Feb. 28th, 2015 12:00 amDied on this day in 1453 aged 53 Duchess Isabella of Lorraine(my
toy,wikipedia).
Mother of Margaret who married Henry VI. Isabella was Duchess of
Lorraine in her own right, and married Rene who was Duke of Anjou,
King of Naples, and King of Jerusalem (although it doesn't seem that
they did any Kinging there).
Born on this day in 1155 to King Henry II of England and Eleanor of
Aquitaine, Henry the young king(my
toy,
wikipedia).
Henry was crowned Junior King of the English following the French
fashion (AFAIK no other English monarch ever was) but died before his
father. He had an important role at the court of his father. He was
betrothed at the age of 5 to the daughter of the King of France and
married her 12 years later. In 1173 though he fell out with his
father and a civil war was started, after they were reconciled he
retreated from politics. Later they were fighting again, and the
young Henry was killed.
