Edmund, 2nd Earl of Cornwall
Edmund of Almain, Earl of Cornwall (26 December 1249 – 1300) was the 2nd Earl of Cornwall of the 7th creation.
==Early life==
Edmund was born at Berkhamsted Castle on 26 December 1249, the second and only surviving son of Richard, 1st Earl of Cornwall and his wife Sanchia of Provence, daughter of Ramon Berenguer, Count of Provence, and sister of Henry III's queen, Eleanor. He was baptised by his mother's uncle, Boniface of Savoy, Archbishop of Canterbury, and was named Edmund in honour of Saint Edmund of Abingdon, Boniface's predecessor as archbishop.
In 1257, Edmund joined his parents on their first visit to Germany, to pursue Richard's nominal title as king and claimant to the Holy Roman Empire, returning in January, 1259. In 1264, after his father's capture at the Battle of Lewes, Edmund was held prisoner with his father at Kenilworth Castle, being released in September 1265. He and his father returned to Germany in August 1268, and according to a semi-mythical account written many years later, acquired a relic of the blood of Jesus Christ previously belonging to Charlemagne, before returning to England in August 1269. He is said to have given part of this relic to the monks of his father's foundation at Hailes Abbey in Gloucestershire, following a ceremony in September 1270.
In February 1271, Edmund sailed with his cousin, Edmund Crouchback, to join the crusade of Lord Edward, Crouchback's elder brother. Edmund's father, Richard, already had one surviving son, Henry of Almain, fourteen years older than Edmund, who was originally destined to inherit Richard's lands and titles. On 13 March 1271, while attending mass at Viterbo, Henry was attacked and killed by his cousins Guy de Monfort and Simon the younger de Montfort, sons of Simon de Monfort, in revenge for the brutal deaths of their father and older brother at Evesham. Hearing of this, the King commanded Edmund not to proceed any further and to return to England.
