Henry I married Matilda of Scotland (Good Queen Maud), who was the granddaughter of Edward Aethling, the son of Edmund Ironside. By this marriage, Henry united the Norman royal family to the house of Wessex. In 1106, at the Battle of Tinchebray (28 September 1106), Henry defeated his elder brother Duke Robert Curthose and so united the thrones of England and Normandy.
