Indeed, Albérade was the daughter of Duke Gislebert of Lotharingie , and Gerberge de Saxe , who then remarried to Louis IV of Outremer.
The Genealogia Comitum Flandriæ mentions a girl without naming her. Édouard de Saint-Phalle and Jean Noël Mathieu propose the first name of Giselberte on the basis of a charter of 1058 (but perhaps badly dated), taken up and published under the direction of Mathieu Maximilien Quantin in the General Book of Yonne , 1854-1860

He cannot have died in 967 because the year of his burial at the abbey church of Saint-Remy (Saint-Remi) in Rheims (Auj. Reims), Archdiocese of Rheims (Auj. Reims), department of Marne, Champagne-Ardenne region, France - today a minor basilica - indicates that he was buried in this church in 963 . You can consult the list of the burials of important figures buried here: Basilique Saint-Remi de Reims . Note that: 'Rheims' is the old spelling of 'Reims.' At the time of his burial, this church was attached to the abbey of Rheims. The plaque also features the old othrograph: 'Saint-Remy' rather than 'Saint-Remi.'
