Narrative

Alias:<ALIA> Saint Adelaide of /Burgundy/
According to Brian Tompsett, UK genealogist
(http://www.dcs.hull.ac.uk/cgi-bin/gedlkup/n=royal?royal07442):
"The Calendar of Saints says her first husband was poisoned by his
successor. When she refused to marry the murderer's son, she was
imprisoned. King Otto the Great freed her and married her. He died and
her daughter-in-law forced Adelaide to quit the royal presence.
Throughout these troubles she remained gracious and loving and was
canonised a hundred years after her death. 16 Dec is her feast day."
