List of Carolingians descended from Charles Martel

This is (close to) complete listing of the male line descent from Charles Martel (676–741) for fifteen generations. He had six sons, the first generation.

I propose to add/improve respective articles about each person including citations and add here links. Especially missing/disputable one.

Otherwise this article will lose its biggest advantage - briefness. Some articles are available in French.
