Prince Henry Frederick (1594 – 1612)
|
Henry Frederick, Prince of Wales, KG was the eldest son and heir apparent of James VI and I, King of England and Scotland; and his wife Anne of Denmark. Prince Henry was widely seen as a bright and promising heir to his father's thrones. However, at the age of 18, he predeceased his father, dying of typhoid fever. Prince Henry immediately became Duke of Cornwall on his father's accession to the English throne in 1603. He was invested as Prince of Wales and Earl of Chester in 1610. It is likely that 1610 was when he was granted the manor of Bisley. Henry Frederick held the Manor of Bisley until his death in 1612. |
