Guille/Wille vs. Willa

Legg inn av Dana S. Leslie » 25 aug 2007 21:06:43

Leo's database includes a Guille/Wille who was half-sister to Louis III The
Blind, Emperor, and wife to Rudolf I, King of Upper Burgundy. It also
includes a Willa who was one of the many wives/partners of Hugh of Arles,
King of Italy. According to Wikipedia's articles on Louis The Blind and Hugh
of Arles, these two women would appear to be the same person. Any
elucidation would be appreciated.

This is one and the same Willa, married twice, but it is not certain she was
a half-sister to Emperor Louis III since the connection (apparently through
his father's first marriage to an unknown woman whom Boso murdered shortly
before taking up with the Carolingian mother of Louis) is a matter of
deduction from other relationships, and not stated in any source.
