Can you tell me how Margaret is described in the sources?
Is she called "of Teschen" (what spelling)? Or is she called
"of Bohemia"? Or what?

Does Evans say when (which year) was the claim made?

It looks like an interesting topic for considering various

many claimants to the Bohemian Crown at that time, so
he may have been one more for some reason.
