Hermana de: Bovo II., Bishop of Charlons-sur-Marne
([1/18] Apr 907) FREDERUNA, sister of BOVO [II] Bishop of Châlons, daughter of --- (-10 Feb 917, bur Reims, église abbatiale de Saint-Rémi). The charter of "Karolus rex" dated "907 XIII Kal Mai" refers to "quondam nobili prosapia puellam Frederunam" who had recently become his wife[341]. The charter of "Karolus rex" dated "917 VII Kal Aug" refers to "nostra uxor Frideruna frater eius Bovo Catalannensis Antistes Ecclesiæ"[342]. Nothing definite is known about the origins of Bovo, although Flodoard refers to "Berengario Transrhenensi clerico" as "nepoti Bovonis Catalaunensis quondam episcopi" when recording his appointment as Bishop of Cambrai in 956[343]. McKitterick assumes that Frederuna was of Lotharingian origin[344]. Settipani speculates that Queen Frederuna was probably a close relation of Mathilde, second wife of Heinrich I King of Germany[345]. This could be explained if Mathilde's mother, Reginlind, was Queen Frederuna's sister, as hypothesised in the document REIMS. The charter of "Karolus rex" dated "918 IV Id Feb" refers to the death of "nostræ coniugis Friderunæ"[346], and the charter dated "918 II Id Mar" that she had died "IV Id Feb"[347]. The necrology of Reims Saint-Rémi records the death "IV Id Feb" of "Frederuna regina"[348].
Frederona (d. 917) Queen of France. Name variations: Frederuna. Died in 917; sister of Bovo, bishop of Chalons; married Charles III the Simple (879929), king of France (r. 898923).

[Four] siblings. They may have been of Danish origin and based in Frisia, if the speculation about the origin of Reginlind, wife of Theoderich, is correct, as she is referred to as "Danorum Fresonumque germine procreatam"
1. BOVO [II] (-947). Bishop of Châlons [917]. The charter of "Karolus rex" dated "917 VII Kal Aug" refers to "nostra uxor Frideruna frater eius Bovo Catalannensis Antistes Ecclesiæ"[653]. Flodoard records in 931 that [Rodulfus] rex captured Bovonem...Catalaunensem episcopum, who had deserted to Heriberto, and granted episcopatum ipsius to Miloni clerico[654]. Flodoard records in 932 that Rodulfus rex was reconciled with Bovonem episcopum and returned Catalaunense...episcopium to him[655]. Flodoard records in 947 the death of Bovo Catalaunensis episcopus and the election by sibi Catalaunenses of nobilem adolescentem clericum...Gibuinum[656].
2. [REGINLIND (-11 May ----). The wife of Theoderich is named "Reinhildam, Danorum Fresonumque germine procreatam" in the Vita Mathildis Reginæ[657]. According to Europäische Stammtafeln[658], she was Reinhild, daughter of Gotfrid the Dane & his wife Gisela [Carolingian], which is presumably a guess based on this description in the Vita Mathildis. However, the chronology for this hypothesis is not ideal. Regino records the marriage in 882 of "Gisla filia Hlotharii" and "rex Godofridus Nordmannorum"[659]. If this couple's daughter was the mother of Queen Mathilde, the latter's estimated birth date would need to be pushed forward by several years, which makes the chronology for her known descendants tight. Another possibility is that Regenhild was an otherwise unrecorded sister of Bovo Bishop of Chalons. This hypothesis would explain (1) the name Frederuna being transmitted to Reginlind's daughter, and (2) Berenger Bishop of Cambrai, recorded elsewhere as nepos of Queen Frederuna, being described as " Ottonis imperatoris proxime consanguineus" in the Gesta Episcoporum Cameracensium[660]. If this is correct, the reference to Reginlind being "Danorum Fresonumque germine procreatam" has not been explained. m ([900]%29 THEODERICH, son of --- & his wife Mathilde --- (-8 Feb 917).]
3. FREDERUNA (-10 Feb 917, bur Reims, église abbatiale de Saint-Rémi). The charter of "Karolus rex" dated "907 XIII Kal Mai" refers to "quondam nobili prosapia puellam Frederunam" who had recently become his wife[661]. The charter of "Karolus rex" dated "917 VII Kal Aug" refers to "nostra uxor Frideruna frater eius Bovo Catalannensis Antistes Ecclesiæ"[662]. Nothing definite is known about the origins of Bovo, although Flodoard refers to "Berengario Transrhenensi clerico" as "nepoti Bovonis Catalaunensis quondam episcopi" when recording his appointment as Bishop of Cambrai in 956[663]. McKitterick assumes that Frederuna was of Lotharingian origin[664]. Settipani speculates that Queen Frederuna was probably a close relation of Mathilde, second wife of Heinrich I King of Germany[665]. This could be explained if Mathilde's mother, Reginlind, was Frederuna's sister, as hypothesised above. The charter of "Karolus rex" dated "918 IV Id Feb" refers to the death of "nostræ coniugis Friderunæ"[666], and the charter dated "918 II Id Mar" that she had died "IV Id Feb"[667]. m ([1/18] Apr 907) as his first wife, CHARLES III "le Simple" King of the West Franks, son of LOUIS II "le Bègue" King of the West Franks & his second wife Adelais (posthumously 17 Sep 879-Péronne 7 Oct 929, bur Péronne, monastère de Saint-Fursy).
4. --- . m ---. One child:
a) BERENGAR (-957, bur Saint-Gereon). Bishop of Cambrai 956. Flodoard records in 956 that, after the death of Fulbertus Camaracensis episcopus, Berengario Transrhenensi clerico...nepoti Bovonis Catalaunensis quondam episcopi was ordained at Reims by Archbishop Artaud[668]. The Gesta Episcoporum Cameracensium records that "Berengarius ex nobili parentela Germaniæ ortus et Ottonis imperatoris proxime consanguineus" succeeded Fulbert as Bishop of Cambrai[669].

Theodoric of Ringelheim (872-8 Feb 916) Theodoric of Ringelheim Identifies Frederunda as a daughter and goes on back for about 5 generations. However it points to a different Frederunda Von Ringelheim "Amalrada Frederuna Billung von Ambergau"
