Edward, Duke of Guelders

Edward of Guelders (1336–1371) was the youngest son of Duke Reginald II and Eleanor of Woodstock. In 1350, aged fourteen and encouraged by his mother, he rose against his elder brother Reginald III at the head of the Bronkhorst faction, and eleven years later his victory at Tiel captured his brother and made Edward duke.

He governed forcefully, allying with Jülich, Cleves and the bishop of Liège. In 1371 he joined his brother-in-law William II of Jülich against Luxembourg at the Battle of Baesweiler.

William won, but Edward was mortally wounded and died in 1371, and Reginald was restored. With neither brother leaving children, the duchy went in 1377 to William of Jülich, son of their half-sister Maria.
