Notes |
Robert I (865?-923), king of France, son of Robert the Strong and younger brother of Odo; permitted Charles III to succeed his brother but revolted 921 and was crowned king 922; his grandson was Hugh Capet.
In 922, Robert plots against the King, Charles "Le Simple", and succeeds in rallying around him a number of malcontents. On 29 June 922, Robert is elected King by a faction of the Greats (assembly of nobles). Near Soissons, on 14 June 923, the two Kings fight and Robert is killed. Robert was King of Neustrie and the West Franks from 922 to 923. Died: on 14 Jun 923 in near Soissons, Aisne, Ile-de-France, France, Robert died at the Battle of Soissons while fighting against the troops of his foe King Charles "Le Simple" and his troops of Lorraine. His successor was an in-law, Raoul, Duke de Bourgogne, Abbe de Saint-Germain-d'Auxerre. (From www/xpda/com) | |
