INTRODUCTION
As early as the reign of Alfonso II "el Casto" King of Asturias (791-842), the construction of a series of fortified villages and castles was started in the mountains above the upper Ebro to guard against Muslim invasions, from which the name "Castilla" (later given to the area) was derived. In 804, a separate bishopric was established at Valpuesta to administer religious affairs in the area. Later resources record that King Alfonso II appointed regional judges who were the first rulers of the province, and that these judges were gradually replaced by regional counts administering local districts. Martínez Díez classifies the existence of these judges as “legendario, producto de la creación literaria, sin ningún apoyo cronístico coetáneo ni documental”[1]. The county of Castile was originally only one of the local districts administered under the kings of Asturias, but the name was gradually extended to the entire area. Ibn al-Athir records that Fruela I King of Asturias (so dated to the 760s) took control of “Lugo, Portucale, Salamanca, Zamora, Ávila, Segovia y Castilla”[2]. Martínez Díez indicates that this passage represents the earliest mention of “Castilla” in history, although he concedes that Ibn al-Athir may have updated texts written in the 9th or 10th century by substituting the term which described the area when he compiled his own work (in the mid-13th century)[3]. King Fruela´s connection with the area is confirmed by the earliest document which relates to a location within the territory which evolved as Castilla: the charter dated 24 Apr 759 under which "abbatissa Nonna Bella" agreed with her nuns to establish the monastery of San Miguel de Pedroso, located 5 km from Belorado, the agreement being made "coram...Froilani regis"[4]. The Anales Complutenses (now more commonly known as the Anales Castellanos Segundos) record in 814 (Era 852) that “foras montani” left “Malacouria” and came “ad Castellam”[5]. The earliest charter (which is not either spurious or dubious) in which the name “Castilla” appears is the document dated 18 Jan 836 under which “Cardiel presbitero” donated property “in Castella quod nominatur Uilla Kardelli...et Uillella” to the church of San Andrés de Asía[6].
The Chronicon Burgense records that “Rodericus comes” (see below, Chapter 1) populated Amaya in 860 “per mandatum Regis Ordonii”[7]. Other early reports relating to Castile are provided by the Chronicon Albeldense which records the rebellion of “Froilane, Galliciæ comite” in the first year of the reign of Alfonso III King of Asturias (866), the king´s exile in “Castellam”, and his return after Fruela was killed[8]. The same source records that “Didacus filius Ruderici erat comes in Castella” during the reign of Alfonso III King of Asturias, dated to 882, while “Vigila Scemeniz” was “comes in Alava” and attacked Castile and arrived at “castrum...Ponte curbem”[9].
Until about 930, power in Castile was shared by five different families, the relationship between whom, if any, cannot be traced with certainty. There was no true central authority, and it is probably more accurate to describe these different counts as "in Castile" rather than "of Castile" at that time. This shared authority is illustrated by the Cronica de Sampiro which names "Nunius Fredenandi, Abolmondar Albus et suus filius Didacus, et Fredenandi Ansuri filius" (see below, Chapter 1, parts D, A and C, respectively) as those counts who governed "Burgos" and who were captured by King Ordoño II "in riuo…Carrion, loco…Tebulare", datable to [922/23] from the context of the passage[10]. In 930, Gonzalo Fernández, known as "de Lara" from the castle which he built, succeeded his father after nine years in exile. From that date until 1029, the county prospered, especially under the rule of the strong count Fernando González, son of Gonzalo Fernández. The succession became hereditary in the same family, and the counts established full political autonomy from the neighbouring kingdoms of León and Navarre. They also strengthened the county's frontiers against Muslim incursions, although in the later 10th and early 11th centuries the ruling counts benefited from strategic alliances with certain Muslim rulers.
In the early 11th century, the county of Castile was to some extent eclipsed by the powerful Sancho III King of Navarre, who had succeeded as king in 999 and already controlled the county of Aragon in addition to Navarre itself. King Sancho married the eldest daughter of Sancho García Count of Castile in 1010, which was to prove a judicious move for his own further territorial expansion. In 1029, the last independent Count of Castile, García II Sánchez, was murdered. Although his sister, the queen of Navarre, nominally succeeded as countess in her own right, the county was claimed in her name by her husband King Sancho, who installed their second son Fernando as count in her place. After extending his influence to the kingdom of León through another judicious marriage, King Sancho became the focus of all political power in the various Christian states in Spain. This centralised state of affairs was short-lived. The king divided his territories between his sons on his death in 1035. Fernando retained Castile, which was raised to the status of a kingdom. His succession as Fernando I King of Castile marked the arrival of Castile as a powerful force in Iberian politics.
Chapter 1. CONDES en [de] CASTILLA 850-1035
A. CONDES en CASTILLA, descendants of Conde RODRIGO
RODRIGO, son of --- (-4 Oct 873[11]). The origin of Rodrigo is unknown. He is referred to as Rodrigo, son of Ramiro I King of Asturias by Fernández de Béthencourt[12], presumably premised on Ramiro's second wife being Urraca de Castilla. This is chronologically impossible as Rodrigo is documented in 852 as conde, only ten years after the date of King Ramiro's second marriage. According to Pérez de Urbel, Rodrigo's appointment as conde in Castilla suggests some relationship with the royal family, maybe through Paterna, second wife of King Ramiro I[13]. King Ordoño I appointed him to defend the eastern frontier of Asturias, replacing the previously appointed judges who ruled the country, although it appears that his rule as Conde de Castilla was limited to the area north of the Santander mountains[14]. He is named as Conde en Castilla in the 852 foundation charter of San Martín de Ferrán, and in the [866/73] foundation charter of San Martín de Escalada[15]. The Chronicon Burgense records that “Rodericus comes” populated Amaya in 860 “per mandatum Regis Ordonii”[16]. He confirmed a charter of the monastery of San Millán de Salcedo dated 18 Apr 873[17]. The dating clause of a charter dated 29 May 873, under which "senior Didaco Ovecoz...cum uxore mea domna Guntroda" donated the churches of Santa María de Fresno and San Andrés de Treviana to the monastery of San Mamés, records "principe...Adefonso in Oveto et comite Roderico in Castella"[18]. m ---. The name of Rodrigo's wife is not known. Conde Rodrigo & his wife had [two] children: 1. [daughter. This marriage is not referred to in Pérez de Urbel. It may be speculative in an attempt to explain the nomination of Nuño as Conde en Castilla, although it is not certain that his appointment was due to family connections. m MUNIO Núñez "él de Castrojeriz" Conde en Castilla, son of [NUÑO Núñez & his wife ---] (-after 900).] 2. DIEGO Rodríguez "Porcelos" (-Coruña del Conde, Burgos 31 Jan 885). ["Didaco comite" donated property to the monastery of San Felices de Oca, by charter dated 15 Mar 863, witnessed by "Gomaze, Gogenellu, Sarrazino…"[19]. "Didaco comite" donated property to the monastery of San Felices de Oca, by charter dated 864, witnessed by "Gomaze, Gonellu, Sarrazino…"[20]. "Comite Didaco" donated property to the monastery of San Felices de Oca, by charter dated 869 "regnante Adefonso in Oveto et Didaco comite in Castella", witnessed by "Gomaze, Flagino"[21]. Martínez Díez indicates that these charters are all falsifications, highlighting in particular that they are dated during the period of Diego´s father´s rule as count[22].] He succeeded his father as Conde en Castilla. The Chronicon Albeldense records that “Didacus filius Ruderici erat comes in Castella” during the reign of Alfonso III King of Asturias, dated to 882[23]. The Chronicon Albeldense records in 883 that the Muslims (“Almundar, Mahomat regis filius cum duce Abohalt”) invaded “ad terminos Castellæ in pont Curbo castro”, adding that “Didacus comes” ruled[24]. He expanded the county to the south towards the source of the River Ebro, restoring the town of Oca[25]. The Chronicon Burgense records that “Didacus comes” populated Burgos in 884[26]. The Crónica Najerense records that “el conde Diego” repopulated Burgos in 884 and died “en Cornuta” 31 Jan 885[27]. m ---. The name of Diego's wife is not known. Conde Diego & his wife had [six] children: a) RODRIGO Díaz "el Abolmondar" (-after 930). [“...Gundisalbo Gudistioz, Didaco Gudistioz, Ruderico Didaz...Didaco Nebzan, Albaro Obecoz...” subscribed the charter dated 3 Feb 921 under which “Gundissalbus Didaci comite filius et uxor mea domna Maria” donated “molinis...aqua de Ebeia et de Arlanzon...” to San Pedro de Cardeña[28]. It is not certain that “Ruderico Didaz” was the brother of the donor”.] The Cronica de Sampiro names "Nunius Fredenandi, Abolmondar Albus et suus filius Didacus, et Fredenandi Ansuri filius" as those counts who governed "Burgos" and who were captured by King Ordoño II "in riuo…Carrion, loco…Tebulare", dateable to [922/23] from the context of the passage[29]. “Rudericus Didaz et uxor mea Justa” donated property to the monastery of San Juan de Tabladillo by charter dated 29 Dec 924, witnessed by “...Didaco Roderiz, Munio Roderiz, Feles Roderiz, Donna Gotina...”[30]. He confirmed the 930 document of conde Fernando González and his mother relating to land at Lara[31]. m JUSTA, daughter of --- (-after 29 Dec 924). “Rudericus Didaz et uxor mea Justa” donated property to the monastery of San Juan de Tabladillo by charter dated 29 Dec 924, witnessed by “...Didaco Roderiz, Munio Roderiz, Feles Roderiz, Donna Gotina...”[32]. Rodrigo & his wife had [four] children: i) DIEGO Rodríguez . The Cronica de Sampiro names "Nunius Fredenandi, Abolmondar Albus et suus filius Didacus, et Fredenandi Ansuri filius" as those counts who governed "Burgos" and who were captured by King Ordoño II "in riuo…Carrion, loco…Tebulare", dateable to [922/23] from the context of the passage[33]. “Rudericus Didaz et uxor mea Justa” donated property to the monastery of San Juan de Tabladillo by charter dated 29 Dec 924, witnessed by “...Didaco Roderiz, Munio Roderiz, Feles Roderiz...”[34]. The first three witnesses are assumed to be the donor´s sons although the relationship is not specified in the document. ii) MUNIO Rodríguez (-after 29 Dec 924). “Rudericus Didaz et uxor mea Justa” donated property to the monastery of San Juan de Tabladillo by charter dated 29 Dec 924, witnessed by “...Didaco Roderiz, Munio Roderiz, Feles Roderiz, Donna Gotina...”[35].

The document does not specify the donor´s patronymic. It is therefore not certain that he was Feles Rodríguez, although the name of his son “Rodrigo Abolmondar” (maybe named after his paternal grandfather) suggests that this co-identity may be correct. m ELDUARA, daughter of --- (-after 1 May 939). “Feles...cum coniuge mea Elduara et filiis nostris Roderico Abolmondar et Gristillo” sold “vinea et serna et fontes...in locum Quintana iusta flumen Cubiensis et suburbio Burguensis” to San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 1 May 939[38].

The first three witnesses are assumed to be the donor´s sons although the relationship is not specified in the document. If this is correct, it is possible that the fourth witness, whose name is listed before several other male witnesses, was the donor´s daughter.] b) GONZALO Díaz (-after 3 Feb 921). “Gundissalbus Didaci comite filius et uxor mea domna Maria” donated “molinis...aqua de Ebeia et de Arlanzon...” to San Pedro de Cardeña by charter dated 3 Feb 921[42]. m MARÍA, daughter of --- (-after 3 Feb 921). “Gundissalbus Didaci comite filius et uxor mea domna Maria” donated “molinis...aqua de Ebeia et de Arlanzon...” to San Pedro de Cardeña by charter dated 3 Feb 921[43]. c) FERNANDO Díaz (-after 1 May 932).

Pérez de Urbel suggests that he ruled in the eastern part of the county on the border with Rioja around Valpuesta[58]. “Gundissalbo Telliz...cum uxor mea Flamula” donated “serna...in Peternales” to San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 24 Sep 902, subscribed by “...Gutterre, Assuri, Beila Nuniz…”[59]. The dating clause of a charter of the monastery of Valpuesta dated 1 Sep “Era DCCCCLI” [913, but which must be dated to before 910] records “regnante domini Adefonsi rex in Obeto et comite Gondesalbo Telluz in Castella”[60]. The Annales Complutense record that “Gunzalvo Teliz” populated “Osma” in 912[61]. The dating clause of a charter dated 13 May 913, under which four individuals swore testimony on the altar of the church of San Millán de Cabinea “Gondesalbo Tellizi iuraturi”, records “regnante domno [Garsea in Le]ione et comite Gundesalbo Telluz in Lan[ta]ro[ne]”[62]. Conde in Cerezo: “Gundissalbo Telliz et uxor mea Flamula” donated its church to “sanctorum Georgii et Sanctii Ihoannis...in supurbio...Cerasio” by charter dated 25 Oct 913, the dating clause of which records “...comite Gundissalbo Telliz in Cerasio”, witnessed by “...Assur Gundisalbo, Munnio Assuri, Gomiz, Uuistremiro, Garsea rex”[63]. “Gundissalbo Telliz et uxor mea Flamba” donated “serna...in villa per suos terminos, de una parte flumine Uena...” to San Pedro de Cardeña by charter dated 25 Feb 915, witnessed by “...Montanus, Gundissalbo, Assuri, Albaro”[64]. m FLÁMULA, daughter of [FERNANDO Muñoz & his wife Gutina Díaz] (-after 24 Nov 929). “Gundissalbo Telliz...cum uxor mea Flamula” donated “serna...in Peternales” to San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 24 Sep 902, subscribed by “...Gutterre, Assuri, Beila Nuniz…”[65]. “Gundissalbo Telliz et uxor mea Flamula” donated its church to “sanctorum Georgii et Sanctii Ihoannis...in supurbio...Cerasio” by charter dated 25 Oct 913[66]. “Gundissalbo Telliz et uxor mea Flamba” donated “serna...in villa per suos terminos, de una parte flumine Uena...” to San Pedro de Cardeña by charter dated 25 Feb 915[67]. “Flamula” donated "situm in locum...Karadigna...Peternales iusta atrium Sancta Lucidia" to San Pedro de Cardeña, for the soul of “domno meo Gundissalbo Telliz”, by charter dated 24 Nov 929, the dating clause of which records “...comite Fredinando Assuriz in Castella”, witnessed by “...Sanzio Ennecoz, Munnio Obecoz, Didaco Obecoz...”[68]. Her parentage is suggested because her supposed sister-in-law Muniadomna and supposed nephew, Fernando González, confirmed documents of Flámula after the death of her husband[69]. Gonzalo & his wife had [three] children: i) [GUTIERRE [González] (-[24 Sep 902/25 Oct 913]). “Gundissalbo Telliz...cum uxor mea Flamula” donated “serna...in Peternales” to San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 24 Sep 902, subscribed by “...Gutterre, Assuri, Beila Nuniz…”[70]. The position of Gutierre and Ansur in the list of subscribers suggests that they may have been the donors´ children. This impression is reinforced by the inclusion of Gutierre´s supposed brother Ansur with the patronymic González in the charter dated 25 Oct 913 (see below).

D. CONDES en CASTILLA, descendants of MUNIO Núñez
1. [NUÑO Núñez "Rasura", son of NUÑO & his wife --- . He is named in the 12th century Crónica Najerense as one of the original judges appointed by Alfonso II King of Asturias to govern Castile[140]. The Chronicon de Cardeña records the appointment by “los Castellanos [de] dos Alcaydes Nuño Rasuera è Lain Calvo” during the reign of King Fruela, adding that “el Conde Ferran Gonzalez” descended from the former[141]. Martínez Díez classifies the existence of these judges as “legendario, producto de la creación literaria, sin ningún apoyo cronístico coetáneo ni documental”[142], which suggests that Nuño Núñez “Rasura” may not be a historical person at all. m ---. The name of Nuño´s wife is not known. Nuño & his wife had [one child]: a) [TERESA Núñez . The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos records that "Lain Calvo" married "D. Teresa Nuñez, hija de Nuño Rasura"[143]. However, this source is of doubtful reliability for the early generations. m LAÍN Calvo, son of ....]
1. MUNIO Núñez "él de Brañosera" . Pérez de Urbel that Munio Núñez may have been the same person as Nuño Núñez “Rasura”[144], although the names "Nuño" and "Munio" were different. “Monnio Nunnez et uxor mea Argilo” granted rights to Brañosera by charter dated 13 Oct 824, confirmed by “Gundisalvo Fernandiz comite” who names them as “avi mei”, further confirmed by “Fernando Gundisalviz comite et uxor mea Urraca”, and further confirmed by “Sancio Garcianez comes” who names “meos avos Gundisalvo Fernandiz et Fernando Gundisalvez”[145]. Brañosera is within the jurisdiction of Aguilar de Campoo, west of the source of the river Ebro in the lower mountains of Burgos[146]. m ARGILO, daughter of --- . “Monnio Nunnez et uxor mea Argilo” granted rights to Brañosera by charter dated 13 Oct 824, the same document including a charter dated 912 under which “Gundisalvo Fernandiz comite” confirmed these rights granted by “avii mei Monnio Nunniz et Argilo”, as well as a charter dated 1 Apr “Era TVI” under which “Fernando Gundisalviz comite et uxor mea Urracha” confirmed the rights granted by “avi mei Monnio Nunniz et de Argilo”[147]. Munio & his wife had [one child]: a) [NUÑO Núñez . “Monnio Nunnez et uxor mea Argilo” granted rights to Brañosera by charter dated 13 Oct 824, the same document including a charter dated 912 under which “Gundisalvo Fernandiz comite” confirmed these rights granted by “avii mei Monnio Nunniz et Argilo”, as well as a charter dated 1 Apr “Era TVI” under which “Fernando Gundisalviz comite et uxor mea Urracha” confirmed the rights granted by “avi mei Monnio Nunniz et de Argilo”[148]. This document indicates that Munio Núñez and his wife were “avi” of Gonzalo Fernández, normally translated as grandparents. However, “avi” is also used in the same document to describe the relationship between Munio Núñez and his more remote descendant Fernando González and in that case evidently indicates a more distant connection. It is possible therefore that the word was used in both places to indicate “ancestor”. The patronymic “Núñez” of the two supposed brothers Munio and Fernando indicates that their father was “Nuño” not “Munio”: these two names were distinct in the 9th to 12th century in the Iberian peninsular as shown by numerous examples of nobles with these names who are set out in the document ASTURIAS, GALICIA, LEÓN NOBILITY. An intervening generation is therefore likely between Munio Núñez “él de Brañosera” and Munio Núñez “él de Castrojeriz”. If this is correct, no direct reference has been found to Nuño Núñez in his own capacity. m ---. Nuño & his wife had two children:] i) MUNIO Núñez "él de Castrojeriz" (-after 910). The Chronicon Albeldense records the desertion of “castrum...Sigerici” [Castrojeriz] by “Munio filius Nunni” on the arrival of the Muslims in 882[149]. The Chronicon Albeldense records in 883 that the Muslims captured “castellum Sigerici”[150]. ["…Pelagius comes, Froila comes, Lucidius comes, Erus Fredernandi, Ascarius, Petrus, Munio Muniz comes, Osorio comes, Gundesaluus comes…" subscribed the charter dated 6 May 899 under which Alfonso III King of Asturias consecrated the church of Santiago de Compstela[151]. “...Munio Muniz comes...” has not otherwise been identified. He may have been Munio Núñez, although most of the other subscribers can be identified as Galician.] He is referred to as Conde en Castilla 1 Mar 899, 1 Feb 909 and 23 Jul 909, although he was probably not in control of the whole county[152]. The dating clause of a charter dated 1 Mar 899 records “rex Adefonso in Obieto et comite Munnio Nuniz in Castella et comite Gundissalbo Fernandiz in Uurgos”[153]. He is referred to as father-in-law of García de Asturias in Ximénez de Rada, suspected of preparing a rebellion against King Alfonso III in 910 and placing his son-in-law on the throne[154]. [Maybe m --- Rodríguez de Castilla, daughter of RODRIGO Conde en Castilla & his wife ---. This marriage is not referred to in Pérez de Urbel. It may be speculative in an attempt to explain the nomination of Nuño as Conde de Castilla, although it is not certain that his appointment was due to family connections.] Nuño & his wife had [two] children: (a) NUÑO Núñez "él de Roa" (-after [914/15]). Conde en Castilla 914/15. The Annales Complutense record that “Munio Nunniz” populated “Roda” in 912[155]. “Didaco Rodaniz et uxor mea Tarasia” restored the monastery of San Andrés de Boada in Roa, the properties defined in relation to property which “fuit de Munnio Nunnez comite et uxor illius”, by charter dated 1 Mar 937[156]. (b) [MUNIADOMNA (-after 13 Oct 913, maybe after 4 Mar 921). Her parentage is indicated by the Cronica de Sampiro which names "socer…eius [=Garsea] Nunio" when recording his rebellion, implying from the context of the passage that the marriage took place before her husband's accession[157]. The Cronica de Sampiro (interpolated, España Sagrada edition) names García´s father-in-law “Munio Fredinandi”[158]. From a chonological point of view, no suitable Munio Fernández has been identified among the condes en Castilla and it appears more likely that Muniadomna´s father was Munio Núñez. "Garsea princeps et Mumma domna regina" donated certain churches to Eslonza monastery by charter dated 30 Aug 912[159]. "Garseas Rex…cum uxore mea Munia domina" donated certain towns to Eslonza monastery by charter dated 13 Oct 913[160]. "Garseani…rex…cum congugie mea Muma doma regina" donated certain the town of Mutarraf to Eslonza monastery by charter dated 13 May 923 (presumably misdated), confirmed by "Ranimirus, Urraca regina…Gutierre Memendiz, Sesebutus Petri…"[161]. Pérez de Urbel says that her second marriage is not certain but "suspected"[162]. “Fredinando Assuriz et uxor mea Momadonna et filio nostro Assur Fernandiz” donated “serna in locum...Riuo de Uena iusta ecclesie Sancte Eolalie” to San Pedro de Cardeña by charter dated 4 Mar 921, witnessed by “Assur, Obeco Nuniz, Tello...”[163]. m [firstly] (before 910) GARCÍA de Asturias, son of ALFONSO III "el Magno" King of Asturias & his wife Jimena --- ([871]-Zamora 19 Jan 914, bur [Oviedo]). He succeeded his father in 910 as GARCÍA I King of Asturias and León. [m secondly FERNANDO Ansúrez, son of ANSUR --- & his wife --- (-930 or after). Conde en Castilla 927-930.] ii) FERNANDO Núñez "Niger/él de Castrosiero" (-after 870). His parentage is deduced from the charter which records that “Monnio Nunnez et uxor mea Argilo” granted rights to Brañosera dated 13 Oct 824, that “Gundisalvo Fernandiz comite” confirmed these rights granted by “avii mei Monnio Nunniz et Argilo” dated 912, and that “Fernando Gundisalviz comite et uxor mea Urracha” confirmed the rights granted by “avi mei Monnio Nunniz et de Argilo” dated 1 Apr “Era TVI”[164]. - see below.
FERNANDO Núñez "Niger/él de Castrosiero", son of [NUÑO Núñez & his wife ---] (-after 870). His parentage is deduced from the charter which records that “Monnio Nunnez et uxor mea Argilo” granted rights to Brañosera dated 13 Oct 824, that “Gundisalvo Fernandiz comite” confirmed these rights granted by “avii mei Monnio Nunniz et Argilo” dated 912, and that “Fernando Gundisalviz comite et uxor mea Urracha” confirmed the rights granted by “avi mei Monnio Nunniz et de Argilo” dated 1 Apr “Era TVI”[165]. m GUTINA Díaz, daughter of [DIEGO Rodríguez "Porcelos" Conde de Castilla & his [first/second] wife ---]. Pérez de Urbel emphasises that there is no proof of Gutina's parentage. However, it is suggested by her grandson conde Fernando González confirming donations to San Félix made by conde Diego Rodríguez[166]. Fernando & his wife had [four] children: 1. GONZALO Fernández de Lara (-after [932], bur Cereso de Río Tirón). The dating clause of a charter dated 1 Mar 899 records “rex Adefonso in Obieto et comite Munnio Nuniz in Castella et comite Gundissalbo Fernandiz in Uurgos”[167]. Conde en Burgos. His letter dated 912 to the town of Brañosera confirmed the rights granted by his paternal grandparents whom he names[168]. He built the castle of Lara in 902[169]. Conde en Castilla: the dating clause of a charter dated 1 Sep 912 records “Garsea principe in Legione et Gundissalbo Fernandiz in Castella”[170]. The Annales Complutense record that “Gunzalvo Fernandez” populated “Cozca et Clunia et S. Stephanum” in 912[171]. He is last mentioned in Castile in 916[172]. He may have been banished to Navarre from 920 to 930, a "Gundisalvus comes" witnessing royal Navarrese documents during this period[173], although if this is correct it is surprising that his wife did not accompany him, established as she was in the castle of Lara during that time. "…Nunus Guter, Lucidus Vimarine, Didacus Federnandici, Gundisaluus Betonice...Gundisaluus, Guincaluus Ferdinandiz, Federnandus Ansuriz, Gudesteus…" subscribed the charter dated to [922] which records an agreement between the bishops of Lugo and Santiago “pro commissos Prucios et Visancos”[174]. “Gundesalbo Fernandez...” witnessed the charter dated 27 Jun 931 under which Alfonso IV King of León donated "Uilla Frida...usque in flumen Aslanzon" to San Pedro de Cardeña[175]. "Gundisalvus Fredinandiz comes" witnessed a 932 donation, signing immediately after King Ramiro II and before "Fredenandus comes" (presumed to be Fernando González), Pérez de Urbel suggesting that this is the same person as Gonzalo Fernández de Lara[176]. m (before 912) MUNIADOMNA, daughter of --- (-[5 Aug 935/938], bur Santa María de Lara). "Momadonna cometessa" donated property to the monastery of Santa María de Lara, confirmed by her sons "Fredinando Gundisalviz, Ramiro Gundisalviz", by charter dated 28 Jan 929[177]. The origin of Muniadomna is unknown. Pérez de Urbel suggests that she was Muniadomna, daughter of Ramiro de Asturias titular King of León & his wife Urraca ---, based on her supposed mother being present in the castle of Lara, which belonged to Muniadomna, when she witnessed two charters in 927. He also points out the apparent corroboration from the naming of her second son after his supposed maternal grandfather. Muniadomna is referred to as "comitissima", and her descendants referred to in Arab sources as the "Banu Muma" as a tribute to her exceptional character, which may also suggest an illustrious ancestry[178]. “Moma Donna cometissa...cum filiis meis, quorum nomina subter exarata fiunt” donated property to the monastery of San Millán de Belbimbre by charter dated 1 Feb 929 (the dating clause stating “regnante...comite Fredinando Gundesalviz in Castella”), witnessed by “Fredinando Gundesalviz, Ramiro Gundesalviz...”[179]. “Munia dona et filius meus Ferrandus proles Gundesalvi” established the territory of the señorío de Lara by charter dated 1 Jan 931[180]. “Mumadomna cometissa...cum filio meo Fredinando Gundissalbiz...comes et uxor sua domna Sancia seu neptis meis Gundissalbo Fernandiz vel Sanzio Fernandiz” donated “locum...Balzaramio...” to San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 5 Aug 935, witnessed by "Abolmondar Sarraziniz, Munnio Bellitiz, Muza iben Galeph, Beila Telliz..."[181].

"Momadonna cometessa" donated property to the monastery of Santa María de Lara, confirmed by her sons "Fredinando Gundisalviz, Ramiro Gundisalviz", by charter dated 28 Jan 929[182]. His parentage is confirmed by the charter of his grandson Sancho García Conde de Castilla in which the latter names his paternal ancestors as far back as Munio Núñez and his wife Argila[183]. Conde de Castilla. - see below. b) RAMIRO González (-[1 Feb 929/1 Jan 930]).

He has not been identified in later documents, which suggests that he may have died soon after. In particular, he is not named in the charter dated 1 Jan 931 under which his mother and brother “Munia dona et filius meus Ferrandus proles Gundesalvi” established the territory of the señorío de Lara[186]. 2.

A charter dated 1 May 932 records the judgment in a dispute involving the monastery of Cardeñas, in the presence of “comite Fredinando Gundissalbiz et suo alfieriz Gomiz Didaz et de Nunu Fernandez et de Munio Gundisalbiz et de Fredinando Didaz et de Albaro Munnioz”, the dating clause of which names "…comite Fredinando Gundisalviz in Castella"[192]. m ---.

Her parentage is suggested because her supposed sister-in-law Muniadomna and supposed nephew, Fernando González, confirmed documents of Flámula after the death of her husband[199]. m GONZALO Téllez, son of TELLO --- (-[25 Feb 915/24 Nov 929]).

E. OTHER CONDES en CASTILLA

Conde. “Gundesindus comes” donated property, including “villa...Erunia cum suo monasterio Sancte Eulalie...villa...Bao et Tulex et...Lencres...”, to the monastery of San Vicente de Fistoles where he wished to be buried by charter dated 30 Nov 816, subscribed by “Silo cognomento Breto...”[200].
1. ODOARIO (-[after 20 Jan 915]). Conde [de Castilla y Auca]. The Cronica de Sampiro (interpolated, España Sagrada edition), after quoting Papal correspondence relating to Santiago de Compostela, records a council held in Oviedo dated 7 May 899 in the presence of all the bishops and “Alvarus Lunensis comes, Veremundus Legionensis comes, Sarracinus Astoricæ et Verizo comes, Veremundus Torrensis comes, Berotus in Deza comes, Ermenegildus Tudæ et Portugalæ comes, Arias filius eius Eminio comes, Pelagius Breganciæ comes, Odoarius Castellæ et Aucæ comes, Silus Prucii comes, Erus in Lugo comes”[201]. The territorial attributions are atypical of contemporary documentation which suggests that the charter is spurious. However, many of the names are recognizable as noblemen who are recorded at that time in other documents. “...Odoarius Castellæ et Aucæ comes...” has not otherwise been identified. ["…Lucidus, Nunus, Didacus, Munius, Sarracenus...Oduarius, Froila, Vimara, Auriolus…" subscribed the charter dated 30 Jan 915 under which Ordoño II King of León donated “villiam...Cornelianam territorio Gallecie” to Santiago de Compostela[202]. It is not certain that “Oduarius” in this subscription list is the same person as the earlier Conde Odoario.]

"Momadonna cometessa" donated property to the monastery of Santa María de Lara, confirmed by her sons "Fredinando Gundisalviz, Ramiro Gundisalviz", by charter dated 28 Jan 929[205]. His parentage is confirmed by the charter of his grandson Sancho García Conde de Castilla in which the latter names his paternal ancestors as far back as Munio Núñez & his wife Argila[206].

During his rule, he united the territory of Castile into a single county, incorporating in particular Lantarón in 935, Cerezo and Grañón in 936[212]. The dating clause of a charter dated 18 Feb 935, under which “Gutier” sold “vinea in Liciniana” to the bishop of Valpuesta, records “regnante domino Ranemiri et comite Fredenando Gundesalbiz in Lantarone”[213]. Following the humiliating peace imposed on the kingdom of Navarre by Abd al-Rahman III Caliph of Córdoba in 934, the Caliph invaded Castile, sacking Burgos and destroying the monastery of San Pedro de Cardeña before moving into the territory of León[214]. However, Conde Fernando allied himself with Ramiro II King of León and Queen Toda regent of Navarre, their combined forces defeating the Caliph's troops at Alhandega/al-Khandaq, near Simancas in 939. "Fredinando Gondissalvez tocius Castelle comes" donated property to the monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla by charter dated 938, confirmed by "Gondissalvo Fredinandez, Sancio Fredinandez…"[215]. Conde Fernando exploited this victory by recapturing Sepúlveda in 940[216]. “Comes Fredinandus Gundisalviz cum uxore mea Sanzia comitissa et cum filiis meis Gundisalvus Fredinandi et Garsea Fredinandi et Sancio Fredinandi et Munio Fredinandi et domna Fronilde” donated the monastery of San Miguel de Javilla to San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 941, witnessed by “Sarracenus, Bermudo Fannez, Gundisalvo de Aza...”[217]. The Cronica de Sampiro records that "Fredenandus Gundissalui et Didacus Munionis" rebelled against King Ramiro II, who captured them and imprisoned them "unum in Legione, alterum in Gordone"[218], dated to [943/44] by Torres[219], although their imprisonment was short-lived. "Fredinando comes…cum uxore mea…Sancia cometissa" donated property to the monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla by charter dated 944, confirmed by "…Gundissalvo Fernandez, Sancio Fernandez, Garcia Fernandez…"[220].

The Cronica de Sampiro records that "avunculo suo…Garsiano rege Pampilonensium, necnon Fredenandus Gundissalui Burgensium comes" helped Sancho in his rebellion against Ordoño III King of León[224]. Conde in Álava: the dating clause of a charter dated to [952], under which “Tellu presbiter” donated half his property to Valpuesta, records “regnante...comite Fredenando Gondesalbiz in Alaba et in Castella”[225]. Caliph Abd al-Rahman's troops launched further raids against Galicia and Castile between 953 and 955, but were defeated by Conde Fernando near San Esteban de Gormaz in 955[226]. Conde Fernando became embroiled in the civil war in León, supporting in turn King Sancho I and later his son-in-law King Ordoño IV, but was captured by troops from Navarre at Nájera in 960[227]. After being released by Urraca de Navarra, whom he married, he formed an alliance with Navarre and Barcelona against Caliph Al-Hakam II. The alliance was unsuccessful and Conde Fernando lost San Esteban de Gormaz and Atienza to the Caliph's troops[228]. Although Castile was considerably weakened by Muslim attacks during the last years of his rule, Conde Fernando had been a dynamic leader who established the full autonomy of the county of Castile, and competently defended it against Muslim incursions. His exploits are commemorated in vernacular Castilian romances[229]. "Fredinando Gundissalviz comite…cum filio eius Munio Fredinandiz" confirmed a donation of property at Montorio to the monastery of San Adrian y San Miguel Arcangel by charter dated 6 May 968[230]. The Chronicon Burgense records the death in 970 of “comes Fernandus Gundisalvi”[231]. m firstly ([932]) as her third husband, SANCHA Sánchez de Navarra, widow firstly of ORDOÑO II King of León and secondly of ÁLVARO Herrámeliz Conde en Álava, daughter of SANCHO I Garces King of Navarre & his second wife Toda Aznárez de Larraún (after 900-[9 Jun 952/29 Nov 955]). The Codex de Roda names "Garsea rex et domna Onneca et domna Sanzia et domna Urraca…domna Belasquita, necnon et domna Orbita" as the children of "Sanzio Garseanis" and his wife "Tota Asnari", stating that Sancha married "Ordonii imperatoris, postea…Albaro Harramelliz de Alaba, demumque…Fredenando comitis"[232]. "Fredenando Gundisalviz et uxor mea Sancia" donated property to the abbey of Silos by charter dated 3 Jun 919 (although this must be misdated), confirmed by "Munio Didace, Sarracine Scemonoz, Garcie Bençemaloçe, Frande Arguisso, Garcie Alvarez"[233]. "Comes Ferdinandus Gundisalui et uxor mea Sancia" donated property to the monastery of San Quirice de los Ausines by charter dated 30 Apr 929 [must be misdated considering the date of death of Sancha´s second husband][234]. “Mumadomna cometissa...cum filio meo Fredinando Gundissalbiz...comes et uxor sua domna Sancia seu neptis meis Gundissalbo Fernandiz vel Sanzio Fernandiz” donated “locum...Balzaramio...” to San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 5 Aug 935[235]. “Comes Fredinandus Gundisalviz cum uxore mea Sanzia comitissa et cum filiis meis Gundisalvus Fredinandi et Garsea Fredinandi et Sancio Fredinandi et Munio Fredinandi et domna Fronilde” donated the monastery of San Miguel de Javilla to San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 941[236]. "Fredinando comes…cum uxore mea…Sancia cometissa" donated property to the monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla by charter dated 944, confirmed by "…Gundissalvo Fernandez, Sancio Fernandez, Garcia Fernandez…"[237]. m secondly (before 29 Nov [955]) as her first husband, URRACA, daughter of --- (-12 Jul 1041). "Comite Fredinando Gondessalvez et cometessa domna Urraca" are named as present in a charter dated 29 Nov [955] which relates a dispute about exemptions and fines[238]. According to Europäische Stammtafeln[239], she was Urraca de Navarra, daughter of García III Sánchez King of Navarre & [his second wife Teresa ---], but the primary source which confirms that this is right has not yet been identified. Del Pino assumes that this parentage is correct when he records that Urraca took the initiative to free Fernando González Conde de Castilla, captured by the forces of King García III in 960, married him and escaped to Burgos[240]. She is not named in any of the documents in the compilation relating to the county of Castile[241]. "Willelmus Sancius comes et dominus totius Vasconie, cum Urraca sua muliere" donated the church of Sainte-Susanne to the abbey of Saint-Jean de Sorde by undated charter[242]. According to Europäische Stammtafeln[243], she married secondly (after 14 Jul 972) Guillaume Sánchez Comte de Gascogne. The primary source which confirms her second marriage has not yet been identified either, although the charter dated 992 under which Sancho King of Navarre donated property to the monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla is signed, among others, by "…Sancio filius Gogelmi comitis…" (apparently Urraca's son by this second marriage)[244], King Sancho being the brother of Urraca de Navarra. "Willelmus Sancius comes et dominus totius Vasconie, cum Urraca sua muliere" donated the church of Sainte-Susanne to the abbey of Saint-Jean de Sorde by undated charter[245]. "Willelmus Sancius comes et dominus totius Vasconie, cum Urraca sua muliere" donated the church of Sainte-Susanne to the abbey of Saint-Jean de Sorde by undated charter[246]. The Historia Abbatiæ Condomensis quotes a charter dated 29 Jul 1011 under which "Ugo…Præsul, secundum lineam carnis eidem Duci propinquis et affinis" donated property to the convent of Condom, for the souls of "meorumque parentum, item Garsiæ-Sanctii Comitis et filii sui Sanctii-Garsiæ Comitis, et Guillermi-Sanctii Comitis et Gimbaldi Episcopi, et Guillelmi Comitis, et Garsiæ Comitis, et Bernardi-Guillelmi Comitis, et Urachæ Comitissæ"[247]. She died before 3 Apr [1009], the date of the charter under which her son "Bernardus Willelmus comes…cum germano meo Sancio" confirmed, "annuente beatæ memoriæ matre mea Urraca", the foundation of Saint-Sever by "genitor meus Willelmus Sancio comes", this wording suggesting that Urraca died only shortly before the confirmation especially as the document is purportedly signed by "Urracæ comitissæ"[248]. The necrology of Saint-Sever records the death "IV Id Jul…1041" of "Urraca comitissa"[249]. However, either the year is incorrect or this entry refers to another "Urraca comitissa". Even without the evidence of the 3 Apr [1009] charter, Urraca would have been well over 90 years in 1041 if this entry refers to the wife of Guillaume Sancho. Conde Fernando & his first wife had seven children: 1. GONZALO Fernández (before 934-after 10 Dec 959). “Mumadomna cometissa...cum filio meo Fredinando Gundissalbiz...comes et uxor sua domna Sancia seu neptis meis Gundissalbo Fernandiz vel Sanzio Fernandiz” donated “locum...Balzaramio...” to San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 5 Aug 935[250].

MUNIADOMNA Fernández (-before 1015).

The Codex de Roda records the marriage of "regem Sanctium" and "Urracam, filiam comitis Sanctii de Castella"[284], although it is chronologically more acceptable that Urraca was the daughter of Conde Fernando, which is confirmed by the charter dated 29 Jun 971 under which "Endregoto Galindonis et prole eius Sancio Garseanis rex et uxor eius Urraca Fredenandizi" donated property to the monastery of San Pedro de Siresa[285]. The Chronicon Burgense also states incorrectly that King Sancho was “gener comitis Sancii”[286].

Conde García allied himself with Ghalib bin Abd al-Rahman, who had been Caliph al-Hakam II's trusted general, and opposed the rise to power of Muhammad bin Abi Amir "al-Mansur/the Victorious" after the accession of al-Hakam's son Caliph Hisham in 976. However, al-Mansur led several successful campaigns against Castile which was further weakened during the last years of the rule of Conde García, whose son eventually rebelled against him[297]. "Garsias Ferdinandez…cum coniuge mea Ava comitisa" founded the monastery of Infantado de Covarrubias, offering "filiam…nostram Urracam" as a nun there, by charter dated 25 Dec 978, confirmed by "Sancio Garsea, Gundisalbo Garsea…Sancio rex, Urraka regina, rege Scemeno, Fortuni Garsea, Didago Aznariz, Tellu Gundisalbiz, Sancio Ennegonis, Tota comitissa, Fronilde comitissa…"[298]. The Annales Complutense record that “Sancius Garsia” rebelled against “patrem suum comitem Garsia Fernandez” in 990[299]. "Garcia…comes" confirmed a donation to the monastery of San Miguel de Pedroso by charter dated 979, confirmed by "…Gundessalvo Fredinandez, Gundissalvo Arderiz…Hani Godestioz, Didaco Fredinandez, Alvaro Sarrazinez, Didaco Scemenoz, Gotier Gomiz"[300]. The Chronicon Burgense records that “comes Garsea Ferdinandi” was captured and wounded “VIII Kal Jan” in 995 “in ripa de Dorio”, died five days later while being taken to Córdoba, and was buried “ad Caradignam”[301]. The Annales Complutense record the death “Kal Aug” in 995 of “Conde Garci Fernandez” after being captured by the Moors[302]. m ([958/61]) AVA de Ribagorza, daughter of RAIMUNDO [II] Conde de Ribagorza & his wife Gersende de Fezensac (-after 995, bur San Pedro de Cardeña). The Codex de Roda names "Regemundo ac domno Galindo seu domna Aba" as the children of "Uernardus" and his wife[303]. The end 13th century “Crònica d´Alaó Renovada” records that “Ova filia Regimundi” married “comitis Sanctii de Castella” (error for García)[304]. "Garcia comes" and his wife "Ava" donated property to the monastery of Arlanza by charter dated 12 Jul 970[305]. "Garsea Ferrandiz comite…cum coniuge mea Ava comitissa" donated property to the monastery of San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 26 Apr 971[306]. A charter dated 7 Sep 972 records the exchange of Covarrubias between the abbot of Infantado de Covarrubias and "domno Garsea comite sive domna Ava cometissa et filiis adque filiabus vestris"[307]. "Garssia Ferdinandi…comes et imperator Castelle…cum uxore mea Abba comitisse" granted fuero to Castrojeriz by charter dated 8 Mar 974, subscribed by "Sanctio filio nostra, Urraca filia nostra…"[308]. "Garsias Ferdinandez…cum coniuge mea Ava comitisa" founded the monastery of Infantado de Covarrubias, offering "filiam…nostram Urracam" as a nun there, by charter dated 25 Dec 978[309]. According to popular legend, she fomented revolt against her husband and even offered her hand in marriage to a Muslim in exchange for killing Count García, but the historical accuracy of this is doubtful[310]. Conde García & his wife had [seven] children: 1. [MAYOR (-after [early 1035]). A charter of Santa Maria de Gerri dated Apr 18 names "Raimundi Suniarii comtis et uxor mea comitissa…Maior"[311]. Her parentage is stated in the end 13th century “Crònica d´Alaó Renovada” which records that, after the death of “Guillelmum Ysarni, quem genuerat Ysarnus prefatus ex concubina”, Ribagorza was inherited by “rex Sancius...jure propinquitatis”, explained because “Major comitissa soror comitis Sancii de Castella” married “comitis Paliarensis Raimundi Suniarii” and remained in Ribagorza after their marriage was ended “consanguinitatis causa”, and because “rex Sancius Pampilonensis” married “filiam predicti comitis Sancii de Castella...Majorem”[312]. However, this appears doubtful. If she was Conde García's daughter, it is surprising that she did not witness the 8 Mar 974 agreement under which her supposed sister Urraca was consecrated to the monastery of Covarrubias. In addition, the considerable age difference between her and her supposed husband (if, as stated in Europäische Stammtafeln[313], his mother's first husband died before 994) seems unlikely. A more likely possibility is that Mayor was the daughter, not sister, of Sancho Conde de Castilla. After her repudiation, she returned to Castile where she is recorded in 1028 as abbess of the monastery of San Miguel de Pedroso and in early 1035 with Sancho III King of Navarre[314]. m (repudiated [1026/27]) as his first wife, RAIMUNDO [III] de Pallars, son of SUNYER [I] Conde de Paillars & his first wife Ermengarde [de Rouergue] ([995/1000]-after 1047).

ELVIRA García (-Dec 1017). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Elvira" as the second legitimate wife of King Vermudo[323]. Her parentage is confirmed by Ibn-Khaldun who records King Alfonso V as "petit-fils par sa mère du seigneur d´Alava Garcia Fernandez"[324]. Regent of León 999-1007.

Oñeca, hija del Conde Garci Fernández, y hermana del Conde Don Sancho García” was a nun at San Juan de Cillaperlata and afterwards was “abadesa primera de Oña”[331]. Martínez Díez indicates that the primary sources which confirm this information no longer survive[332]. Abbess of San Salvador de Oña 1045. m (995) polygamously, MUHAMMAD bin Abi Amir "al-Mansur/the Victorious" Regent of Córdoba (-10 Aug 1002).

He rebelled against his father in 990, supported by Ibn Abu Amir[336], effectively dividing Castile into two parts. The Annales Complutense record that “Sancius Garsia” rebelled against “patrem suum comitem Garsia Fernandez” in 990[337]. He succeeded in 995 as Conde de Castilla. Ibn-Khaldun states that Alfonso V King of León succeeded under the regency of "le comte de Galice Menendo Gonzalez" but that this was disputed by "Sancho fils de Garcia, l´oncle maternel d´Alphonse", the dispute being arbitrated by "Abdalmelic fils d´Almanzor" who ordered "au juge des chrétiens [de Cordoue] Açbagh ibn --- de décider…[et il] prononça en faveur de Menendo Gonzalez"[338]. "Sancio comite et Urraca cometissa soror mea" granted rights to the monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla by charter dated 1003, signed by "…Fernando Beilaz, Oveco Alvarez, Beila Alvaroz, senior Assur Nunniz dominate Ponticurbo, Alvaro Gomiz, Tellu Didaz, Beila Gutier"[339]. He allied himself with the Berbers in 1009 to fight and depose Caliph Muhammad. The Chronicon Burgense records that “comes Sancius” destroyed Córdoba in 1009[340]. He was given a formal reception in Córdoba by the new Caliph Sulayman, and received strategic castles as his reward. Ibn-Khaldun records that "le seigneur d´Alava Sancho, fils de Garcia" was killed "par le roi des Basques" in [21 Jun 1015/9 Jun 1016][341]. The Chronicon Burgense records the death in 1017 of “comes Sancius”[342]. m ([985/95]) URRACA, daughter of (-[murdered Covarrubias] after 21 Dec 1037). "Sancius comes cum coniuge mea Urracha" offered "filiam nostram Tegridiam" to the monastery of San Salvador de Oña by charter dated 12 Feb 1011[343]. Her parentage is not known. Salazar y Acha suggests that she was Urraca Gómez, daughter of conde Gómez Díaz de Saldaña & his wife Muniadomna Fernández de Castilla[344]. He bases this especially on the introduction of the name Tegridia into the family of the condes de Castilla, the name of the mother of conde Gómez Díaz. Regent of the county of Castile during the minority of her son. The Annales Complutense record that “comitissam Urracam” was killed (by Muslims) “in Covas Rubias” in “Era 978 (940)”[345]. The date is clearly incorrect if this entry refers to the widow of Conde Sancho but it is possible that it is misplaced by a century. The Anales Toledanos record that “la Condesa Doña Urraca” was killed “en Cuevarrubias” in 1038[346]. Conde Sancho & his wife had five children: 1. MUNIA Mayor de Castilla ([990/95]-after 13 Jul 1066). The Crónica Latina records that “la huerfana doña Mayor, hija del…conde Sancho” married “al rey de Navarra y Nájera Sancho, nieto de Sancho Abarca”[347].

"Domna Major regina" confirmed a charter of "Sancius Hispaniarum rex" dated 26 Jun 1033 which related to concessions to the monastery of Oriense[351]. "Sancius…rex…cum coniuge mea regina domina Maiora" donated the monastery of San Sebastian to the monastery of Leire by charter dated 17 Apr 1014, redated to [1030][352]. She became a nun after her the death of her husband. She founded the monastery of San Martín de Fromista 13 Jul 1066, the document naming her father but not her husband[353]. The testament of "Maior regina Christi ancilla", in which she requests burial in the monastery of San Martín de Frómista, is dated 13 Jun 1066[354]. m (before 27 Jun 1011) SANCHO III “el Mayor” King of Navarre, son of GARCÍA IV Sánchez "el Tremulo" King of Navarre & his wife Jimena Fernández ([990/92]-murdered 18 Oct 1035).

GARCÍA Sánchez de Castilla ([Nov] 1009-murdered León 13 May 1029, bur San Salvador de Oña). The Chronicon Burgense records the birth in 1009 of “Infans Garsea”[361]. The Annales Complutense record the birth in Nov 1013 of “Infans eius [Sancii Garsia] filius…Garsia Sanchez”[362], although many of the dates in this source are inaccurate. He succeeded his father in 1017 as Conde de Castilla, under the regency of his mother until 1025. “Garseani comiti” donated property “in territorio de Campo iuxta flumine Ibrio” to Santillana del Mar, for the souls of “parentum meorum Sancioni comite et Urracha comitissa”, by charter dated 7 Apr [1018/28][363].

"Garsea comes" donated property "in Villa" to the monastery of San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 23 Oct 1024[365]. The Chronicon Burgense records that “Infans Garsea” was killed in León in 1028[366]. The Annales Complutense record the death in 1026 of “Comes Garsia”[367], although many of the dates in this source are inaccurate. Salazar Acha recounts[368] the legend that a "conde Vela" was expelled by Fernán González Conde de Castilla, took refuge in León, and that his three sons were the murderers of Conde García II on the latter's arrival in León for his marriage, but emphasises that the story is first related in the 13th century Chronicon Mundi of Lucas de Tuy and the subsequent work of Archbishop Rodrigo Ximénez de Rada[369]. On the death of conde García, his sister succeeded as de iure Condesa de Castilla, but her husband claimed the county in her name and installed their son Fernando as Conde de Castilla.

"Sancius…rex" recommended the rule of St Benedict to the monastery of Leire by charter dated 21 Oct 1022, subscribed by "Eximina regina mater regis, Regina domna Muma, Garsia et Ranimirus, Gundesalbus et Fernandus"[371]. The charter of "Sancius Hispaniarum rex" dated 26 Jun 1033 relating to concessions to the monastery of Oriense was confirmed by his sons (in order) "Ranimirus…Garsea…Fredinandus"[372]. His father installed him as Conde de Castilla in 1029, in succession to his maternal uncle. The Historia Silense records that King Sancho granted "Castella" to "Fernandum"[373]. Under the division of territories organised by his father prior to his death, he received Castile, succeeding in 1035 as FERNANDO I "el Magno" King of Castile. With the help of his brother García V King of Navarre, he defeated and killed his brother-in-law Vermudo III King of León[374], proclaiming himself King of León and Galicia 4 Sep 1037. Crowned at Santa María de León 22 Jun 1038[375], after which he used the title "imperatur". Ferdinand I King of Castile confirmed the union of the monastery of San Martín del Río with San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 31 Aug 1050, subscribed by "Sanctius prolis regis, Adefonsus filius regis, Garsea filio regis, Urraca filia regis, Tegridia filia regis…"[376]. King Fernando's reign was a period of rapid Castilian expansion. He defeated and killed his brother García Sánchez III King of Navarre at Atapuerca Sep 1054, requiring the cession of the Bureba district on the west bank of the upper Ebro River[377]. The close ties between Burgundy and Spain started during the reign of Fernando I King of Castile, who established an annual rent of 120 ounces of gold in favour of the Abbey of Cluny some time after 1055[378]. He allied himself with Ibn-Hud to attack the Taifa Kingdom of Toledo, from whom he forced the payment of a large tribute or paria, which became the established way of raising revenues for the Christian kingdoms[379]. In 1057, he invaded the territory of the Aftasids of Badajoz, capturing Lamego 29 Nov 1057 and Viseu 25 Jul 1058. He also attacked Santarem, forcing its ruler to pay 5,000 dinars a year to maintain a truce. He exacted annual parias from Zaragoza from 1060. King Fernando donated property "in Compostella…[qui] fuit…de Odrozia comitssa…cum filia sua Gyloira et…nepus suum comitem Monninum Ruderici" to Celanova by charter dated 19 Aug 1061[380]. He conquered Coimbra after a 6 month siege ending 25 Jul 1064. He also reclaimed much of the traditional Castilian territory held by Sancho IV García King of Navarre, but this was apparently a political and diplomatic rather than a military process[381]. A great council meeting in 1064 agreed a division of King Fernando's territories (as well as the rights to annual parias from the Taifa kingdoms) between his sons[382], the agreement being implemented after his death. The precise geographical details of the split are set out by Reilly and in the Chronicon Regum Legionensium[383]. "Fredernandus…Legionensis rex…cum coniuge mea regina dna Sancia et filiis meis" confirmed the privileges of Santiago de Compostela by charter dated 10 Mar 1065, subscribed by "Sancius filius regis, Adefonsus filius regis, Garsea filius regis, Urraca filia regis, Geloira filia regis…"[384]. The Chronicon Regum Legionensium records the death of Fernando I King of Castile "in the era 1103 (1065)" after reigning for 18 years and his burial with his wife Sancha "in the city of León"[385]. The Chronicon Lusitanum records the death of “Rex Domnus Fernandus” in 1103 (adjusted to 1065) and his burial “VII Kal Jan…in Legionensi civitate”[386]. The Chronicon Burgense records the death “in die S. Eugeniæ” in 1065 of “Fernandus Rex”[387].

The Anales Toledanos record the death in 1101 of “la Reyna Doña Urraca, parienta del Rey Ferrando è de la Reyna Doña Sancha”[409]. 2. SANCHO de Castilla y León ([1036]-murdered Zamora 7 Oct 1072, bur Monastery of Oña[410]). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names (in order) "Urraca, Sancho, Alfonso, García and Elvira" and the children of King Fernando and Queen Sancha[411]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines, in a curious mixture of information about the contemporary kings of Castile and Aragon, names "Sanctium qui aliam matrem habuit, Petrum cognomento Alfunsem sive Hildefonsum et Fernandum" as the three sons of "rex…in Galicia Sanctus sive Fernandus"[412]. Ferdinand I King of Castile confirmed the union of the monastery of San Martín del Río with San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 31 Aug 1050, subscribed by "Sanctius prolis regis, Adefonsus filius regis, Garsea filio regis, Urraca filia regis, Tegridia filia regis…"[413]. He took part in the defence of Graus against the Moors 8 May 1063, in the course of which his uncle Ramiro I King of Aragon was killed. "Fredernandus…Legionensis rex…cum coniuge mea regina dna Sancia et filiis meis" confirmed the privileges of Santiago de Compostela by charter dated 10 Mar 1065, subscribed by "Sancius filius regis, Adefonsus filius regis, Garsea filius regis, Urraca filia regis, Geloira filia regis…"[414]. Under the partition of lands in his father’s will, he received Castile and the parias from the Taifa state of Zaragoza, succeeding in 1065 as SANCHO II King of Castile. He invaded Navarre in 1067 to recover certain frontier areas, triggering the "war of the three Sanchos". Although defeated by Sancho Ramírez King of Aragon, he negotiated an advantageous peace, acquiring Pancorbo and Oña. He also attempted to conquer León, fighting his brother Alfonso VI at Llantada 19 Jul 1068, but then joined forces with him to deprive their brother García of Galicia. The alliance with Alfonso was, however, short-lived: King Sancho defeated his brother at Golpejera in Jan 1072, and was crowned king of León at León 12 Jan 1072[415]. "Burgensis dominans, tocius Castelle rex…Sancius" donated property to the monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla by charter dated 18 Jan [1070], subscribed by "domna Urraca soror regis, domna Elvira soror regis…"[416]. At first imprisoned by King Sancho, their sister Urraca persuaded Sancho to exile Alfonso to Toledo. Urraca then rebelled against Sancho at Zamora, during the siege of which King Sancho was murdered. The Chronicon Burgense records that “Sancius Rex” was killed “in Zamora” in 1072[417]. The Annales Complutense record that “Regem Sancium” was killed “Non Oct…in Zamora” in 1072[418]. The Chronicon Regum Legionensium records that Sancho II King of Castile "was killed by treachery by a soldier named Vellito Ariulfo outside the walls of Zamora which he had besieged" and was buried "in Castile in the monastery of San Salvador de Oña"[419]. The "Corónicas" Navarras name "Belid Alfóns" as the murderer of Sancho King of Castile[420]. [Betrothed to CONSTANZA, daughter of --- & his wife [Etiennette] [de Foix] (-after 29 Nov 1074). Salazar y Acha discusses this possible betrothal and the identity of the betrothed[421]. The Crónica Najerense records that “infans domnus Sancius, quem rex Garsias Pampilonensium ex concubina habuerat” abducted “filiam regine Stephanie”, who was betrothed to “Santius rex”, and took her to the court of the Moorish king of Zaragoza and later to Ramiro I King of Aragon, triggering the war between Castille and Aragon during the course of which the Aragonese king was killed in 1064[422]. Salazar y Acha hypothesises that this alleged daughter of Stephanie de Foix, wife of García V King of Navarre, was Constanza, born from an otherwise unrecorded earlier marriage with a noble at the court of Barcelona[423]. He cites the charter dated 29 Nov 1074 under which Sancho IV King of Navarre granted “unas casas en la ciudad de Calahorra” to “germano meo domno Sancio et uxori vestra vel germana mea domna Constanza”[424], suggesting that it would be unusual for King Sancho to refer to his brother´s wife as “germana” unless there was also a blood relationship between them. However, this hypothesis, although appealing, appears unlikely to be correct because Queen Estefania does not include Constanza in her testament dated to [1066] which names all her other known children[425].] m ([late 1070/before 26 Mar 1071]) ALBERTA, daughter of ---. Florez cites two charters dated 26 Mar 1071 and 10 May 1071 which name "Alberta" as the wife of King Sancho but does not cite the primary sources[426]. "Sancius Rex Castellæ…cum uxore mea Alberta Regina" granted the señorío of the monastery of Rezmondo to "Veremundo Sandinez" by charter dated 26 Mar 1071[427]. Nothing is known about her except her name. Reilly speculates that she was from outside Spain, her name being virtually unknown in the country at the time[428]. The name "Alberta" suggests a connection with "Audebert", used among the family of the Counts of Périgord and La Marche. 3. [TEGRIDIA de Castilla y León (-after 31 Aug 1050). Ferdinand I King of Castile confirmed the union of the monastery of San Martín del Río with San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 31 Aug 1050, subscribed by "Sanctius prolis regis, Adefonsus filius regis, Garsea filio regis, Urraca filia regis, Tegridia filia regis…"[429]. It is possible that Tegridia in this document represents an error for Elvira, who is not named as a subscriber.] 4. ELVIRA de Castilla y León ([1037/39]-15 Nov 1101[430]). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names (in order) "Urraca, Sancho, Alfonso, García and Elvira" and the children of King Fernando and Queen Sancha[431]. She was her parents' third child, according to the Historia Silense[432]. "Fredernandus…Legionensis rex…cum coniuge mea regina dna Sancia et filiis meis" confirmed the privileges of Santiago de Compostela by charter dated 10 Mar 1065, subscribed by "Sancius filius regis, Adefonsus filius regis, Garsea filius regis, Urraca filia regis, Geloira filia regis…"[433]. Under the terms of the agreement of 1064 which divided her father's territories between her brothers, she and her sister were granted "all the monasteries of [the] kingdom in which they might live to their lives' end without the bond of a husband"341, the resulting lordship being known later as the "Infantado"342. Titular Queen of Toro. The bishops of Pamplona, Calahorra, Burgos and Castilla la Vieja confirmed the privileges of the monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla by charter dated 1067, in the presence of "regis Sancii, filii Fredinandi regis, domna Elvira germana regis…"[434]. "Geluira regina" donated property "in Lemabus villam…in Triacastella…et…in Valle Carcere" to Santiago de Compostela by charter dated 10 Dec 1068, subscribed by "Veremudus proles Hordonii com…"[435]. "Burgensis dominans, tocius Castelle rex…Sancius" donated property to the monastery of San Millán de la Cogolla by charter dated 18 Jan [1070], subscribed by "domna Urraca soror regis, domna Elvira soror regis…"[436]. “Urraca et Elvira Ferdinandi Imperatoris magni filiæ” transferred the church of Auca to “ecclesiam S. Maride Campo de Gamonare” by charter dated 1074[437]. "Urraka [et]…Gelvira sorores mihi" consented to a donation to Cluny by "Adefonsus…princeps" dated 22 May 1077[438]. "Urraca soror regis, Gelvira soror regis…" subscribed the charter dated 17 Aug 1077 which records an agreement between Bishop Diego Peláez and the abbot of Antealtares, San Fagundo[439]. "Geloira Fredinandi principis filia" donated the monastery of Piloño to Santiago de Compostela by charter dated 25 Apr 1087[440]. "…Urraka Giluira Ferdinandi regis et Santie regine filia…" subscribed the charter dated 14 Mar 1099 under which Alfonso VI King of Castile donated the monastery of Santa María de Algadefe to the monastery of Eslonza[441]. "Geloira Fredenandi principis", on her deathbed, confirmed her donation of the monastery of Piloño to Santiago de Compostela by charter dated 13 Nov 1100, subscribed by "Urraca soror eius"[442]. The Anales Toledanos record the death in 1099 of “la Ifant Geloira”[443]. 5. ALFONSO de Castilla y León (Compostela [1038/40]-Toledo 1 Jul 1109, bur Sahagún, León, San Mancio chapel in the royal monastery of Santos Facundo y Primitivo). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names (in order) "Urraca, Sancho, Alfonso, García and Elvira" and the children of King Fernando and Queen Sancha[444]. His parentage is confirmed by "Adefonsus rex Leonum" naming "Fridenandi patris mei Regis [et] Sanctie matris mee regine" in a charter dated 10 Jul 1077[445]. Under the partition of lands in his father’s will, he received León and the parias from the Taifa state of Toledo, succeeding in 1065 as ALFONSO VI King of León. He succeeded after the death of his brother in 1072 as ALFONSO VI King of Castile. - see below. 6. GARCÍA de Castilla y León ([1042]-castle of Luna 22 Mar 1090, bur León[446]). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names (in order) "Urraca, Sancho, Alfonso, García and Elvira" and the children of King Fernando and Queen Sancha[447]. Ferdinand I King of Castile confirmed the union of the monastery of San Martín del Río with San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 31 Aug 1050, subscribed by "Sanctius prolis regis, Adefonsus filius regis, Garsea filio regis, Urraca filia regis, Tegridia filia regis…"[448]. "Fredernandus…Legionensis rex…cum coniuge mea regina dna Sancia et filiis meis" confirmed the privileges of Santiago de Compostela by charter dated 10 Mar 1065, subscribed by "Sancius filius regis, Adefonsus filius regis, Garsea filius regis, Urraca filia regis, Geloira filia regis…"[449]. Under the partition of lands in his father’s will, he received Galicia and the parias from the Taifa states of Seville and Badajoz, succeeding 1065 as GARCIA King of Galicia. He consolidated his power in Portugal by forcibly requiring García Múñoz, a powerful Portuguese noble, to donate his territories in 1066[450] but by 1069 King García was having difficulty maintaining his authority in Galicia. He defeated and killed conde Muño Menéndez at Pedrosa Fen in 1071, but by Jun 1071 he had been captured by his brothers who divided his territories between them. He was exiled to the taifa of Seville. He returned after the murder of his brother Sancho. His brother King Alfonso VI invited him to meet 13 Feb 1073, but took him prisoner. He remained in prison for life in the castle of Luna in northern León[451]. The Chronicon Regum Legionensium records that King Alfonso captured "his brother García…by a cunning trick" and kept him in chains "twenty years and more", and that García bled himself to death and was buried in León[452]. The Annales Compostellani record the death “XI Kal Apr” in 1090 of “Garsias Rex”[453]. The Chronicon Compostellani records the death “XI Kal Apr” in 1090 of “Garsea” after being held in prison since 1073[454]. The Annales Complutense record the death in 1082 of “Garsia Rex”[455], although many of the dates in this source are inaccurate. [Mistress:---. The name of García's possible mistress is not known. One possible illegitimate child:] a) [FERNANDO García. Reilly[456] suggests that Fernando García [de Castro], Señor de Hita y Uceda may have been the illegitimate son of García King of Galicia, son of Fernando I King of Castile and León, born during his father's period of imprisonment, therefore after 1073. The chronology of this suggestion would be in doubt if Fernando's son, Gutierre, was a young adult in 1105 but, as explained in the document ASTURIAS, GALICIA, LEON NOBILITY, this is difficult to sustain. No confirmation has yet been found in contemporary documentation that King García had an illegitimate child, so this theory must remain an interesting speculation.]
ALFONSO de Castilla y León, son of FERNANDO I "el Magno" King of Castile and León & his wife Sancha de León (Compostela [1038/40]-Toledo 30 Jun 1109, bur Sahagún, León, San Mancio chapel in the royal monastery of Santos Facundo y Primitivo). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names (in order) "Urraca, Sancho, Alfonso, García and Elvira" and the children of King Fernando and Queen Sancha[457]. According to the Chronicle of Sahagún, Alfonso was 72 years old when he died[458], but this must be overstated if he was his parents' fourth child as stated in Historia Silense[459]. It is more likely that he was born in [1038/40]. Ferdinand I King of Castile confirmed the union of the monastery of San Martín del Río with San Pedro de Cardeñas by charter dated 31 Aug 1050, subscribed by "Sanctius prolis regis, Adefonsus filius regis, Garsea filio regis, Urraca filia regis, Tegridia filia regis…"[460]. "Fredernandus…Legionensis rex…cum coniuge mea regina dna Sancia et filiis meis" confirmed the privileges of Santiago de Compostela by charter dated 10 Mar 1065, subscribed by "Sancius filius regis, Adefonsus filius regis, Garsea filius regis, Urraca filia regis, Geloira filia regis…"[461]. Under the partition of lands in his father’s will, he received León and the parias from the Taifa state of Toledo, succeeding in 1065 as ALFONSO VI King of León. Relations between Alfonso and his two brothers were tense. Although Alfonso and Sancho cooperated to deprive their brother García of Galicia, Sancho turned against Alfonso soon afterwards and defeated him at Golpejera Jan 1072. He was exiled to Toledo, seeking refuge with the Dhul-Nunid King[462]. He returned to León after the murder of his brother, arriving [10] Nov 1072, and was accepted before 8 Dec 1072 as ALFONSO VI King of Castile. Pursuing his father's close connections with the monastery of Cluny, he granted the order its first monastic house in Castile at San Isidro de Dueñas 29 May 1073, as well as doubling the annual census payment to Cluny in 1077[463]. The Roman liturgy was adopted in Castile and León in 1076. After the death in Jun 1076 of Sancho IV “él de Peñalén” King of Navarre, King Alfonso succeeded as King of Navarre: a charter dated 1076 records that Alfonso VI King of Castile ("Adefonsus filius Fredinandi regis") succeeded to the kingdom after "impiisima fraude interfecto rege Sancio, Garsie...regis filius"[464]. Pope Gregory VII asserted papal suzerainty over Spain 28 Jun 1077, although King Alfonso's response appears to have been to declare himself "imperator totius hispaniae", the first known use of this title being 17 Oct 1077[465]. King Alfonso VI took advantage of the assassination of Sancho IV King of Navarre in 1076 to invade Navarre, annexing La Rioja, Álava, Vizcaya and Guipúzcoa to Castile. Turning his attention to the reconquest of Moorish territories, Alfonso recaptured Toledo 25 May 1085, besieged Zaragoza in 1086, and also imposed his Government on the kingdom of Valencia, where he installed as ruler the deposed al-Qadir ex-taifa King of Toledo. His ambitions were, however, thwarted by al-Mu'tamid King of Seville who, with the help of Yusuf bin Tashfin Emir of the Almoravids, defeated King Alfonso at Sagrajas near Badajoz 23 Oct 1086. The Almoravids rapidly consolidated their position, absorbing the taifa kingdoms of Granada and Seville and subduing Jaén, Almería, Denia and Murcia. Undeterred, Alfonso recaptured Córdoba in 1091, and persuade Al-Mutawakkil of Badajoz to cede him Lisbon, Santarem and Sintra between 30 Apr and 8 May 1093, although Badajoz itself was captured by the Almoravids in early 1094. Meanwhile Rodrigo Díaz "el Cid" recaptured Valencia, establishing himself there as an autonomous prince. Previously his bitter enemy, Alfonso eventually united with him to fight the Moors. He also spread the call overseas, especially in France, for a general crusade to fight 'the infidel'. "Adefonsus rex Legionis et totius Hispanie imperator atque Fredenandi filius regis" granted privileges to Santiago de Compostela, with the advice of "generis mei comitis domini Raimundi", by charter dated 28 Jan 1090[466]. The end of his reign was marred by a crushing defeat at Uclés 29 May 1108, where his son was killed. The Chronicon Regum Legionensium records that King Alfonso lived for 79 years and reigned for 43 years and six months, died in Toledo 1 Jul "in the era 1147 (1109)" and was buried "in the church of saints Facundus and Primitivus"[467]. The Chronicon Lusitanum records the death “III Kal Jul” in 1147 (1109) of “Rex D. Alfonsus Regis D. Fernandi filius”[468]. Betrothed (by proxy Caen, Abbey of Holy Trinity before [1069]) to AGATHE de Normandie, daughter of WILLIAM I King of England Duc de Normandie & his wife Mathilde de Flandres ([1064]-before 1074, bur Bayeux Cathedral). According to William of Malmesbury, an unnamed daughter of King William was "affianced by messengers" to King Alfonso[469]. Orderic Vitalis names her Agatha, identifying her as the daughter who had been betrothed to Harold Godwinson (see above), and says that she was betrothed to "Amfursio regi Galliciæ"[470]. Matthew of Paris places her as the fifth daughter (unnamed) betrothed to "Aldefonso Galiciæ regi" but different from the daughter betrothed to Harold[471]. Orderic says that she died en route to Spain, her body being brought back to Bayeux for burial[472]. The betrothal to Alfonso must have been a short-lived arrangement as he married his first wife in 1069[473]. m firstly (betrothed 1069, [late 1073/early 1074], repudiated after 22 May 1077) [as her first husband,] AGNES d’Aquitaine, daughter of GUILLAUME VIII Duke of Aquitaine [GUILLAUME VI Comte de Poitou] & his second wife Mathilde --- ([1059]-[6 Jun 1078 or after 1099], bur [Sahagún, León, royal monastery of Santos Facundo y Primitivo]). The Chronicle of Saint-Maxence records that the only daughter of "Goffredus" and his second wife was the wife of "Hildefonsi regis, filii Freelandi et nepotis Garsii", in a later passage recording their marriage in 1069[474]. She was known as INÉS in Castile. The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Ines" ("Agnetam") as the first of the "five legitimate wives" of King Alfonso[475]. The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes names "Agnes" as first wife of "rex Aldefonsus"[476]. "Agnes regina" confirmed the donation to Cluny by "Adefonsus…princeps" dated 22 May 1077[477]. No later reference has been found in charters to Queen Inés. Reports of her subsequent history are mutually contradictory. Orderic Vitalis refers to the second marriage of "Agnetem filiam Guillelmi Pictavorum ducis relictam Hildefonsi senioris Galiciae regis" with Hélie Comte du Maine[478]. However, Sandoval records that "la Reyna Doña Ines" died 6 Jun 1078 according to "las memorias del tumbo negro de Santiago"[479]. The accuracy of this statement is uncertain as, in the same passage, Sandoval states that the same source records the death in the same year "II Kal Jun" of "Sancius Rex filius Alfonsi Regis". This latter entry presumably refers to the death of Sancho, son of King Alfonso VI, at the battle of Uclés in 1108, but it casts doubt on the accuracy of the year of the death of Queen Inés. Another date is introduced by the Annales Compostellani which record the death "VIII Id Jun" in 1098 of “Regina Agnes”[480]. This is the same day and month as stated in the tumbo negro, so it is possible that the year is wrongly given, although it is also possible that the Annales Compostelani are referring to the death of the wife of Pedro I King of Aragon (who must have died in 1097 or before). Reilly[481] says that Queen Constanza was buried next to Queen Inés, which implies that the latter predeceased her successor. The primary source on which this is based has not yet been identified, although if it is correct it does seem surprising that the repudiated queen remained in Castile until she died and that she was buried in the royal monastery. If Orderic Vitalis is correct, Queen Inés must have been repudiated by her husband and later returned to France where she married secondly (after 1099) as his second wife, Hélie Comte du Maine. Another possibility is that Orderic´s passage misstates the name "Agnetem" for "Beatricem", and that the second wife of Comte Hélie was King Alfonso VI´s widow Beatrix whose family origin is not otherwise recorded and who would therefore have been a younger daughter of Duke Guillaume VIII (see below). According to Kerrebrouck[482], Agnès d'Aquitaine never existed. He says that the first wife of King Alfonso VI was Inés de Guzmán, although he does not name her parents or precise origin. m secondly (Dec 1079) as her second husband, CONSTANCE de Bourgogne, widow of HUGUES [II] Comte de Chalon, daughter of ROBERT I Duke of Burgundy [Capet] & his first wife Hélie de Semur ([after 1045]-[25 Jul/25 Oct] 1093, bur Sahagún, León, royal monastery of Santos Facundo y Primitivo). The Chronicon Trenorciensi records that "Constantiæ…filia Roberti Ducis" married firstly "Hugonis Cabilonensis Comitis" and secondly "Hispaniæ Rex Adefonsus "[483]. Considering the estimated date of her first marriage, it is unlikely that Constance was born before [1045]. A charter dated 1087 of "Ducem Burgundiæ Oddonem" recalls a donation to Tournus abbey by "comitissa Cabillonensis filia Rotberti ducis", after the death of "mariti sui Hugonis comitis", adding that she subsequently became "Regina Galliciæ et Hispaniarum"[484]. "Infanta donna Urraka Regis domni Adefonsi filia" names her mother "Constantie regina" in her donation to Cluny dated 22 Feb 1117 "Spanish Era"[485], although the date was presumably AD as 1117 Spanish Era was equivalent to 1079 AD. An early 12th century document at Fleury records that "filiam Roberti ducis Bugundionem…Constantiam" married Alfonso VI King of Castile and was mother of a daughter who married "Raymundo comiti"[486]. The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Queen Constance" as the second of the "five legitimate wives" of King Alfonso[487]. Her second marriage date is estimated based on the likely estimated death date of her first husband in [Nov/early Dec] 1079 and her subscribing a document dated 25 Dec 1079 at Dueñas with her second husband[488]. Queen Constance was instrumental in having the Roman rite replace the Visigothic rite in the churches of Castile. "Adefonsus…Hispaniarum rex…cum coniuge mea Constantia regina" donated property to the monastery of San Salvador de Oña by charter dated 1 May 1092[489]. The date of her death is fixed by her last known mention in a charter dated 25 Jul 1093 and a donation by King Alfonso to the monastery of Sahagún dated 25 Oct 1093, which does not include Queen Constanza's name in the subscription list[490]. The 13th century history of Sahagún monastery records that "la Reyna Doña Constanza" was buried in the monastery[491]. Pérez´s history of Sahagún monastery, published in 1782, states that "Doña Berta…Reyna…está enterrada no lejos de Doña Constanza en la Capilla" of the monastery, but does not quote the inscription which confirms this statement[492]. m thirdly ([Dec] 1094) BERTA, daughter of --- (-early Jan 1100, bur Sahagún, León, royal monastery of Santos Facundo y Primitivo). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Berta, who was of Tuscan descent" as the third of the "five legitimate wives" of King Alfonso[493]. The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes names "Berta ex Tusca oriunda" as third wife of "rex Aldefonsus"[494]. Las crónicas anónimas de Sahagún refer to her as "otra mugger de la nacion de Lombardia llamada Berta". The precise origin of Berta is not known. According to Europäische Stammtafeln[495], she was Berta de Bourgogne [Comté], daughter of Guillaume I Comte Palatin de Bourgogne, Comte de Vienne et de Macon, which is inconsistent with the "Tuscan descent" reported in the Chronicon Regum Legionensium. Szabolcs de Vajay suggests that she was the daughter of Guillaume Comte de Bourgogne[496]. Reilly does not mention this possible Burgundian origin of Berthe, implying that the Castilian king chose his third wife from outside the Burgundian circle in order to diminish the influence of the Burgundians at court. As Berthe de Bourgogne would have been the sister of Raymond de Bourgogne who married Infanta Urraca, oldest legitimate daughter of King Alfonso, around the same time that King Alfonso married Queen Berta, it is surprising that the chronicles do not refer to this relationship if it is correct. The references to "Tuscia" and "Lombardia" in the chronicles could be consistent with the family of Bourgogne [Comté] having originated in northern Italy, their ancestors being Marchesi of Ivrea until 968, although this was nearly 130 years before the date of Queen Berta's marriage. Reilly dates this marriage to "during the Christmas season of 1094", but does not state his source[497]. In a later passage, Reilly states that the first reference to Berta as queen is dated 28 Apr 1095[498]. "Adefonsus…Ispanie imperator" permitted the abbey of Silos to establish outposts near the abbey, with the consent of "uxoris mee Berte regine", by charter dated 20 Jan [1096/98], confirmed by "Garcia Ordoniz et comes…Gomiz Gonçalviz armiger regis, Fernando Munoz maiordomus regis, Didago Albariz, Fernando Ansuriz, Gutier Munoz, Ruderico Gonçalviz, Monio Roderiquiz, Didago Bermudez, Petro Gonçalviz…"[499]. "Adefonsus…totius Hispanie imperator" granted rights to the abbey of Silos, with the consent of "uxoris mee Berte regine", by charter dated 19 May 1097[500]. "Adefonsus…tocius Ispanie imperator" donated property to the abbey of Silos, with the consent of "uxoris mee Berte regine", by charter dated 30 Sep 1098, confirmed by the same persons as in the earlier charter dated 20 Jan [1096/98][501]. "…Berta…regina…" subscribed the charter dated 14 Mar 1099 under which Alfonso VI King of Castile donated the monastery of Santa María de Algadefe to the monastery of Eslonza[502]. According to Reilly, Queen Berta died shortly after the new year 1100, probably before 16 Jan[503]. In another passage, he notes that the last notice of her is dated 17 Nov 1099[504]. She was dead in 25 Jan 1100, the date of the charter under which "Adefonsus…Toletani imperii rex" donated the churches of "Sancti Facundi et Sancti Primitivi…cum sua villa…Villaverde", ceded by "comitis Monini Fernandis…in vita sua dederam uxori mee Berte regine", to Cluny, confirmed by "Raimundus totius Gallecie comes et gener regis, Urraca soror regis, Urraca regis filia et Raimundi comitis uxor, Enricus Portugalensis comes, uxor ipsius Tarasia filia regis…"[505]. The 13th century history of Sahagún monastery records that "la Reyna Doña Berta" died "apenas cumplidos seis años en el matrimonio" and was buried in the monastery[506]. Pérez´s history of Sahagún monastery, published in 1782, states that "Doña Berta…Reyna…está enterrada no lejos de Doña Constanza en la Capilla" of the monastery, but does not quote the inscription which confirms this statement[507]. [m fourthly ([Burgos] 1100 before 14 May) ISABEL [Elisabeth], daughter of --- (-before Mar 1106, bur Royal Pantheon of San Isidor de León). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Elizabeth" as the fourth of the "five legitimate wives" of King Alfonso, stating that she was the mother of "Sancha the wife of count Rodrigo and Elvira who married Duke Roger of Sicily"[508]. According to Reilly, her first documentary mention is dated 14 May 1100, but he does not cite the reference[509]. "Adefonsus…totius Hispanie imperator" donated property to the monastery of San Salvador de Oña with the consent of "uxoris mee Helisabeth regine" by charter dated 12 Dec 1075[510], although this date is clearly incorrect. "Aldefonsus rex Yspaniarum…cum…coniuge mee Helisabeth regine" donated property to the monastery of San Salvador de Oña by charter dated 1086[511], also clearly misdated. "Adefonsus Rex Imperator Ispanie et Regina Elisabeth" protected the grazing rights of Valladolid Santa María by charter dated 1100[512]. "Adefonsus totius Ispanie imperator" donated property to the monastery of San Salvador de Oña with the consent of "uxoris mee Helisabet regine" by charter dated 23 Mar 1103[513]. Her origin is not known. Reilly assumes a French origin, speculating that she belonged to a younger branch of the house of Burgundy, but quotes no documentary evidence for this or any other French origin[514]. It used to be widely accepted that she was the daughter of Louis VI King of France, based on a funerary inscription, but this is chronologically impossible. Her existence is questionable and it is possible that she was in fact the same person as Isabel née Zaïda, shown below as King Alfonso's fifth wife. The question of the separate existence of King Alfonso VI's fourth wife would be resolved if we knew there had been two different memorials to "Queen Elisabeth" in the Royal Pantheon, but it appears that a record of these memorials no longer exists. According to Reilly, she is last named in a charter dated 14 May 1107[515], but it is more likely that this document refers to Queen Isabel/Elisabeth née Zaïda (see below).] m fifthly (Mar 1106) as her second husband, ZAÏDA, widow of ABU NASIR al Fatah al Ma'Mun Emir of Córdoba, daughter of --- (-13 Sep 1107, bur Royal Pantheon of San Isidor at León). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Zaida, the daughter of King Abenabeth of Seville, who was baptised…Elisabeth" as the second of two concubines of King Alfonso, and their son "Sancho who died at the battle of Ucles"[516]. The Chronicon de Cardeña records that King Alfonso married “Mora, que decien la Cayda, sobrina de Abenafanle” who was mother of his son Sancho[517]. Her first marriage is confirmed by the Bayan al Mugrib of Ibn Idari which names "le fils d´Alphonse, Sancho, qu´il avait eu de l´épouse d´Al Mamun ibn Abbad" when recording the battle of Uclés[518]. Salazar y Acha attempts to explain these three apparently contradictory sources by suggesting that Zaida could have been the daughter of "un hermano mayor…Ismail ibn Abbad" of Mohammed al-Mutamid, noting particularly the practice of endogamous marriages in the Muslim dynasties[519]. As noted above, Ismail is recorded as the brother of al-Mutatid and so would have been the paternal uncle of al-Mutamid. From a chronological point of view therefore Salazar y Acha´s suggestion appears untenible, although Zaida could have been another relative, maybe the daughter of an otherwise unrecorded brother of al-Mutamid. Alberto Montaner Frutos also discusses Zaïda, in particular relating to legends which have developed in connection with her history[520]. Reilly[521] dates the start of her relationship with King Alfonso to late 1091 or 1092, suggesting its diplomatic importance would have been greatest after the fall of Córdoba in Mar 1091 but before the fall of Badajoz in early 1094. This seems supported by the likelihood that their son Sancho was at least 15 years old when he was killed at the battle of Uclés in May 1108. Zaïda was christened ISABEL[522], date not known. Reilly cites a document of Galician origin dated 27 Mar 1106 which indicates that King Alfonso had married "Helisabet" shortly before[523]. Reilly[524] quotes a charter granted at Oviedo 19 Mar 1106 which lists members of the royal family, naming "Elisabeth" directly before "Sancho", which presumably refer to Zaïda and her son. "…Helisabet Regina, Reimundus comes, Urraca regis filia, Sancius filius regis…" subscribed the charter dated 14 May 1107 under which "Adefonsus…Toletani imperii rex…cum…uxore mea Helisabet regina" approved the mint of Santiago de Compostela[525]. Reilly assumes that the reference is to King Alfonso´s presumed fourth wife Isabel (Elizabeth)[526], but it appears more likely that the document refers to Zaïda. Reilly says that her sepulchral inscription (presumably now lost) reportedly stated that she had died in childbirth on 13 Sep, without giving the year, and in a later passage that the inscription stated that this was the "second ferial day", which he interprets as meaning a Monday or Thursday[527]. If the charters dated 1106 and 1107 correctly refer to Zaida, the year must have been 1107 assuming that King Alfonso married his sixth wife in 1108. Pérez´s history of Sahagún monastery, published in 1782, states that Queen Isabel was buried "en la Capilla mayor" of the monastery, but does not quote the inscription which confirms this statement[528]. m sixthly ([Apr] 1108) [as her first husband,] BEATRIX, daughter of --- (-after 1109). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Beatrice" as the fifth of the "five legitimate wives" of King Alfonso[529]. The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes names "Beatrix ex partibus Gallicanis" as fifth wife of "rex Aldefonsus"[530]. According to the Chronicon Regum Legionensium, she "returned to her own country" after the king died[531]. No primary source has been identified which indicates her family origin. Orderic Vitalis refers to the second marriage of "Agnetem filiam Guillelmi Pictavorum ducis relictam Hildefonsi senioris Galiciae regis" with Hélie Comte du Maine[532]. As noted above, it appears unlikely that this passage could refer to King Alfonso´s first wife named Agnes, whose death before the king´s second marriage is indicated (although not conclusively) by primary sources. It is therefore possible that the entry relates to the king´s sixth wife, the name "Agnetem" being an error for "Beatricem". If this was correct, she would have been Beatrix, daughter of Guillaume VIII Duke of Aquitaine [Guillaume VI Comte de Poitou] & his third wife Hildegarde de Bourgogne [Capet], this parentage being the most probable from a chronological point of view if she was the daughter of one of the dukes of Aquitaine. In this case, she would have married secondly (after Jun 1109) as his second wife, Hélie Comte du Maine. [533]Mistress (1): ([1080]) JIMENA Muñoz, daughter of [MUNIO Muñoz & his wife Velasquita ---] (-Espinareda del Bierzo 1128, after 25 May, maybe 23 Jul, bur San Andres de Espinareda). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Jimena Muñoz" as the first of two concubines of King Alfonso, and their daughters "Elvira the wife of count Raymond of Toulouse…and Teresa the wife of Count Henry"[534]. The Chronicon de Cardeña names “Ximena Nuñez” as mother of the king´s daughters “la Infant Doña Elvira è la Infant Doña Teresa”[535]. The precise parentage of Jimena Muñoz has been the subject of considerable debate over recent years. The common connection with Ulver, where she was recorded, appears conclusive in determining that she was closely related to Munio Muñoz who was also recorded in the same castle (see the document GALICIA NOBILITY). Her birth date, estimated from her having given birth to two children in the early 1080s, suggests that she was his daughter rather than his sister (assuming that Munio´s parents are correctly identified as Munio Rodríguez and Jimena Ordóñez). Kerrebrouck states that Jimena Múñoz was King Alfonso VI's second wife, married before the end of 1078 (marriage annulled), but this is chronologically difficult to maintain. King Alfonso's relationship with Jimena lasted long enough to produce two children. As noted above, the last documentary reference to Queen Inés was dated 22 May 1077 while King Alfonso's marriage to Queen Constance took place in late 1079. This leaves insufficient time for the king to have married and had two legitimate children by Jimena. The reference in Kerrebrouck to the annulment of King Alfonso's alleged marriage to Jimena is presumably based on Pope Gregory VII's letter of 27 Jun 1080 which, among other things, objected to King Alfonso's "marriage" on the grounds of consanguinity. The letter does not name the wife whose marriage was objected to, but Reilly appears correct in concluding that "it can be no other than Queen Constance herself", given the likely date of her marriage and the likely date of birth of her daughter Urraca[536]. Reilly suggests that King Alfonso VI's relationship with Jimena started in [1081/82][537]. "Monnio Moniz, uxor sua Velasquita, Xemena Moniz, Petro Velaz, Sol Sancxiz…" subscribed the charter dated 1 Oct 1085 under which "Gelvira Petriz…cum viro meo…Godino Citiz" donated property in Priaranza to the monastery of San Pedro de Montes[538]. The dating clause of a charter dated 7 Feb 1093, under which "Petro Quizaz" sold property in Salas de los Barrios to the monastery of San Pedro de Montes, names "Scemena Monniz in Ulver"[539]. ["Garcia Monnuiz…cum uxor mea Fronille Annalaz cognomento Sol et Pelayo Monniuz et Auro Villito et Monniuz" donated property in Jagoaza to the monastery of San Pedro de Montes, and "Xemeno Monniuz" sold "mea porcione quam habui inter fratres meos" of the same property, by charter dated 26 Sep [1095][540]. It is possible that "Xemeno Monniuz" in this document is an error for "Xemena Monniuz". However, the dating clause which names "Comes Froyla Didaz imperante in ipsa terra de Iorres" suggests that the property was in a different area from "Ulver" and therefore that the two families were unrelated.] The dating clause of a charter dated 17 Dec 1096, under which "Vellite Ferrudiz et uxor mea Falella" sold property in Salas de los Barrios to the monastery of San Pedro de Montes, names "…Xemena Munniz in Ulver"[541]. The dating clause of a charter dated 21 Mar 1097, under which "Maria" donated property in Rimor to the monastery of San Pedro de Montes, names "Donna Xemena Monniz imperante ipsa terra de Ulver"[542]. "Xemena Munniz" donated property in Salas de los Barrios to the monastery of San Pedro de Montes by charter dated 26 Apr 1101[543]. "Potestas in illa terra donna Xemena" and "Xemena Monnuz imperante terra de Ulver" is named in dating clauses of other charters which record donations to San Pedro de Montes, dated 1099, 29 Jun 1100, 26 Aug [1103], 19 Apr [1104], 19 Jan [1107][544]. The dating clause of charters dated between [1115] and 15 May 1118 name "Johanne Petriz potestate in Ulver", and from 6 Mar 1126 "Ramiro Froilaz"[545], suggesting that the Muñoz family moved from the castle in [1107/15]. "Ximena Munniz" donated property in "Trebalio et Turres" to "nepotis mei…Garcie Fernandiz" by charter dated 18 Apr 1127[546]. Jimena Muñoz donated property in "la villa de Torres, discurrente rivulo Orbico, territorio Astoricensis" to the Order of St John by charter dated 18 Sep 1127[547]. "Jimena Muñiz" donated property "en Villar de Salas en el Bierzo" to Astorga Cathedral by charter dated 25 May 1128[548]. Doña Jimena retired to the Benedictine convent of Esinareda del Bierzo. The necrology of León Cathedral records the death “X Kal Aug” of “Xemena Moniz”[549]. Sandoval records that "Ximena Nuñez" was buried in "San Andres de Espinareda"[550]. An inscription in the monastery of Espinareda records the death in 1128 of "Semena Alphonsi vidui regis amica", although Rodríguez González highlights the opinion that the monument is a later forgery[551]. Sandoval records that "Ximena Nuñez" was buried in "San Andres de Espinareda"[552]. King Alfonso VI & his second wife had one child: 1. Infanta[553] doña URRACA de Castilla y León (late 1080[554]-Saldaña 8 Mar 1126, bur León, Monastery of San Isidro). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Waracta filia imperatoris Fernandi"[555]. She succeeded her father in 1109 as URRACA I Queen of Castile and León. - see below. King Alfonso VI & his fifth wife had three children (born before the marriage of their parents): 2. Infante don SANCHO de Castilla y León (Sep 1093[556]-killed in battle Uclés 29 May 1108). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Zaida, the daughter of King Abenabeth of Seville, who was baptised…Elisabeth" as the second of two concubines of King Alfonso, and their son "Sancho who died at the battle of Ucles"[557]. Legitimated by the subsequent marriage of his parents. Ruling in Medinaceli 1107[558]. "…Sancius infans Toletani imperatoris filius" subscribed the charter dated 23 Mar 1103 under which "Adefonsus totius Ispanie imperator" donated property to the monastery of San Salvador de Oña with the consent of "uxoris mee Helisabet regine"[559]. "…Helisabet Regina, Reimundus comes, Urraca regis filia, Sancius filius regis…" subscribed the charter dated 14 May 1107 under which "Adefonsus…Toletani imperii rex…cum…uxore mea Helisabet regina" approved the mint of Santiago de Compostela[560]. He was formally recognised as heir to the throne at the council of León [May] 1107[561]. The Anales Toledanos record that “Infant D. Sancho è al Conde D. Garcia” were killed “cerca de Uclés III Kal Jun” in 1108[562]. 3. Infanta doña SANCHA de Castilla y León ([1100/16 Mar 1104]-after 10 May 1125). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Sancha the wife of count Rodrigo and Elvira who married Duke Roger of Sicily" as the daughters of King Alfonso and his fourth "legitimate wife…Elisabeth"[563]. Both daughters are named in a charter dated 16 Mar 1104[564]. In view of the dates of their marriages, it is unlikely that they were born much before this date. This suggests that their mother may have been King Alfonso's fifth wife, formerly known by her Muslim name Zaïda, although if their estimated birth dates are correct there would have been an interval of several years between their births and the birth of their older brother Sancho, which seems surprising. "Comite domno Roderico Gonzalvus cum uxore mea Sandecia prolis filia regis Adephonsus" donated the monastery of San Mames to Santa María de Piasca by charter dated "mense Iulii, Era 1100" (misdated)[565]. m (1120 or 1122) as his first wife, RODRIGO González de Lara Señor de Lara y Liébana, son of GONZALO Núñez & his wife Goto --- (-after 1143). 4. Infanta doña ELVIRA de Castilla y León ([1100/16 Mar 1104]-8 Feb 1135). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Sancha the wife of count Rodrigo and Elvira who married Duke Roger of Sicily" as the daughters of King Alfonso and his fourth "legitimate wife…Elisabeth"[566]. Both daughters are named in a charter dated 16 Mar 1104[567]. In view of the dates of their marriages, it is unlikely that they were born much before this date. This suggests that their mother may have been King Alfonso's fifth wife, formerly known by her Muslim name Zaïda, although if their estimated birth dates are correct there would have been an interval of several years between their births and the birth of their older brother Sancho, which seems surprising. In the case of Elvira, there is another factor which suggests that Zaïda may have been her mother, which is discussed below. The Annals of Romoald name "Albiriam filiam regis Yspanie" as wife of "rex Rogerius…cum esset comes et iuvenis"[568]. According to Reilly, Elvira daughter of King Alfonso by "Elisabeth" married Fernando Fernández[569]. If this was correct, it would mean that King Roger's wife was King Alfonso's daughter by Jimena Muñoz (see below), which seems unlikely given the estimated birth date of the older Elvira. It would also mean that King Roger's wife was the widow of Raymond de Saint-Gilles Comte de Toulouse. However, if that was the case, it would be surprising that the fact was not mentioned in contemporary chronicles, considering how widely Raymond's crusading exploits were recorded. Assuming that Zaïda was the mother of King Roger's wife, her half-Muslim extraction may have been a factor which favoured the marriage, as King Roger's good relations with the largely Muslim population of Sicily was fundamental to the success of his dynasty in the island. The De Rebus Gestis Rogerii Siciliæ Regis of Alessandro Abbot of Telese records the death of "Alberia regina", dated to [1134/35] from the context[570]. The Chronicle of Romualdo Guarna records the deaths of "Albyria…regina…et filia eius…Tarentinus princeps et Anfusus Capuanorum princeps et Henricus", recorded in a section dealing with 1145 although the text appears to be recapitalitive of earlier events[571]. m ([1117]) as his first wife, ROGER II Count of Sicily, son of ROGER I Count of Sicily & his third wife Adelaida di Savona [Monferrato] (22 Dec 1095-Palermo 26 Feb 1154, bur Palermo Cathedral). He was crowned in 1130 as ROGER II King of Sicily. King Alfonso VI had two illegitimate children by Mistress (1): 5. [Infanta doña] ELVIRA Alfonso ([1080/81]-15 Nov [1156]). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Jimena Muñoz" as the first of two concubines of King Alfonso, and their daughters "Elvira the wife of count Raymond of Toulouse…and Teresa the wife of Count Henry"[572]. Her birth date is estimated from the birth of her first child "before 1097". "Raimundus…comes et Provincie marchio" donated property to Saint-Victor, Marseille by charter dated 28 Jul 1094, also confirming donations by "Dulcis comitissa", signed by "Alvira comitissa"[573]. The bull of Pope Urban II dated 18 Feb 1095 announces that "Raimundus Tolosanus comes…cum uxore sua Hervira et filio Bertranno" abandoned his rights to altar offerings at the monastery of Saint-Gilles[574]. According to Guibert, Comte Raymond left on the First Crusade with his wife and son (both unnamed) "Qui quidem, naturali cuidam filio suo comitatu quem regebat relicto, propriam conjugem cum filio, quem ab ea exegerat, unico secum duxit"[575]. She left Palestine after her husband's death, arriving back in Toulouse with her infant son in 1108[576]. Her second marriage is confirmed by the charter dated 30 Jun 1117 under which "Enxemenia Gonçalvez" sold property granted "ad me et ad filio meo Monio Petriz…in territorio Lampreana villa…Villa Rein" by Queen Urraca to "Fernando Fernandiz…cum socia mea infans domna Elvira"[577], and by the charter dated 8 Jul 1117 under which "Fernanz Fernanniz…et uxor mea infanta donna Gelvira filia regis Alfonsi" donated "quartem partem de monasterio de Ferreries…in Gallicia in terra de Lemes juxta Pantonem" to Cluny[578]. Elvira´s second marriage is also indicated by the charter dated 18 Apr 1127 under which her mother "Ximena Munniz" donated property in "Trebalio et Turres" to "nepotis mei…Garcie Fernandiz"[579], and by the charter dated 1201 under which her great grand-daughter "Domna Xemena Osoriz" donated her property in Valdejunco, Valdunquillo, Villa Velasco, Fontamian, Villa Sanz, Carvajal, Villela, Otero, Mozos, Valdescapa, Barriales, Valle Vaniego, Ranero and in tierra de Cea to Sahagún monastery, naming "aviam tuam Infantem Gelviram"[580], although the document does not clarify which of the two "Infantas Elvira" is referred to. On the other hand, Reilly[581] says that Elvira, wife of Raymond IV Comte de Toulouse, did not return to Castile until after the death of Queen Urraca. As mentioned above, he maintains that the wife of Fernando Fernández was Elvira who was the daughter of King Alfonso VI by "Elisabeth". As discussed above, it is more likely that the younger Elvira was the wife of Roger King of Sicily. Canal Sánchez-Pangín concludes that the wife of Fernando Fernández was indeed the widow of Raymond IV Comte de Toulouse[582]. One difficulty is that Alphonse I Comte de Toulouse, son of Comte Raymond IV and Elvira, was declared of age only in 1121, although it is not known whether his mother acted as regent in Toulouse throughout his minority. "Alvira Adefonso cum filiis meis" donated "civitate Cantavria…Sancti Vicencii de Lomba" to the knights of St John of Jerusalem by charter dated 26 Jun 1125, the dating clause of which records "…comite Fernando Fernandus adiutor et defensor"[583]. "Infans Geloira...imperatoris Hispanie Adefonsi filia...cum filiis meis Garsia, Didaco et Tarasia" donated property "in Uilla Frontin" to León Santa María by charter dated 8 Sep 1133[584]. “Infans Geloira...imperatoris Hyspanie Adefonsi filia...cum filiis meis Didaco Fernandi et Tarasia” donated "in Villa Frontin" to León Cathedral, for the soul of “filii mei Garsia Fernandi”, by charter dated 18 Aug 1136[585].

"Infans Geluira magni regis Adefonsi filia…cum filiis meis Didaco Fernandi et Taresia Fernandi" confirmed the rights of Astorga Cathedral over "monasterium…Sanctum Petrum de Forcellas" by charter dated 19 Jun 1142, confirmed by "comes domnus Ramirus, comes domnus Osorius, Didacus Munioz, comes domnus Fernandus"[587].

The necrology of León Cathedral records the death “XVII Kal Dec” of “infans domna Geloira”[590]. m firstly (1094) as his third wife, RAYMOND IV Comte de Toulouse, son of PONS Comte de Toulouse & his second wife Almodis de la Marche (-Mount Pèlerin near Tripoli, Palestine 28 Feb 1105). m secondly (before 30 Jun 1117, [separated before 1121[) [as his first wife,] FERNANDO Fernández, son of conde FERNANDO [Fernández] & his wife --- (-16 Jan 1126). 6. [Infanta doña] TERESA Alfonso ([1081/82]-1 Nov 1130). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names "Jimena Muñoz" as the first of two concubines of King Alfonso, and their daughters "Elvira the wife of count Raymond of Toulouse…and Teresa the wife of Count Henry"[591]. Her birth date is estimated based on her having given birth to a child by her relationship with Fernando Pérez de Traba which started in 1124. Her parentage is confirmed by the charter dated 23 Mar 1143 under which her daughter Sancha Enríquez property in Trobajo del Cerecedo, which she inherited from "avia mea dompna Hensemena Muñiz…et de mater mea eius filia regina dompna Teresa", to the parents of Juan Albertino Bishop of León[592]. The 13th century history of Sahagún monastery records that "el Rey D. Alonso…una hija…Teresa" married "un Conde…Enrique que venia de sangre Real de Francia"[593]. An early 12th century document at Fleury records that "Ainrico uni filiorum, filio…ducis Roberti" married "alteram filiam…non ex coniugali" of Alfonso VI King of Castile[594]. “Comite Dono Henrico...cum uxore mea Infante Dona Taraxea” granted privileges to “Villa Constantin de Panonias”, confirmed by “Infans Dono Alfoso filius Henrici comiti et uxor mea Infante Dona Taraxia”, by charter dated 1096[595]. "…Taraxia Adefonsi regis filia…Henrik comes…" subscribed the charter dated 14 Mar 1099 under which Alfonso VI King of Castile donated the monastery of Santa María de Algadefe to the monastery of Eslonza[596]. Regent of Portugal 1112-1123. Queen of Portugal 1113. The Historia Compostelana records that “Fernando Perride, Petris Comitis filio” left his lawful wife and lived in adultery with “Regina Tarasia”[597]. The Chronica Adefonsi Imperatoris records that Alfonso VII King of Castile met "Teresa queen of the Portuguese and with Count Fernando" at Ricobayo and made peace with them after his accession in 1126[598]. The Chronicon Lusitanum records the death “Kal Nov” in 1168 (1130) of “Regina Donna Tarasia mater Donni Alfonsi…anno secundo regni”[599]. m (before 24 Aug 1092[600]) HENRI de Bourgogne, son of HENRI “le damoiseau” de Bourgogne [Capet] & his wife [Sibylla] [de Barcelona] ([1069/72]-killed in battle Astorga, León 22 May 1112, bur Braga Cathedral). He may have arrived in Spain with the expedition of the Eudes I Duke of Burgundy in 1086/87, following a call from the abbey of Cluny to fight "the infidel"[601]. Señor de Braga [1093], count in Tordesillas 1096/97. The dating clause of a charter dated 9 Oct 1096, under which "Pelayo Xemeniz" donated land “en Ville Ceide...” to the monastery of San Salvador, records “Sanxus comes in Toro et alius comes domino Ancricco in Auctario de Selles, comes Remundus tenente in Coria et in Zamora”[602]. The dating clause of a charter dated 19 Jan 1097, under which "Brabolio Gutierrez" sold land “en territorio de León las villas Cubillas” to “Ordoño Sarraciniz y a su mujer Fronilde Ovéquiz”, records “comes Raimundus in Galicia et in Zamora, comes domno Enrriz in Otero de Sellas, comite Petro Ansurez in Saldania”[603]. He made a mutual pact in [Dec 1094/Jul 1095] with Raymond de Bourgogne, husband of Infanta Urraca de Castilla, under which he promised support in securing Castile and León for Raymond in return for a pledge to grant him Toledo (or in default, Galicia)[604]. Alfonso VI King of Castile made him a large grant of land, from the Río Miño in the north to Santarem in the south, in [1095/96], which in effect resulted in his installation as HENRIQUE Conde de Portugal. This grant may have been motivated as much by a desire to offset the growing power of his son-in-law, Raymond de Bourgogne, as to increase the power base of Henri de Bourgogne. Mistress: (1124) of FERNANDO Pérez de Traba Conde de Trastámara, son of PEDRO Froilaz de Traba & his first wife Urraca Froilaz.
Infanta doña URRACA de Castilla y León, daughter of ALFONSO VI King of Castile and León & his second wife Constance de Bourgogne [Capet] (late 1080[605]-Saldaña 8 Mar 1126, bur León, Monastery of San Isidro). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Waracta filia imperatoris Fernandi"[606]. "…Urraca regis filia et Reimundi comiti uxor…" subscribed the charter dated 23 Mar 1103 under which "Adefonsus totius Ispanie imperator" donated property to the monastery of San Salvador de Oña with the consent of "uxoris mee Helisabet regine"[607]. "Infanta dna Urraca Adefonsi imperatoris filia et totius Gallecie domina" the monastery of San Andrés de Trobo to Santiago de Compostela by charter dated 18 Dec 1107[608]. Her father declared her heiress to Castile in 1108 after the death of her half-brother Infante don Sancho. She succeeded her father in 1109 as URRACA I Queen of Castile and León. The Almoravides captured Toledo Aug 1109. The country experienced a period of anarchy during her reign due to her constant disputes with her second husband. She was also faced with the attacks by her half-sister Teresa of Portugal, ambitious to replace her as Queen of Castile. "Urraca totius Yspanie regina" confirmed the donation of the monastery of San Andrés de Trobo to Santiago de Compostela by charter dated 14 May 1112[609]. By 1116, Queen Urraca had succeeded in re-establishing control over most of Castile. "Urracha…Ispanie regina, regis Aldefonsi regineque Constantie filia" donated property to the abbey of Silos by charter dated 26 Mar 1119, confirmed by "Adefonsus rex, filius…regine, Infantissa domna Sancia, regine germana, Infantissa domna Sancia regine filia, Xemeno Lopez dapifer regine, Garsia Inniguez, Xemeno Inniguez, Petrus Gonsalvi comes, Rodericus Gonsalvi, Fernandus Garsie maior, Fernandus Garsie minor…"[610]. "Urraka…Ispanie regina, regis Adefonis regineque Constancie filia" donated "ecclesiam Sancti Nicholai…in Villa Franca" to Cluny by charter dated 21 Aug 1120[611]. "Urraca totius Ispanie regina et Aldefonsi imperatoris filia" donated property to the abbey of Silos by charter dated 13 Apr 1121, confirmed by "Gomez Castelanus comes, Rodericus Asturianus comes, Fernandus Garcies, Petrus Alvares…"[612]. The Chronica Adefonsi Imperatoris records the death of Queen Urraca in 1126 after reigning for sixteen years, eight months and seven days, and her burial in León in the royal pantheon[613]. The Chronicon Burgense records the death in 1126 of “Urraca Regina”[614]. The Chronicon Compostellani records the death “apud Saldaña VI Id Mar” in 1126 of “Urraca…in partu adulterini filii”[615]. Orderic Vitalis also reports that Urraca died "in a difficult childbirth"[616], although this seems unlikely considering her age. m firstly (betrothed [Summer 1087], Toledo [1 May 1092/Jan 1093]) RAIMOND de Bourgogne Comte d’Amous, son of GUILLAUME I Comte de Bourgogne & his wife Etiennette --- ([1070]-Grajal [13/20] Sep 1107, bur Santiago de Compostela, Cathedral Santiago el Mayor). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Raymundem in Hispania comitem" as brother of "Hugo…Bisuntinensis archiepiscopus", when recording the latter's appointment as archbishop[617], although in a later passage the same source records "comitis Raymundi" as "fratris comitis Pontii de Tolosa"[618] which is inconsistent with other sources. "Wilelmus comes Burgundie" names "Rainaldi et Raimundi filiorum meorum" in his donation to Cluny dated [1086][619]. "Raymundus…Burgundie comes filius Willermi…comitis" donated property to Saint-Bénigne de Dijon by charter dated to [1087/92] subscribed by "Hugonis archiepiscopi Bisuntini fratris mei, Stephani comitis fratris mei"[620]. Comte d'Amous. He joined the expedition of the Eudes I Duke of Burgundy to Spain in 1086/87, following a call from the abbey of Cluny to fight "the infidel"[621]. Reilly suggests that he was betrothed after the failure to capture Tudela in Summer 1087, when he speculates that the Burgundians would have visited the court of Castile[622]. Raymond remained in Castile following his betrothal to Infanta Urraca. "Adefonsus rex Legionis et totius Hispanie imperator atque Fredenandi filius regis" granted privileges to Santiago de Compostela, with the advice of "generis mei comitis domini Raimundi", by charter dated 28 Jan 1090[623].

Conde in Coria and Zamora: the dating clause of a charter dated 9 Oct 1096, under which "Pelayo Xemeniz" donated land “en Ville Ceide...” to the monastery of San Salvador, records “Sanxus comes in Toro et alius comes domino Ancricco in Auctario de Selles, comes Remundus tenente in Coria et in Zamora”[626]. Conde in Galicia and Zamora: the dating clause of a charter dated 19 Jan 1097, under which "Brabolio Gutierrez" sold land “en territorio de León las villas Cubillas” to “Ordoño Sarraciniz y a su mujer Fronilde Ovéquiz”, records “comes Raimundus in Galicia et in Zamora, comes domno Enrriz in Otero de Sellas, comite Petro Ansurez in Saldania”[627].

He established his principal stronghold in the castle of Grajal in 1102[630]. By this time, Raymond had acquired a commanding position in Castile as husband of the heir presumptive to the throne. A funeral elegy of "domnus Raymundus comes Hispanie qui de stirpe comitum Burgundie ortus" is recorded in the cartulary of Saint-Bénigne-de-Dijon in a charter dated 20 Sep 1107 which names "Hugo frater suus Bisuntinus archiepiscopus"[631]. Mistress of (1): conde GÓMEZ González, son of GONZALO Salvadórez & his wife Sancha Gómez (-killed in battle Candespina, near Sepúlveda 26 Oct 1110 or 1111). The Crónica Latina records that “el conde Gómez, llamado de Candespina” was “excesivamente y más de lo que convenía familiar a la reina” and was killed in battle against Alfonso I King of Aragon at Sepúlveda[632]. m secondly (Monzón Castle early Oct 1109, separated 1114, annulled for consanguinity 1115) ALFONSO I King of Aragon and Navarre, “el Batallador” son of SANCHO I Ramírez King of Aragon & his second wife Félicie de Roucy (Jaca 1083-Almuniente 7 Sep 1134, bur Montearagón, Monastery of Jesus de Nazareth, transferred 1845 to San Pedro el Viejo, Huesca).

The Crónica Latina records that the queen accepted “la excesiva familiaridad del conde Pedro de Lara, padre del conde Malrico, del conde Nuño y del conde Álvaro” and that it was said that they had “un hijo llamado Fernando Hurtado”[634]. His relationship with Queen Urraca probably started in [1112/14]. Szabolcs de Vajay states that there is no evidence for a secret marriage between Queen Urraca and Pedro González de Lara[635]. Queen Urraca & her first husband had two children: 1. Infanta doña SANCHA de Castilla y León (before 11 Nov 1095 or after 1102-León 28 Feb 1159, bur León, Monastery of San Isidro). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Sanctiam..ad quam extat una beati Bernardi epistola" as sister of "rex Aldefonsus Hispanie imperator"[636]. Reilly cites a charter of Infanta Elvira dated 11 Nov 1095 in which Sancha is named[637]. It is possible that the dating of this document is suspect as an interval of more than ten years before the birth of her younger brother would be surprising. According to Europäische Stammtafeln[638], she was born "after 1102". "Infan dona Sansia filia comite Reimondus et regina dona Urraka et…Gonzaluo Aluarici et uxor tua Maria Pelaici" donated the town of Vilela to the monastery of Eslonza by charter dated 27 Sep 1120[639].

Szabolcs de Vajay says “bearing the name of his paternal grandfather, he is presumed to have been the second-born son of the royal couple”[681]. Barton & Fletcher says that the birth of Infante Ramón may have prompted the rebellion of conde Pedro González de Lara, stating that he was the first son and implying that he was born before Jan 1130[682]. No supporting source is quoted. However, such an early date for his birth would be surprising considering the probable birth date of his mother Berenguela. 3.

The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes names "Sancium et Fernandum, Elisabeth et Beatiam" as the children of "Aldefonsi Hispaniarum Regis" and his wife "Berengariam", it being unclear whether "Beatiam" was an error for Sancha or whether it refers to another daughter not recorded elsewhere[690]. The Anales Toledanos record the death in Aug 1177 of “la Reyna de Navarra, filla del Emperador”[691].

He succeeded his father in 1157 as SANCHO III "el Deseado" King of Castile and Toledo. He negotiated a peace treaty with his brother at Sahagún 1158 to avoid further family conflicts which had until then marred the history of Castile. The Chronicon Burgense records the death in 1158 of “Rex Sancius filius Imperatoris”[720]. The Anales Toledanos record the death “el postrimer dia Dagosto” in 1158 of “el Rey D. Sancho fillo del Emperador”[721]. The Annales Compostellani record the death “Kal Sep” in 1158 of “Sancius filius Aldephonsi Imperatoris”[722]. m (Calahorra 30 Jan 1151) Infanta doña BLANCA de Navarra, daughter of GARCÍA VI “el Restaurador” King of Navarre & his first wife Marguerite de l’Aigle ([1137]-12 Aug 1156, bur Nájera, Cathedral Santa María de Real). The Annales Compostellani record the death “II Id Aug” in 1146 of “Regina Branca mater istius Aldefonsi Regis Castellæ…filia Garsiæ Regis Navarræ”[723], although the year is clearly incorrect. "Rex Sancius…domni Adefonsi imperatoris Hyspanie filius" donated "[monasterium] beate Marie de Naigara" to Cluny by charter dated 30 Aug 1156 "pro remedio…mulieris mee…regine domne Blanche quam in Jagarensi ecclesia sepelire feci"[724]. King Sancho III & his wife had three children: 1. son ([1153/54]-[1153/55]). Szabolcs de Vajay refers to a donation by King Alfonso VIII to San Pedro de Soria where “sepultura regum fratrum meorum...adornari cognosco”, indicating that the king had more than one brother[725]. If this is correct, the chronology dictates that he must have been born before King Alfonso. 2. Infante don ALFONSO de Castilla (Soria 11 Nov 1155-Gutiérre Múñoz near Arévalo 6 Oct 1214, bur Cistercian monastery Santa María la Real “de las Huelgas” near Burgos). The Anales Toledanos record the birth “noche de S. Martin…Viernes” in 1155 of “el Rey D. Alfonso”[726]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Aldefonsus rex Castelle et Toliti" as son of "rex Sanctius"[727]. He succeeded his father in 1158 as ALFONSO VIII “el Noble/él de las Navas” King of Castile, Toledo and Extremadura. - see below. 3. Infante don GARCÍA de Castilla (b and d Soria 24 Jun 1156, bur Soria, monastery of San Pedro). He must have been born prematurely if the date of birth of his older brother is correct. Szabolcs de Vajay refers to a donation by King Alfonso VIII to San Pedro de Soria where “sepultura regum fratrum meorum...adornari cognosco”[728]. The primary source which records his name has not been identified.
Infante don ALFONSO de Castilla, son of SANCHO III "el Deseado" King of Castile & his wife Infanta doña Blanca de Navarra (Soria 11 Nov 1155-Gutiérre Múñoz near Arévalo 6 Oct 1214, bur Cistercian monastery Santa María la Real “de las Huelgas” near Burgos). The Anales Toledanos record the birth “noche de S. Martin…Viernes” in 1155 of “el Rey D. Alfonso”[729]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Aldefonsus rex Castelle et Toliti" as son of "rex Sanctius"[730]. He succeeded his father 1158 as ALFONSO VIII “el Noble/él de las Navas” King of Castile, Toledo and Extremadura. His father's choice of Gutierre Fernández de Castro as tutor of Infante don Alfonso was challenged by the Lara family after the infant's accession, which triggered a war of rivalry in Castile between the Castro and Lara families[731]. He ruled through the regency of his uncle Fernando II King of León until 1169, disputed by the Castro and Lara families. "Aldefonsus…Toleti, Castella et extremature rex et dominus" granted holiday days to "monasterio Sancti Zoyli de Carrione" to Cluny by charter dated [11 Nov] 1169[732]. Recaptured Álava, Vizcaya and Guipúzcoa from the Moors. Defeated at Alarcón 18 Jul 1195 by the King of Morocco who helped the Almohades defend Seville. Taking advantage of his weakness, the Kings of Navarre and León invaded Castile, all parties being reconciled 1199 and agreeing to fight the Moors as a common cause. Alfonso VIII successfully led another crusade against the Almohades, culminating in victory at the battle of Las Navas de Tolosa 1212. King Alfonso VIII was the first king to bear the arms of Castile. The Annales Compostellani record the death “III Non Oct” in 1214 of “Aldefonsus Rex Castellæ”[733]. The Chronicon Bernardi Iterii records the death 15 Oct 1214 of "Ildefonsus rex de Castella"[734]. The Anales Toledanos record the death 5 Oct 1214 “en una aldea de Avila” of “el Rey D. Alfonso”[735]. m (Betrothed [1168/69], Burgos Sep, before 17, 1177) ELEANOR of England, daughter of HENRY II King of England & his wife Eléonore Dss d’Aquitaine (Domfront, Normandy 13 Oct 1162-Burgos 25 Oct 1214, bur Cistercian monastery Santa María la Real “de las Huelgas” near Burgos). Her betrothal to "Aldefonso regi Castellæ" is recorded by Matthew of Paris in 1168[736]. Ralph de Diceto´s Abbreviationes Chronicorum record in 1169 that “Alienor filia regis” married “Adelfunso regi Castellæ”[737]. Robert of Torigny records the marriage in 1170 of "Alienor filia Henrici regis Anglorum" and "Amfurso imperatore", commenting that he was not yet fifteen years old[738]. Alfonso VIII King of Castile "cum uxore mea Alionor regina et cum filiabus meis Berengaria et Sancia Infantissis" exchanged property with the Templars by charter dated 26 Jan 1183[739]. The Crónica Latina records that “el rey de Castilla” married “la hija del…rey Enrique, doña Leonor” and that his father-in-law had promised him Gascony[740]. The Annales Compostellani record the death “II Kal Nov” in 1214 of “Regina Alienor uxor Aldefonsi Regis Castellæ”[741]. The Anales Toledanos record the death “viernes el postrimo dia de Octubre” in 1214 of “la Reyna Doña Lionor, muggier del Rey D. Alfonso”[742]. King Alfonso VIII & his wife had [thirteen] children: 1. Infanta doña BERENGUELA de Castilla (Burgos Jan/Jun 1180-Las Huelgas, near Burgos 8 Nov 1246, bur Las Huelgas, Cistercian monastery of Santa María la Real). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Henricum qui iuvenis obiit et quinque sorores, prima Berengaria…secunda Urraca, tertia regina Francie, quarta Alienor, quinta Constantia monialis" as children of "sorore regis Anglie Richardi…Alienor…soror ex alio patre comitisse Marie Campaniensis", specifying that Berengaria was wife of "regi Legionensi id est regi Galicie…Alfunsus" and mother of "Fernandum successorem regis parvi in Castella et Toledo" and recording their marriage was initially permitted by Pope Innocent III despite consanguinity but subsequently prohibited, after which Berengaria became a Cistercian nun at Burgos[743]. Her date of birth is calculated from Robert of Torigny recording the birth "circa Pascha" in 1181 of "filium Sancius" to "Alienor filia regis Anglorum uxor Anfulsi regis de Castella", stating that she had previously had one daughter[744]. Alfonso VIII King of Castile "cum uxore mea Alionor regina et cum filiabus meis Berengaria et Sancia Infantissis" exchanged property with the Templars by charter dated 26 Jan 1183[745]. The Annales Compostellani record that “Rex Aldef.” betrothed “filias suas” in 1188[746]. The identity of Berenguela´s first husband is confirmed by the charter dated 14 Oct 1190 under which "Aldefonsus…rex Castelle et Toleti…cum uxore mea Alienor regina et cum filio meo Ferrando" donated property to the abbey of Silos, which also refers to the marriage between "romani imperatoris filium Conradum" and "filiam suam Berengariam"[747]. The Crónica Latina records that “Conrado, hijo de Federico, emperador de los romanos” was betrothed to “el rey de Castilla…su hija doña Berenguela”, adding that she was barely eight years old at the time[748]. Her second marriage, arranged by her father as part of the peace process with León, caused religious fury because of the close relationship of the parties. The Chronicon de Cardeña records that “Rey D. Alfonso de Leon” married “D. Alfonso…so fija Doña Berenguela”[749]. The Crónica Latina records that “doña Berenguela, hija del rey de Castilla” was married to “el rey de León”, when peace was established being Castile and León following the defeat at the battle of Alarcos, despite being related in the second degree of consanguinity[750]. Pope Innocent III excommunicated the couple, placed Castile and León under an interdict, and eventually annulled the marriage though agreed that their children remained legitimate. Infanta Berenguela became a nun at Las Huelgas in 1204, after separating from her husband. Regent for her brother Enrique I 1214, she became heiress in her own right to Castile, Toledo and Extremadura on his death but immediately ceded her rights to her son Infante don Fernando. She retired from public life in 1230, after transferring full power to her son. The Chronicon de Cardeña records the death in 1240 of “la Reyna Doña Berenguela, madre del Rey D. Fernando”[751]. The necrology of the Prieuré de Fontaines records the death "31 Oct" of "domina Berengeria, regina Castille et Toleti, soror domine Blanche Francorum regine"[752]. m firstly (contract Seligenstadt 23 Apr 1188, marriage not consummated) KONRAD von Staufen Herzog von Rothenburg, son of Emperor FRIEDRICH I “Barbarossa” & his second wife Béatrice Ctss de Bourgogne (Feb/Mar 1172-murdered Durlach 15 Aug 1196, bur Kloster Lorsch). He succeeded his brother in 1191 as KONRAD Duke of Swabia. m secondly (Valladolid [1/16] Dec 1197, annulled 1204) as his second wife, her first cousin, ALFONSO IX King of León, son of FERNANDO II King of León & his first wife Infanta dona Urraca de Portugal (Zamora 15 Aug 1171-Villanueva de Sarría 24 Sep 1230, bur Santiago de Compostela, Cathedral Santiago el Mayor). 2. Infante don SANCHO Infante de Castilla (Burgos 5 Apr 1181-26 Jul 1181, bur Las Huelgas, Cistercian monastery of Santa María la Real). Robert of Torigny records the birth "circa Pascha" in 1181 of "filium Sancius" to "Alienor filia regis Anglorum uxor Anfulsi regis de Castella"[753]. “Aldefonsus...Rex Castellæ et Toleti...cum uxore mea Alienor Regina et cum filio meo Rege Sancio” donated property to the bishop of Segovia by charter dated 31 May 1181[754]. “Adefonsus...Rex Castellæ et Toleti...cum uxore mea Alienor Regina et cum filio meo Rege Sancio” donated property to the monastery of Rocamador by charter dated 13 Jul 1181[755]. 3. Infante don ENRIQUE de Castilla (1182 before Jul-before Jan 1184). The dating clause of a charter dated Jul 1182 records “regnante el Rey D. Alfonso...con su mugier Doña Lionor, con su fijo D. Anric”[756]. The dating of the document in which his sister Sancha is named suggests that they may have been twins. 4. Infanta doña SANCHA de Castilla (20/28 Mar 1182-[3 Feb 1184/16 Oct 1185], bur Las Huelgas, Cistercian monastery of Santa María la Real). Alfonso VIII King of Castile "cum uxore mea Alionor regina et cum filiabus meis Berengaria et Sancia Infantissis" exchanged property with the Templars by charter dated 26 Jan 1183[757]. 5. Infante don FERNANDO de Castilla (before Jan 1184-young). The dating clause of a charter dated Jan 1184 (“V Kal Feb Era 1222”) records “regnante rege Alfonso cum uxore sua regina Eleonor et filio suo Fernando”[758]. 6. [Infante don SANCHO de Castilla ([1184/85]-1199). Colmenares´s Historia de Segovia, written in [1620], records an urn “de fábrica moderna y piedra blanca” on the main altar of “la abadía de San Tui [nombrada] antes de San Audito” whose inscription states that it contains the ashes and bones of “D. D. Sanctii, cuiusdam regis Castellæ filii” who had retired from the world and followed a monastic life and died in 1199[759]. Colmenares suggests that this refers to “el infante Don Sancho, hijo del rey Don Alonso Noble” [presumably King Alfonso VIII]. He cites “las coronicas de la órden de Santiago” which record that “Don Fernando Diaz maestre de aquella orden, renunciado el maestrazgo año 1186 se retiró al convento de San Audito” and adds “acaso en compañia del infante”. The Chronica de Sanctiago, written in 1572, to which Colmenares must be referring records that in 1186 “el Maestre don Fernan Diaz a instancia del Rey don Alonso” renounced “el Maestradgo” (after holding office for only two years) and that the king gave him “el Monesterio realengo de Sant Audito...para que viviesse alli con los Freyles de su Orden”[760]. This information cannot be verified further. However, it is not impossible that the queen gave birth in [1184/85] to a son named Sancho, who was severely handicapped, and that his father persuaded Maestro Fernando Díaz to resign his office to take care of the child and granted him the monastery where Sancho lived until his death a few years later.] 7. Infanta doña URRACA de Castilla ([1186/28 May 1187]-Coimbra 3 Nov 1220, bur Cistercian monastery of Santa María de Alcobaça). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Henricum qui iuvenis obiit et quinque sorores, prima Berengaria…secunda Urraca, tertia regina Francie, quarta Alienor, quinta Constantia monialis" as children of "sorore regis Anglie Richardi…Alienor…soror ex alio patre comitisse Marie Campaniensis", specifying that Urraca was "regina Portugalie"[761]. The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes records that "Aldefonsum", son of "Sancius" & his wife, married "Urracam filiam Regis Castellæ…Aldefonsi"[762]. The testament of “Regina Portugaliæ Donna Urraca”, dated 31 Jul 1214, fearing her own death bequeathed half of her property to “viro meo Regi Domno Alphonso”, and made various religious donations[763]. “Alphonsus...Portugaliæ Rex...cum uxore mea Regina D. Urraca et filliis meis Infantibus Dono Sancio et Dono Alphonso et Dona Eleonor” granted property “in Ansede” to “Gunsalvo Gomes homini meo” by charter dated Jun 1217[764]. The Breve Chronicon Alcobacense records that "Alfonsus" was buried "Alcobacie cum uxore sua domna Urraca filia regis Castelle domni Alfonsi"[765]. m (1206) Infante dom AFONSO de Portugal, son of SANCHO I “o Pobledor” King of Portugal & Infanta doña Dulcia de Aragón (Coimbra 23 Apr 1185-Coimbra 25 Mar 1223, bur Cistercian monastery of Santa María de Alcobaça). He succeeded his father in 1212 as AFONSO II “o Gordo” King of Portugal. 8. Infanta doña BLANCA de Castilla (Palencia [1188/89] before 4 Mar-Paris 27 Nov 1252, bur Notre-Dame de Maubuisson). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Blanche Francie regina" as daughter of "filio…Sanctii rege", in a later passage recording the marriage in 1200 of "Ludovicus filius regis Francie" and "Blancham filiam Alphonsi regis Castelle neptem ex sorore regum Anglie Richardi et Iohannis"[766]. The dating clause of a charter dated 4 Mar 1190 (“era MCCXXVIII”), which records a donation to Arlanza, states “anno quo nata est Palentie infantissa Blanca de regina Alienor”[767]. Blanca´s birth in 1190 appears inconsistent with the birth of her brother Fernando 29 Nov 1189. Fernando´s birth makes 1189 improbable as well, unless Blanca was born very early in the year. “[1188/89]” seems the best estimation, which is consistent with her having reached the age of 12 on her marriage. As part of continuing Anglo/French peace negotiations, John King of England gave Infanta Blanca (who was his niece) as dowry Issoudun and Graçay en Berry, le Vexin, Evreux and 20,000 marcs of silver. She was crowned Queen with her husband 6 Aug 1223. Regent of France during the minority of her son King Louis IX 1226-1234, and also during his absence on crusade 1248 until her death. An anonymous chronicle of the kings of France, written [1286/1314], records the death in 1252 of "Blanche...reine de France" and her burial "à l´abeïe de Maubuisson"[768]. Her death is recorded by Matthew of Paris[769]. The necrology of Hôtel-Dieu at Provins records the death "IV Kal Dec" of "Blancha Francorum regina"[770]. The necrology of the abbey of Saint-Denis records the death "V Kal Dec" of "Blanche regina"[771]. m (Abbaye de Port-Mort near Pont-Audemer, Normandy 23 May 1200) LOUIS de France, son of PHILIPPE II “Auguste” King of France & his first wife Isabelle de Hainaut (Paris, Palais Royal 3 Sep 1187-Château de Montpensier-en-Auvergne 8 Nov 1226, bur église de l'Abbaye royale de Saint-Denis). He succeeded his father in 1223 as LOUIS VIII King of France. 9. Infante don FERNANDO de Castilla (Cuenca 29 Nov 1189-Madrid 14 Oct 1211, bur Las Huelgas, Cistercian monastery of Santa María la Real). The Anales Toledanos record the birth “en Miercores dia de S. Saturnin” in 1189 of “el Infant D. Ferrando”[772]. The dating clause of a charter dated 16 Mar 1190 refers to “anno quo natus est...in civitate Concha rex Fredinandus filius...regis Aldefonsi et uxoris eius reginæ Alienor[773]. "Aldefonsus…rex Castelle et Toleti…cum uxore mea Alienor regina et cum filio meo Ferrando" donated property to the abbey of Silos by charter dated 14 Oct 1190, which also refers to the marriage between "romani imperatoris filium Conradum" and "filiam suam Berengariam"[774]. He was named heir to the throne of Castile 2 Dec 1189. He died "of a malignant fever" on returning from a campaign against the Moors in the Sierra de San Vicente[775]. The Annales Compostellani record the death “Id Oct” in 1211 of “Infans Fernandus filius Aldefonsi Regis Castellæ”[776]. The Anales Toledanos record the death 14 Oct 1211 of “el Infant D. Ferrando”[777]. The Crónica Latina records that “Fernando, hijo del rey” died in Madrid scarcely 15 days after returning from campaigning against the Moors and was buried “en el monasterio real…en Burgos”[778]. 10. Infanta doña MAFALDA de Castilla (1191-Salamanca 1204, bur Salamanca Cathedral). Szabolcs de Vajay says that she “died at the point of becoming the fiancée of the Infante Fernando of León” (without citing the primary source on which this information is based) and refers to her tomb in Salamanca[779]. Betrothed (1204) to Infante don FERNANDO de León, son of ALFONSO IX King of Leon & his first wife Infanta dona Teresa de Portugal ([1192/93]-Aug 1214, bur Santiago de Compostela, Cathedral of Santiago el Mayor). 11. Infanta doña CONSTANZA de Castilla ([1195]-Las Huelgas 1243, bur monastery of Santa María la Real at Las Huelgas). The Chronicon Mundi of Lucas Tudensis names "Berengariam et Blancam et Urracam et Alionoram et Constantiam" as the daughters of Alfonso VIII King of Castile and his wife, adding that Constanza became a nun[780]. Nun at the Cistercian monastery of Santa María la Real at Las Huelgas 1217, later Abbess. 12. Infanta doña LEONOR de Castilla ([1202]-Burgos 1244, bur monastery of Santa María la Real at Las Huelgas). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Henricum qui iuvenis obiit et quinque sorores, prima Berengaria…secunda Urraca, tertia regina Francie, quarta Alienor, quinta Constantia monialis" as children of "sorore regis Anglie Richardi…Alienor…soror ex alio patre comitisse Marie Campaniensis", specifying that Leonor was "Arragonum regina"[781]. The Crónica de San Juan de la Peña records the marriage of Jaime I King of Aragon and "la filia del Rey de Castiella…Elionor", stating that the couple was separated on grounds of consanguinity and that Leonor was buried "en el monasterio de Beruela"[782]. She became a nun at Las Huelgas after her separation from her husband. m (Agreda 6 Feb 1221, separated end Apr 1229 on grounds of consanguinity) as his first wife, JAIME I “el Conquistador” King of Aragon, Conde de Barcelona, son of PEDRO II King of Aragon & his wife Marie de Montpellier (Montpellier 1 Feb 1208-Valencia 27 Jul 1276, bur Poblet, monastery of Nuestra Señora). 13. Infante don ENRIQUE de Castilla (Valladolid 14 Apr 1204-Palencia 6 Jun 1217, bur Las Huelgas, Cistercian monastery of Santa María la Real). The Anales Toledanos record the birth 14 Apr 1204 of “el Infant D. Enric”[783]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Henricum qui iuvenis obiit et quinque sorores, prima Berengaria…secunda Urraca, tertia regina Francie, quarta Alienor, quinta Constantia monialis" as children of "sorore regis Anglie Richardi…Alienor…soror ex alio patre comitisse Marie Campaniensis"[784]. He became heir apparent in 1211 on the death of his older brother, and succeeded his father in 1214 as ENRIQUE I King of Castile, Toledo and Extremadura, under the regency firstly of his mother and, after three weeks, of his sister Berenguela. Nobles and church leaders took advantage of the weakness of his rule, Álvar de Toledo assuming a position of tyrannical power. The Annales Compostellani record the death in 1217 of “Enricus Rex Castellæ filius Aldefonsi Regis”[785]. King Enrique died after being injured by a tile falling from a roof. m (Burgos 1215 before 29 Aug, separated 1216 for consanguinity) Infanta dona MAFALDA de Portugal, daughter of SANCHO I “o Pobledor” King of Portugal & his wife Infanta doña Dulcia de Aragón (-Amarente, Rio Tinto 1 May 1256, bur Cistercian convent of Arouca). The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Mafalda, D. Sancha…D. Blanca…D. Teresa…" as the daughters of "D. Sancho Rey de Portugal" and his wife "D.

Chapter 3. KINGS of LEÓN
A. KINGS of LEÓN 1157-1230
Infante don FERNANDO de Castilla y León, son of ALFONSO VII "el Emperador" King of Castile and León & his first wife Berenguela de Barcelona (1137-Benavente 22 Jan 1188, bur Santiago de Compostela, Cathedral Santiago el Mayor). The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes names "Sancium et Fernandum, Elisabeth et Beatiam" as the children of "Aldefonsi Hispaniarum Regis" and his wife "Berengariam"[790]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Fernando" as brother of "rex Sanctius"[791]. "Santius et…Fredinandus et Garsias filii ymperatories" confirmed the charter dated 12 Sep 1142 under which Alfonso VII King of Castile donated "uillam…Taranna" to "Martino Didaci"[792]. "Sancius et…Fernandus et Garsias filii imperatoris…" confirmed the charter dated 19 Aug 1146 under which Alfonso VII King of Castile donated "ecclesiam…sanctam Mariam de Uelerda" to "Martino Didaci"[793]. “Adefonsus Imperator Hispaniæ...cum uxore mea Imperatrice Domina Rica et cum filiis meis Sancio et Ferrando Regibus” donated property to the bishop of Segovia by charter dated 28 Jan 1155[794]. He succeeded his father in 1157 as FERNANDO II King of León, Galicia and Extremadura. Regent for his nephew Alfonso VIII King of Castile. He founded the brotherhood of the knights of Cáceres (“hermandad de freiles de Cáceres”) shortly after capturing the town in 1170. This soon developed into the Order of Santiago, which received the confirmation of the Papacy 1175, when the archbishop of Santiago entered the order as an honorary knight and donated a standard of the saint. The Annales Compostellani record the death in 1187 of “Fernandus Rex Legionis”[795]. The Anales Toledanos record the death in 1188 of “el Rey D. Ferrando, fillo del Emperador”[796]. m firstly ([May/Jun] 1165, repudiated [Feb 1171/1172]) Infanta dona URRACA de Portugal, daughter of AFONSO I Henriques King of Portugal & his wife Mathilde de Savoie ([1151]-Valladolid 16 Oct 1188). The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes names "Sancium et Urracam…et aliam filiam…Tarasia" as the children of "Aldefonsum" & his wife, specifying that Urraca married "Fernandi Regis Legionensis"[797]. The Chronicon Lusitanum records that “D. Orracam” daughter of “Rex Donnus Alfonsus” and his wife “Donnam Matildam, Comitis Amadæi de Moriana filiam” married “Regi Legionensium Donno Fernando”, adding in a later passage that they married in Aug 1209 (1171)[798]. The Crónica Latina records that “el rey Fernando” married “Urraca, hija de Alfonso rey de Portugal” but that they were related in the third degree of consanguinity[799]. "Regina Sancia comitis Raymundi et regine Urrache regia proles" donated an inn near Mucientes to Sahagún monastery by charter dated 15 Mar 1158, subscribed by "Regina Urracha de Asturias, Stephania Infantissa filia imperatoris…"[800]. The dating clause of a charter dated 13 Feb 1171 records "regnante Rege Donno F. in Legione, Galesia, Asturiis et Extrematus…cum uxore sua regina donna Urracha"[801]. Lucas de Tuy records that "Rex Fernandus" repudiated "uxorem suam Urracam filiam Regis Adefonsi, eo quod erat consanguinea eius propinquo gradu"[802]. The precise dating of the couple’s separation is uncertain, but Salazar y Castro states he found no charters naming Urraca as King Fernando’s wife after 1171[803]. m secondly ([1172/6 May 1173]) TERESA [Núñez de Lara, daughter of NUÑO Pérez de Lara & his wife Teresa Fernández de Traba] (-León 7 Feb 1180, bur León, monastery of San Isidro). Salazar y Castro states that the Coronica General records the marriage of "el Rey D. Ferrando" and "Doña Teresa fija del conde D. Nuño de Castiella"[804]. There is some doubt whether King Fernando II’s second wife was the widow or daughter of Nuño Pérez de Lara. Lucas de Tuy records that "Rex Fernandus" married secondly "Tharasiam qua fuerat uxor Nunii comitis de Castella"[805], and Rodrigo de Jiménez that the king married "Tarasiam filiam comitis Fernandi, quæ fuerat uxor comitis Nunii de Castella"[806]. Salazar y Castro (following numerous earlier authors which he cites) highlights the difficulties with these texts as written (especially because of “la desigualdad de las edades” of the parties and their consanguinity which would have been even closer than the relationship between King Fernando and his first wife for whose marriage a dispensation was refused), although he cites no earlier primary source which confirms that the king´s wife was Nuño’s daughter. A charter dated 6 May 1173 (“Era MCCXI”) records the sale of property by “Nuño Gontinez y su muger Ximena Ovequez” which had been granted to them by "Rege F. et Regina domina Tarasia…in Montenigro…Villar ripam de Goaa"[807]. Given the death of Nuño Pérez de Lara in 1177, this document would settle the question if accurate but no other reference to the charter has been found to check Salazar y Castro’s extract (in particular whether the date is correctly transcribed). Szabolcs de Vajay accepts the second marriage of Teresa Fernández (Nuño’s widow) with the king, supposedly finding the solution to the chronological difficulties by saying that she was Fernando Pérez´s daughter "by Sancha González (and not, as is often alleged, by the Infanta Teresa of Portugal)"[808]. His solution is inconsistent with the rather garbled text of the Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos which names "D. Sancha Vermuiz, D. Teresa Vermuiz" as the children of "D. Vermui Perez Potestade de Trava" [presumably an error] and his first wife "la Reina D. Teresa de Portugal", in a later passage recording that "El Conde D. Nuño de Lara" married "D. Teresa Fernandez"[809]. While acknowledging that there is no guarantee of the accuracy of Pedro de Barcelos, Szabolcs’s solution does not in any case resolve the chronological problems. The marriages of Fernando Pérez de Traba´s legitimate children by his wife are noted between 1142 and 1150, which would presumably place their births around [1120/35]. This still appears early for the possible birth date of King Fernando II’s second wife given the birth of the couple´s children in [1178/80]. The problems would be resolved if the king’s wife was Nuño’s daughter and not his widow, in line with the Coronica General. This would assume that both Lucas de Tuy and Rodrigo de Jiménez were incorrect, but is consistent with Queen Teresa being named in May 1173, four years before the death of Nuño Pérez, and also with her death in childbirth in 1180 (see below). It should also be noted that Salazar y Castro records that Nuño Pérez and his wife were both buried in the monastery of Perales[810]: no document has been found which confirms this statement, but if it is correct the evidence would be conclusive as a monument in San Isidro, León records the burial of "Regina…coniux Tarasia Regis Fernandi"[811]. Szabolcs de Vajay cites the epitaph which confirms that Queen Teresa died in childbirth[812]. An apparently contrary indication is provided by an early 13th century document: Álvaro Núñez de Lara (son of Nuño Pérez de Lara and his wife) is described as “filius comitis domni Nunonis et regine domne Tarasie” in a donation of property to Sobrado by charter dated 23 Nov 1204[813]. Sánchez de Mora identifies Álvaro’s mother as Teresa Queen of León[814], which is consistent with a literal reading of the wording. However, he does not consider the possibility of an omission in the document (“nepos” omitted after “et”, for example) which could then represent a reference to Álvaro’s descent from Teresa Queen of Portugal, an illustrious relationship which a scribe would have considered worthy of record. In conclusion, there are factors which point both ways, but on balance it seems more likely that King Fernando’s wife was Nuño’s daughter, as Nuño’s widow would have been over fifty in 1180, unusually old for child-bearing. m thirdly (May 1187) URRACA López de Haro, widow of NUÑO Menéndez Señor de Ceón y Riaño, daughter of conde LÓPE Díaz de Haro, Señor de Vizcaya & his second wife Aldonza Rodríguez (-Cistercian monastery of Vilena 1223, bur Vilena).

King Fernando II & his first wife had one child: 1. Infante don ALFONSO de León (Zamora 15 Aug 1171-Villanueva de Sarría 24 Sep 1230, bur Santiago de Compostela, Cathedral Santiago el Mayor). The Chronicon Conimbricensi records the birth “mense Februario…in die Ascensionis Domini” (presumably an error) in 1171 of “Rex Alfonsus filius Regis Fernandi et Dñæ Orace Reginæ”[818]. He succeeded his father in 1188 as ALFONSO IX King of León and Galicia. - see below. King Fernando II & his second wife had two children: 2.

Szabolcs de Vajay cites the epitaph which confirms that his/her mother died in childbirth[820]. King Fernando II & his third wife had three children: 4. GARCÍA Fernández (1182-1184, bur León, monastery of San Isidro). Szabolcs de Vajay quotes the epitaph of “Garsia, Fernandi regis filius”[821]. 5. Infante don ALFONSO Fernández de León (1184-before 22 Jan 1188). He is named by Szabolcs de Vajay who cites no primary source[822]. 6. Infante don SANCHO Fernández de León (1186-Cañamero 25 Aug 1220, bur Cistercian monastery of Santa María de Perales). The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Sancho" as the son of Fernando II King of León, adding in a later passage that he was killed by a bear "en Cañamero"[823]. Szabolcs de Vajay confuses Infante don Sancho Fernández with his illegitimate half-brother Sancho Fernández (see below)[824], although the Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos (assuming it is factually accurate) makes it clear that they were two different persons. “Regina domna Vrraka Lupi...cum filio meo infanti Santio et filia mea Maria Nunez” donated “hereditate de Magroueio...in Mafules” to “magistro Michaeli” by charter dated 1195[825].

The Annales Compostellani record that “Infans Sancius Fernan” was killed by a bear in 1219 “in Monte Aragone”[826]. The Anales Toledanos record that “Sancho Fernandez, fillo del Rey D. Fernando, fillo del Emperador” was killed by a bear 25 Aug 1220[827]. "Domna Urraca Lupi Regina filia comitis Lupi" donated property to the monastery of Las Huelgas de Burgos for the foundation of the monastery of Vileña, for the soul of "filiique mei Sanci Ferrandi", by charter dated Apr 1222[828]. m ([after 1210][829]) TERESA Díaz de Haro, daughter of DIEGO López “el Bueno” Conde de Haro, Señor de Vizcaya & his second wife Toda Pérez. Szabolcs de Vajay records her parentage and marriage, dating the marriage to "after 1210", but does not cite the primary source on which the information is based[830]. The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos does not name the wife of Infante don Sancho Fernández[831]. Infante Sancho & his wife had one child: a) MARÍA Sánchez de Fines (-after 1240). The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Iuan Sanchez de Fines, D. Maria Sanchez" as the children of "D. Sancho Fernandez", son of Fernando II King of León, in a later passage recording that "D. Pedro Fernandez de Castro llamado el Castellano" married "D. Maria Sanchez"[832]. Szabolcs de Vajay names her second husband but cites no primary source which confirms the marriage[833]. m firstly as his second wife, her second cousin, PEDRO Fernández de Castro “él de la Guerra”, son of FERNANDO Rodríguez de Castro & his second wife Estefanía Alfonso "la Desdichada" ([1170]-Marmelos, Morocco 18 Aug 1214, bur Bernardine monastery of Santa María de Valbuena).

Sancho Fernandez", illegitimate son of Fernando II King of León, married "D. Teresa Gomez de Roa Rica Dueña"[835]. Sancho & his wife had two children: a) JUAN Sánchez de Fines . The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Juan Sanchez de Fines, D. Maria Sanchez" as the children of "D. Sancho Fernandez", illegitimate son of Fernando II King of León, and his wife "D. Teresa Gomez de Roca Rica Dueña", adding that Juan captured the castle of Fines from the Moors[836]. Señor de Fines. same person as…? DIEGO Sánchez de Fines (-after [May/Jun] 1282). As no other references have been found to an individual named "Juan Sánchez de Fines", it is assumed that the Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos misnamed "Diego" as "Juan" in the passage quoted above. Salazar y Castro names "D. Diag Sanchez ricohombre I señor de Fines y de Alva de Tormes, Salvatierra y Villanueva, Adelantado mayor de la frontera, hijo de don Sancho Fernandez…hijo de D. Fernando II", from the context implying that his father was Sancho Fernández, illegitimate son of King Fernando II, when recording his marriage[837]. Szabolcs de Vajay confuses Infante don Sancho Fernández with his illegitimate half-brother Sancho Fernández and states that "Diego Sánchez de Fines" (placing his birth at "c. 1204", without stating the basis for this estimate) was the son of Infante don Sancho[838], although this contradicts the record in the Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos (assuming that that source is factually accurate). Argote Molina quotes a charter "en el archivo de la Sancta Iglesia de Toledo" which records a donation made by "Diag" who states that "gané Fines el castillo cerca de Valdeporchena", dated 1242[839]. The Primera Crónica General de España records that Fernando III King of Castile journeyed to Córdoba, intending to attack Carmona, in 1246, accompanied by "don Alfonso su hermano, don Anrrique du fijo, los maestres…de Vclés et de Calatraua, et Diego Ssánchez, et don Gutier Ssuárez"[840]. The Primera Crónica General de España records that "Diego Sánchez y Sebastián Gutiérrez" were attacked by Muslims in Sevilla and that Diego Sánchez would have been killed if help had not arrived from the Castilian army (undated)[841]. Adelantado mayor de Andalucía (or de la Frontera) [Apr/Jun] 1258 to 1261 (after 11 Jan), and 1272 (before 23 Jun) to 1273 (after 3 Jan)[842]. "…Diago Sanchez…" subscribed the charter dated 11 Sep 1262 under which Alfonso X King of Castile approved the division of property between Toledo and Talavera[843]. A document dated 26 Apr 1265 records "nuestra hermandad" between the councils of Córdoba, Jaén, Baeza, Úbeda, Andújar, Santisteban, Iznatoraf, Quesada y Cazorla and "D. Diago Sanchez de Funes, é con D. Sancho Martinez de Jodar"[844]. Alfonso X King of Castile granted "un molinar en el Guadalquivir entre Estibel y Mengíbar" to "Diego Sánchez de Funes" by charter dated 28 Apr 1269[845]. Alfonso X King of Castile granted the rights in "Mengíbar y en término de Baez" held by "Día Iennéguez" and "Diag Sánchez" to the council of Jaen for three years by charter dated [May/Jun] 1282[846]. Szabolcs de Vajay records that there were two individuals, father and son, both named "Diego Sánchez de Fines", stating that the father died "1260" (no primary source cited) and the son "1296"[847]. On the other hand, Argote Molina proceeds on the assumption that there was only one person of this name[848], as does Vázquez Campos[849]. Insufficient primary source data has been found to reach a sensible judgment about which position is correct. One of the difficulties is that, according to Vázquez Campos, "Diego Sánchez de Fines" held the office of adelantado Mayor de Andalucía during two separate periods of time as noted above (1258 to 1261 and 1272 to 1273). Szabolcs de Vajay may therefore have proceeded under the impression that the position was held for life until the death of the incumbent (although the primary source documentation which has so far consulted during the preparation of the present documentation is insufficiently detailed to justify this impression), and concluded that there must have been two persons of the same name. m [firstly] (1246) TERESA Gómez de Villalobos, daughter of GÓMEZ González de Aza & his wife Teresa Gil de Villalobos. Salazar y Castro records that "doña Teresa Fomez de Roa" married "D.

The primary source which confirms her parentage and marriage has not yet been identified.] Diego & his [first] wife had one child: i) JUAN Díaz de Fines (-young). Szabolcs de Vajay names "Juan Díaz de Fines, died young" as the son of Diego Sánchez de Fines and his wife Teresa Gómez but does not cite the primary source on which this information is based[852]. Diego & his [second] wife had one child: ii) JUANA Díaz de Fines. Szabolcs de Vajay records Juana as the daughter of Diego Sánchez de Fines (the younger) and his wife Juana Ruiz de Haro, but does not cite the primary source on which this information is based[853]. Argote Molina names "doña Juana Diaz" as the daughter of "don Diego Sánchez de Funes" (proceeding on the assumption that there was only one person of that name, as noted above) but does not name her mother, recording her marriage to "Rodrigo Iñíguez de Biedma Señor de Estiviel y Alcayde de los Alcaçares de Iaen" but does not cite the primary source on which this information is based[854].

The Chronicon Conimbricensi records the birth “mense Februario…in die Ascensionis Domini” (presumably an error) in 1171 of “Rex Alfonsus filius Regis Fernandi et Dñæ Orace Reginæ”[857]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Aldefonsus rex Legionis" as son of "Fernando [frater regis Sanctii]"[858]. He succeeded his father in 1188 as ALFONSO IX King of León and Galicia. He held the first documented Cortes in León in 1188, attended by duly elected representatives of towns as well as nobles and ecclesiasts. The Pope excommunicated him because of his first marriage, between cousins without papal dispensation, and placed León under an interdict until Alfonso agreed to a separation. Another dispute broke out with the church after he married his second wife, also his first cousin, from whom he was also obliged to separate. He succeeded in 1217 as ALFONSO IX King of Castile, by right of his second wife and son. He successfully campaigned against the Moors, capturing Lazeres, Merida, Elvas, Badajoz and several towns in Extremadura in 1228. The Anales Toledanos record the death in 1230 “en Villanneva de Saria” of “el Rey Don Alfonso de Leon, Padre del Rey D. Fernando”[859]. m firstly (Guimarães 15 Feb 1191, separated 1195, annulled for consanguinity 1198) his first cousin, Infanta dona TERESA de Portugal, daughter of SANCHO I “o Pobledor” King of Portugal & his wife Dulce de Barcelona ([1176]-Lorvano 17/18 Jun 1250, bur Lorvano, Cistercian monastery of Nuestra Señora de la Expectación). The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes records the marriage of "Tarasiam", other daughter of "Rex…Sancius", and "Aldefonso Regi Legionensi", specifying that the union was incestuous[860]. Nun at Lorvano 1200. Co-founder of the Dominican convent at Coimbra. The testament of “Sancius...Portugaliæ Rex”, dated Oct 1209, bequeathed property to “...nepos meus Infans Donnus Fernandus...filiæ meæ Reginæ Donnæ Tharasiæ...Reginæ Donnæ Sanciæ...Reginæ Donna Maphalda...Reginæ Donnæ Blancæ...Reginæ Donnæ Bereng...Infanti Donnæ Dulciæ nepti meæ...Infanti D.

The Chronicon de Cardeña records that “Rey D. Alfonso de Leon” married “D. Alfonso…so fija Doña Berenguela”[863]. The Crónica Latina records that “doña Berenguela, hija del rey de Castilla” was married to “el rey de León”, when peace was established being Castile and León following the defeat at the battle of Alarcos, despite being related in the second degree of consanguinity[864]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Henricum qui iuvenis obiit et quinque sorores, prima Berengaria…secunda Urraca, tertia regina Francie, quarta Alienor, quinta Constantia monialis" as children of "sorore regis Anglie Richardi…Alienor…soror ex alio patre comitisse Marie Campaniensis", specifying that Berengaria was wife of "regi Legionensi id est regi Galicie…Alfunsus" and mother of "Fernandum successorem regis parvi in Castella et Toledo" and recording their marriage was initially permitted by Pope Innocent III despite consanguinity but subsequently prohibited, after which Berengaria became a Cistercian nun at Burgos[865]. Her second marriage, arranged by her father as part of the peace process with León, caused religious fury because of the close relationship of the parties. Pope Innocent III excommunicated the couple, placed Castile and León under an interdict, and eventually annulled the marriage though agreed that their Children remained legitimate. Infanta Berenguela became a nun at Las Huelgas 1204, after separating from her husband. Regent for her brother Enrique I 1214, she became heiress in her own right to Castile, Toledo and Extremadura on his death but immediately ceded her rights to her son Infante don Fernando. She retired from public life in 1230, after transferring full power to her son. The Chronicon de Cardeña records the death in 1240 of “la Reyna Doña Berenguela, madre del Rey D. Fernando”[866]. The necrology of the Prieuré de Fontaines records the death "31 Oct" of "domina Berengeria, regina Castille et Toleti, soror domine Blanche Francorum regine"[867]. Mistress (1): [1195] ---.

Mistress (4): [1210-1215] ESTEFANÍA Pérez, daughter of PEDRO Arias de Limia [Mayordomo Mayor of King Fernando II of León] & his second wife Constanza Osorio (-1249 or after).

The Kings of Granada and Murcia declared themselves his vassals. He was making preparations for a crusade into North Africa, for which he was negotiating for support from Henry III King of England, when he died[967]. King Fernando III was the first of his family to quarter the arms of Castile with León[968]. He was canonised by Pope Clement X in 1671, feast day 30 May[969].

The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines refers to, but does not name, the four daughters of "comes de Pontivo Symon" (in order) as the wives of "rex Castelle de Hispanie Fernandus…maiorem filius vicecomitis de Castro Araudi…comitis de Augo…comes de Roceio"[977].

It is not known whether the document accords the queen´s title to Jeanne because she was already married or just betrothed at that date. The contract of marriage between "Ferrandi…regis Castelle et Toleti, Legionis et Galicie" and "donna Johanna…socero nostro…comite Pontivi" is noted in a charter dated Jan 1238 (New Style) issued by Louis IX King of France, which also refers to the king of Castile's letter dated 31 Oct 1237[979]. She succeeded her father as Ctss d‘Aumâle in 1239. She succeeded her mother 1251 as Ctss de Ponthieu. She returned to France as a widow in 1253[980].

The Continuator of Florence of Worcester records the death in 1279 of "regina Hispanie, domina Pontivi, mater Alienoræ reginæ Angliæ"[982]. King Fernando III & his first wife had ten children: 1. Infante don ALFONSO de Castilla y León (Toledo 23 Nov 1221-Seville 4 Apr 1284, bur Seville, Cathedral Santa María). The Anales Toledanos record the birth 23 Nov 1221 of “el Infant D.

[m secondly --- Komnene Dukaina, daughter of NIKEPHOROS Dukas I Angelos Lord of Epirus & his first wife Anna Palaiologina Kantakuzene (1258-[before 1294]). This unnamed daughter of Nikephoros Lord of Epirus is shown in Europäische Stammtafeln[991], according to which she was later baptised as Catarina and married (presumably as his second wife) Infante don Fadrique de Castilla. Szabolcs de Vajay states that Infante Fadrique's alleged marriage to the daughter of Nikephoros Lord of Epirus "seems apocryphal, perhaps based on a typical speculation by Pellicer", possibly resulting from confusion with her half-sister Katarina née Thamar, wife of Philippe Principe di Tarento [Anjou-Sicily][992].] Infante Fadrique & his [first] wife had one child: a) BEATRIZ Fadrique ([1242]-1277, bur Sahagún, Cistercian monastery of San Facundo y San Primitivo). The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Beatriz Fadrique" as the child of "D. Fadrique" and his wife "la Infanta D. Malespina"[993]. The Livro Velho records that "Affonso Telles filho de Affonso Telles de Coroua" married "D. Brites Fradique filha do infante D. Fadrique e da condesa D. Malespina"[994]. Zurita names “hija del Infante [D. Fadrique]” as the wife of “D.

Szabolcs de Vajay records her parentage and two marriages but cites no primary sources on which the information is based[997]. c) --- Fadrique (in Italy [1260]-).

Señor de Troya. m ---. One child: (1) LANZELOTO (-after 18 Jul 1394).

The Chronicon Mundi of Lucas Tudensis names "Adefonsum, Fredericum, Fernandum, Philippum, Henricum, Sancium, Emanuelem" as the sons of Fernando III King of Castile and his first wife[1000]. "Ferrandus…Rex Castelle et Toleti…cum uxore mea Regina Beatrice et filiis meis Alfonso, Frederico, Fernando" donated property at Villabañez to the church of Valladolid by charter dated 27 Apr 1226[1001].

Infante Fernando had one illegitimate son by an unknown mistress: a) ALFONSO Fernández (-after 22 Jan 1284). According to Szabolcs de Vajay, he was the son of Infante don Fernando[1003]. The author cites previous authors who attributed the paternity of Alfonso Fernández to Fernando de la Cerda, but also the 22 Jan 1284 codicil to the will of Alfonso X "el Sabio" King of Castile, cited by Masnata, which refers to Alfonso as "nuestro sobrino y nuestro consegero"[1004]. Although this appears to indicate that Alfonso's father was one of King Alfonso X's brothers, it is not clear what proof there is that his father was Infante don Fernando. 4. Infanta doña LEONOR de Castilla y León (1226-young). The Chronicon Mundi of Lucas Tudensis names "Alienor, Berengariam et Mariam" as the daughters of Fernando III King of Castile and his first wife[1005]. 5.

The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Alvaro Nuñez, D. Juan Nuñez, D. Nuño Gonçalez. D. Juana Nuñez la Palomilla, D. Teresa Nuñez" as the children of "D. Juan Nuñez el Gordo" and his wife "D. Teresa Alvarez", an earlier passage recording that "El Infante D. Enrique" married "D. Juana Nuñez la Palomilla", and another passage that "D. Fernando de la Cerda" married "D. Iuana Nuñez la Palomilla, viuda del Infante D. Enrique"[1013]. The Crónica del Rey Fernando IV records the marriage of “don Juan Nuñez...su hermana...doña Juana” and “don Enrique”, dated to [1299/1300] from the context[1014]. She married secondly (1308) Infante don Fernando de la Cerda de Castilla. She succeeded her brother in 1315 as Señora de Lara and Vizcaya. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the death “dia de la Trinidad...en Palencia” in 1351 of “Doña Juana de Lara madre [de] Don Juan Nuñez...fija de Don Juan Nuñez de Lara é de Doña Teresa, hermana del Conde Don Lope Señor de Vizcaya”, adding that she had first married “el Infante Don Enrique fijo del Rey Don Ferrando” when she was “muy moza”[1015].

Anrique Anriquez de Sevilla, D. Alfonso Anriquez su fijo, Don Fernando Anriquez su hermano...” subscribed the charter dated 27 Jan 1343 under which King Alfonso XI confirmed the privileges of the convent of San Augustin de Dueñas[1018]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I names “grandes parientes...Don Enrique Enriquez é Ferran Enriquez su fijo...” of “Doña Leonor de Guzman” present at Medina Sidonia, when the body of King Alfonso XI passed through the town in 1350[1019]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that King Pedro in 1354 granted “el Alcazar de Jaen é el castillo de Dueñas é el castillo de Castro Xeriz” to “Don Enrique Enriquez”, who was married to “Doña Urraca su tia de la dicha Doña Juana, hermana de Doña Isabel su madre”, to obtain his support for his marriage to “Doña Juana de Castro fija de Don Pedro de Castro que decian de la Guerra...”[1020]. According to Szabolcs de Vajay, Don Enrique may have been the ancestor of the family of Henríquez at Seville and Salamanca[1021], but no details are known apart from the descendants shown below. [m URRACA Pérez Ponce de León, daughter of PEDRO Ponce de León Señor de Cangas y Tineo & his second wife Sancha Gil de Bragança. The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Fernando sin hijos, D. Rodrigo de las Asturias, D. Isabel, D. Juana, D. Urraca" as the children of "D. Pedro Ponzo" and his second wife "D. Sancha Gil Bragança", an earlier passage recording that "D. Enrique Enriquez nieto del Infante D. Enrique" married "D. Urraca"[1022]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I also records that “Doña Urraca su tia de la...Doña Juana, hermana de Doña Isabel su madre” married “Don Enrique Enriquez”[1023]. On the other hand, the Livro Velho names "D. Urraca" as daughter of "D. Pedro filho de Fernam Rodrigues de Castro" and his wife, adding that she married "Henrique Henriques"[1024], which if correct means that she was URRACA Pérez de Castro, daughter of PEDRO Rodríguez de Castro & his second wife Isabel Pérez Ponce de León. Neither of these suggested affiliations appears satisfactory from a chronological point of view, assuming that the birth date of Enrique´s father is correctly estimated to [1246], although the first possibility appears more likely than the second. This hypothesis is corroborated by Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I which records that King Pedro in 1354 declared that “él lo mostraria que con derecho se podia partir de la...Doña Blanca, é que non era su muger” in order to marry “Doña Juana de Castro fija de Don Pedro de Castro que decian de la Guerra...muger que fuera de Don Diego de Haro fijo de Don Lope de Haro é nieto de Don Diego Señor de Vizcaya...”, adding that “Don Enrique Enriquez” was married to “Doña Urraca su tia de la dicha Doña Juana, hermana de Doña Isabel su madre” and that he supported the plan because the king granted him “el Alcazar de Jaen é el castillo de Dueñas é el castillo de Castro Xeriz”[1025].] Enrique & his wife had two children: (a) ALFONSO Enríquez (-after 27 Jan 1343). “...D.

Felipe" as the sons of King Alfonso IV and his wife, adding that Alfonso, Enrique and Felipe were childless[1179]. The Chronicon Domini Joannis Emmanuelis records the birth in Dec 1285 of “Rex Dns Fernandus, filius Regis Dni Sancii, in Hispali”[1180]. He succeeded in 1295 as FERNANDO IV "el Ajurno" King of Castile and León. During his minority, his mother (as regent on his behalf) played an active part in subduing rebellious factions led by Diego [V] de Haro and Diniz King of Portugal. The Chronicon Domini Joannis Emmanuelis records that “Rex Aragonum” captured “Regnum Murciæ” and invaded Castile in 1297[1181]. The Chronicon Domini Joannis Emmanuelis records that the king dismissed “tutoriam Infans Dns Henricus” in Feb 1302[1182]. The Chronicon Domini Joannis Emmanuelis records that “Rex Dns Fernandus” besieged Algeciras and captured Gibraltar in Aug 1309[1183]. The cartulary of Tulle St Martin records the grant by "don Ferrando…rey de Castella, de Toledo, de Leon, de Gallizia, de Sevilla, de Cordoua, de Murcia, de jahen, del Algarbe et senor de Molona…con la reyna dona Costança mi muger" dated 1304, subscribed by "don Mahomet Abevaçar rey de Granada vassallo del rey, el Infante don Johan tye del rey, el Infante don Peydro hermano del rey, el Infante don Filipe hermano del rey, el Infante don Alfonso de Portogal vassallo del rey"[1184].

Père Anselme names Blanche as daughter of King Philippe IV and says that she was “accordée par contrat passé le mardy avant Pâques fleuries 1294 à Ferdinand Infant de Castille”, adding that she died young and was buried near her father[1188]. As noted below, it is unclear why, if Blanche was her father’s third daughter, she was chosen for betrothal to Infante don Fernando in Apr 1294 instead of her presumed older sister Marguerite. One explanation is confusion in the calendar year of Blanche’s betrothal (O.S.?) and that her betrothal followed Marguerite’s. Another possibility is confusion in the order of birth of the king’s daughters. Betrothed (end Oct 1294) to MARGUERITE de France, daughter of PHILIPPE IV "le Bel" King of France & his wife Juana I Queen of Navarre ([1291/92]-after Nov 1294). Père Anselme names Marguerite as eldest daughter of King Philippe IV and says that she “fut promise par traité passé avant la fête de la Toussaints 1294 à Ferdinand IV roy de Castille, mais cela n’eut aucun effet”[1189]. If it is correct that Marguerite was her father’s oldest daughter, it is unclear why she was not betrothed to Infante don Fernando in [Apr] 1294, the date of his betrothal to her supposed younger sister Blanche (unless there was confusion about the year of Blanche’s betrothal and that Marguerite’s betrothal to Fernando preceded hers). One possibility is confusion in the order of birth of the king’s daughters. m (Valladolid 23 Jan 1302) Infanta dona COSTANÇA de Portugal, daughter of DINIZ King of Portugal & his wife Infanta doña Isabel de Aragón (3 Jan 1290-Sahagun 18 Nov 1313, bur Valladolid).

This marriage was presumably annulled, as shown by the following extract, although confirmation of the annulment has not been found in the primary sources so far consulted. Edward II King of England appointed proxies for the proposed marriage between “primogenitum filium nostrum Edwardum” and “domicellam Alianoram sororem...Alfonsi...regis Ispaniæ“ by charter dated 6 Feb 1325[1193].

Her second marriage was arranged as part of Aragon's renewed alliance with Castile, formed with the aim of reconquering Granada. She became a disruptive influence in Aragon, plotting to advance the interests of her own sons over those of her stepson Infante don Pedro. After her second husband's death, Pedro IV King of Aragon at first moved to confiscate her revenues and prosecute her protector Pedro de Ejérica, but in 1338 he confirmed her and her sons in possession of their domains, not wishing to antagonise Castile at a time when Spain was threatened by a new Moorish invasion. She continued to plot against her stepson, eventually returning to Castile where she was also a disruptive influence. Her nephew Pedro I "el Cruel" King of Castile imprisoned her with Juana de Lara and ordered her murder. The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Fernando, D. Juan" as the sons of "D. Alonso Rey de Aragon" and his wife "D. Leonor", adding that Juan was "vassallo del Rey D. Pedro de Castilla, que le mato juntamente con la Reina D.

González quotes an epitaph at Santo Domingo el Real de Madrid which records the burial of “la Infanta doña Constança, hija del Rey don Fernando, hermana del Rey don Alfonso XI, y tia del Rey don Pedro”[1197]. Florez doubts the credibility of this epitaph (the language indicates it is most likely not contemporary) and says “haviendo yo procurado informarme, he sabido que no hay tal Epitafio”[1198].] 3.

The codicil of “Donna Beatriz...Raynha de Portugal”, dated 27 Dec 1354, amending her testament dated 21 Mar 1349, made bequests to “Raynha de Castella minha filha...Raynha de Aragon minha filha...”[1211].

Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that “Don Juan Nuñez de Lara Señor de Vizcaya” protected “Doña Leonor de Guzman” at Medina Sidonia in 1350, but in a later passage that she was imprisoned when she arrived at Seville[1215]. Her imprisonment can be dated to before 16 Jul 1350, the date of a charter which records that “Don Alfonso Mendez, Maestre de Santiago” had taken from Ucles “el sello de Cabildo de la Orden” which, after his death at Algeciras, was taken by “Doña Leonor de Guzman su hermana” with permission of King Alfonso XI, the document recording her subsequent arrest and imprisonment[1216]. She was murdered on the orders of King Pedro. King Alfonso XI & his second wife had two children: 1. Infante don FERNANDO de Castilla y León (Valladolid 1332-Toro [8 Feb/22 Sep] 1333). The Crónica del Rey Alfonso XI records the birth in Valladolid of “[el] Infante fijo primero heredero...Don Fernando”, in 1332 from the context[1217]. The Crónica del Rey Alfonso XI records that the king received news from Toro (where he had been sent to be brought up) of the death of “[el] Infante Don Fernando su fijo primero heredero”, dated to 1333 from the context[1218]. 2. Infante don PEDRO de Castilla y León (Burgos 30 Aug [1333/34]-murdered Montiel 22 Mar 1369, bur Seville Cathedral). The Crónica del Rey Alfonso XI records the birth 31 Aug at Burgos of “un fijo varon...Don Pedro” to “la Reyna Doña Maria”, 1334 from the context although the text specifies 1333[1219]. He succeeded his father in 1350 as PEDRO I "el Cruel" King of Castile and León. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that “[el] Infante Don Pedro su fijo primero legitimo heredero, fijo de la Reyna Doña Maria su muger, fija del Rey Don Alfonso de Portugal” succeeded as king after the death of his father[1220]. His reign was marred by conflicts due to the bitter enmity he felt towards his half-brothers, the illegitimate sons of Leonor de Guzmán, and in particular Enrique de Trastámara, who rebelled against him. Pedro also incurred the enmity of France, who supported Enrique, as a result of his repudiation of his French wife. Pedro IV King of Aragon also supported Enrique de Trastámara, declaring war on Castile 8 Aug 1356, a conflict which continued until the Peace of Tener 13/14 May 1361. Enrique invaded Castile with French support in May 1363, capturing Valencia Apr 1364. A further invasion followed in March 1366. Enrique made rapid gains, reducing Pedro's area of control in Castile to Galicia, Cantabria and some areas adjacent to the border with Aragón. Pedro fled to Portugal with his daughters, but after joining English troops led by the Black Prince at Libourne in September 1366 he returned to defeat Enrique at Nájera 3 Apr 1367. Enrique's forces regrouped and invaded yet again end-1367, conquering León 15 Jan 1368. Pedro was weakened by loss of support from England, and Enrique finally defeated Pedro at Montiel in March 1369. Although Pedro escaped after the battle, he was killed soon after by Enrique's commander-in-chief Bertrand Du Guesclin. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that King Pedro died 23 Mar 1369 at Montiel[1221]. Betrothed (contract 2 Jan 1345) to JOAN of England, daughter of EDWARD III King of England & his wife Philippa de Hainaut (Woodstock Palace, Oxfordshire [Feb] [1333/35]-Loremo, Bordeaux of the Black Death 2 Sep 1348, bur Loremo or Bordeaux or Bayonne Cathedral). The marriage contract between “Alfonso...Castellæ Rege...consanguineo nostro...primogenitum dicti regis” and “Rex...Johannam filiam nostram” by charter dated 2 Jan 1345[1222]. King Edward III wrote a series of letters relating to the same betrothal dated 30 Aug 1345[1223]. King Edward III appointed proxies to ratify the marriage contract between “rege Castellæ...consanguineum nostrum primogenitum dicti regis” and “Johannam filiam nostram” by charter dated 17 Mar 1345 (O.S.)[1224]. A charter dated 1 Jan 1348 notified “Alfonso...Castellæ...Regi” of arrangements made for the journey of “Edwardus...[rex]...Johannam filiam nostram” to Gascony for her marriage to “primogenito vestro Petro”[1225]. A charter dated 15 Sep 1348 notified “Alfonso...Castellæ...Regi” of the death of “Johannam filiam nostris...Burdegalis”[1226]. Betrothed (contract 1 Jul 1345, contract terminated before 1348) to Infanta doña BLANCA de Navarra, daughter of FELIPE III “el Bueno” [d’Evreux] King of Navarre & his wife Juana II [de France] Queen of Navarre ([1331]-Château de Neaufles-Saint-Martin, Eure 5 Oct 1398, bur église de l'Abbaye royale de Saint-Denis). The dates of documents which relate to Pedro de Castilla´s betrothal to Joan of England suggest that his betrothal to Blanca de Navarra may have been an alternative, probably short-lived, agreement presumably arranged at a time when relations with England were not proceeding well and that it was soon terminated. m (contract 1351, by proxy Abbaye de Preuilly 9 Jul 1352 in person Valladolid 3 Jun 1353, purportedly divorced 1354) BLANCHE de Bourbon, daughter of PIERRE I Duc de Bourbon Comte de Clermont et de La Marche & his wife Isabelle de Valois (end 1339-poisoned Medina Sidonia [14 May/31 Jul] 1361). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the negotiations for the marriage of King Pedro and “[la fija] del...Duque de Borbon...Doña Blanca” in 1351, the king´s request for her to be sent to him in 1353, her arrival at Valladolid 25 Feb, preparations for their marriage (adding that Blanche was then 16 years old), and the marriage “en Sancta Maria la nueva de Valladolid” 3 Jun 1353[1227]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that King Pedro sent “la Reyna Doña Blanca de Borbon su muger” to Toledo and placed her “en el Alcazar de la dicha cibdad” in 1354, and in a later passage records that she was transferred to Siguenza in 1355[1228]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that King Pedro in 1354 declared that “él lo mostraria que con derecho se podia partir de la...Doña Blanca, é que non era su muger” in order to marry “Doña Juana de Castro...”, persuaded “los Obispos Don Sancho de Avila é Don Juan de Salamanca...con muy grande miedo” to proclaim that “el casamiento que el Rey ficiera con Doña Blanca de Borbon era ninguno”, and then married Juana “en la...villa de Cuellar” but left her “otro dia...é nunca vió jamas á la dicha Doña Juana de Castro”[1229]. Pope Innocent VI reprimanded the bishops and ordered the king to return to Blanche de Bourbon[1230]. She was murdered 8 years later on his orders: Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the death while a prisoner in Medina Sidonia in 1361 of “la Reyna Doña Blanca de Borbon”, poisoned on the orders of the king, aged 25[1231]. Mistress (1) (from 1352, supposedly married in secret at the time, made public 1362) MARÍA de Padilla, daughter of JUAN García de Padilla Señor de Villagera & his wife María González de Henestrosa (-Seville Jul 1361, bur Santa Clara de Escudillo, transferred 1362 to Seville Santa María). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that King Pedro “a Gijón” took “Doña Maria de Padilla...una doncella muy fermosa”, went “en casa de Doña Isabel de Meneses muger de Don Juan Alfonso de Alburquerque” and that “Juan Ferrandez de Henestrosa su tio, hermano de Doña Maria Gonzalez su madre” took her to “Sant Fagund”, in 1352[1232]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the death “en Sevilla de su dolencia” in Jul 1361 of “Doña Maria de Padilla” and her burial “al su Monasterio de Sancta Clara de Estudillo”[1233]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that, after her death, the king announced to “sus Cortes...en Sevilla” that he “se avia desposado por palabras de presente con Doña Maria de Padilla” in the presence of “Don Diego Garcia de Padilla Maestre de Calatrava hermano de la dicha Doña Maria...Juan Ferrandez de Henestrosa tio de la dicha Doña Maria...Juan Alfonso de Mayorga su Chanciller del sello de la poridad é su Escribano...Juan Pérez de Orduña Abad de Santander é su Capellan mayor”, all of whom swore to the truth of the king´s assertion, and that this had taken place before he married Blanche de Bourbon who had therefore never been his lawful wife[1234]. With today´s hindsight, the king´s declaration does not appear credible, supported as it was by two close relatives of María and by two advisers of the king who would have feared for their lives in case of disobedience. Two other points also seem relevant. Firstly, the king waited until after the deaths of both María herself and Blanche de Bourbon, who would have known the truth of the situation, before making his declaration. Secondly, the issue was never raised at the time of the king´s purported marriage to Juana de Castro in 1354 (see below), when he was only concerned about divorcing Blanche de Bourbon. Nevertheless, after the death of King Pedro, there must have been sufficient indications about the legitimacy of his children by María for the two English princes to have married her two surviving daughters, and for King Enrique III of Castile to have later married the sole heiress of the older daughter in order to close the chapter of the English challenge to his rule. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that, after this announcement the body of María de Padilla was transferred to “Sevilla...en la capilla de los Reyes...en la Iglesia de Sancta Maria”[1235]. Mistress (2) ([1354]) JUANA de Castro, daughter of PEDRO Fernández de Castro “él de la Guerra”, Señor de Lemos, Monforte y Sarria & his second wife Isabel Ponce de León (-Galicia 21 Aug 1374). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that King Pedro in 1354 declared that “él lo mostraria que con derecho se podia partir de la...Doña Blanca, é que non era su muger” in order to marry “Doña Juana de Castro fija de Don Pedro de Castro que decian de la Guerra...muger que fuera de Don Diego de Haro fijo de Don Lope de Haro é nieto de Don Diego Señor de Vizcaya...”, persuaded “los Obispos Don Sancho de Avila é Don Juan de Salamanca...con muy grande miedo” to proclaim that “el casamiento que el Rey ficiera con Doña Blanca de Borbon era ninguno”, and then married Juana “en la...villa de Cuellar” but left her “otro dia...é nunca vió jamas á la dicha Doña Juana de Castro”[1236]. Pope Innocent VI reprimanded the bishops and ordered the king to return to Blanche de Bourbon[1237]. The testament of “Don Pedro...Rey de Castilla, de Leon...”, dated 18 Nov 1362, names his three daughters by María de Padilla as his heirs, and in default “Don Juan mi fijo é de Doña Juana de Castro”[1238]. Mistress (3): MARÍA de Henestrosa, daughter of JUAN Fernández de Henestrosa & his wife ---. Florez refers to (without a precise citation reference) a document in the archives of the Duques de Medina Sidonia, dated 1361, which names “D. Fernando fijo de nuestro Señor el Rey y de Doña Maria de Hinestrosa su madre”[1239]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that the king took “Doña Maria González de Henestrosa, muger de Garci-Laso Carrillo hermano [de]...Gomez Carrillo”, dated to 1359 from the context[1240]. It is not known whether this passage refers to the same person. Mistress (4): TERESA de Ayala, daughter of DIEGO Gómez de Ayala Señor de Casarrubios & his wife Inés de Ayala (-31 Aug 1424). Florez records a donation made to Santo Domingo el Real by “Doña Ines de Ayala” which names “Maria mi nieta fija del Rey D. Pedro...de mi fija Doña Teresa, Priora...de las Sorores de Santo Domingo el Real”, dated 15 Jun 1395[1241]. Prioress of Santo Domingo el Real. An epitaph in Santo Domingo el Real records the death 31 Aug 1424 of “Doña Teresa de Ayala, Priora deste Monasterio, hija de D. Diego Gomez de Ayala, Alcalde Mayor de Toledo, y de Doña Ines de Ayala”[1242]. Mistress (5): ALDONZA Coronel, wife of ÁLVARO Pérez de Guzmán Señor de Olvera, daughter of ALFONSO Fernández Coronel Señor de Aguilar & his wife Elvira de Biedma. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that “Don Juan de la Cerda fijo de Don Luis é Don Alvar Perez de Guzman Señor de Olvera” defected from King Pedro I in 1357 and went to Andalucía, triggered because the king wished to take “la muger de Don Alvar Perez, que era Doña Aldonza Coronel fija de Don Alfonso Ferrandez Coronel, hermana que era de Doña Maria Coronel muger del dicho Don Juan de Cerda”[1243]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that in 1358 King Pedro captured “Doña Aldonza Coronel...” from “[el] Monasterio de Sancta Clara” in Seville, adding that they had met when she had sought a royal pardon for her husband during a truce in the war between Castile and Aragon, and placed her “en la Torre del Oro, que es en la tarazana”[1244]. Mistress (6): ([1362]) ISABEL de Sandoval, daughter of ---. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the birth in Sep 1363 “en Alamazan” of “un fijo de una dueña que tenia que decian Doña Isabel...Don Sancho”, adding that the king wished the child to be his heir and that he would marry the child´s mother[1245]. King Pedro I had four illegitimate children by Mistress (1), declared legitimate and granted the title infante/infanta after the king´s declaration of his marriage to María de Padilla in 1362. There appears little reason to doubt the illegitimacy of these children, given the lack of credibility attached to the king´s declaration, as discussed above. a) [Infanta] doña BEATRIZ de Castilla y León (Cordoba 1353-Tordesillas 1369). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the birth in “la cibdad de Cordoba” in 1353 of “Doña Beatriz su fija, la qual ovo en Doña Maria de Padilla”, adding that her father granted her “los castillos de Montalvan, é Capilla, é Buguillos, é el lugar de Mondejar, é Yuncos, que fueran de Don Alfonso Ferrandez Coronel”[1246]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that, after the death of their brother Alfonso, the right of the king´s three daughters “para heredar los Regnos de Castilla é de Leon, cada una en sucesion de la otra” was recognised in early 1363[1247]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the Aragonese proposal in 1363 for the marriage of “la Infanta Doña Beatriz fija del Rey Don Pedro é de Doña Maria de Padilla” and “el Infante Don Juan fijo primogénito del Rey de Aragon...Duque de Girona”, rejected by King Pedro[1248]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the betrothal in 1366 of “la Infanta Doña Beatriz” and “el Infante Don Ferrando fijo del Rey Don Pedro de Portogal”[1249]. Nun at the Abbey of Santa Clara at Tordesillas. Betrothed (1366) to Infante dom FERNANDO de Portugal, son of PEDRO I "o Justiceiro" King of Portugal & his second wife Constanza Manuel (Santarem 31 Oct 1345-Lisbon 29 Oct 1383, bur Santarem São Francisco). He succeeded his father in 1367 as Fernando I King of Portugal. b) [Infanta] doña CONSTANZA de Castilla y León (Castrojeriz [Jun/Jul] 1354-Leicester Castle 24 Mar 1394, bur Newark Abbey, Leicester). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that the king heard news in Jul 1354 of the birth of “una fija de Doña Maria de Padilla...Doña Constanza” in “la villa de Castro Xeriz”, adding that she later married “el Duque de Alencastre” and that their daughter “la Reyna Doña Catalina...es agora muger del Rey Don Enrique”[1250]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that, after the death of their brother Alfonso, the right of the king´s three daughters “para heredar los Regnos de Castilla é de Leon, cada una en sucesion de la otra” was recognised in early 1363[1251]. A late 15th century/early 16th century manuscript records that “Johannes Gaunt Dux Lancastrie et quartus filius Edward III” married secondly “Constanciam filiam regis Hispaniarum”[1252]. She succeeded her father in 1369 as de iure Queen of Castile. m (Roquefort, Guyenne 21 Sep 1371) as his second wife, JOHN of Gaunt Duke of Lancaster, son of EDWARD III King of England & his wife Philippa de Hainaut (St Bavon’s Abbey, Ghent [Feb/Mar] 1340-[Leicester Castle or Ely Place, Holborn, London] 3/4 Feb 1399, bur Old St Paul’s Cathedral, London). He claimed the throne of Castile by right of his wife. c) [Infanta] doña ISABEL de Castilla y León (Tordesillas 1355-23 Dec 1292, bur 14 Jan 1393 King’s Langley, Hertfordshire, Church of the Dominican Friars). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the birth “en Oterdesillas” in 1355 of “una fija de Doña Maria de Padilla...Doña Isabel, que casó despues con Mosen Aymon fijo del Rey Eduarte de Inglaterra...despues Duque de Yort”[1253]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that, after the death of their brother Alfonso, the right of the king´s three daughters “para heredar los Regnos de Castilla é de Leon, cada una en sucesion de la otra” was recognised in early 1363[1254]. A late 15th century/early 16th century manuscript records that “Edmundo Langley duci Ebor fratri...Johannis ducis Lancastrie” married “Henricus rex Hispaniarum...tertia filia”[1255]. The will of "Isabel Duchess of York, Countess of Cambridge", proved 6 Jan 1392, bequeathed property to “the King...the Duke of Lancaster...Edward Earl of Rutland my son...Constance le Despencer my daughter...the duchess of Gloucester...Richard my son”[1256]. m ([Hertford Castle] [1 Jan/30 Apr] 1372) EDMUND of Langley Duke of York, son of EDWARD III King of England & his wife Philippa de Hainaut (Abbot’s Langley, Hertfordshire 5 Jun 1341-King’s Langley, Hertfordshire 1 Aug 1402, bur King’s Langley, Church of the Mendicant Friars). d) [Infante] don ALFONSO de Castilla y León (Tordesillas 1359-[Seville] 19 Oct 1362). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the birth “á Oterdesillas” in 1359 of “un fijo...Don Alfonso” to the king and “Doña Maria de Padilla”[1257]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that, after the king´s announcement in 1362 about his marriage to María de Padilla, “Don Alfonso su fijo” was declared “Infante heredero”[1258]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the death 18 Oct 1362 of “Infante Don Alfonso” a few days after the king arrived in Seville (although the passage does not state explicitly that Alfonso died in Seville)[1259]. King Pedro I had one illegitimate child by Mistress (2): e) [Infante] don JUAN de Castilla ([Jan] 1355-Soria 1405, bur Soria San Pedro, transferred to Madrid Santo Domingo el Real).

King Alfonso XI had ten illegitimate children by Mistress (1) (the dates of birth of these children must be considered approximate, as the Crónica del Rey Alfonso XI in which their births are recorded appears to be about two years early in its dating of all events): 3.

Du Guesclin murdered Pedro I soon after, and Enrique proclaimed himself as ENRIQUE II "él de las Mercedes" King of Castile and León at Calahorra. Crowned at Las Huelgas. He restored order to the country, was magnanimous to his opponents, and carried out numerous reforms. He distributed lands to his supporters, laying the foundation for the development of the Spanish nobility. - see Chapter 5. KINGS of CASTILE & LEÓN (TRASTÁMARA). 6. FADRIQUE Alfonso (Seville 13 Jan [1334]-murdered Alcázar de Sevilla 29 May 1358).

The Crónica del Rey Alfonso XI records the birth of “otro fijo al Rey de Doña Leonor...Don Ferrando”, the text specifying 1333, but the birth must have been in 1335 or 1336 for consistency with the other family births[1289]. Señor de Ledesma: “...D. Fernando, fijo del Rey, y señor de Ledesma...” subscribed the charter dated 27 Jan 1343 under which King Alfonso XI confirmed the privileges of the convent of San Augustin de Dueñas[1290]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I names “Don Ferrando Señor de Ledesma...Don Tello Señor de Aguilar...despues...Señor de Lara é de Vizcaya...Don Sancho...despues Conde de Alburquerque...Don Juan...Don Pedro” as sons of King Alfonso XI and “Doña Leonor de Guzman”, implying that they all survived their father as the same passage names the two sons who died as children[1291]. Señor de Ledesma: The Crónica del Rey Alfonso XI records that “Don Sancho” was “sin entendimiento” and that the king therefore removed from him “el señorío de Ledesma” which he granted to his brother “Don Fernando su fijo”[1292]. Betrothed ([1350/51]) to MARÍA Pérez Ponce de León, daughter of PEDRO Ponce de León & his wife Beatriz de Ejérica. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that “Don Ferrando Señor de Ledesma, hermano del Conde Don Enrique” was betrothed to “una fija de Don Pero Ponce...Doña Maria Ponce” at Marchena, but that the marriage did not take place because Fernando died “á poco tiempo”[1293]. 8. TELLO Alfonso (Mérida [1337]-Cuenca de Campos 15 Oct 1370, bur San Francisco de Palencia). The Crónica del Rey Alfonso XI records the birth at Mérida of “un fijo... de Doña Leonor...Don Tello”, the correct year of which is difficult to determine from the text[1294]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I names “Don Ferrando Señor de Ledesma...Don Tello Señor de Aguilar...despues...Señor de Lara é de Vizcaya...Don Sancho...despues Conde de Alburquerque...Don Juan...Don Pedro” as sons of King Alfonso XI and “Doña Leonor de Guzman”[1295].

Tello, in his testament dated 11 Sep 1370, bequeathed Vizcaya and Valmaseda to his brother King Enrique II[1298]. m (Betrothed before Mar 1350, Segovia Aug 1353) JUANA Núñez de Lara Señora de Lara Señora de Vizcaya, daughter of JUAN Núñez de Lara [de la Cerda-Castilla] & his wife María Díaz de Haro [Castilla] Señora de Vizcaya ([1333]-murdered Castillo de Castrojeriz [Mar/Apr] 1359). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the marriage in Segovia in 1353 of “Don Tello” and “Doña Juana de Lara Señora de Vizcaya, fija de Don Juan Nuñez de Lara é de Doña Maria su muger”, to whom he had been betrothed during the lifetime of his father King Alfonso XI, adding that he thereby inherited “el Señorío de Vizcaya”[1299]. Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II records in 1373 the claim made by “Doña Maria de Lara fija de Don Ferrando de la Cerda” to “las tierras de Lara é de Vizcaya”, which names “Don Nuño...Doña Juana...Doña Isabel” as the children of “Don Juan Nuñez de Lara Señor de Vizcaya” and his wife “Doña Maria”, all of whom died childless, adding that Juana married “el Conde Don Tello”[1300]. Tello had one illegitimate child by an unknown mistress: a) JUAN Téllez de Castilla (-killed in battle Aljubarrota 14 Aug 1385). After his father's titles reverted to the crown on his death, he was created Señor de Aguilar de Campo by his uncle King Enrique II.

Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I names “Doña Juana que casó con Don Ferrando de Castro” as the daughter of King Alfonso XI and “Doña Leonor de Guzman”, and in a later passage records the couple´s marriage in 1354[1306]. The chronology of the family suggests that Juana was probably born after her brother Tello and before her brother Juan. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that “el Conde Don Enrique” killed “Pero Carrillo, un Caballero de Castilla” in Aragon 1364 for saying that he “avia fama con Doña Juana su hermana del Conde, muger que fuera de Don Ferrando de Castro”[1307]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that “Doña Juana su hermana del Conde [Enrique], muger que fuera de Don Ferrando de Castro” later married “un Rico ome de Aragon...Don Felipe de Castro”[1308]. The primary source which confirms her second marriage has not yet been identified. m firstly (Toro 1354, divorced) as his first wife, FERNANDO Ruiz de Castro Señor de Lemos y Sarría, son of PEDRO Fernández de Castro & his second wife Isabel Ponce de León ([1338]-Bayonne [May/Jun] 1375). m secondly TAMARIT de Listera, son of ---. m thirdly (1366) FELIPE de Castro Señor de Castro y Peralta, son of FELIPE de Castro [Aragón] Señor de Castro y Peralta & his wife Francisca Alemany Señora de Guimera (-hanged 1371). 10.

Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I names “Don Ferrando Señor de Ledesma...Don Tello Señor de Aguilar...despues...Señor de Lara é de Vizcaya...Don Sancho...despues Conde de Alburquerque...Don Juan...Don Pedro” as sons of King Alfonso XI and “Doña Leonor de Guzman”, implying that they all survived their father as the same passage names the two sons who died as children[1309]. Señor de Badajoz y Jérez: “...D. Juan, fijo del Rey, y señor de Xerez é Badájoz...” subscribed the charter dated 27 Jan 1343 under which King Alfonso XI confirmed the privileges of the convent of San Augustin de Dueñas[1310]. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the killing “en Carmona” of “Don Juan é á Don Pedro sus hermanos del Rey, fijos del Rey Don Alfonso é de Doña Leonor de Guzman” by “un Ballestero de maza del Rey...Garci Diaz de Albarracin” in 1359, adding that Juan was 19 years old[1311]. 11. SANCHO Alfonso (1342-Burgos 19 Feb 1374). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I names “Don Ferrando Señor de Ledesma...Don Tello Señor de Aguilar...despues...Señor de Lara é de Vizcaya...Don Sancho...despues Conde de Alburquerque...Don Juan...Don Pedro” as sons of King Alfonso XI and “Doña Leonor de Guzman”, implying that they all survived their father as the same passage names the two sons who died as children[1312]. Created Conde de Alburquerque, Señor de Ledesma, Alba de Liste, Medellín, Tiedra y Montalbán by his brother April 1366. He succeeded his brother Tello as Alférez mayor 1370, until 15 Sep 1371. His marriage was arranged as part of the peace treaty signed between his older brother Enrique II and Fernando I King of Portugal at Santarem in March 1373. Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II records that “el Conde Don Sancho su hermano...Conde de Alburquerque” was killed 19 Mar 1374 in Burgos “la Infanta Doña Leonor fija del Rey Don Enrique”[1313]. m ([Mar] 1373) Infanta dona BRITES de Portugal, daughter of PEDRO I King of Portugal & his third wife Inés de Castro (1347-Ledesma 5 Aug 1381). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I names “[el] Infante Don Juan, é [el] Infante Don Donis, é...la Infanta Doña Beatriz” as the children of “el...Rey Don Pedro de Portugal” by “Doña Ines de Castro”, adding that Brites married “el Conde Don Sancho hermano del Rey Don Enrique de Castilla”[1314]. Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II records the agreement in 1373 for the marriage of “el Conde Don Sancho, hermano del Rey Don Enrique” and “la Infanta Doña Beatriz hermana del Rey de Portugal...fija del Rey Don Pedro de Portugal é de Doña Ines de Castro”, as part of peace arrangements between Castile and Portugal brokered by “Don Guido Cardenal de Boloña Legado del Papa”[1315]. Sancho & his wife had one child: a) LEONOR URRACA de Castilla "la Ricahembra" (Sep 1374-Medina del Campo 1435). Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II records the birth in Sep 1374 of “una fija...Doña Leonor que es agora muger del Infante Don Ferrando” after the death of her father[1316]. She succeeded her father in 1374 as Condesa de Alburquerque. Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique III records that, after the death of King Juan I, it was said that “Don Fadrique Duque de Benavente” had requested marriage with “Doña Leonor Condesa de Alburquerque, fija del Conde Don Sancho hermano del Rey Don Enrique...la Señora mejor heredada que se fallaba en España” (listing all her lands), but that this would have endangered the interests of the new king Enrique III, so her betrothal was arranged with “el Infante Don Ferrando hermano del Rey” by “el Arzobispo de Toledo é los Maestres de Santiago é de Calatrava”, and records in a later passage the couple´s marriage in 1395[1317]. Alfonso V King of Aragon notified “l’infant don Pedro d’Aragó e de Sicilia, duch de Notho...nostre...frare” of the death “de nostra...mare” by charter dated 26 Feb 1436[1318]. [Betrothed to her cousin FADRIQUE de Castilla Duque de Benavente, illegitimate son of ENRIQUE II King of Castile and León & his mistress Beatriz Ponce de León (-Almodovar del Río 1394).] m (Betrothed 1390, Valladolid 1395) Infante don FERNANDO de Castilla y León Duque de Peñafiel, son of JUAN I King of Castile & his wife Infanta doña Leonor de Aragón (Medina del Campo 27 Nov 1380-Igualada, near Barcelona 22 Apr 1416).

"él de Antequera" Sancho had two illegitimate children by unknown mistresses: b) FERNANDO de Castilla (-killed in battle Aljubarrota 15 Aug 1385). Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I names “...Don Ferrando fijo del Conde Don Sancho...” among those killed in 1385 at the battle of Aljubarrota”[1319]. It is likely that Fernando was illegitimate. There is little time for the birth of two children to his father from his marriage, and in any case, if legitimate, Fernando would have been hardly more than 11 years old at the time of the battle in which he was killed, which appears unlikely. c) LEONOR de Castilla (before 1373-Toro). Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique III records the proposal in 1392 for “Don Fadrique...Duque de Benavente” to marry “Doña Leonor fija del Conde Don Sancho” after her husband “Dia Sanchez de Rojas” died[1320]. m firstly SANCHO de Rojas Señor de Monzón, son of --- (-[1392]). m secondly ([1393/94]) FADRIQUE de Castilla Duque de Benavente, illegitimate son of ENRIQUE II King of Castile and León & his mistress Beatriz Ponce de León (-Almodovar del Río 1394). 12.

Señor de Aguilar. Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the killing “en Carmona” of “Don Juan é á Don Pedro sus hermanos del Rey, fijos del Rey Don Alfonso é de Doña Leonor de Guzman” by “un Ballestero de maza del Rey...Garci Diaz de Albarracin” in 1359, adding that Pedro was 14 years old[1322].

The testament of "Beatrice Vedova del Re Berengario Conte di Provenza" dated 14 Jan 1264 makes bequests "…a Contesson…più ad Eleonora altra sua figlia…" and orders "Contesson figlia del fu Conte Amedeo, non si maritasse…" to fulfil religious bequests[1331]. The following reference shows that Beatrix was known as "Contesson".

Matthew of Paris records the birth of King Louis's daughter in Palestine but does not name her[1392]. The chronology of the family suggests that this daughter must have been Blanche, but this is not beyond all doubt.

ALFONSO de la Cerda de Castilla, son of Infante don FERNANDO "él de la Cerda" de Castilla y León & his wife Blanche de France (Valladolid 1270-after 15 Apr 1327). The Anales Toledanos record the birth in 1270 of “Dñs Alfonsus primogenitus Dñi Fernandi et Dñæ Al--- soror is filii Regis Francorum apud Valleoletum”[1411]. The Gesta Philippi Tertia Francorum Regis of Guillaume de Nangis names "Alphonsum et Ferrandum" as the two sons of "Ferrandus regis Castellæ primogenitus" and his wife, adding that "avi sui Alphonsi regis" deprived them of their rights of succession[1412]. After his father’s death, he and his newborn brother were taken to Aragon by their grandmother Queen Violante, and brought up in the fortress of Játiva where they remained virtual prisoners of Pedro III King of Aragon. His grandfather King Alfonso X nominated him as his successor, but he was excluded from the succession 1284 because of his young age. The Chronicle of Ramon Muntaner records that Alfonso III King of Aragon freed "don Alphonse et don Ferdinand, fils de l´infant Ferdinand de Castille" from the castle of Játiva, dated to 1285[1413]. King Alfonso had him proclaimed King of Castile and León at Jaca, but after his death his successor King Jaime II withdrew his support and made peace with Sancho IV King of Castile. The succession was finally settled at Torrellas 8 Aug 1304 between the kings of Aragon and Portugal, who decided that Alfonso should renounce all his rights in return for being created Señor de Alba, Bejar y Gibraleón. The Chronicon Domini Joannis Emmanuelis records the meeting in Aug 1304 of the kings of Castile, Aragon and Portugal “in Agreda, et in Taraçona” where they sent away “Dns Alfonsus, filius Infantis Dni Fernandi”[1414].

The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos records that "D. Alonso Guedella" married "D. Mafalda"[1416]. Salazar y Castro asserts that she was "Mathilde de Narbonne señora de Lunel, daughter of Aimeric [VI] Vicomte de Narbonne and his wife Sibylle de Foix[1417]. This is presumably based on Zurita´s Anales de la Corona de Aragón, written [1562/80], which record that "don Alonso hijo del Infante don Fernando" married "en Francia…Mofalda…quanto yo congeturo fue de la casa de los Vizcondes de Narbona, y con ella huvo el señorio de Lunel"[1418]. Masnata relates that the seigneurie de Lunel passed to the French crown on the death in 1295 of Rousselin last seigneur de Lunel, concluding therefore that Alfonso de la Cerda could not have inherited the seigneurie through his wife (it was granted by Charles IV King of France to Alfonso´s son, Alfonso, see below)[1419]. Masnata found no basis for the supposed origin of Mathilde in Narbonne, and suggests that she was Mathilde de Brienne-Eu, daughter of Jean de Brienne Comte d'Eu & his wife Beatrix de Châtillon-sur-Marne-Saint-Pol. He reached this conclusion by process of elimination of other possible candidates connected with the French royal family, and after remarking that Jean de Brienne is reported, in early secondary sources, to have had a daughter named Mathilde whose marriage is not otherwise recorded[1420]. Masnata commented that the chronology is correct and the onomastics favourable, as the name Juan passed into the Cerda family after this marriage[1421]. He also quoted the Continuator of the Chronique de Jean de Saint-Victor which names "filz au roy d´Espagne et…une dame de Normandie" as the parents of "monseigneur Aufour" (which refers to Alphonse de la Cerda, son of Alfonso and his wife Mathilde)[1422]. It should nevertheless be emphasised that Masnata has not identified a primary source which confirms that his hypothesis is correct. She was Infante don Alfonso's mistress from [1288/89]. Alfonso & his wife had [eight] children: 1. ALPHONSE de la Cerda dit d'Espagne (in France [1289][1423]-Gentilly, near Paris 15 Apr 1327). The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D.

On his marriage, he was given the towns of Tafalla, Capparoso and Uxue. Governor (Lieutenant du Roi) in Languedoc Autumn 1326. The testament of “Alfonsus de Ispania dominus de Lunello miles”, dated 15 Apr 1327, chose burial “in ecclesia Fratrum Predicatorum Parisiensium”, bequeathed revenue from “terre mee...in Navarra” to “genitor meus” until “Karolus filius meus” reached 16 years of age, with the consent of “Isabellis...consortis mee”, and bequeathed property to “Henrico archidiacono fratri meo”[1425].

He led a long and bitter rebellion against his half-brother, King Pedro I, who had murdered his mother. Defeated at Toledo 1355 following his first revolt, he fled to France. A further defeat in 1360 was followed by a second period of exile. He invaded Castile once more in March 1366, supported by French troops led by Bertrand Du Guesclin. After conquering Burgos, he proclaimed himself King of Castile 5 Apr 1366 at the monastery of Huelgas: Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that “el Conde Don Enrique” declared himself king “en Calahorra” in 1366[1486]. He entered Toledo early May, and Seville in June 1366. King Enrique II donated property to Segovia, for the souls of his parents and “del dicho Don Pedro mio fijo” and for the salvacion of “de la Reyna Doña Juana mi muger, é de los Infantes Don Juan é Doña Leonor é Doña Juana mios fijos é suyos de la dicha Reyna Doña Juana mi muger”, by charter dated 26 Jan 1367[1487]. Pedro I fled to Portugal in early 1366, but returned to defeat Enrique at Nájera in April 1367 with support from English troops. From his exile in France, Enrique gained support from the Papacy, regrouped with the army of the Comte de Foix, and invaded again, conquering León 15 Jan 1368. After confirming his longstanding alliance with France at Toledo in November 1368, he finally defeated Pedro at Montiel in March 1369. Following Pedro's murder, Enrique proclaimed himself as ENRIQUE II "él de las Mercedes" King of Castile and León at Calahorra. Crowned at Las Huelgas. Dom Fernando I King of Portugal, with the support of Pedro IV King of Aragon, challenged Enrique, claiming to be the legitimate heir of Castile. The Portuguese blockaded the Guadalquivir river, but Enrique's forces defeated them at Sanlúcar de Barrameda in August 1370, ending the threat of a joint Portuguese/Aragonese invasion of Castile. Fernando renounced his claim under the Peace of Alcoutim signed March 1371. Strained relations with Portugal continued, Enrique invading Portugal end-1372 and entering Lisbon February 1373. He forced Fernando to agree to expel the supporters of his predecessor, confirmed by the Peace of Santarem signed in March 1373, as well as by his brother Sancho's marriage to Fernando's half-sister. Relations with Aragon were also tense throughout Enrique's reign, with Pedro IV continuing to claim the Kingdom of Murcia which he had agreed to return to Castile under the Treaty of Binéfar in 1363. Hostilities were successively suspended by peace treaties signed at Alcañiz in 1371, at Almazán 12 Apr 1375 (sealed by the marriage of Pedro's daughter with Enrique's son) and at Briones 31 Mar 1379. During his reign, Enrique II restored order to Castile, was magnanimous to his opponents, and carried out numerous reforms. He distributed lands to his supporters, laying the foundation for the development of the Spanish nobility. Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II records the death 29 May 1379, aged 46 years and 5 months, of “El Rey Don Enrique” at “Sancto Domingo” and his burial at Burgos “en el cabildo de Sancta Maria en la capilla...de Sancta Catalina”[1488]. The testament of “Don Enrique...Rey de Castilla, de Leon, de Toledo, de Galicia, de Sevilla, de Cordoba, de Murcia, de Jaén, del Algarbe, de Algecira, é Señor de Molina”, dated at Burgos 29 May 1374, requested his burial “en la Iglesia de Sancta Maria de Toledo”, bequeathed property to “la Reyna Doña Juana mi muger...Don Alonso mi fijo...Don Fadrique mi fijo...(appointing “Doña Beatriz su madre” as his guardian until he was 14 years old)...Doña Leonor mi fija (in case her marriage with “Don Alfonso fijo del Marques de Villena”, to whom she is betrothed, does not take place)...Doña Juana mi fija (in case her marriage with “Don Pedro fijo del Marques de Villena”, to whom she is betrothed, does not take place)...Doña Costanza mi fija (assuming the contract for her to marry “el Infante Don Dionis” is finalised)...Don Hernando mi fijo...Doña Maria mi fija...Doña Elvira Iñiguez madre de los dichos Don Alonso é Doña Juana mis fijos...Beatriz Ferrandez madre de la dicha Doña Maria mi fija...Leonor Alvarez madre de la dicha Doña Leonor mi fija...el Infante Don Juan mi fijo...la Infanta mi fija...al Infante Don Carlos de Navarra...desposada...otros de nuestros fijos é fijas que avemos avido”, especially remembered “Doña Juana de Castro...Men Rodriguez de Benavides...Doña Maria fija de Don Alonso Fernandez Coronel, muger que fué de Don Juan”, and transferred “las villas de Tordehumos é Medina de Rioseco” which belonged to “Doña Leonor de Castro nuestra sobrina, fija de Doña Juana nuestra hermana” to “Don Fadrique mi fijo”[1489]. m (27 Jul 1350) JUANA Manuel de Castilla, daughter of JUAN Manuel de Castilla Señor de Villena, Peñafiel y Escalona & his third wife Blanca de la Cerda (1339-Salamanca 27 Mar 1381, bur Toledo Santa María). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records that “el Conde Don Enrique” was already betrothed to “Doña Juana fija de Don Juan Manuel” when he started visiting his mother in prison in Seville (dated to [Jun/Jul] 1350 and that she advised him to marry her immediately as she had heard from Juana´s brother “Don Ferrando Señor de Villena” that King Pedro planned to terminate the betrothal and marry her either to “el Rey Don Pedro” himself or to “el Infante Don Ferrando de Aragon, primo del Rey”[1490]. She succeeded her niece in 1361 as Señora de Villena, Escalona y Peñafiel. King Enrique II donated property to Segovia, for the souls of his parents and “del dicho Don Pedro mio fijo” and for the salvacion of “de la Reyna Doña Juana mi muger, é de los Infantes Don Juan é Doña Leonor é Doña Juana mios fijos é suyos de la dicha Reyna Doña Juana mi muger”, by charter dated 26 Jan 1367[1491].

Sousa states that “Doña Juana hija del Rey Don Enrique...habida en Doña Juana de Cifuentes dama Aragonesa” married “el Infante Don Dionis de Portugal que tomó el título de Rey”[1493]. Mistress (2): ELVIRA Íñiguez de Vega, daughter of SUERO Fernández de Vega Señor de Villalobos & his wife ---. The testament of “Don Enrique...Rey de Castilla, de Leon, de Toledo, de Galicia, de Sevilla, de Cordoba, de Murcia, de Jaén, del Algarbe, de Algecira, é Señor de Molina”, dated at Burgos 29 May 1374, bequeathed property to “...Don Alonso mi fijo...Doña Juana mi fija (in case her marriage with “Don Pedro fijo del Marques de Villena”, to whom she is betrothed, does not take place)...Doña Elvira Iñiguez madre de los dichos Don Alonso é Doña Juana mis fijos...”[1494]. Mistress (3): ---. The name of the mother of the king´s daughter Costanza is not known. It is unlikely that she was Elvira Iñíguez de Vega, who is named in the king´s testament as mother only of his children Alfonso and Juana. Mistress (4): BEATRIZ Ponce de León, daughter of PEDRO Ponce de León Señor de Marchena & his wife Beatriz de Aragón-Ejérica (-after 29 May 1374). Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II names “Doña Beatriz Ponce” as mother of the king´s son “el Duque de Benavente Don Fadrique”[1495]. The testament of “Don Enrique...Rey de Castilla...”, dated at Burgos 29 May 1374, bequeathed property to “...Don Fadrique mi fijo...(appointing “Doña Beatriz su madre” as his guardian until he was 14 years old)...”[1496]. Mistress (5): BEATRIZ Fernández, daughter of --- (-after 29 May 1374). The testament of “Don Enrique...Rey de Castilla...”, dated at Burgos 29 May 1374, bequeathed property to “...Doña Maria mi fija...Beatriz Ferrandez madre de la dicha Doña Maria mi fija...”[1497]. Mistress (6): LEONOR Álvarez, daughter of --- (-after 29 May 1374).

King Enrique II & his wife had four children: 1. Infante don JUAN de Castilla y León (Epila 24 Aug 1358-Alcalá de Henares 9 Oct 1390, bur Toledo Cathedral). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I records the birth “en la villa de Epila” in 1358 of “al Conde Don Enrique un fijo...Don Juan...”[1499]. Señor de Vizcaya y Lara by grant of his father in 1370. Alférez mayor for his father 1371. He succeeded his father 1379 as JUAN I King of Castile and León, crowned at Las Huelgas 25 Jul 1379. - see below. 2. Infante don PEDRO de Castilla y León ([1359/65]-1366, bur Segovia). King Enrique II donated property to Segovia, for the souls of his parents and “del dicho Don Pedro mio fijo” and for the salvacion of “de la Reyna Doña Juana mi muger, é de los Infantes Don Juan é Doña Leonor é Doña Juana mios fijos é suyos de la dicha Reyna Doña Juana mi muger”, by charter dated 26 Jan 1367[1500]. The naming of Pedro in this document, which otherwise only names the king´s legitimate children, suggests that Pedro was probably also legitimate. An epitaph in Segovia records the burial in 1366 of “Infante Don Pedro, fijo del...Rey Don Enrique II”[1501]. Florez says that Pedro could not have been the son of Juana Manuel, whose itinerary he traces to Aragon in 1366, suggesting that he would not therefore have been buried in Segovia[1502]. He explains the reference to “Infante” in the epitaph by suggesting that the monument must have been placed long after Pedro´s death. However, this is an unsatisfactory explanation in light of the 26 Jan 1367 charter quoted above and there seems no reason to exclude the possibility that Pedro´s body was transferred to Segovia at a later dated after his father proclaimed himself king. 3. Infanta doña LEONOR de Castilla y León ([1363]-Olite 27 Feb 1415 or Pamplona 5 Mar 1416, bur Pamplona, Cathedral of Santa María la Real). Ayala´s Crónica de Pedro I names “el Infante Don Juan, é la Infanta Doña Leonor” as the children of “el Conde Don Enrique” and his wife “la Reyna Doña Juana...fija de Don Juan fijo del Infante Don Manuel”[1503]. King Enrique II donated property to Segovia, for the souls of his parents and “del dicho Don Pedro mio fijo” and for the salvacion of “de la Reyna Doña Juana mi muger, é de los Infantes Don Juan é Doña Leonor é Doña Juana mios fijos é suyos de la dicha Reyna Doña Juana mi muger”, by charter dated 26 Jan 1367[1504]. Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II records the betrothal proposal in 1371, as part of the peace agreement with Portugal, of “el Rey Don Ferrando de Portugal” and “la Infanta Doña Leonor fija del Rey Don Enrique”, but the refusal by the Portuguese king because he was already married[1505]. Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II records the betrothal in 1373 of “el Infante Don Carlos fijo primogénito del Rey de Navarra” and “la Infanta Doña Leonor fija del Rey Don Enrique” at Burgos, and in a later passage their marriage in Soria in May 1375[1506]. The testament of “Don Enrique...Rey de Castilla...”, dated at Burgos 29 May 1374, bequeathed property to “la Reyna Doña Juana mi muger... el Infante Don Juan mi fijo...la Infanta mi fija...al Infante Don Carlos de Navarra...desposada...”[1507].

She opposed her nephew Enrique III King of Castile, forming the League of Lillo together with her half-brother Fadrique de Castilla Duque de Benevente and cousin Pedro de Castilla Conde de Trastámara. King Enrique besieged her in her castle at Roa [mid-1394] and obliged her to return to her husband in February 1395. m (contract Burgos 1373, Soria 27 May 1375) Infante don CARLOS de Navarra, son of CARLOS II "el Malo" King of Navarre & his wife Jeanne de France (Mantes, Yvelines 1361-Olite 8 Sep 1425, bur 10 Mar 1509 Pamplona, Cathedral of Santa María la Real).

Juana presumably died before the testament of her father dated 29 May 1374 in which she is not named. King Enrique II had one illegitimate child by Mistress (1): 5. JUANA de Castilla (-bur Guadalupe). Sousa states that “Doña Juana hija del Rey Don Enrique...habida en Doña Juana de Cifuentes dama Aragonesa” married “el Infante Don Dionis de Portugal que tomó el título de Rey”, adding that the couple were buried “en Guadalupe”[1509]. m ([1376]) Infante dom DINIZ de Portugal, Senhor de Villar-Dompardo, Duque de Cifuentes y Escalona, son of PEDRO I "el Cruel" King of Portugal & his third wife Inés de Castro ([1354]-Castile 1397, bur Guadalupe).

Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II records that, dissatisfied with his betrothal arranged by his father, “el Conde Don Alfonso su fijo” left Castile “por mar á la Rochela...en Francia”[1511]. The testament of “Don Enrique...Rey de Castilla, de Leon, de Toledo, de Galicia, de Sevilla, de Cordoba, de Murcia, de Jaén, del Algarbe, de Algecira, é Señor de Molina”, dated at Burgos 29 May 1374, bequeathed property to “...Don Alonso mi fijo...Doña Juana mi fija (in case her marriage with “Don Pedro fijo del Marques de Villena”, to whom she is betrothed, does not take place)...Doña Elvira Iñiguez madre de los dichos Don Alonso é Doña Juana mis fijos...”[1512]. A powerful noble in the region of Asturias, he clashed with his half-brother King Juan I. Imprisoned by the latter, he was freed in Sep 1391. He continued to oppose King Enrique III after the latter's succession, but was besieged for several months in the fortress of Gijón, until he surrendered in Sep 1395. He fled to the English ports in France in an unsuccessful attempt to obtain help. m (contract Burgos 9 Apr 1373, Burgos 1378) dona ISABEL de Portugal, illegitimate daughter of FERNANDO I King of Portugal & his mistress --- (1364-Marans, France after 1395).

Señor de Vizcaya y Lara by grant of his father in 1370: Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II records that the king granted “el Señorio de Lara é de Vizcaya” to “su fijo el Infante Don Juan” after the death of his brother Tello, as they belonged “por herencia á la Reyna Doña Juana su muger madre del dicho Infante”[1546]. Alférez mayor for his father 1371. He succeeded his father in 1379 as JUAN I King of Castile and León, crowned at Las Huelgas 25 Jul 1379. Immediately faced with trouble from Portugal (who signed an alliance in July 1380 with John of Gaunt who claimed the throne of Castile by right of his wife), peace was temporarily restored by the peace of Elvas in August 1382 and confirmed by the betrothal of Infanta dona Brites, daughter of Fernando I King of Portugal, with Juan I's younger son Infante don Fernando. On King Fernando's death, Juan I claimed the Portuguese throne by right of his wife. He invaded Portugal 20 Dec 1383, captured Santarem the following month, and encircled Lisbon in March 1384. He was defeated firstly at Los Atoleiros 6 April 1384, and again by the forces of João de Aviz (who had proclaimed himself king of Portugal at Coimbra 6 Apr 1385) at Trancoso in May 1385 and, decisively, at Aljubarrota 14 Aug 1385. John of Gaunt invaded Castile in July 1386 to enforce his claim to the Castilian throne, quickly overrunning Galicia. He pushed further into Castile in March 1387, but was eventually obliged to withdraw and sign the Treaty of Bayonne in July 1388 (under which the marriage of King Juan's older son to John of Gaunt's daughter was agreed). Juan's reign was marked by centralisation of the power of the monarchy, including the re-establishment of the Royal Council. He died after falling from his horse. Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I records the death 9 Oct 1390 of “el Rey Don Juan” at Alcalá de Henares after falling from his horse and his burial in Toledo “en la Iglesia de Sancta Maria”[1547]. Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique III quotes the testament of “Don Juan...Rey de Castilla, de Leon, de Portogal...”, dated 21 Jul 1385, which requests burial “en la Iglesia Catedral de la cibdad de Toledo”, provides for the guardianship of his two sons[1548]. m firstly (Betrothed 12 Apr 1374, Soria 18 Jun 1375) Infanta doña LEONOR de Aragón, daughter of PEDRO IV "el Ceremonioso" King of Aragon & his third wife Eleonora di Sicilia [Aragon] (Santa María del Puig 20 Feb 1358-Cuellar 13 Sep 1382, bur Toledo Santa María). Her marriage was arranged as part of the arrangements for peace with Castile agreed at Almazán 12 Apr 1374 and at Lérida 10 May 1375. Ayala´s Crónica de Enrique II records the betrothal in 1374 of “el Rey Don Enrique...[el] Infante Don Juan su fijo” and “[el] Rey Don Pedro de Aragon...la Infanta Doña Leonor su fija”, and the marriage in Soria in May 1375[1549]. Pedro IV King of Aragon offered condolences to Juan I King of Castile for the death “sábado, a XIII días del mes de setiembre más cerca passado” of “la Reyna, vuestra muger e nuestra filla” by charter dated 7 Oct 1382[1550]. She died in childbirth. Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I records that “la Reyna Doña Leonor” died “en la villa de Cuellar de parto de una fija...la qual vivió poco tiempo despues” and that she was buried in “la cibdad de Toledo...en la Iglesia de Sancta Maria”[1551]. m secondly (Elvas 14 May 1383) Infanta dona BRITES de Portugal, daughter of FERNANDO I King of Portugal & his wife Leonor Téllez de Meneses (Coimbra end 1372-Madrigal after 24 Dec 1406 maybe [1409], bur Toledo Cathedral). This marriage was arranged subsequent to the Peace of Elvas in Aug 1382, under which Infanta dona Brites was betrothed to Infante don Fernando de Castilla, younger son of Juan I King of Castile, when King Juan substituted himself as her husband after the death of his first wife. Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I records the details of the negotiations for the marriage in 1382, the signing of the marriage contract in 1383, and the marriage in “la villa de Yelves”[1552]. She succeeded her father in 1383 as dona BRITES Queen of Portugal. Deposed 1383. The testament of “don Henrique...Rey de Castilla...”, dated 24 Dec 1406, provided annual maintenance to “la Reyna doña Beatriz mi madre”[1553]. King Juan I & his first wife had three children: 1. Infante don ENRIQUE de Castilla y León (Burgos 4 Oct 1379-Toledo 25 Dec 1406, bur Toledo Cathedral). Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I records the birth 4 Oct 1379 at Burgos of “un fijo...Don Enrique...primogénito...el qual es hoy Rey en Castilla” to “[el] Rey Don Juan...de la Reyna Doña Leonor su muger...”[1554]. Alférez mayor for his father 1385. Proclaimed Principe de Asturias on the eve of his wedding Sep 1388. He succeeded his father in 1390 as ENRIQUE III "el Doliente" King of Castile and León, under a Council of Regency headed by Juan García Manrique Archbishop of Santiago de Compostela until he was declared of age 2 Aug 1393. - see below. 2. Infante don FERNANDO de Castilla y León (Medina del Campo 27 Nov 1380-Igualada, near Barcelona 22 Apr 1416). Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I records the birth 27 Nov 1380 at Medina del Campo of “un fijo...el Infante Don Ferrando, que es agora Señor de Lara, é Duque de Peñafiel, é Conde de Mayorga” to “[el] Rey Don Juan...de la Reyna Doña Leonor su muger...”[1555]. Duque de Peñafiel, Señor de Lara. Regent of Castile for his nephew Juan II King of Castile 1406. Following the death in 1410 of Martin I "el Humano" last King of Aragon of the House of the counts of Barcelona, he was one of the five candidates for the throne of Aragon. Fernando became the preferred successor, and under the Compromise of Caspe 25 Jun 1412 was chosen as FERNANDO I "él de Antequera" King of Aragon, Sicily, Mallorca and Valencia, Conde de Barcelona, Urgel, Cerdagne and Roussillon, and crowned at Zaragoza Jan 1414. Encountering strong opposition, especially from Pedro de Luna and Jaime Conde de Urgel, he took two years to be accepted as uncontested sovereign of Aragon. Fernando's reversal of Aragonese support for the anti-pope Benedict XIII signalled the end of the schism in the Catholic church. - KINGS of ARAGON 1412-1516 (TRASTÁMARA). 3. Infanta doña [LEONOR] de Castilla y León (Cuellar 13 Sep 1382-young). Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I records that “la Reyna Doña Leonor” died “en la villa de Cuellar de parto de una fija...la qual vivió poco tiempo despues”[1556]. She is named Leonor in secondary sources but the primary source on which this is based has not yet been identified. King Juan I & his second wife had [one child]: 4. [Infante don MIGUEL de Castilla y León ([1384-1385], probably later). Miguel is named in modern secondary works[1557]. Serrano casts doubt on his existence, which he says is confirmed only by 17th and 18th century secondary sources. He suggests that confusion must have arisen with Miguel, son of Manoel I King of Portugal and his first wife Infanta doña Isabel de Aragón, who was born in 1498 and died in 1500[1558]. The earliest mention of Miguel, son of King Juan I, has been traced to two 17th century sources, neither of which cites primary sources in support of its statements. Salazar de Mendoza (first published in 1618) names “el infante don Miguel que murió niño” as the son of King Juan and his second wife[1559], and Méndez Silva (in 1656) names “Don Miguel que murió de poca edad año 1385” as the son of King Juan by his second marriage[1560], the latter presumably based on the former. An indication that Serrano must be correct is provided by the testament of “Don Juan...Rey de Castilla, de Leon, de Portogal...” dated 21 Jul 1385, reproduced in the Crónica del rey Enrique III. This document names “[el] Infante Don Enrique mi fijo...[el] Infante Don Ferrando mi fijo” but, in reference to “el derecho del Regno de Portogal”, records that “non podemos entender...que otro haya derecho en el Regno, salvo la Reyna mi muger y nos”, and specifically prohibits his elder son from taking the title king of Portugal unless this follows judgment by the Pope[1561]. The testament makes no mention of children by his second marriage either living, deceased, or to be born. Nor does the Crónica refer to any later testament, which probably would have been issued if children had been born to the king´s second wife even if they had survived only a short time, as some amendment to the text relating to the king´s older son´s potential right to the Portuguese throne would have been necessary. In a later passage, the Crónica specifically states that, apart from his two sons named above, King Juan “non ovo otros fijos legítimos, nin en otra manera en ningund tiempo, salvo una Infanta de que morió la Reyna Doña Leonor su muger despues de parida, segund suso contamos”[1562]. The mention in this passage of the king´s daughter by his first marriage, who died young, strongly suggests that the chronicler would also have mentioned any short-lived children by the king’s second marriage if he had known about them. In addition, there is no mention of the birth of any children to the king´s second marriage in Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I. It is unlikely that the existence of any such children would have gone unnoticed because of the potential impact on the disputed Portuguese succession. The name “Miguel” seems a surprising choice for a late-14th century prince in Spain and Portugal: no example of the name has been found in the Castilian or Portuguese royal families until the birth of King Manoel´s son more than a century later. While it is difficult to prove a negative beyond all doubt, the wording of the Crónica points to Miguel never having existed. If that is correct, it is difficult to understand the motive for inventing his existence, unless it really was simply a mistake as suggested by Serrano. If Miguel did exist, the birth date of his supposed mother suggests that he would have been born somewhat later than 1385.]
Infante don ENRIQUE de Castilla y León, son of JUAN I King of Castile & his first wife Infanta doña Leonor de Aragón (Burgos 4 Oct 1379-Toledo 25 Dec 1406, bur Toledo Cathedral). Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I records the birth 4 Oct 1379 at Burgos of “un fijo...Don Enrique...primogénito...el qual es hoy Rey en Castilla” to “[el] Rey Don Juan...de la Reyna Doña Leonor su muger...”[1563]. Alférez mayor for his father 1385. Proclaimed Principe de Asturias on the eve of his wedding Sep 1388. He succeeded his father in 1390 as ENRIQUE III "el Doliente" King of Castile and León, under a Council of Regency headed by Juan García Manrique Archbishop of Santiago de Compostela until he was declared of age 2 Aug 1393. After his succession, he was opposed by powerful members of his family, his aunt Queen Leonor of Navarre, Fadrique de Castilla Duque de Benevente, Pedro de Castilla Conde de Trastámara and Alfonso Enríquez Conde de Noreña, who formed the League of Lillo to challenge his authority as King. However, with the help of nobles who formed the rival League of Illescas, Enrique eventually succeeded in establishing his authority by 1395, confiscating the lands of his rebellious relatives. Enrique III was able to improve relations with England because of his marriage, without breaking the long-standing commitments to France as this coincided with a lull in the hundred years war. This enabled Castile to increase trade along the English Channel, as far as Bruges. Enrique also established the first Spanish contact with the Canary Islands in 1393. Relations with Portugal degenerated once more, Portugal capturing Badajoz in May 1396, in revenge for which Castilian troops under Ruy López Dávalos burned Viseu. Peace with Portugal was finally restored in 1402. The plague of 1401 was a further setback. Enrique started the construction of many buildings in Madrid, notably the Prado palace, and the Miraflores in Burgos. He died soon after declaring war on the Muhammad VII, Nazari King of Granada, who had occupied the castle of Ayamonte. The testament of “don Henrique...Rey de Castilla...”, dated 24 Dec 1406, requested burial “en la Iglesia Catedral de Santa Maria de Toledo” with his grandparents and parents, appointed as his heir “[el] Principe don Juan mi hijo” under the joint guardianship of “la Reyna doña Catalina mi muger y el Infante don Fernando mi hermano”, bequeathed property to “doña Ines y a doña Isabel mis tias, Monjas de Santa Clara de Toledo...la Infanta doña Maria mi hija [...desposada con don Alonso mi sobrino, hijo del Infante don Fernando mi hermano]...la otra Infanta doña Catalina mi hija”, and provided annual maintenance to “la Reyna doña Beatriz mi madre”[1564]. An epitaph in Toledo Cathedral records the death 2 Jun 1418 at Valladolid of “el...rey don Henrique...hijo del...rey don Juan, nieto del...rey don Henrique...nacio en Burgos dia de San Francisco, murio dia de Navidad en Toledo, yendo a la guerra de los Moros con nobles del reyno...1407”[1565]. Betrothed (1380) to Infanta dona BRITES de Portugal, daughter of FERNANDO I King of Portugal & his wife Leonor Téllez de Meneses (Coimbra end 1372-Madrigal after 1406 maybe [1409], bur Toledo Cathedral). Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I records the betrothal in 1380 in Soria of “la Infanta Doña Beatriz fija del Rey Don Ferrando” and “el Infante Don Enrique fijo del Rey Don Juan que estonce nasciera”[1566]. m (Palencia Sep 1388, consummated Madrid Feb 1393) KATHARINE of Lancaster, daughter of JOHN of Gaunt Duke of Lancaster & his second wife [Infanta] doña Constanza de Castilla y León (Hertford Castle [6 Jun 1372/31 Mar 1373]-Valladolid 2 Jun 1418, bur Toledo Cathedral). A late 15th century/early 16th century manuscript names “Katerinam post hereditariam reginam Hispaniarum” as the child of “Johannes Gaunt Dux Lancastrie et quartus filius Edward III” and his second wife “Constanciam filiam regis Hispaniarum”[1567]. Her marriage was agreed in July 1388 under the Treaty of Bayonne, when her father renounced his claim to the throne of Castile. Ayala´s Crónica de Juan I records the betrothal of “[el] Infante Don Enrique fijo primogénito del Rey Don Juan de Castilla” and “Doña Catalina fijo [del]...Duque [de Alencastre é la Duquesa Doña Costanza su muger]” as part of the peace arrangements agreed at Bayonne in 1388[1568]. The will of "John son of the King of England, Duke of Lancaster", dated 3 Feb 1397, chose burial “in the cathedral church of St Paul, of London...beside my...late wife Blanch”, bequeathed property to “Dame Katherine del Staple...my...wife Katherine...my...brother the Duke of York...my...son Henry Duke of Hereford, Earl of Derby...my...daughter Philippa Queen of Portugal...my...daughter Katherine Queen of Castile and Leon...my...daughter Elizabeth Duchess of Exeter...my...son John Beaufort Marquis of Dorset...my...son the Bishop of Lincoln...my...son Thomas Beaufort...my...daughter their sister Countess of Westmoreland and Lady of Nevil...my...son John brother to...Henry...Mons.

The testament of “don Henrique...Rey de Castilla...”, dated 24 Dec 1406, appointed as his heir “[el] Principe don Juan mi hijo” under the joint guardianship of “la Reyna doña Catalina mi muger y el Infante don Fernando mi hermano”[1570]. An epitaph in Toledo Cathedral records the death 2 Jun 1418 at Valladolid of “la...reyna doña Catalina de Castilla y Leon muger del...rey don Henrique, madre del...rey don Juan...hija del...principe don Juan primogenito del rey de Inglaterra, Duque de Guiana y Alencastre, y de la Infanta doña Constança primogenita y heredera de los reynos de Castilla...” and her burial there 10 Sep 1419[1571].

Infante don JUAN de Castilla y León, son of ENRIQUE III "el Doliente" King of Castile and León & his wife Katharine of Lancaster (Toro 6 Mar 1405-Valladolid 20 Jul 1454, bur Burgos). The testament of “don Henrique...Rey de Castilla...”, dated 24 Dec 1406, appointed as his heir “[el] Principe don Juan mi hijo” under the joint guardianship of “la Reyna doña Catalina mi muger y el Infante don Fernando mi hermano”[1576]. He succeeded his father in 1406 as JUAN II King of Castile and León, under the joint regency of his mother and his uncle Fernando until the latter's death in 1416, subsequently of his mother alone, and from her death in 1418 of his first cousins Infantes don Juan and don Enrique de Aragón. Declared of age at Madrid 7 March 1419. Even after this, his cousin Enrique in particular exerted a powerful influence over Juan II, even sequestrating him and taking over the royal palace of Tordesillas in 1419. Enrique reinforced his power by marrying the King's sister in 1420. However, Infante Enrique's power was short-lived, he was arrested in Madrid in June 1422 and imprisoned. King Juan II rapidly fell under the influence of Álvaro de Luna, appointed Constable of Castile in 1423. Relations with Aragon deteriorated, with King Alfonso V threatening military invasion to release his brother, who was eventually set free in 1427. The Aragonese invasion took place in 1429, but had little success. Peace was restored by the Treaty of Majano in July 1430, the Castilian titles and assets of the Infantes de Aragón being confiscated. Álvaro de Luna's power continued to grow, provoking discontent among the Castilian nobility which came to a head when King Juan II ordered the detention of Pedro Manrique in August 1437. While Juan de Navarra's rehabilitation was confirmed in Toledo Sep 1436, when his Castilian income was restored to him, Medina de Rioseco rebelled against Álvaro de Luna. The latter was banished from court for 6 months under the "Seguro de Tordesillas", the outcome of a series of conferences between the Infantes, the nobility and de Luna himself, renewed for 6 years at Medina del Campo in 1441. Juan de Navarra pushed his advantage too far with the coup d'état of Rámaga in 1443, reducing King Juan II to a virtual prisoner but further antagonising the Castilian nobility. Aragon's invasion ended with Castile's victory at Olmedo 14 May 1445, which marked the definitive eclipse of the Infantes of Aragon in Castile. The decline of Álvaro de Luna's influence was hastened by the hatred of Juan II's new Queen Isabel de Portugal. He was eventually assassinated in Valladolid in 1453. m firstly (Avila 4 Aug 1420) his first cousin, Infanta doña MARÍA de Aragón, daughter of FERNANDO I "él de Antequera" King of Aragon & his wife Leonor Urraca de Castilla Ctss de Alburquerque ([1396]-Villacasta 18 Feb 1445). m secondly (Madrigalejo [15] Aug 1447) Infanta dona ISABEL de Portugal, daughter of Infante dom JOÃO de Portugal Duque de Beja & his wife dona Isabel de Bragança ([1428]-Arevalo 15 Aug 1496, bur Carthusian convent at Miraflora near Burgos). When her husband died, she retired with her two children to the fortress of Arevalo, where she gradually went insane. King Juan II & his first wife had four children: 1. Infanta doña CATALINA de Castilla y León (Illescas 5 Oct 1422-Madrigal 17 Sep 1424, bur Santa María la Real de Madrigal). Pss de Asturias. 2. Infanta doña LEONOR de Castilla y León (Burgos 10 Sep 1423-La Espina 1425). Pss de Asturias. 3. Infante don ENRIQUE de Castilla y León (Valladolid 4 Jan 1425-Madrid 11 Dec 1474, bur Madrid). Principe de Asturias. He succeeded his father in 1454 as ENRIQUE IV "el Impotente" King of Castile and León. On his succession, he decided to renew hostilities against the Moors. He fell under the influence of Juan de Pacheco Marqués de Villena, who became chief minister but plotted Enrique's downfall in favour of his half-brother Alfonso. He acknowledged his half-brother as his heir, over his daughter, and after Alfonso's death, the latter's sister Isabel. Reversing this decision 26 Oct 1470, he betrothed his daughter to Charles Duc de Berry, but the Cortes refused to confirm this. m firstly (Valladolid 15 Sep 1440, annulled 1453) Infanta doña BLANCA de Navarra y Aragón, daughter of Infante don JUAN de Aragón, JUAN King of Navarre [later JUAN II King of Aragon] & his wife Blanche d'Evreux-Navarre ([Peñafiel or Olite] [8 or 9] Jun 1424-Lescar 2 Dec 1464, bur Lescar Cathedral). Her birth date is indicated by a “cédule” of her parents, dated at Tudela 10 Jun 1436, which ordered reimbursement “d’avances faites le 8 juin à l’occasion du douzième anniversaire de Blanche”[1577], although it is not certain that the advances were made on the actual day of her birthday. Desdevises du Dezert records her birth 7 Jun 1424[1578], citing Codina but he specifies only “á mediados de Junio de 1424’” (no source cited)[1579]. R. Anthony records that “Dans ses notes manuscrites extraites des Archives d’Olite, Moret donne comme date de cette naissance le 9 juin” (no source citation), and adds that “Quant au lieu de naissance, ce fut Peñafiel ou Olite” (no sources cited)[1580]. Yanguas records the marriage in Valladolid “del…principe de Asturias con la infanta Da Blanca, de edad ya ambos de quince años”[1581]. Sandoval also records the marriage at Valladolid[1582]. Desdevises du Dezert dates the marriage 15 Sep 1440[1583]. She succeeded her brother in 1461 as Pss de Viana, but was disinherited in Navarre by her father in favour of her younger sister. R. Anthony records that “Eléonore…achève sa vie, prisionnière à Orthez, puis a Lescar, de 1462 à 1464”, while a (contemporary?) manuscript records the place and date of her death[1584]. A “Placet adressé au roi par la ville de Lescar pour obtenir l'érection de la statue de Louis XIV projetée par la province de Béarn” records Blanca’s place of burial[1585]. m secondly (Córdoba 20 May 1455) Infanta dona JUANA de Portugal, daughter of DUARTE I King of Portugal & his wife Infanta doña Leonor de Aragón (posthumously Monte Oliveto near Almada-Tojal [20] Mar 1439-Madrid 12 Dec 1475, bur Madrid). She was the Mistress of PEDRO de Castilla "el Mozo" (son of PEDRO de Castilla "el Viejo" & his wife Beatriz de Fonseca y Ulloa), by whom she had two illegitimate children. King Enrique IV & his second wife had one child: a) Infanta doña JUANA de Castilla y León (Alcazar de Madrid Feb 1462-Santa Clara de Coimbra 1530). Pss de Asturias. Her paternity was disputed by her enemies. She was known as "la Beltraneja" after Beltrán de La Cueva, who was reputed to be her mother's lover. She was blocked from succeeding her purported father as Queen. After Queen Isabel I's accession, Juana was recognised as Queen of Castile in Burgos, León, Madrid, Toledo, Alcalá and Seville. Alfonso V King of Portugal requested her hand in marriage, delivered her from Villena 12 May 1475, but his further progress was blocked after the indecisive battle at Toro 1 May 1476. Infanta doña Juana refused plans to marry Infante don Juan Principe de Asturias. She became a nun 12 Oct 1480, settling in Lisbon 1493. She refused an offer of marriage from Fernando King of Aragon in 1504. She renounced all rights to Castile 1522 in favour of João III King of Portugal. 4. Infanta doña MARÍA de Castilla y León ([1428]-after 1429, bur Dueñas). King Juan II & his second wife had two children: 5. Infanta doña ISABEL de Castilla y León (Madrigal de las Altas Torres 22 Apr 1451-Castillo de la Mota, Medina del Campo 26 Nov 1504). Her mother took her to the fortress of Arevalo when her father died, but her half-brother Enrique IV recalled her and her brother to court in 1462. Betrothed to Pr de Viana, she was also promised to Alfonso V King of Portugal, and to Girón, brother of Villena following the latter's machinations. She succeeded her half-brother in 1474 as ISABEL I Queen of Castile and León, insisting on governing Castile in her own not her husband's name. She and husband successfully outmanoeuvred Portugal's plans to place Juana la Beltraneja on the throne. Her achievements as Queen included reform of the privileges of the nobility, the cause of such difficulties for her two predecessors, and renovation of the legal system. With the aim of achieving religious unification, she introduced the Inquisition 11 Aug 1480. The reconquest of the final territories held by the Moors lasted 10 years, marked by defeats at Loja and Axarquia, but culminating in the capitulation of Granada 2 Jan 1492. The expulsion of the Jews followed, with disastrous economic consequences for the country. Isabel and her husband sponsored the voyage of Cristóbal Colon, resulting in the discovery of America which signalled the start of Spain's imperial expansion. m (Valladolid 19 Oct 1469) as his first wife, Infante don FERNANDO de Aragón, son of JUAN II King of Aragon and Navarre & his second wife Juana Enríquez Señora de Casarrubios del Monte y Arroyojolinos (Soa 10 Mar 1452-Madrigualejo 25 Jan 1516).

Infante don ALFONSO de Castilla y León (Tordesillas 15 Sep[1586] 1453-Cardeñosa 5 Jul 1468). Condestable of Castile 8 Jul 1454. Principe de Asturias. His mother took him to the fortress of Arevalo when his father died, but his half-brother Enrique IV recalled him and his sister to court in 1462. Alfonso became the puppet of Juan de Pacheco Marqués de Villena, ex-minister of the King, who plotted to depose Enrique and proclaim Alfonso king. Enrique IV acknowledged Alfonso as his heir. Villena proclaimed Alfonso King near Avila [Jun/Jul] 1465, this was recognised in Burgos, Toledo, Córdoba and Seville. He may have been poisoned by Villena.
