Notes for Unknown
Unknown Mistress of Geoffrey
Notes for Geoffrey Plantagenet (The Fair) (Spouse 1)
Burke says the marriage was 3 Apr 1127. The name Plantagenet, according to Rapin, came from when Fulk the Great being stung from remorse for some wicked action, in order to atone for it, went a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, and was scourged before the Holy Sepulchre with broom twigs. Earlier authorities say it was because Geoffrey bore a branch of yellow broom (Planta-genistae) in his helm.
Duke of Normandy 1144-1150.
