Henry, 3rd Earl of Lancaster of the 1267 creation (2nd son of Edmund Crouchback, 1st Earl of Lancaster, 2nd son of Henry III). [Burke's Peerage]caster, b. c 1281, d. 22 Sep 1345, son of Edmund Plantagenet and Blanche of Artois, and grandson of King Henry III of England and Eleanor of Provence. [Magna Charta Sureties]------------------------------------------------- -- -n 1298 and 1305.

In 1326 he took the lead in opposition to the rule of Queen Isabel and her paramour, ROGER MORTIMER, EARL OF MARCH (RIN 684). Early in the year 1330, following a slow degeneration of his vision, Henry became totally blind. Still, he persuaded the king of the necessity of getting rid of MORTIMER and was the mastermind of the plot which led to MORTIMER'S capture, trial, and execution late in the year. The Earl's blindness, which he bore with patience, forced him to retire from active life; he gave himself wholly to devotion.
