Kind(er):
SIEGFRIED ([925/35]-28 Oct [998], bur Trier). As noted above, Siegfried is shown here, for presentational purposes, as the son of Cunigonde by her possible third husband, but the possibility cannot be excluded that he was Siegfried, son of Wigerich [III] Comte d’Ardenne (in which case he would have been born [915/19] not [925/35] as suggested above. His relationship with Wigerich’s family is indicated by Gerbert of Aurillac who refers to "Godefridum, patruumque eius Sigifridum" in a letter dated 985 addressed to "dominæ Teuphanu Imperatrice" after he visited the pair in prison following their unsuccessful defence of Verdun against Lothaire King of the Franks[16], other letters clarifying that "Godefridum" was Godefroi Comte de Verdun, grandson of Wigerich [III]. If Siegfried´s birth is estimated to [925/35] (which appears consistent with his estimated marriage date), he could have been Cunigonde’s son by an otherwise unrecorded third marriage as further explained above. Otto I King of Germany transferred the convent of Echternach to Siegfried "advocatus altaris" in [949/50], although the charter relating to this grant has not yet been identified. Siegfried owned scattered properties in Feulen, Hosingen and Monnerich (in the pagus Wabrensis) and at Berncastel and Roussy (in the pagus Mosellanus)[17]. Graf/Comte [von/de ---]: Bruno Archbishop of Köln confirmed an exchange of property "Baldau, quam Sigifredus comes ut acquireret" [translated by Vanderkindere as "Bodeux que menaçait Sigefroid"[18]] for "in villa Nohas…in pago Heislensi in comitatu Tulpiaco" between the abbot of Stavelot and "comite Warnero [Werner Graf von Zülpich, see the document LOWER LOTHARINGIA NOBILITY] fideli nostro...cum consensu uxoris et filiorum...suorum" by charter dated 31 Oct 953 ("regnante rege Ottone fratre nostro, anno xviii, Godefrido duce")[19]. Siegfried’s county has not been identified. His use of the comital title, before he acquired the castle of Luxembourg, suggests that he inherited substantial property holdings from his father, who would presumably also have been “Comte/Graf”. Comte [de Luxembourg]. "Sigefridus comes de nobili genere natus" received the castle of Luxembourg from St Maximin, Trier in exchange for property "villa Feulen in comitatu Giselberti comitis in pago Arduenne in villa…Viulna [et]…in pago Mathingouui in comitatu Godefridi comitis super ripem Alsuntie fluminis" by charter dated 17 Apr 963[20]. Gade reproduces a photographic copy of the original charter[21].
m (before 964, [960?]) HEDWIG, daughter of --- (-13 Dec after 993). "Sygefridus comes" reached an agreement with Heinrich Archbishop of Trier by charter dated 17 Sep 964 which names "coniunx mea Hadewige, filiusque noster Henricus"[32]. "Sigifridus comes…cum coniuge mea Hadewihe" donated property "in valle Alsunciensi in villa Marics in comitatu Ardenensi regimini filii nostri Heinrici comitis subiacenti" to St Maximin, Trier by charter dated 993[33]. According to the Preface of Vitæ Heinrici et Cunegundis Imperatores, "domina Hedewich comitissa, mater Chunigundis imperatricis, obiit Idus Decembris"[34]. The necrology of Ranshofen records the death "Id Dec" of "Hedewich com mater Chunigundis imperatricis Papie occisus"[35].
