Any chance of spelling out this family a little more?

Subject: Lara family
I just stumbled across a doctoral thesis on the Laras during the 11th
to 13th centuries, which includes a detailed discussion of the various
sources and historical tradition regarding the origins of the family.
The author spends many pages talking about the modern theories
regarding the family, and concludes that the first counts, Pedro and
Rodrigo Gonzalez, were maternal grandchildren of Nuno Alvarez by Maria
Gutierrez, a descendant of Alfonso Betotez. He traces the paternal
line to a count Munio Gonzalez, who he identifies as paternal uncle of
count Gonzalo Salvadorez, and seems favorably disposed to a descent
from Count Garcia Fernandez of Castille.

He also includes a detailed discussion of the children and claimed
children of each generation.
