Birth
Eleanor of Castile (in Spanish Leonor de Castilla) was probably the second child and only daughter of Ferdinand III, King of Castile and Leon, and his second wife, Jeanne de Dammartin, later Countess of Ponthieu and Aumale. Her birth date is not recorded in any source, and it has often been thought to be about 1244, as she is described as still a child in a number of chronicles of the time, when she married in 1254; perhaps aged about 10. However she was definitely born before 31 March 1243,...

Personally, when I run into the issu...
