Waldra became the wife of Lothar II in AD 862, but was pursued by the Pope to have them separated, accused of having too much power over the King and was thought to be a witch.
See the nicely historical article which challenges us to create a Wikipedia article for her at < http://www.historymatters.group.shef.ac.uk/erased-history-queen-waldrada
There is a page in German at < https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waldrada
, however the English Wikipedia only has a redirect to Lothar.
Anyone game for creating the biography and posting a link to it at the historymatters group?
Fae
ok there your go https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waldrada_of_Wormsgau
rough translation of italian version needs polish and leaning toward OR.
