Esiko, count of Ballenstedt - Curator needed

Locked profile. I was able to complete a merge but he lost his children.

Private User - Fixed the merge.

Thanks, Erica.

Google Translate shows this message begins with gross insults, Obviously written in Swedish to prevent most people (and most Curators) from understanding it: "Is there a Swedish-speaking curator who wants to fix the destruction of these incompetent rogues in the tree."

Continuation - which would have been FAR FAR more helpful in English and without the sneering tone: "In the middle of the 12th century, a chronicle was written about Albrekt Björn's ancestors, a chronicle based on older source material. The information in the chronicle is consistent with numerous indications found in contemporary sources from the 1000s. However, this chronicle does not mention the name of Esiko's father. Thus the name of the Askani's oldest known ancestor is unknown, the name later attributed to him Adalbert is based on "The Annalista Saxo" which mentions Sigefridus, avunculus Esici comitis de Ballenstide, filius Odonis incliti marchionis, in plain text, Sigefried is Esiko's uncle when his sister married Adalbert. Esiko also names his son Adalbert II, another strong indication that his father's name was Adalbert. "

Notes:
The Annalista Saxo ("Saxon annalist") is the anonymous author of an important imperial chronicle, believed to have originated in the mid-12th century at Nienburg Abbey in the Duchy of Saxony.

The chronicle of the "Annalista Saxo" is a collection of dates and facts about the medieval German monarchs (Kings of the Romans) and their Carolingian predecessors, beginning in the year 741 and continued until 1142.

The codex was created between 1148 and 1152. The anonymous author had more than 100 sources at his disposal, including some which no longer exist. The entries are arranged chronologically by year.

The identity of the chronicler, sometimes identified with Abbot Arnold of Nienburg (d. 1166), has not been conclusively established. (Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annalista_Saxo)

NObody names their son anything "II" - numerals are attached by later historians and researchers trying to organize a chronology of rulers. Thus Esiko naming a son Adalbert may *suggest*, but it does not *prove*, that his father's name was Adalbert.

(Also, to avoid wasted effort, Annalista Saxo has nothing to do with Saxo Grammaticus.)

What happened, obviously, was that the Master Profile was locked to no-parent and no-child status. The secondary profile, as a direct result, had those relationships sheared off on merging. It is what the Geni software does and why merging with Master Profiles is generally done with great caution.

There is no need to attack people for what was a mechanical software problem.

I followed the curator note.

This is the Master Profile for Esiko, count of Ballenstedt.
Curator Note from Justin Swanstrom (8/14/2015):

Parents unknown.

Locked due to recent vandalism.

Jason Scott Wills Is the current curator, so if there’s a difference needed in the curator note, he’ll take care of it.
