"Oddo et uxor mea Adalaicis…et filii mei Petrus Admedeus et filie mee" donated churches to Oulx by charter dated May 1057[75]. She was regent for her son in 1060 after the death of her husband, playing a significant role in support of Heinrich IV King of Germany, her son-in-law, in his disputes with the papacy.

"Adalegida cometissa filia Maginfredi marchionis et relicta quond. Oddonis idemque marchionis" donated property to the monastery at Taurini, in the presence of "domne Agnetis comitissæ, filiæ Wilelmi comitis et relictæ quondam Petri marchionis", for the souls of "Maginfredi patris, Adalrici Astensis episcopi patrui, Berthæ matris et Petri marchionis filii predictæ comitissæ Adalegidæ", by charter dated 4 Jul 1079[81]. "Adalasia comitissa cum nuru sua Agneta et filia eius Agnete" donated property to "ecclesiæ S. Mariæ…Astensis episcopatus" by charter dated 18 Jun 1089[82].

        ** from Wikipedia listing for Otto I, Count of Savoy, as of 10/29/2014
        Otto (or Othon in French, Oddone in Italian) (1010/1020 – c. 1057)[1] was count of Savoy from c.1051 until his death. Through marriage to Adelaide of Susa, he was also margrave of Turin from c.1046 until his death.

        Family
        He was a younger son of Humbert, the first Count of Savoy, and his wife Ancilla of Lenzburg. Otto became count of Savoy c.1051 after the death of his elder brother, Amadeus I of Savoy.[2]

        In 1046 he married Adelaide, heiress of Turin and Susa.[3] They had five children:
        Peter (d.1078)
        Amadeus (d.1080)
        Otto[4]
        Bertha (d.1087), wife of Henry IV of Germany
        Adelaide (d.1080), married Rudolf of Swabia

        Rule
        Through his marriage to Adelaide, Otto obtained extensive possessions in northern Italy. Thereafter, the House of Savoy concentrated their expansion efforts towards Italy instead of north of the Alps as they had done before. Savoy's lands occupied much of modern Savoy and Piedmont, although several other small states could be found between them.

        In the 1050s, Otto allowed coins to be minted at Aiguebelle. The archbishop of Vienne, Léger, who had sole right of minting in the region, complained to Pope Leo IX, so Otto forbade further coining at Aiguebelle.[5]
