Thank you! This clears up the Burgundian mess. But do you show another
daughter of Alaric II and Theodegotho, Eustere, who was another wife of
Theuderic I of Metz. eustere was included in an earlier response to my
original post, and I still have no other source for her.
Now, as to the two Theodegothos issue:
LVDP includes a Theodoric of Ostrogoths, an older(?) full brother to the
Theodegotho who married Alaric II. Theodoric of Ostrogoths is shown with a
daughter, also named Theodegotho, who also married Sigismund II, K.
Burgundians. Together, Theodegotho the younger and Sigismund II were the
parents of Wacho, K. of Longobards. Can anyone confirm this last set of
relationships?
Thank you.

I have found two women named Theodegotho: a daughter of Theodoric The

Theodoric The Great, who is married to Sigusmund of the Burgundians. Are
these, in fact, the same woman, and, if so, what is her correct
relationship
to Theodoric?
Also, I have found two separate lines of Burgundians: one headed by a
Gundiok,
and the other by a Gundioch. But I have not found a connection between the
two lines. Is there one, and, if so, where?
Thank you.

According to the genealogical charts in H. Wolfram,_The Roman Empire
and Its Germanic Peoples_(Berkeley and Los Angeles, 1997), and T.
Burns,_A History of the Ostrogoths_(Bloomington, 1984), Gundioc/
Gundiok/Gundovech are the same person. His grandson, the Burgundian
crown prince (later king) Sigismund (d. 523), married Ostrogotho-
Areagni, daughter of Theodoric I (d. 526), king of the Ostrogoths, and
Audefleda, sister of Clovis. A son of Sigismund and Ostrogotho,
Sigeric (d. 522, is shown, as is a daughter, Suavegotho, who married
Theuderic I (d. 534), king of the Franks, son of Clovis.
The eldest daughter of Theodoric I, Theodegotho, married Alaric II (d.
507), king of the Visigoths; and they had a son, Amalaric (d. 531).
Gesalec was an older half-brother of the latter, by an earlier, "not
fully valid," marriage of Alaric. The sources cited above do not
indicate another daughter, [Unk], although they are not genealogical
essays per se.
