Research notes

✓~ standard (ES); m. GERBERGA; father of Conan I (I100096, our line). FRONTIER: his father Berengar of Rennes NOTE-ONLY. Wired 9 Oct 2026 (Tier B wave 2). ||RESEARCH-FLAG|| ⚑ FLOOR WITH A CROWN BEHIND IT (chart-chat ruling, 9 Oct 2026): this is the current ceiling of the Breton line, and the house of Rennes/Dukes of Brittany is counted on the royal-descent roll as a DUCAL connecting house only. REVISIT IF: the Rennes counts' descent from the 9th-century KINGS OF BRITTANY (Nominoe, Erispoe, Salomon - via Berengar of Rennes and the Judicael/Pascweten lines) can ever be wired on evidence that clears the house standard (annal/charter-attested persons, filiations by more than genealogical tradition). If it can, Brittany becomes a genuine CROWN candidate for the roll, the way Aragon and Osraige came in. Until then the tradition stays NOTE-ONLY above Juhel; do not wire it from secondary pedigrees.
