Notes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poppo_I,_Margrave_of_Carniola
Poppo I (also Boppo; died 13 July, before 1044), Count of Weimar-Orlamünde, was
margrave of Istria from 1012 and of Carniola from 1040 to his death.
Poppo was the scion of a comital family from the Imperial Landgraviate of Thuringia.
His father was Count William II of Weimar.
He married Hadamut, the daughter of one Count Weriand, who in 1001 had received
large estates in eastern Friuli and Istria, then part of the March of Verona ruled by the
Carinthian dukes, from the hands of Emperor Otto III. Poppo thus inherited a claim to
the Istrian peninsula and began to use the margravial title. After King Henry III of
Germany had inherited the Duchy Carinthia, he in 1040 established the separate
Marches of Istria and Carniola. As his wife's mother was related to the Bavarian
Counts of Ebersberg, who held possessions in Carniola, Poppo was also appointed
Carniolan margrave.
Hadamut gave him one son, Ulric I, who succeeded his father in 1045.
