21:00:16 -0800     Gordon Fisher <gfisher@SHENTEL.NET>on 6 Fe Feb 1997 presentsan ancestry for William the Conquerer.One line of thatancestry was a descent frfrom Charlemagne toPoppa, wife of
Rollo,Duke of Normandy.  The line went:  (33)POPA; (66) PEPIN;  (132)PEPIN II; (264) BERNARD, King of Italy;(528) PEPIN I, King ofLombardy.  Next would be Charlelemagne.Most ancestries for Poppa,
wife of Rollo, list Beranger,Count ofBayeaux as her fatherher, and do not identify her motheror anyfurther ancestry for Beranger.  This includesMoriarty,PlPlantagenet Ancestry, p. 11; Weis,
Ancestral Roots[121E-18];Winkhaus, "Normandie," p. 133; EuropaiischeStammtafeln, ii, 79;Turton, Plantagenet Ancestry, p. 6; Stuart,Royalty forCommoners [166-35]5]; Joannis & Saint-Jouan, i, 4. ESii,
75 (rev. in III(1)) suggests an ancestry for Poppa'smomother:            Erispoe, Duke ofBrittany                               ?|Gurvand, Duke of Brittany = N.N.
| Beranger, Count of Bayeux =N.N. |                                Rollo = PoppaThis was theline I listed in my earlier submission of anancancestry forWilliam the Conquerer.     Moriarty,
Plantagenet Ancestry, p.226 reports aspeculativeive ancestry for Poppa based on asuggestion by theBelgian, J. Dhoudt: Bernard, King of Italy| Pepin II of Peronne                                    
    |Gui, Count of SeSenlis = N.N. ?|Rollo = PoppaThis lis line, which Moriarty did not incorporate,would continue,of course, as a line to Charlemagne froom Poppa'smother.     I would be curious to
know the source(s) for GordonFisher's line.--Alan B. n B. Wilsonabwilson@uclink2.berkeley.edu
