Elizabeth Woodville. Does anyone have the descent? I would imagine it is
through Jacquette de Luxemburg who was married first to John of Lancaster, Duke
of Bedford and second to Richard Woodville, future Earl Rivers.

Through the Sabran-Ariano line, Elizabeth Woodville also had a descent from
Adenulfo d'Aquino, son of Landulfo Ct of Aquino and a brother of St Thomas
Aquinas (d. 1274). It is not true, however, that this descent also involved
the marriage of Thomas d'Aquino, count of Acerra, to Margaret a bastard
daughter of Emperor Frederick II. Elizabeth Woodville in fact descended from
that marriage, but through an earlier marriage in the del Balzo-d'Andria
line, not the Orsini-Nola line.

So it is not true then that Elizabeth Woodville is descended from Guy de
Montfort? I am confused.
