HEINRICH [I] von Salm, son of HERMANN [II] Graf von Salm & his wife Agnès de Mousson ([1105/10]-after 1153, bur Notre-Dame La Ronde, near Metz Cathedral). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names (in order) "Henricum de Salmis et fratrem eius Theodericum abbatem sancti Pauli Virdunensis" as sons of "Hermanno de Salmis" & his wife[368]. In 1133, he was in dispute with his maternal uncle Etienne Bishop of Metz over the avouerie of the abbey of Senones. He besieged Metz and was excommunicated. Graf von Salm und Langenstein. “Comes Henricus” settled disputes with Senones abbey by charter dated 1135[369]. The Triumphus Sancti Lamberti de Castro Bollonio names "comes Salmiensis Henricus natus de sorore comitis Rainaldi" when recording that he helped his maternal uncle raise the Bishop of Liège's siege of the château de Bouillon in Sep 1141[370]. A charter dated 1147 confirms the agreement between "comitissa Agnes et heredes de Languesten" and "Bencelinus de Turquesten cum filio suo Conone" and others relating to the abbey of Haute-Seille, with the consent of "comitissam Agnetem de Languesten cum filiis suis Henrico et Hermanno consulibus, Conrardum…comitem cum uxore sua Havyde et filio Hugone"[371]. Between Jun 1147 and 10 Aug 1149, he took part in the Second Crusade. "Henricus comes de Langsteim" donated property to the abbey of Bongort by charter dated to [1147/54][372]. He is mentioned for the last time in a letter dated 1153 from the abbé de Stavelot[373]. A charter dated to [1155] or [1160] records the foundation of the abbey of Haute-Seille by “comitissam Agnetem de Languestein cum filiis suis Henrico et Heremanno consulibus, Conrardum...comitem cum uxore sua Havyde et filio Hugone”[374].

m CLEMENTIA, daughter of --- (-before 1169). According to Europäische Stammtafeln[375], the wife of Graf Heinrich [I] was named Clementia but the primary source on which this is based has not yet been identified. According to the same source, she may have been the daughter of Albert [I] Graf von Dagsburg, although the basis for this speculation is not known. In any case, this parentage appears unlikely from a chronological point of view if it is correct that Graf Albert died in 1098, given the likely date of Clementia's grandson's marriage in the 1180s. If Clementia was related to the Grafen von Dagsburg, it is therefore more likely that she would have been Clementia, daughter of Hugo [XI] Graf von Dagsburg & his wife Gertrud [van Looz].

Graf Heinrich [I] & his wife had [two] children:

1. N.N. von Salm (-before 1200).
2. HEINRICH [II] von Salm (-1200).

4. [CLEMENTIA (-before 1169). According to Europäische Stammtafeln[313], the wife of Heinrich [I] Graf von Salm may have been the daughter of Albert [I] Graf von Dachsburg, although the basis for this speculation is not known. In any case, this parentage appears unlikely from a chronological point of view if it is correct as shown above that Graf Albert died in 1098, given the likely date of Clementia's grandson's marriage in the 1180s. If Clementia was related to the Grafen von Dachsburg, it is therefore more likely that she would have been the daughter of Graf Hugo [XI]. m HEINRICH [I] von Salm, son of HERMANN [II] Graf von Salm & his wife Agnès de Mousson (-after 1153, bur Notre-Dame La Ronde, near Metz Cathedral).
