        Note:
        Richard FitzAlan, 11th Earl of Arundel and 10th Earl of Surrey (1346 – September 21, 1397) was an English nobleman and military commander.
        He was the son of Richard FitzAlan, 10th Earl of Arundel and Eleanor of Lancaster and was born in 1346. He succeeded his father on January 24, 1376. His brother was Thomas Arundel who was Bishop of Ely from 1374 to 1388, then Archbishop of York from 1388 to 1397, then Archbishop of Canterbury.

        At the coronation of Richard II, Richard FitzAlan carried the crown.

        In 1377 he was Admiral of the West and South. In this capacity, he attacked Harfleur at Whitsun 1378, but was forced to return to his ships by the defenders. Later, he and John of Gaunt attempted to seize Saint-Malo but were unsuccessful.

        FitzAlan was closely aligned with Thomas, Duke of Gloucester who was an uncle of Richard II. Thomas was opposed to Richard II's desire for peace with France in the Hundred Years War and a power struggle between Gloucester and Richard II ensued. In late 1386, Gloucester forced Richard II to name both himself and Richard FitzAlan to Richard's Council. This council was to all intents and purposes a regency council for Richard II, however Richard limited the duration of the council's powers to be one year.

        In 1386 Richard II named him Admiral of all England, as well as being knighted a Knight of the Garter. As Admiral of All England, he defeated a Franco-Spanish-Flemish fleet off of Margate in March 1387, along with the Thomas de Mowbray, earl of Nottingham. In August, the king dismissed Gloucester and FitzAlan from the council and replaced them with his own favorites - including Archbishop Alexander Neville of York, the Duke of Ireland Robert de Vere, Michael de la Pole the earl of Suffolk, Sir Robert Tresillian who was the chief justice, and the former mayor of London Nicholas Brembre. The king summoned Gloucester and FitzAlan to meet with the king, but instead of coming, they raised troops and defeated the new council at Radcot Bridge, taking the favorites prisoner. The Merciless Parliament the next year condemned the favorites. Richard was one of the Lords Appellant who accused and condemned Richard II's favorites. He was named Governor of Brest in 1388.

        Peace was concluded with France in 1389, however Richard FitzAlan followed Gloucester's lead and stated that he would never agree with the peace that had been concluded.
        Arundel married twice. His first wife was Elizabeth de Bohun, daughter of William de Bohun, 1st Earl of Northampton. They married around September 28, 1359.

        Arundel then married Philippa Mortimer, daughter of Edmund Mortimer, 3rd Earl of March. Her mother was Philippa Plantagenet, a daughter of Lionel of Antwerp and thus a granddaughter of Edward III. They had no children.
        On July 12, 1397 he was arrested for his opposition to Richard II, as well as plotting with Gloucester to imprison the king. He stood trial at Westminster and was attainted.[8] He was beheaded on September 21, 1397 and was buried in the church of the Augustin Friars, Bread Street, London. In October of 1400, the attainter was reversed, and Richard's son Thomas succeeded to his father's estates and honors.

        Richard FitzAlan, 10th Earl of Arundel and Earl of Surrey, son of Richard FitzAlan and Eleanor Plantagenet, and was born 1346. He was bearer of the crown at the coronation of Richard II, July 16, 1377, and was a member of the Council, was made Admiral of the West and South Fleet in 1377, and subsequently, 1386, of all England, and Knight of the Garter in the same year. He distinguished himself in the French Wars, gaining a brilliant naval victory over allied French, Spanish and Flemish fleets, off Margate, March 24, 1387, and was made Governor of Brest 1388. Together with the Duke of Gloucester he took an active part against the King, Richard II, who in 1388 was entirely in that Duke's power. In 1394 he obtained pardon for all political offenses, but was treacherously seized July 12, 1397, tried at Westmoreland, and beheaded in Cheapside Sept. 21, 1397. (Footnote says: "No more shrinking or changing colour than if he were going to a banquet.") He married (contract dated Sept. 28, 1359) Elizabeth de Bohun, who died April 3, 1385, and was buried at Lewes.
