      Giselbert supported Henry I who rewarded him with his daughter Gerberga in

      revolted against Henry I's son, Otto I the Great and was killed in defeat
      near Andernach - Otto I thereupon was recognized by Louis IV as Duke of
      Lorraine and Louis IV married Gerberga. Giselbert was lay abbot of
      Echternach, 915-39.
