- According to two connected Spanish Chronicles of the 10th century, the Cronica ad Sebastianum, and the Cronica Rotensis, Fruela was the brother of Alfonso I, King of Asturias, and presumably like him, the son of Pedro, Duke of Cantabria.
His mother's name is never mentioned, but his father is supposedly a descendant of the Visigothic Kings of Spain, though the actual line of descent is never named.
Salazar y Acha estimates he was born about 708 and died before 757.
His wife (or wives) is never named but he had three children;
Aurelio, succeeded as King of Asturias;
Vermudo or Bermudo, succeeded as King of Asturias
