a) LANDO [II] (-after [887]). The Cronica de Monasterio Sanctissimi Benedicti record that "Lando filius eius [=Lando]" succeeded his father as Count of Capua, dated to 860 by the editor of the MGH edition, but was expelled from Capua after six months by "Pandon thio suo"[1446]. Erchempert records that "Sergius magister militum" sent "duos liberos suos Gregorium magistrum militum et Cæsarium nec non et Landulfum generum suum Suessulanum" to fight "Lando…filium…Lando iunior" [Count of Capua] after his father´s death [dated to 859 by the editor of the MGH edition] but that "Cæsarium" was captured[1447]. Erchempert records that "Landulfus" captured "Guaiferium principem" [dated to 874 by the editor of the MGH edition], that he was released after appointing "filios Landonis, Landonem…et Landonulfum, cognatos suos" as pledges and left for Ravenna in exile[1448]. Erchempert records that, after the death of "Landulfus" [dated to 879 by the editor of the MGH edition], "nepotes illius" divided Capuan territories among themselves and that "Pandonolfus" took "urbem Tianensem et Casam Irlam", "Lando" took "Berelais et Suessam", "alter Lando" took "Calinum et Caiaziæ", "Atenolfus" took "castrum in Calvo", and that "Landulfum…adolescentulum Landoni filium" was consecrated as bishop[1449]. It is assumed that Lando who received "Berelais et Suessam" was Lando [II] ex-Count of Capua, son of Count Lando [I], but this is not beyond all doubt. Erchempert records that, after the accession of "Atenolfus", he was opposed by "Landone germano eius…cum ceteris fratribus" (which passage must refer to Lando [II] ex-Count of Capua, cousin of Atenolf not his brother) but that "Lando" returned to "Teanum" which he left to "Landonolfus frater suus"[1450]. [m firstly ---. No direct evidence has been found of this supposed first marriage. However, the chronology of this family suggests that [884] would have been late for Lando [II] to have married for the first time, when he was probably born in the 820s.]

  • m [secondly] ([884]%29 as her second husband, --- of Naples, widow of ---, daughter of [SERGIUS II Duke of Naples & his wife ---]. Erchempert records that "Athanasius" arranged the marriage of "neptem suam…adhuc lactantem" to "Landoni seniori, filio…Landonis" [dated to 884 by the editor of the MGH edition][1451].
