[S953] Wikipedia: Robert I of France, Robert Capet I. Robert I of France (866 – June 15, 923) was the elected King of West Francia from 922 to 923. Before his election to the throne he was Count of Poitiers, Count of Paris and Marquis of Neustria and Orléans. He succeeded the overthrown Carolingian king Charles the Simple, who in 898 had succeeded Robert's brother, king Odo. Robert was born in 866 as the posthumous son of Robert the Strong, count of Anjou, and the brother of Odo, who was elected king of West Francia in 888.[1] In time West Francia evolved into the Kingdom of France;[2] and under Odo, the royal capital was fixed in Paris. Robert and Odo came from the Robertian dynasty out of which the Capetian dynasty grew.[3] In 885 Robert participated in the defence of Paris during the Viking siege of Paris.[4] He was appointed by Odo as the ruler of several counties, including the county of Paris, and abbot in commendam of many abbeys. Robert also secured the office of Dux Francorum, a military dignity of high importance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_I_of_France [S954] Wikipedia: Beatrice of Vermandois, Bwatrice Adelaide de Vermandois.

On 15 June 923 her husband Robert was killed at the Battle of Soissons shortly after which their son Hugh was offered the crown but refused.[4] Beatrice died after March 931. She married c. 890, becoming the second wife of Robert, Margrave of Neustria, who became the King of France in 922 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Béatrice_of_Vermandois
