Narrative

Reigned 1216-1272. A minor when he took the throne, he did not take the reins 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 renounced by Henry. Simon de Montford lead a rebellion against the King (the Barons Wars) which was defeated after initial success, thereafter Henry ceded much of his power to his son (Edward Longshanks].

Burke says he was born 10/10/1206 and married 1/14, crowned 1216.

Another source says died 12/12/1782 in Bury St. Edmonds, Suffolk, England.
