Richilde is named with her husband in 992 . Her origin is unknown but she may have been Richilde von Bliesgau, daughter of Folmar Graf von Bliesgau & his wife Berthe ---. This origin is suggested by the charter dated 1076 under which Pibon Bishop of Toul granted privileges to the priory of Laître sous Amance, founded by "comitissæ Sophiæ", in which she declared that the castle of Amance belonged to "Theodericus dux, comitissæ avus" who had inherited it from "comiti Folmaro in Asmantia" [Calmet (1748), Tome II, Preuves, col. cccxlviii, and Lesort, A. (1909) Chronique et chartes de l'abbaye de Saint-Mihiel, Mettensia 27 (Paris), no. 39, p. 153].
Richilde married Thierry I Duc de Bar et Lorraine, son of Frederick Duke of the Upper Lotharingia and Beatrix de Paris. (Thierry I Duc de Bar et Lorraine died in 1026-1027.)
