Baron Edward Brackenburye is perhaps best known as an accomplished archer, he served as the third Baron of the Barony of the Cleftlands and a proud member of the Baronial battle unit. One little known fact is that he bought a set of bagpipes and took lessons to learn to play them shortly after joining the SCA just so he could pipe the unit out at Pennsic.

== Persona ==
Edward Brackenburye was a young boy at the Battle of Bosworth Field, he lived that day because he was commanded to stay with the provisions and not join the battle and in his heart mourns the loss of his King, Richard the Third. He was well looked after by his protector, the Earl of Lincoln and married a Burgundian noblewoman, [[Milesent Vibert]] whom he met on one of the many diplomatic missions between Yorkist interests and Burgundy.

== Offices & Positions ==

No one was able to out-shoot Edward alas, so he didn't have to make any boxes. Edward only competed for Archery Champion in 2000 as he still wanted to be in the running for Champion d'arms (Historically chosen from the best combatant on more than one field.) He ran the shoot to choose his successor in 2001 and one of the targets was a drawing of Edward which many picked up a bow to attempt! Extra points for his bow hand.

A few years after that, (2002? 2003?) Edward was finally given a spot on the '''Archery Champion's team''' for Pennsic where he did acquit himself well. He served on the Champion's team most years since then save for those where he was not able to attend Pennsic on the days of the shoot and shoot prep.
