The story of this house

# House of Plantagenet The Plantagenet line encompasses 78 individuals spanning an extraordinary chronological range, with births recorded from 1133 onward. Members of this house were typically born at significant royal residences, most commonly Windsor Castle, Woodstock Palace, and the Tower of London, though some arrivals occurred in regional centers like Gloucester and Bolingbroke Castle, and a notable few in continental locations such as Bordeaux. The geographic distribution of birthplaces suggests a family with holdings and interests across England and occasional Continental presence. Life expectancy within the line averaged 41 years, reflecting the considerable mortality challenges of the medieval period, though the longest-lived member reached 93 years—a remarkable age for the era. The consistent use of the Plantagenet surname across all 78 individuals in the dataset indicates a tight genealogical focus on this particular family line. The data suggests a substantial, documented family with sufficient historical records to track births across multiple centuries and generations, centered on prominent English royal and noble locations.
