A charter dated 1154 confirms variation donations, including the donation of "terræ…in territorio Marolii" to "monialibus de Colunnantiis" made by "Gauffridus vicecomes Firmitatis Ansculfi", with the consent of "Constantiæ uxoris suæ, filii sui Petri, filiæ Adæ".

Her parentage is indicated by the charter dated 1177 under which [her son-in-law] "Andreas dominus de Feritate Gaucherii" confirmed donations to Molesme made by "Gaucherius quondam dominus de Feritate Gaucherii…pro anima uxoris suæ Elizabeth…Elias filius eius".
