Notes
She may have been a Duchess of Norway
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poppa_of_Bayeux
Poppa of Bayeux was the Christian wife or mistress[1] (perhaps more danico)[2] of the 
Viking conqueror Rollo. She was the mother of William I Longsword and grandmother 
of Richard the Fearless, who forged the Duchy of Normandy into a great fief of 
medieval France.[3] Dudo of Saint-Quentin, in his panegyric of the Norman dukes, 
describes her as the daughter of a "Count Berengar", the dominant prince of that 
region, who was captured at Bayeux by Rollo in 885 or 889.[4] This has led to 
speculation that she was the daughter of Berengar II of Neustria. Despite the 
uncertainty of her parentage, she undoubtedly was a member of the Frankish 
aristocracy.[5] A statue of Poppa stands at the Place de Gaulle in Bayeux.
