Comments:
[232] A letter from Pope Innocent III [dated probably 10-31 May 1199] reveals that the papal curia had concluded that the marriages of Queen Isabella to Conrad of Montferrat and later to Henry of Champagne had been illegitimate. (Innocent III, Die Register 2 :128-9, no. 72). The sentiment in the Christian camp before Acre at the forcible separation of Isabella and Humphrey was conveyed in evidence given in October 1213 to a commission chaired by Cardinal Robert of Courçon by the following witnesses, who had been present: Guido de Dampetra; Odardus marescallus Campaniae; Guido de Capis; Petrus Turkinus; Willelmus comes Jonviniacensis; Hugo de sancto Mauritio; Robertus de Miliaco; Rogerius de Sancto Karauno; and Lambertus de Barro. (Migne PL 216:980-1) (RRH no. 867).
