Ledgarde

  General Notes:

LEDGARDE, daughter of --- ([950/53]-after 16 Apr 980). "Borrellus comes et marchio" donated property to the monastery of San Saturnino de Urgell, for the souls of "…uxoris meæ Letgarda vel prolis meæ, que de me et illa procreata est, et…fratris mei Mironis comitis atque marchionis", by charter dated 6 Jun 964. Her birth date is estimated on the assumption that she was 15 years old or younger at the time of her marriage, but old enough to have given birth to her first child before the date of this charter. Bofarull records a suggestion by Marca that Ledgarde was the daughter of "Ramon Pons y Garsinda condes de Auvernia". It is chronological impossible for Ledgarde to have been the daughter of Raymond Pons Comte de Toulouse et d´Auvergne whose children must have been born in the range [920/30]. If Ledgarde did belong to the Toulouse family, she must have been Ledgarde , daughter of Raymond III Comte de Toulouse & his wife [Gundinildis ---], whose children would have been born in the range [940/60]. "Borrellus...comes et marchio et coniux nostra Ledgardis comitissa" sold "ecclesia de sancti Stephani...in puig de Granolers" to "Assolf" by charter dated 25 Jun 972 "in anno primo quo natus est filius eius Raimundus". "Borrellus comes et marchio seu Guiffredus consanguineus meus" donated "in loco...castrum Lordano vel in civitate Ysauna...ecclesias" to the church of Urgell by charter dated 30 Jul 973. "Borrellus…comes et marchio cum coniuge Leudgardis chomitissa" sold the castle of Queralt to "Witardo vicecomite" by charter dated 15 Jul 976. "Borrellus…chomes et marchio" sold property to "Unicfredo que vocant Amado" by charter dated 11 Jun 977, subscribed by "Ledgardis comitissa, Ansulfo, Vuitardus vicescomes…". "Borrellus comes et marchio et uxori mee Ledegards" donated property "in comitatu Ausona" to Vic by charter dated 16 Apr 980. ¹

Ledgarde married Borrell II de Barcelona Conde de Barcelona, Gerona, Osona y Urgel before 969. (Borrell II de Barcelona Conde de Barcelona, Gerona, Osona y Urgel died on 30 Sep 993 ¹.)
