      Isabella (of France, Wife of Edward II, she-wolf of France)
Born:
Died: 1358


Daughter of Philippe IV the king of France. Isabella married Edward II of England in 1308 and their eldest son became Edward III. Isabella was unhappily married to Edward and through a rebellion in 1327 had him imprisoned and ultimately executed and so she became know as the she-wolf of France. Isabella believed that because she was the daughter of Philippe IV and all her brothers had died without producing a male heir she had a claim to the French throne. Her son Edward III was to pursue this claim a few years later starting the 'Hundred Years War'.
