Omfred

This name derives from the Old Norse “Húnrøðr,” composed of two elements: “húnn” (child, cub, bear cub) plus “*friþuz” (peace, tranquility, friendship). 1) Humphrey of Hauteville was the Count of Apulia and Calabria from 1051 to his death. Humphrey was probably the youngest son of Tancred of Hauteville by his first wife, Muriel. Some sources make Geoffrey and Serlo his younger brothers. He is said to have accompanied his elder brothers William and Drogo into the South around 1035 on information from Goffredo Malaterra; however, he may have arrived later, in 1044, during the reign of his elder brother William. 2) Hunfried († 1051) was archbishop of Ravenna from 1046 to 1051. Hunfried was a son of Count Liutold von Mömpelgard, son of Duke Konrad I of Swabia, and of Freiin Willibirg von Wülflingen (today part of Winterthur), who gave her husband the dominion of this name.
