• Web Reference: Charles Cawley's Medieval Lands, Comtés d'Angoulême. The Chronicle of Adémar de Chabannes records that Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks installed "Vulgrimnum propinquum suum, fratrem Aldoini abbatis ex monasterio Sancti Dionisi" with "Engolisme et Petragorice" after Comte Emenon was killed (in 866), commenting that Vulgrin had been missus in Aquitaine for "Carlo magno imperatore fratre eius" and was already "senex" when appointed to Angoulême [Adémar de Chabannes III, 19, p. 137]. His parentage is confirmed by the charter dated 2 Nov 889 under which "Vulfardus" donated property to Saint-Benoît-sur-Loire for the souls of "genitoris mei Vulfardi et genetrice mea Susannane necnon et germanorum fratrum meorum Adelardo, Vulgrino, Ymo et sorore mee Hildeburga vel nepote meo Vulgrino" [Saint-Benoît-sur-Loire XXXI, p. 85].
Vulgrin married Rgelindis de Septamanie, daughter of Bernard Marquis de Septamanie y Conde de Barcelona and Dhuoda.491 (Rgelindis de Septamanie was born about 830.)
