May 961: appears with her husband Boso and sons Guillaume and Roubaud in an act at Arles [Ref: HenryII const001 5/29/2012]

kinswoman of Charles Constantine of Vienna [Ref: Moriarty Plantagenet p27]

either daughter or sister of Charles Constantine of Vienna. Chronology strongly suggests daughter instead of sister [Ref: Settipani LGA p5]

conjectured father (improbable) Charles "Constantine"; conjectured mother (improbable) Thiberge dau of Garnier count of Troyes. This is an onomastic conjecture, based on the fact that the female name Constance (rare at the time) is similar to the male name Constantine. However, although the proposed connection is geographically and chronologically possible, there is no direct evidence which would tie Constance to the family of Charles "Constantine", and assuming that a woman was given a variation of her father's name is a very weak basis for such a conjecture. Even more important, "Constantine" was a nickname given to count Charles of Vienne by the chronicler Flodoard, who was prone to giving such nicknames to people with common names, and the name "Constantine" is not verified by any source independent of Flodoard. [Ref: HenryII const001 5/29/2012]

For Constantia, I have already treated of her family in Nos Ancetres de l'Antiquite. To sum up : The name Constantia does not appear in comital aristocracy before this woman, a countess of Arles, in Provence. It is so very suggestive that at the time of her birth, the chief of the regnant family in Provence was named Charles Constantine. Moreover, the granddaughter of this Constantia, the queen Constantia, have attested relationship with kindred of Charles Constantine. The conclusion that Constantia was the daughter (or sister) of Constantine was made independently by M. Chaume, J. Berge and J.-P. Poly. Charles Constantine is the son of an emperor, and was named after the first occidental (frankish) emperor, Charlemagne, and the first oriental (Byzantine) emperor, Constantine the Great. He claimed evidently descent from both frankish and byzantine imperial ancestry. Precisely, we know that sometime before 911, the byzantine emperor Leon VI had given his only daughter to a frankish prince, cousin of Bertha of Tuscia and misfortuned. That is far good for the frankish emperor Louis III, second cousin of Bertha, blinked in 905, father of Charles Constantine. Fine analysis has showed that chronology fit very well. So, on both cases, no certitude, but good presomptions. [Ref: Christian Settipani SGM 12/6/1998]
