Bivin of Gorze

Bivin of Gorze (810/830–863) was a Frank founder of the Bivinids family. He was married to a daughter of Boso the Elder, who may have been called Richildis. During his life he functioned as lay abbot of the Gorze Abbey.[1] His offspring includes:

Richildis, who married King Charles the Bald;[1]
Richard the Justiciar, Duke of Burgundy;
Boso, King of Provence;
possibly Bivin, Count of Metz.
