Gonzalo Téllez
Gonzalo Téllez (died 915) was a nobleman who was Count of Lantarón and Cerezo de Río Tirón, Cerezo (c. 897–c. 915) and is also mentioned in a document dated 903 as List of Castilian counts, Count of Castile. He and his wife were the founders of the Monastery of San Pedro de Arlanza. ''Tenencias'' and estates, military campaigns and repopulation Because of the relentless incursions of the armies of the Emirate of Córdoba from the end of the 8th-century against the counties of Kingdom of Castile#History, Castile and County of Álava, Álava, which intensified in the first decades of the 9th-century, it became necessary to build several defensive fortifications, including those at Cerezo in Castile and at Lantarón and Valdegovía, Astúlez in Álava. The first mention of a count governing Álava exclusively dates to 882 when Vela Jiménez appears as tenant-in-chief, ''tenente'' of the region, which was possibly governed previously by Count Rodrigo of Castile. Near the end ...

Álvaro Herraméliz
Álvaro Herraméliz (fl. 923–931), was a Spanish noble and the count of Lantarón and of Álava in the region that today would be considered the Basque Country in northern Spain. Biography Count Álvaro was the son of Herramel, a noble who was active in the Reconquista and in the repopulation of lands in Álava, Burgos, and La Rioja where two towns bear his name, Herramel and Herramélluri. In 923, Álvaro participated in the conquest of Nájera and Viguera alongside king Ordoño II of León and on 20 October of that same year, he confirmed the foundational charter of the monastery at Santa Coloma, La Rioja. Even though it was not until 28 September 929 that he is recorded in charters for the first time as Count of Álava, he could have held the title at an earlier date. After the defeat of the armies of the kingdoms of León and Navarre on 26 July 920 at the Battle of Valdejunquera, King Ordoño could have replaced Munio Vélaz — who confirms as Count of Álava for ...

Fernando Díaz (count In Lantarón And Cerezo)
Fernando Díaz (fl. 917–924) was the count and '' tenente'' of Lantarón and Cerezo on the eastern frontier of the Kingdom of León in 923–24. He was a son of Diego Rodríguez, count of Castile. There is a document dated 28 March 913 which records that King Vermudo was reigning in León and Fernando Díaz in Lantarón. Unfortunately, the date on the document is impossible, since Vermudo II was not king at that time and the count of Lantarón, known from other documents, was Gonzalo Téllez. The historian Gonzalo Martínez Díez has suggested the date should be corrected to 923 and the king to Ordoño II. In 917, after the death of Count Gonzalo Fernández of Castile, a count named Fernando appears governing Castile. This may have been Fernando Díaz, who was active around the same time in the neighbouring region of Álava, or possibly Fernando Ansúrez I, who was certainly count of Castile at a later date. In January 918, Fernando Díaz was in the city of León, where he s ...
