2. GAITELGRIMA di Salerno ([before 1032]-after Jan 1087). Amatus records that "Guaimar" [Guaimar IV Prince of Salerno] gave Drogo his daughter in marriage "with a very grand dowry" after his succession[1001]. Amatus records that Prince Guaimar gave "Count Drogo's [daughter]" to "Robert brother of Count Richard", the editor of the edition consulted speculating that "daughter" must be an error for "widow"[1002]. "Domina Gaytelgrima comitissa filia…Robberti ducis" donated property to the monastery of La Trinità at Cava for the souls of "suprascripti domini Robberti et…domini Drogonis et domini Affridi comitum qui fuerunt viri sui" by charter dated Jan 1087[1003], although the parentage attributed to her in this document is presumably an error. It is also curious that the document omits any reference to the donor's second husband. This copy of the document appears to be defective as another copy records that "dominæ Gaytelgrimæ comitissæ filiæ bonæ recordationis domini Guaimarii…principis et ducis" donated property for the souls of "domini Drogonis et domini Roberti et domini Alfredi comitum qui fuerunt viri sui" and for the souls of "Purpure genitricis suæ et…Ricardi filii sui qui de ipso Roberto comite marito suo primogenitum habuit"[1004].

m firstly (1046) as his second wife, DROGO de Hauteville Conte di Apulia, son of TANCRED de Hauteville & his first wife Moriella --- (-murdered castle of Monte Ilaro 10 Aug 1051, bur Monastery of Santissima Trinità, Venosa). He was invested as "Dux et magister Italiae comesque Normannorum totius Apuliae et Calabriae" by Emperor Heinrich III in 1047. He received Benevento from Emperor Heinrich III in 1047, jointly with Rainulf Conte di Aversa, after the latter confiscated it from citizens who had refused to open its gates to him but the Beneventans invited Pope Leo IX to take over their town.

m secondly ([end 1051/May 1052]) ROBERTO di Lucera Conte di Gargano, son of ASCLETTIN di Aversa & his wife ---.

m thirdly AFFRED comte, son of --- (-before Sep 1081). Stasser suggests that "Affred comte de Sarno", third husband of Gaitelgrima, was the same person as"Asfred surnommé Buterellus, frère de Robert de Torpo seigneur de Lacedonia" who was named in a charter dated Nov 1081 under which this Robert de Torpo donated property to Cava abbey[1005]. Stasser mentions that Gaitelgrima had one son "Richard comte de Sarno" by her third marriage, who was named in Sep 1081 and Sep 1111, who died before Oct 1114 and was buried at Cava[1006]. He also records that "son petit-fils Richard II de Sarno" is called "ortus ex genere nortmannorum" in a charter[1007].
