Henry Frederick Stuart, first child of King James VI of Scotland (later King James I of England) and Anne of Denmark, was born on February 19, 1594, at Stirling Castle in Scotland.
Henry was created Prince of Wales at Westminster in June 1610, the paragon of a prince: he was intelligent, well read, an excellent swordsman, an avid patron of the arts, and possessed of a strict sense of morality.
Henry was the great hope of the Protestants, who saw in him a Protestant Henry V who would lead troops to the continent on a crusade against Catholic Spain.

Henry's virtues were much exaggerated, but he was certainly the antithesis to his father, and while he lived much could be forgiven James in the knowledge that his death would bring a new diapensation.

Henry Frederick Stuart, Prince of Wales (February 19, 1594 - November 6, 1612) was the eldest son of King James VI of Scotland/James I of England and Anne of Denmark.

 Prince of Wales - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The current Prince of Wales is The Prince Charles, the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth II.
The translation of "Prince" was used by Englishmen to undermine the power of the rulers of Wales, causing them to appear inferior to the Kings of England (as a Prince is lower than the King in the hierarchy), when in reality they were of equal rank.
He was indeed proclaimed Prince of Wales by his supporters on 16 September 1400, and his revolt in quest of Welsh independence was not quashed by Henry IV until 1409.

When Henry VIII united England and Wales and gave Wales representation in the Parliament at Westminster, the direct link between the Prince of Wales and the government of that principality was severed.
Although investitures of Princes of Wales were traditionally held in front of Parliament, and not all Princes of Wales have been invested, the investiture of the present Prince of Wales (like that of his predecessor Prince Edward, later Edward VIII, in 1911) was a State occasion.
The Welsh regalia (Crown Jewels associated with the Princes of Wales) used at the investitures in 1911 and 1969 are on loan to the National Museum of Wales in Cardiff.

Nevertheless, in the early death of Henry Prince of Wales there is no room to doubt that the national bewailment was just.
It was in the midst of active study and exercise, and while the nation was becoming fully aware of the promise he gave as their future ruler, that this accomplished prince was seized with a fever, the consequence, apparently, of the too violent fatigues to which he occasionally subjected himself.

The motives for the ill-feeling between Frederick and his parents may include the fact that he had been set up by hisgrandfather, even as a small child, as the representative of the house of Hanover, and was used to presiding over officialoccasions in the absence of his parents.
The prince's father refused to make him the financial allowance that theprince considered should have been his, and Parliament was obliged to intervene, resulting in further bad feeling between thetwo.
