REF: British Monarchy Official Website: Henry I was succeeded
by his nephew Stephen of Blois (reigned 1135-54), his only
legitimate son having drowned in the wreck of the White Ship
which sank in the English Channel in 1120. Although widely
preferred in England and Normandy as Henry's successor, Stephen
lacked ruthlessness and failed to inspire loyalty. Henry's
daughter, Matilda, invaded England in 1139 to claim the throne
and the country was plunged into civil war. Neither side was
strong enough to win and the war ended only in 1153 when
Matilda's son, Henry, Count of Anjou, was recognised as heir to
the throne.
