Henry III of Bar (Henri III de Bar, 1259 -Naples , September 1302 ) was Count of Bar from 1291 to 1302. He was son of Thibault II of Bar and Jeanne de Toucy.
Life
His introduction to military life came as he was made a knight in a conflict between his father and the Bishop of Metz . He then served Ferry III of Lorraine . He was preparing to go on crusade when his father died.
In 1284 Jeanne de Navarre , countess of Champagne, had married the future Philip IV of France , making the county of Bar adjacent to the French royal domain. Henry's reaction was a marriage to Eleanor , daughter of Edward I of England . When war broke out in short order between France and England, Henry was drawn in. The fighting ceased after the 1301 Treaty of Bruges . Under its terms, Henry gave up some fortresses and paid homage to Philip for part of his lands, then called the Barrois mouvant . He also undertook to fight in Cyprus against the Muslim forces.
Henry therefore made his way to the Kingdom of Naples . In assisting Charles II of Naples against the invading forces of Frederick I of Sicily , he was wounded in fighting, and died soon afterwards.
Family
He married at Bristol on 20 September 1283 Eleanor of England (1269-1298) , daughter of Edward I of England , and Eleanor of Castile . Their children were :

Research Notes: Wife - Eleanor of Lancaster
From Wikipedia - Eleanor of Lancaster :
Eleanor of Lancaster (sometimes called Eleanor Plantagenet 1) (about 1315 - 11 January 1372 ) was born as the fifth daughter of Henry, Earl of Lancaster (c. 1281-1345) and his wife Maud Chaworth (1282-1322).
First marriage and offspring
Sometime between September 1 and November 6 , 1330 , she married John de Beaumont, 2nd Lord Beaumont , son of Henry Beaumont, 4th Earl of Buchan (c. 1288 - 1340) and his wife Alice Comyn (c. 1291-1349). They had two children:
Henry Beaumont, 3rd Lord Beaumont , born 1340
Matilda Beaumont (died July 1467), married Hugh de Courtenay
Eleanor was a lady-in-waiting to Queen Philippa , and was in service to her in Ghent when her son Henry was born. John de Beaumont died in a tournament on 14 April 1342 .
Second marriage
On 5 February 1344 at Ditton Church , Stoke Poges , Buckinghamshire , she married Richard Fitzalan, 10th Earl of Arundel (9th Earl of Arundel per Ancestral Roots), 4th Earl of Surrey, known by the soubriquet of "Copped Hat", Justiciar of North Wales, Governor of Carnarvon Castle, Admiral of the West.2
His previous marriage, to Isabel le Despenser , had taken place when they were children. It was annulled by Papal mandate as she, since her father's attainder and execution, had ceased to be of any importance to him. Pope Clement VI obligingly annulled the marriage, bastardized the issue, and provided a dispensation for his second marriage to the woman with whom he had been living in adultery (the dispensation, dated 4 March 1344 /1345 , was required because his first and second wives were first cousins).
The children of Eleanor's second marriage were:
Richard (1346-1397), who succeeded as Earl of Arundel
John Fitzalan (bef 1349-1379)
Thomas Arundel , Archbishop of York (c. 1345-February 19 , 1413 )
Joan Fitzalan (bef. 1351-April 17 , 1419 ), married Humphrey de Bohun, 7th Earl of Hereford
Alice Fitzalan (1352 -March 17 , 1416 ), married Thomas Holland, 2nd Earl of Kent (Thomas Holand)
Eleanor died at Arundel and was buried at Lewes Priory in Lewes , Sussex , England. Her husband was buried beside her; in his will Richard requests to be buried "near to the tomb of Eleanor de Lancaster, my wife; and I desire that my tomb be no higher than hers, that no men at arms, horses, hearse, or other pomp, be used at my funeral, but only five torches...as was about the corpse of my wife, be allowed."

From Wikipedia - Richard FitzAlan, 10th Earl of Arundel :
Richard FitzAlan, 10th Earl of Arundel (c. 1307 - January 24, 1376) was an English nobleman and military leader.
Fitzalan was the eldest son of Edmund FitzAlan, 9th Earl of Arundel, and Alice Warenne. His maternal grandparents were William de Warenne, 8th Earl of Surrey and Joan de Vere. William was the only son of John de Warenne, 7th Earl of Surrey.
His birthdate is uncertain, but could not have been before 1307. Around 1321, FitzAlan's father allied with King Edward II's (also an ancestor) favorites, the Hugh le Despenser, 1st Earl of Winchester (also an ancestor) and his namesake son, and Richard was married to Isabel le Despenser, daughter of Hugh the Younger. Fortune turned against the Despenser party, and in 1326, FitzAlan's father was executed, and he did not succeed to his father's estates or titles.
However, political conditions had changed by 1330, and over the next few years Richard was gradually able to reacquire the Earldom of Arundel as well as the great estates his father had held in Sussex and in the Welsh Marches. Beyond this, in 1334 he was made justice of North Wales (later his term in this office was made for life), sheriff for life of Caernarvonshire, and governor of Caernarfon Castle.
His daughter Joan was the mother of Mary de Bohun who would marry King of England Henry IV.
Research Notes: Wife - Eleanor of Lancaster
From Wikipedia - Eleanor of Lancaster :
Eleanor of Lancaster (sometimes called Eleanor Plantagenet 1) (about 1315 - 11 January 1372 ) was born as the fifth daughter of Henry, Earl of Lancaster (c. 1281-1345) and his wife Maud Chaworth (1282-1322).
First marriage and offspring
Sometime between September 1 and November 6 , 1330 , she married John de Beaumont, 2nd Lord Beaumont , son of Henry Beaumont, 4th Earl of Buchan (c. 1288 - 1340) and his wife Alice Comyn (c. 1291-1349). They had two children:
Henry Beaumont, 3rd Lord Beaumont , born 1340
Matilda Beaumont (died July 1467), married Hugh de Courtenay
Eleanor was a lady-in-waiting to Queen Philippa , and was in service to her in Ghent when her son Henry was born. John de Beaumont died in a tournament on 14 April 1342 .
Second marriage
On 5 February 1344 at Ditton Church , Stoke Poges , Buckinghamshire , she married Richard Fitzalan, 10th Earl of Arundel (9th Earl of Arundel per Ancestral Roots), 4th Earl of Surrey, known by the soubriquet of "Copped Hat", Justiciar of North Wales, Governor of Carnarvon Castle, Admiral of the West.2
His previous marriage, to Isabel le Despenser , had taken place when they were children. It was annulled by Papal mandate as she, since her father's attainder and execution, had ceased to be of any importance to him. Pope Clement VI obligingly annulled the marriage, bastardized the issue, and provided a dispensation for his second marriage to the woman with whom he had been living in adultery (the dispensation, dated 4 March 1344 /1345 , was required because his first and second wives were first cousins).
The children of Eleanor's second marriage were:
Richard (1346-1397), who succeeded as Earl of Arundel
John Fitzalan (bef 1349-1379)
Thomas Arundel , Archbishop of York (c. 1345-February 19 , 1413 )
Joan Fitzalan (bef. 1351-April 17 , 1419 ), married Humphrey de Bohun, 7th Earl of Hereford
Alice Fitzalan (1352 -March 17 , 1416 ), married Thomas Holland, 2nd Earl of Kent (Thomas Holand)
Eleanor died at Arundel and was buried at Lewes Priory in Lewes , Sussex , England. Her husband was buried beside her; in his will Richard requests to be buried "near to the tomb of Eleanor de Lancaster, my wife; and I desire that my tomb be no higher than hers, that no men at arms, horses, hearse, or other pomp, be used at my funeral, but only five torches...as was about the corpse of my wife, be allowed."

Research Notes: Husband - Zerah King of Dardania
From Wikipedia - Zerah :
Zerah or Zérach ( / "Sunrise", Standard Hebrew Zéra / Zára, Tiberian Hebrew Zéra / Z) refers to five different people in the Bible .
The Cushite
Zerah the Cushite, is an individual mentioned by the Book of Chronicles as having invaded the Kingdom of Judah with an enormous army, in the days of Asa .[1] According to the text, when Zerah's army reached that of Asa at Zephathah ,[2] Zerah's army was utterly defeated, by divine intervention,[3] and Asa's forces collected a large volume of spoils of war.[4]
The invasion, and its implied time-frame, means that the traditional view was to consider this Zerah to have actually been Osorkon II or Osorkon I ,[5] both being rulers of Egypt . Osorkon II, is known to have entered the Kingdom of Judah, with a huge army, in 853BC; however, rather than attacking Judah, the army was just passing through, on its way to attack the Assyrian forces. In addition, Asa's reign is traditionally dated to have ended in 873BC, making it impossible for the biblical text to be accurate if Osorkon II was Zerah, since Osorkon II's reign hadn't even begun until one year later - 872BC. In the Book of Kings , which doesn't mention Asa's defeat of Zerah, Asa is described as being extremely weak from a defensive point of view,[6] and Biblical scholars regard the idea that Asa could defeat an enormous Egyptian army to be untenable.[7]
Furthermore, Cushite refers to Kush (historic Ethiopia ), and it is unclear why either Osorkon should be described as a Cushite,[8] since the assertion would be unjustified.[9] It is a possibility that Cushite ( )is a typographic error for Kassite ( ), and that it consequently refers to a Babylonian (Kassite ) invasion,[8] but it is considered far more likely that it refers to an invasion by a marauding group of Arabs [10],[8][11] whose numbers have been vastly exaggerated.[12]
Son of Tamar
According to the Book of Genesis , Zerah was the son of Tamar and of Judah , and was the twin of Pharez .[13] The text argues that he was called Zerah because he had stuck his hand out before being born, and the midwife had tied a scarlet thread;[14] although all other biblical uses of the word zerah translate as sunrise, here the name is implied to derive from the colour of the thread - scarlet - which is similar to the initial colour of sunrise.
According to biblical scholars , the birth narrative here is an eponymous aetiological myth concerning the ethnological relationship between parts of the tribe of Judah .[8][15] The narrative would be more appropriate for describing the birth of Shuni ( ), one of the sons that the Bible later attributes to Gad ,[16] since the word used for scarlet is shani ( ); in addition, the bible also identifies Zerah as the name of the founder of one of the Simeonite clans.[17]
Names in the Genealogies of the Book of Chronicles
Zerah was a Gershonite Levite (1 Chr. 6:21, 41).
