Three sons and three daughters were born in wedlock, two sons were legitimized by marriage.
After the death of his father Friedrich I. zu Leiningen-Westerburg-Altleiningen ruling count. The holdings of the Counts of Leiningen-Westerburg-Altleiningen and Leiningen-Westerburg-Neuleiningen on the left bank of the Rhine were incorporated into the French state in the wake of the French Revolution in 1793, and the two Counts of Altleiningen and Neuleiningen were temporarily imprisoned in Paris.

In 1806 their estates were incorporated into the Grand Duchies of Berg and Hessen-Darmstadt and the Principality of Nassau-Weilburg and Nassau-Usingen .
