After his release. he married Eleanor (Alianore) de Warren on 8 Sep 1268. they
had two sons John born in the year1270 and Henry born in 1273. Henry had
livery of his father's lands in 1249 and was accorded permission to marry as
he pleased, on payment of 900, a very large fine even for a baron. He
inherited little of his father's "faineant" nature, fighting valiantly in
Wales and Scotland. He married Lady Eleanor Plantagenet, niece of King Henry
III. This marriage knitted still closer the ties of relationship between the
family of Percy and the reigning house, as Eleanor's mother was half-sister to
King Henry III. Henry died in 1272 and was buried at Sawley Abbey as was his
widow, Eleanor (Alianore) de Warren.

Notes for Henry 9th Lord Percy 1st Baron Percy of Alnwick DE PERCY


-------------------------
Henry de Percy, 1st Baron Percy of Alnwick (1273-1314)[1] was a mediaeval
English magnate.

He fought under King Edward I of England in Wales and Scotland and was granted
extensive estates in Scotland, which were later retaken by the Scots under
King Robert I of Scotland. He added Alnwick to the family estates in England,
founding a dynasty of northern warlords. He rebelled against King Edward II
over the issue of Piers Gaveston and was imprisoned for a few months. After
his release he declined to fight under Edward II at the Battle of Bannockburn,
remaining at Alnwick, where he died a few months later, aged forty-one.

Origins

Henry was born at Petworth in Sussex on 25 March 1273, seven months after his
father's death, saving the family line from extinction, as two older brothers
had died in infancy, and all six uncles had died without leaving any
legitimate heir. He was fortunate in having the powerful Earl Warenne as his
maternal grandfather. Henry was the son of Henry de Percy (d.1272), 8th feudal
baron Baron Percy, Yorkshire, by his wife, Eleanor de Warenne, daughter of
John de Warenne, Earl of Surrey by Alice de Lusignan, Countess of Surrey, half
sister of Henry III. His great-great-grandfather was Jocelin de Louvain
(d.1180) who had married Agnes de Percy (d.1203), one of the two co-heiresses
of William II de Percy (d.1174/5), 3rd feudal baron of Topcliffe, whose
descendants had adopted the surname "de Percy."

------------------------
Henry Percy
Birth Mar 1273 Petworth, West Sussex, England
Death Oct 1314 Alnwick, Northumberland, England

1st Baron Percy of Alnwick
The son of Henry de Percy and Eleanor de Warenne, daughter of John de Warenne,
Earl of Surrey and Alice de Lusignan, half sister of Henry III.

Henry came from an eminent family and he would inherit the Earldom of Sussex.
His land holdings were extensive and included the purchase of Alnwick Castle
in 1309, establishing a dynasty of warlords in northern England. The castle
would remain in the Percy family to this day. Henry fought for King Edward I
of England against rebellions in Wales and in Scotland against William Wallace
and Robert the Bruce, estates granted to him in Scotland, the estates of
Ingram Balliol, were taken back by the Scottish King Robert I.

Henry was born at Petworth in Sussex posthumously, the only living son and
heir. Two brothers had died in infancy, all six uncles had no living heir. His
mother's father was John de Warenne, the prominent Earl of Surrey and grandson
of William Marshall. Henry inherited all the estates in 1293, which included
estates in Sussex, Yorkshire and Topcliffe Castle.

When Henry married Eleanor in 1294 at Alnwick, the daughter of Richard
FitzAlan, the Earl of Arundel, he changed his coat of arms to the Arundel lion
and the Warrene royal colors.

In 1296, Henry was with his grandfather, Warrene, and King Edward as they
surrounded Berwick. The conflict between Edward and John Lackland, and between
the French allied to the Scots and England over Aquitane boiled towards war.
Edward knighted Henry at Berwick on May 30th just before they took Berwick.
The town's reaction of scorn angered Edward that he ordered the death of 7,500
people, regardless of age or sex. Henry was then sent north to Dunbar where he
took the castle, and Scotland belonged to the English within weeks. King John
Balliol was removed, replaced by Warenne who would govern the entire province
while Henry Percy governed Ayr, Galloway and Cumberland.

The following year, the war with Wallace and Bruce commenced with the battle
of Sterling Bridge at the River Forth, where the English were badly defeated
and expelled from Scotland. Percy was among those who watched helplessly from
the castle. Edward returns from the wars in France, and caught up with Wallace
at Falkirk on July 22, 1298 where Henry Percy was part of the fourth reserve
cavalry. Henry Percy is known to have played a prominent role in the
negotiations between the Scots and Edward after Robert the Bruce changed his
support over to the English in 1304. On 25 March 1306 Robert Bruce was crowned
King of Scotland at Scone Abbey, upon which Edward confiscated his lands and
gave them to Henry Percy. The King now appointed Percy to command northwest
England and southwest Scotland, with orders to suppress the rebellion without
mercy.

When King Edward II favored Gaveston over his wife, he set off a chain of
events and scandal that resulted Percy being removed from Scarborough Castle,
and finally the execution of Gaveston by the barons at Warwick, Percy's arrest
and the forfeit of his lands July 28, 1312, despite that Percy did not
directly participate in the execution. Percy was formally pardoned and
released the following year.

Edward prepared for the Battle of Bannockburn, summoned Percy and five other
Earls who refused to participate, the English were completely defeated. Percy
stayed at Alnwick defending the castle against Scottish raiders, but lost a
friend, Robert Clifford in the battle. Percy died later that year of unknown
causes. He was fourty one.

Henry and Elianore had three children:
Alianore Percy m John FitzWalter
William de Percy 1301-1355
Sir Henry Percy, 2nd Lord Percy 1301-1352

Parents:
Henry De Percy (1235 - 1272)

Notes for Alisona DE SALUZZA


The name of Alice's birthplace in Italy is spelled in some odler sources as
Saluzza, but the town in spelled Saluzzo.

-----------------------------
Saluzzo (Italian pronunciation: [sa'luttso]) is a town and former principality
in the province of Cuneo, Piedmont region, Italy.

The city of Saluzzo is built on a hill overlooking a vast, well-cultivated
plain. Iron, lead, silver, marble, slate etc. are found in the surrounding
mountains. It has a population of approximately 17,000.

Saluzzo was the birthplace of the writer Silvio Pellico and of typographer
Giambattista Bodoni.

Saluzzo (Salusse in Piemontese, Saluces in French) was a civitas (tribal city
state) of the Vagienni, or mountain Ligures, and later of the Salluvii. This
district was brought under Roman control by the Consul Marcus Fulvius.

In the Carolingian age it became the residence of a count; later, having
passed to the Marquesses of Susa, Manfred I, son of Marquess Bonifacio del
Vasto, on the division of that principality became Marquess of Saluzzo; this
family held the marquisate of Saluzzo from 1142 to 1548.

The marquisate embraced the territory lying between the Alps, the Po and the
Stura, and was extended on several occasions. In the Middle Ages it had a
chequered existence, often being in conflict with powerful neighbours, chiefly
the Counts (later Dukes) of Savoy. After Manfred II's death, his widow had to
accept a series of tributes, which were to be later the base of the House of
Savoy's claims over the increasingly feebler marquises' territories. Thomas
III, a vassal of France, wrote the romance Le chevalier errant ('the
knight-errant').
