http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/CARINTHIA.htm RICHGARD, daughter of - -- (-Santiago de Compostela 9 Jul [1072], bur Spanheim, transferred [1 100] to St Paul). The ''Fundatio Monasterii Sancti Pauli'' in Carinthi a names "comes Engelbertus ex patre Sigfrido Francorum civis, ex matr e Rihkarda maiorum Karinthia primus", and in a later passage names "Si fridi natale solum Spanheimmense fuerat castrum, Richkart Laventinis o riunda" as parents of "Hartwic Magdeburgensis archiepiscopus" [''Funda tio Monasterii Sancti Pauli in Carinthia'' 2 and 7, MGH SS XV.2, pp. 1 058 and 1060]. Wegener assumes that she was Richgard, daughter of Enge lbert Graf im Inn- und Norital [Sieghardinger] & his wife Liutgard -- - because she named her son Engelbert [Wegener (1965/67), p. 95]. Howe ver, the same reasoning could apply to any other contemporary member o f the Sieghardinger family, in which the name Engelbert was commonly u sed. The necrology of Salzburg St Rudpert records the death "VII Id Ju l" of "Rihkart coma" [''Monumenta Necrologica S Rudperti Salisburgensi s'', Salzburg Necrologies, p. 91]. The brothers Graf Engelbert and Har twig Archbishop of Magdeburg transferred the remains of their mother R ichgard from Spanheim to St Paul to be next to her husband Graf Siegfr ied, the document dated [1100] confirming that their father died whil e returning from pilgrimage to Jerusalem and was first buried in Bulga ria and that their mother died while on pilgrimage to Santiago de Comp ostela [Kärnt. UB 3, 195 n 499, cited in Wegener (1965/67), p. 265].
