Philip II, Marquis of Namur
Philip II( 1195 – 1226), called" à la lèvre", was the margrave of Namur from 1216 to his death.
He was the eldest son of Peter II of Courtenay and Yolanda of Flanders.
On the death of his maternal uncle Philip the Noble in 1212, her mother Yolanda temporarily reigned Namur and passed the crown to Philip in 1216.
His father Peter was chosen as Latin Emperor of Constantinople in 1216 and when he died in 1217, Philip refused to rule the empire when it was offered to him.
The Constantinople empire went to his brother Robert.
Philip had to fight the descendants of Henry IV of Luxembourg( as Henry I of Namur) who had not given up their claim to Namur.
He fought Waleran III of Limburg, husband of Ermesinda of Luxembourg, and concluded peace in March 1223 at Dinant.
In 1226, he partook in the Albigensian Crusade of Louis VIII of France and the siege of Avignon.
Philip died near Saint- Flour in the Auvergne.
He was unmarried and the margraviate went to his brother Henry.
Ramiro I of Aragon
Ramiro I (bef. 10078
May 1063) was the first King of Aragon from 1035 until his death.
Apparently born before 1007, he was the illegitimate son of Sancho III of Pamplona by his mistress Sancha of Aybar.
Ramiro was reputed to have been adopted by his father's wife Muniadona after he was the only one of his father's children to come to her aid when needed, although there is no surviving record of these events and the story is probably apocryphal.
During his father's reign, he appeared as witness of royal charters starting in 1011, and was given numerous properties in the county of Aragon, and by the division of Sancho's realm on the latter's death in 1035, the county of Aragon fell to Ramiro with the title of "baiulus" or steward.
This was part of what would prove to be a larger division: Navarre and the Basque country went to eldest half-brother García, the county of Castile was held by Ferdinand, while the counties of Sobrarbe and Ribagorza fell to Gonzalo and Ramiro received lands in Aragon to hold under García.
Ramiro's exact status is vague.
He was called king by his vassals, neighbors, the church and even his sons, yet he always referred to himself simply as "Ranimiro Sancioni regis filio"
(Ramiro, son of King Sancho).
Likewise, in his two wills, he refers to his lands as having been given him in stewardship: in the first by García, and in the second by God.
He is called "regulus" (rather than "rex" used for García) and "quasi pro rege" (acting as if king) in charters from Navarre.
Due to his growing independence and the small size of his Pyrenean holdings, he is sometimes called a "petty king", Aragon a "pocket kingdom".
Ramiro sought to enlarge his lands at the expense of both the Moors and his brother, García, the King of Navarre.
Shortly after the death of his father (the date variously placed from 1036 to 1043), he supported the emir of Tudela in an invasion of the Navarre.
While he was defeated in the Battle of Tafalla, he still was able to gain territory, including Sanguesa, and established a state of semi-autonomy.
In 1043, apparently with the approval of García, he annexed Sobrarbe and Ribagorza, previously held by his youngest legitimate half-brother, Gonzalo.
This union created a pseudo-independent Aragonese state, with its capital at Jaca, that would give rise to the Kingdom of Aragon.
Before he was married, Ramiro had a mistress named Amuña with whom he had a natural son, Sancho Ramírez, in whom he confided the government of the county of Ribagorza.
After annexation of Ribagorza and Sobrarbe, Ramiro began the advance from Aragon toward Huesca and Zaragossa.
The first charter for the royal town of Jaca is attributed to him.
It included well defined laws of protection even to non residents, and would set an example for urban rights until late in the Middle Ages.
Ramiro died at the Battle of Graus in 1063 while trying to take the city.
He was buried at the monastery of San Juan de la Peña, in Santa Cruz de la Serós.
Odon de Bénac
Odon de Bénac was an eleventh- century Catholic Bishop of Oloron in France.
The son of Count Raymond II of Bigorre, he was bishop from 1083 AD to 1101 AD.
Sancho Ramírez
Sancho Ramírez( 1042 – 4 June, 1094) was King of Aragon from 1063 until 1094 and King of Pamplona from 1076 under the name of Sancho V.
He was the eldest son of Ramiro I and Ermesinda of Bigorre.
His father was the first king of Aragon and an illegitimate son of Sancho III of Pamplona.
He inherited the Aragonese crown from his father in 1063.
Sancho Ramírez was chosen king of Pamplona by Navarrese noblemen after Sancho IV was murdered by his siblings.
Alice, Countess of Bigorre
Alice of Bigorre( 1217/1220-1255), also known as" Alice" or" Alix de Monfort" was" suo jure" ruling Countess of Bigorre between 1251 and 1255.
She was the eldest daughter of Petronilla, Countess of Bigorre and her third husband Guy de Monfort.
Alice was married twice during her lifetime and from her first marriage, she gained the title of" Lady of Chabanais".
Beatrice I of Bigorre
Beatrice I( French:" Béatrix I de Bigorre"; c. 1064 – after 14 October 1095) was a sovereign Countess of Bigorre from 1080 until 1095.
Ermesinda of Bigorre
Ermesinda of Bigorre
(Aragonese: "Ermisenda de Bigorra"), born Gerberga or Gisberga (1015 – 1 December 1049), was a Queen of Aragon, a daughter of Bernard-Roger, Count of Bigorre and his wife Garsenda, Heiress of Bigorre.
She was a member of the House of Foix, the sister of Bernard II, Count of Bigorre, Roger I, Count of Foix, and perhaps of Stephanie who married García Sánchez III of Navarre.
Gerberga married on 22 August 1036 to King Ramiro I of Aragon.
After her wedding Gerberga changed her name to Ermesinda.
The couple were married for thirteen years, in which time her husband elevated himself from a vassal holding scattered lands around Jaca into a "de facto" ruler of pocket-kingdom spanning the former counties of Aragon, Sobrarbe and Ribagorza, and is thereby credited with being the first King of Aragon.
They had the following children:
All of Ermesinda's children lived to adulthood.
She died on 1 December 1049 and she was buried at the Monastery of San Juan de la Peña.
Her husband remarried four years later to Agnes.
Petronilla, Countess of Bigorre
Petronilla of Bigorre or Petronilla of Comminges( 1184 – 1251) was ruling Countess of Bigorre between 1194 and 1251.
She was the only child of Bernard IV, Count of Comminges, and his wife Stephanie- Beatrice IV, Countess of Bigorre.
Petronilla succeeded her mother in 1194 as Countess of Bigorre; she was also Viscountess of Marsan and Nébouzan through further successions.
She reigned as countess for fifty- seven years, in which time she was married five times.
Eskivat de Chabanais
Eschivat IV Chabanais( died 1283) was Count of Bigorre from 1255 to 1283 and Count of Armagnac and de Fézensac of 1255 in 1256.
He was the son of Jordan, Lord of Chabanais, and Alix de Montfort, Countess of Bigorre.
Centule II, Count of Bigorre
Centule II( also" Centulle")( died 1129) was the Count of Bigorre from 1114 to his death.
He broke Bigorre's feudal connection with France and established bonds across the Pyrenees with Aragon.
He was also a major participant in the Crusades, fighting in the army of Raymond of Saint- Gilles, and the Reconquista.
He was the second son of Centule V of Béarn by his second wife, Beatrice I of Bigorre.
He succeeded his elder brother Bernard III's daughter Beatrice II.
His elder half- brother Gaston IV was the viscount of Béarn and the two maintained excellent fraternal relations, undertaking almost every military expedition jointly.
Between 1095 and 1101, the two half- brothers were absent from the south of France on the First Crusade.
While Gaston was one of the heroes of the Crusade and consequently finds mention in many chronicles, Centule had not yet succeeded his brother at that point and was a mere nobleman, without a fief.
In 1113, Bernard died and his successor, the heiress Beatrice, followed him to the grave the next year.
Centule, now armed with the forces of Bigorre behind him, joined Gaston in an alliance with Alfonso the Battler, King of Aragon and Navarre, on the successful expedition against Zaragoza in 1118.
For his part in the victory, Centule received a section of the city in fief of the king and twenty four villages in the Val d'Aran.
He participated in the conquest of Tudela in 1119 and in the great attack on Granada in 1125 – 1126.
In May 1122, he rendered homage to Alfonso, breaking his theoretical tie of vassalage to the Duchy of Aquitaine.
Centule married Estefania, daughter of Ramon Berenguer III, Count of Barcelona, and Dolça de Gévaudaun.
They had one daughter:
Centule died in 1129 and was succeeded by his daughter who was married to.
With this marriage she united the county of Bigorre and the viscounty of Marsan.
