    Below is margin note from a manuscript in which some new information pertaining to the short reign of Andronikos III Komnenos can be gleamed. From Neos Ellenomnemon (1910) by Spyros Lambros pgs. 113-312

    50. Ἐκοιμήθη ὁ μέγας Κομνηνὸς κύρ Ἀλέξιος μηνὶ Μαὶῳ εἰς τὴν γ' ἡμέρ. ὥρ. ι' τῆς ιγ' ἴνδικτιῶνος τοῦ ςωλη'. Ὁ δὲ υἱὸς τοῦ μακαρίτου εὐσεβεστάτου βασιλέως κυρ. Ἀλεξίου ὁ κύρ. Ἀνδρόνικος ἐβασίλευσεν σὺν θεῷ ἀγίῳ μηνὶ Μαίῳ εἰς τὴν γ' ἡμέρ. ὥρ. ι' ἰνδικτιῶνος ιγ' ἔτους ςωλη'.

    Εὑρίσκεται ὅτι ἐβασίλευσε ὁ κύρ. Ἀνδρόνικος ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ μεγάλου Κομνηνοῦ κύρ. Ἀλεξίου ὁ αὐθέντης ἐτῶν ιη'.

    50. The lord Alexios the Grand Komnenos died on May 3 at the tenth hour of indiction 13, 6838 (1330). The son of the late and most pious emperor lord Alexios, the lord Andronikos then became emperor and ruled with holy God on May 3, at the tenth hour of indiction 13, 6838 (1330).

    The lord Andronikos, the son of the Alexios the Grand Komnenos, became emperor aged 18.
