| Notes |
- Sancho Garcés was the eldest son of García Jiménez, and his second wife Dadildis de Pallars[1] and was born about 880.[2]
His father had been 'a king in another part of Pamplona' usually interpreted as a sub-king or co-king with the kings of the Íñiguez dynasty[3] but Sancho Garcés was to supplant Fortún Garcés, the last king of the Íñiguez or "Íñigos" and become the first king of the Jimenez dynasty or “Jimenos”, as Sancho I in 905.[4]
He reigned until his death on 11 December 925,[2] and was revered in later generations, given the title of 'Obtime Imperator'.[1] He was buried in San Esteban de Deio.[2] As his son was still a child (see below) when he died, his brother Jimeno Garcés succeeded his as King of Pamplona.[2]
Marriage and Children
He married about 905, Toda Aznárez de Larraun, daughter of Aznar Sánchez de Larraun and infanta Oneca Fortuniones de Pamplona.[2] Both of her parents were members of the Iniguéz dynasty of Pamplona, and this marriage united both families. She was Regent of Pamplona for her son, after the death of her brother-in-law in 931.[2]
Sancho I Garcés and Toda Aznárez had issue:[2][5]
Sancha Sánchez, born circa 906, married three times;
Oneca Sánchez, born circa 908, married Alfonso IV, rey de León, and had issue;
Urraca Sánchez, born circa 910, married Ramiro II, rey de León, and had issue;
Velasquita Sánchez, born circa 912, married three times;
Orbita Sánchez, born circa 915,
García Sánchez, born circa 919, eventually succeeded as rey de Pamplona.
Sancho I Garcés also had an illegitimate daughter with an unnamed woman:[5]
Condesa Lupa Sánchez, born circa 900, married Dato II, conde de Bigorre, and died about 945 having had issue.[2]
