  Research Notes:

From Wikipedia - Clotilde (died 531) :

Clotilde or Chrodechildis (died 531) was the daughter of King Clovis I of the Franks and Queen Clotilde .

In 511 she was married to the Visigothic King Amalaric . Clotilde was a Catholic , while Amalaric and his fellow-Visigoths were Arians . Clotilde refused to adopt her husband's religious practices and complained to her kin that she was persecuted for her faith.

This led to war in 531 between her brother, King Childebert I , and her husband. Amalaric was defeated and Clotilde returned to Francia with the Frankish army, but died on the journey and was buried at Paris


Clotilda married Amalaric King of the Visigoths, son of Alaric II King of the Visigoths and Theodegotha, in 511. (Amalaric King of the Visigoths was born about 502 in Ravenna, Italy and died in 531 in Barcelona, (Spain).)
