 | | These legitimate grandchildren claimed themselves to be Pippin's true successors and with the help of his widow Plectrude tried to maintain the position of mayor of the palace after Pippin's death. | | | His other bynames and his ordinal number come from his position as the second "Pippin" (of three) in the Arnulfing dynasty. | | | However, Charles Martel, Pippin's son by his mistress, Alpaida (or Chalpaida), had gained favour among the Austrasians, primarily for his military prowess and ability to keep them well supplied with booty from his conquests. |

| | NodeWorks - Encyclopedia: Carloman, son of Charles Martel |
| | At the death of his father in 741, an attempt was made to divide power between Carloman and his brother Pippin III and Grifo. | | | Carloman strengthened his authority in part via his support of Boniface, the so-called "Apostle to the Germans." This was in part a continuation of a policy begun under his grandfather Pippin of Herstal and continued to a lesser extent under Charles Martel. | | | Carloman and Pippin soon ousted Grifo, and each turned his attention towards his own area of influence, Pippin in the West and Carloman in the East. |
