  • Name UNKNOWN Adallinda 
    Birth Abt 0865 
    Gender Female 
    Notes 
    • Adelinda is named (as Adallinda) as the wife of Eberhard III, Graf im Nordgau in the Vita sancti Deicoli (Life of Saint Deicolus),[1] written about 965.[2]

      In this source she is his lawful wife, but repudiated and Eberhard takes as his consort a nun from Erstein Abbey instead.[1]

      This appears to be the only source that names her, but has been accepted as correct by several secondary sources; including Europäische Stammtafeln,[3] and Genealogie-Mittelalter.[4]

      Eberhard III's heir Hugo V, is likely to be her son.[3]

      Research Notes
      Adelinda's parents or family name are not mentioned in the Vita sancti Deicoli and they are unknown.

      The Rootsweb website of J Weber may have stated that she was a member of the Vermandois family, the daughter of Pepin I de Vermandois, Comte de Senlis (died about 893). However changes to Rootsweb, mean that the source for this is not clear (Page: 182), though it may be from, The Plantagenet Ancestry: Being Tables Showing Over 7,000 of the Ancestors of Elizabeth (daughter of Edward IV and Wife of Henry VII) the Heiress of the Plantagenets, by William H. Turton, which has been largely discredited particularly for earlier generations and this parentage for Adelinda isn't followed by any other sources.
