Research Notes: Husband - Peter I King of Portugal and the Algarve
From Wikipedia - Peter I of Portugal :
Peter I (Portuguese : Pedro, pronounced ['ped?u] ; 19 April 1320 - 18 January 1367), called the Just (Portuguese: o Justiceiro), was the eighth King of Portugal and the Algarve from 1357 until his death. He was the third but only surviving son of Afonso IV of Portugal and his wife, princess Beatrice of Castile .
Early life
Afonso IV married his daughter, Maria, to Alfonso XI of Castile, but quickly learned that she was being mistreated by her husband. Alfonso's cousin, Juan Manuel, Duke of Peñafiel , had also been rebuffed by the king when his daughter Constanza was rejected in favor of the Portuguese princess. Feeling as though his daughter was being dishonored, Afonso was glad to enter into an alliance with Juan Manuel and married his son and heir, Pedro, to Constanza.
When Constanza arrived in Portugal, Inês de Castro , the daughter of an aristocratic Castilian land-owner, accompanied her as her lady-in-waiting. Pedro fell in love with Inês very quickly, and the two conducted an affair that lasted until Constanza's death in 1345. The scandal of this affair caused Afonso to banish Inês from court, but this did not end the relationship, and the two began living together in secret.
According to the chronicle of Fernão Lopes , during this period, Pedro began giving Inês's brothers important positions at court. This behavior alarmed Afonso and made him believe that upon his death, the Portuguese throne would fall to the Castilians. This is the official motive behind Afonso's next action: he sent three men to find Inês and murder her in 1355. Pedro's rage at the murder of his love is what allegedly sparked his revolt against his father. This revolt began in 1355 and lasted into 1356, when Afonso finally defeated his son. One year later Afonso died, and Pedro succeeded to the throne.
King of Portugal
Fernão Lopes labels Pedro as "the Just" and said that Pedro loved justice --especially the dispensing of it, which he enjoyed doing for himself. Inês' assassins received his harshest punishment: the three had escaped to Castile , but Pedro arranged for them to be exchanged for Castilian fugitives residing in Portugal with his nephew, the Castilian Pedro I. One man escaped, but the other two were brought to justice, and Lopes says that Pedro ripped their hearts out with his own hands.
It is possible that Pedro of Portugal has been confused with Pedro I of Castile: both have the same name, both lived at the same time, the two were closely related, and both are credited with committing violent acts towards their subjects. Despite his gruesome legacy, Pedro of Portugal did have a peaceful reign and managed to install a system of justice which was relatively fair for the times. He attempted this with his Beneplácito Régio in 1361, which forbade any Papal Bulls to be published without his prior consent. This was a result of the number of fake papal documents that had been entering the country. He also began the "nationalization" of the military orders by placing his youngest son João (an illegitimate child born after Inês' death) as the Master of the Order of Avis. He claimed that he and Inês had been married and thus that their four children were legitimate, but nothing ever came of this. Pedro and Inês' children went to live in Castile.
Legend holds that Pedro later had Inês' body exhumed and placed upon a throne , dressed in rich robes and jewels, requiring all of his vassals to kiss the hand of the deceased "queen". This has never been proven, but what is known is that Pedro did have Inês' body removed from her resting place in Coimbra and taken to Alcobaça where her body was laid to rest in the monastery . Pedro had two tombs constructed in the monastery, one for each of them. These still exist today; they contain images of Pedro and Inês facing each other, with the words "Até o fim do mundo..." or "Until the end of the world..." inscribed on the marble .
Pedro was also the father of Fernando I and João I . João was the Master of the military order of Avis, and he would become the founder of the Avis dynasty in 1385, after defeating an attempt by Juan I to usurp the Portuguese throne.

From Wikipedia - Philip of Swabia :
Philip of Swabia (1177 - June 21 , 1208 ) was king of Germany and duke of Swabia , the rival of the emperor Otto IV .
Biography
Philip was the fifth and youngest son of the emperor Frederick I and Beatrix , daughter of Renaud III , count of Burgundy , and brother of the emperor Henry VI . He entered the clergy, was made provost of Aix-la-Chapelle , and in 1190 or 1191 was chosen bishop of Würzburg . Having accompanied his brother Henry to Italy in 1191, Philip forsook his ecclesiastical calling, and, travelling again to Italy, was made duke of Tuscany in 1195 and received an extensive grant of lands. In his retinue in Italy was the Minnesinger Bernger von Horheim .
In 1196 Philip became duke of Swabia, on the death of his brother Conrad ; and in May 1197 he married Irene Angelina , daughter of the Byzantine emperor , Isaac II , and widow of Roger III, Titular King of Sicily , a lady who is described by Walther von der Vogelweide as " the rose without a thorn, the dove without guile."
Philip enjoyed his brother's confidence to a very great extent, and appears to have been designated as guardian of the Henry's young son Frederick , afterwards the emperor Frederick II, in case of his father's early death. In 1197 he had set out to fetch Frederick from Sicily for his coronation as King of the Germans when he heard of the emperor's death and returned at once to Germany. He appears to have desired to protect the interests of his nephew and to quell the disorder which arose on Henry's death, but was overtaken by events. The hostility to the kingship of a child was growing, and after Philip had been chosen as defender of the empire during Frederick's minority he consented to his own election. He was elected German king at Mühlhausen on March 8 , 1198 , and was crowned at Mainz on the September 8 following.
Meanwhile, a number of princes hostile to Philip, under the leadership of Adolph , Archbishop of Cologne , had elected an anti-king in the person of Otto, second son of Henry the Lion , duke of Saxony . In the war that followed, Philip, who drew his principal support from south Germany, met with considerable success. In 1199 he received further accessions to his party and carried the war into his opponent's territory, although unable to obtain the support of Pope Innocent III , and only feebly assisted by his ally Philip Augustus , king of France . The following year was less favourable to his arms; and in March 1201 Innocent took the decisive step of placing Philip and his associates under the ban, and began to work energetically in favour of Otto.
Also in 1201, Philip was visited by his cousin Boniface of Montferrat , the leader of the Fourth Crusade . The Crusaders were by this time under Venetian control and were besieging Zara on the Adriatic Sea . Although Boniface's exact reasons for meeting with Philip are unknown, while at Philip's court he also met Alexius Angelus , Philip's brother-in-law. Alexius convinced Boniface, and later the Venetians, to divert the Crusade to Constantinople and restore Isaac II to the throne, as he had recently been deposed by Alexius III , Alexius and Irene's uncle.
The two succeeding years were still more unfavourable to Philip. Otto, aided by Ottokar I , king of Bohemia , and Hermann I , landgrave of Thuringia , drove him from north Germany, thus compelling him to seek by abject concessions, but without success, reconciliation with Innocent. The submission to Philip of Hermann of Thuringia in 1204 marks the turning-point of his fortunes, and he was soon joined by Adolph of Cologne and Henry I, Duke of Brabant .
On January 6 , 1205 he was crowned again with great ceremony by Adolph at Aix-la-Chapelle, though it was not until 1207 that his entry into Cologne practically brought the war to a close. A month or two later Philip was loosed from the papal ban, and in March 1208 it seems probable that a treaty was concluded by which a nephew of the pope was to marry one of Philip's daughters and to receive the disputed dukedom of Tuscany. Philip was preparing to crush the last flicker of the rebellion in Brunswick-Lüneburg when he was murdered at Bamberg , on June 21 , 1208 , by Otto of Wittelsbach , count palatine in Bavaria . Otto, already known for his unstable character, fell into a rage when he learned of the dissolution of his betrothal to Gertrude of Silesia by her father, Duke Henry I the Bearded of Lower Silesia . Henry was apparently informed of the Wittelsbach's cruel tendencies and in an act of concern for his young daughter decided to terminate the marriage agreement. Otto proceeded to blame Philip, without grounds, for another spurned marriage alliance (the first being to Philip's own daughter, Beatrice) and swore revenge on the German King, culminating in the murder at Bamberg.[1]
Philip was a brave and handsome man, and contemporary writers, among whom was Walther von der Vogelweide , praise his mildness and generosity.
Philip's descendants
Philip of Swabia married Irene Angelina , daughter of Isaac II Angelus on May 25 , 1197 . Their four daughters were:

In 1377 he was Admiral of the West and South, and in 1386 Admiral of all England. In this capacity he defeated a combined Franco-Spanish-Flemish fleet off of Margate in 1387. The following year he was one of the Lords Appellant to Richard II. In 1397 he was arrested for his opposition to Richard II, and then attainted and beheaded.
Arundel married twice. His first wife was Elizabeth de Bohun, daughter of William de Bohun, 1st Earl of Northampton. They married around September 28, 1359 and had four children.

From Wikipedia - Pons, Count of Toulouse :
Pons (II) William[1] (abt 1020 - 1060) was the Count of Toulouse from 1037. He was the eldest son and successor of William III Taillefer and Emma of Provence . He thus inherited the title marchio Provincæ . He is known to have owned many allods and he relied on Roman , Salic , and Gothic law .
Already in 1030, he possessed a lot of power in the Albigeois . In 1037, he gave many allodial churches and castles, including one half of that of Porta Spina , in the Albigeois, Nimois , and Provence as a bridal gift to his wife Majore .
In 1038, he split the purchase of the Diocese of Albi with the Trencavel family. In 1040, he donated property in Diens to Cluny . In 1047, he first appears as count palatine in a charter donating Moissac to Cluny.
Pons married first wife, Majore, in 1022. She died in 1044. In 1045, he married, Almodis de La Marche , former wife of Hugh V of Lusignan , but he too repudiated her in 1053. His only child by Majore, Pons the Younger , did not inherit his county and march. His eldest sons by Almodis, William IV and Raymond IV , originally just count of Saint-Gilles , succeeded him in turn. His son Hugh became abbot of Saint-Gilles. He had one daughter, Almodis, who married the Count of Melgueil .
Pons died in Toulouse and was buried in Saint-Sernin , probably late in 1060 or early in 1061.

Research Notes: Wife - Almodis de la Marche Countess of Limoges
From Wikipedia - Almodis de la Marche :
Almodis de la Marche (990 or c. 1020 - 16 October 1071 ) was the daughter of Bernard I, Count of Marche and wife Amélie. She married Hugh V of Lusignan around 1038 and they had two sons and one daughter:
Almodis and Hugh of Lusignan divorced due to consanguinity , and Hugh arranged for her to marry Count Pons of Toulouse in 1040. Together they produced several children, including:
She was still Pons' wife in April 1053, but shortly thereafter Almodis was abducted by Ramon Berenguer I, Count of Barcelona . He kidnapped her from Narbonne with the aid of a fleet sent north by his ally, the Muslim emir of Tortosa . They married immediately (despite the fact both of her previous husbands were still alive) and they appear with their twin sons in a charter the next year. Pope Victor II excommunicated Almodis and Ramon for this illegal marriage until 1056. Together they produced four children:
Almodis maintained contact with her former husbands and many children, and in 1066/1067 she traveled to Toulouse for her daughter's wedding. A few years before, in 1060, Hugh V of Lusignan had revolted against his lord, Duke William VIII of Aquitaine , in support of Almodis' son William IV of Toulouse . Her sons supported one another in military campaigns; Hugh VI of Lusignan , Raymond IV of Toulouse , and Berenguer Ramon all took the Cross.
Her third husband Ramon had a son from a previous marriage, Pedro Ramon, who was his heir. Pedro apparently resented Almodis' influence and was concerned she was trying to replace him with her own two sons. He murdered her in October 1071. Pedro was disinherited and exiled for his crime, and fled the country. When his father died in 1076, Barcelona was split between Berenguer Ramon and Ramon Berenguer, Almodis' sons. The family history of murder did not end with Pedro Ramon, as Berenguer Ramon earned his nickname "The Fratricide " when he killed his own twin brother.
