	Britannia Biographies: George (1449-1478), Duke of Clarence
		George, the sixth but third surviving son of Richard, Duke of York, and Cecily Neville, was the brother of both Kings Edward IV and Richard III.
		Clarence seems to have been present on the Yorkist side at the final Battle of Tewkesbury and is believed to have there assisted his next brother, Richard, Duke of Gloucester (afterwards King Richard III), to murder Prince Edward of Lancaster.
		Clarence was present at Edward's futile campaign in France, in 1475, and, during the next three years, appears to have been steadily heaping up causes of complaint against himself, largely by his frequent interference with the ordinary processes of justice in the law-courts: an offence known as ‘maintenance'.
