Matilda of Zutphen - Sources?

Sharon, maybe you can contact Fred Bergman.

He should see this.

Strange that in these profiles no sources mentioned. Without a source in this part of the tree, its like putting your finger in the air and saying where the wind is coming from. Someone has to clarify where he has this information from!!

Exactly :-)

Brilliant work, Marvin. You would be an excellent curator for medieval genealogy.

Thank you Marvin. So it seems there must have been a mismerge, and these must two different Ottos?
