eoffrey
lantagenet,
by name Geoffrey The FAIR, French Geoffroi Plantagenet, or
Geoffroi le Bel, was
born Aug. 24, 1113 to King Fulk of Jerusalem and his wife
Bertrada. On May 22, 1127 he married Mathilda or Maud (as she is
sometimes known), Empress of England who was born in 1104 and
died on September 10, 1167. Mathilda was the only surviving
legitimate child of King Henry I of England. After the death of
Henry I in 1135, Geoffrey laid claim to Normandy through his
wife Mathilda. During this time Mathilda attempted the conquest
of England from her cousin King Stephen who had gained the
crown. Geoffrey did not accompany her, as he was still engaged
in the conquest of Normandy which he ultimately completed in
1144. In 1147 he undertook a crusade with King Louis VII of
France. In 1150, Geoffrey and Matilda ceded Normandy to their
son Henry (later King Henry II of England), who founded the
English Angevin dynasty. Geoffrey died September 7, 1151 and is
buried in St. Julian's Church, Le Mans, Anjou, France.
Incidentally, the earliest known coat of arms was given by Henry
I of England to his son in law Geoffrey Plantagenet count of
Anjou, father of Henry II, in 1127.
