Research Notes:
"Hugo comes et marchio" names "patris mei Teutbaldi et matris meæ Berthe…" in a donation by charter dated 924. "Hugo et Lotharius…reges" name "patris et matris nostræ Teubaldi…et Berte" in their donation to Cluny dated 8 Mar 934. although this incorrectly implies that Ugo and Lothar were brothers instead of father and son, which is proved by other sources.
Comte de Vienne. He was elected as UGO King of Italy in 926. In 931, he deposed his uterine half-brother Lambert Marchese of Tuscany, acquiring the march of Tuscany which he granted to his brother Boso, whom he replaced in 936 by his own illegitimate son. King Ugo attempted to establish control over Rome by his third marriage, but was driven off by his stepson Alberico. He expelled Berengario d´Ivrea from his territories in 941, and abolished the March of Ivrea, but was defeated by Berengario who returned to Italy from exile in Germany in 945. Ugo was declared deposed by a diet at Milan, but Berengario allowed him to retain the title of king. 1
