Arles is the name of a "kingdom" formed 933-35 uniting Provence and Burgundy (including part of modern Switzerland). It appears that Ratbold II had a son, Rudolph III, who bequeathed the kingdom to Emperor Conrad II in 1032. It is unclear who the father of Boso, Count of Provence, is. {Ratbold II is presumed to be the father of Gerberga, wife of Fulk II, Count of Anjou - see W.H.Turton, "The Plantagenet Ancestry: (Baltimore: Gen.Pub.Co.,1968, p.6), where the death year for Ratbold I is given as 928.}

Ratbold married daughter le Pieux [61799] [MRIN: 551615280], daughter of William le Pieux Count of Arles [61800] and Engelberge de Provemce [61801].
