Pedro Manrique de Lara
Pedro Manrique de Lara (c. 1140–1202), second lord of Molina, was the leading Castilian magnate of the House of Lara under Alfonso VIII. Son of Count Manrique Pérez de Lara and Ermessende of Narbonne, he is first documented in 1158 and helped guard the young king.
He defended Toledo and Extremadura against the Almohads, briefly served Ferdinand II of León in 1185–1186, and from 1192 held the viscounty of Narbonne by inheritance. The first Spanish noble whose seal survives, he died in January 1202, leaving a son Aimerico by his wife Sancha Garcés of Navarre.
