Heinrich (Salier)
Heinrich , called Heinrich von Speyer or also Heinrich von Worms , († approx. End of 990) from the Salier family was the eldest son of Otto von Worms († 1004), Duke of Carinthia , and the brother of Pope Gregory V ( ruled 996-999). But since he died before his father, the office of Count in Wormsgau , which he held, remained his only one. He was buried in Worms Cathedral.
Heinrich married Adelheid († May 19, probably 1039/1046), a sister of Count Adalbert and Gerhard from the House of Matfriede , who entered into a second marriage with a Frankish count - possibly Poppo (V.) . She was buried in the collegiate church in Öhringen .
Heinrich and Adelheid had two children, a younger daughter, Judith († probably 998, but certainly before April 30, 1034), who was also buried in Worms Cathedral, as well as an older son, Konrad (* probably 990; † 4. June 1039 in Utrecht ), who was elected German king as Konrad II in 1024 and was crowned emperor in 1027.
