 Includes NotesNotes for Agatha de FERRERS:
WAS THIS THE MOTHER OF JOAN LADY OF WALES??? ACCORDING TO BURKE SHE WAS.This person could have been the Duchess of Brittany. John's brother was married to her but he was killed in 1189 and she never married again. She did rule Brittany, so effectively could have been viewed as a queen (regina). John may have been married at the time but later his marriage was annulled. So in effect he was not married at the time of Joan's birth thus allowing the Pope to legitimise the the birth of Joan.
