 Gustav Anjou BEACH History
Anjou's further assertions about the Beaches of New Haven cast doubt on his thoroughness as a researcher and thus the reliability of all of his conclusions.

 Abbey of Fontrevraud
Stephen's son and heir, Eustase, left Normandy (where he was trying to reestablish the Blois claim) and crossed over to England to lead his father's counter camapign against Henry.
The term 'Plantagenet' more aptly realtes to the descendents of Geoffroi who remained on the English throne, but no longer had claim to the French province of Anjou.
Though the drawn-out civil war effectively denied Matild'a claim to the English throne, Stephen eventually lost Normandy in the early 1140s to Matilda's husband, Geoffrey IV, count of Anjou.

 Rene d'Anjou
René inherited Anjou and Provence and in addition claims to the kingdoms of Naples, Sicily and Jerusalem, which Giovanna confirmed on her death in 1435.

 Anjou - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hugh the Abbot succeeded him in the countship of Anjou as in most of his other duties, and on his death (886) it passed to Odo, the eldest son of Robert the Strong, who, on his accession to the throne of France (888), probably handed it over to his brother Robert.
Louis I, who became in time count of Provence and king of Naples, died in 1384, and was succeeded by his son Louis II, who devoted most of his energies to his kingdom of Naples, and left the administration of Anjou almost entirely in the hands of his wife, Yolande of Aragon.
Its political origin is traced to the ancient Gallic state of the Andes, on the lines of which was organized, after the conquest by Julius Caesar, the Roman civitas of the Andecavi.
