  BERTHOLD, son of BERTHOLD I "the Bearded" Duke of Carinthia & his first wife Richwara of Swabia [Babenberg] ([1050]-12 Apr 1111, bur St Peter im Schwarzwald). The Genealogia Zaringorum names "Berchtoldus" son of "Berchtoldus Cum-barba", referring to him first among the brothers, specifying that he was buried at St Peter in 1111[630]. The Gesta Friderici of Otto of Freising records that "Berhtolfus de castro Zaringen" usurped the duchy of Swabia after his father-in-law died[631], although this does not appear to have happened until after the death of his brother-in-law. Berthold took over the rights and estates of his brother-in-law Berthold von Rheinfelden in Swabia and Burgundy on the latter's death in 1090[632]. He was installed as BERTHOLD II Duke of Swabia in 1092 by Emperor Heinrich IV. He was unable to obtain effective control and in 1098 renounced his claims to Swabia[633] in favour of Friedrich [I] von Staufen, although he retained the title of duke and was enfeoffed with imperial estates in and around Zürich[634]. Mayer says that Berthold II retained "both the Reichsvogtei in Zürich and the title duke"[635]. He was installed in 1092 as BERTHOLD II Duke of Carinthia, in opposition to Duke Heinrich II [Eppenstein]. Together with Duke Welf IV, he organised an oath of peace at Ulm in 1093, valid for Swabia and later extended to Bavaria, to strengthen opposition to the Salian monarchy[636]. He founded Kloster St Peter in Schwarzwald in 1093. He adopted the title Herzog von Zähringen from 1100, named after his family castle. The Gesta Friderici of Otto of Freising comments that Berthold held "the empty title of duke" without the substance[637]. The necrology of St Peter im Schwarzwald records the death "II Id Apr" of "Berchtoldus 2 dux de Zaeringen qui primus huius loci fundator extitit 1111"[638].
  
  m ([1177/79]) AGNES von Rheinfelden, daughter of RUDOLF von Rheinfelden Duke of Swabia [later King of Germany] & his second wife Adelaide de Savoie (-19 Dec 1111). The Genealogia Zaringorum names "Agnes filia regis Rudolfi Arulacensis" wife of "Berchtoldus", specifying that she was buried with her husband at St Peter in 1111[639]. The Annales of Berthold record the marriage in 1079 of "Berhtoldus marchio, ducis Berhtoldi filius, adolescens" and "Agnetem, Roudolfi regis filiam"[640]. The Gesta Friderici of Otto of Freising records that "Berhtolfus de castro Zaringen" married "Radolfi filia" but does not name her[641]. The necrology of St Peter im Schwarzwald records the death "XIV Kal Jan" of "Agnes uxor ducis Berchtoldi et filia Ruodolfi regis de Arle"[642].

The Genealogia Zaringorum names "Agnes filia regis Rudolfi Arulacensis" wife of "Berchtoldus", specifying that she was buried with her husband at St Peter in 1111[216]. The Annales of Berthold record the marriage in 1079 of "Berhtoldus marchio, ducis Berhtoldi filius, adolescens" and "Agnetem, Roudolfi regis filiam"[217]. The Gesta Friderici of Otto of Freising records that "Berhtolfus de castro Zaringen" married "Radolfi filia" but does not name her[218]. The necrology of St Peter im Schwarzwald records the death "XIV Kal Jan" of "Agnes uxor ducis Berchtoldi et filia Ruodolfi regis de Arle"[219]. Herzog Berthold & his wife had nine children: 1. BERTHOLD (-killed in battle near Molsheim 19 Feb 1122, bur St Peter im Schwarzwald). The Genealogia Zaringorum names "Berchtoldus…et Conradus" as sons of "Berchtoldus", specifying that Berthold was the older son, his death in battle at Molsheim in Alsace against "comite Hugone de Tagsburg", and burial at St Peter in 1122[220]. The documents dated Feb 1111 relating to the coronation of Heinrich V King of Germany as emperor name "Fridericum filium sororis suæ, marchionem Engilbertum, marchionem Thiebaldus, comitem Hermannum, Fridericum palatinum comitem de Saxonia, Berlingarium de Bavaria, Godefridum comitem, Fridericum Saxonum, Albertum cancellarium, Cononem fratri Berengarii, Sigebot de Bavaria, Henricum ducem Carinthie, Bertoldum filium ducis Bertoldi" as the emperor's guarantors[221]. He succeeded his father in 1111 as BERTHOLD III Herzog von Zähringen. Vogt of St Georgen 1114. He founded the market at Freiburg im Breisgau by charter dated 1120[222]. The necrology of St Peter im Schwarzwald records the death "XI Kal Mar" of "Berchtoldus 3 dux de Zaeringen"[223]. Europäische Stammtafeln[224] records the death of Duke Berthold III on "3 Dec". However, the necrology of St Peter im Schwarzwald assigns this date to Duke Berthold V. m as her first husband, SOPHIE of Bavaria, daughter of HEINRICH IX "dem Schwarzen" Duke of Bavaria [Welf] & his wife Wulfhild of Saxony (-10 Jul before 1147). The Historia Welforum names (in order) "Iuditham, Sophiam, Mahtildem, Wulfildem" as the four daughters of "Heinricus dux ex Wulfilde", specifying that Sophie married firstly "Bertoldus dux de Zaringen" and secondly "Leopaldus marchio de Stira"[225]. The Annalista Saxo names "Heinricum inclitum ducem Saxonie et Bawarie et Welfonem et quatuor filias" as children of Duke Heinrich & his wife Wulfhild, specifying that Sophie (named second in the list of daughters) married firstly "Bertoldus dux de Zaringe" and secondly "marchio Liuppoldus de Stire"[226]. The Genealogia Zaringorum names "Sophya soror Heinrici ducis Saxonie" as wife of "Berchtoldus", specifying that they were childless and that she married secondly "comiti de Stire"[227]. She married secondly ([1122/23]) Leopold “der Starke” Markgraf of Styria. The necrology of Admunt records the death "VI Id Jul" of "Sophya ex marchionissa cv"[228]. The necrology of Weingarten records the death "V Id Jul" of "Suophia com de Stira hic sepulta"[229]. 2. [BERTHOLD] (-3 May ----). The Genealogia Zaringorum names "Berchtoldus…et Rudolfus" as brothers of "Conradus", specifying that they were "in adolescentia defuncti" and buried in the same tomb as Konrad[230]. It appears that "Berchtoldus" was a different brother from "Berchtoldus dux", unless the latter was younger than is otherwise indicated above when he died. If this is a different brother, it is possible that the name is an error, as this would be the only example in this family of two brothers being given the same first name. 3. KONRAD ([1095]-8 Jan 1152, bur St Peter im Schwarzwald). The Genealogia Zaringorum names "Berchtoldus…et Conradus" as sons of "Berchtoldus"[231]. He succeeded his brother in 1122 as KONRAD I Herzog von Zähringen. - see below. 4. RUDOLF (-[11 Nov/Dec] 1111). The Genealogia Zaringorum names "Berchtoldus…et Rudolfus" brothers of "Conradus", specifying that they were "in adolescentia defuncti" and buried in the same tomb as Konrad[232]. 5. [LIUTGARD (-9 Aug ----). The necrology of St Peter im Schwarzwald records the death "V Id Aug" of "Lutgart filia ducis Berchtoldi"[233]. Presumably this refers to an otherwise unrecorded child who died young. She may have been the daughter either of Duke Berthold II or of Duke Berthold IV. It is slightly more probable that Duke Berthold II was the father as he is the only duke referred to in other entries in the necrology without a number, presumably being considered by the compiler as not requiring a clarifying qualification as he was the founder of the monastery and therefore in his eyes the most important of the dukes.] 6. LIUTGARD (-25 Mar ----). The Annales Sindelfingenses name "sorori suæ [=comes Albertus Axinbart, residens in castro Sindolphingen] Uotæ", identified as Adalbert [II] Graf von Calw, as mother of "Uotam [uxorem Welphoni de Spoleto] et Lutgardam"[234]. This document appears garbled, considering the following source. The necrology of St Peter im Schwarzwald records the death "VIII Kal Apr" of "Liugart com soror ducis"[235]. Although this entry is cryptic, the only ducal family recorded in the other entries was that of Zähringen. On the basis of the information currently available, Liutgard sister of Duke Konrad I is the only member of the family with this name. The primary source which confirms her marriage more precisely has not yet been identified. m GOTTFRIED [I] Graf von Calw, son of ADALBERT [II] Graf von Calw & his wife Wiltrudis of Upper Lotharingia (-6 Feb 1131). He was installed in 1113 as Pfalzgraf von Lothringen [am Rhein]. 7. AGNES . The Relatio Piis Operibus Ottonis Episcopi Bambergensis names "Agnate palatina comitissa", implying that she was sister of "Chuno dux"[236]. This is confirmed by the Gesta Friderici of Otto of Freising which names her son "Gwillehelmus…puer…ex parte patris consanguineus, Conradi vero ducis sororis filius"[237]. m ([1107]) GUILLAUME II Comte Palatin de Bourgogne et Comte de Mâcon, son of RENAUD II Comte Palatin de Bourgogne & his wife Regina von Oltigen ([1085]-murdered after 3 Jan 1125). 8. PETRISSA von Zähringen (-[1115]). Her parentage and marriage are confirmed by a charter dated to [1115] which records that "domina Petrissa, filia ducis Bertholdi" donated "predium…apud Volpach", by the hands of "viri sui comitis…Friderici de Phirrith"[238]. m (before 12 Apr 1111) FREDERIC Comte de Ferrette, son of THIERRY de Mousson & his wife Ermentrude de Bourgogne [Comté] ([1080]-19 Jul [1160], bur Oelenberg). He subscribed an act in 1111 with his father-in-law[239]. 9. JUDITH (-5 Aug ----). Ortlieb's Chronicon of Zwiefalten names "Iudintæ filiæ Berhtolfi ducis de Zaringen natæ" in a list of those who became nuns at Zwiefalten[240]. The primary source which confirms her marriage has not yet been identified. m ULRICH [II] Graf von Gammertingen, son of ULRICH [I] Graf von Gammertingen & his wife Adelheid von Dillingen (-12 Jun [1144/50]). Vogt von St Gallen 1120.
