Charles Quincey (Sacred Accord)

Charles Quincey (8 February 1440 - 9 December 1520) was the prince-consort of Margaret I and regent of the Angevin Realm after her death in 1512 until his own in 1520. Quincey married Margaret in December 1511 shortly after Prince Henry of Lancaster-Anjou's death on 20 November. In his short period as regent he was largely assisted by Margaret's extensive court who advised him on political matters. By the time of his death he was disliked by the court for his embezzlement of royal funds which he often diverted to his aristocratic friends. While now understood as a largely benign figure and the father of Henry VII, until the 16th Century he was viewed as a corrupt blotch on the near-perfect record of Margaret's reign.
