Ansegisel (c. 602 or 610 – murdered before 679 or 662) was the younger son of Saint Arnulf, bishop of Metz.[1]

Life

He served King Sigebert III of Austrasia (634–656) as domesticus. He was killed sometime before 679, slain in a feud by his enemy Gundewin (also spelt Gundoin). Through his son Pepin, Ansegisel's descendants would eventually become Frankish kings and rule over the Carolingian Empire.

Marriage and issue

He was married to Begga, the daughter of Pepin the Elder,[2] sometime after 639. They had the following children:

  • Pepin the Middle (635 or 640 – December 16, 714), who would later become Mayor of the Palace of Austrasia
  • Clotilda of Herstal (650–699), married King Theuderic III of Neustria
