    "In the second quarter of the 10th century Fulk the Red had already
    usurped the title of count, which his descendants kept for three centuries.
    He was succeeded first by his son Fulk II the Good (941 or 942 - c. 960),
    and then by Fulk's son, Geoffrey I Grisegonelle, who inaugurated a policy
    of expansion...." - Encyclopedia Britannica, 1956, 1:976. See discussion
    of "The Houses of Anjou and Gatinais" in "England Under the Angevin Kings,"
    Kate Norgate (N.Y.: Haskel House, 1969), Vol. 1, pp. 249-51, for a

    Notes:

    [dunbar_tree.FTW]

    Arles is the name of a "kingdom" formed 933-35 uniting Provence and
    Burgundy (including part of modern Switzerland). It appears that Ratbold
    II had a son, Rudolph III, who bequeathed the kingdom to Emperor Conrad II
    in 1032. It is unclear who the father of Boso, Count of Provence, is.
    {Ratbold II is presumed to be the father of Gerberga, wife of Fulk II,
    Count of Anjou - see W.H.Turton, "The Plantagenet Ancestry: (Baltimore:
    Gen. Pub. Co., 1968, p.6), where the death year for Ratbold I is given as
    928.}
