Henry VI (1422 – 1461 AD)
The infant Henry succeeded his father as King of England at the age of nine months; within weeks he also acquired the French throne on the death of Charles VI under the terms of the agreement between Phillippe of France and Henry’s father. Two of Henry’s uncles, John of Bedford and Humphrey of Gloucester, acted as regents and government was conducted through a royal council. When Henry came of age in 1437, he began to pursue a policy of peace with France with his marriage to Margaret of Anjou, the niece of the Valois King Charles VII of France. The marriage terms involved ceding some English-held territory (Maine and Anjou) to the French king, a concession which angered the English nobility. By 1450, Normandy had been lost and there were signs of rebellion in England; three years later, Bordeaux fell to the French leaving Calais as England’s only continental port.
