Hedwige of Saxony

HUGUES, son of HUGUES “le Grand Duc des Francs & his third wife Hedwig of Germany ([940]-villa "Les Juifs", near Prasville, Eure-et-Loire 24 Oct 996, bur église de l'Abbaye royale de Saint-Denis). The Historia Francorum Senonensis names (in order) "Hugo, Otto et Heinricus" as the three sons of "Hugo Magnus dux Francorum…ex filia Odonis regis"[142]. Flodoard names "Hugonem et Oddonem clericum" as brothers of "Otto filius Hugonis", when he records that the rectores of Burgundy named them as his successors[143]. Rodulfus Glauber names "Hugoni, Parisiensis ducis filio…illius Magni Hugonis", specifying that his mother was "Ottone…sorore"[144]. His father named Richard Comte [de Normandie] as Hugues's guardian in 956, the arrangement being confirmed by Richard's betrothal to the sister of Hugues. The Annales Nivernenses record in 958 that "rex et mater sua et Ugo filius Ugonis et mater sua" attended a hearing "apud Marziacum vicum iuxta Nevernis…contra Guillelmum comitem Aquitaniæ post missa sancti Martini"[145]. He was installed as Duc des Francs/dux Francorum by Lothaire King of the West Franks in 960. By 974, Hugues had become effective leader of France under King Lothaire and headed the army which retook the kingdom of Lotharingia from Otto II King of Germany in 978[146]. He was elected HUGUES "Capet" King of France by an assembly of nobles at Senlis 29 May 987, after the death of Louis V King of France. He was consecrated at Noyon 1 Jun 987. Charles Duke of Lotharingia, the late king's uncle who opposed the accession of King Hugues, captured Laon in [May] 988, and Reims in [Aug/Sep] 989, with the help of his nephew Arnoul Archbishop of Reims, but was finally captured at Laon in 991[147]. The Historia Francorum Senonensis records the death in 998 of "Hugo rex" and his burial "in basilica beati Dyonisii martiris Parisius"[148]. The necrology of the abbey of Saint-Denis records the death "IX Kal Nov" of "Hugo rex"[149].

Hugues Le Grand married thirdly ([9 May/14 Sep] 937) HEDWIG of Germany, daughter of HEINRICH I King of Germany & his second wife Mathilde [Immedinger] ([922]-9 Jan [958 or after 965]).

"Hugues abbé de Saint-Martin" donated "son alleu de Lachy…dans le comté de Meaux", inherited from "comte Aledramnus", to Tours Saint-Martin by charter dated 14 Sep 937 which names "sa femme Havis"[96].

Rodulfus Glauber names "sororem [=Otto] Haduidem" as wife of "Hugo dux Francorum cognomento Magnus"[97]. Flodoard refers to "sororem Othonis regis Transfhenensis, filiam Heinrici" as the wife of "Hugo princeps, filius Roberti", without naming her, recording their marriage in 938[98]. Flodoard also refers to "relicta Hugonis" as "amita Lotharius rex"[99].

The necrology of the abbey of Saint-Denis records the death "V Id Jan" of "Hadhuidis comitissa"[100].

Duke Hugues & his third wife had four children:

1. Hugues (b. c.940, d. 24 October 996 at Villa Les Juifs, near Prasville, Eure-et-Loire, buried Eglise de l'Abbaye Royale de St-Denis, First King of France)

In English:

Hadwig von Sachsen, Duchess of Francia (b. 914-920, d. 959) was a daughter of German King Henry I and his second wife Mathilde (daughter of Graf Theodoric von Rheingelheim), a sister of Holy Roman Emperor Otto I, and mother of Hugh Capet, founder of the Capetian dynasty.

Hadwig was younger than her brother Otto (b. 912) and her sister Gerberga von Sachsen, but older than her brother Heinrich (b. 921). In 937/938, she married Hugh The Great, Duke of the Franks. Her son, Hugh Capet, entered the world in 940 and become King of France in 987. Her other sons were Odo (Duke of Burgundy 956-965), and Odo-Henri (Duke of Burgundy 965-1001).

Upon the death of Hugh the Great in 956, her son Hugh Capet had not yet come of age, so her brother Archbishop Bruno of Cologne took over his regency. Bruno was guardian of his nephew Lothair in 954 (son of his sister Gerberga), and was a very influential person in France.

Hedwige of Saxony (c. 910 – May 10, 965) was a daughter of Henry I the Fowler, and his wife Matilda of Ringelheim.

She was a sister of Otto I, Holy Roman Emperor (Ben M. Angel notes: he is the first German ruler that can accurately be called "Holy Roman Emperor", even though the title is posthumous by a couple centuries); Henry I, Duke of Bavaria; Gerberga of Saxony; and Bruno I, Archbishop of Cologne.

After her brother Otto I came to power, an alliance and marriage was arranged with Hugh the Great in 936. Her son, Hugh Capet, was crowned King of France in 987.
