Ringardis DE MADRIE 1
- Born: Between 805 and 810
- Married: Sep 822
- Buried: église collégiale de Sainte-Radégonde, Poitiers, France
 Research Notes:
The wife of King Pepin I is called "filia Theotberti comitis" in the Vita Hludowicis Imperatoris. Einhard's Annales record the marriage in 822 of "Pippinum…in Aquitanium" and "filiam Theotberti comitis Matricensis". The Miraculis Sancti Genulfi refers to "sororem [Robertus]" as wife of "Pipinus". A contemporary poem in honour of King Pepin names "Irmgart" as his wife, although Settipani highlights that the original manuscript of this poem names her "Ringart". "Pipinus…rex Aquitanorum" granted privileges to Saint-Julien de Brioude, for the souls of "uxorisque nostræ Ingeltrudis reginæ…Hermeingardæ quondam reginæ, genetricisque nostræ Thetberti ac Nebelongi comitis, patris et avi eiusdem Ingeltrudis et prolis" by charter dated 12 Mar 836, which misnames his mother but which gives an intriguing insight into the possibilities that her father was descended from the Nibelung/Theoderic family... 2
