Notes for Reinald De Courtenay:
Reginald de Courtenay, who went to the Holy Land, and went to England with Queen Eleanor (divorced wife of Louis VII, King of France), who married Henry, Duke of Normandy, afterwards Henry II, King of England. King Louis VII had taken his Queen Eleanor, heiress of Aquitiane and Poicters, etc., with him to the Holy Land, where he suspected her of nuptial infidelity. Upon that occasion there were two parties, one for the King and one for the Queen. Reginald de Courtenay was one of those who vindicated Eleanor's character. Reginald de Courtenay whilst in France married a sister of Guy de Donjon, who was one of the famous knights of that age, and descended from the ancient Counts of Corbeil, and had by her two daughters. The eldest, Elizabeth, married Peter, youngest son of Louis VI, King of France, surnamed Le Gros, which Peter on obtaining all the Seigneuries of Courtenay, Montorges, etc., took the name and arms of Courtenay, and was ancestor of the Courtenays of France, who claim the rank of Princes of the Blood next to the House of Bourbon. You are descended from Elizabeth and Peter in two ways through the Whitney line, thus: Their daughter Alice married Aymer, Count of Valence, and their daughter Isabel married King John of England (see your descent from Norman Kings). Their son Peter married Yolanda of Hainault, sister of Baldwin, Emperor of Constantinople, and their daughter Yolanda or Jolanda married Andrew, King of Hungary (see your descent from Kings of Hungary). Reginald de Courtenay married 2nd Hawisa D'Eincourt, only daughter and heir of Robert de Abrancis, from whom Reginald de Courtenay in right of his wife became hereditary Sheriff of Devonshire, Baron of Oakhampton, and Governor of Castle Exeter. Sir Reginald died Sept. 27, 1194 and is buried in Ford Abbey. His 2nd wife Hawisa died July 30, 1209. He was in great favor with Henry II, was with him in his wars, and esteemed a noble and valiant warrior, and was witness to many deeds and charters. By his 2nd wife he had 3 sons and one daughter: Robert, from whom this line is descended, Reginald, Henry, and Egeline (the wife of Gilbert Bassett, Baron of Heddington, by whom she had a daughter Eustachia, who married Richard de Camville, and their daughter Idonea married William de Longspee, Earl of Salisbury, natural son of Henry II, by Rosamund Clifford. Ela de Longspee married James D'Audley and Joan D'Audley married John de Beauchamp, No. 5 in the Beauchamp line, from which Robert Abell descends).

| Notes for Robert De Courtenay Baron Of Oakhampton: Robert de Courtenay, eldest son of Sir Reginald de Courtenay and his 2nd wife, Hawisa D'Eincourt, succeeded as Baron Oakhampton, Viscount of Devonshire and Governor of the Castle Exeter, and Governor of Bruge, now Bridgeworth, 1214. He died July 26, 1242 and was buried at Ford Abbey. In the year 1205, in the 7th year of King John's reign, he gave 500 œ and 5 palfries to have livery of the barony of Oakhampton, with the knights fees thereto, which were no less than 92. In the 12th year of King John, to be released from debt, he covenanted to serve the King with 20 men at arms, at his own charge. In 17th of King John he was made Sheriff of Oxfordshire and Governor of the Castle of Oxford. In 16th of Henry II, 1232, the King commanded him to deliver the Castle of Exeter to Peter de Riveaux, his favorite, by which the family of Courtenay was deprived of the honour and profit of the Viscounty of Devonshire after it had been enjoyed by them and their ancestors for nearly 200 years, although Robert de Courtenay had been faithful to the King and his father on many occasions. At his death his remains were deposited in Ford Abbey in the chancel of the church there with great pomp; and a stately monument, in the form of a pyramid, was erected to his memory. He married Mary, youngest daughter of William de Redvers, Earl of Devonshire, by whom his posterity sometime after became Earls of Devonshire. |

Notes for Raimund Berenger IV (V) Count Of Barcelona:
Ramon Berenguer IV,
byname RAMON BERENGUER THE HOLY, Catalan RAMON BERENGUER EL SANT (b. c. 1113--d. Aug. 6, 1162, Borgo San Dalmazzo, Piedmont [Italy]), count of Barcelona from 1131 to 1162, regent of Provence from 1144 to 1157, and ruling prince of Aragon from 1137 to 1162.
The elder son of Ramon Berenguer III, he continued his father's crusading wars against the Spanish Muslims. The kingdom of Aragon soon sought Ramon Berenguer IV's aid against Castile. In the course of their negotiations, he was promised the hand of the Aragonese king Ramiro II's daughter and heir, Petronila (Peronella); they were married on Aug. 11, 1137, and a few months later (November 13), Ramiro II abdicated in favour of his daughter and son-in-law. Ramon Berenguer IV thus became the last count of Barcelona to take this as his principal title, for, from 1137, he was also ruler of Aragon (though he himself never assumed the title of king). From the reign of his son, who in 1162 succeeded him with the title of Alfonso II, the counts of Barcelona styled themselves, in the first place, kings of Aragon.
When Ramon Berenguer IV's father had died, he had left the county of Provence to a younger son. When this son died, his brother Ramon Berenguer IV acted as regent (conventionally with the title Ramon Berenguer II of Provence) until the legitimate heir, his young nephew, reached majority in 1157, as Ramon Berenguer III of Provence. When this count of Provence died in 1166 without a male heir, he was succeeded by Ramon Berenguer IV's son Alfonso II, king of Aragon. By his wars and conquests from the Moors--Tortosa (1148), Lerida, Mequinenza, and Fraga (1149), and Prades and Siurana (1153)--Ramon Berenguer IV definitively established the boundaries of the principality of Catalonia.

March 26, 1211), second king of Portugal (1185-1211), son of Afonso I. Sancho's reign was marked by a resettlement of the depopulated areas of his country, by the establishment of new towns, and by the rebuilding of frontier strongholds and castles. To facilitate his plans, he encouraged foreign settlers and enlisted bishops, religious orders, and nobles in his colonization projects, granting vast territories to the military orders (the Hospitalers, the Templars, the Orders of Calatrava and Santiago). After an invasion by the Almohad prince Abu Yusuf Ya'qub al-Mansur, Sancho used the help of a passing crusader fleet to capture Silves from the Moors (1189), but lost it (1191) and other lands south of the Tagus River when al-Mansur again attacked.

Notes for Alfonso VII Raimundez King Of Castile And Leon:
Alfonso VII,
byname ALFONSO THE EMPEROR, Spanish ALFONSO EL EMPERADOR (b. 1104?--d. August 1157, Fresneda, Castile), king of Leon and Castile from 1126 to 1157, son of Raymond of Burgundy and the grandson of Alfonso VI, whose imperial title he assumed. Though his reign saw the apogee of the imperial idea in medieval Spain and though he won notable victories against the Moors, he remains a somewhat hazy figure.
His childhood was complicated by the struggle between his mother Urraca and her second husband, Alfonso I of Aragon, for control of Castile and Leon. Only on Urraca's death (1126) did his stepfather finally relinquish his claims. Alfonso was then formally accepted as emperor by the kings of Aragon and Pamplona (Navarre), by the count of Barcelona, and by various Hispano-Moorish rulers. His capture of Almería (1147) from the Moors won him renown, as did other victories, but in the end these led to little expansion of territory. Almería was lost again in 1157 and Córdoba remained in his hands for only three years. In 1146 a new invasion of North African fanatics, the Almohads, began. Alfonso now allied himself with the Almoravids and devoted the rest of his life to a series of campaigns to check Almohad expansion in southern Spain.
Despite the importance of the imperial idea at this time, peninsular fractionalist tendencies were by no means dormant. Alfonso was unable to prevent the establishment of Portugal as an independent kingdom (1140) and, in his will, he himself divided his realm, as was the Spanish custom, between his two sons, Sancho III of Castile and Ferdinand II of Leon. This act finally destroyed the concept of empire in medieval Spain.

Alfonso VII, 1126-1157, called the Emperor, is a dignified and somewhat enigmatical figure. A vague tradition had always assigned the title of Emperor to the sovereign who held Leon as the most direct representative of the Visigoth kings, who were themselves representatives of the Roman Empire. He married 1st Berengaria, daughter of Raymond Berenger III and his wife Marie, daughter of Le Cid, through which marriage the Cid became the ancestor of the later royal dynasty of Spain.

| Notes for Fernando II Alfonso King Of Leon And Castile: Ferdinand II king of Leon from 1157 to 1188, second son of Alfonso VII. Despite several internal revolts against his rule, Ferdinand's reign was notable for the repopulation of Leonese Extremadura and for the victories he secured farther south against the Almohads in the last 20 years of his reign. These included the capture of Alcántara (1166) and Badajoz (1169). He also gave important support to the new military order of Santiago, founded with his approval in 1170. Ferdinand, who called himself rex hispanorum ("king of the Spaniards"), established a temporary tutelage over Castile during the minority of his nephew Alfonso VIII and occupied Segovia and Toledo (1162-66), though Alfonso later reacted violently against Ferdinand. Ferdinand was also frequently engaged in hostilities with the nascent Portuguese kingdom but came successfully to the rescue of the Portuguese when the Almohads invested the key city of Santarém (1184). |

| Notes for Sancho VI (V) Garcia King Of Navarre: Sancho VI, byname SANCHO THE WISE, Spanish SANCHO EL SABIO (d. June 27, 1194), king of Navarre (Pamplona) from 1150 and son of García IV (or V) the Restorer. Sancho was the first to be called king of Navarre; previous kings were known as kings of Pamplona. In 1151 Castile and Aragon signed at Tudillén a treaty for the partition of Navarre. By skilled diplomacy Sancho avoided the destruction of his kingdom, accepting Alfonso VII of Castile as his overlord and marrying Alfonso's daughter. He himself intervened in Castilian affairs during the minority (1158-70) of Alfonso VIII. In 1176 both countries submitted their longstanding territorial disputes to Henry II of England as arbiter, who assigned Rioja to Castile. Sancho accepted this decision. He was a legislator of importance, conceding many municipal fueros (charters) and protecting Jews and immigrants (francos) from the north. Copyright (c) 1996 Encyclopaedia Britannica, Inc.

| Notes for Louis VII King Of France: Louis VII b. c. 1120 d. Sept. 18, 1180, Paris byname LOUIS THE YOUNGER, French LOUIS LE JEUNE, Capetian king of France who pursued a long rivalry, marked by recurrent warfare and continuous intrigue, with Henry II of England. In 1131 Louis was anointed as successor to his father, Louis VI, and in 1137 he became the sole ruler at his father's death. Louis married Eleanor, daughter of William X, duke of Aquitaine, in 1137, a few days before his effective rule began, and he thus temporarily extended the Capetian lands to the Pyrenees. Louis continued his father's pacification program by building the prestige of the kingship through an administrative government based on trustworthy men of humble origin and by consolidating his rule over his royal domains rather than by adding new acquisitions. From 1141 to 1143 he was involved in a fruitless conflict with Count Thibaut of Champagne and the papacy. But thereafter his relations with the popes were good; Alexander II, whom he supported against Frederick Barbarossa, took refuge in France. But the major threat to his reign came from Geoffrey, count of Anjou and, briefly, of Normandy, and Geoffrey's son Henry, who later (1154) became King Henry II of England as well as ruler of both Anjou and Normandy. After Louis repudiated his wife Eleanor for misconduct on March 21, 1152, she married Henry, who then took over control of Aquitaine. Ironically, this act was probably to Capetian advantage because Aquitaine might have drained the resources of Louis's kingdom while bringing him little revenue. After the death of Louis's second wife, he married Alix of Champagne, whose Carolingian blood brought added prestige to the monarchy (1160); their son became Philip II Augustus. Louis might have defeated Henry if he had made concerted attacks rather than weak assaults on Normandy in 1152. Anglo-Norman family disputes saved Louis's kingdom from severe incursions during the many conflicts that Louis had with Henry between 1152 and 1174. Louis was helped by the quarrel (1164-70) between Henry and Thomas Becket, archbishop of Canterbury, and a revolt (1173-74) of Henry's sons. Suger, abbot of Saint-Denis, who acted as regent in 1147-49 while Louis was away on the Second Crusade, is the primary historian for Louis's reign. Louis VII, King of France, took the long route by land, by the west coast of Asia Minor, and had lost the majority of his troops when he reached the Holy Land in 1148. He joined Conrad III, who had come by sea from Constantinople, and Baldwin, King of Jerusalem, and after some deliberations they decided to attack Damascus. This was impolitic, as Damascus was the only ally they had to help stop Nereddin, and at the end of four days, July 28, 1148, the siege was an absolute failure, and the Second Crusade collapsed. Louis VII returned by sea to France in the spring of 1149. Louis VII was born about 1121 and died 1180. He succeeded his father in 1137, and in the same year he married Eleanor, heiress of William II, Duke of Aquitiane. In 1152 he had his marriage with Eleanor annulled, and in the same year she married Henry II, King of England. In 1154 he married Constance, daughter of the King of Castile. Five years after the death of Constance, on the 4th of October, 1160, Louis VII married Adela, daughter of Theobald III, Count of Blois and Champagne, and by this third wife he had an heir, Philip Augustus. Descent from Louis VII, King of France, Leader of Second Crusade, Philip Augustus, King of France, Leader of Third Crusade. We speak of First, Second, and Third Crusades, but more exactly the Crusades were one continuous process. Scarcely a year passed in which new bands did not come to the Holy Land. Crusades seem to have been dignified by numbers when they followed some crushing defeat or disaster, as loss of Edessa in 1144, the Second Crusade, and the fall of Jerusalem in 1187, causing the Third Crusade, and they were led by Kings and Emperors. The years 1143-44 are in many ways the turning point in the history of the Latin East. In 1143 began the reign of the first native king. In 1143, John Comnemus and Fulk, King of Jerusalem, had just died, and Zengi, seeing his way clear, was able to throw himself on the great Christian outpost, Edessa, and finally entered on Christmas Day, 1144. Two years later Zengi died and was succeeded by his son Nureddin, and an attempt to recover Edessa was successfully repelled in November, 1146. Not only so, but the Franks, in the spring of 1147, were unwise enough to allow the hope of gaining two small towns to induce them to break the vital alliance with Damascus. Thus, in itself, the position of affairs in the Holy Land in 1147 were certainly ominous; aid from the west seemed a necessity. Early in 1145 news had come from Antioch to Eugenius III of the fall of Edessa, and at the end of the year he had sent an encyclical to France--the natural soil, as we have seen, of crusading zeal. The response was instantaneous: Louis VII of France himself, who bore on his conscience the burden of an unpunished massacre by his troops at Vitry in 1142, took the crusading vow on Christmas Day, 1145. St. Bernard, the crusading preacher, was persuaded by the Pope to become the preacher of the new movement. To the crusading King of France, St. Bernard added the King of Germany when, in Christmas week of 1146, he induced Conrad III to take the vow by his sermon in the Cathedral of Spires. Thus was begun the Second Crusade, under auspices still more favorable than those which attended the First Crusade, seeing that Kings now took the place of Knights. Louis had a stroke on his return fron Canterbury, England and died as result. |
