William Longsword (in French language,
Guillaume Longue-Épée, in old scandinavian languages,
Viljâlmr Langaspjôt) (born 893, in Normandy, France died
December 17,
942, in Normandy) was Earl (ruler) of Normandy. He is considered as the second duke of Normandy, even if this title did not exist at the time.
Little is known about his early years. He was born in Bayeux or
Rouen. His parents were
Rollo of Normandy and Poppa. All that is known of Poppa is that she was a Christian, and the daughter to Berengar of Rennes, the previous lord of what (
Brittania Nova) became Normandy. According to the
Planctus, he was baptized a Christian.
William succeeded Rollo sometime around
928. It appears that he faced a rebellion early in his reign, from Normans who felt he had become too Frankified. The following years are obscure. In
939 William became involved in a war with Arnulf I of Flanders, which soon became intertwined with the other conflicts of the reign of Louis IV of France. He was killed by followers of Arnulf while at a meeting to settle their conflict. His son
Richard I of Normandy succeeded him.
