Died on this day in 1569 aged 46 John Grey (my toy,wikipedia). Great-grand-son of Elizabeth Woodville (wife of Edward IV, but by her first husband Sir John Grey). John is not interesting enough to merit a wikipedia page. He is a relative of Queen Jane Grey, who got her claim to the throne through her mother and the Grey name through her father.

Born on this day in 1600 to King James VI of Scotland & I of England and Anne of Denmark, King Charles I of England (my toy,wikipedia). Beheaded, after loosing the civil war to Oliver Cromwell. So... not very popular then.
