To the Newsgroup
One person who I thought would have posted on Fernando and Jeanne's
marriage would have been John Carmi Parsons. He states in his book on
Eleanor of Castile on page 256 in a genealogical table that Jeanne's
maternal grandmother was Aalis dau of Louis VII by Constance of
Castile. Also on Page 8 he states this:
"Jeanne's marriage to the English King was a political liability for
the Capetians, but in the nobility of her descent she was still a
highly eligible candidate for matrimony, (Countess Marie's mother was a
daughteer of Louis VII by his second wife, Constance of Castile.)"
I would apperciate it if Mr. Parsons could tell the newsgroup what
his sources where for this.
Best Wishes,
