Certainty: 3 Remnants of various defeated armies of 1101 set out from Antioch to Jerusalem
After the disasters of 1101, survivors from several of the armies which had been destroyed gathered in Antioch, enjoying the hospitality of Tancred. They prepared to set out southwards to fulfill their crusading vows in Jerusalem. They included Albert of Biandrate, Conrad the constable, Engelrand of Laon, Manasses of Barcelona, Rainald of Burgundy, Stephen of Blois, Stephen of Burgundy, Welf of Bavaria, William of Aquitaine and William of Nevers. There were also some Italian bishops. Raymond of Toulouse, who arrived by ship from Constantinople, was immediately imprisoned for his conduct of the previous year, but later released when he swore not to make conquests in the area, though his property remained confiscated. Most of the crusaders besieged and captured Tortosa, which they gave to Raymond, who remained behind to defend it, despite the pleas of the others. Meanwhile Rainald and Welf had gone on ahead, ignoring Tortosa: Rainald became sick and died, while Welf completed his pilgrimage but became sick on the way home and died in Cyprus. Raymond defeated by a trick and ambush a determined attempt on Tortosa by Tughtakin of Damascus
