bullet  General Notes:

She was supposed to become the third wife of Philip II of France but was abducted by Thomas I of Savoy in 1195, while on her way to Paris. Thomas then married her himself, claiming that Philip II was already married (the French King had married Ingeborg of Denmark in 1193 but had repudiated her soon thereafter)

Margaret married Thomas of Savoy, son of Count Umberto of Savoy III and Beatrice of Viennois, in 1195. (Thomas of Savoy was born in 1178 and died on 1 Mar 1233.)
