Hugh of Tours and Matfrid of Orléans…
828 CE
Hugh of Tours and Matfrid of Orléans are deposed from their respective counties at the assembly of Aachen in 828, Orléans is granted to Odo, and Bernard's brother Gaucelm receives the fiefs of Conflent and Rasez.
As Leibulf of Provence had died in the spring, his vast dominions—Narbonne, Béziers, Agde, Melgueil, Nîmes, and probably Uzès—are assigned to Bernard.
Bernard takes from this wide collection of Septimanian honores the title "Duke of Septimania".
