Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Eleanor Holland died in Oct 1405.

    Notes:

    First of her name. Not to be confused with her younger sister, also Eleanor Holland, who married Thomas Montagu.

    She is erroneously given in The Ancestry of Charles II (citation details below) as a daughter of Thomas Holand and Joan "The Fair Maid of Kent." They were her paternal grandparents, not her parents. This error was noted by Greg Cooke on soc.genealogy.medieval, 4 Mar 2019.

    Eleanor married Roger Mortimer about 7 Oct 1388. Roger (son of Edmund Mortimer and Philippe of Clarence) was born on 11 Apr 1374 in Usk, Monmouthshire, Wales; died on 20 Jul 1398 in Kells, Meath, Ireland; was buried in Wigmore Abbey, Herefordshire, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

    Notes:

    Duke of York. Often called "Richard Plantagenet," a surname which he actually used on occasion in his own lifetime, something not done by any other Plantagenet. Killed in the Battle of Wakefield.

    "[T]he most powerful subject in England, heir of the Mortimer claim to the crown, king's lieutenant in Normandy and Ireland, self-interest mingled in him with a love of justice and desire for administrative reform, he claimed the throne but was defeated and slain in battle." [The Ancestry of Charles II, King of England (citation details below)]

Johnson, Duke Richard of York, 1 n. 1, has 22 September, noting that it was on the feast of St. Maurice."
