Hugh, Duke of Burgundy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hugh of Burgundy (died 952), known as the Black, was duke of Burgundy between 923 and his death. He was a member of the kinship that modern historians call the "Bosonids", related to Hugh's uncle, Boso of Provence.
He was the youngest son of duke Richard of Autun and Adelaide of Auxerre. Hugh succeeded his older brother Rudolph in Burgundy, when the later was elected King of France, as Raoul.
The possible marriages and descendants of Hugh are unknown. Hugh was succeeded by Gilbert of Chalon, his brother-in-law.
