  • Notes 
    • Edward I, called Longshanks (1239-1307), king of England (1272-1307), of the house of Plantagenet. He was born in Westminster on June 17, 1239, the eldest son of King Henry III, and at 15 married Eleanor of Castile. In the struggles of the barons against the crown for constitutional and ecclesiastical reforms, Edward took a vacillating course. When warfare broke out between the crown and the nobility, Edward fought on the side of the king, winning the decisive battle of Evesham in 1265. Five years later he left England to join the Seventh Crusade. Following his father's death in 1272, and while he was still abroad, Edward was recognized as king by the English barons; in 1273, on his return to England, he was crowned.
      He was the King that had William Wallace (Braveheart) executed.

      Edward I (17/18 June 1239 ? 7 July 1307), also known as Edward Longshanks and the Hammer of the Scots (Latin: Malleus Scotorum), was King of England from 1272 to 1307.
      ...
      First marriage

      By his first wife Eleanor of Castile, Edward had at least fourteen children, perhaps as many as sixteen. Of these, five daughters survived into adulthood, but only one son outlived his father, becoming King Edward II (1307? 1327). He was reportedly concerned with his son's failure to live up to the expectations of an heir to the crown, and at one point decided to exile the prince's favourite Piers Gaveston.

      Edward's children with Eleanor were:
      1. Katherine (before 17 June 1264 ? 5 September 1264), buried at Westminster Abbey.
      2. Joanna (Summer or January 1265 ? before 7 September 1265), buried in Westminster Abbey.
      3. John (13 July 1266 ? 3 August 1271), predeceased his father and died at Wallingford while in the custody of his granduncle Richard, Earl of Cornwall; buried at Westminster Abbey.
      4. Henry (6 May 1268 ? 14 October 1274), predeceased his father, buried in Westminster Abbey.
      5. Eleanor (c. 18 June 1269 ? 19 August 1298); in 1293 she married Henry III, Count of Bar, by whom she had two children, buried in Westminster Abbey.
      6. Juliana (after May 1271 ? 5 September 1271), born and died while Edward and Eleanor were in Acre.
      7. Joan of Acre (1272 ? 23 April 1307), married (1) in 1290 Gilbert de Clare, 6th Earl of Hertford, who died in 1295, and (2) in 1297 Ralph de Monthermer. She had four children by Clare, and three or four by Monthermer.
      8. Alphonso, Earl of Chester (24 November 1273 ? 19 August 1284), predeceased his father, buried in Westminster Abbey.
      9. Margaret (c.15 March 1275 ? after 11 March 1333), married John II of Brabant in 1290, with whom she had one son.
      10. Berengaria (May 1276 ? between 7 June 1277 and 1278), buried in Westminster Abbey.
      11. Daughter (December 1277 ? January 1278), buried in Westminster Abbey.
      12. Mary of Woodstock (11 March 1278 ? before 8 July 1332[260]), a Benedictine nun in Amesbury Priory, Wiltshire, where she was probably buried.
      13. Son (1280/81 ? 1280/81), predeceased his father; little evidence exists for this child.
      14. Elizabeth of Rhuddlan (c. 7 August 1282 ? 5 May 1316), married (1) in 1297 John I, Count of Holland, (2) in 1302 Humphrey de Bohun, 4th Earl of Hereford. The first marriage was childless; by Bohun she had ten children.
      15. Edward II (25 April 1284 ? 21 September 1327), succeeded his father as king of England. In 1308 he married Isabella of France, with whom he had four children.

      Second marriage
      By Margaret of France, Edward had two sons, both of whom lived to adulthood, and a daughter who died as a child. The Hailes Abbey chronicle indicates that John Botetourt may have been Edward's illegitimate son; however, the claim is unsubstantiated.

      His progeny by Margaret of France were:
      1. Thomas of Brotherton, 1st Earl of Norfolk (1 June 1300 ? 4 August 1338), buried in Bury St Edmunds Abbey. Married (1) Alice Hales, with issue; (2) Mary Brewes, no issue.
      2. Edmund of Woodstock, 1st Earl of Kent (5 August 1301 ? 19 March 1330), married Margaret Wake, 3rd Baroness Wake of Liddell, with issue.
      3. Eleanor (4 May 1306 ? August 1311).
