First was Edward the Confessor and after he died it was Harold Godwinson and then William the Conqueror.
This is what William's Rep (if he had one) could of said : William has the best claim to the throne because Edward promised it to him. When Edward was a boy in 1016, King Cnut invaded England and Edward ran away to Normandy for safety. Edward stayed in Normandy until he became King of England in 1042. It was important, at that time, for Edward to protect his throne from attack and rebellion. Edward turned to William for help. He sent Norman soldiers to live in England and protect Edward. William's army is strong and could protect England no matter what the circumstances are. In return, Edward promised the English throne. Harold of Wessex also said that he should become King of England when Edward died.
