Ranulf I of Aquitaine
Ranulf I
(also
Ramnulf
,
Rannulf
, and
Ranulph
) (820–866) was a
Count of Poitiers
(from 835) and
Duke of Aquitaine
(from 852). He is considered a possible son of
Gerard, Count of Auvergne
, and Hildegard (or Matilda), daughter of
Louis the Pious
and
Ermengard
. Few details are known about Ranulf I, except that he died in 866 in
Aquitaine
from wounds received in the
Battle of Brissarthe
against the
Vikings
(in which
Robert the Strong
also died). Ranulf I is a 32x great-grandfather of
Elizabeth II
, as well as being an ancestor of many people of European descent.
