Subject: A Descent from Ridoredh
Date: Mon, 1 Apr 1996 08:24:14 EDT


As we have been discussing Bretons so much lately, I thought
I would toss out what I have pieced together. Those of you
who have read my earlier postings know where I get 80% of my
info from- my Husband has cautioned me not to cite this reference
because I might be sued! (sigh...)

Ridoredh, Count of Nantes, b. ca. 824
Alain I, Duke of Brittany, ca. 854-907
m. Oreguen (no further info)
Paskwitan II, Count of Rennes
Matuedoi, Count of Poher, b. ca. 880

b. ca. 944 - d. June 27, 992 at battle of Conquereil
m. Ermengarde of Anjou (no dates, but she was daughter
of Geoffrey I of Anjou & Adelaide of Vermandois, which
gives her multiple descents from Charlemagne and also
Thierry of Autun.

m. Bertha of Chartres, daughter of Eudes II of
Blois & Ermengarde of Auvergne (would like more info)
