Edward Courtenay, 1st Earl of Devon : ウィキペディア英語版 | Edward Courtenay, 1st Earl of Devon
Edward Courtenay, 1st Earl of Devon (c. 1527 – 18 September 1556) was an English nobleman during the rule of the Tudor dynasty. Born into a family with close royal connections, he was at various times considered a possible match for the two daughters of his first cousin once removed, Henry VIII, both of whom became queens regnant of England. == Life == Edward was the only son of Henry Courtenay, 1st Marquess of Exeter and his second wife, Gertrude, daughter of William Blount, 4th Baron Mountjoy. Edward's paternal grandmother, Catherine of York, was a daughter of Edward IV of England and a sister of Elizabeth of York, Queen of England. Edward was thus a first cousin once removed of King Henry VIII of England and Queen Margaret of Scotland, and a second cousin to (among others) James V of Scotland, Margaret Douglas, Mary I of England, Elizabeth I of England, Edward VI of England, Henry Brandon, 1st Earl of Lincoln, Lady Frances Brandon and Lady Eleanor Brandon. The first decade of Edward's life was relatively peaceful. His father was a prominent figure in the court and his mother enjoyed the friendship of Catherine of Aragon even after her removal from court and throne.
