| Notes |
- Tegridia, was the wife of Diego Muñoz (abt 0890-abt 951), known as Didacus Munnioz in medieval documents, who was the first Count of Saldaña. Her last name and lineage are not known. [1] Her birth date has been estimated @ around 0900, based on the information that she was married by the year 0920 (estimated to be 20 years old). Her second son, Gómez Díaz, was born around 0925 [2] which seems to support the estimation as well. Her death date has been estimated @ 0960 (60 yrs old). There is no clue as to where she was born, but she most likely died in the area of Palencia, i.e., County of Castile (Condado de Castilla).
Family Tree Banu Gómez
Tegridia was married by the year 920 to Diego. The union produced at least six children: [1] [3]
Munio Díaz who was likely the first-born and who probably inherited his father's lands from his uncle, but who disappeared around the same date, during the civil war between Sancho I and Ordoño IV (0958-0960). There are arguments, however, that he actually died before this period, closer to 0940. It is not known if he married or had children. [4]
Gómez Díaz, Conde de Saldaña y Liébana, called on to replace his father and uncle. He married Muniadona Fernández, the daughter of the powerful Fernán González "Conde de Castilla y de Álava" de Castilla. The marriage guaranteed the alliance of both Houses, Saldaña & Lara.
Elvira Díaz, wife of Count Fernando Bermúdez and mother of Jimena Fernández, Queen of Pamplona.
Count Osorio Diaz, who married Sancha Sánchez, daughter of Count Sancho Muñíz and Ildonza Fróilaz. Sancha's lineage through her mother was one of the oldest and most powerful in Galicia. The union would greatly favor the House of Saldaña, since in the rebellions of Diego Muñoz's beloved grandson, García Gómez, part of the Galician nobility represented by Osorio would support García.
Count Fernando Díaz, husband of Mansuara Fáfilaz, daughter of Count Fáfila Oláliz, titled landowner of Tierra de Campos near Sahagún. These lands would broaden the possessions of the family.
Guntrodo Díaz, also known as Gontroda. Her husband was Ablavel Godestéiz. [3] She and Ablavel appear in a donation made 01 Jun 0988. [5]
Research Notes
Name
Tegridia's Proper and Preferred First Names have been changed from "Trigidia" & "Trigridia" to "Tegridia", her Middle Name, originally "Núñez", left blank, and her CLN changed from "de Saldaña" to "Unknown". Her Other Last Name, "de Castilla", has been removed. Her LNAB "Castilla" was changed to "Unknown" on 05 Jul 2019. The "Nuñez" in the Middle Name (used as a surname) was probably assigned to her because initially she was included as the daughter of Nuno Fernandez, who has since been removed, along with his wife, Muniadomna Nunez as her parents (no other children were assigned to them at the time).
