GERHARD, son of GOTTFRIED Graf im Jülichgau & his wife Ermentrude of the Franks ([930/35]-after 963). The Liber Memorialis of Remiremont in [930s/940s] names (in order) "Gotefridus, Ermendrudis, Gotefridus, Gebardus, Gerardus, Adelardus, Girberga" assumed to be Gottffried, his wife, four sons and daughter[1102]. Graf von Metz 963. The Vita Adelheidis refers to the four brothers of "Gerbirg…filia ducis Godefridi", of whom "unus paterno nominee...obiit [sine] legitimæ uxoris et liberorum…alter …attavus fuit Henrici nuper defuncti imperatoris [Heinrich III]", the remaining two being ancestors of German nobles[1103].
m ---. The name of Gerhard's wife is not known.

Gerhard & his wife had [two possible children]:

1. ['''RICHARD''' ([950/55][1104]-after 986). Graf [von Metz]. 982. Nephew of Wicfrid Bishop of Verdun, although the primary source on which this is based has not yet been identified, nor the precise nature of the relationship. "Varneri comitis, Richardi comitis…" witnessed the charter dated 986 under which Gérard Bishop of Toul donated the church of Andelier to the abbey of Saint-Mansuy[1105].]

2. [GERHARD . No proof has been found of the paternity of Richard and his possible brother Gerhard. However, the Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines provides some interesting support for the affiliation shown here byrecording "comes Hugo de Daburg, pater sancti Leonis pape" as "consobrinus" of "imperator Conradus"[1106]. If Liutgarde, supposed paternal grandmother of Richard and Gerhard, married twice as shown above, Hugo [VI] Graf von Egisheim would have been second cousin once removed of Emperor Konrad, the emperor being the great-grandson of Liutgarde by her first marriage, Hugo being her grandson by her first marriage. Either Richard or Gerhard was father of, although the primary source on which this is based has not yet been identified.
