  Research Notes:

From Wikipedia - Gondioc:

Gundobad , the son of Gondioc, succeeded Ricimer in 472, but abdicated after the death of his father in the following year as Gondioc was succeeded by his brother Chilperic I . After the death of Chilperic, Burgundy was divided among the sons of Gondioc, Gundobad, Chilperic II of Burgundy , Godomar and Godegisel .

From Wikipedia - Gundobad :
But Gundobad was not content with his fractured portion of Burgundy, and turned against his brothers with hope of control over all the land.
In 486 he killed Gundomar, though little is known of this encounter.
In 493 he turned his sword against Chilperic, and drowned his wife. Gundobad exiled his two daughters, Chroma becoming a nun. The other, Clotilde , was found by the men of Clovis I , King of the Franks , who sent word to Gundobad, asking Clotilde's hand in marriage. Gundobad was too afraid to decline.
