Biography

A French Wikipedia article Liste des seigneurs de Picquigny names Adèle (or Odile) as the wife of Guermond or Eudes de Picquigny, and the mother of four sons;

1. Eustache, born about 1040-50, who succeeded;
2. Jean, archdeacon of Amiens;
3. Hubert;
4. Guermond, mentioned in 1069 as a follower of Godfrey of Bouillon in the Holy land, and may have succeeded his brother Eustache.^[1]

No dates are mentioned for Adele of her husband, but given the eldest son was born about 1040-50, a birth date of about 1025 for Adele is possible.

However although the Wikipedia article does have sources, none are cited for the information about Adele and her family, and her existence is possibly doubtful.
