Richard Plantagenet and his wife, Cecily Neville, lived during the 15th Century. They have been chosen to begin the "Royal Ancestors" pedigree because of their common descent from a host of kings and royal families, including King Edward III of England. They were also the parents of two English kings--Edward IV and Richard III--who ruled England from 1461 to 1485. The name "Plantagenet" comes from a long line of Plantagenet kings who ruled England for about 300 years. The "Neville" family was one of England's most influential families during the 14th and 15th centuries.
