Her parentage is unknown; I had previously marked her maternity as uncertain, but if no one objects, I am going to disconnect. Her LNAB should also be changed to Unknown as opposed to Komnenos-please see "Genealogics" by Leo van de Pas and Ian Fettes (surname per ES called Angela); Cawley's "Medieval Lands" indicates multiple possible relationships to the Angelos family, though the correct one is conjectural.

Per Medieval Lands (by Cawley), her parentage is currently unknown and can only be guessed at given the current source material available. The current maternity she has shown on WT is chronologically impossible. I'm marking her mother as uncertain, but she should perhaps be disconnected.

Angelina-9 and Komnenos-7 appear to represent the same person because: daughters match
