Paget 2:477 table III gives the first wife of Isaac II as Eirene, a daughter f Emperor Andronicus I Komnenos. I can find no evidence for this affiliation. Paul B Rupp, Die Vorfahren von Henriette von Mompelgard (Schriften zur Sudwestdeutschen Landeskunde, 15, Stuttgart, 1977), tafel 16 (no 495) also identifies her as Eirene N., citing C. Du Fresne, Seigneur Ducange, Familiae augustae byzantinae (Paris, 1680), p 167, and M Bachmann, Die Rede des Johannes Syropulos an des Kaiser Isaac H Angelos (diss. Munchen, 1935), pp103-5, but later cites Oktawiusz Jurewicz, Andronikos I Komnenos (Amserdamm, 1970) pp 133-5 and the genealogical table as authority for the same account of the parentage of the wife of Isaac II as Paget gives (Rupp, supra, pp 262, 269). I can find no statement in Jurewicz to support Rupp's theory. That Isaac's daughter was named Eirene is against the name proposed for the mother [Ref: Brook ByzantineAnc p39#19]
