https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welf_I
Welf I or Welfo (died before 876) was a Swabian nobleman. He was a member of the 
Elder House of Welf.

Welf was probably a son of Conrad I of Auxerre, and seems to have taken over his 
father's offices in Swabia, namely: count of Alpgau, count of Linzgau, and possibly 
count of Argengau. However, when Conrad and his other sons changed allegiance 
from King Louis the German to King Charles the Bald in 859, Welf disappears from the 
historical record. It is assumed that he fell out of favor with King Louis and lost his 
offices; the Swabian branch of the Elder Welfs was not mentioned again until Rudolf 
II, Count of Altdorf, who died around 990 and was — according to legend — a 
descendant of Welf.
