About Oda Wormsgau, Countess

In the German Wikipedia page for her mother and father:

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiltrud_von_Orl%C3%A9ans

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutpert_III._(Oberrheingau)

Oda married Walaho IV, who in 840 became the Graf im Wormsgau. The couple's descendants became the House of Salian (a Frankish noble family that existed in the Holy Roman Empire from the 900s to the 1100s).

-------------------------------

From her husband's German Wikipedia page:

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walaho_IV.

Walaho IV (also known as Werner IV, died before 891) from the House of Walahonen, was Graf im Wormsgau in 840. He was probably the progenitor of the Salian noble house.

Walaho married Oda, a daughter of Robertian family member Robert III (died before 834) Graf im Wormsgau and Worms, and Wiltrud (Waldrada) von Orleans. Oda was a sister of Guntram and Robert Le Fort. Succeeding Robert III was initially his sons Guntram (up to 837) and Robert the Strong (up to 840) before their brother-in-law Walaho takes over the title following Robert's departure into the kingdom of Western Francia.

A probable daughter was Walahos war Wiltrud (903-933) who married Count Eberhard (d. 902/903) of Niederlahngau and Ortenau. She was therefore probably the mother of Konrad Kurzbold.

m WALACHO [Walo] Graf im Wormsgau, son of --- (-before 891).]

Under Part C. of the same page, there is no indication of any specific children, but Walacho II was inferred to be a descendant.



According to her parents' German Wikipedia pages:
