  • Notes 
    • Reigned 1216-1272. Henry III was only nine years old at his accession in 1216, declaring himself of age in 1227. His grip on government and finance was weak and his dependence on foreign favorites generated resentment among the aristocracy, leading to the Marshal Rebellion of 1233-34.
      His marriage in 1236 to Eleanor of Provence didn't help, and his promise to assist the Pope in Sicily provoked the barons to issue the Provisions of Oxford, which limited the king's power. Henry renounced these and the second Barons' War broke out in 1264, during which he was captured with his eldest son Edward at the battle of Lewes by Simon de Montfort, who ruled briefly until he died at Evesham in August 1265.
      After that Henry played little part in government and was succeeded by his son King Edward I in 1272.

      From Tompsett:

      Reigned 1216-1272. A minor when he took the throne he did not take the reigns
      of Government himself until 1234. Baronian discontent simmered, boiling over
      in 1258 when Henry facing financial disaster attempted to raise large sums
      from his magnates. Reforms were agreed upon but then renouced by Henry. Simon
      de Montford lead a rebellion against the King (the Barons Wars) which was
      defeated after initial success, thereafter Hnery ceeded much of his power to
      his son. Burke say he was born 10 Oct 1206 and married 14 Jan, crowned 1216.
