Daughter of Edward the Elder. She was a nun at Winchester, and after her
death a cult started, but it's not at all clear what she is meant to have
*done*. This is her feast day.

Hainault, Edward the Black Prince (my

Son and heir of Edward III, he died before his father and was never King.

there, it may be dysentery caught on campaign that killed him
