["Nobiles: Burchardus comes Magdeburgensis civitatis et Burchardus filius eius...” witnessed the charter dated 19 Jun 1155 under which Wichmann Archbishop of Magdeburg confirmed that “mater mea Machtildis...collardante fratre meo Conrado” had donated property “in occidentali Thietforde iuxta civitatem Halberstadensem”, for the soul of “cognati mei Wicmanni”[1666]. “...Burchardus burgravius et filius eius Burghardus...” witnessed the charter dated 1159 under which Wichmann Archbishop of Magdeburg granted property to “Heriberto”[1667]. It is not possible to be certain whether these documents relate to Burchard [II] and his son Burchard [III] or to the latter and his son Burchard [IV] . The chronology suggests that the former case is more likely, as in the second case Burchard [IV] would have been little more than an infant at the time.] Burggraf von Magdeburg. “...Burchardo burggravio Magdeburgensi...” witnessed the charter dated 1179 under which Odelrich Bishop of Halberstadt confirmed exchanges of property involving Kloster Kaldenborn[1668]. “...Burchardus burchgravius Magdeb. et frater eius Geuehardus...” witnessed the charter dated 1182 under which Wichmann Archbishop of Magdeburg confirmed the property of Halle St. Maria[1669]. “...Conradus imperialis aulæ capellanus frater burcgravii Magedeburgensis, Burchardus burcgravius Magedeburgensis...” witnessed the charter dated 1 Sep 1188 under which Emperor Friedrich I granted protection to Kloster Walkenried[1670]. A manuscript history of Querfurt church records that “Borchardum castellanum in Magdeborch” went to Jerusalem with Emperor Friedrich I and died “Antiochiæ” where he was buried[1671].
