Bohemund IV was the son of Bohemund III of Antioch by his first wife Orguilleuse d'Harenc.
Bohemund III had grandson, Raymond-Roupen of Antioch, from his eldest son Raymond of Antioch, who was considered by many to be the rightful heir to Antioch.
Bohemund married Plaisance of Gibelet and had at least three sons: Henry of Antioch (father of king Hugh III of Cyprus and I of Jerusalem), Philip of Antioch, who married Isabella of Armenia, and Bohemund, who succeeded him.
From Constantinople to AntiochBohemund was the real leader of the First Crusade; and it says much for his leading that the First Crusade succeeded in crossing Asia Minor, which the Crusades of 1101, 1147 and 1189 failed to accomplish.
A politique, Bohemund was resolved to engineer the enthusiasm of the crusaders to his own ends; and when his nephew Tancred left the main army at Heraclea[?], and attempted to establish a footing in Cilicia, the movement may have been already intended as a preparation for Bohemund's eastern principality.
Bohemund was the first to get into position before Antioch (October 1097), and he took a great part in the siege, beating off the Moslem attempts at relief from the east, and connecting the besiegers on the west with the port of St Simeon and the Italian ships which lay there.
