https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judicael_Berengar
Judicael (or Juhel, Judhel, Judhael), thus called in Breton sources, alias Berengar (or
Berengarius) his name in Frankish sources, and sometimes known as Judicael
Berengar, with both names being used together, was a Count of Rennes in the 10th
century.
There are conflicting accounts of his parentage, one popular solution making him the
son and successor of a count Berengar (sometimes identified with Berengar of
Rennes, sometimes with that man's supposed maternal grandson of the same name[1])
by a daughter of Gurvand, Duke of Brittany. However, an 11th-century collection of
Angevin genealogies describes him as the son of Pascweten, son of Alan I, King of
Brittany.
He is first documented as a Count in the year 944. He witnessed charters of Alan II,
Duke of Brittany, and on the latter's death apparently fell under the control of
Wicohen, Archbishop of Dol. Later sources report the rescue of Judicael and his
(unnamed) wife by his son Conan I. He appears to have been dead by 979, when his
son was at the court of Odo I, Count of Blois.
