PEPIN of Vermandois

HUSBAND:
PEPIN of Vermandois. (Pepin II). Count of Vermandois, the first count of Vermandois. Lord of Senlis, Peronne, and Saint Quentin.
Born about 815; son of BERNARD, King of Italy, and Cunigunda (Kinugunde). Pepin first appears in 834 as a count to the north of the Seine and then appears as same again in 840. In that year, he supported Lothair I against Louis the Pious. He died about 840.

WIFE:
?
Pepin's wife is unknown, but his heir inherited much Nibelungid territory and so historian K. F. Werner hypothesised a marriage to a daughter of Theodoric Nibelung. However, it is also said that he married ERMENGARDE of Bar.
