On this day, February 19, 1594 ~ Birth of Henry Frederick, Prince of Wales, the son of King James I of England
Henry was extremely popular. And unlike his younger brother, he showed great promise as a leader. How different things may have turned out if he has been King Henry IX. And we never had Charles I. Or well not then. Sadly he died at 18. His death was highly mourned.
Guess also have to note 1960 Andrew Duke of York made his grand entrance.
Andrew was the first child born to a reigning monarch since the birth of Victoria's youngest daughter 103 years prior. Coincidentally Princess Beatrice, for whom Andrews eldest daughter was named.
