Sealed in a document by her father at the Rapperswil Castle on 10 January 1261, Rudolf confirmed that all fiefdom given by the Einsiedeln Abbey outside Etzel, meaning beyond the mountain of the same name beginning on Obersee (Zürichsee) lake shore, descended to his daughter Elisabeth, the other lands to his wife Mechthild, excluded some feuds which namely were mentioned.

Ludwig von Homberg was killed in the battle of Schlosshalde in 1289, and Elisabeth, now Countess of the Grafschaft Rapperswil, was forced to sell in 1290 all their rights and possessions, which the house had in Uri, to the Wettingen Abbey.

The archives of the Einsiedeln Abbey explained in the books of the professed abbots (Professbuch der Äbte) these serious change in the balance of power of the Zürichgau; below some passages to the person of the Countess Elisabeth: As [Count Rudolf IV] he had no male heir, the count wished to transfer his fief to his wife Mechtild [of Neifen] as Leibgeding, thenafter to his daughter Elisabeth ...

When Count Ludwig von Homberg on 27 April 1289 died, Elisabeth got back Pfäffikon and Wollerau [so-called Höfe district] ...

The Countess Elisabeth von Rapperswil-Homberg laid claims to the courts in Brütten and Finstersee, but renounced on 29 November 1293 on their claims ...[7] So Rudolf I of Habsburg got in the possession of the bailiwick over the valley called Urseren, which controlled the strategical most important Gotthard Pass, and he also acted as Vogt of the Einsiedeln Abbey, rights held by the House of Rapperswil for centuries.

[8] In 1286, for financial reasons, the Countess Elisabeth had to sell her personal farm estate in Oberdürnten including the associated rights (in particular the lower courts) to the Rüti Abbey.

The advocacy of Pfäffikon etc were Johann Abt 1296 from Countess Elisabeth of Rapperswil, resulting in a second marriage with Rudolf III, had married von Habsburg-Laufenburg.

But her son from her first marriage, Wernher von Homberg, a part thereof; this pledged Habsburg-Austria in 1319 and the advocacy of Einsiedeln; later all fief went accordance with the contract of Habsburg-Laufenburg ...[7]As sovereign, Elisabeth von Rapperswil signed many documents, settled differences or legal affairs,[9] or gave rights to settlements, among them on 7 January 1300 the pledge of the reign Greifensee to the knight Hermann II.

The pledge included the castle, the town and the lake of the same name, and a larger number of farms, along with supporting fields, meadows, forests and even the courtiers themselves.

Graf Rudolf transferred to his parents, his late wife Elisabeth and his own salvation's sake, the patronage of the church in Dietikon with the presentation right in the chapels of Urdorf and Spreitenbach to the Wettingen Abbey in the Limmat Valley.

Gebhard, provost of Strassburg, authenticated as vicar in temporalibus of the Bishop Gerhard of Konstanz that Count Rudolf and Johann, his son, to enlarge the spiritual welfare of their ancestors and the wife Elisabeth, with his permission to grant to the church Jonen in Rapperswil, whose feudal law belongs to the Counts, a resident priest donated for Sundays and public holidays (benefice, in German: Pfründe).
