"Duke Hugo of Worms" is copied from Catholic Encyclopedia. Such a ducal title, ca 970, sounds bogus: Worms was governed by its bishops: Burchard of Worms was a contemporary. A count palatinate, seated in the Carolingian palace perhaps: Damals war es, als der schöne Graf von Worms mit seinen Mannen...(Joseph Christian Freiherr von Zedlitz, Poems 1859). A Graf, then, not a duke. Anyone with better information? --Wetman 00:25, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "private feast day"?

His feast day is celebrated on 16 March, his private feast day on 12 October.

What is a "private feast day"? I've never heard of such. ForDorothy (talk) 00:45, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
