Agnes von Gleichen +1536

Gunther IV (1484-1526), Count of Mansfeld-Vorderort, married Agnes von
Gleichen. Was she the daughter of Siegmund I Count of Gleichen-Tonna
and his wife, Agnes von Querfurt, or the daughter of Karl I Count of
Gleichen-Blankenheim and his wife, Felicitas von Beichlingen?

1904 makes the eventual 'typo' more probable. Handwritting is easy to
change III to IV.

When the same man is married to 2 Agnes von Gleichen all sorts of
confusions are possible. I find hard to believe that they both died in
1536 as in that case the 1st marriage would have finished with a
divorce and probably an annulment, and that was rare and *noisy* if I
may say so. Sort of thing that is normally well documented and referred
to.

Both. :-))

Depends if you want the 1st or the 2nd marriage.

Copying from euweb.cz sub Mansfeld:
