Edward I
Person
Edward I (1239-1307) was King of England from 1272 to 1307. Following the death of Magnus, the last Norse King of Mann, in 1265, and a period of Scottish dominance, Edward asserted English overlordship of the Island, and by the 1290s the Isle of Man was effectively under English control. His reign marks the transition of Mann from Norse to English sovereignty.
