King Edward I of England (June 17, 1239 - July 7, 1307), popularly know n as "Longshanks" and "Hammer" of the Scots", is best known as the king w ho conquered Wales and kept Scotland under English domination. He lived f rom 1239 to 1307, ascending to the throne of England on November 21, 12 72 after the death of his father, King Henry III of England.
Edward was born at the Palace of Westminster on June 17 or 18, 1239. He m arried twice. His first marriage to Eleanor of Castile produced sixteen c hildren, and when Eleanor died in 1290, Edward was heartbroken. He disp layed his grief by erecting the Eleanor crosses, one at each place wher e her funeral cortege stopped for the night. His second marriage to Mar guerite of France, the daughter of King Philippe III of France, produce d a further three children.
Edward's character greatly contrasted that of his father's, who reigned E ngland throughout Edward's childhood and was always inclined to favour c ompromise with his opponents. As an adult, Edward was an impatient man, d isplaying considerable military prowess at defeating Simon de Montfort a t the Battle of Evesham in 1265 and treating the rebels with great sava gery. He relentlessly pursued the surviving members of the de Montfort f amily, who were his cousins.
In 1275, pirates in Edward's pay intercepted a ship carrying Eleanor de M ontfort, Simon's only daughter, from France, where her family had been i n exile to Wales, where she was to marry Llywelyn the Last, then ruler o f the principality. The marriage had been arranged when there was still s ome political advantage to be obtained from an alliance with Simon de M ontfort. However, Llywelyn wanted the marriage largely to antagonise hi s long-standing enemy, Edward. By hijacking the ship, Edward seized Ele anor, and imprisoned her at Windsor until Llywelyn would concede his te rms for peace in 1278. Unexpectedly, Llywelyn's younger brother, Dafydd ( who had briefly been an ally of the English) started another rebellion i n 1282. Llywelyn was killed shortly afterwards in a skirmish. Subsequen tly, Edward destroyed the remnants of resistance, capturing and executi ng Dafydd in the following year. To consolidate his conquest, he built a n etwork of stone castles throughout the principality, of which the best k nown this day is Caernarfon. Wales was incorporated into England under t he Statute of Rhuddlan in 1284.
To finance his war to conquer Wales, Edward I taxed the Jewish moneylen ders. However, the cost of Edward's ambitions soon drained the money-le nders dry. Anti-Semitism, a long existing attitude, increased substanti ally and when the Jews could no longer pay, they were accused of disloy alty. Already restricted to a limited number of occupations, Edward abo lished the Jews right to lend money. Like all racism, it evolved until t he King decreed that the Jews were a threat to the country and were res tricted as to their movements and activities. Edward decreed that all J ews must wear a yellow patch in the shape of a star attached to their o uter clothing so that they could be identified in public, an idea Adolf H itler would adopt 650 years later.
Under King Edward's persecution of the Jews, he arrested all the heads o f Jewish households. Over 300 were taken to the tower of London and exe cuted while others were murdered in their homes. Finally in 1290, the K ing banished all Jews from the country.
Edward then turned his attentions to Scotland and on May 10, 1291 Scott ish nobles recognized the authority of Edward I. He had planned to marr y off his son to the child queen, Margaret I of Scotland but when Marga ret died he was invited by the Scottish nobles to select her successor f rom the various claimants to the throne, and he chose John Balliol over R obert Bruce (father of Robert I of Scotland. Opposition sprang up (see W ars of Scottish Independence), and Edward mercilessly executed the focu s of discontent, William Wallace, in 1305, having earlier defeated him a t the Battle of Falkirk (1298). His plan to unite the two countries nev er came to fruition, and he died at the Scottish border while on his wa y to wage another campaign against the Scots, who were energized by Wal lace's martyrdom under the leadership of Robert the Bruce.
Edward died in 1307 at Burgh-on-Sands, Northumberland and was buried at W estminster Abbey. He was succeeded by his son, King Edward II of Englan d.

Edward I "Longshanks" King Of England [Parents] [scrapbook] 1 was born o n 17 Jun 1239 in , Westminster, Middlesex, England. He was christened o n 21 Jun 1239 in , Westminster, Middlesex, England. He died on 7 Jul 13 07 in , Burgh-On-The-Sands, Cumberland, England. He was buried on 28 Oc t 1307 in Westminster Abbey, Westminister, Middlesex, England. He marri ed Leonor Princess Of Castile And LbEON on 18 Oct 1254 in , Burgos, Bur gos, Spain.
Edward I, nicknamed "Longshanks" due to his great height and statur e, was perhaps the most successful of the medieval monarchs. The first t wenty years of his reign marked a high point of cooperation between cro wn and community. In these years, Edward made great strides in reformin g government, consolidating territory, and defining foreign policy. He p ossessed the strength his father lacked and reasserted royal prerogativ e. Edward fathered many children as well: sixteen by Eleanor of Castill e before her death in 1290, and three more by Margaret.
Edward held to the concept of community, and although at times unsc rupulously aggressive, ruled with the general welfare of his subjects i n mind. He perceived the crown as judge of the proper course of action f or the realm and its chief legislator; royal authority was granted by l aw and should be fully utilized for the public good, but that same law a lso granted protection to the king's subjects. A king should rule with t he advice and consent of those whose rights were in question. The level o f interaction between king and subject allowed Edward considerable leew ay in achieving his goals.
Edward I added to the bureaucracy initiated by Henry II to increase h is effectiveness as sovereign. He expanded the administration into four p rincipal parts: the Chancery, the Exchequer, the Household, and the Cou ncil. The Chancery researched and created legal documents while the Exc hequer received and issued money, scrutinized the accounts of local off icials, and kept financial records. These two departments operated with in the king's authority but independently from his personal rule, promp ting Edward to follow the practice of earlier kings in developing the H ousehold, a mobile court of clerks and advisers that traveled with the k ing. The King's Council was the most vital segment of the four. It cons isted of his principal ministers, trusted judges and clerks, a select g roup of magnates, and also followed the king. The Council dealt with ma tters of great importance to the realm and acted as a court for cases o f national importance.
Edward's forays into the refinement of law and justice had importan t consequences in decreasing feudal practice. The Statute of Gloucester ( 1278) curbed expansion of large private holdings and established the pr inciple that all private franchises were delegated by, and subordinate t o, the crown. Royal jurisdiction became supreme: the Exchequer develope d a court to hear financial disputes, the Court of Common Pleas arose t o hear property disputes, and the Court of the King's Bench addressed c riminal cases in which the king had a vested interest. Other statutes p rohibited vassals from giving their lands to the church, encouraged pri mogeniture, and established the king as the sole person who could make a m an his feudal vassal. In essence, Edward set the stage for land to beco me an article of commerce.
Edward concentrated on an aggressive foreign policy. A major campai gn to control Llywelyn ap Gruffydd of Wales began in 1277 and lasted un til Llywelyn's death in 1282. Wales was divided into shires, English ci vil law was introduced, and the region was administered by appointed ju stices. In the manner of earlier monarchs, Edward constructed many new c astles to ensure his conquest. In 1301, the king's eldest son was named P rince of Wales, a title still granted to all first-born male heirs to t he crown. Edward found limited success in extending English influence i nto Ireland: he introduced a Parliament in Dublin and increased commerc e in a few coastal towns, but most of the country was controlled by ind ependent barons or Celtic tribal chieftains. He retained English holdin gs in France through diplomacy, but was drawn into war by the incursion s of Philip IV in Gascony. He negotiated a peace with France in 1303 an d retained those areas England held before the war.
Edward's involvement in Scotland had far reaching effects. The coun try had developed a feudal kingdom similar to England in the Lowlands t he Celtic tribal culture dispersed to the Highlands. After the death of t he Scottish king, Alexander III, Edward negotiated a treaty whereby Mar garet, Maid of Norway and legitimate heir to the Scottish crown, would b e brought to England to marry his oldest son, the future Edward II. Mar garet, however, died in 1290 en route to England, leaving a disputed su ccession in Scotland; Edward claimed the right to intercede as feudal l ord of the Scottish kings through their Anglo-Norman roots. Edward arbi trated between thirteen different claimants and chose John Baliol. Bali ol did homage to Edward as his lord, but the Scots resisted Edward's de mands for military service. In 1296, Edward invaded Scotland and soundl y defeated the Scots under Baliol Ð Baliol was forced to abdicate and t he Scottish barons did homage to Edward as their king. William Wallace i ncited a rebellion in 1297, defeated the English army at Stirling, and h arassed England's northern counties. The next year, Edward defeated Wal lace at the Battle of Falkirk but encountered continued resistance unti l Wallace's capture and execution in 1304. Robert Bruce, the grandson o f a claimant to the throne in 1290, instigated another revolt in 1306 a nd would ultimately defeat the army of Edward II at Bannockburn. Edward 's campaigns in Scotland were ruthless and aroused in the Scots a hatre d of England that would endure for generations.
Edward's efforts to finance his wars in France and Scotland straine d his relationship with the nobility by instituting both income and per sonal property taxes. Meetings of the King's Great Council, now referre d to as Parliaments, intermittently included members of the middle clas s and began curtailing the royal authority. Parliament reaffirmed Magna C arta and the Charter of the Forest in 1297, 1299, 1300, and 1301; it wa s concluded that no tax should be levied without consent of the realm a s a whole (as represented by Parliament).
Edward's character found accurate evaluation by Sir Richard Baker, i n A Chronicle of the Kings of England: He had in him the two wisdoms, n ot often found in any, single; both together, seldom or never: an abili ty of judgement in himself, and a readiness to hear the judgement of ot hers. He was not easily provoked into passion, but once in passion, not e asily appeased, as was seen by his dealing with the Scots; towards whom h e showed at first patience, and at last severity. If he be censured for h is many taxations, he may be justified by his well bestowing them; for n ever prince laid out his money to more honour of himself, or good of hi s kingdom."
