Source: Wikipedia - Ingund, wife of Clotaire I
Source: http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:3174654&id=I593873575 has title King of Neustria, b. abt 523, d. 584.
Per Wikipedia - Chlothar I - he was King of Soissons, succeeding Chlothar I (Clotaire I).
From Wikipedia - Chilperic I :
Chilperic I (c. 539 - September 584 ) was the king of Neustria (or Soissons ) from 561 to his death. He was one of the sons of Clotaire I , sole king of the Franks , and Aregund .
Immediately after the death of his father in 561 , he endeavoured to take possession of the whole kingdom, seized the treasure amassed in the royal town of Berny and entered Paris . His brothers, however, compelled him to divide the kingdom with them, and Soissons, together with Amiens , Arras , Cambrai , Thérouanne , Tournai , and Boulogne fell to Chilperic's share. His eldest brother Charibert received Paris , the second eldest brother Guntram received Burgundy with its capital at Orléans , and Sigebert received Austrasia . On the death of Charibert in 567 , his estates were augmented when the brothers divided Charibert's kingdom among themselves and agreed to share Paris.
Not long after his accession, however, he was at war with Sigebert, with whom he would long remain in a state of-at the very least-antipathy. Sigebert defeated him and marched to Soissons, where he defeated and imprisoned Chilperic's eldest son, Theudebert . The war flared in 567, at the death of Charibert. Chilperic immediately invaded Sigebert's new lands, but Sigbert defeated him. Chilperic later allied with Guntram against Sigebert (573 ), but Guntram changed sides and Chilperic again lost the war.
When Sigebert married Brunhilda , daughter of the Visigothic sovereign in Spain (Athanagild ), Chilperic also wished to make a brilliant marriage. He had already repudiated his first wife, Audovera , and had taken as his concubine a serving-woman called Fredegund . He accordingly dismissed Fredegund, and married Brunhilda's sister, Galswintha . But he soon tired of his new partner, and one morning Galswintha was found strangled in her bed. A few days afterwards Chilperic married Fredegund.
This murder was the cause of more long and bloody wars, interspersed with truces, between Chilperic and Sigebert. In 575 , Sigebert was assassinated by Fredegund at the very moment when he had Chilperic at his mercy. Chilperic then made war with the protector of Sigebert's wife and son, Guntram. Chilperic retrieved his position, took from Austrasia Tours and Poitiers and some places in Aquitaine , and fostered discord in the kingdom of the east during the minority of Childebert II .
In 578 , Chilperic sent an army to fight the Breton ruler Waroch of the Vannetais along the Vilaine . The Frankish army consisted of units from the Poitou , Touraine , Anjou , Maine , and Bayeux . The Baiocassenses (men from Bayeux) were Saxons and they in particular were routed by the Bretons.[1] The armies fought for three days before Waroch submitted, did homage for Vannes, sent his son as a hostage, and agreed to pay an annual tribute. He subsequently broke his oath, but Chilperic's dominion over the Bretons was relatively secure, as evidence by Venantius Fortunatus celebration of it in a poem.
He was detested by Gregory of Tours , who dubbed him as the Nero and Herod of his time (History of the Franks book vi.46): he had provoked Gregory's wrath by wresting Tours from Austrasia, seizing of ecclesiastical property, and appointing as bishops counts of the palace who were not clerics. His reign in Neustria also saw the introduction of the Byzantine punishment of eye-gouging. Yet, he was also a man of culture: he was a musician of some talent, and his verse (modeled on that of Sedulius ) is well-regarded; he reformed the Germanic alphabet; and he worked to reduce the worst effects of Salic law upon women.
It was one day in September of 584 , while returning from the chase to his royal villa of Chelles , that Chilperic was stabbed to death.
...Family
Chilperic's first marriage was to Audovera. They had four children:
His short second marriage to Galswintha produced no children.
His concubinage and subsequent marriage to Fredegund produced four more legitimate offspring:

From Wikipedia - Wacho
Wacho or Waccho was king of the Lombards before they entered Italy from an unknown date (perhaps circa 510 ) until his death in 539 . His father was Unichus. Wacho usurped the throne by assassinating (or having assassinated) his uncle, King Tato (again, probably around 510). Tato's son Ildichis fought with him and fled to the Gepids where he died.[1] Wacho had good relations with the Franks .
Wacho married three times. First, Radigunde, daughter of Bisinus , King of the Thuringi. Second, Austrigusa a Gepid possibly named after her maternal descent from Ostrogothic rulers, she was the mother of two daughters, Wisigarda married Theudebert I of Austrasia and Waldrada married firstly, Theudebald of Austrasia and secondly, Garibald I of Bavaria. Thirdly he married Silinga, a Heruli-mother of Waltari.
