Otto's Mother (Oda Billung) has a birth date after Sons !!!

Suggest You correct to "Abt 806" as most researchers have recorded.

Count in Saxony-1 and Liudolfing-6 appear to represent the same person because: Same name, father of same woman, Oda, wife of Zwentibold

I propose we change the CLN to "von Sachsen" (same as his father, Liudolf) and remove the link to the house of Wettin. If any other profile managers object, please update the bio to provide a stronger link to justify the link to Wettin. I'll wait a few days for response, and if no objections, I'll go ahead and make the change.

I agree, the Wettin name seems to come significantly later. I could not find any sources easily at hand that give dates for the house of Wettin (even its origins) until more than a century later.

The Wettin were a totally different family who ruled Saxony during a later period and not appropriate for this profile. Suggest that von Sachsen is a better CLN
