William (17 August 1153 - April 1156) was the first child of Henry Plantagenet (later Henry II of England) and Eleanor of Aquitaine. He was born in Normandy on the same day that his father's rival, Eustace IV of Boulogne, died.
William was a younger maternal half-brother of Marie de Champagne and Alix of France. He was an older brother of Henry the Young King, Matilda, Duchess of Saxony, Richard I of England, Geoffrey II, Duke of Brittany, Leonora of Aquitaine, Joan Plantagenet and John of England.
He died in April 1156, aged two years due to a seizure at Wallingford Castle and was buried in Reading Abbey at the feet of his great-grandfather Henry I.
At the time of his death, he had already been given the title of Count of Poitiers. For centuries, the dukes of Aquitaine had held this as one of their minor titles, so it had passed to Eleanor from her father; giving it to her son was effectively a revival of the title, separating it from the dukedom. Some authorities say he also held the title of "Archbishop of York", but this is probably an error. His half-brother Geoffrey Plantagenet (died 1212), who was born within months of William, did later hold that office, causing the confusion.

Roger Clarendon was Prince Edward's son by Edith de Willesford (Calendar of Patent Rolls, 1381-1385
(1897). Edith was living as late as May 8 1385. Proof of Roger's paternity comes from several contemporary sources, notably the register of the Guild of the Holy Trinity, which describes him as "Dominus Rogerus de Claryngdon, miles, filius excellentissimi domini nostri, Princicipis Wall." Perhaps Roger was born at the royal palace of Clarendon, Wiltshire, from whence he derived his surname.
In 1372, his grandfather Edward III granted Roger an annuity of £100 at the Exchequer. Edward the Black Prince bequeathed Roger a silk bed in his will, but did not specifically name him as his son. Roger married Margaret, the heiress of the Welsh barony of Roch, but they had no children and she was dead as of March 20 1386. Two years later, Roger killed Sir William Drayton in a duel, and was indicted for murder, but fled and became a fugitive for several years. In 1402, he was captured and accused of conspiracy against King Henry IV -- allegedly he had been spreading rumors that his half-brother, Richard II, was still alive. He was executed at Tyburn.

Edward V (2 November 1470 - c.1483)[1] was King of England from his father Edward IV's death on 9 April 1483 until 26 June of the same year. He was never crowned, and his 86-day reign was dominated by the influence of his uncle and Lord Protector, Richard, Duke of Gloucester, who succeeded him as Richard III on 26 June 1483; this was confirmed by the Act entitled Titulus Regius, which denounced any further claims through his father's heirs. Edward and his younger brother Richard of Shrewsbury, Duke of York were the Princes in the Tower who disappeared after being sent to heavily guarded royal lodgings in the Tower of London. Responsibility for their deaths is widely attributed to Richard III, but the lack of any solid evidence and conflicting contemporary accounts suggest four other primary suspects.
Along with Edward VIII, and the disputed Matilda and Jane, Edward V is one of four English monarchs since the Norman Conquest never to have been crowned. As it is generally assumed that he died close to the time of his disappearance, he is the shortest-lived male monarch in English history - his great-nephew, who was crowned Edward VI, died in his sixteenth year.

The future King Richard II was born at Bordeaux, Aquitaine, at epiphany, on 6th January, 1367. The product of a first cousin marriage, he was the son of Edward III's eldest son, Edward, Prince of Wales, the Black Prince and his wife, Joan, Countess of Kent. Joan, known as the 'Fair Maid of Kent', was the daughter of Edmund, Earl of Kent, the youngest of Edward I's sons by his second wife, Margaret of France. This gave Richard a double descent from Edward I, due to previous cousin marriages in his family, his grandparents had also been first cousins, Richard was therefore a highly inbred individual.
His mother, Joan of Kent, has been described as one of the most beautiful and scandalous women of her age. Unusual for the day, Richard's parent's marriage was a genuine love match and not a political alliance. Joan of Kent had previously been married to Thomas Holland and through this former marriage, Richard had half siblings.
Joan caused quite a scandal by entering into a clandestine marriage with Holland at the age of twelve. The following winter, while her husband was serving abroad, Joan married again to William Montacute, the Earl of Salisbury's heir. When Holland returned to England a few years later, he revealed his secret marriage to Joan and appealed to Pope Clement VI for his wife's return, Joan supported his appeal. Salisbury resorted to keeping her a prisoner in his home. The Pope annulled Joan's marriage to Montacute and ordered to return to Thomas Holland, with whom she lived for the next eleven years. The marriage produced four children.
Richard had an elder brother, Edward of Angouleme, who was suspected of being mentally retarded, perhaps due to inbreeding in the Plantagenet family. Edward had died in infancy, leaving Richard his father's sole heir.

Isabella of Valois the second wife of Richard II was born in Paris on 9 November 1389 and was the daughter King Charles VI of France and his wife Isabeau of Bavaria.
Isabella was born at a time of political tension between England and its traditional rival France, which was exacerbated by the mental instability of her father, Charles VI, who is believed to have suffered from a form of schizophrenia (later inherited by his English grandson Henry VI) .
Negotiations between England and France were slow but both countries eventually agreed on a twenty-eight year truce in March 1396. The English ambassadors requested to see Isabella, in order to report on her appearance and conduct to their king, which was allowed, although the French, concerned by Isabella's youth pointed out:-
That they muste be content howe so ever they founde her, for they sayde she was but a yonge chylde of eyght yere of age, wherefore they sayd, there coulde nat be in her no great wysdome nor prudence; howbeit, she was indoctryned well ynough, and that the lords founde well whan they sawe her. The erle Marshall, beynge on his knees, sayde to her: Fayre lady, by the grace of God ye shall be our lady and quene of Englande. Than aunswered the yonge lady well advisedly, without counsayle of any other persone: Syr, quod she, and it please God and my lorde my father that I shall be quene of Englande, I shall be glad therof, for it is shewed me that I shall be than a great lady'.
Richard travelled to France, to meet his prospective bride and her father at Calais, after dinner, Isabella was led into the room accompanied by a great number of ladies and was ceremonially handed over to her new husband. On 31 October 1396, the six year old Isabella was married to King Richard II of England at Calais, the new queen was provided with a huge dowry by the French.
Richard was a widower, his previous wife, Anne of Bohemia, to whom he had been married since his teeenage years, had died in an outbreak of plague two years previously. Richard was said to be kind and affectionate to his child bride and visited her regularly. When challenged on the wisdom of marrying a bride so far from being old enough for childbearing, Richard contended that she would become older with every day that passed.
Deposition of Richard IIIsabella was moved to Porchester Castle while Richard conducted a military campaign in Ireland to put down a rebellion there. Soon after he left for Ireland, England was invaded by his cousin, Henry of Bolingbroke, the exiled son of John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster. The regent, Richard's uncle, Edmund, Duke of York, had the Queen conveyed Wallingford Castle for her safety. Richard's throne was usurpedby Henry who was crowned as King Henry IV, Richard, returning from Ireland was captured in Wales on 20 August 1399 and imprisoned, he was later murdered at Pontefract Castle.
The young Queen Isabella, who was reportedly 'tourned and broken' was required by the new king to move out of Wallingford Castle and to reside in the Havering-atte-Bower, she was later moved again to Sunning near Reading. When her father the King of France received news of Richard's death he demanded that Isabella be returned to France, King Henry then made Isabella aware of his plan to marry her to his son and heir, Henry, Prince of Wales, the future Henry V, by which she finally realised that Richard was dead.
Loyal to Richard's memory, the ten year old Isabella absolutely refused to do so and instead she and her household went into mourning for her husband, ignoring the king's demands. 'estranged her selfe from all occasions of pleasure or comforte, and was accompanied with a heavy traine composed to sorrow both in behaviour and attire'. Despite her father's wish that she be returned to France, the French ambassadors had great difficulty in gaining access to her. Eventually Henry allowed her to return to France with the jewels and plate she had brought with her to England..
On 29 June 1406, at the age of fifteen, Isabella was married for a second time to her cousin Charles, Duke of Orléans. She died at the age of nineteen, a few hours after giving birth to her only child, a daughter, Joan, who married John II of Alençon in 1424.
Isabella was interred at the abbey of St.Laumer in Blois, her body was later transferred to the church of the Celestines in Paris.
Isabella's younger sister Catherine of Valois, was later to become Queen of England as the wife of Henry V. Folowing the death of Henry V, Catherine's son by Owen Tudor was to become the ancestor of England's Tudor dynasty.
