Edgiva

Eadgifu of Wessex, also known as Edgifu or Ogive, was the daughter of Edward the Elder, King of Wessex and England, and his second wife Ælfflæd. She became Queen of the West Franks by marrying Charles the Simple between 917 and 919, following the death of his first wife. Eadgifu was one of three West Saxon sisters who married Continental rulers, with her siblings Eadgyth and Eadhild marrying Otto I, Holy Roman Emperor, and Hugh the Great, respectively. She was the mother of King Louis IV of France.

After Charles was deposed in 923, Eadgifu fled to England with her son Louis, who was raised at the court of her half-brother, King Æthelstan. Louis returned to France in 936 to be crowned King, accompanied by Eadgifu. She later retired to a convent in Laon and was abducted and married by Herbert the Old, Count of Omois, in 951, which angered her son. Eadgifu died at Soissons on 26 December in an unknown year, and she is not recorded after 951.
