===============================================
Charles I (1600-1649)
Born at Dunfermline Castle, Scotland, the third child of James VI and I and Anne of Denmark and younger brother of Henry, prince of Wales and Elizabeth, future electress of the Palatinate and queen of Bohemia.
Made duke of Albany at his baptism and duke of York in 1605.
He became heir apparent following Henry’s premature death in 1612.
In 1616 he was created prince of Wales and in 1625, following his father’s death, became king of England, Scotland and Ireland.
He married Henrietta Maria in the same year, with whom he had two children: Charles, future king Charles II, and James, future king James II.
Charles’s reign was notoriously tumultuous, leading as it did to the English Civil War 1642-45 and Charles’s eventual execution for high treason in 1649.
