Summarized Genealogical Explanation

The Perspective

The synopsis covers a complex mapping of the houses of Razes, Vere, Fulk, Stuart House Of Welf, Lorraine, Flanders, Baldwin, Aquitaine, Scandinavian royal blood, touching base in Clan Robertson, and The Holy Sepulcher in relation to the parent Brythonic Pendragon House Of David. The following will start with the history of the mayors of the palace because they caused a great influence rendering the rightful Kings powerless. This document will start and cover the families of Panthievre and Rollo’s family including Ragnar Lothbrok in particular Gisela Rollo’s wife and her descent from Arnulf an illegitimate line that descended from a daughter of King Chlotaire an ancestor of the initial line of Razes of Merovingian origin and how it correlates with myself as a lead descendant of Dagobert I.

The story begins with Duke or Dux Arnulf Of The Schelde who tutored young Dagobert I and controlled a strategic 350km river a trading route that spans from northern France, western Belgium, south western part of the Netherlands flowing out at the North Sea. In the early 600’s Arnulf married an unknown named daughter of Ansbertus a Gallo Roman Senator. His parents were Bodegeisel II Of France, Governor of Aquitaine (560-588) and his wife Oda(Chrodoare of Savoy),(560-634). They had a son Ansegisel who married Begga daughter of Pepin I Of Landen. Arnulf is thus the male line grandfather of Pepin of Herstal, Great Grandfather of Charles Martel nd 3rd Great Grand Father of Charlemagne.





The austrasian rule passed to Brunhilda, the grandmother of Theudebert ruler of Burgundy on behalf of her Great Grand Children. In 613, Arnulf and Pepin of Landen led the revolt that over throw, tortured and executed Queen Brunhilda making the Frankish lands unified under Chlothachar II. Chlothachar made his son Dagobert I King with Arnulf as his advisor and Pepin Of Landen as Mayor of the palace. In 624, Dagobert was told by Arnulf and Pepin to murder Chrodoald leader of the Agilolfings Frankish family. In 625, Arnulf joined the Frankish Bishops at the Council at Reims. In 628, Arnulf retired to a hermitage in the mountains in the Vosges as a monk on his own land. His friend preceded him there in 613 building Remiremont Abbey. His friend was Romaric and Amatus who were there before Arnulf arrived. In 629, Arnulf settled near Habendum, passing away between 643 and 647.

Years prior his son Ansegisel married Begga in 639. Their children were:
• Pepin The Middle (635 or 640, Dec.16, 714) Mayor Of The Palace Of Austrasia
• Martin Of Laon (647-680)
• Clotilda Of Herstal (650-699), married King Theuderic III Of Neustria.

Pepin The Middle or Pepin II married Plectrude, Alpaida. Their children were:
• Grimoald
• Drogo
• Charles
• Childebrand
• Others
Pepin named his grandson Theudoald his heir. Charles Martel didn’t accept this and went to civil war emerging victorious. The marriage of Begga and Ansegisel united the Pippinids and Arnulfings creating the Carolingian Dynasty.

Pepin and Martin fought Ebroin Mayor Of Neustria being defeated by Ebroin Hethen came close to uniting all franks under his reign but failed do to being assassinated in 681 by a combined attack by a number of his enemies. Then later Pepin and Ebroin’s successor Warratton became peaceful to each other. Berchar the heir to Waratton and Theuderic III were defeated by Austrasia when they waged war on the kingdom. In turn defeated in Vermandois in 687 in the Battle Of Textry or Textrice.

Pepin than forced Berchar to leave his stead and everything through a peace treaty making Pepin Mayor in all three kingdoms(Austrasia, Neustria, and Burgundy) styling himself dux et princeps francorum translated,” Duke and Prince Of The Franks”. In the end after killing his mother in law Ansfled, Berchar fled. His wife Anstrude decided to marry Pepin’s eldest son Drogo Duke Of Champagne securing Neustria as his. Pepin barely being tolerated put a side local resistances to focus on Germany. He than brought the Alemanni, Frisious, and Franconians under Frankish influence.

In 690-692 the fall of Utrecht occurred. This allowed the franks to take over the trade routes on the Rhine to the North Sea. Willibrord’s missionary work was also supported by Pepin. In 695 Pepin named Drogo Mayor Of Burgundy and Grimoald Mayor Of Neustria. 714 December 16 at the age of 79 Pepin passed away. Plectrude’s plan to convince him to disinherit the sons he had with Alpaida instead placing Theudoald his grandson failed after his death after trying to maintain the position of Mayor. The austrasians chose Charles due to his military background, discoveries, supplies and riches from his travels. After being imprisoned by Plectrude and three years of civil war Charles Martel became Mayor Of The Palace.



718-732 Charles won succession through a series of victorious triumphs. Defeating the threat in the Teutoburg Forest securing the borders on behalf of King Chlotaire. After these series started in 719 upon the death of Frisian leader Radbod. Charles assumed control over west Frisia with little action required. The Frisians were subjects than rebelled when Pippin died.

721 Chilperic II died, Charles made Dagobert III’s son Theuderic IV King who was very young from 721-737. He is now appointing kings as figure heads and by the end of his time he didn’t appoint any at all. In 724 Charles defeated the Saxons under Ragenfrid who gave up his sons in exchange for the County Of Anjou ending the civil wars. In 732 Charles turned his attention to the southern realm of Aquitaine looting it twice before Odo took control again.

737 At the campaigning at Provence and Septimania, Theuderic IV died. Charles calling himself Maior domus and princeps et dux francorum. He never appointed a new king and the throne stayed vacant for sometime after. 741 oct.22 Charles Martel died. His adult sons were given as follows Carloman received Austrasia, Alemannia, and Thuringia. Pepin The Younger Neustria, Burgundy, Provence, Metz and Trier. Grifo was given lands right before Charles died.

Grifo was forced to surrender by his two half brothers imprisoned in a monastery. Carloman tried to secure his claim by putting Childeric on the throne in 743. In 747 Carloman was pressured to abdicate and join a monastery. Grifo escaped fleeing to be with Duke Odilo of Bavaria married to Pepin’s sister Hiltrude. Pepin stopped the revolt restoring the kingdom’s boarders.



Pepin Mayor of the palace was subject to the decision making of Childeric III who carried the title of king with no power. Pepin controlled the magnates having kingly powers. His son Charlemagne was born on April.2/747. 768 he became King of the franks, 774 became king of the lombards, and in 800 became Emperor of the romans. His children were Pepin the hunchback, Charles the younger, Pepin of Italy, Louis The Pious among others. 814 Charlemagne was laid to rest in Aachon Cathedral. The youngest child Louis Pious was the only surviving son to succeed him. He reigned from 781-814 issuing Lothair I as king of middle Francia, Louis II The German as king of east Francia, and Charles II The Bald as king of West Francia.

In years later Nevenoe Tad Ar Vro who’s the direct descendant of Dagobert I who served Louis The Pious as Scandinavian emissary was a separate individual altogether not associated to the House Of Reginar at all. It was through later generations that his descendants would marry descendants of Rollo, Ragnar and the norman/English crown as well as notable houses connected to the four corners of Europe. 843 in the summer time Lothair or Lambert II of Nantes got Nominoe or Nevenoe to switch sides changing alliances from Charles The Bald to Louis The Pious. Ever since then they were fallen out enemies. Then while Charles was raiding Toulouse, Nominoe raided Maine plundering that region.

Then sometime in November, 843 Charles marched as far as Rennes to persuade Breton to join him because he heard of Nominoe’s supporters starting to leave his side. It failed. The Bishops failed in 844 by sending orders to Nominoe, Lambert and Pepin demanding they swear allegiance to Charles or consequences would happen. Lambert and Pepin complied. Nominoe did not. Charles failed trying to enter the Brythonic realm by siding with defectors and lost what would be called The Battle Of Ballon. 846 Charles marched on Brittany nothing happened and came to peace with Nominoe taking oaths. Nov.1/846 Charles had Louis The Stammerer. Later Louis The Stammerer had Charles The Simple. Charles The simple had Gisela in 911. Gisela is known for marrying Rollo The Viking.

I can trace to Gisela because the two families exchanged daughters. Geoffrey I eldest son of Conan I of Brittany, Count Of Rennes descendant of Nominoe the direct heir married Hawise of Normandy daughter of Richard The Fearless another ancestor of mine. This would be an example of the two families exchanging blood and it’s not the first time and turned out it wouldn’t be the last. I carry double the maternal blood of all the houses mentioned earlier in this document from both sides of my parents. The reason this happened is the Stuart House Of Welf had a practice where the male and female bloodlines were considered equal of nobility.

My basic paternal dna test predicted medium strong even though I am a direct descendant of Niall directly descending from Marcomir I who also known as Marcomir IV of Cologne from both my parents paternally and maternally because the ancestors were known for marrying each other’s descendants time and time again as you can see in my family tree.

Number 10 in the family tree is the continuation of the line of Booker or Bowker of the ancestry of Giselbert Of Lorraine who descends from the ducal line of Chlotaire and Queen Ingund Of The Lombards. The lineage of Mansel Belyea's wife Katherine Booker is as follows in the references in chronological order in another reply or thread following this brief explanation.
