DROGO (-24 Mar 708, bur Metz, Abbaye de Saint-Arnoul[135]). The Liber Historiæ Francorum names "maioris Drocus…minoris Grimoaldus" as the two sons of "Pippino [et]…uxor nobilissima…Plectrudis", specifying that Drogo accepted "ducatum Campaniæ"[136]. "Drogo et Grimoldus" are named as sons of Pépin and his wife Plectrudis in the Gesta Fontanellensium[137]. Sigeberto's Vita Landiberto episcopi Traiectensis names "Drogo…et Grimoaldus" as sons of Pépin and "legitima sua coniunx Plictrudis", specifying that Drogo was "dux…Campanensium"[138]. Fredegar (Continuator) records that his father invested Drogo as dux in Champagne in [688/90][139], and dux of the Burgunds after 697. This is the only example so far identified of a late 7th century creation of a dux apparently assigned to govern a particular territory. The Liber Historiæ Francorum records the death of "Drocus filius Pippini"[140]. The Annales Metenses record the death of Drogo in 708 and his burial "iuxtaMettensem urbem inbasilica beati Arnulfi confessoris"[141]. The Obituaire of Saint-Arnoul de Metz includes "IX Kal Apr Drogo dux"[142]. m (after 688) ADALTRUDIS, daughter of [BERCHAR maior domus in Neustria & his wife Anstrudis]. Her origin is confirmed by the charter of "Childebertus rex Francorum" dated 14 Mar 697 which names "Drogus…socer suos…Bercharius…coniuge sui Adaltrute"[143]. On the other hand, the Annales Metenses name "Austrudem filia Warattonis quondam…maioris domus derelictam Bertarii" as wife of "Drogonem primogenitum suum [Pippini]"[144]. The Gesta Fontanellensium also names Adaltrudis, wife of Drogo, as "filia Warattonis [et] Ansfledis coniugis eius"[145], but the 697 charter is probably a more reliable source as, if it is correctly dated, it was written only a few years after the death of Berchar. Drogo & his wife had [five] children
