| May 13, 2015 at 18:30 | comment | added | user104 | @bhwiehle, I'm not convinced we should exclude questions by date, but rather look at the provenance of any available sources and the link to a current genealogy (which, at the dates we're looking at, is hard to prove even of the OP had claimed a line of descent). | |
| May 13, 2015 at 14:06 | comment | added | bgwiehle | An apropros example of a name sequence not indicating a relationship is Baldwin II, who was not closely related to Baldwin I, his predecessor as King of Jerusalem [per Baldwin II's Wikipedia entry]. Re on- or off-topic, there was discussion that questions on medieval and earlier genealogy should be avoided[?] because sources were often sketchy, but apparently that was never finalized. | |

| May 13, 2015 at 10:29 | comment | added | Jim | Thank you very much for your reply. I had read those pages over several times but could not see that relationship for some reason. Perhaps it's because I'm not used to those figures' names. I'd also be happy if you could elaborate on why the question would not be on-topic. | |
