Madre de Alberto Azzo II, margrave of Milan & 1st of Este and Adelasia Obertenghi, d'Este
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adela_of_Milan
Adela of Milan (c. 975 after 1012) was a northern Italian noblewoman. Through her marriage to Albert Azzo I, Margrave of Milan, Adela was Margravine of Milan.
Life
Adela's parents and dynasty are unknown, although it has been suggested that she was related to Lanfranc, Count of Piacenza and of Aucia (a medieval county which consisted of territory between Parma, Piacenza and Cremona). Adela first appears in the historical record in 1011, when she purchased goods from a deacon named Donninus. The following year, Adela bought 250 yokes of land from Donninus. Also in 1012 Adela granted 290 yokes of land to the church of Cremona, with the consent of her husband, and Count Lanfranc. These transactions may have been intended to protect their property from confiscation: Adela's husband Adalbert Azzo supported Arduin of Ivrea against the Emperor Henry II in the war for the Italian throne.
Marriage and children
With her husband, Adalbert Azzo, Adela had at least two children:
Albert Azzo II
