Research notes

✓ RAMON BERENGUER IV, Count of BARCELONA, Prince of ARAGON (1114-1162), son of RAMON BERENGUER III THE GREAT (I99961, already in the tree - his brother-line runs to Berengaria our ancestress); m. Petronilla of Aragon; father of Alfonso II (our line). This rung LOOPS the Aragon kings onto the existing house of Barcelona. Standard well-documented medieval royal genealogy per the cited authorities (web-confirmed 7 Aug 2026); contested rungs note-only, not hardened.
