palaces owned and willed by his father

Edwards father was King Henry the eighth

of England and his mother was Jane

Seymour his father's third wife Edward

had two older half sisters Mary whose

mother was Catherine of Aragon and

Elizabeth whose mother was Anne Boleyn

both of his sisters were present for his

christening which took place on October

the 15th at his christening he would be

proclaimed both Duke of Cornwall and

Earl of Chester although the birth

itself had seemed a normal one the Queen

nevertheless died 12 days later from

presumed complications of the delivery

the assumption that Edward was a sickly

child has more recently been decided by

historians as not altogether true

although he may have suffered a

life-threatening Porton fever when he

was four years old he may actually have

been a normal healthy child Edward's

education was extensive placed in his

own household

Edward was initially paid for by

Margaret Bryan then Blanche Herbert

King Henry demanded absolute cleanliness

and exceedingly high standards of

security for his only son when he turned

six years old his education would begin

in earnest with lessons from Richard Cox

and John check his lessons included

languages French Spanish and Italian in

addition to scriptures and philosophy

liberal sciences geometry and learning

to play several musical instruments

Edward would also show a particular

aptitude towards Monetary Affairs it

would appear as his education continued

with his sister Elizabeth's own suitor

that an amount of competitiveness

emerged between Edward and his sister

Elizabeth and her own academic prowess

Edwards reign as King would begin on

January the 28th 1547 he was nine years

old he was collected from his home in

Hartford and escorted to Enfield where

Lady Elizabeth was living together they

were told of their father's death

King Edward was then escorted to the

Tower of London where he was welcomed

with much pomp and

the following day the narwhals of the

realm made their obeisance sticking

Edward the 6th of England his father

Henry the eighth

was laid to rest next to his beloved

wife Jane as he had wished

although Edward was crowned on February

the 20th 1547 at Westminster Abbey

he was obviously too young to take the

reins of the country under his own hand

so his uncle Edward Seymour was

appointed Lord Protector until his

execution and John Dudley replaced him

not as Lord Protector but Lord President

of the Council and great master of the

Kings household in 1553 King Edward the

6th became ill concern for his realm and

his crown his father's wishes before his

death to secure the succession meant

that King Edward did not want to see his

half-sister mary succeed him under his

father's rule both Mary and Elizabeth

were proclaimed legitimate which meant

they had no claim to the throne

this left Edward with only one course

Lady Jane Grey as a cousin once-removed

and who had married the Duke of

Northumberland's younger son Lord

Guilford Dudley would succeed King

Edward to the throne as the only

exception to the male rule King Edward's

health deteriorated further but he took

comfort in the knowledge his device for

the succession was in place in April he

decided to move to Greenwich palace he

was seen several times by the public

sitting in his window at Greenwich

palace on July the 6th 15:53 King Edward

the 6th lost his battle for life his

body was laid to rest at Henry the 7th

Slade II chapel at Westminster Abbey
