The link to William de Braose currently leads to a disambiguation page. Someone with more knowledge of the topic should correct the link to go to the correct William. --Bill 23:33, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Arthur's Death

John of England contains the following account of Arthur's death:

However, Hubert de Burgh, the officer commanding the Rouen fortress, claimed to have delivered Arthur around Easter 1203 to agents of the King sent to castrate him and that Arthur had died of shock. Hubert later retracted his statement and claimed Arthur still lived, but no one ever saw Arthur alive again and the supposition that he was murdered caused Brittany, and later Normandy, to rebel against King John.

If a source can be verified, this should probably be included here. GwenW 07:40, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Arthur's capture

the siege & capture took place in Mirebeau [march of Anjou, witch is a Plantagenet territory], not in Mirabeau [southern France] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.80.67.108 (talk) 14:24, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
