Ramiro I of Aragon
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ramiro I (died 8 May 1063) is usually credited with being the first King of Aragon. He was the natural son of Sancho III of Navarre by his mistress Sancha de Aybar[1]. Ramiro was reputed to have been adopted by his father's wife Mayor after he was the only of his father's children to come to her aid when needed, although there is no surviving record of these events, and the story is probably apocryphal.
During his father's reign, he was given numerous properties in the county of Aragon, and by the division of Sancho's realm on the latter's death in 1035, the county of Aragon fell to Ramiro with the title of baiulus or steward. The foundation traditions of the Kingdom of Aragon would make him the first king, (he is, on account of the small size of his Pyrenean kingdom with its capital at Jaca, sometimes called a "petty king") and he was called king by his vassals, neighbors, the church and even his sons, yet he referred to himself always as simply Ranimiro Sancioni regis filio (Ramiro, son of King Sancho). Likewise, in his wills, he refers to his lands as simply having been given him in stewardship by his half-brother García and by God. He is likewise called regulus (rather than rex used for García) and quasi pro rege (acting as if king) in charters from Navarre[2].
Ramiro sought to enlarge his lands at the expense of both Moor and brother. His reign was uneventful until 1043, when he invaded the Kingdom of Navarre of his brother García. He was defeated in the Battle of Tafalla. In 1045, he annexed Sobrarbe and Ribagorza, held by his youngest legitimate half-brother, Gonzalo. Ramiro was claiming lordship over these lands prior to Gonzalo's death[3].
Before he was married, Ramiro had a mistress named Amuña with whom he had a natural son, Sancho Ramírez, in whom he confided the government of the county of Ribagorza.[4]
Ramiro wed his first wife, Gisberga, daughter of Bernard Roger of Bigorre, on 22 August 1036. She changed her name to Ermesinda on marrying him. Together the couple had five children:
Sancho Ramírez, his successor
García, Bishop of Jaca
Sancha, married Armengol III of Urgel
Urraca, nun in Santa Cruz de la Serós
Theresa, married William Bertrand
Ramiro's second wife was Agnes (Inés), a daughter of the Duke of Aquitaine. Ramiro set the advance from Aragon toward Huesca and Zaragossa,after annexation of Ribagorza and Sobrarbe. To him is due the first Chart for the Royal town of Jaca,that will set the example of an ideal Community (included well defined laws of protection even to non residents) for later urban rights until late in the Middle Ages.
Ramiro died at the Battle of Graus in 1063 while trying to take the city.

Hijo natural ya que el Rey Sancho nunca se casó con Doña Sancha de Aybar. Primer Rey de Aragón 1035-1063/1064. "Auxiliado por los Tojibies, gobernadores de Zaragoza desde últimos del siglo noveno y por los de Huesca y Tudela, invadió los estados de su hermano García, que lo derrotó en Tafalla. Por muerte de su otro hermano Gonzalo, asesinado en la puente de Monclús, se apoderó de Sobrarbe y Rivagorza, sobre el año 1037. Ahmed I, gobernador de Zaragoza, cuyo padre Suley-mán había fundado en esta ciudad la dinastía de los Beni-Hud, sostenía guerra con su hermano Almudafar de Lérida: aprovecháronse los príncipes cristianos de estas desavenencias para aumentar su poderío, y Ahmed, vencedor de su hermano, tuvo que pagar tributo á Ramiro. Poniendo este sitio á Graus, fué acometido por Ahmed, quien viendose vencido, hizo asesinar á Ramiro, por medio de una traición, el año 1063. Con la debilidad de los muslimes mejoró la situación de los cristianos, ó mozárabes, de Zaragoza. cuyo Obispo Paterno asistió en 1063 al concilio de Jaca, donde se reunieron los de Urgel, Bigorra, Olorón, Calahorra, Jaca y Roda, y los Abades de Leire, San Andrés y San, Victorián, determinando entre otras cosas. que hasta la reconquista de Huesca el Obispo de Jaca se llamara Obispo de Aragón.
