BIOGRAPHY
Geoffrey's father, Fulk V, had married the daughter and heir of the Count of Maine and so the two counties were united. The year 1127 was an
important year for the fourteen-year-old Geoffrey 'the Fair' as he was married to the widowed Empress Matilda, heir to the King of England. In 1128 a
deputation from the Holy Land came to Paris to ask King Louis VII for a nobleman to marry Melisende, daughter and heir of King Baldwin II. Fulk V, a
widower, was chosen and left Anjou and Maine to Geoffrey while he married Melisende in 1129, then became King of Jerusalem in 1131.
Although Geoffrey and the much older Matilda disliked each other, he nevertheless fathered three sons. He was confronted by unruly vassals which
included his own younger brother Helie, who was eventually captured and imprisoned at Tours. When released, Helie died of a disease contracted in
prison.
In 1135 King Henry I of England died and his wife's cousin, Stephen de Blois, seized the crown. Geoffrey campaigned in Normandy on Matilda's behalf
but even his fourth campaign in 1138 was no success. In 1139 Matilda invaded England and in 1141 imprisoned Stephen, after which many castles in
Normandy surrendered to Geoffrey. In 1144, after the fall of Rouen, Geoffrey was invested as Duke of Normandy.
From 1147 until 1149 he went on crusade with King Louis VII of France. In 1150 he passed the Duchy of Normandy to his eldest son, Henry. Geoffrey
died on 7 September 1151 and was buried in the Cathedral of Le Mans (van de Pas .). , b. on 24 Aug 1113 Anjou, Fr. , m. Mahaut Emp.Germany

Matilda was born in Winchester about 1102 and may have been a twin with her brother, William. Diplomacy had her engaged in 1109 to Emperor
Heinrich V and she was married to him in 1114 when just over ten years old. Eleven years later the Emperor died, leaving her a childless widow.
In 1120 her brother drowned and, in 1126, she was declared heir to her father. In the following year her father married off the Empress, then about
twenty-four years of age, to the fourteen-year-old Geoffrey, Count of Anjou. Although apparently somewhat reluctant, she nevertheless bore three sons
to him.
In 1135 her father died and she was supposed to have become Queen-regnant. However, her cousin, Stephen de Blois, stepped in and, even though
he had sworn to support Matilda, went to London where, with the support of the London citizens, he was crowned king on St. Stephen's Day 1135.
Pope Innocent II acknowledged Stephen who bribed a great many of the barons as well as Matilda's uncle, David I, King of Scots. In the ensuing civil
wars, Matilda was supported by her illegitimate half-brother, Robert, Earl of Gloucester. In February 1141, Stephen was captured and imprisoned at
Bristol and so, on 7 April 1141, Matilda was proclaimed 'Lady of the English'. However, Stephen's supporters captured the Earl of Gloucester and had
the two exchanged. Stephen had himself re-crowned and the civil war continued.
In 1144 Normandy was taken by Geoffrey of Anjou, Matilda's husband. In 1148 Stephen feuded with the pope and, in 1153, Matilda's son, Henry, by
now twenty years old, took Matilda's place while Matilda retired to Normandy. In 1153 a treaty was signed at Westminster by which it was decided that
Stephen would remain king for life and Henry would be his successor. In 1154 Stephen died and Matilda, who remained in Normandy, survived until
1167 when she died at Rouen (van de Pas .). , b. in Feb 1102 London, Eng. . . , d. on 10 Sep 1167 NotreDame, Rouen.
