Notes
a. Note:   The following is excerpted from a post by Stewart Baldwin, 18 Nov 1996: From: Stewart Baldwin (sbald AT auburn.campus.mci.net)
 Subject: Danish kings, 8th & 9th centuries
 Newsgroups: soc.genealogy.medieval
 Date: 1996/11/18
  Godefrid, son of Harald [AB 852], an unsuccessful claimant to the
 Danish throne in 855. He attacked Frisia in 852 [AB], and then made peace with Charles the Bald in 853 [AB]. With his kinsman Rorik (see below), he went to Denmark in 855 [AB], in an attempt to gain power there after the civil war of 854, but their attempts were unsuccessful, and they returned to their base in Dorestad. It is not clear whether this Godefrid is the same person as the Danish Viking of that name who was active in the period 882-885, married Gisla (daughter of Lothar II) in 882, was granted lands which Rorik had previously held, and was killed in 885. [See AF 882-5].
