William the Conqueror’s wife Mathilda was only four feet two inches tall. She had nine children.
I knew that would be false, just like Napoleon.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matilda_of_Flanders#...
"In 1959 Matilda's incomplete skeleton was examined and her femur and tibia were measured to determine her height. Her height was 5 feet (152 cm), a normal female height for the time.[34] However, as a result of this examination she was misreported as being 4 feet 2 inches (127 cm)[35] leading to the myth that she was extremely small."
