Richard PLANTAGENET, (DUKE OF YORK)
Richard Plantagenet and his wife, Cecily Neville, lived during the 15th Century. They have been chosen to begin the "Royal Ancestors" pedigree because of their common descent from a host of kings and royal families, including King Edward III of England. They were also the parents of two English kings--Edward IV and Richard III--who ruled England from 1461 to 1485. The name "Plantagenet" comes from a long line of Plantagenet kings who ruled England for about 300 years. The "Neville" family was one of England's most influential families during the 14th and 15th centuries.
