Second son of Henry III of England and Eleanor of Provence; 1st Earl of Lancaster (1267-1296). Pope Alexander III conferred the title of king of Sicily on him in 1255, but Henry III was unable to provide the money andmen Edmund needed to pursue the claim, and in 1263 he renounced the kingship. Edward I, Edmund's brother, created him earl of Lancaster in 1267. In 1271 Edmund went on a crusade in Palestine: his nickname, Crouchback, or crossed back, refers to his crusader's cross. He found against the Welsh (1277-82) and against the French in Gascony (1296). Edmund's great-great-grandson Henry IV, who became England's first Lancastrian king, claimed - on no strong evidence - that Edmund had been Henry III's eldest son, disinherited because of a hunched back.
