  • Notes 
    • soc.genealogy.medieval on 10 Nov 1996 (in part): Subject: Re: Will the real Boso please stand up (was Re: SAVOY) "That King Boso was the son of count Bivin [or Budwine] is proven by the contemporary "Annals Bertiniani" ("Annals of St. Bertin" in English), under the year 869, where Boso is explicitly called a son of Bivin. Boso's maternal grandfather was another Boso, an Italian count. It was this Italian Boso who was the father-in-law of Lothar II and Bivin." . . . "The confusion that has led some to make Theodoric [Thierry I "the Treasurer" (RIN 1240)] the father of Boso [King of Provence (RIN 2137)] is briefly discussed by Settipani. Here is the short version. Theodoric did have a son named Richard [RIN 3473], who has been erroneously identified by some with duke Richard of Burgundy (King Boso's brother) [i.e. RICHARD THE JUSTICIAR (RIN 1238)], and this erroneous identification has led to Boso being incorrectly called the son of Theodoric."
