Abstract

This article is an attempt to examine the descent of medieval members of the De Moravia family and place them in relation to others as discussed in a previous article [Foundations 11 (2019): 49-62]. This has allowed construction of an updated genealogy based on relevant charters. that the author believes challenges other historians’ views,. The known facts are placed in a framework and timeline to provide a more positive statement of descent.
