Family
Conrad I of Swabia, Duke of Swabia Son of Uncertain of Swabia and Uncertain. Born between 915 and 920 Died Aug 997 1) Notes: Conrad's identity is very confused, with multiple possible parents conjectured. What is certain is that Conrad had a brother, Count Heribert (Thietmar), and the deaths of both are recounted by Thietmar in a story alongside other relatives of Otto III of Germany, suggesting some form of connection. Known relatives (from Thietmar): Brother: Count Heribert (died 997) Nephew: Otto the son of Count Heribert, who is also described as a cousin of Thietmar. Otto married Irmgard, and their relationship was consanguineous Nephew: Gebard the son of Count Heribert, who is also described as a cousin of Thietma -- Ita of Ohningen's father is stated as Kuno of Ohningen. Recent scholarship by Hlawititschka and Wolf make the case that Kuno is the same as Conrad of Swabia. Married/ Related to: Uncertain Notes: Conrad's wife is uncertain. She is often said to be Reglint (or Richlind), daughter of Liudolf, Duke of Swabia, and thus a granddaughter of Emperor Otto I. His wife could also have been Judith, daughter of Adalbert of Marchtal.
