bullet  General Notes:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Himiltrude
Little is known about Himiltrude's origins. Paulus Diaconus calls her a "noble girl".[1] The appearance of her name in the fraternity books of Alemannian monasteries may suggest an affiliation with the Germanic Alemannian or Alsatian nobility,[2] while other sources make her the daughter of a Burgundian count and a granddaughter of Grimbert I, Count of Paris.[3] It is not possible, however, to extrapolate any political ramifications from Charlemagne's relationship with Himiltrude.
