| Notes |
- Some sources, e.g. Turton's "Plantagenet Ancestry," show her as a daughter of Sigebert III, King of Austrasia (RIN 3709), but there has never been a descent from the Merovingian kings documented to the satisfaction of serious genealogists, and this is among those no longer accepted.
Settipani's "La prehistoire de Capetiens" p.106 says (in French): "In the 12th century, the Chronicle of Ebbersheim affirmed that Bereswinda, niece of St. Leger of Autun, wife of the duke of Alsace Adalric Ethic, was the sister of a queen. Chronologically, the queen in question, who cannot be identified as Baldechildis, of humble Saxon origin, nor as Bilichildis, daughter of king Sigebert III, could well be Chimnechildis [wife of Sigebert III and of unkown origin]."
