Life

The castles and offices of the Electorate of Cologne, Bilstein and Waldenburg , pledged to Count Gerhard II von Sayn , were initially pledged to Johann von Hatzfeld in 1453. Georg I von Sayn-Wittgenstein appointed him bailiff of Homburg in 1453 . The Archbishop of Cologne, Dietrich II von Moers , gave him the office of Marshal of Westphalia in 1458 as a pledge for 4,000 guilders . He and his brother Johann of the same name also received the Kurkölner offices of Bilstein and Waldenburg as a pledge for a sum of 6,000 guilders. The brother also held the office of Medebach . Together with his brothers Johann and Gottfried, Johann V also received a castle loan in Siegen from the Counts of Nassau-Dillenburg . As supporters of Gerhard I von Jülich-Berg, the brothers received a cash pension from the customs income in Düsseldorf in 1451 . From the Archbishop of Trier Johann II. Von Baden , Johann V received a wine of three fuders from the electoral winery in Ehrenbreitstein in 1462 .
