Charles's court consisted of his family, of the clergy in his personal service, who were called the king's capella, and of temporal officials, among them the count palatine, the seneschal, and the master of the royal household.

 James Duke problem
It is widely accepted among the descendants of the Rogers, Clarks, Gwalthmeys, Underwoods and others that Mary Byrd, born 29 Sep 1683, daughter of Wm Byrd and Maria Horsmanden of Westover, VA, married John Rogers in 1716, had a number of children by him, and lived to a ripe old age.
There are many family stories that support this theory, and I found some very convincing arguments among the manuscripts at the Library of Virginia and Virginia Historical Society, but no court documents or records to prove it.
It is fairly clear from the Byrd and Duke forums as well as the genealogical notes published with the Byrd Letters, that Mary Byrd was married to James Duke sometime between her mother's death in 1699 and her father's death in 1704, and that there were offspring of this union.

The match must have been intended primarily to cement peace in the west and to assure imperial sovereignty over Burgundy and Italy, and Agnes' total devotion to the church reform advocated by the Cluniac monasteries probably confirmed Henry in his decision to take her for his wife.
In 1054-55, dukes Conrad of Bavaria and Welf III of Carinthia attempted to overthrow Henry's rule through a widely spread conspiracy, and only their demise saved him from great trouble.
