Notes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oda_of_Metz
Oda of Metz (ca. 910 – 10 Apr 963) was a German noblewoman.

She was the daughter of Count Gerard of Metz. Her mother Oda of Saxony was a 
daughter of Otto I, Duke of Saxony and thus a member of the Liudolfings. One of her 
brothers was Henry the Fowler. Because of this family connection Oda was a cousin of 
the first Holy Roman Emperor, Otto I the Great.

In 930, Oda married Gozlin, Count of Bidgau and Methingau, who gained fame as 
military commander for his brother, Adalberon I of Metz. Because she outlived her 
husband by twenty years, she was head of the household and ran the estate and 
lands until their children had reached adulthood.

They had the following children:
Reginar, count of Bastogne (d. 18 Apr 963)
Henry (d. 6 Sep 1000)
Godfrey (935/940 – 3 Sep 995/1002), count of Verdun
Adalberon (935/940 – 23 Jan 989), archbishop of Reims 969-989
