[3] or after.[1] Children Adalbert and Gerberge had these children. Heribert was presumably the eldest son. Not much is known about any other offspring. Bishop Liudolf seems to be accepted, on little evidence. . Gisele is presumably spurious, like her aunts. Guy de Soissons is provisionally placed by MedLands in the previous generation, as Adalbert's brother, citing several explicit records, but there seem to be possible difficulties with dates. French Wikipedia shows neither placing. Heribert IV (954 - 29 Aug 993) [3] Otto (950/5 - after 02 Nov 958/9). [3] He was thought to be Comte de Chiny (unproven).
