Notes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gebhard,_Count_of_the_Lahngau
Gebhard (died 879) was a mid-9th-century count in the Lahngau and the first 
documented ancestor of the dynasty later known as the Conradines. He was a 
"leading man of the [East] Franks" and a brother-in-law of Ernest, margrave of the 
Bavarian Nordgau. Gebhard may be a son of Odo I, Count of Orléans, if identical with 
Udo the Elder, count in the Lahngau from 821 to 826.

In 838, he allied with Poppo of Grapfeld and Otgar, Archbishop of Mainz, against the 
rebellious Louis the German and in favour of the emperor Louis the Pious.

He was the father of
Udo, count in the Lahngau
Waldo, abbot of St. Maximin's at Trier
Bertulf, Bishop of Trier
Berengar, count in the Hessengau

who all rose to prominent positions in West Francia.
