Notes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giselbert_of_Luxembourg
Giselbert of Luxembourg (c. 1007 – 14 August 1059) was count of Salm and of
Longwy, then count of Luxemburg from 1047 to 1059. He was the son of Frederick of
Luxembourg, count of Moselgau, and perhaps of Ermentrude of Gleiberg.
At first count of Salm and of Longwy, on his brother Henry II's death he inherited the
county of Luxembourg, as well as providing the income for the abbeys of Saint-
Maximin in Trier and Saint-Willibrord in Echternach. He got into an argument with the
archbishop of Trier Poppon as to the abbaye Saint-Maximin, which was arbitrated by
his brother Adalbero III, bishop of Metz.
In 1050, since the population of the town of Luxembourg had risen considerably, he
expanded the city by building a new fortified wall around it.
By an unknown wife, he had :
Conrad I (1040 † 1086), count of Luxembourg
Hermann I († 1088), count of Salm, founder of the House of Salm
daughter, married Thierry of Amensleben
daughter, married at Kuno, count of Oltingen
Adalbéron († 1097 at Antioch), canon at Metz
Jutta, married Udo of Limbourg
