Princess of France. Queen of Wessex and England. Baldwin was her second
husband.
Helm: Judith, daughter of Charles the Bald; married Ethelwulf 1 Oct.
856
when she was about 12 years old. Married (2) in 858 Ethelbald, son of
Ethelwulf. Ethelbald died in 860 and Judith was "packed off back to
France."
"There she was visited by Baldwin the "Iron-Arm", later count of
Flanders, and
helped by her brother, Judith eloped with Baldwin and fled to Rome. Her
furious
father persuaded the French bishops to excommnicate her lover, but the
Pope,
Nicholas I, was more sympathetic. In the end the king gave way--but he
refused
to attend the wedding! Thirty years later one of Alfred's daughters,
Aelfthryth, married the son of Judith and Baldwin."
