Notes for Edmund of_Langley Duke of York
It is the descendants of Edmund, Duke of York, that formed one faction in the War of the Roses. The Yorkists were represented by the white rose. The split was finally resolved when Henry Tudor, himself a Lancaster, married John of Gaunt's descendant, Elizabeth York, and joined the two houses of York and Lancaster.
