Died on this day in 1444 aged 41 John Beaufort , 1st Duke of Somerset (my toy,wikipedia). Grand-father of Henry VII, grand-son of John of Gaunt. Seems to have been a mostly not very good military commander.

Born on this day in 1626 to Frederick Prince of Orange and Amalia of Solms-Braunfels, William II Prince of Orange (my toy,wikipedia). Father of William II & III, married to a daughter of Charles I. At this point the Netherlands was at war with Spain.
