Research Notes:
From the Cid tradition, it is stated that Jimena Diaz, his wife, was 'niece' (literally niece or granddaughter, but frequently used more in a generic sense as a younger female kinswoman) [of Alfonso V]. The early pedigrees, as reflected by charts given in some of the works of Salazar y Castro dating from a decade on either side of 1700, show this relationship quite simply - Jimena Diaz is given as daughter of Count Diego (erroneously made grandson of Infanta Christina, daughter of Vermudo II) by Jimena Alfonso, daughter of Alfonso V. This was the accepted parentage up until Menendez Pidal discovered a document in which Jimena and her siblings appear, as well as their mother Christina, while grandfather Fernando Gundemariz is named. Thus count Diego did no tmarry Jimena Alfonso, but instead a Christina, apparently in turne daughter of Fernando Gundemariz. In order to maintain the royal connection Menendez Pidal simply shifted the marriage a generation earlier, making Jimena Alfonso wife of Fernando and grandmother of Jimena Diaz [Ref: Todd Farmerie SGM 2/18/2005-010813]

name Christina was extremely rare; she could perhaps be identified with her contemporary Christina Alfonso, granddaughter of the Infanta Christina Vermudez of Leon (#36462), who appears to have been the first member of the spanish nobility to bear this name. But, Infanta Christina Vermudez was godmother of Fernando Gundemariz. The most likely source for Christina's name was that Fernando Gundemariz named a daughter for his godmother, which is a perfectly natural thing to do. [Ref: Todd Farmerie SGM 1/17/2001-014138]
