Mar. 5th, 2015 03:33 pmDied on this day in 1830 aged 62 Lady Augusta Murray(my toy,wikipedia). Wife of Prince Augustus (son of George III); except not, because their marriage was in contravention of the Royal Marriages Act. Augustus continued living with her anyway, until he was given a lot of money not to, and after that Augusta retained custody of their two children and was given 4,000 pounds a year to live on. I bet it really sucks to be told you can't marry the person you wanted to, not because they don't want to, but because the King Says No.
Born on this day in 1133 to Count Geoffrey V of Anjou and Empress Matilda King Henry II of England(my toy,wikipedia). Henry was the son of Matilda and Geoffrey of Anjou, he was born in France and grew up in his mother's household. Although Matilda lost to Stephen, the agreement reached was that Henry should be Stephen's heir, eventually Henry took England by force.
