Eadward King of England
(1) died in 924. Edward the Elder (died
924), king of Wessex (899-924), son of King Alfred. He succeeded as king of the
Angles and Saxons in 899, despite a rebellion led by his cousin Ethelwald with
the support of the Danes of Northumbria and East Anglia. After a protracted struggle
he defeated the Danes, and in 912, on the death of his brother-in-law Ethelred,
alderman of Mercia, he annexed the cities of London and Oxford and their environs.
The Danes submitted formally in 918, and soon thereafter the sovereignty of Edward
was acknowledged by the North Welsh, the Scots, the Northumbrians, and the Welsh
of Strathclyde. Edward was succeeded by his son Athelstan. Parents:

King of the English(1) died in 839.
Egbert (775?-839), king of Wessex (802-39), and the first Saxon king recognized as sovereign of all England (828-39). He was the son of a Kentish noble but claimed descent from Cerdic (reigned 519-34), founder of Wessex, the kingdom of the West Saxons in southern England. During the late 8th century, when King Offa of Mercia (reigned 757-96) ruled most of England, Egbert lived in exile at the court of Charlemagne. Egbert regained his kingdom in 802. He conquered the neighboring kingdoms of Kent, Cornwall, and Mercia, and by 830 he was also acknowledged as sovereign of East Anglia, Sussex, Surrey, and Northumbria and was given the title of Bretwalda (Anglo-Saxon, ruler of the British). During succeeding years Egbert led expeditions against the Welsh and the Vikings. The year before his death he defeated a combined force of Danes and Welsh at Hingston Down in Cornwall. He was succeeded by his son Ethelwulf, the father of Alfred. Children were: Aethelwulf King of Wessex. Edward
died in 1057. Parents: Eadmund II Ironside and
Ealdgyth.Children were: St. Margaret. Edward
I King of England(1) was born in 1239.
He died in 1307. Edward I, called Longshanks (1239-1307), king of England (1272-1307),
of the house of Plantagenet. He was born in Westminster on June 17, 1239, the
eldest son of King Henry III, and at 15 married Eleanor of Castile. In the struggles
of the barons against the crown for constitutional and ecclesiastical reforms,
Edward took a vacillating course. When warfare broke out between the crown and
the nobility, Edward fought on the side of the king, winning the decisive battle
of Evesham in 1265. Five years later he left England to join the Seventh Crusade.
Following his father's death in 1272, and while he was still abroad, Edward was
recognized as king by the English barons; in 1273, on his return to England,
he was crowned.
The first years of Edward's reign were a period of the consolidation of his power. He suppressed corruption in the administration of justice, restricted the jurisdiction of the ecclesiastical courts to church affairs, and eliminated the papacy's overlordship over England. On the refusal of Llewelyn ab Gruffydd, ruler of Wales, to submit to the English crown, Edward began the military conflict that resulted, in 1284, in the annexation of Llewelyn's principality to the English crown. In 1290 Edward expelled all Jews from England. War between England and France broke out in 1293 as a result of the efforts of France to curb Edward's power in Gascony. Edward lost Gascony in 1293 and did not again come into possession of the duchy until 1303. About the same year in which he lost Gascony, the Welsh rose in rebellion. Greater than either of these problems was the disaffection of the people of Scotland. In agreeing to arbitrate among the claimants to the Scottish throne, Edward, in 1291, had exacted as a prior condition the recognition by all concerned of his overlordship of Scotland. The Scots later repudiated him and made an alliance with France against England. To meet the critical situations in Wales and Scotland, Edward summoned a parliament, called the Model Parliament by historians because it was a representative body and in that respect was the forerunner of all future parliaments. Assured by Parliament of support at home, Edward took the field and suppressed the Welsh insurrection. In 1296, after invading and conquering Scotland, he declared himself king of that realm. In 1298 he again invaded Scotland to suppress the revolt led by Sir William Wallace. In winning the Battle of Falkirk in 1298, Edward achieved the greatest military triumph of his career, but he failed to crush Scottish opposition. The conquest of Scotland became the ruling passion of his life. He was, however, compelled by the nobles, clergy, and commons to desist in his attempts to raise by arbitrary taxes the funds he needed for campaigns. In 1299 Edward made peace with France and married Margaret, sister of King Philip III of France. Thus freed of war, he again undertook the conquest of Scotland in 1303. Wallace was captured and executed in 1305. No sooner had Edward established his government in Scotland, however, than a new revolt broke out and culminated in the coronation of Robert Bruce as king of Scotland. In 1307 Edward set out for the third time to subdue the Scots, but he died en route near Carlisle on July 7, 1307. Parents: Henry III King of England and Eleanor of Provence .
