  Edmund de Mortimer, 3rd Earl of March - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The position of the young earl, powerful on account of his possessions and hereditary influence in the Welsh marches, was rendered still more important by his marriage in 1368 at the age of 17 to the 13 year old Philippa, the only child of Lionel of Antwerp, Duke of Clarence, third son of Edward III.
Therefore, the Earl of March not only represented one of the chief Anglo-Norman lordships in Ireland in right of his wife Philippa, but Philippa's line was also the second most senior line of descent in the succession to the crown, after Edward, the Black Prince and his son, King Richard II of England.
March was a member of the administrative council appointed by the same parliament after the death of Edward, the Black Prince to attend the king and advise him in all public affairs.

With the support of Richard Neville, 16th Earl of Warwick ("The Kingmaker"), Edward, already showing great promise as a leader of men, defeated the Lancastrians in a succession of battles.

 Edward IV of England   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
When Richard was killed in 1460, at the Battle of Wakefield, pressing his claim against the Lancastrian king, Henry VI of England, Edward became his heir.
With the support of Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick ("The Kingmaker"), Edward, already showing great promise as a leader of men, defeated the Lancastrians in a succession of battles.
Perhaps because Edward was nothing like his father in looks or height, questions about the paternity of Edward IV had been raised during Edward's reign, for example by Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick in 1469 and repeated by George, Duke of Clarence shortly before his death in 1478, but with no evidence.

 Goodwood Motor Racing Revival - 1999
Freddie March the present Earl of March's grandfather was a great motor racing enthusiast who raced with success in the 1930s and was one of the Brooklands personalities at that time.
It fell into disuse partly because Freddie March's son's interest was in horse racing but when Charles March, the grandson appeared on the scene he was determined to make major changes and bring the old track back to life again.
After very extensive efforts Lord March's team and a band of enthusiastic supporters suceeded in getting planning permission to open the track for a few days each year and the Goodwood Motor Circuit Revival was born, this year being the second time around.
