Talk:Henry IV of England


Which Mortimer?

Was it Edmund Mortimer, 5th Earl of March or Roger Mortimer, 4th Earl of March who was heir presumptive to Richard II when Bolingbroke seized the crown? The different articles on the people in question seem to imply both... Fire Star 20:33, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)

It was definately Edmund because Roger died in 1398.



"and by-passing Richard’s heir-apparent Roger Mortimer" - I believe Mortimer was Heir Presumptive, not Heir Apparent; it's right in the related articles; changing it here. (preceding unsigned comment by Dispensa (talk · contribs) 22:27, 2005 October 8 (UTC))

born

When was Henry IV born? Some sources state like article 1367. But others give date in 1366. What date is correct?

Citation tag

I see @Векочел had put a citation needed tag about two years ago. I've taken this down as with 67 citations this seems to be fairly well cited as an article. If there are still citations needed by all means put the tag back up, but please say where this would be needed.
