di Friuli
| The
Unruochings of Unrochids, were a Frankish noble family who established
themselves in
Italy. The family is named for the first member to come to prominence,
Unruoch II of Friuli early in the 9th century. King Berengar I of Italy belonged to this family. Berengar left no male heirs, but the descendants of his daughter Gisela and Adalbert I of Ivrea including their son Berengar II of Italy, Berengar II's son Adalbert, and Adalbert's son Otto-William, Duke of Burgundy, are counted among the Unruochings.  |
