At the limits of documented history, Gauslin of Maine is my 32nd x great-grand-father. Information is sparse because few records still exist.
There are no records showing when or where he was born, but since his son married around the year 800, I can estimate Gauslin was born no earlier than 760 AD. No records indicate who his parents were.
Titles
Gauslin was the Count of Maine1, but no records state when he gained this title.
Family
He married a woman called Adeltrudis1, or Adeltrude, who may have been from Anjou, but no clear records exist to indicate who her family was.
Together they had two sons1:
- Rorrick/Rorico/Rorgo
- Gausbert
Death
There is no information on where or how he died, or where they buried him.
Lineage
He is my 32nd x great-grandfather.
