Arnstein-7 and Arnstein-6 do not represent the same person because: no need to keep as rejected

Von Arnstein-16 and Arnstein-6 appear to represent the same person because: There is no info on this profile, but based on the grandchild's dates it likely matches Arnstein-6.

Birth place should be: Arnstein-an-der-Lahn, Hessen-Nassau. There is an Arnstein in Bayern but his place of birth is now Arnstein Abbey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arnstein_Abbey.

Ludwig III turned the Castle into a monastery in 1139.

The dates are probably off for Ludwig II and his daughter Agnes. He and Udelhild also had a son: Ludwig III (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_III._von_Arnstein). His bio states that his father died when Ludwig III was young. If true, Ludwig II died before 1125 (probably earlier) and Agnes must have been born before that.

"Count Ludwig III entered the rights of his deceased father very early. Due to the lack of education, without a father, he led a dissolute and violent life; his castle became the starting point for dreaded raids. Around 1125 he married Countess Guda of Bomeneburg". They were childless. Ludwig II was probably born btw 1070-1080. 3 of his sisters appear to have been born during that time frame.

Mother Gutta was 59 years old at birth, which is unlikely.
