[edit] Date of Birth...

So I have been researching the family of which Saint Bevo belongs. There is something rather suspicious regarding the date of Saint Bevo's birth.

The article states that Bevo was born in the year 589 and that his father is Pepin of Landen. All good until you read the article about Pepin of Landen and discover that his birth was 580.

This of course would mean that Bevo is 9 years younger than his father... I suppose it's not entirely impossible, however...
