Cana de Pontlevoie de Beaumont

CANA

From Medlands http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/MAINE.htm#RaoulVBeaumontdied1065B

daughter of GELDUIN Seigneur de Pontlevoie & his wife ---. [1060]. She is named as the mother of Savari by Orderic Vitalis, without giving her origin or the name of her husband[532]. It is possible that this is the same person as Cana, daughter of Gelduin Seigneur de Saumur & his [first] wife Gerberge du Perche, who is recorded in the Gesta Ambaziensium which names "Gosfridum…Puella vocatus…sororem Chanam" as children of "Gelduinus vir nobilis ex genere Danorum", specifying that Cana married "Frangalo Filgeriarum dominus" and had many sons and daughters[533]. If this is correct, her marriage to Vicomte Raoul would probably have been her second marriage. "Radulfus vicecomes et Cana eius uxor" witnessed the charter dated to [1060] by which "Robertus filius Frogerii" donated "terram de Mosteriolo" to Saint-Vincent du Mans, for "fratre suo Geroico", with the consent of "Gaufridus frater vicecomitis"[534].
