Notes about Sophie van Saarbrucken

SOPHIE (-1215 or after). Philipp Archbishop of Köln confirmed rights of the abbey of Rolduc, at the request of "Dominus Henricus de Lymburg filius Domini Henrici et nepos ducis Walerami…quam uxor eius Domina Sophia et filii eius Henricus et Waleramnus" by charter dated 1178[1059]. The parentage of Sophie is not known. Ernst suggests that she was the daughter of Simon [I] Graf von Saarbrücken, basing this on the introduction of the names Simon and Friedrich into the family of the dukes of Limburg[1060]. A close relationship between the two families is shown by the charter dated 1223 under which "Simon comes Sarepont et…mater mea Lucardis comitissa in Wide" donated part of the church at Listorf to Kloster Wadegozingen, with the advice of "ducis cognati mei Walrami et filiorum suorum Henrici et Walrami et Henrici Gemini Pontis comitis patrui mei et…cognati mei Henrici comitis de Castello et…Lutheri comitis de Wide"[1061]. The term cognatus, used in reference to three individuals in this charter, means “stepfather” in the case of Lothar Graf von Wied. It is suggested that “Henrici comitis de Castello” refers to Heinrich Graf von Bliescastel (no Graf von Castell named Heinrich has been identified at that period), maybe the son of the donor’s paternal aunt. The chronology suggests that Walran Duke of Limburg could have been the son of another of the donor’s paternal aunts. "Sophia ducissa de Lenburch" founded an anniversary at Liège cathedral, for the soul of "filii mei Simonis", by undated charter[1062].
