[[Ioannes Komnenos]] was born in 1128, as the son of Andronikos Komnenos, Sebastokrator by his wife Eirene (Ainoiadissa); he was later the Duke of Cyprus. About 1146 he married a daughter of [[Michael Taronites]]. This couple had four children, but only two daughters Theodora and Maria had descendents. Those descendents however connect to many if not all the European Royal houses. So this marriage provides a gateway to the kingdom of Taron and thus potentially to the Bagratids. | [[Ioannes Komnenos]] was born in 1128, as the son of Andronikos Komnenos, Sebastokrator by his wife Eirene (Ainoiadissa); he was later the Duke of Cyprus.

| + | Faris' Plantagenet Ancestry, 2nd edition shows the wife of Thomas Bardolf, 2nd Baron as Agnes, likely a daughter of William Grandison. Tim Powys-Lybbe commented on this [http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/GEN-MEDIEVAL/2002-05/1020578315 here] by saying "CP Vol I, p. 418 confirms Faris but the CP Corrigenda et Addenda volume, XIV, p. 64, adds that Agnes seems unlikely to have been the da. of William, Seigneur de Grandison." | ||
