2 | John of Gaunt. Duke of Aquitaine. Earl of Richmond Titular King of Castile & Leon. May have died Oct 21, 1425 John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster (1340-99), English soldier and statesman, the fourth son of King Edward III of England, and brother of Edward, the Black Prince. John was born in March 1340 in Ghent (M.E., Gaunt), now in Belgium. In 1359 he married Blanche, daughter of Henry, duke of Lancaster; when Henry died, John became duke.John of Gaunt played an important part in the wars of the period between England and France and between England and Spain. He commanded a division of the English army, led by the Black Prince, that defeated the army of Henry (later Henry II, king of Castile and León) at Nájera in 1367. As a result of his second marriage, to Constance, daughter of Peter the Cruel (king of Castile and León), John laid claim to the throne of Castile. During the Hundred Years' War, he aided (1370-71) the Black Prince against France and established English rule over most of southern France. After a severe illness forced the return of the Black Prince to England, John took command of the English armies; by 1380 he had lost much of the territory the English had previously won. In 1386 John invaded Castile, but was defeated by John I, king of Castile and León. John of Gaunt gave up his claim to Castile and León in 1387, when his daughter married Henry, later Henry III, king of Castile and León.John of Gaunt was also prominent in English affairs. Together with Alice Perrers, his father's mistress, John dominated the English government. He was opposed by Parliament and by the Black Prince. In 1376 Parliament banished Alice Perrers and curtailed John's powers. The death of the Black Prince that year and the dissolution of Parliament, however, enabled John to regain his power. In 1377, on the death of Edward III and the accession of Richard II (John's nephew and son of the Black Prince), John gave up his control of the government and thereafter played the role of peacemaker; he also supported the king, by whom he was made (1390) duke of Aquitaine. In 1396, after the death of his second wife, John married his mistress Catherine Swynford, and Richard legitimized their children the following year. Saddened by the exile (1398) of his son, Henry of Lancaster (later King Henry IV of England), John died on February 3 of the following year.

6 | ! Complete Peerage I-24 I-244 Married Kings Chapel, Havering-atte-Bower, Essex, England According to John Young, the marriage of Richard "Copped Hat" FitzAlan and Isabel le Despencer was contracted at the age of 7 or 8 years of age. The Church annulled the marriage so that FitzAlan could marry his second wife, and Edmund and his two sisters were made ilegitimate, and could not inherit: The 3 children-Edmund and his 2 sisters were still properly born children (when they were married) of Earl Richard "Copped Hat" FitzAlan and Lady Despencer. This is the reasons that Edmund styled himself De Arundel- by heir right he should have become the next Earl. He was knighted though and was not cast fully aside . Burke in error shows him a brother of his father- Cokayne is correct and details it in his footnotes." Burke has death date 24 Jan 1375 for Richard Richard Fitz Alan, 10th/3rd Earl of Arundel, as which restored 1331 (confirmation 1351 and 1354), getting Arundel Castle back also Dec 1330-31 from the widow of Edmund Earl of Kent; after the death of his maternal uncle the 8th Earl of Surrey's widow 31 Aug 1361, Richard assumed the additional title of 9th Earl of Surrey; known as "Copped Hat"; born c1313; Justiciar of North Wales for life 1334, Governor of Carnarvon Castle 1339, Sheriff of Salop for life 1345; Admiral of the West 1340-41 and 1345-47; commanded 2nd division at Crecy 1346 and assisted at taking of Calais 1347; married 1st 9 Feb 1320/1 (annulled 4 Dec 1344) Isabel, daughter of 1st Lord (Baron) le Despenser of the 29 July 1314 creation, and had issue (bastardised by the papal annulment of 1344); married 2nd 5 Feb 1344/5 his mistress Eleanor, daughter of the 3rd Earl of Lancaster (ggs of Henry III) of the 1267 investiture (by his wife Maud de Chaworth) and widow of the 2nd Lord (Baron) Beaumont, and died 24 Jan 1375/6. [Burke's Peerage] Richard Fitz-Alan, b. 1306, who being restored by parliament, 4th Edward III [1331], had the castle of Arundel (which had been given to Edmund, Earl of Kent, the king's uncle) rendered to him, and thus became 9th earl. In the 7th Edward III [1334], this nobleman was constituted governor of Chirke Castle, co. Denbigh, and the ensuing year had a grant of the inheritance of that castle, with all the territories thereunto belonging, being part of the possessions of Roger Mortimer, the attainted Earl of March; he was soon afterwards made governor of Porchester Castle, and the same year had a command in the wars of Scotland, where he continued engaged for some years. After this he was constituted admiral of the western seas, and governor of Caernarvon Castle. In the 14th Edward III [1341], his lordship embarked in the French wars, and participated in the glories of the subsequent campaigns. He was at the siege of Vannes, the relief of Thouars, and the immortal battle of Cressy. Besides his great military services, the earl was frequently employed in diplomatic missions of the first importance, and was esteemed one of the most eminent generals and statesmen of the era in which he lived. His lordship, who, with his other honours, had the Garter, contracted in minority and under constraint, marriage with Isabel, dau. of Hugh le Despencer, and had issue by her, an only dau., Philippa, m. to Sir Richard Sergeaux, Knt., of Cornwall. In 1345, he was divorced from this lady, and m.

7 | "The evidence... suggests that Margery married Giles before 1239 andlived until 1267, when Giles is mentioned, but was probably dead byc.1274, when her son Reginald appears (there is no doubt that Reginaldwas of age by 1267). Judging by Jordan de Sackville's OxfordshireInquisition Post Mortem, and others quoted by Phillips, his son Andrewwas born 9 October 1253, at which date Margery was certainly married toGiles de Argentein. Andrew de Sackville does not appear in connectionwith the property until c.1282 (although Blomefield (vol.2, pp.181,183;vol.8, pp.412,413) gives some references vaguely dated 'temp.Henry III',in fact they must be later). The later records quoted by Phillips must bein error (Andrew perhaps being changed from 'successor' of Margery intoher 'heir'). One other feature of Margery's (who married Giles de Argentein) ancestrydisclosed by the evidence above is that her mother was Margery, thedaughter of William de Fresney, and not, as usually stated, Agatha, thedaughter and coheir of Fulk de Beaufo (Blomefield, vol.2, p.178, vol.8,pp 412,413; Farrer, vol.3, p.111). Note that Phillips makes this Agathathe mother, not the wife, of Robert Aguillon, which would resolve theproblem.

26 | Guy de Beauchamp, 2nd earl, so called in memory of his celebratedpredecessor, the Saxon, Guy, Earl of Warwick. This nobleman acquired highmilitary renown in the martial reign of Edward I, distinguishing himselfat the battle of Falkirk, for which he was rewarded with extensive grantsof land in Scotland, at the siege of Caerlaverock, and upon differentoccasions besides beyond the sea. In the reign of Edward II, he likewiseplayed a very prominent part. In 1310 his lordship was in the commissionappointed by parliament to draw up regulations for "the well governing ofthe kingdom and of the king's household" in consequence of the corruptinfluence exercised at that period by Piers Gaveston in the affairs ofthe realm through the unbounded partiality of the king; and in two yearsafterwards, when that unhappy favorite fell into the hands of his enemiesupon the surrender of Scarborough Castle, his lordship violently seizedupon his person and, after a summary trial, caused him to be beheaded atBlacklow Hill, near Warwick. The earl's hostility to Gaveston is said tohave been much increased by learning that the favourite had nicknamed him"the Black Dog of Ardenne." For this unwarrantable proceeding, hislordship and all the others concerned therein received within two yearsthe royal pardon, but he is supposed to have eventually perished bypoison, administered in revenge by the partisans of Gaveston.

This great Earl of Warwick was, like most of the nobles of his time, amunificent benefactor to the church, having bestowed lands upon severalreligious houses and founded a chantry of priests at his manor of Elmley.His will bears date "at Warwick Castle* on Monday next after the feast ofSt. James the Apostle, an. 1315," and by it he bequests to Alice his wifea proportion of his plate, with a crystal cup, and half his bedding; asalso, all the vestments and books belonging to his chapel; the othermoiety of his beds, rings, and jewels, his gives to his daus. To his sonThomas, his best coat of mail, helmet, and suit of harness; to his sonJohn, his second suit of mail, &c., appointing that all the rest of hisarmour, bows, and other warlike provisions should remain in WarwickCastle for his heir. Alice, widow of the earl, had very extensive estatesassigned to her in dowry in the November following the death of herhusband, and in the next year she paid a fine of 500 marks for license tomarry William la Zouche, of Ashby, co. Leicester, to whom she wasaccordingly married.

Sept. 24, 1230, Villanueva deSarria, Galicia), king of Leon from 1188 to 1230, son of Ferdinand II ofLeon and first cousin of Alphonso VIII of Castile, and numbered next tohim as being a junior member of the family, is said by Ibn Khaldun tohave been called the "Baboso" or Slobberer, because he was subject tofits of rage, during which he foamed at the mouth. Though he took a partin the work of the reconquest, this king is chiefly remembered by thedifficulties into which his successive marriages led him with the pope.He was first married to his cousin, Teresa of Portugal, who bore him twodaughters and a son who died young. The marriage was declared null by thepope, to whom Alphonso paid no attention till he was presumably tired ofhis wife. It cannot have been his conscience which constrained him toleave Teresa, for his next step was to marry Berengaria of Castile, whowas his second cousin. For this act of contumacy the king and kingdomwere placed under interdict. The pope was, however, compelled to modifyhis measures by the threat that if the people could not obtain theservices of religion they would not support the clergy, and that heresywould spread. The king was left under interdict personally, but to thathe showed himself indifferent, and he had the support of his clergy.Berengaria left him after the birth of five children, and the king thenreturned to Teresa, to whose daughters he left his kingdom by will.[Encyclopaedia Britannica, 1961 ed., Vol. 1, p. 688, ALPHONSO IX of Leon] | Leon, Alfonso IX Fernandez King of (I3019)

32 | NAME Henry II "Plantagenet" King Of /ENGLAND/ BURI PLAC Fontevrault Abbey, Fontevrault, Maine-Et-Loire, France KING OR ENGLAND 1154-1189 Henry II was born at Le Mans in 1133. He was the eldest son of theEmpress Matilda, daughter of Henry I, by her second marriage to Geoffreythe Fair of Anjou. His parents' marriage was tempestous, and both partieswere glad when politics brought a separation, with Matilda going toEngland to fight King Stephen, and Geoffrey of Normandy to win a heritagefor young Henry. He first came to England at the age of nine when his mother made herdramatic escape from Oxford where she was besieged by Stephen, across theice and snow, dressed all in white, to welcome him at Wallingford. Hisnext visit, when he was fourteen, showed his character: he recruited asmall army of mercenaries to cross over and fight Stephen in England, butfailed so miserably in the execution of his plans that he ended upborrowing money from Stephen to get back home. A third expedition, twoyears later, was almost as great a failure. Henry was not a soldier, hiswere skills of administration and diplomacy; warfare bored and sometimesfrightened him. For the meanwhile he now concentrated on Normandy, ofwhich his father had made him joint ruler. In 1151, the year of hisfather's death, he went to Paris to do homage to Louis VII for his duchy.There he met Queen Eleanor, and she fell in love with him. Henry was by no means averse. To steal a king's wife does a great dealfor the ego of a young duke; he was as lusty as she, and late in their lives he was still ardently wenching with 'the fair Rosamund' Clifford,and less salubrious girls with names like 'Bellebelle'; finally, shewould bring with her the rich Duchy of Aquitaine, which she held in herown right. With this territory added to those he hoped to inherit and win, his boundaries would be Scotland in the north, and the Pyrenees in the south. Henry was, apart from his prospects, a 'catch' for any woman. He was intelligent, had learned Latin and could read and possibly write;immensely strong and vigorous, a sportsman and hard rider who loved travel; emotional and passionate, prone to tears and incredible rages;carelessly but richly dressed, worried enough in later life to conceal his baldness by careful arrangement of his hair, and very concerned not to grow fat. But now he was in the prime of youth, and in 1153, when he landed with alarge force in Bristol, the world was ready to be won. He quickly gained control of the West Country and moved up to Wallingford for a crucialbattle with Stephen. This was avoided, however, because in the preparations for the battle Henry fell from his horse three times, abad omen. Henry himself was not superstitious -- he was the reverse, a cheerful blasphemer -- but he disliked battles and when his anxious advisers urged him to heed the omen, he willingly agreed to parley privately with Stephen. The conference was a strange occasion: there were only two of them there, at the narowest point of the Thames, with Henryon one bank and Stephen on the other. None the less, they seem to have come to an agreement to take negotiations further. That summer Stephen's son died mysteriously, and Eleanor bore Henry anheir (about the same time as an English whore Hikenai produced his faithful bastard Geoffrey). The omens clearly showed what was soon confirmed between the two -- that when Stephen died, Henry should rule in his place. A year later Stephen did die, and in December 1154, Henry and Eleanor were crowned in London. Henry was only 21, but he soon showed his worth, destroying unlicensed castles, and dispersing the foreign mercenaries. He gave even-handed justice, showing himself firm, but not unduly harsh. A country racked by civil war sighed with relief. Only two major difficulties appeared: firs tHenry's failure in his two Welsh campaigns in 1157 and 1165, when guerilla tactics utterly defeated and on the first occasion nearly killed him; second was the reversal of his friendship for Becket when he changed from being Chancellor to Archbishop of Canterbury in 1162. The quarrel with Becket was linked with the King's determination to continue his grandfather's reform of the administration of justice in the country. He was anxious for a uniform pattern, operated by royal justices, to control the corrupt, ill-administered and unequal loca lsystems operated by barons and churchmen. At Clarendon in 1166 and Northampton in 1176, he got his council's agreeemnt to a series of measures which established circuits of royal justices dealing with the widest range of criminal activities. The method of operation was novel,too, relying on a sworn jury of inquest of twelve men. Though not like amodern jury, in that they were witnesses rather than assessors, the assize juries were the ancestors of the modern English legal system. Henry travelled constantly, and much of the time in his Contninental territories, for there were constant rebellions to deal with, usually inspired or encouraged by Louis of France. Henry was determined to keep the integrity of his empire, and to pass it on as a unity. To do this was no small task, but in 1169 Henry held a conference with the King of France which he hoped would achieve his objectives: he himself again did homage for Normandy, his eldest son Henry did homage for Anjou, Maine and Brittany, and Richard for Aquitaine. The next year he had young Henry crowned in his own lifetime. If anything could preserve the succession,surely this would, yet, in fact, it brought all the troubles in the world onto Henry's head, for he had given his sons paper domains, and had no intention that they should rule his empire. Yet a man with a title does not rest until he has that title's power. Late in 1171 Henry had a pleasant interlude in Ireland -- escaping from the world's condemnation for the murder of Becket. He spent Christmas at Dublin in a palace built for him out of wattles by the Irish. Meanwhile, Eleanor had been intriguing with her sons, urging them to revolt and demand their rights. Early in 1173 they trooped off to the French court, and with Louis joined in an attack on Normandy. Henry clamped Eleanor into prison and went off to meet the new threat. Whilst he was busy meeting this, England was invaded from Flanders and Scotland ,and more barons who fancied a return of the warlord days of Stephen broke into revolt. Plainly it was St. Thomas's revenge, and there was no hope of dealing with the situation without expiation. In July 1174 Henry returned to England, and went in pilgrim's dress to Canterbury. Through the town he walked barefoot, leaving a trail of blood on the flinty stones, and went to keep his vigil of a day and a night by the tomb, not even coming out to relive himself. As he knelt, the assembled bishops and all the monks of Christ church came to scourge him -- each giving him three strokes, but some with bitterness in their hearts laying on with five. It was worth it though, for the very morning his vigil ended Henry was brought the news that the King of Scotland had been captured. He moved quickly northwards, receving rebels' submission all the time. He met upwith Geoffrey who had fought valiantly for him, and commented, 'My othe rsons have proved themselves bastards, this one alone is my true and legitimate son.' Returning to France, he quickly came to an agreement with Louis and his three rebel sons, giving each a substantial income, though still no share of power. Richard set to work reducing the Duchy of Aquitaine to order, and quickly proved himself an able general who performed tremendous feats, such as capturing a fully manned and provisioned castle with three walls and moats to defend it. But the people were less easy to subdue -- they loved war for its own sake as their poet-leader, Bertrand de Born, shows wel lin his works: '. . . I love to see amidst the meadows tents and pavilionsspread; and it gives me great joy to see drawn up on the field knightsand horses in battle array; and it delights me when the scouts scatterpeople and herds in their path; and my heart is filled with gladness whenI see strong castles besieged, and the stockades broken and overwhelmed,and the warriors on the bank, girt about by fosses, with a line of strongstakes, interlaced . . . Maces, swords, helms of different hues, shields that will be riven and shattered as soon as the fight begins; and many vassals struck down together; and the horses of the dead and wounde droving at random. And when battle is joined, let all men of good lineage think of nought but the breaking of heads and arms: I tell you I find no such savour in food or in wine or in sleep as in hearing the shout "On!On!" from both sides, and the neighing of steeds that have lost their riders, and the cries of "Help! Help!"; and in seeing men great and smal lgo down on the grass beyond the fosses; in seeing at last the dead, with the pennoned stumps of lances still in their sides.' These robust knights were actively encouraged by the young King Henry. He was handsome, charming and beloved of all, but also feckless and thoughtless -- far keener on tournaments and frivolity than the serious business of government. Then in the midle of his new rebellion he caught disentery and shortly died. His devoted followers were thunderstruck --one young lad actually pined to death -- and the rebellion fizzled out. The young king was dead, but Henry, wary of previous errors, was not going to rush into making a new one. He called his favourite youngest son, John, to his side and ordered Richard to give his duchy into his brother's hands. Richard -- his mother's favourite -- had made Aquitainehis home and worked hard to establish his control there; he refused to give his mother's land to anyone, unless it were back to Eleanor herself. Henry packed John off to Ireland (which he speedily turned against himself) whilst he arranged to get Eleanor out of her prison and bringher to Aquitaine to receive back the duchy. Meanwhile the new King of France, Philip, was planning to renew the attack on English territories,all the while the three, Henry, Richard, and Philip, were supposed to be planning a joint crusade. In 1188 Henry, already ill with the absessed anal fistula that was to cause him such an agonising death, refused pointblank to recognise Richard as his heir. The crazy project for substituting John was at the root of it all, though Henry may have deluded himself into thinking he was playing his usual canny hand. . | England, Henry II "Plantagenet" King of (I2043)
