although it appears that Wigeric was of royal descent, based on the statement
in the life of abbot John of Gorze that his son Adalbero was of royal descent
on both the paternal and maternal side, there does not appear to be any good
reason to accept any of the various conjectures which have arisen regarding
Wigeric's parentage. [Ref: HenryII wiger000 8/3/2008]
23 Jan 899: appeard in an act of king Zwentibold, together with count
Ricuin (who later married his widow) [Ref: HenryII wiger000 8/3/2008]
19 Sep 902: in an act of Ludwig das King (Louis the Child), rights in
Treves passed from the count to the bishop, with the consent of count
Wigeric [Ref: HenryII wiger000 8/3/2008]
Feb 903 or 904: Count Wigeric gave all of his lands in Itzig (Epitaicum)
in Woevre to the abbey of Echternach (Itzig just to the southeast of
Luxemburg) [Ref: HenryII wiger000 8/3/2008]
1 Jan 909: witness to a charter in which Roricus exchanged property with
the abbacy of Saint-Maximin in Trier [Ref: HenryII wiger000 8/3/2008]
908x915: king Charles the Simple gave to the church of Saint-Lambert at Liege
the abbacy of Hastiere an der Maas, then held by royal order by count
Windricus for his life and the lives of his wife Cunigundis and of Adalbero,
one of his sons, nepos of Charles, with the qualification that they continue
to hold the said abbacy for their lives (Wampach states that another document
dated 18 Jan 908 is earlier (details unclear), and the date of the document is
bounded on the other side by Regnier's death in 915). [Ref: HenryII wiger000
