In 858, he and his family, abandoned their sovereign Louis the German and went over to Charles the Bald, Judith's son.[1] They were generously rewarded and Conrad was appointed to many countships. Louis the German confiscated his Bavarian fiefs and lands.[3]
The Miracula Sancti Germani calls Conrad Chuonradus princeps (prince, sovereign), when recording his marriage. By some accounts his wife re-married to Robert the Strong after his death.
