French Monarch. Born Frederuna von Sachsen in Goslar, Hanover, the daughter of Count Deitrich Theodoric von Ringelheim Duke of Saxony and Gisela of Lotharingia, and the sister of Beuve II, the Bishop of Chalons-sur-marne. She made a political marriage to Charles III of France in 907, and with him had at least four daughters. Apparently, the lack of an male heir motivated Charles to repudiate her. A reportedly pious woman, she did not remarry, and she had no more impact. She died about age 32 in Lorraine.
