Edward VI, In A Quick Overview

Edward VI's Signature

Edward VI was born on October 12, 1537 in Hampton Court Palace, in Middlesex England. He was the son of Jane Seymour and King Henry VIII. Soon after his birth, his mother became ill and died. He became King of England and Ireland on January 28 1547 after his father died. Since he was only 10 years old when he became King, Edward's uncle helped him rule. He reigned for six years until he died at 15. Lady Jane Grey was pronounced Queen four days after his death.




Sorry about not posting in a very long time! I'll try to keep you updated over the summer! :)
