We always have a good time with the grandkids. Talk about global warming. I don’t see any of my cousins very often. 2000). I’ve adopted her. Lady Eleanor Talbot (c. 1436 – June 1468), also known by her married name Eleanor Butler (or Boteler),[1] was an English noblewoman. The betrothal cannot be documented beyond the account rehearsed in Titulus Regius, and Richard never attempted to have the precontract authenticated by a church court, the proper venue for such a case".

Life sure has times of despair and sadness, but right now, mine is filled with love, beauty, and happiness. We’ve just lost the leaves off the trees. Not sure if this is a true story but I heard it somewhere.

What do you think? I love the rustic feel of it. There was also a lady, unnamed but quoted as the 'handsome young lady,' in 1534. My heart is filled with love!

I never heard the story about the girl and her Father. Some historians have agreed with this view. Stillington later joined the rebellion of Lambert Simnel against Henry in 1487. Henry probably first started suffering from periodic bouts of impotency during his marriage to Anne Boleyn. She was buried on 30 June in Norwich. She also considers it odd that Eleanor's family did not support Richard's claims about the precontract. Those involved in this little scheme were sentenced to be executed.

I don't have Philippa Jones's book, and I could not find any information about Thomas in my other Tudor books.

It has been speculated that Elizabeth Lucy and Eleanor Talbot were the other two. She was a mistress of Henry VIII . In her chronology she states; “1537: Queen Jane died giving birth to the future Edward VI.

The yarn is “Silk Garden” by Noro. According to Richard, this meant that he, rather than Edward's sons, was the true heir to the throne. He chatted with the young woman and took her on his horse back to his castle and the father never saw his daughter again. – Hell Yes! After the overthrow and death of Richard at the hands of Henry Tudor, the precontract alleged by Richard was presented as a fiction to justify Richard's usurpation of power and to cover his murder of the princes. Thomas died at an unknown date before Edward IV of England's overthrow of the House of Lancaster on 4 March 1461. But during his marriage to Anne and afterwards, did he really sleep with other women besides his wives?

I’ve also made my grandson, Luke, a couple hats. Thanks, Sharon.

In the book, The Other Tudors, Henry VIII's Mistresses and Bastards, Phillipa Jones names one of the women who was a mistress, Jane Pollard. If it had occurred before her marriage to Thomas Butler it would have been invalidated by the marriage.

I love that you can wear it with jeans, it’s stunning. As such the illegitimacy could not be overcome by the death of Eleanor before the birth of Elizabeth's sons, even if Edward and Elizabeth married 'again' after Eleanor's death. In 1508, he married Anne Browne and had 2 daughters. He was arrested and imprisoned in the Tower until his death in 1491.

It is also commonly argued by Ricardians that Stillington was imprisoned by Edward IV in 1478 because he incautiously spoke of the precontract to George, Duke of Clarence. Stillington had been briefly imprisoned and fined for speaking out against Edward IV in 1478. We have to remember that Anne and George reportedly talked of his sexual problems, it took eight months for Jane to become pregnant, portraits give the impression that the supposedly repulsive Anne of Cleves Henry just couldn't bring himself to sleep with was actually quite pretty, and that his sexual health supposedly suffered at times during his marriage to the young, beautiful Katherine Howard. On Charles Brandon's page in The Peerage, it rather bluntly describes the situation thusly: On 3 Dec. [1512], he received a grant of the wardship of Elizabeth, daughter and sole heiress of John Grey, viscount Lisle, of which he very soon took advantage in a rather questionable way, by making a contract of marriage with her; and next year, on 15 May, he was created Viscount Lisle, with succession to the heirs male of himself and Elizabeth Grey, viscountess Lisle, his wife, as she is called in the patent. When Catherine Parr died after giving birth to Thomas Seymour's child, Katherine Wiloughby took the baby into her home. I'll admit, though, that I have a bit of sown-in prejudice for her because I love Mary Tudor aka Katherine's husband Charles Brandon's first wife. And if we can clearly see that Anne of Cleves was attractive, then Henry's “refusal” to consummate the marriage would probably have risen some eyebrows. Handsome!
