  The Story and Origins of Mother Goose - mothergoose.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
If there were an actual mother goose, she might well have been an 8th Century noblewoman named Bertrada II of Laon who, in 740, married Pepin the Short, King of the Franks, and in 742 bore his son Charles, immortalized as Charlemagne, the de facto founder of the Holy Roman Empire.
Bertrada, who was a patroness of children and provided her over-achieving son his only education, was known as Berte aux grand pied, or Bertha Greatfoot, or Queen Goosefoot.
Whatever Bertrada's role, by the mid-17th Century a mythical Mother Goose--mère l'oye--was widely acknowledged by French peasants and nobility alike as a fairy birdmother who told charming tales to children.

 Unique Facts About Europe: Charlemagne
Charlemagne (2 April 742 or 747 – 28 January 814) (also Charles the Great; from Latin, Carolus Magnus or Karolus Magnus), son of King Pippin the Short and Bertrada of Laon, was the king of the Franks from 768 to 814 and king of the Lombards from 774 to 814.
Charlemagne was the eldest child of Pippin the Short (714 – 24 September 768, reigned from 751) and his wife Bertrada of Laon (720 – 12 July 783), daughter of Caribert of Laon and Bertrada of Cologne.
The brothers maintained not-so-friendly, not-so-hateful relations with the assistance of their mother Bertrada, but Charlemagne signed a treaty with Duke Tassilo III of Bavaria and married Gerperga, daughter of King Desiderius of the Lombards, in order to surround Carloman with his own allies.

 Sehenswürdigkeit: Mürlenbach: Bertrada-Burg ( Burgen )
Alle karolingischen Annalen, einschließlich der "Vita Caroli Magni" seines Biographen Einhard, verschweigen den Ort der Geburt ebenso wie das spätere Jahr der Eheschließung, das zwischen 744 und 749 angenommen wird.
Nicht weniger zwingend ist die Vorstellung, dass sich Bertradas ehrgeizige Großmutter, obwohl bereits auf dem Wege zur potentiellen Ahnfrau des ersten römisch-deutschen Kaisers, vorrangig an einer standesgemäßen Eheschließung ihrer Enkelin mit dem Kindsvater Pippin interessiert zeigte.
Ob sich allerdings ihre großen Füße auf ihr Erbe bezogen oder auf das wahre Ausmaß ihrer Extremitäten, könnte Bertrada nur selbst beantworten.

 Royalty.nu - The Carolingian Empire - Charlemagne and His Heirs
The king was nicknamed Pepin the Short, while his wife, Charlemagne's mother Bertrada, was nicknamed Bertha of the Big Foot, or Queen Goosefoot.
It was Bertrada who arranged for Charlemagne to marry a daughter of King Desiderius of the Lombards (a Germanic tribe whose kingdom was in Italy).
But it seems this wife was not to Charlemagne's liking, because he soon ended the marriage and took a new wife named Hildegarde, with whom he had six children, according to Einhard.
