Untitled [edit]

I suggest that the reference to Bertha as mother of Arnoldus be removed. The reference is from a genealogical webpage that does not cite its source. I'll research it myself as well but I think it should be deletedTimelinefrog (talk) 11:30, 3 February 2008 (UTC).

The birth date of 539 does not work for Bertha. First, it would make her at least fifty years of age when she had her two children Eadbold and Ethelburg. Second, Gregroy of Tours History of the Franks book IV 26 impliers that Charibert was king when he married Betha's mother. Charibert became king in 561. Moving Bertha's birth back to 562 would make her in her early twenties when she had her two children and would have her dying at the more reasonable age of 50 than 73. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daryl Kohlhoff (talkcontribs) 18:45, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
