Father Edward I, King of England, b. 17 - 18 Jun 1239, Westminster Palace, Westminster, London , d. 7 Jul 1307, Burgh by Sands, Cumbria (Age 68 years) Relationship Birth Mother Eleanor of Castile, Queen Consort of England, Countess de Ponthieu, b. Abt 1244, Lara Valley, Spain , d. 28 Nov 1290, Harby, Nottinghamshire, England (Age ~ 46 years) Relationship Birth Married 1 Nov 1254 Las Huelgas near Burgos - 16 children. The marriage was dynastic in its origin: Alfonso X, king of Castile, had meddled in the rebellion of his neighbor, the English duchy of Aquitaine (or Gascony) and thus won a bargaining chip with Henry III. In order to have Castile bow out of the Gascon troubles, Alfonso offered his half-sister's hand to Edward, but not without having him suitably endowed first. Realpolitik notwithstanding, the marriage of Edward and Eleanor was one of the great love matches of medieval Europe. [4]
