JEAN de Brabant, son of JEAN I Duke of Brabant & his second wife Marguerite de Flandre (27 Sep 1275-Château de Tervueren 27 Oct 1312, Brussels Saints Michael and Gudula). The Genealogia Ducum Brabantiæ Ampliata names (in order) "Iohannem et Godefridum" as the two sons of "Iohannes dux Lothoringie et Brabantie" & his second wife[261]. The Balduini Ninovensis Chronicon records that "Iohannis filius eius" succeeded "Iohannis primus dux Lotharingie, Brabantie et Lemburgie" in 1294[262]. He succeeded his father in 1294 as JEAN II "der Friedfertige" Duke of Brabant and Limburg. The Oude Kronik van Brabant records death in 1312 of "Johannes secundus…dux Lotharingie, Brabancie et Lymburgie marchioque Sacri Imperii"[263].
m (Westminster Abbey 8 or 9 Jul 1290) MARGARET of England, daughter of EDWARD I King of England & his first wife Infanta doña Leonor de Castilla (Windsor Castle 11 Sep [1279/80]-1318 or after 11 Mar 1333, bur Brussels, Saints Michael and Gudula). The Continuator of Florence of Worcester records the birth in 1275 at Windsor of "filiam…Margaret" to "Alienora uxor regis, regina Angliæ"[264]. The order of the birth of the children of King Edward I is difficult to ascertain as none of the sources so far consulted records all their births and the different sources are inconsistent. If the Continuator of Florence of Worcester is accepted for the years of birth of Alfonso (Nov [1273]) and Margaret (1275), the year of birth of Isabella (consistently recorded in Mar 1275 N.S. in all sources so far consulted) is impossible. A solution to the problem is if Alfonso was born in Nov 1275 and Margaret in either 1279 or 1280. The Oude Kronik van Brabant records that "Johannes secundus…dux Lotharingie, Brabancie et Lymburgie marchioque Sacri Imperii" married "Margaretam filiam Eduardi primi regis Anglie"[265]. The Annales Halesiensibus record the marriage "1290 XVII Id Iul" of "Margaretam filiam regis" and "Iohannes filius et heres ducis Brabantie"[266]. The Continuator of Florence of Worcester records the marriage "VI Id Jul" at Westminster of "Johannes filius et hæres Johannis ducis Brabantiæ" and "Margaretam filiam regis Anglie"[267]. The Annales Londonienses record the marriage "VII Id Iul" in 1290 of "domina Margareta…regis Angliæ filia" and "Johanni filio ducis Brabantiæ"[268].
