Jeanne of Dammartin or Joan of Dammartin (b. 1229 – d. Abbeville, March 16, 1279) Queen consort of Castile and León (1252), Countess of Ponthieu (1237-1279) and Montreuil.

She was daughter of Simon de Dammartin, Count of Ponthieu (1251-1276) and his wife Marie of Ponthieu, Countess of Montreuil (1221-1251). In 1237 she married in Burgos with King Ferdinand III of Castile and Leon (1198/1199-1252).

They had four sons and one daughter:

Ferdinand (1239–1269), Count of Aumale

Eleanor, married Edward I of England

Louis (1243–1269)

Simon (1244), died young and buried in a monastery in Toledo

John (1245), died young and buried at the cathedral in Córdoba

aka Joana, Joanna. Alternate birthdate 1208. Alternate deathplace Abbeville, France.

Question as to whether she was married to anyone apart from Fernando III or Jean (see below)

From http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/NORTHERN%20FRANCE.htm

JEANNE de Dammartin ([1220]-Abbeville 16 Mar 1279, bur monastery of Valoires). The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes names "Mariam…mater Joannæ Reginæ Castellæ et Legionis" as the daughter of "Comitis de Pontivo" and his wife "Adelodis" daughter of "Ludovico Regi Francorum" (and his wife "Elisabeth", an error for Constanza)[704]. 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"[705]. 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[706]. She succeeded her father as Ctss d‘Aumâle in 1239. She succeeded her mother in 1251 as Ctss de Ponthieu. She returned to France as a widow in 1253[707]. The primary source which confirms her second marriage has not yet been identified. The Continuator of Florence of Worcester records the death in 1279 of "regina Hispanie, domina Pontivi, mater Alienoræ reginæ Angliæ"[708]. m firstly (Burgos 1237 before 20 Nov) as his second wife, don FERNANDO III "el Santo" King of Castile, son of don ALFONSO IX King of León & his second wife Infanta doña Berenguela de Castilla (Monte de Valparaíso [30 Jul/5 Aug] 1201-Seville 30 May 1252, bur Seville, Cathedral Santa María). m secondly ([May 1260/9 Feb 1261]) JEAN de Nesle Seigneur de Falvy et de La Hérelle, son of --- (-2 Feb 1292).

Joan was the eldest daughter of Simon of Dammartin, Count of Ponthieu (1180- 21 September 1239) and his wife Marie of Ponthieu, Countess of Montreuil (17 April 1199- 1251). Her paternal grandparents were Alberic II, Count de Dammartin and Mahaut de Clermont, daughter of Renaud de Clermont, Count of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis, and Clémence de Bar.[2] Her maternal grandparents were William IV of Ponthieu and Alys, Countess of the Vexin, daughter of Louis VII of France and Constance of Castile.

In November 1235, Blanche of Castile's nephew, King Ferdinand III of Castile, lost his wife, Elisabeth of Hohenstaufen, and Blanche's sister Berengaria of Castile, Ferdinand's mother, was concerned that her widowed son might involve himself in liaisons that were unsuited to his dignity as king. Berengaria determined to find her son another wife, and her sister Blanche suggested the young Joan of Dammartin, whose marriage to the king of Castile would keep her inheritance from falling into hostile hands. In October 1237, at the age of about seventeen, Jeanne married in Burgos, King Ferdinand III of Castile and Leon (1201-1252).

They had four sons and one daughter:

[edit]Henry III of England

After secret negotiations were undertaken in 1234, it was agreed that Joan would marry King Henry III of England. This marriage would have been politically unacceptable to the French, however, since Joan stood to inherit not only her mother's county of Ponthieu but also the county of Aumale that was vested in her father's family. Ponthieu bordered on the duchy of Normandy, and Aumale lay within Normandy itself. The French king Philip Augustus had seized Normandy from King John of England as recently as 1205, and Philip's heirs could not risk the English monarchy recovering any land in that area, since it might allow the Plantagenets to re-establish control in Normandy. As it happened, Joan's father Simon had become involved in a conspiracy of northern French noblemen against Philip Augustus and to win pardon from Philip's son Louis VIII, Simon—who had only daughters—was compelled to promise that he would marry off neither of his two eldest daughters without the permission of the king of France. In 1235, the queen-regent of France, Blanche of Castile, invoked that promise on behalf of her son, King Louis IX of France, and threatened to deprive Simon of all his lands if Joan married Henry III. Henry therefore abandoned the project for his marriage to Joan and in January 1236 married Eleanor of Provence, the sister of Louis IX's wife.

[edit]Marriages and children

In November 1235, Blanche of Castile's nephew, King Ferdinand III of Castile, lost his wife, Elisabeth of Hohenstaufen, and Blanche's sister Berengaria of Castile, Ferdinand's mother, was concerned that her widowed son might involve himself in liaisons that were unsuited to his dignity as king. Berengaria determined to find her son another wife, and her sister Blanche suggested the young Joan of Dammartin, whose marriage to the king of Castile would keep her inheritance from falling into hostile hands. In October 1237, at the age of about seventeen, Joan married in Burgos, King Ferdinand III of Castile and Leon (1201-1252).

They had four sons and one daughter:

Ferdinand (1239–ca 1265)

Eleanor, married Edward I of England

Louis (1243–ca 1275)

Simon (1244), died young and buried in a monastery in Toledo

John (1245), died young and buried at the cathedral in Córdoba

Upon her mother's death in 1251, Joan succeeded to the titles of Countess of Ponthieu and Countess of Montreuil which she held in her own right.

After Ferdinand III died in 1252, Joan did not enjoy a cordial relationship with his heir, her stepson Alfonso X of Castile, with whom she quarreled over some of the lands and income she should have received as dowager queen of Castile. Sometime in 1253, she became the ally and supporter of another of her stepsons, Henry of Castile, who also felt Alfonso had not allowed him all the wealth their father had meant him to have. Joan unwisely attended secret meetings with Henry and his supporters, and it was rumored that she and Henry were lovers. This further strained her relations with Alfonso and in 1254, shortly before her daughter Eleanor was to marry Edward of England, Joan and her eldest son Ferdinand left Castile and returned to her native Ponthieu.

Sometime between May 1260 and 9 February 1261, Joan took a second husband, Jean de Nesle, Seigneur de Falvy et de La Hérelle (died 2 February 1292).[3] This marriage is sometimes said to have produced a daughter, Béatrice, but she was in fact a child of Jean de Nesle's first marriage. In 1263, Joan was recognized as countess of Aumale after the death of a childless Dammartin cousin. But her son Ferdinand died around 1265, leaving a young son known as John of Ponthieu.

During her marriage to Jean de Nesle, Joan ran up considerable debts and also appears to have allowed her rights as countess in Ponthieu to weaken. The death of her son Ferdinand made her next son, Louis, her heir in Ponthieu but around 1275 he, too, died, leaving two children. But according to inheritance customs in Picardy, where Ponthieu lay, Joan's young grandson John of Ponthieu could not succeed her there; her heir in Ponthieu automatically became her adult daughter Eleanor, who was married to Edward I of England. [citation needed] It does not appear that Joan was displeased at the prospect of having Ponthieu pass under English domination; from 1274 to 1278, in fact, she had her granddaughter Joan of Acre (the daughter of Edward I and Eleanor) with her in Ponthieu, and appears to have treated the girl so indulgently that when she was returned to England her parents found that she was thoroughly spoiled.

That same indulgent nature appears to have made Joan inattentive to her duties as countess. When she died in March 1279, her daughter and son-in-law were thus confronted with Joan's vast debts, and to prevent the king of France from involving himself in the county's affairs, they had to pay the debts quickly by taking out loans from citizens in Ponthieu and from wealthy abbeys in France. They also had to deal with a lengthy legal struggle with Eleanor's nephew, John of Ponthieu, to whom Joan bequeathed a great deal of land in Ponthieu as well as important legal rights connected with those estates. The dispute was resolved when John of Ponthieu was recognized as Joan's successor in Aumale according to the inheritance customs that prevailed in Normandy, while Edward and Eleanor retained Ponthieu and John gave up all his claims there. By using English wealth, Edward and Eleanor restored stability to the administration and the finances of Ponthieu, and added considerably to the comital estate by purchasing large amounts of land there.

Family

Joan was the eldest daughter of Simon of Dammartin, Count of Ponthieu (1180- 21 September 1239) and his wife Marie of Ponthieu, Countess of Montreuil (17 April 1199- 1251). Her paternal grandparents were Alberic II, Count de Dammartin and Mahaut de Clermont, daughter of Renaud de Clermont, Count of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis, and Clémence de Bar.

2. Eleanor, married Edward I of England

3. Louis (1243–ca 1275)

4. Simon (1244), died young and buried in a monastery in Toledo

Berengaria determined to find her son another wife, and her sister Blanche suggested the young Joan of Dammartin, whose marriage to the king of Castile would keep her inheritance from falling into hostile hands.[3] In October 1237, at the age of about seventeen, Joan married in Burgos, King Ferdinand III of Castile and Leon (1201-1252). Since Ferdinand already had seven sons from his first marriage to Elisabeth of Hohenstaufen, there was little chance of Ponthieu being absorbed by Castile.

They had four sons and one daughter:

Ferdinand (1239–ca 1265) m. (after 1256) Laure de Montfort, Lady of Espernon (d before 08.1270), and had issue: Eleanor, married Edward I of England and had issue Louis (1243–ca 1275)m. Juana de Manzanedo, Lady of Gaton, and had issue Simon (1244), died young and buried in a monastery in Toledo John (1245), died young and buried at the cathedral in Córdoba

She accompanied Ferdinand to Andalucia and lived with him in the army camp as he besieged Seville in 1248[4].

Upon her mother's death in 1251, Joan succeeded to the titles of Countess of Ponthieu and Countess of Montreuil which she held in her own right.

Sometime between May 1260 and 9 February 1261, Joan took a second husband, Jean de Nesle, Seigneur de Falvy et de La Hérelle (died 2 February 1292).[5] This marriage is sometimes said to have produced a daughter, Béatrice, but she was in fact a child of Jean de Nesle's first marriage. In 1263, Joan was recognized as countess of Aumale after the death of a childless Dammartin cousin. But her son Ferdinand died around 1265, leaving a young son known as John of Ponthieu.

During her marriage to Jean de Nesle, Joan ran up considerable debts and also appears to have allowed her rights as countess in Ponthieu to weaken. The death of her son Ferdinand made her next son, Louis, her heir in Ponthieu but around 1275 he, too, died, leaving two children. But according to inheritance customs in Picardy, where Ponthieu lay, Joan's young grandson John of Ponthieu could not succeed her there; her heir in Ponthieu automatically became her adult daughter Eleanor, who was married to Edward I of England.[citation needed] It does not appear that Joan was displeased at the prospect of having Ponthieu pass under English domination; from 1274 to 1278, in fact, she had her granddaughter Joan of Acre (the daughter of Edward I and Eleanor) with her in Ponthieu, and appears to have treated the girl so indulgently that when she was returned to England her parents found that she was thoroughly spoiled.

The County of Aumale, later elevated to a duchy, was a medieval fief in Normandy. It was disputed between England and France during parts of the Hundred Years' War.

The title was later re-created in 1547 for Francis, then styled Count of Aumale by courtesy. On his accession as Duke of Guise, he ceded it to his brother Claude, Duke of Aumale. It was later used as a title by Henri d'Orleans, the youngest son of Louis-Philippe, King of the French and Duc d'Orleans.

The present titleholder is a grandson of the late HRH Henri, Comte de Paris, Orleans heir, and his wife, HRH Isabelle d'Orleans-Braganza of Brazil. Prince Foulques Foulques d'Orleans, son of Jacques duc d'Orleans Jacques Jean Jaroslav Marie d'Orléans, Duc d'Orléans and the duchess, née Gersende de Ponteves Sabran, added it to his title of Comte d'Eu.

Aumale in the English peerage: Through the end of the Hundred Years' War, the kings of England at various times ruled Aumale, through their claims to be dukes of Normandy and later, kings of France. The title of Count or Duke of Aumale was granted several times during this period.

Earls of Aumale (1095): In 1196, Philip II of France captured the castle of Aumale, and granted the title of "Count of Aumale" to Renaud de Dammartin. However, despite Philip's conquest of Aumale (and, subsequently, the remainder of Normandy), the kings of England continued to claim the Duchy of Normandy, and to recognize the old line of Counts or Earls of Aumale. These were:

see above for Counts before 1196 Hawise of Aumale, 2nd Countess of Aumale (d. 1214), married, bef. 1196: Baldwin de Bethune (d. 1212), Count of Aumale jure uxoris William de Forz, 3rd Earl of Albemarle (d. 1242), son of the 2nd Countess by her second husband William de Forz William de Forz, 4th Earl of Albemarle (d. 1260), son of the 3rd Earl Thomas de Forz, 5th Earl of Albemarle (d. 1269), son of the 4th Earl Aveline de Forz, Countess of Albemarle (d. 1274), daughter of the 4th Earl Aveline married Edmund Crouchback, 1st Earl of Lancaster in 1269, but died without issue in 1274. A claim upon the inheritance by John de Eston (de Ashton) was settled in 1278 with the surrender of the title to the Crown.

[edit] Dukes of Aumale, first Creation (1385)also: Duke of Gloucester (1385–1397), Earl of Essex (1376–1397), Earl of Buckingham (1377) Thomas of Woodstock, 1st Duke of Gloucester (d. 1397), fifth son of Edward III, was created Duke of Aumale by writ of summons on 3 September 1385, but was also made Duke of Gloucester very soon after, and seems never to have used the former title. It was almost certainly forfeit upon his murder while awaiting trial for treason. [edit] Dukes of Aumale, second Creation (1397)also: Duke of York (1385), Earl of Cambridge (1362–1414), Earl of Rutland (1390–1402), Earl of Cork (c. 1396) Edward of Norwich, 1st Earl of Rutland (d. 1415), first son of Edmund of Langley, 1st Duke of York (himself fourth son of Edward III), was created Duke of Aumale shortly after Woodstock's murder, but was deprived of the title by Henry IV Bolingbroke in 1399. [edit] Earls of Aumale (1412)also: Duke of Clarence (1412) Thomas of Lancaster, 1st Duke of Clarence (1387–1421), second son of Henry IV Bolingbroke, was created Earl of Aumale along with his dukedom of Clarence, and carried both titles until his death without issue. [edit] Counts of Aumale (1422)also: Earl of Warwick (1088) Richard de Beauchamp, 13th Earl of Warwick (1382–1439), military commander under Henry V in France, was created Earl of Aumale for life only. In further creations in the English peerage after the Hundred Years' War, Aumale was spelled Albemarle. For these, see Duke of Albemarle and Earl of Albemarle.

Joan of Dammartin (French: Jeanne de Dammartin; c.1220 – d. Abbeville,France March 16, 1279) was Queen consort of Castile and León (1252), suo jure Countess of Ponthieu (1251–1279) and Aumale (1237–1279). Her daughter, the English queen Eleanor of Castile, was her successor in Ponthieu. Her son and co-ruler in Aumale, Ferdinand II, Count of Aumale, predeceased her, so she was succeeded by her grandson John I, Count of Aumale, deceased at the Battle of Courtrai, 11 July 1302. Joan was the eldest daughter of Simon of Dammartin, Count of Ponthieu (1180- 21 September 1239) and his wife Marie of Ponthieu, Countess of Montreuil (17 April 1199- 1251). Her paternal grandparents were Alberic II, Count de Dammartin and Mahaut de Clermont, daughter of Renaud de Clermont, Count of Clermont-en-Beauvaisis, and Clémence de Bar. Her maternal grandparents were William IV of Ponthieu and Alys, Countess of the Vexin, daughter of Louis VII of France and Constance of Castile. After secret negotiations were undertaken in 1234, it was agreed that Joan would marry King Henry III of England. This marriage would have been politically unacceptable to the French, however, since Joan stood to inherit not only her mother's county of Ponthieu but also the county of Aumale that was vested in her father's family. Ponthieu bordered on the duchy of Normandy, and Aumale lay within Normandy itself. The French king Philip Augustus had seized Normandy from King John of England as recently as 1205, and Philip's heirs could not risk the English monarchy recovering any land in that area, since it might allow the Plantagenets to re-establish control in Normandy. As it happened, Joan's father Simon had become involved in a conspiracy of northern French noblemen against Philip Augustus and to win pardon from Philip's son Louis VIII, Simon—who had only daughters—was compelled to promise that he would marry off neither of his two eldest daughters without the permission of the king of France. In 1235, the queen-regent of France, Blanche of Castile, invoked that promise on behalf of her son, King Louis IX of France, and threatened to deprive Simon of all his lands if Joan married Henry III. Henry therefore abandoned the project for his marriage to Joan and in January 1236 married instead Eleanor of Provence, the sister of Louis IX's wife. Queen of Castile: In November 1235, Blanche of Castile's nephew, King Ferdinand III of Castile, lost his wife, Elisabeth of Hohenstaufen, and Blanche's sister Berengaria of Castile, Ferdinand's mother, was concerned that her widowed son might involve himself in liaisons that were unsuited to his dignity as king. Berengaria determined to find Ferdinand another wife, and her sister Blanche suggested Joan of Dammartin, whose marriage to the king of Castile would keep her inheritance from falling into hostile hands. In October 1237, at the age of about seventeen, Joan and Ferdinand were married in Burgos, Spain. Since Ferdinand already had seven sons from his first marriage to Elisabeth of Hohenstaufen, there was little chance of Ponthieu being absorbed by Castile. They had four sons and one daughter: 1.Ferdinand II, Count of Aumale (1239–ca 1265) m. (after 1256) Laure de Montfort, Lady of Espernon (d before 08.1270), and had issue: 2.Eleanor of Castile, Countess of Ponthieu, who married king Edward I of England and had issue 3.Louis (1243–ca 1275), who married Juana de Manzanedo, Lady of Gaton, and had issue 4.Simon (1244), died young and buried in a monastery in Toledo 5.John (1245), died young and buried at the cathedral in Córdoba She accompanied Ferdinand to Andalucia and lived with him in the army camp as he besieged Seville in 1248. Upon her mother's death in 1251, Joan succeeded as Countess of Ponthieu and Montreuil, which she held in her own right. After Ferdinand III died in 1252, Joan did not enjoy a cordial relationship with his heir, her stepson Alfonso X of Castile, with whom she quarreled over the lands and income she should have received as dowager queen of Castile. Sometime in 1253, she became the ally and supporter of another of her stepsons, Fadrique of Castile, who also felt Alfonso had not allowed him all the wealth their father had meant him to have. Joan unwisely attended secret meetings with Henry and his supporters, and it was rumored that she and Fadrique were lovers. This further strained her relations with Alfonso and in 1254, shortly before her daughter Eleanor was to marry Edward of England, Joan and her eldest son Ferdinand left Castile and returned to her native Ponthieu. Rule in Ponthieu and Aumale: Sometime between May 1260 and 9 February 1261, Joan took a second husband, Jean de Nesle, Seigneur de Falvy et de La Hérelle (died 2 February 1292). This marriage is sometimes said to have produced a daughter, Béatrice, but she was in fact a child of Jean de Nesle's first marriage. In 1263, Joan was recognized as countess of Aumale after the death of a childless Dammartin cousin. But her son Ferdinand died around 1265, leaving a young son known as John of Ponthieu. During her marriage to Jean de Nesle, Joan ran up considerable debts and also appears to have allowed her rights as countess in Ponthieu to weaken. The death of her son Ferdinand in 1265 made her next son, Louis, her heir in Ponthieu but around 1275 he, too, died, leaving two children. But according to inheritance customs in Picardy, where Ponthieu lay, Joan's young grandson John of Ponthieu could not succeed her there; her heir in Ponthieu automatically became her adult daughter Eleanor, who was married to Edward I of England.[6] It does not appear that Joan was displeased at the prospect of having Ponthieu pass under English domination; from 1274 to 1278, in fact, she had her granddaughter Joan of Acre (the daughter of Edward I and Eleanor) with her in Ponthieu, and appears to have treated the girl so indulgently that when she was returned to England her parents found that she was thoroughly spoiled. That same indulgent nature appears to have made Joan inattentive to her duties as countess. When she died in March 1279, her daughter and son-in-law were thus confronted with Joan's vast debts, and to prevent the king of France from involving himself in the county's affairs, they had to pay the debts quickly by taking out loans from citizens in Ponthieu and from wealthy abbeys in France. They also had to deal with a lengthy legal struggle with Eleanor's nephew, John of Ponthieu, to whom Joan bequeathed a great deal of land in Ponthieu as well as important legal rights connected with those estates. The dispute was resolved when John of Ponthieu was recognized as Joan's successor in Aumale according to the inheritance customs that prevailed in Normandy, while Edward and Eleanor retained Ponthieu and John gave up all his claims there. By using English wealth, Edward and Eleanor restored stability to the administration and the finances of Ponthieu, and added considerably to the comital estate by purchasing large amounts of land there.

Biografía

En 1237 se casó en la ciudad de Burgos con Fernando III el Santo,1 rey de Castilla y León, viudo de su primera esposa, Beatriz de Suabia. Fue elegida como esposa del monarca por su madre, la reina Berenguela, gracias a la mediación de su hermana Blanca, reina de Francia.1 Los monarcas franceses acordaron con los Dammartín que no casarían a ninguno de sus hijos sin el consentimiento real. La reina Blanca se enteró del interés de Enrique III de Inglaterra por casarse con Juana de Dammartín, e hizo la propuesta a su hermana, pues no quería una alianza entre los Dammartín y sus enemigos ingleses. El 31 de agosto de 1237, Berenguela y su hermana Blanca obtuvieron la dispensa papal para el matrimonio del rey Fernando y Juana, ya que ambos estaban emparentados por descender del rey Alfonso VII de León.1 Según el contrato de matrimonio, el condado de Ponthieu, que Juana al final heredó en 1256, permanecería en Francia.2 En 1247 o principios de 1248, su esposo el rey Fernando le concedió el señorío de Carmona a título personal y en mayo de 1248 la reina hizo una donación de de tierras y casas en Carmona a la Orden de Calatrava.3 que fue recuperado por la corona a la muerte del rey en 1253.

Juana falleció en la ciudad de Abbeville el 16 de marzo de 1279.

Afonso I "the Conqueror" Henriques, King of Portugal

Son of Henrique de Borgonha, conde de Portugal and Teresa de Leão, condessa de Portugal

Afonso Henriques ( 1106 , 1109 or 1111 - 6 of December of 1185 ), also called Alfonso I , and nicknamed the "Conqueror", was the first King of Portugal . He became the "King of the Portuguese" from 1140 and reigned de jure from October 5, 1143, with the celebration of the Treaty of Zamora , until his death. [ 1 ] His role as sovereign is granted with the Pontifical Bull Manifestis Probatum of May 23, 1179. [ 2 ]Previously he was Count of Portucale , from 1112 until his independence from the Kingdom of Leon . He was Henrique's son , Count de Portucale and his wife Teresa de Leão , who, upon Count Henrique's death, "quickly ascends to the county government, which confirms the hereditary character that he had".

Project MedLands, Portugal

AFONSO Henriquez, son of HENRIQUE Conde de Portugal & his wife Teresa de Castilla y León (Guimaraes 25 Jul [1106/12]-Coimbra 6 Dec 1185, bur Coimbra, Church of the Cross). The Chronicon Regum Legionensium names (in order) "Urraca, Elvira and Afonso" as the children of Count Henrique & his wife[53]. The year in which Afonso was born is uncertain. Barbosa quotes a document dated “XVII Kal Oct” in 1173 which records the transfer of the body of San Vicente which states “Regni autem regis Alfonsi 45 vitæ vero eiusdem 67”, which would place his birth in 1106, and another document dated “era 1222” [1184] which records the death of “Rex Portugallensium doñus Alfonsus año vitæ suæ 78”[54]. The former would place his birth in [1106], and the latter in [1107/08] assuming that Alfonso´s death can be dated to 1185. Brandaõ quotes a breviary from Alcobaça which records the birth “era 1147” [1109] of “Aldefonsus primus rex Portugaliæ, filius comitis Henrici”, a manuscript about the works of San Fulgencio which records events in “era 1186 [1148]...37 ætatis annum et regni 19” [1110/11], and a historia dos Godos which records “era 1163 [1125] Infans Alfonsus Henrici comitis filius ætatis anno 14” [1111][55]. The Chronicon Lusitanum records the birth in 1151 (1113) of “Infans Alfonsus Comitis Henrici et Reginæ D. Tarasiæ filius, Regis D. Alfonsi nepos”[56], although a posthumous birth would probably have been noted. As can be seen, the full range of years from 1106 to 1112 is covered by these various contradictory sources. There appears no way of deciding which is more accurate than the others, although Brandaõ suggests that 1110 is correct. He succeeded his father in 1112 as AFONSO I Conde de Portugal. "…Infanta dna Sancia, Infans dns Adefonsus regis consanguineus…" subscribed the charter dated 13 Nov 1127 under which King Alfonso VII donated "el castillo de San Jorge en la Sierra del Pindo" to Santiago de Compostela[57]. It is probable that the second subscriber was Afonso de Portugal. Ruling through his mother, he overthrew and expelled her from Portugal in 1128. In 1135 he refused to swear homage to Alfonso VII King of Castile, from that time using the title 'Prince of Portugal'. He moved his capital to Coimbra. In 1139 he won a notable victory against the Muslims in Santarem who were reduced to tributary status. He proclaimed himself AFONSO I "the Conqueror" King of Portugal in 1139. His establishment of the archbishopric of Braga gave Portugal ecclesiastical independence. “Alfonsus, Portugaliæ rex, comitis Henrici et reginæ Theresiæ filius, magni quoque regis Alfonsi nepos…cum uxore mea regina donna Malfada, filia comitis Amedei de Moriana” confirmed donations to La Charité-sur-Loire by his father by charter dated Jul 1145[58]. He swore allegiance to the Pope, although Papal recognition of his title of king of Portugal was only given in 1179. He expanded his territory to the south, capturing Lisbon in 1147 with the help of a force of English, French and Flemish crusaders[59]. The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes records that "Aldefonsus" was buried "Coimbræ in Monasterio S. Crucis"[60]. The Chronicon Conimbricensi records the death “VIII Id Dec” in [1185] of “Rex Ildefonsus Portugalensis”[61]. married ([Jan/Jun] 1146) MATHILDE de Savoie, daughter of AMEDEE III Comte de Maurienne et de Savoie & his first wife Adélaïde --- ([1125]-Coimbra 4 Nov 1157, bur Coimbra, Church of the Cross). The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines refers to the wife of "Aldefonsus rex Portugallie" as "filia comitis Sabaudie" but does not name her[62]. The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes records the marriage of "Aldefonsum" and "Mafaldam filiam Comitis Maurienæ"[63]. The Chronicon Lusitanum records the marriage in 1183 (1145) of “Rex Donnus Alfonsus” and “Donnam Matildam, Comitis Amadæi de Moriana filiam”, adding that they had three sons, of whom two died young, and three daughters[64]. Brandaõ quotes a charter of the king dated 1146 which records “anno...quo duxeramt Mahaldam” and a charter dated Jul 1146 in which he records a donation “cum uxore mea Regina Dona Mafalda”[65]. Her origin was evidently not widely known in Portugal, as a Chronica Breve records that King Alfonso I married "dona Maffalda Manrique, filha do conde dom Manrrique de Lara e senhor de Mollina e de dona Ermesenda filha do Almerique primeiro senhor de Barbona"[66]. She was known as dona MAFALDA in Portugal. “Alfonsus, Portugaliæ rex, comitis Henrici et reginæ Theresiæ filius, magni quoque regis Alfonsi nepos…cum uxore mea regina donna Malfada, filia comitis Amedei de Moriana” confirmed donations to La Charité-sur-Loire by his father by charter dated Jul 1145[67]. The Chronicon Lusitanum records the death “III Non Dec” in 1196 (1158) of “Regina D. Matilda…Comitis Amadæi filia, uxor D. Alfonsi Portugallensium Regis”[68]. Mistress (1): ELVIRA Gualtar, daughter of ---. The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Elvira Gualtar" as the mother of "D. Urraca Alonso, D. Teresa Alonso" daughters of "D. Alonso Enriquez"[69].

King Afonso I & his wife MATHILDE de Savoie had seven children:

1. Infante dom HENRIQUE de Portugal (5 Mar 1147-[before 1156]). Brandaõ quotes a manuscript about the works of San Fulgencio in the archives of Alcobaça which records the birth “III Non [Mar]” of “primogenitus...Henricus filius”, which from the context refers to March 1147[70].

2. Infanta dona MAFALDA de Portugal ([1149]-[1173/74]). A Chronica Breve names "dona Mafalda" first among the daughters of King Afonso I, adding that she married "comde Reymon de Barcelona" (although this source is inaccurate in other details)[71]. Betrothed ([30 Jan 1160]) to RAMÓN de Barcelona, Infante de Aragón, son of RAMÓN BERENGUER IV Conde de Barcelona & Petronilla Queen of Aragon (Villamayor del Valle, Huesca 1/25 Mar 1157-Perpignan 25 Apr 1195, bur Poblet, monastery of Nuestra Señora), who succeeded his father in 1162 as Conde de Barcelona and his mother in 1174 as don ALFONSO II King of Aragon.

3. Infanta dona URRACA de Portugal ([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"[72]. 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)[73]. 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[74]. "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…"[75]. 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"[76]. Lucas de Tuy records that "Rex Fernandus" repudiated "uxorem suam Urracam filiam Regis Adefonsi, eo quod erat consanguinea eius propinquo gradu"[77]. married ([May/Jun] 1165, repudiated [Feb 1171/1172]) as his first wife, FERNANDO II King of 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).

4. Infanta dona SANCHA de Portugal ([1152/53]-14 Feb). Sousa says that the necrology of Santa Cruz de Coimbra records the death “14 Feb” of “Infanta D. Sancha” daughter of King Afonso I but does not quote the original text or give the precise citation reference[78].

5. Infante dom SANCHO Martino de Portugal (Coimbra 11 Nov 1154-Coimbra 26 Mar 1212, bur Coimbra, Church of the Cross). The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes names "Sancium et Urracam…et aliam filiam…Tarasia" as the children of "Aldefonsum" & his wife[79]. He succeeded his father in 1185 as SANCHO I “o Poblador” King of Portugal.

6. Infante dom JOÃO ([1156]-25 Aug ). Brandaõ quotes the necrology of Santa Cruz de Coimbra which records the death “VIII Kal Sep” of “Ioannes infans donni Alfonsi regis Portugalliæ et donnæ Mafaldæ reginæ filius”[80].

7. Infanta dona TERESA de Portugal ([1157]-drowned off Furnes, Flanders 6 May 1218, bur Abbaye de Clairvaux, Jura). The De Rebus Hispaniæ of Rodericus Ximenes names "Sancium et Urracam…et aliam filiam…Tarasia" as the children of "Aldefonsum" & his wife, specifying that Teresa married "Philippo Comiti Flandriæ et Hannoniæ" and died childless[81]. The Chronicon Lusitanum records that “D. Tarasiam” daughter of “Rex Donnus Alfonsus” and his wife “Donnam Matildam, Comitis Amadæi de Moriana filiam” married “Consuli Flandrensium D”[82]. Known as TERESA from birth, she adopted the name MAFALDA in [1173/74] after the death of her older sister of that name, and was later known as MATHILDE. Senhora de Montemayor el Viejo e Ourem. The Flandria Generosa specifies that on her (first) marriage she was given "Insulam et Duacum et plures…villas…iacentes, Caslethuin, Watenes, Bergas, Burburgium, totamque maritimmam regionem"[83]. The Flandria Generosa names "Mathildis regine Portusequalis" as wife of Count Philippe, specifying that she arranged the repatriation of her husband's body to "Claramvallem"[84]. After the death of her husband, she received her widow's portion in southern and coastal Flanders but increased taxes so much that she provoked rebellions at Veurne [Furnes] and the castellany of Bourbourg[85]. A charter dated 1195 records an agreement between the French king and "M. regina comitissa Flandrie" which records that the latter promised not to remarry after separating from "Odone duce Burgundie"[86]. The Flandria Generosa records that she was "amita" of "Fernando filio regis Portusequalis" and instrumental in arranging his marriage to her first husband's great-niece Jeanne Ctss of Flanders[87]. The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines records the death in 1218 of "comitissa vetus de Flandria relicta comitis Philippi" and her burial next to her husband at Clairvaux[88]. She died when her carriage accidentally fell into a marsh near Furnes[89]. married firstly (Aug 1183) as his second wife, PHILIPPE Count of Flanders, son of THIERRY I Count of Flanders & his second wife Sibylle d'Anjou (-Acre 1 Jul 1191, bur Abbaye de Clairvaux, Jura). married secondly (1193, divorced on grounds of consanguinity 1195) as his first wife, EUDES III Duke of Burgundy, son of HUGUES III Duke of Burgundy & his first wife Alix de Lorraine (1166-Lyon 6 Jul 1218, bur Abbaye de Cîteaux).

King Afonso I had [two] illegitimate children by Mistress (1): ELVIRA Gualtar

8. URRACA Afonso de Portugal The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Elvira Gualtar" as the mother of "D. Urraca Alonso, D. Teresa Alonso" daughters of "D. Alonso Enriquez"[90]. The Livro Velho records that "Pero Affonso", son of "D. Moço Veegas", married "D. Urraca Affonso filha d´elrey D. Afonso o primeiro…e de Eluira Gualter"[91]. Salazar y Castro records her marriage, adding that she was the sister of Sancho II (presumably an error for Sancho I) King of Portugal and that the couple´s daughter married don Pedro Rodríguez Girón (see the document CASTILE NOBILITY)[92]. married PEDRO Afonso, son of AFONSO Egas "Moço" de Riba Douro & his wife doña Aldara [Ilduara] Pérez de Traba.

9. [TERESA Afonso de Portugal The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos names "D. Elvira Gualtar" as the mother of "D. Urraca Alonso, D. Teresa Alonso" daughters of "D. Alonso Enriquez", and in a later passage records that “D. Fernan Mendez el Bravo Bragançon” married “D. Teresa Alonso”, adding that the king separated her from her previous husband “don Sancho Nuñez” with whom he had fought, and that she brought “la tierra de Bragança” to her second husband but that it reverted to the crown because she died childless[93]. As discussed more fully above, this passage echoes the marriages of the sisters of King Afonso I and is probably inaccurate as written. It is not known whether this also means that the king´s illegitimate daughter named Teresa never existed.]

King Afonso I had three illegitimate children by unknown mistresses:

10. FERNANDO Afonso de Portugal (-after Aug 1172). The Livro Velho names "D. Fernando Affonso" as the son of King Alfonso I by "D. Chamoa", daughter of "el conde D. Gomes de Pombeiro" and his wife "filha del conde D. Pero Peres de Trava", and wife of "D. Payo Soares, filho de D. Soeiro Mendes o bom e de D. Gontroude Moniz que era filha del conde D. Monio de Biscaya"[94]. Brandaõ quotes a charter dated 1166 for Santa Cruz de Coimbra which records a donation confirmed by King Alfonso I and “Fernandus Alfonsi filius eius, Comes Velascus filius sororis eius...”[95]. Alferes 1166-69.

11. PEDRO Afonso de Portugal (-after May 1206, bur Cistercian monastery of Santa Maria de Alcobaça). Maestre of the Order of Aviz: “...Petrus proles Regis Par Francorum et Magister novæ militiæ...” subscribed the charter dated 1162 issued by the Cistercians which confirmed the rules of the Order of Aviz, in the presence of “regis Aldephonsi” donated “loco illo...Avis” to its monks by charter[96]. “Petrus Alfonsi filius magni regis Alfonsi Portugalliæ” donated property near “villa de Tomar” to the abbot of Alcobaça by charter dated May 1206[97]. Monk in monastery of Alcobaça 1206.

12. AFONSO Afonso de Portugal (-Santarem 1 Mar 1207, bur São João Santarem). Brandaõ says that he was an illegitimate son of King Afonso I but does not quote the primary source which confirms this statement[98]. The primary source which confirms his parentage has not yet been identified. Knight of the Order of St John of Jerusalem 1194. Grand Master of the Order of St John of Jerusalem 1202-04. Sousa quotes an epitaph at São João de Santarem which records the death “Era 1235 Kal Mar” of “Alphonsus magister Hospitalis Hierusalem”[99].

Afonso Henriques King of Portugal, by Wikipedia

After the death of his father in 1112, Afonso took a political position opposite to that of his mother, who had allied herself with the Galician nobleman Fernão Peres de Trava . Intending to ensure the dominance of the county, he became a knight and after defeating his mother in the battle of São Mamede , in 1128, he assumed the government. [ 4 ] He then concentrated his efforts on obtaining recognition as a kingdom. In 1139, after the victory in the battle of Ourique against a Moorish contingent, D. Afonso Henriques proclaimed himself from 1140 King of the Portuguese with the support of his followers, being recognized his independence from the Kingdom of Leão with the Treaty of Zamora . The Portuguese independence was granted in 1179 by Pope Alexander III , through the bull Manifestis Probatum and awarded the title of rex (king). [ 4 ]

With the support of Crusaders from Northern Europe, he conquered Lisbon in 1147 . With the internal pacification, the conquests to the Moors continued , pushing the borders to the south, from Leiria to the Alentejo , more than doubling the territory he had inherited. The Muslims called it ibne Arrique ("son of Henry", literal translation of the patronymic Henriques ) [ 5 ] or Bortucali ("the Portuguese").

First Years

Afonso Henriques was the son of D. Henrique de Borgonha who was the grandson of King Roberto II of France and D. Teresa, Infanta de Leão , illegitimate daughter of King Afonso VI de Leão and Castile , to whom Afonso VI donated the county of Portucale for wedding. The date and place of your birth are not unambiguously determined. Nowadays, the date with the greatest consensus points to the summer of 1109. Some authors defend Viseu as the birthplace of D. Afonso Henriques, given that the mother is documented in this village around this year, [ 6 ] and still the probability of being born in August [ 7 ][ 8 ] while other authors, based on documents dating back tothe 13th century,refer to the date of 25 July of the same year. However, other dates and places for the birth of the first king of Portugal have already been defended, such as the year 1106 or 1111 (hypothesis advanced byAlexandre Herculanoafter his reading of the "Crónica dos Godos"). [ 9 ] Traditionally, it is believed that he was born and raised inGuimarães, where he lived until 1128. [ note 1 ] Other authors also refer toCoimbraas a likely place for his birth. [ 11 ] [12 ] [ 13 ]

The Education of the Infant

Afonso was handed over by his parents, as proof of confidence, to a powerful magnate, Egas Moniz IV from Ribadouro , who was supposed to educate him. Egas Moniz welcomed Afonso on his farms in Cresconhe and Britiande , [ 14 ] receiving, for this task, the epithet O Aio . There is even speculation about the possibility that he was actually the son of his master. [ 15 ] [ note 2 ]

The infant was growing in age and good nature due to the education of Egas Moniz. The medieval nobility of Count D. Pedro , when referring to Lourenço , Egas' firstborn son, does not fail to mention that this Lourenço Viegas was the one who loved King Afonso, first king of Portugal, very much, he only called him brother. , because his father Egas Moniz had created him , highlighting the intimacy and affection he enjoyed on the part of Afonso Henriques. [ 17 ] The creation of Afonso Henriques was also a probable reason for Afonso , Aio's second son, who also grew up with the infant and was probably younger than him, to become precisely known as O Moçoto distinguish him from Afonso Henriques.

Political context of the Portucalense County, 1112-1127

Teresa de Leão, mother of Afonso Henriques, queen countess of Portugal, represented in a manuscript of the Galician monastery of Toxosoutos Afonso had been orphaned by a father when he was only three years old (probably because the date of birth is disputed). In fact, the infant's father died in Astorga , on May 12, 1112. As a natural successor to her husband and her co-governor since her creation in 1096, Teresa commanded the destinies of the Portucalense County alone. One of his most important ambitions was to see his status recognized as a legitimate heir to his father, Afonso VI de Leão and Castile (as, moreover, his sister Urraca de Leão and Castile ). For that, he revolted several times against his sister and undertook great conquests to the east, even reaching the title of Queen of Portugal , in his own right, from 1116 onwards, being recognized as such by thePope Paschal II , for his sister, Urraca de Leão and, later, for his nephew Afonso VII de Leão . He even signed as Ego regina Taresia de Portugal regis Ildefonssis filia . [ 19 ] [ 20 ]

However, due to Urraca de Leão's death in 1126, Afonso VII succeeds him on the throne , who reopens the title of emperor of all his grandfather's Hispania , thus seeking the vassalage of the remaining peninsular states, including among them the Portucalense County , which has long demonstrated autonomist tendencies.

In the County, the entry of two brothers, Galician magnates, Bermudo Peres de Trava and Fernão Peres de Trava , would disturb the already fragile stability that Teresa had managed to promote. They would probably be interventionists of the Galician leaders Pedro Froilaz de Trava (father of the two magnates) and Diego Gelmírez, Archbishop of Santiago , who were interested in stopping the action of the Queen of Portugal, who, if he had fought so far ferociously, began to let himself tangle in the ruse. [ 14 ]In fact, the influence that the Trava brothers had on the queen of Portugal was strong enough to even remove Afonso Henriques' aide from his government positions in important cities like Coimbra and Lamego , which are handed over to the Galicians.

The First Incitements to the Revolt, 1120-1128

It is understandable in this way that Egas Moniz began not to look favorably on the two Galicians, much less the bad government that Teresa was beginning to lead: Fernão Peres de Trava even appeared in the documentation as a prince consort (which he was not). Thus, as one of the main victims of the bad decisions that the queen was beginning to make, he was responsible for the first tumultuous agitations of the nobility. This submission by Teresa led Egas Moniz, head of the restless Portuguese nobility and guardian of the future of Portugal, now threatened, in the person of the infant, to place all hopes on his protégé.

Probably by this time, Afonso may have started to notice something different in his educator, who was probably informing him of the growing problems facing the county court. Often he must have painted the subjection in which Portugal was retreating on the path of almost achieved liberation, the increasing dependence of the Galicians to which Portugal was subject in the person of its queen. The infant that Egas had created and now incited to revolt, despite his still young age, was thus also affected by the coming of the Galician magnates, who came to be presented to him as his enemies and those who most threatened his inheritance.

Around 1120, at about eleven years old, Afonso left the patios of his Aio to join the court, where he confirmed documentation with his mother until 1127, in a higher position than Fernão Peres de Trava . [ 21 ]

With the increased influence of the Archbishop of Braga D. Paio Mendes , Afonso took, probably for the first time, a political position opposite to that of his mother, increasingly influenced by the Travas , who intended to take the sovereignty of the Galician-Portuguese space. The archbishop, forced to leave the Shire, took the infant with him. On the day of Pentecost 1125, a knight was armed in the Cathedral of Zamora . [ 22 ]

Afonso Henriques showed his rebellion against his mother more openly from the beginning of December 1127, in the couto letter to the chapel of S. Vicente de Fragoso; in May of the following year, Egas Moniz again supports his pupil's new rebellions (such as the charter to Constantim de Panoias, and perhaps the donation of Dornelas to the Order of the Hospital ), having previously, as a result of the delicate situations of the rebels, taken the pupil to feigned reconciliations with the mother.

Final Periodː the Regency of the Children, 1169-1185

After the Siege of Badajoz of 1169, in which Afonso would have been seriously affected as a result of a wound in his leg [ 4 ], a regency council was established to govern on behalf of the disabled king. The regency was in charge of the king's sons who were still in the kingdom at that time: the infants Sancho and Teresa de Portugal . It also appears quite frequently in the documentation of this time, with them, a bastard, who acquired here a status equivalent to that of a legitimate infant: Fernando Afonso. Despite being Sancho the head of the regency, several confirmations of him still in life by Afonso Henriques denounce the strong presence of this bastard and the desire, on the part of the court nobility, to render Fernando unusable and consolidate the regency of Sancho. [ 44 ] In September 1172 Fernando began to serve the regent, according to a donation to Monsanto on that date, in which Afonso I suggested for the first time a female succession in Teresa. [ 45 ] As of 1173, Afonso Henriques seems to partially realize this possibility by handing over the joint regency of the kingdom to Sancho and Teresa, declaring them joint heirs and with their own home. [ 46 ]

Afonso Henriques would dedicate himself to helping his children, probably even more Teresa, in the area of territorial administration. However, and despite the fact that his military career ended, the prestige and authority he had attained remained unscathed.

From 1174 onwards, Afonso definitively distanced himself from the affairs of the kingdom, most likely due to illness, the role of the corregentes being even more prominent. Teresa and Sancho shared the governmentː Teresa performed administrative functions and Sancho took care of the war activity. Corregência would remain in place until 1184, when Flemish emissaries from Philip, Count of Flanders , came to obtain consent from Sancho for Teresa's marriage to him. Before leaving, Teresa made an agreement with Sancho to leave him as the only successor.

Death and Legacy

Tomb of Afonso Henriques at the Santa Cruz Monastery in Coimbra Afonso died on December 6, 1185, at his residence in Coimbra . He was 76 years old, and the cause of death is still not currently consensual, and may be associated with heart problems, senility , atherosclerosis or cirrhosis . [ 50 ] His tomb is in the Monastery of Santa Cruz , in Coimbra , in front of what would become the tomb of his son Sancho .
