House of Plantagenet survives

BS. No way is Tewkesbury a real place!

It's literally quarter of an hour drive from my front door. There's been a settlement there for about 1400 years. has an annual festival where they reenact the battle of Tewkesbury from the Wars of the Roses.

And if you don't believe in Tewkesbury, what about Shavington cum Gresty in Cheshire, or Elmstone Hardwick or Upton St Leonards (both in Gloucestershire)...

And on and on. We have great names.
 
House of York:

Edward IV of England (b.1442: d. 1483) m Elizabeth Woodville (b. 1437: d. 1492)

Children:

Edward V of England (b.1466: d. 1526)

Mary of York (b. 1467: d. 1482)

Cecily of York (20 March 1469 – 24 August 1507),

Richard, Duke of York (17 August 1473: d. 1523)

Anne of York (2 November 1475: d 1511)


Catherine of York (14 August 1479: d. 1527)

Edward's survival s going to have large repercussions. Two years after Edward's death, a feudal revolt happened in France (the Mad War), one of its participants was Francis II, Duke of Britanny, which daughter Anne was planned to marry Edward of Wales and also, the Treaty of Arras between France and the Habsburgs broke the betrothal between Charles VIII and Elizabeth of York, which may lead Edward to be even more pissed.

More importantly, Edward was surely planning an alliance system like the Habsburg-Trastamara one to encircle France.

Anne was promised to Philip the Handsome, Cecily could be shipped to Scotland for James IV and Catherine can marry John of Asturias.

With this timeline Edward v being born in 1466 and Anne is f Brittany being born in 1477 would such a betrothal still occur?

A very interesting tree there. Just one small thing, wasn't Philippa Mortimer Edward's great niece? What leads to a marriage there?
