Henry "Henry the Young King" Plantagenet titular King of England, Duke of Normandy, Count of Anjou and Maine 1
General Notes: Henry the Young King (28 February 1155 \endash 11 June 1183) was the eldest surviving son of Henry II of England and Eleanor of Aquitaine. Beginning in 1170, he was titular King of England, Duke of Normandy, Count of Anjou and Maine. Henry the Young King was the only King of England since the Norman Conquest to be crowned during his father's reign, but was frustrated by his father's refusal to grant him meaningful autonomous power.[1][2] He died aged 28, six years before his father, leaving his brother Richard to become the next king. Henry married Margaret of France Queen of England and Hungary on 27 Aug 1172 in Winchester Cathedral Priory, Winchester, Kingdom of England. (Margaret of France Queen of England and Hungary was born in 1158 1 and died on 18 Sep 1197 in St John of Acre, Israel.) |
