  • Notes 
    • Itta was the wife of the Austrasian Mayor Pepin I. According to later Carolingian Frankish mythology, Itta was the daughter of Arnoldus, a Margrave of Schelde and Oda. Arnoldus was the son of Blithildis (suposed to be a daughter of King Chlotar I of the Franks, however he had no such daughter) and Ansbertus. Ansbertus was the son of Deuteria and another Scheldian Margrave Ansbertus Ferreolus. Ansbertus was the son of Tonantius, son of Papinilla and Tonantius Ferreolus (c420-c475). Papinilla was said to be a daughter of the Roman Emperor Avitus, and Tonantius Ferreolus said to be a grandson of the Roman general Syagrius who was kicked out of Gaul by King Clovis I of the Salian Franks.
