Everything about J Nos Wass totally explained
János Wass [pronunciationin IPA: ja:noʃ vɑʃ/English: yaanosh vosh] or
"Prince" John (
16th century) was an unlearnt bastard son of King
Louis II Jagiellon, the ill-fated king, who died young and in misterious circumstances at the
Battle of Mohács by a
liaison with his mother's former
Lady-in-waiting,
Angelitha Wass.
Life
His and his mother's names appear in the sources of the Chamber in Vienna as either János Wass or János Lanthos which can refer to the fact that he used his mother's name first, then that of his 'job', 'lantos' that means 'lutanist, bard'. He often titled himself as
Prince. He received regular subsidy from the court of King
Ferdinand I of Germany, who was his uncle by his wife, Queen
Anna Jagiellon, the sister of King
Louis II and then of King
Maximilian II, who was his cousin. From these financial backings he bought a house in
Pozsony (now
Bratislava), where he lived with family. He died there. He was never recognized officially as the son of the king.
Family
He had a long family, there was a rumour that a daughter of his gave birth to more than ten children and he demanded extra financial backings for his daughter's wedding. His and his children's existence means the survivorship of the
House of Jagiellon.
