture , until miracles revealed the spot where he was buried. It happened in the time of Hildegarius, a Priest of Rheims, as we are told in the History of that city, by Flodoard. Translation of relics Upon the restoration of Archbishop Artaud to Rheims in 935, the remains of Merolilanus were translated to the Church of the Holy Apostles and of St. Symphronien, Martyr, at Rheims. It seems probable, that either Archbishop Artaldus, or his successor Odalricus, took care to have this ceremony carried out, with due solemnity, and according to the requirement of St. Merolilanus.

Hugh of Vermandois born 920 was the Archbishop of Reims from 925 to 931, when he was removed from office by the actions of Hugh the Great and others, his father Herbert II, Count of Vermandois who had been the power behind his episcopate was driven out of Reims and the bishopric was then assumed by Artoldus . Hugh had been made bishop at the age of five, which makes him on of the youngest bishops ever. From 940 946 Hugh again served as bishop of Reims, making him a full 26 years old when he ended his time as bishop. He was again ousted by war and replaced by Artoldus in 946. In 961 after Artoldus death there was an attempt to restore Hugh to his episcopal office, however Pope John XII decided against this and instead made Odelricus the new bishop. At this point Hugh was also excommunicated.

Ermengol or Ermengaud died after July 935 was a son of Odo of Toulouse and Garsindis. His father gave him the County of Rouergue and Quercy in 906 and he governed it to his death. His brother was Raymond II of Toulouse and together they governed the vast patrimony of their house in the first half of the tenth century. In 930, he donated property to the abbey of Abbey of Vabres Vabres in a charter dated to the seventh year of Rudolph of France King Rudolph bearing only the title of comes count . In January 932, he made a similar donation with the title of princeps prince . He was probably regarded as princeps Gothiae , a title which was to run in his family in the tenth century. He and his nephew Raymond Pons of Toulouse , together with Sancho IV of Gascony , went to the court of Rudolph that year to do homage for their lands. ref Flodoard gives this duke as Lupus Aznar Vasco , but Lewis, 184n, takes this as a reference to a duke of Gascony named S nchez. ref This did not have the desired effect, however, of satisfying royal desires for influence in the south and Rudolph accompanied Ebalus of Aquitaine against the Vikings a short while later, strengthening the Ramnulfid dynasty against that of the Rouergue in the fight for supremacy in Aquitaine . ref Lewis, 187. ref Ermengol and his wife Adelais Adalaiz had two known sons and one daughter, though charters of his eldest son indicate that he had other sons besides his two heirs.

Thankmar or Tammo c. 908 28 July 938 was the eldest and only son of Henry I of Germany by his first wife, Hatheburg or Liutgard . His mother had been previously married and widowed, after which she entered a convent. Because she left the convent to marry Henry, her second marriage was considered invalid and the couple split. Thankmar s legitimacy was, therefore, in question. In 929, Henry I arranged for his succession and had the arrangement ratified by an assembly at Erfurt , just before his death. After his death, his lands and wealth were divided between his four sons Thankmar, Otto I of Germany Otto , Henry I of Bavaria Henry , and Bruno I, Archbishop of Cologne Bruno . ref Bernhardt, 3. ref Otto, however, was designated by his father to receive the crown.

Charles Constantine died 962 was the Count of Vienne , son of Louis the Blind , King of Burgundy King of Provence , and the Holy Roman Emperor . Name and maternity About his name, he was never called Charles Constantine . Rather Flodoard , copied later by Richar , calls him Constantinus . We know that his proper name was Carolus Charles from a diploma of his father, and from his own charters.

It has been speculated that Constance, wife to Boso II of Arles and grandmother of Queen Constance of Arles , was their daughter. Through her, Charles Constantine would be an ancestor of the Capetian dynasty Capetian kings of France and the Norman dynasty Norman and Hou ... more details
