- Boso , † after 936, 911/931 Count of Avignon and Vaisin , 926/931 Count of Arles , 931/936 Margrave of Tuscien
- Teutberga, † before September 948; ∞ Warnarius, X December 6th 924, 895 Vice- Count of Sens , 895/896 Count of Troyes .
The existence of a second daughter emerges from a document from the year 924, but nothing more is known about her.
Theotbald is count of Arles around 879/880 and is in the entourage Boso von Viennes , the new king of Lower Burgundy , with whom he is related. The Annales Vedastini (Annals of the Abbey of Saint-Vaast ) report that Teutbaldum filium Hucberti (Theotbald, son of Hugbert ) was seriously wounded by Heinricus in 880 in a battle against Bosonem tyrannum (the tyrant Boso). He was then pursued with the Alsatian Duke Hugo and had to flee to Provence.
The date of his death is unknown, it lies between 887 and 895. His widow Bertha married in 895 (or between 890/898) to Adalbert the Rich , Margrave of Tuscia .
