Philippa was a countess in her own right when she married William IX, Duke of Aquitaine. She married him because she wanted help getting Toulouse back from her cousin who should not have inherited it.
She is my 23rd great-grandmother.
My family tree through the ages

She is my 23rd great-grandmother.
While records are sparse, we know Hildegarde of Burgundy married her cousin William VIII, Duke of Aquitaine.
Emma of Blois was Duchess consort of Aquitaine by marriage. She also ruled Aquitaine as regent for her son William V.
Adele was originally called Gerloc but changed her name when she was christened. She is known for founding the monastery of Sainte-Trinité.
We know little about Giorgio d’Armenia because few records exist.
Emmanuele Darmenia was a trader from Valletta, but it’s hard to say what he traded in.
Emmanuele is one of my maternal great-great-grandfathers.
