• Notes

  "Henry [or Heinrich, or Henri] was the leading military commander of the last years of the Carolingian Empire. He was commander-in-chief under Kings Louis the Younger and Charles the Fat." "Henry is described in the sources as a Saxon, Frank or Thuringian. His title is given variously as count, margrave or duke. The territory he governed is described variously in the sources as Francia, Neustria or Austrasia, perhaps indicating that his military command covered most of the north of the empire from the Breton March in the west to Frisia and Saxony in the east." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry,_Margrave_of_the_Franks
