Gislebert de Roucy, was born about 955 in Reims, he was the son of Renaud, count de Roucy and of Rheims, and Albérade de Lotharingie.
He became the count de Roucy, upon the death of his father in 967.
He was probably still child when his father died. He had various honors, but he only accepted the county of Roucy, while the county of Rheims being entrusted to Herbert III of Vermandois. Later, Eudes I, count de Blois and successor of Herbert will entrust the Viscount of Rheims to Gislebert.
In 987, with the death of the king Louis V, Gislebert seems to be rejoined without difficulty with Hugues Capet, but he however agreed to lend an oath of allegiance in 990 to Charles of Lorraine.
He died between April 19, 991 and 1000, and is buried in the abbey of Saint-Remi of Rheims.
Giselbert, comté de Roucy, was the father of Ebles I, who married Beatrix de Hainaut; and Yvette de Roucy, who married Manasses III, comté de Rethel.
