I'm sure I started yesterday's... obviously I didn't get around to posting it.

Also, apparently the auto-email thing doesn't believe in BST...

Died yesterday in 1137 aged 38 Duke William X of Aquitaine (my toy,wikipedia). Father of Eleanor, wife of Henry II.

I've got no-one born on the 19th April; out of 1767 people with known birthdays. I'm not sure if this is especially unlikely.

Died on this day in 1578 aged 33 Lady Mary Grey (my toy,wikipedia). Sister of Jane Grey. Since Queen Elizabeth had no children the surviving Grey sisters were her heirs - both married without permission, and were arrested for doing so.

Born on this day in 1884 to Duke Alfred of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha and Grand Duchess Maria of Russia, Princess Beatrice of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (my toy,wikipedia). Grand-daughter of Queen Victoria. Beatrice married into the Spanish royal family and converted to Catholicism.
