Editing Earl of Cork (section)

==Earl of Cork (1394?)==
[[Edward of Norwich, 2nd Duke of York|Edward of Norwich]], [[Earl of Rutland]], the first son of [[Edmund of Langley, 1st Duke of York]], fifth son of [[Edward III of England]], favorite of his cousin [[Richard II of England|Richard II]], had been created ''Earl of Cork'' in the Peerage of Ireland during his nephew's personal reign. While the creation is unrecorded, he campaigned in Ireland from 1394 to 1395, and both he and King Richard use the title in letters that spring.

He is usually called by some other of his many titles; Rutland, Aumale, or York. He was created [[Duke of Aumale]] in 1397, and deprived of the dukedom 6 October 1399, as a consequence  of the deposition of Richard II; he succeeded his father as [[Duke of York]] in 1402. This Earldom, and all honours created for him, became extinct when he died childless at the [[battle of Agincourt]] in 1415.
