From Heinz Klingenberg: Odins Wanderzug nach Schweden I've picked
some t-r- stuff.

Fredegar (7th cent. CE) mentions the fall of Troy, emigration from
Phrygia to Asia and Europe, tripartition in Macedonians, Franks,
Torci/Turci, Franci were named after their king Francio and the
Turci/Torci/Torqui (of Trojan descent) after their king
Torquotus/Torcoth/Torchot ("per quod gens Turquorum nomen
accepit", "per quem ibique vocati sunt Turchi")

also:

Heimlýsing:

"A Tracia bygði fyst Tiras sonr Iafeths Noasonar, fra honum er komen
þioð su er Tyrkir heita" [from Tiras Japhetssohn comes the people,
called Tyrkir] (AM 764 4º [14th cent.] and Hauksbók version.

Isidor, Etymologiae, 9,2,31:

("Thiras, ex quo Thraces; quorum non satis inmutatum vocabulum est,
quasi Tiraces"

Honorius Augustodunensis, De imagine mundi:

"Thracia, a Tras filio Japhet dicta"

The genealogy of Harald the Fair-haired in the introduction of the
Flateyjarbók

Ætt Haralldz fra Adam: " . . . Japhet ...Priamus / Munnon eda
Mennon ... Troaana / Tror=Þorr . . . Voden=Odinn, hann var
Tyrkiakonungr . . . Haralldr konungr hinn haarfagri"

Hugo von St. Victor:

The Trojan migrants are divided into Franks und Turci, named from
their then kings.

Richard of St. Victor: Excerptiones allegoricae liber 10, cap. 1:

"Dicunt namque quod post excidium Trojae multitudo magna inde
fugiens, ac deinde in duos populos se dividens, altera pars
Francionem quemdam supra se regem constituerit, altera Turcum
[Teucrum] nomine secuta fuerit, atque ex eo duos populos sumpto
nomine Francos et Turcos [Teucros] usque hodie vocari"

Chroniques de Saint Denis (around 1300) call Turcus a grandchild of
Priamos, son of Hektor, and Francio another grandchild of Priamos,
son of Troylus

Trójumanna saga: Tyrkir=Trójumenn

Designations for Trojans in the Aeneid:

Teucri pl. 125 occurrences (after Teukros/Teucer, the oldest king of
Troy, father-in-law of Dardanus Jupiterson)

Troes pl. 30 occurrences (descendants of Tros, ancestor of the Aeneas
people)

Dardanides, 19 occurrences (after Dardanus Jupiterson);

Aeneadae, 18 occurrences.

In Codex Upsaliensis Tyrkland and Tyrkir are replaced by Rumaborg
(=Troy).
