Robert did not claim the crown on his brother's death in 898,
but recognized the Carolingian king, Charles III; Robert
continued to defend
northern France from Norman attacks as "duke of the Franks";
about 921 he gathered support for his claim, and drove Charles
into Lorraine;
06-29-922 he was crowned at Rheims and the next year faced
Charles' attempt to oust him, during which "in a stubborn and
sanguinary battle near Soissons, Robert was killed, according
to one tradition, in single combat with his rival."
"Ancestral Roots..." (Balt., 1992) 48-18 gives Aelis as first
wife of Robert I, but other sources state that Beatrix of
Vermandois is the first.
