Pepin was Italian nobility who took sides in the War of Carolingian succession.
He is my 30 x great-grandfather.
He was born in 817 or 8181, son of King Bernard I of Italy, and his wife Cunegundis2. I don’t know where he was born, but since his father was King of Italy, it is likely he was born in Milan.
Titles
He held the title of Lord of Péronne and St-Quentin, both communes in northern France2.
Family
Pepin married2, but the name of his wife is not known. Since some of his descendants inherited land in the Vexin region, it is possible she was a relative of Nibelung, the Count of Vexin2.
Together they had five children2:
- Bernard
- Pepin
- Heribert
- Cunegundis
- An unnamed daughter who married Berengar, Count of Bayeux.
Notable events
In the War of Carolingian succession, Pepin supported Emperor Lothaire.
Death
Pepin died sometime after 8401. I do not know where, what of or where they buried him.
