King Henry I of England, having heard good reports on Geoffrey's talents and prowess, sent his royal legates to Anjou to negotiate a marriage between Geoffrey and his own daughter, Matilda.

Geoffrey states that Vortigern was the successor to Constans, the son of the usurping emperor Constantine III.

Geoffrey actually seems to have conflated the historical Constantine III with an unrelated Cornish king of the same name, Custennin Gorneu ( the Welsh name Custennin is derived from Latin Constaninus ; it is possible that Geoffrey picked up the name from a Welsh Arthurian genealogy resembling those found in Bonedd yr Arwyr # 30a and Mostyn MS 117 # 5 ), which has led to much confusion among modern scholars ; beyond their names, Geoffrey's fictional Constantine does not resemble the historical one.

Geoffrey of Monmouth includes Constantine in a section of his Historia Regum Britanniae adapted from Gildas, in which the reproved kings are made successors, rather than contemporaries as in De Excidio.

Geoffrey evidently knew the Dumnonian genealogy in essentially this form, though he is the first to identify Gildas ' Constantine as a son of Cador, known in Welsh tradition as Cadwy mab Geraint.

Geoffrey makes Aurelius Conanus the nephew to the previous king Constantine, whom he kills after a reign of only three years.

In the 12th century, Geoffrey of Monmouth's list of kings of the Britons, which was partially based on the chronology found in the Historia Brittonum, placed Arthur and Uther Pendragon in sequence between Aurelius Ambrosius and a Breton ruler named Constantinus ( often erroneously identified with Constantine III ), all of them Romano-British rulers placed in the Sub-Roman period of the 5th to 6th century.
