Notes:
Berengaria (of Navarre) (1165?-1230), queen consort of King Richard I of England. She was the daughter of Sancho VI, king of Navarre, and was betrothed to Richard shortly after his accession to the English throne in 1189. She joined him in Italy in 1191, while he was traveling to Palestine on the Third Crusade, and they were married later the same year in Lemes?s (Limassol), Cyprus. From 1191 to 1192, while Richard campaigned against the Saracens, she lived in Acre in Palestine, and from 1192 to 1194, while he was a prisoner in Germany, she lived in Poitou (now in France). After Richard's release from captivity the couple appear to have become estranged, and modern historians agree that they were probably never reunited. After Richard's death in 1199, Berengaria spent most of her last years in Le Mans, France, where she died.
Berengaria married King Richard I "The Lionhearted" Of PLANTAGENET, Of England in 1191 in Lemes?s (Limassol), Cyprus. Richard (son of King Henry II PLANTAGENET and Queen Eleanor De AQUITAINE) was born on 8 Sep 1157 in Beaumont Palace, Oxfordshire, England; died on 6 Apr 1199 in Killed By Arrow In Battle, Chalus, Limousin, France; was buried in Fontevrault Abbey, Fontevrault, Maine-Et-Loire, France.
