  Edward, Earl of Warwick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Edward (Plantagenet), Earl of Warwick, (February 25, 1475-November 28, 1499) was the son of George, Duke of Clarence, and a potential claimant to the throne during the reigns of both King Richard III of England (1483 - 1485) and his successor, Henry VII of England (1485 - 1509).
He was created Earl of Warwick in 1478, shortly after the attainder and execution of his father for treason.
Although, in 1490, he was confirmed in his title of Earl of Warwick despite his (father's) attainder, he remained in the Tower of London until the arrival of another pretender, Perkin Warbeck, in 1499.

 Earl of Warwick - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The title Earl of Warwick is one of the oldest English earldoms.
It was traditionally associated with possession of Warwick Castle, and when the 11th Earl entailed the castle to his heirs male, he probably intended to entail the earldom as well.
At the death of the eighth Rich Earl, the title became extinct, and was granted to Francis Greville, 1st Earl Brooke, thus uniting again the title and castle.

Little is known of his early life, but before 1486 he caught the attention of an Oxford priest, Richard Simon or Symonds, who trained him to impersonate Richard, duke of York, younger son of Edward IV, who is now thought to have died, or been murdered, while imprisoned in the Tower of London.
The plan was changed, however, and in 1486 Simon took Simnel to Ireland, claiming that he was Edward, earl of Warwick, another Yorkist claimant to the throne.
A number of Yorkist adherents rallied to his cause, and in May, 1487, Simnel and his supporters, led by John de la Pole, earl of Lincoln (see under Pole, family), crossed to England and were defeated by the forces of Henry VII at the battle of Stoke (June, 1487).

His potential claim to the throne following the deposition of his cousin, King Edward V of England in 1483, was overlooked because the attainder of his father also barred Warwick from the succession (although that could have been reversed by an act of Parliament).

 Michael Miller - Wars of the Roses - Chapter 66: King Edward IV outwits Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick
King Edward IV was a very clever man; his own mother, 'Proud Cis' had already discovered that her son was far too clever for her, and Warwick was about to learn the same lesson.
Warwick was an astute politician (although he did not always follow the courses which his mind must have told him were the wise ones) and a brave and competent soldier, if not always a successful one.
Warwick's great mistake was to toy with the idea of displacing King Edward IV and putting his brother, George, Duke of Clarence, on the Throne.
