Marriage and Issue
He married Regintrude of Austrasia, daughter of Dagobert I and Nanthild. They had the following:
- Daughter of Theodo, married Godefroy, Duke of Alamannia
He also married Folchiade of Salzeburg. They had the following:
- Theodbert
- Theobald
- Tassilo
- Grimoald
- Willigard
Theodo was eventually succeeded by his four other sons, among which he divided his duchy sometime before 715.
As early as 702, Theodbert had been ruling from Salzburg and from 711 or 712, Theobald was co-reigning. It is impossible to see if this division was territorial (as with the Merovingians) or purely a co-regency (as with the later princes of Benevento and Capua). If so, Theodbert's capital was probably Salzburg and the Vita Corbiniani informs that Grimoald had his seat there. References to Theobald and the Thuringii implies perhaps a capital at Regensburg and this leaves Tassilo at Passau. All of this is educated conjecture.

Famous quotes containing the words marriage and/or issue:
“That a marriage ends is less than ideal; but all things end under heaven, and if temporality is held to be invalidating, then nothing real succeeds.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“Parents are led to believe that they must be consistent, that is, always respond to the same issue the same way. Consistency is good up to a point but your child also needs to understand context and subtlety . . . much of adult life is governed by context: what is appropriate in one setting is not appropriate in another; the way something is said may be more important than what is said. . . .”
—Stanley I. Greenspan (20th century)
