Guillem II de Montcada
Guillem Ramon de Moncada or Guillermo II de Bearn was, from 1224 until his death in 1229, Lord of Montcada and Castellví de Rosanes (in Catalonia) and, as Guillermo II, Viscount of Bearn, of Marsan, of Gabardan and of Brulhois (in the southwest of present-day France). He was the son of Guillem Ramon de Montcada and Guilleuma de Castellvell. The main thrust of his policy was the affairs of the Aragonese court, in which several families vied for influence over the young King James I. In particular, he was involved in the preparation for the  invasion of the Balearic islands. In his last visit to Bearn, in February 1228, he promised the representative of the King of England that he would pay the latter homage throughout his lands in Aquitaine (Bearn, Gabardan, Brulhois and Captieux). This act marked the departure of Bearn from within the Aragonese domain and the start of its progressive submission to England. Back in Catalonia, he played a leading role in the council held in Salou which planned the conquest of Majorca. In September 1229 the fleet left for Majorca, with Guillermo commanding the first ship. The troops having landed, they  engaged in the battle of Portopí, thus beginning the conquest of Majorca. The crew had faced little difficulty when they landed on the 12 September. However, Guillermo was killed, along with eight knights of his family, including his nephew Ramon de Moncada in the Sierra de Na Burguesa (Calvia). In the division following the conquest of the island by the Crown of Aragon, the municipality of Costitx was given to Guillermo II de Bearn and thus passed to his heirs. His mausoleum is in the church of the Monastery of Santes Creus. Descendants. Guillem Ramon de Moncada had two children  - Gastón, who succeeded him in 1229, and Constanza de Béarn, who married Diego López III de Haro, Lord of Vizcaya - with his wife Garsenda (daughter of Alfonso II, Count of Provence and Garsenda de Folcarquier). If tracing Queen Victoria, Catherine the Great and Felipe VI's ancestry through the direct female line (mother's mother's mothers), Constanza de Béarn is as far back as one can go, because all of them were direct female descendants of Duchess Marie Elisabeth of Saxony. Anne of Bohemia and Hungary is also direct female ancestor of Marie de' Medici and Charles II of  England as well as Philip V of Spain.
