There are two feathered queens in Dragon Pass. One is the Feathered Horse Queen whereas the other is the Feathered Queen of the Kerofini Temple. I don't think that Argrath having married the FHQ in 1629 would need to marry her again (even your theory states that he embezzled the benefits from the first marriage so why bother with the second). Hence I assume that he married the Feathered Queen of the Kerofini Temple a few years later rather than having him marry the FHQ twice.

A suggestion that I have heard is that Argrath because of his origins was known in Sartar as Argrath of Pavis despite there being a King of Pavis who was also known as Argrath...

There is something John Hughes pointed out sometime ago. Compare Kallyr's list of companions (KoS p235) with the officers of Umath's Camp (KoS p61) and you'll see that one position is missing from Kallyr's companions. A possible name of the missing companion is?
