   Note: A. MARKGRAFEN der NORDMARK DIETRICH, son of --- (-985). Markgraf über den Gau der Heveller [Nordmark] 968/981. The Annalista Saxo records that "Teoderici ducis et marchionis" was deprived of the dignity in favour of Lothar [III] Graf von Walbeck after the Slavs destroyed the churches of "Branneburch et Havelbergan" and relapsed into paganism[2]. He was deposed in 983. The necrology of Fulda records the death in 985 of "Deiterih marchio"[3]. m ---. The name of Dietrich's wife is not known. Markgraf Dietrich & his wife had five children: 1. ODA (-1023). Thietmar records Mieszko's marriage to "Markgraf Dietrich's daughter…Oda", specifying that she was a nun at the convent of Calbe and married "without the approval of the church"[4]. After her husband's death, her stepson expelled her and her children from Poland[5]. m ([977/78]) as his [ninth] wife, MIESZKO I Prince of Poland, son of ZIEMOMYSŁ of Poland & his wife [Gorka ---] ([922]-25 May 992[6]). 2. MATHILDE (-after 995). Thietmar names "the nun Mathilde, daughter of Markgraf Dietrich" and records her marriage to "a certain Slav named Przibislaw"[7]. After her husband died, she was abbess of St Laurentius at Magdeburg[8]. m (before 983) PRIBISLAW von Brandenburg, son of --- (-killed in battle 28 Dec 994). 3. OTHELHILDA (-1020). The Annales Quedlinburgenses record the death in 1020 of "Othellulda marchionis Thiedrici filia" as a nun at Quedlinburg[9]. 4. THIETBURGA . The parentage of the wife of Graf Dedo is deduced from her brother Bernhard being described as avunculus of her son, although she is not named in this passage[10]. Thietmar is more explicit, stating that Dedo married "Markgraf Dietrich's daughter, Thiedburga"[11]. m (before 985) DEDO Graf von Merseburg, son of DIETRICH [Theodericus] [Graf im Hassegau] [Wettin] & his wife --- (-killed in battle near Mose bei Wolmirstedt 13 Nov 1009). 5. BERNHARD (-[1044/51]). "Bernhardo" is named as son of "Teoderici ducis et marchionis" in the Annalista Saxo, which also specifies that he was avunculus of Dietrich Graf von Merseburg[12]. He was appointed as BERNHARD Markgraf der Nordmark in 1009. m [firstly] ---. The name and origin of Bernhard´s [first] wife is not known. [m secondly or Mistress (1):] ---, a Slav. The Annales of Lambert von Hersfeld record in 1057 “Otto frater Wilhehelmi marchionis, sed matrimonio impari, matre...Slavia”[13]. It is not clear from this passage whether Otto´s mother was the second wife or the mistress of Bernhard. Baumgarten states that the wife of Markgraf Bernhard was --- Vladimirovna, illegitimate daughter of Vladimir Sviatoslavich "Velikiy/the Great" Grand Prince of Kiev & his mistress ---. He cites a single German secondary source, dated to 1722, but this in fact makes no mention of Bernhard´s wife[14]. The authority for his statement is therefore unknown and it is preferable to assume that it is incorrect until further information comes to light. If Baumgarten is correct, this person could have been the unknown second wife/mistress of Bernhard who is described as “Slavia” by Lambert von Hersfeld. As the birth of Bernhard´s son by his second wife/mistress can be dated to [1040], this daughter would have been one of the youngest children of Vladimir (who died in 1015) if this is the correct parentage for Bernhard´s wife/mistress. Markgraf Bernhard & his [first] wife had [five] children:

   Note: Dietrich von Haldensleben , also Theoderich († August 25, 985 ) was Count in Schwabengau , from 956 in North Thuringia , from 965 to 983 Margrave of North Mark and from 966 Count in Derlingau . Due to his lands and titles, he officially held the title of "Dux" from 968 , very powerful in the eastern part of the empire and is considered the progenitor of the Saxon noble family of Haldensleben . life With Dietrich, the von Haldensleben family, later named after their ancestral seat , becomes historically tangible, which was wealthy in northern Thuringia, west of today's Magdeburg and in Derlingau, east of Braunschweig . In 953, Dietrich proved to be a loyal general of King Otto I in the Liudolfinian Rebellion . He later appeared as a leader in the fight against the Elbe Slavs and as a count in northern Thuringia. In the reorganization of the dominions after the death of Margrave Geros in 965, he received the Saxon Nordmark. Together with Archbishop Adalbert of Magdeburgin 979 he organized the beheading of his competitor , Count Gero von Alsleben . According to Thietmar von Merseburg and later Saxon historians , Dietrich did not do justice to his task of further pacifying the areas won under Otto I by the Slavic Lutici and Heveller . Ultimately, he was not up to the task and his greed provoked the Lutica uprising of 983 , which broke down German-Saxon rule between the Elbe and the Oder . That this led to his deposition, 983, like Adam von Bremen and the Annalista Saxoreport is unlikely. He took part as a general in the Saxon victory at the Tangiers, and in the German succession dispute of 984 he was one of the opponents of Duke Heinrich of Bavaria . According to the Quedlinburg Annals , Dietrich died in 985. Marriage and Descendants Dietrich was married to a daughter of Count Lothar von Walbeck. children were Bernhard von Haldensleben , Margrave of the Nordmark, since 1009 Oda , married the Polish duke Mieszko I ; Mathilda , married the Slav prince Pribislaw ; then abbess Othelhulda, nun in Quedlinburg 1020 Thietburga von Haldensleben, married Count Dedo I von Wettin
