According to one source, in 1881 Agnes helped organize the American Red Cross.
•
When Agnes and Felix arrived in Mexico City, the French troops under François Achille Bazaine were leaving, being recalled to Europe to fight against the Prussians.
He joined the émigre party and commanded the Salm hussar regiment in the Army of Condé and served alongside Charles François de Virot de Sombreuil, who promoted him to command the 2nd Division of the force sent to land at Quiberon.
Wild- and Rhinegrave Charles of Salm-Dhaun (21 September 1675 in Hochstetten-Dhaun – 26 March 1733, ibid.) was Wild- and Rhinegrave of Salm-Dhaun from 1693 to 1733.
The area was the site of an important occupation throughout the 14th and 15th centuries (with foundry, metallurgy and pottery activities), without a doubt the after-effects of the acquisition by Jean de Salm of the lower valley of Bruche in 1366, from Mutzig to Schirmeck.
She was the daughter of Paul, Count zu Salm and head of the House of Salm (c. 1535 – c. 1595) by his wife, Marie Le Veneur, of whom he was a second cousin-once-removed, the couple sharing descent from Philippe L'Huillier, seigneur de Manicamp and de Cailly, governor of the Bastille.
He was later appointed Colonel Commander of the Salm-Salm Regiment, and was created a Chevalier of the Order of Saint Louis.
Wild- and Rhinegravine Diana Dorothea of Salm (25 July 1604 in Criechingen – 19 December 1672 in Wörth) was the daughter of Wild- and Rhinegrave John IX of Salm-Kyrburg-Mörchingen and his wife, Baroness Anna Catherine of Criechingen and Puttigny.
Countess Palatine Elisabeth Johanna of Veldenz (22 February 1653 in Lauterecken – 5 February 1718 in Mörchingen), was a Countess Palatine of Veldenz by birth and by marriage Wald- and Rhinegravine of Salm-Kyrburg.
Frederik IV Ernst Otto Philip Anton Furnibert (Paris, 14 December 1789 – Brussels, 14 August 1859) was prince of Salm-Kyrburg, Ahaus and Bocholt from 1794 to 1813.
•
On 13 December 1811, Frederick IV and Konstantin Alexander lost Salm entirely to France, which annexed it outright, and then two years later it was annexed to Prussia by the Congress of Vienna, thus ending the princedom of Salm-Kyburg.
•
In compensation for the loss of the Salm-Kyburg princedom on the left bank of the Rhine, the 1803 German Mediatisation granted Salm-Kyburg lordship over a third of a part of the secularised lands of the prince bishops of Munster that had previous belonged to the amts of Bocholt and Ahaus to compensate for his loss in 1801.
In Tübingen he met his future wife, Christine Charlotte, a daughter of Duke Eberhard III of Württemberg from his first marriage to Anna Dorothea of Salm-Kyrburg.
At first count of Salm and of Longwy, on his brother Henry II's death he inherited the county of Luxembourg, as well as providing the income for the abbeys of Saint-Maximin in Trier and Saint-Willibrord in Echternach.
In 1754 he was ordained priest and continued teaching, now in Rozsnyó (Rožňava) and in the Theresianum at Vienna, where he was professor of political science, and at the same time tutor to the princesses of Salm.
The House of Salm was a noble family originating in the Belgian Ardennes and ruling Salm.

When the principality of Salm-Salm was formed in 1751, La Petite-Raon was incorporated within it until 1792 when in the wake of the Revolution the village found itself in France, as a commune within the Canton of Senones.
Like its neighbouring communes, Le Mont was part of the Principality of Salm-Salm until 1793.
Moussey is one of several communes that formerly belonged to Senones Abbey: subsequently it fell within the Principality of Salm-Salm until the French Revolution, following which the former principality became a part of France.
The museum is housed within the Hôtel de Salm, built in 1782 by architect Pierre Rousseau for Frederick III, Prince of Salm-Kyrburg, burned in 1871 during the Paris Commune, and subsequently restored by subscription of medallists.
As "Von Salm", he figures as a supporting character in the Tim Powers novel The Drawing of the Dark.
The Hôtel de Salm was constructed between 1782 and 1787 by the architect Pierre Rousseau (1751–1810) for the German Prince Frederick III, Fürst of Salm-Kyrburg.
The Principality of Salm was ruled jointly by the princes of Salm-Kyrburg and Salm-Salm, Frederick IV, Prince of Salm-Kyrburg, and Constantine Alexander, Prince of Salm-Salm; each line had equal sovereign rights, but neither had a separate territory.
Through and beyond the later medieval period, the history of the villages in the valley dominated by Celles-sur-Plaine was effectively the history of Salm-Salm.
•
The extent of this settlement approximately defines the territory that centuries later became the Principality of Salm-Salm after the settlement of 1751.
The full title used by the Princes of the resurrected state was "Prince of Salm-Kyrburg, Sovereign Prince of Ahaus, Bocholt and Gemen, Wildgrave of Dhaun and Kyrburg, Rhinegrave of Stein".
Until 1793, Senones was the capital of the Principality of Salm-Salm.
In 1802, during the time of French rule, Wallenborn, which had been in the parish of Sarresdorf in the Diocese of Cologne, was grouped into the parish of Salm, as were Michelbach, Büscheich and Niedereich.
