Pope Sixtus IV (?) died on 12 August 1484 at Rome, Città Metropolitana di Roma Capitale, Lazio, Italy (now), at age 70.^3,2
     Pope Sixtus IV (?) was also known as Francesco della Rovere Cardinal.^3,2 He was Pope Sixtus IV - (FRANCESCO DELLA ROVERE) - Born near Abisola, 21 July, 1414; died 12 Aug., 1484. His parents were poor, and while still a child he was destined for the Franciscan order. Later he studied philosophy and theology with great success at the University of Pavia, and lectured at Padua, Bologna, Pavia, Siena, and Florence, having amongst other eminent disciples the famous Cardinal Bessarion. After filling the post of procurator of his order in Rome and Provincial of Liguria, he was in 1467 created Cardinal of S. Pietro in Vincoli by Paul II. Whatever leisure he now had was devoted to theology, and in 1470 he published a treatise on the Precious blood and a work on the Immaculate Conception, in which latter he endeavoured to prove that Aquinas and Scotus, though differing in words, were really of one mind upon the question. The conclave which assembled on the death of Paul II elected him pope, and he ascended the chair of St. Peter as Sixtus IV.

His first thought was the prosecution of the war against the Turks, and legates were appointed for France, Spain, Germany, Hungary, and Poland, with the hope of enkindling enthusiasm in these countries. The crusade, however, achieved little beyond the bringing back to Rome of twenty-five Turkish prisoners, who were paraded in triumph through the streets of the city. Sixtus continued the policy of his predecessor Paul II with regard to France, and denounced Louis XI for insisting on the royal consent being given before papal decrees could be published in his kingdom. He also made an effort like his predecessor for the reunion of the Russian Church with Rome, but his negotiations were without result. He now turned his attention almost exclusively to Italian politics, and fell more and more under his dominating passion of nepotism, heaping riches and favours on his unworthy relations. In 1478 took place the famous conspiracy of the Pazzi, planned by the pope's nephew — Cardinal Rafael Riario — to overthrow the Medici and bring Florence under the Riarii. The pope was cognizant of the plot, though probably not of the intention to assassinate, and even had Florence under interdict because it rose in fury against the conspirators and brutal murderers of Giuliano de' Medici. He now entered upon a two years' war with Florence, and encouraged the Venetians to attack Ferrara, which he wished to obtain for his nephew Girolamo Riario. Ercole d'Este, attacked by Venice, found allies in almost every Italian state, and Ludovico Sforza, upon whom the pope relied for support, did nothing to help him. The allied princes forced Sixtus to make peace, and the chagrin which this caused him is said to have hastened his death.

Henceforth, until the Reformation, the secular interests of the papacy were of paramount importance. The attitude of Sixtus towards the conspiracy of the Pazzi, his wars and treachery, his promotion to the highest offices in the Church of such men as Pietro and Girolamo are blots upon his career. Nevertheless, there is a praiseworthy side to his pontificate. He took measures to suppress abuses in the Inquisition, vigorously opposed the Waldenses, and annulled the decrees of the Council of Constance. He was a patron of arts and letters, building the famous Sistine Chapel, the Sistine Bridge across the Tiber, and becoming the second founder of the Vatican Library. Under him Rome once more became habitable, and he did much to improve the sanitary conditions of the city. He brought down water from the Quirinal to the Fountain of Trevi, and began a transformation of the city which death alone hindered him from completing. In his private life Sixtus IV was blameless. The gross accusations brought against him by his enemy Infessura have no foundation; his worst vice was nepotism, and his greatest misfortune was that he was destined to be placed at the head of the States of the Church at a time when Italy was emerging from the era of the republics, and territorial princes like the pope were forced to do battle with the great despots.

     "Albrecht I, Emperor elect, duke of Austria, was born in July 1255, the eldest son of Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf I von Habsburg and Gertrud von Hohenberg. In 1274 he married Elisabeth von Tirol, the daughter of Meinhard V-IV-II, Herzog von Kärnten, Graf von Görz und Tirol, and Elisabeth of Bavaria. They had twelve children of whom five sons and two daughters would have progeny.
     "Albrecht was invested with the duchies of Austria and Styria in 1282. On Rudolf's death in 1291, Albrecht was forced to accept the election of Adolf of Nassau as German king (emperor elect), but in 1298 he mustered sufficient allies to defeat Adolf at Gelnheim (also called Göllheim), near Worms and Spiers.
     "He was elected king at Frankfurt on July 27 and crowned at Aix on August 24. Pope Boniface VIII declined to recognise him until 1303 when Albrecht admitted the right of the pope to bestow the imperial crown and promised that none of his sons should be elected king without papal consent. In 1306 he secured the crown of Bohemia for his son Rudolf, but tried in vain to impose his own claims on Thuringia in 1307.
     "His action in abolishing all tolls established on the Rhine since 1250 led to the formation of a league against him by the Rhenish archbishops and the Count Palatine of the Rhine; however, aided by the towns, he soon crushed the rising. He was on the way to suppress a revolt in Swabia when he was murdered on 1 May 1308, at Windisch on the Reuss, by his nephew Johann, whom he had deprived of his inheritance.
     "Although a hard, stern man, he had a keen sense of justice when his selfish interests were not involved, and few of the German kings possessed so practical an intelligence. He encouraged the cities and, not content with issuing proclamations against private war, formed alliances with princes in order to enforce his decrees. The serfs, whose wrongs seldom attracted notice in an age indifferent to the claims of common humanity, found a friend in this severe monarch, and he protected even the despised and persecuted Jews."¹²

     "Albert I of Habsburg (German: Albrecht I.) (July 1255 – 1 May 1308), the eldest son of King Rudolf I of Germany and his first wife Gertrude of Hohenberg, was a Duke of Austria and Styria from 1282 and King of Germany from 1298 until his assassination.
Life
     "From 1273 Albert ruled as a landgrave over his father's Swabian (Further Austrian) possessions in Alsace. In 1282 his father, the first German monarch from the House of Habsburg, invested him and his younger brother Rudolf II with the duchies of Austria and Styria, which he had seized from late King Ottokar II of Bohemia and defended in the 1278 Battle on the Marchfeld. By the 1283 Treaty of Rheinfelden his father entrusted Albert with their sole government, while Rudolf II ought to be compensated by the Further Austrian Habsburg home territories – which, however, never happened until his death in 1290. Albert and his Swabian ministeriales appear to have ruled the Austrian and Styrian duchies with conspicuous success, overcoming the resistance by local nobles.
     "King Rudolf I was unable to secure the succession to the German throne for his son, especially due to the objections raised by Ottokar's son King Wenceslaus II of Bohemia, and the plans to install Albert as successor of the assassinated King Ladislaus IV of Hungary in 1290 also failed. Upon Rudolf's death in 1291, the Prince-electors, fearing Albert's power and the implementation of a hereditary monarchy, chose Count Adolf of Nassau-Weilburg as King of the Romans. An uprising among his Styrian dependents compelled Albert to recognize the sovereignty of his rival and to confine himself for a time to the government of the Habsburg lands at Vienna.
     "He did not abandon his hopes of the throne, however, which were eventually realised: In 1298, he was chosen German king by some of the princes, who were bothered about Adolf's attempts to gain his own power basis in the lands of Thuringia and Meissen, again led by the Bohemian king Wenceslaus II. The armies of the rival kings met at the Battle of Göllheim near Worms, where Adolf was defeated and slain. Submitting to a new election but securing the support of several influential princes by making extensive promises, he was chosen at the Imperial City of Frankfurt on 27 July 1298, and crowned at Aachen Cathedral on 24 August.[1]
     "Although a hard, stern man, Albert had a keen sense of justice when his own interests were not involved, and few of the German kings possessed so practical an intelligence. He encouraged the cities, and not content with issuing proclamations against private war, formed alliances with the princes in order to enforce his decrees. The serfs, whose wrongs seldom attracted notice in an age indifferent to the claims of common humanity, found a friend in this severe monarch, and he protected even the despised and persecuted Jews. Stories of his cruelty and oppression in the Swiss cantons (cf. William Tell) did not appear until the 16th century, and are now regarded as legendary. [1]
     "Albert sought to play an important part in European affairs. He seemed at first inclined to press a quarrel with the Kingdom of France over the Burgundian frontier, but the refusal of Pope Boniface VIII to recognize his election led him to change his policy, and, in 1299, he made a treaty with King Philip IV, by which his son Rudolph was to marry Blanche, a daughter of the French king. He afterwards became estranged from Philip, but in 1303, Boniface recognized him as German king and future emperor; in return, Albert recognized the authority of the pope alone to bestow the Imperial crown, and promised that none of his sons should be elected German king without papal consent.
     "Albert had failed in his attempt to seize the counties of Holland and Zeeland, as vacant fiefs of the Holy Roman Empire, on the death of Count John I in 1299, but in 1306 he secured the crown of Bohemia for his son Rudolph III on the death of King Wenceslaus III. He also renewed the claim made by his predecessor, Adolf, on Thuringia, and interfered in a quarrel over the succession to the Hungarian throne. The Thuringian attack ended in Albert's defeat at the Battle of Lucka in 1307 and, in the same year, the death of his son Rudolph weakened his position in eastern Europe. His action in abolishing all tolls established on the Rhine since 1250 led the Rhenish prince-archbishops and the Elector of the Palatinate to form a league against him. Aided by the Imperial cities, however, he soon crushed the rising.[1]
     "He was on the way to suppress a revolt in Swabia when he was murdered on 1 May 1308, at Windisch on the Reuss River, by his nephew Duke John, afterwards called "the Parricide" or "John Parricida", whom he had deprived of his inheritance.[1]
Titles
     "Albert, by the grace of God, King of the Romans, Duke of Austria and Styria, Lord of Carniola, over the Wendish Mark and of Port Naon, Count of Habsburg and Kyburg, Landgrave of Alsace
Marriage and children
     "In 1274 Albert had married Elizabeth,[2] daughter of Count Meinhard II of Tyrol, who was a descendant of the Babenberg margraves of Austria who predated the Habsburgs' rule. The baptismal name Leopold, patron saint margrave of Austria, was given to one of their sons. Queen Elizabeth was in fact better connected to mighty German rulers than her husband: she was a descendant of earlier German kings, including Emperor Henry IV; she was also a niece of the Wittelsbach dukes of Bavaria, Austria's important neighbor.

An unsuccessful candidate to succeed his father as king of Germany in 1292, Albrecht was elected to succeed as ALBRECHT I King of Germany at Mainz 24 Jun 1298 when King Adolf was deposed. King Adolf refused to accept the ruling and was killed in battle by Albrecht at Göllheim 2 Jul 1298. Albrecht's election was confirmed at Frankfurt-am-Main 27 Jul 1298. Crowned at Aachen 24 Aug 1298. He reversed his predecessor's anti-French policy, confirmed in 1299 by the betrothal of his son Rudolf to the French king's sister[419].

; Per Genealogics: "Elisabeth was born before 1262, the eldest daughter of Meinhard V-IV-II, Herzog von Kärnten, Graf von Görz und Tirol, and Elisabeth of Bavaria. In 1274 in Vienna, Elisabeth married Albrecht I, Graf von Habsburg, son of Rudolf I von Habsburg, the emperor-elect, and Gertrud von Hohenberg. They had twelve children of whom five sons and two daughters would have progeny. Albrecht would also become emperor-elect and one of the founders of the House of Habsburg. He was invested as Duke of Austria and Styria in December 1282 by his father. They solidified their rule in what was to become the Habsburg patrimony, also with the help of Elisabeth's father who in his turn was created Duke of Carinthia in 1286. In 1298 her husband was finally elected King of the Germans (emperor-elect) upon the end of the reign of Adolf von Nassau.

     "Elizabeth of Carinthia (also known as Elizabeth of Tyrol; c.?1262 – 28 October 1312), was a Duchess of Austria from 1282 and Queen of Germany from 1298 until 1308, by marriage to the Habsburg king Albert I.
Life
     "Born in Munich, Bavaria, she was the eldest daughter of Count Meinhard of Gorizia-Tyrol, and Elizabeth of Bavaria, Queen of Germany, widow of the late Hohenstaufen king Conrad IV of Germany.
     "Elizabeth thus was a half-sister of Conradin, King of Jerusalem and Duke of Swabia. Elizabeth was in fact better connected to powerful German rulers than her future husband: a descendant of earlier monarchs, for example Emperor Frederick Barbarossa, she was also a niece of the Bavarian dukes,[1] Austria's important neighbors.
Duchess and Queen
     "She was married in Vienna on 20 December 1274 to Count Albert of Habsburg, eldest son and heir of the newly elected King Rudolf I of Germany, thus becoming daughter-in-law of the King of the Romans and Emperor-to-be. After Rudolf had defeated his rival King Ottokar II of Bohemia in the 1278 Battle on the Marchfeld, he invested his son Albert with the duchies of Austria and Styria at the Imperial Diet in Augsburg on 17 December 1282.
     "Albert initially had to share the rule with his younger brother Rudolf II, who nevertheless had to waive his rights according to the Treaty of Rheinfelden the next year. Duke Albert and Elizabeth solidified their rule in what was to become the Habsburg "hereditary lands", also with the help of Elizabeth's father Meinhard, who in his turn was created Duke of Carinthia by King Rudolf I in 1286.
     "Elizabeth was described as shrewd and enterprising, in possession of some commercial talents. The construction of the Saline plant in Salzkammergut goes back to her suggestion.
     "Upon the death of Albert's father in 1291, the princes elected Count Adolf of Nassau German king, while Duke Albert himself became entangled in internal struggles with the Austrian nobility. Not until Adolf's deposition in 1298, Elizabeth's husband was finally elected King of the Romans on 23 June 1298. Two weeks later, Adolf was defeated and killed in the Battle of Göllheim. In 1299, Elizabeth was crowned Queen of the Romans in Nuremberg.
Later life
     "On 1 May 1308 her husband was murdered by his nephew John "the Parricide" near Windisch, Swabia (in modern-day Switzerland). After Albert's assassination, Elizabeth had the Poor Clare monastery of Königsfelden erected at the site, where she died on 28 October 1312 and was also buried.[2] Today her mortal remains rest at Saint Paul's Abbey in Carinthia.

     Kunigunde (?) Archduchess of Austria was born on 16 March 1465 at Wiener Neustadt, Austria.^7,1,2,3 She married Albrecht IV 'der Weise' (?) Duke of Bavaria, son of Albrecht III 'der Fromme' (?) Duke of Bavaria and Anna (?) Duchess of Brunswick-Grubenhagen, on 3 January 1487 at Innsbruck, Austria.^4,7,1,2,8,3

Kunigunde (?) Archduchess of Austria died on 6 August 1520 at Munich (München), Stadtkreis München, Bavaria (Bayern), Germany (now), at age 55.^7,1,2,3
      ; At the age of two she lost her mother and her education was then handled by the 'Hofmeisterin', Else Pellendorfer. Simplicity and frugality were stressed and Kunigunde became very religious. Prudent, strong of will, full of practical intelligence, and robust, she developed into a self-confident personality. Her father, Emperor Friedrich III, had grand plans for her; he wanted her to marry Sultan Mohammed II, the conqueror of Constantinople, if he would become a Christian.

However, Albrecht IV, Duke of Bavaria, met the twenty-one-year old Kunigunde in Innsbruck and both personal affection and political ambition made him ask her to marry him. Archduke Sigismund and her brother, the future Emperor Maximilian I, supported the marriage. Hence, against the wishes of her father, they married on 3 January 1487.

Although they became the parents of eight children, politically the marriage did not work out. Albrecht had hoped to re-establish the old Dukedom of Bavaria as well as gaining the Reichsstadt Regensburg and Tirol for Bavaria. Although the Austrians did not accommodate Albrecht, he supported the visions of Emperor Maximilian and managed the interests of Bavaria from then on only in the frame of the Habsburg Universal monarchy.

In Bavaria Kunigunde and Albrecht supported the new emerging humanism and the renaissance. She was also known for her book collection. The most important accomplishment of Albrecht was the law for 'Primogenitur' which ended the division of inheritances and established that the undivided lands would be inherited by the eldest son, even though Kunigunde disagreed. When Albrecht died two years after this law had been proclaimed, Kunigunde stood for family unity and entered the convent 'Zum Puettrich' in Munich and, because of her simple and religious life-style, was regarded as almost holy. She survived her husband by twelve years.¹

In an age of arranged marriages, Ernst, so tough that he was known as the 'Iron Duke', fell passionately in love with the woman who was to become his second wife, the Polish Zimburg of Masovia, whom he married, aged about 35, in 1412 when she was between 15 and 18 years of age. Zimburg was so strong she could hammer a nail into a board with her bare hands.

The deformity of the lower jaw and lip, known as 'the Habsburg Jaw', had been introduced into the family by the apparently indestructible genes of Zimburg of Masovia, who nothwithstanding was said to be a great beauty.⁴
