John Clifford, 9th Baron Clifford, (8 April 1435 – 28 March 1461), was a Lancastrian military leader during the Wars of the Roses.
 The Clifford family were one of the most prominent families among the northern English nobility of the fifteenth century; and by the marriages of his sisters John Clifford had links to some very important families of the time, including the earls of Devon.
 He was orphaned at about twenty years of age when his father was slain at the first battle of the Wars of the Roses, the Battle of St Albans in 1455.
 It was probably as a result of his father's death there that John became one of the strongest supporters of Queen Margaret of Anjou, consort of King Henry VI, who ended up as effective leader of the Lancastrian faction.
 John Clifford had already achieved prominence in the north where, as an ally of the son of the earl of Northumberland, he took part in a feud against the Neville family, the Percy's natural rivals in Yorkshire.
 This consisted of a series of armed raids, assaults and skirmishes, and included an ambush on one of the younger Nevilles' wedding party in 1453.
 Historians have seen a direct connection between his involvement in the local feud in the north with the Nevilles, and his involvement in the national struggle against the duke of York, whom the Nevilles were closely allied with in the late 1450s.
 Although this was supposedly a period of temporary peace between the factions, Clifford and his allies appear to have made numerous attempts to ambush the Neville and Yorkist lords.
Wars of national liberation or national liberation revolutions are conflicts fought by nationalities to gain independence.
 The term is used in conjunction with wars against foreign powers (or at least those perceived as foreign) to establish separate sovereign states for the rebelling nationality.
 From a different point of view, these wars are called insurgencies, rebellions, or wars of independence.
 Guerrilla warfare or asymmetric warfare is often utilized by groups labeled as national liberation movements, often with support from other states.
The Wars of the Roses was a 1963 theatrical adaptation of William Shakespeare's first historical tetralogy ("1 Henry VI", "2 Henry VI", "3 Henry VI" and "Richard III"), which deals with the conflict between the House of Lancaster and the House of York over the throne of England, a conflict known as the Wars of the Roses.
 The plays were adapted by John Barton, and directed by Barton himself and Peter Hall at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre.
 The production starred David Warner as Henry VI, Peggy Ashcroft as Margaret of Anjou, Donald Sinden as the Duke of York, Paul Hardwick as the Duke of Gloucester, Janet Suzman as Joan la Pucelle, Brewster Mason as the Earl of Warwick, Roy Dotrice as Edward IV, Susan Engel as Queen Elizabeth and Ian Holm as Richard III.
Blood and Roses: One family's struggle and triumph during the tumultuous Wars of the Roses, by Helen Castor, is a narrative based on the Paston letters of 15th century England.
 The book traces five generations of the Pastons, an influential family from the Norfolk village of the same name.
 Based largely on an extensive collection of correspondence, "Blood and Roses" records the competition among the landed gentry for land, property and advancement.
 Set among the turbulence of the Wars of the Roses, the Pastons survive and thrive through shrewd political maneuvers.
The Treaty of Tours was an agreement between Henry VI of England and the Charles VII of France, signed on 22 May 1444.
 The terms stipulated the marriage of Charles VII's fifteen-year-old niece, Margaret of Anjou, to Henry VI and the agreement of a 21-month truce between the Kingdoms of England and France.
 In exchange for the marriage, Charles wanted the area of Maine in northern France.
 Henry VI married Margaret a year later, in April 1445, when Henry VI was 23 years old.
 He did not, however, give up Maine.
 Charles threatened Henry VI and sent envoys to pressure him; even Margaret tried to persuade Henry to give it up.
 Henry eventually yielded in 1448 when Charles VII threatened English garrisons with a large army.
 The Treaty was seen as a major failure for England as the bride secured for Henry VI was a poor match, being related to King Charles VII only distantly, and through marriage rather than by blood.
 Her marriage came also without a dowry, when the amount that should have been given was 20,000 livres.
 Margaret of Anjou was the daughter of the impoverished René of Anjou and in addition to being presented with Margaret without a dowry, Henry was also expected to pay for the wedding.
 The Treaty of Tours exacerbated rifts between the court's Beaufort faction and the Dukes of Gloucester and York, and has been considered a potentially contributory factor to the outbreak of the Wars of the Roses.
Dame Edith Margaret Emily Ashcroft, DBE (22 December 1907 – 14 June 1991), commonly known as Peggy Ashcroft, was an English actress whose career spanned more than sixty years.
The Lancaster Red Roses baseball team, originally known as the Maroons, changed its name at the start of the 1906 season during a bitter match with the York, Pennsylvania-based White Roses.
 Some sources indicate that the rival teams were named for the opposing factions in England's historic Wars of the Roses.
 The Lancaster Red Roses played at Stumpf Field, which is still used today by local baseball and softball leagues.
Thomas Courtenay, 5th/13th Earl of Devon (1414–1458) was an English nobleman who was involved in the Wars of the Roses.
 His seat was Colcombe Castle, near Colyton, Devon, and later the principal historic family seat of Tiverton Castle after his mother's death.
 Much of his life was spent in armed territorial struggle against his near-neighbour in Devon Sir William Bonville of Shute, Devon, at a time when central control over the provinces was weak.
 He had been married off as an infant to Margaret Beaufort, granddaughter of John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, and started his career an adherent to the Lancastrian Beaufort party.
 On the demise of the Beaufort party he abandoned it in favour of the Duke of York.
 When York sought the support of Courtenay's arch-enemy Bonville, Courtenay fell out of favour with York.
 The Wars of the Roses led to the deaths and executions of all three of his sons, successively 6th, 7th, and 8th Earls of Devon, and the eventual attainder of his titles and forfeiture of his lands.
 The Earldom was however revived in 1485 for his distant cousin Sir Edward Courtenay, KG, (d. 1509), third in descent from his great-uncle.
 The ordinal number given to the early Courtenay Earls of Devon depends on whether the earldom is deemed a new creation by the letters patent granted 22 February 1334/5 or whether it is deemed a restitution of the old dignity of the de Redvers family.
 Authorities differ in their opinions, and thus alternative ordinal numbers exist, given here.
The South Central Pennsylvania cities of Lancaster and York have a historical rivalry in all sporting events from the high-school level to the professional.
 Since both cities are named after the English cities of Lancaster and York, the former Pennsylvania baseball teams were named for the opposing sides of the Wars of the Roses.
 As a metaphor, "War of the Roses" describes the intense baseball matches fought between the Lancaster Red Roses and the York White Roses.
 With the addition of York to the Atlantic League, the Barnstormers continue the Red Roses' tradition as they battle the York Revolution for lower Susquehanna supremacy.
