Biography
Charles Cawley notes that the historical existence of Boggis is uncertain. [1]
Research Notes
Birth Year Estimation
His birth year estimation has been calculated from the dates of his presumed son Eudes.
845 Charter
Grant of Aquitaine from Dagobert
Cawley notes that the charter of Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks dated 30 Jan 845 (possibly spurious, as explained in the Introduction) states that "Dagobertus rex" granted Aquitaine to "Boggiso Duci" after the death of "fratris sui Ilderici Aquitainie regis"[9]. The death of Charibert, brother of King Dagobert I, is dated to 631 from other sources (see MEROVINGIAN KINGS). This appears chronologically inconsistent with this alleged grant of Aquitaine to Boggis, assuming that the estimated date of death of his supposed son Duke Eudes is accurate as shown below. [1]
Parents
Cawley notes that the same 845 charter states that "Haribertus rex" married "Amandus Dux in Vasconia…filia suæ Giselæ" and that they were parents of "Boggiso Duci et suo fratri Bertrando", which is clearly incorrect considering that King Charibert is shown in other sources to have been no more than fourteen years old when he died. [1]
Wife
He is reported to have married Oda. Cawley notes that " The Vita Landiberto episcopi Traiectensis of Nicolas names "Oda…Bohggis Aquitanorum ducis recens defuncti vidua" as "amita" of Lambert. [1]
Children
The same 845 charter reports two children for Boggis. "The charter of Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks dated 30 Jan 845 (possibly spurious, as explained in the Introduction) names "Eudonis Aquitanie ducis et fratris sui Imitarii et eorum genitori Boggiso duci"" [1].
- Eudes, who died in 735. Duke of Aquitaine.
- Imitarius
Wikidata
Wikidata claims his date of death as 700, apparently from Itialian Wikipedia.
