Biography of Dagobert III King of the Franks 699-715

Around 699 Dagobert III King of the Franks was born to Childebert III King of the Franks (age 20).

In 715 Dagobert III King of the Franks (age 16) died.

715 Battle of Wanborough

Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. 715. This year Ina (age 45) and Ceolred fought at Wanborough;24 [possibly Wednesbury, Staffordshire [Map], Wanborough, Wiltshire [Map] or Woden's Barrow aka Adam's Grave [Map]] and King Dagobert (age 16) departed this life.

Note 24. Wothnesbeorhge, Ethelw.; Wonsdike, Malmsb.; Wonebirih, H. Hunt; Wodnesbeorh, Flor.; Wodnesbirch, M. West. There is no reason, therefore, to transfer the scene of action to Woodbridge, as some have supposed from an erroneous reading.

On 23rd April 771 [his father] Childebert III King of the Franks (age 92) died. His son Dagobert succeeded King of the Franks.
