Prince Lionheart

Eleanor of Aquitaine?

Who were the famous ancestors of Eleanor of Aquitaine (if she wasn’t the first famous one in the line)? Obvy, she had famous descendants (e.g. sons King Richard the Lionheart and Prince/King John) and not-so-famous descendants (me) but did she have illustrious ancestors?

I looked her up on

Then I looked at RWWC,

for Eleanor b. 1122, and checked “has notes” and “has sources” because RWWC lets you display a pedigree. The datbase named “Kairos” looks good.

Eleanor had a bunch of dukes in her ancestors and some kings, according to them.
