Jacqueli - what are those sources saying?
That he's the son of Liudolf?

It would appear so.

Isn't the Wikipedia profile for a different person? Geni has his life as 725 - c. 787 and Wikipedia says c. 830 to 880.

This is all that I can find for a Bruno from this date:

1. BRUNO (-after 775). The Annales Laurissenses record that "Angrarii…cum Brunone" came "in pago qui dictum Bucki" in 775[111]. The Introduction to the MGH SS edition of the Vita Sanctæ Idæ cites "annalibus Corbeiensibus in bibliotheca Regia" naming "Egberti quem Brunonis Angrariorum principis filium fuisse" as husband of Ida[112]. m ---. The name of Bruno's wife is not known. Bruno & his wife had one child:

a) EKBERT (-after 834). The Vita Sanctæ Idæ names "Egbertus…orientis procures præfectus"[113]. Einhard records that "Egbertum comitem" crossed the Elbe and was put in charge of "locus super ripam Sturiæ fluminis…Esesfelth" in 809[114]. "Ekkibertus…comes" donated property "in pago…Folcfeld" to Regensburg St Emmeram by charter dated 810[115]. Einhard's Annales record "Egbertus comes" as one of the signatories of peace with the Vikings in 811[116]. The charter of Emperor Louis I dated 834 relating to the mission of "S. Anscharii" in Saxony names "Ecberto comite"[117]. m IDA, daughter of [BERNHARD & his [first/second] wife ---] ([750/80]-). The Vita Sancti Idæ names Ida as only daughter of an unnamed count[118]. The Introduction to the MGH SS edition of this source cites "annalibus Corbeiensibus in bibliotheca Regia" naming Ida as "Adalhard et Walæ soror, uxor Egberti quem Brunonis Angrariorum principis filium fuisse", commenting that she died aged 100[119]. She is not named as the sister of Adalhard in the Vita Adalhardi. Ida is named as wife of Ekbert in the Historia Translationis Sanctæ Pusinnæ[120]. Ekbert & his wife had two children:

i) WARIN (-20 Sep 856). The Historia Translationis Sanctæ Pusinnæ names Warin as the son of Ekbert & Ida[121]. The Historia Translationis Sancti Viti names "Warinus" as "adolescens monachus" at Corvey "ex nobilissimo Francorum atque Saxonum genere"[122]. Abbot of Corvey 826.

ii) [daughter . m ---.]

(a) HADUIN . The Historia Translationis Sanctæ Pusinnæ names "Venerabili Haduini" as neptis of Warin[123].

I cannot find sources for a father son Bruno pair Bruno in these dates,
Bruno MP
Gender: Male
Birth: circa 756
Saxony-Anhalt, Germany
Death: circa 813 (49-65)
Sachsen, Germany

and, as the Geni profile has no sources I'm cutting the relationship, pending someone providing them.
