Died on this day in 1413 aged 45 King Henry IV of England (my toy,wikipedia). Henry (son of John of Gaunt) overthrew his cousin Richard II. Then he got to deal with lots of people trying to overthrow him. Payback eh?

Born on this day in 1469 to King Edward IV of England and Elizabeth Woodville, Cecily of York (my toy,wikipedia). Cecily was married to a Lancastrian noble, presumably as part of the desire to entrench the union of York and Lancaster. After he died she married a man she actually liked, and went to live a loooooong way from court, probably happier that way.

Was on phone, now corrected.
