Edward VI (1537 – 1553). King of England and Ireland from 28 January
1547 until his death. He was crowned on 20 February at the age of nine.
Edward was the son of Henry VIII and Jane Seymour, and England's first
monarch to be raised as a Protestant. His sisters were Elizabeth I and Mary I.
- "Edward had the red hair
of the Tudors and had one shoulder somewhat higher than the other,
possibly a result of his difficult delivery." http://www.englishmonarchs.co.uk/tudor_6.htm
- "Elizabeth Jenkins has suggested that Edward looked like his sister
Elizabeth "they had the same reddish-blonde hair, pale face and
searching eyes, the same slight and upright figure." http://spartacus-educational.com/TUDedward6.htm
