Notes

King Henry III came to the throne in 1216 when he was only nine years old, but did not rule until he came of age in 1227. Henry was a fickle tyrant who surrounded himself with favorites from other countries. The English nobles revolted against his rule and the foreign influences in his court. They forced Henry to grant the Provisions of Oxford, which transferred governing powers to a committee of barons. Later, Henry broke the agreement and raised an army. But he was defeated and captured at the battle of Lewes in 1264.

Simon de Montfort, leader of the reform party, then governed England until he was killed at the battle of Evesham in 1265 by Henry's son, Edward. Edward ruled the country during the rest of Henry's lifetime.

Henry III King Of England was married at Cantebury Cathedral, Canterbury, Kent, England and was buried at Westminster Abbey where his altar-tomb and that of his wife can be seen today.

Stuart has birth date October 1207 and death 16 June 1272.
