Babenberg (822 words)
Leopold supported Henry, the son of Henry III, in his rising against his father, but was soon drawn over to the emperor's side, and in 1106 married his daughter Agnes, widow of Frederick I of Swabia[?].
One of Leopold's sons was Otto[?], bishop of Freising[?].
Leopold's brother Henry[?] (surnamed Jasomirgott from his favourite oath, "So help me God!") was made count palatine of the Rhine in 1140, and became margrave of Austria on Leopold's death in 1141.
