The Ancestry and Life of Godfey of Bouillon (1947)-p10; lists Sigebert de verdun b. abt 963 and Kunigund of Provence as parents of Godfrey I de verdun, Duke of Lorraine; Kunigund's parents listed as Boso de Provence King of Provence and Irmingard Princess of Italy;The Crusader Kingdom of Jerusalem lists different parents, namely Godfrey the Captive who married Mathilda of Saxony; p6: Cawley's Medieval Lands lists Sigebert's parents as Gottfried I and Mathilde.

The most current research has placed Sigebert with parents Gottfried "der Gefangene" and Mathilde This is the lineage this file has adopted.

The Emperor Otto I granted the county of Verdun to Godfrey the Captive at some time between 944 and 951; Godfrey died after 997, and his sons came to acquire important dignities and possessions in Lotharingia; The eldest Frederick died 1022, inherited the county of Verdun on his fatther's death;

CONFLICT: Spouse> The latest research from Cawley's Medieval Lands (Lotharingian) indicates that Herman had two wives, each having three children. Schwennicke's 'Europaische Stamtafeln' vol 8 table 98a indicates that there was one wife with five children. The second conflict is with Herman's children. Cawley indicates that Hermann Jr. died as a young child. While Schwennicke indicates that he was married and had posterity.

CORRECTION: Cawley's lineage has been implimented for the wives and children. Schwennicke's lineage has been adopted for the lineage of Herman Jr.

PARTIAL REOLUTION OF CONFLICT: . The parentage of Hermann I Graf von Calvelage was shown in vol 8 table 98 as part of the family of Hemann Count of Eename. He is not shown and does not tie into the family of Hermann von Eenham Graf von Verdun.See Schwennicke vol 17 table 129. http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/LOTHARINGIAN%20(LOWER)%20NOBILITY.htmToc327808756
