Biography from wikitree:
Name
Kunigund [1]
Cunegonde. [2]
Cunigunda of Laon [3]
Cunegonda di Laon [4]
Cunigundis [5]
Cunégonde [6]
Cuegonde/ DeSeptimania Cunigunde/ de/ Parma Kunigunde/van/ Italie?/ Cunigunde/ de/ Toulouse Cunegonde/ van Laon
Birth Year Estimation
Since she was married in 813 or 815, and woman married early a birth year of 800 would make her in her early to mid-teens at her marriage.
Parents and Ancestry
Her parents are unknown. [7]
The origin of Cunigundis is not known. Settipani suggests that she was Cunigundis, daughter of Héribert, relative of St Guillaume Comte de Toulouse in order to explain the transmission of the name Héribert into the family of Bernard King of Italy. This is highly speculative. It would also mean that Héribert was older than suggested in the document CAROLINGIAN NOBILITY, as it is unlikely that Cunigundis was born later than 800 assuming that the birth date of her son is correctly estimated at [815]. [8]
Her father might have been Heribert (780/785 - after 843, speculated as son of William of Gellone) and Heribert's unknown wife. This possibility was proposed by Christian Settipani, and supported by Cawley/FMG and the French Wikipedia. [9]
Or her father might have been Adelgis, Count of Parma, and his unknown wife. This option is supported by "Ancestral Roots of Certain American Colonists, 7th Edition", by Frederick Lewis Weis. [7]
Her parents and origins are not known, but her name recalls Cunegonde, wife of William of Gellone, and mother of Heribert, which would explain the appearance of the name among the descendants of Bernard.[6]
Marriage
About 815 [1][2] she married Bernard, King of Italy.
Cawley places the year of Cunigundis' marriage as 813, and names Bernard's parents as Pepin I, King of Italy and his mistress Chrothais. [8] Wikipedia (French) also gives 813 as the approximate date that Bernard married a certain Cunégonde. [6]
Death
Kunigunde died after 15 June 835. [7][1] Settipani refers to an act of the monastery of San Alessandro, Parma dated 15 Jun 835 which names her. [7] Her deceased husband Bernard and her son Pépin are named in the charter.[1]
Issue
They had one child, Pépin/Pippin, b. say 815, d. after 840, count (near Paris).[1][2] He became Pepin I de Vermandois, Seigneur de Péronne et de Saint-Quentin and Comte near Paris (Title given by Rösch, S. in his work "Caroli Magni Progenies", cited in FMG)
Bernard and Cunégonde were the parents of Pépin, comte dit de Péronne, au Nord de la Seine, living in 840.[6]
Regino names "Pippinum" son of "Bernhardus filius Pippin rex Italiæ"[646]. Seigneur de Péronne et de Saint Quentin[647]. Comte near Paris after 834. [7]
