Are there two daughters, Ermentrude (France-1048 ) and Irmtrud (Carolingian-87 ), or do we need a merge?
posted by John Mueller
The second image is the same as that for his grandfather.

Andrew, I looked it over briefly; also added it to the source list. Is there something we need to add/change? Thanks.
De Courcy-149 and Carolingian-56 are not ready to be merged because: This looks like a match but the names are all over the place. Can someone do some research for confirmation?

The Stammerer-1 and Carolingian-56 appear to represent the same person because: Please merge. Merge of parents already proposed.

Franks-1216 and Carolingian-56 appear to represent the same person because: Again likely to be the same person, based on father and grandfather, birth date again is probably inaccurate.
