Charles Cawley's Medieval Lands, Bernard I King of Italy was the son of Pepin I King of Italy and his mistress. "Thegan's Vita Hludowici Imperatoris names "Bernhardus filius Pippini ex concubina" [Thegani Vita Hludowici Imperatoris 22, MGH SS II, p. 596]. Bernard is named only son of Pippin by Einhard [Einhard 19, p. 454]. Regino names "Bernhardus filius Pippin rex Italić" when recording his death in 818 [Reginonis Chronicon 818, MGH SS I, p. 567]. Settipani cites a litany of St Gallen which lists Bernard among Carolingians of illegitimate birth [Settipani, p. 211 footnote 142]. He was brought up at Kloster Fulda. His paternal grandfather sent him back to Italy in autumn 812, granting him the title "rex Langobardorum" in Apr 813."
