Robert I, Count of Hesbaye
Count or duke in Hasbania / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Robert I or Rupert (697 – 758[1]), was a count or duke in the Hesbaye region. His father's name is known to be Lambert.[1]
It has been proposed that this is the same Robert who married Williswinda who founded Lorsch Abbey.[1] This Williswinda had three children:
- Count Cancor (d. 771).[1]
- Anselm (killed in battle in Roncesvalles, Spain, 778), Count Palatine.[citation needed]
- Thuringbert[1]
