The exact numbers are not important - the point is that just about
everyone with Western European ancestors is descended from
Charlemagne.

BA: All the more reason for *The Lion* Douglas Richardson to complete
his upcoming book *Charlemagne Ancestry.* It is truly needed as a
reference tool.

... reference tool.

As for reference tools not already mentioned, I would recommend
Christian Settipani, _La Préhistoire des Capétiens, 481-987, première
partie: Mérovingiens, Carolingiens et Robertiens_, (_Nouvelle histoire
généalogique de l'auguste maison de France_, 1.1, Villeneuve d'Asq:
Patrick Van Kerrebrouck, 1993), which treats all male-line Carolingian
descendants down to the 13th century; and

Karl Ferdinand Werner, "Die Nachkommen Karls des Grossen bis um das Jahr
1000 (1.-8. Generation)," in _Karl der Grosse: Lebenswerk und
Nachleben_, Gen. ed. Wolfgang Braunfels, 4 vols. (Dusseldorf, 1965-68),
vol. 4 (_Das Nachleben_, ed. Braunfels & Percy Ernst Schramm), pp.
403ff., which deals with all lines (male and female) in the crucial
early period. Not exhaustively documented and no longer fully current,
but a magnificent overview with its enormous charts.
