Quick question; I thought King John's daughter Eleanor married
Llewellyn ab Iowerth (when she was about 12 naturally). They were
happily married for many years until she had a fling with William de
Braose (who Llewellyn promtly hanged before forgiving Eleanor). Who
was Simon de Montfort? Am I thinking of the right Eleanor? I think
the Eleanor who married Llewellyn was a random illegitimate offshoot
of one of John's random affairs (before he married Isabelle), is the
Eleanor to whom you refer a legitimate daughter from the union with
Isabelle?
