Henry Benedict Thomas Edward Maria Clement Francis Xavier Stuart, Cardinal Duke of York

Prince Charles Edward book (1900) by Andrew Lang. Henry Benedict Thomas Edward Maria Clement Francis Xavier Stuart, Cardinal Duke of York (6 March 1725 – 13 July 1807) was a Roman Catholic Cardinal, and fourth and final Jacobite heir to claim the thrones of England, Scotland, France, and Ireland publicly. Unlike his father, James Francis Edward Stuart, and brother, Charles Edward Stuart, Henry made no effort to seize the throne. After Charles's death in January 1788 the Papacy did not recognize Henry as the lawful ruler of England, Scotland, and Ireland, but referred to him as the Cardinal Duke of York. He spent his life in the Papal States and had a long career in the clergy of the Roman Catholic Church, rising to become the Dean of the College of Cardinals and Cardinal-Bishop of Ostia and Velletri. He was one of the longest serving Cardinals in the Church's history. Upon the death of his brother, Henry became known by Jacobites and his personal entourage, as Henry IX of England and Ireland, and Henry I of Scotland.
