{Encyclopaedia Britannica, 1956 Ed., 20:33 states:} Ludolph (Liudolf) was
appointed about 850 by King Louis "the German" as margrave to defend the
`Limes Saxoniae' (a narrow strip of land on the eastern frontier) against
the Slavs. Ludolph vigorously fought the Slavs and extended the frontier
and his own influence. {-This source states he died in 866.} He was
succeeded by his son Bruno who was killed fighting the Normans in 880; the
second son, Otto the Illustrious, then succeeded and was recognized Duke of
Saxony by King Conrad I.
