Leo, Wm. Dunkeld and Wm. Canmore, I), king of Scotland (r. 1165-1214), was born in 1143. He succeeded Malcolm IV.

William is believed to be the founder of Arbroath Abbey where the Declaration of Arbroath was later drawn up. He was known as the Lion because of his flag, or standard, a red lion rampant on a yellow background. This went on to become the Royal standard of Scotland and is still used today by the British Monarch when in Scotland.

William also arranged the Auld Alliance, the first treaty for mutual self defence between nations. The treaty was agreed by Scotland, France, and Norway. Although Norway never took much part in it, it played some part in Franco-Scottish affairs until 1746.

William also inherited the title of Earl of Northumbria in 1152. However he was forced to give up this title to King Henry II of England in 1157. This caused trouble after William became king, since he spent a lot of effort trying to regain Northumbria. In 1174 during a raid in support of the revolt by Henry's wife and sons, William was captured by Henry's troops and taken in chains to Northampton, and then transferred to Falaise in Normandy. Henry then sent an army to Scotland and occupied it. As ransom and to regain his kingdom, William had to acknowledge Henry as his feudal superior and agree to pay for the cost of the English army's occupation of Scotland by taxing the Scots. This he did by signing the Treaty of Falaise. He was then allowed to return to Scotland. The Treaty of Falaise remained in force for the next fifteen years. At the end of that time the new English king, Richard the Lionheart, agreed to terminate it in return for 10,000 silver marks. Richard needed the money to take part in the Third Crusade.

William died in Stirling on the 4th December 1214 and was buried in Arbroath Abbey. He was succeeded by his son, Alexander II.


William the Lion (1143-1214), king of Scotland (1165-1214). He was a grandson of King David I and the brother of Malcolm IV, whom he succeeded. After a quarrel with King Henry II of England, William concluded an alliance between Scotland and France in 1168. In 1173, with King Louis VII of France, he aided Henry's sons in their unsuccessful rebellion against their father. William invaded Northumberland, and the next year, while raiding the countryside near Alnwick, he was captured by the English, who took him to Normandy (Normandie). He was able to obtain his freedom only by assenting to the Treaty of Falaise, which acknowledged Henry as overlord of Scotland. In 1188 William secured a papal bull guaranteeing the independence of the Scottish church from that of England, and in 1189 Henry's son Richard, who had succeeded him as king, annulled the Treaty of Falaise, surrendering all claims to suzerainty over Scotland in return for a large payment. William was succeeded by his son, Alexander II.

Sir William de Grandison of Asperton, County Hereford, was in service of Edmund, Earl of Lancaster. He was excepted from military duty in Gascony in 1294, in which year he appears as Governor of Jersey and Guernsey. He was summoned to Parliament from Feb. 6, 1208, to Oct. 10, 1325, by writs directed to Willimo de Grandisono, whereby he is held to have become Lord Grandison, and was present at a meeting of Parliament April 5, 1305, at the house of his brother, Otis de Grandison Archbishop of York in Westmenster. He was summoned to the Coronation of Edward II Jan. 18, 1307. Having been summoned for military service in 1322, he did not attend the muster, and his lands were seized; but the absence being due to severe illness, license was given him to remain at home for the more speedy restoration of his health, provided that he sent at least six men-at-arms for the expedition. On Sept. 20, 1329, he had respite of homage until Easter following as the King had learnt that he was so infirm and aged that he was unable to come. He was, however, summoned July 12, 1332, to be with the King at Michaelmas and take passage to Ireland on the expedition there. He married in or before 1285 Sybil, younger daughter of Sir John Tregoze of Ewyas, by his first wife Mabel, daughter of Fulke FitzWarine. On Nov. 26, 1300, it was ordered that the lands of Sir John Tregoze should be divided between William de Grandison and wife and the other co-heir they having done homage. Partition took place Dec. 1, 1300, by mutual assent. His wife died June 27, 1335.
William de Grandison was younger brother of Sir Otho de Grandison, who was Secretary to Edward I, and afterwards Lord Grandison. William was originally a menial servant to Edmund, Lord Pancaster, and obtained from that Prince in consideration for his own faithful services and the services of his ancestors a grant of the Manors of Radley and Menstreworth, County Gloucester. In the 20th of Edward I, 1292, he procured a license to make a castle of his home at Asperton, County Here ford, and in two years afterwards he was in the expedition made into Gascony, where he continued for some time, and while so engaged was summoned to Parliament as a Baron. He was afterwards engaged in the Scottish wars. His Lordship married Sibilla, daughter of Sir John Tregoze, and upon partition of the lands of that inheritance acquired the Manors of Burnham, County Somerset, and Eton in Herefordshire. He had issue by this lady three sons and three daughters: Peter, his successor, 2nd Baron Grandison; John, Bishop of Exeter; Otho, a distinguished soldier; Mabella married Sir John Patteshull; Katherine, of whom further; Agnes married Sir John Northwode.

SIR WILLIAM DE GRANDISON, of Ashperton, co. Hereford, &c.,younger brother of Otes DE GRANDISON, was in the service of Edmund, Earl of Lancaster. On 4 November 1288 he had letters of protection when remaining in Wales in order to fortify the castle of Carnarvon, and was still there 6 November 1289, taking the place of his brother, Otes de Grandison. On 3 May 1292 he had licence to strengthen his house of Ashperton with a wall of stone and lime and to crenellate it. He was excepted from military service in Gascony in 1294, in which year he appears as governor of Jersey and Guernsey for his brother. He was summoned to Carlisle for Military Service 26 September (1298). He was summoned to Parliament from 6 February 1298/9 to 10 October 1325, by writs directed Willelmo de Grandisono, whereby he is held to have become LORD GRANDISON; and was present at a meeting of Parliament, 5 April 1305 at the house of his brother, Otes de Grandison, Archbishop of York, in Westminster. He was summoned again for Military Service and to various Councils from 7 May 1299 to 21 March 1332/3. He was in Gascony with Edmund, Earl of Lancaster, before 1 January 1295/6, when his lands were restored to him, seized by the Crown on an order to take all lands, &c.,of alien laymen of the power of France, but William de Grandison was still in the King's faith. He was present at the siege of Carlaverock in July 1300. He was summoned to the Coronation of Edward II, 18 January 1307/8. On 23 February 1309/10 he had letters of protection on going beyond the seas. In 1318 the Prior of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem complained that William de Grandison and Piers, his son, and Otes, brother of Piers, and others had broken into his houses at Dartford in Kent and robbed and assaulted, to which accusation there was a counterclaim by William de Grandison that there had been theft of his goods there. Having been summoned for Military Service in 1322, he did not attend the muster, and his lands were seized; but the absence being due to severe illness, licence was given him to remain at home for the more speedy restoration of his health, provided that he sent at least 6 men-at-arms for the expedition. He had letters of protection going to Ireland 16 June 1327, and on 20 September 1329 had respite of homage till Easter following, as the King had learnt that he was so infirmand aged that he was unable to come. He was, however, summoned, 12 July 1332, to be with the King at Michaelmas and take passage to Ireland on the expedition there.

He married, in or before 1285, Sibyl, younger daughter and coheir of Sir John TREGOZ, of Ewyas Harold, &c. [LORD TREGOZ],by his 1st wife, Mabel, daughter of Sir Fulk FITZWARIN. On 26 November 1300 it was ordered that the lands of Sir John Tregoz should be divided between William de Grandison and his wife and the other coheir, they having done homage. The partition took place 21 December 1300 by mutual assent, but, after petitions concerning the knights' fees of Ewyas Harold, a final partition was made 29 October 1302. His wife died 21 October 1334, and was buried at Dore Abbey. He died 27 June 1335, and was presumably also buried at Dore Abbey. [Complete Peerage VI:60-2,(transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]

Note: CP doesn't mention any previous marriage to Blanche Savoie here, except in note (i), but does in volume I:418. In note (i)VI:61-2, CP gives evidence of a previous marriage of William (with two sons) to an unnamed wife, who I suppose is the Blanche de Savoie mentioned in I:418 as mother of one of the daughters Agnes.

--------------------------

Note: Since CP refers to brother Otes, who has the informationon the ancestry of William & Otes, I include part of the CP article for Otes (who also became a Baron and lived in Westminster) below:

SIR OTES DE GRANDISON was most probably son and heir. of Pierre DE GRANSON, SEIGNEUR DE GRANSON on the Lake of Neufchƒtel, by Agnes, daughter of Ulric, COMTE DE NEUFCHATEL, a grandson of Ebal IV, SEIGNEUR DE GRANSON (b).

(b) Pedigrees differ, sometimes his father being given as Guillaume and sometimes Pierre. On the other hand, M.L. de Charriere (whose work seems to be the most authentic), in 'Les Dynastes de Grandison', gives Amadee Seigneur de Granson (d.1300), as father of Otes and William de Grandison, by his wife Benoite de la Tour de Gerenstein. The last 'piece justicative' of this work is of date 1258 and there is no actual authority for the statement, without which it is almost impossible to overlook the fact of the entry in the Grandison breviary [in which William's (probably this William's) mother is said to be Agnes].

Note: Playing it safe, I am going with M.L. de Charriere's ancestry. It has Pierre and Agnes as grandparents.

---------------------------

William de Grandison (younger brother of Sir Otho de Grandison, secretary to King Edward I, and afterwards Lord Grandison), being originally a menial servant to Edmund, Earl of Lancaster, obtained from that prince, in consideration of his own faithful services and the services of his ancestors, a grant of the manors of Radley and Menstreworth, co. Gloucester. In the 20thEdward I [1292], he procured license to make a castle of hishouse at Asperton, co. Hereford, and in two years afterwards hewas in the expedition made into Gascony, where he continued for some time and, while so engaged, was summoned to parliament as a baron. He was afterwards engaged in the Scottish wars.

His lordship m. Sibilla, youngest dau. and fo-heiress of Sir John de Tregoz, and upon partition of the lands of that inheritance, acquired the manors of Burnham, co. Somerset, and Eton, in Herefordshire. He had issue by this lady, viz., Peter, John, Otho, Mabella, Katherine, and Agnes. His lordship d. before 1335 and was s. by his eldest son, Peter de Grandison, 2nd baron.

 1267 - 1284 Blanche de Savoy 17 17 1477 - 1539 Thomas Boleyn 62 62 Thomas Boleyn, 1st Earl of Wiltshire and 1st Earl of Ormonde (about 1477 - 12 March 1538/9), was a Tudor diplomat and politician and the father of Anne Boleyn, the second Queen of King Henry VIII. He was born and buried at the family home, Hever Castle.

He was born to William Boleyn (c. 1451 - October 10, 1505) and Margaret Butler (1465 - 1540). His paternal grandfather Geoffrey Boleyn (d. 1471) had served as Lord Mayor of London in 1457. His paternal grandmother Anne Hoo (c. 1425 - 1484) was herself daughter of Thomas, 1st Baron Hoo and Hastings and Elizabeth Wychingham. His maternal grandfather was Thomas Butler, 7th Earl of Ormonde (c. 1424 - August 3, 1515). His maternal grandmother Anne Hankford was herself granddaughter to John Montacute, 3rd Earl of Salisbury.
Boleyn married Lady Elizabeth Howard, daughter of Thomas Howard, 2nd Duke of Norfolk.

Through the connections of his extended family, he became one of King Henry VIII's leading diplomats. Known missions were:
1512 : one of a party of 3 envoys to the Netherlands.
1518 - 1521 : Ambassador to France, where he was involved in arrangements for the "Field of Cloth of Gold" meeting between Henry and the new French king Frances I in 1520.
1521 and 1523 : Envoy to Charles, prince of Castile, the Holy Roman Emperor.
1527 : One of a large envoy to France
1529 : Envoy to a meeting of Charles, Holy Roman Emperor and Pope Clement VII, to seek support for the divorce of Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon - perhaps not the best person to send when the Henry planned to marry Thomas's own daughter Anne. This was followed by another envoy to France.
In between, he sacrificed the members of his family to win favours from King Henry VIII: He garnered honours by letting the King dally with his elder daughter Mary, then marry his younger daughter Anne. Thomas's ambition was so considerable that rumour had it that he had even allowed his own wife to have an affair with the King, but these rumours have been disproved by modern historians.

Boleyn was created Viscount Rochford in the Peerage of England in 1525, and Earl of Wiltshire in the Peerage of England and Earl of Ormonde in the Peerage of Ireland on 8 December 1529, probably due to Anne's relationship with the King. His son, who predeceased him, was known by the viscomitial title; due to this, all of his titles became extinct upon his death.
Thomas acquiesced in the judicial murder of Anne and her brother Viscount Rochford when the king discarded Anne in favor of Jane Seymour. The kindest assessment of him is that he was very much a product of the times.

Viscount Rochford is an aristocratic title awarded to Sir Thomas Boleyn in 1525 by King Henry VIII. The title was taken from Boleyn's Rochford country estate in Essex. In 1529, Thomas was promoted even further when the King created him Earl of Wiltshire. In that same year, Thomas also inherited the wealth and title of his mother's ancestors, the earls of Ormonde. Thus, the title of Viscount Rochford went to Thomas's only son, George.
The title fell out of use in 1536 when George was executed on false charges of treason. In 1542, his widow was also executed after she was implicated in the fall of Queen Catherine Howard.

The name also appears in records as "de Hoo", implying a Norman connection.

The ancestral home of the Hoo family was Luton Hoo in Bedfordshire. It was held by the Hoo family from the time of King Canute the Dane until the death of Thomas in 1455.

Thomas was the son of Sir Thomas Hoo, 3rd and Eleanor Felton. His paternal ancestors include Hawise Fitzwarin, a descendent of WIlliam the Conqueror and Charlemagne, and Princess Dernell Canmor, daughter of King Alexander II of Scotland.

Thomas inherited the estates of his father as Lord of Hoo. He was made a Knight of the Garter for his service fighting in France. He also held titles as Sheriff of Bedfordshire and Chancellor of France. He became a great statesman and performed such services to the king as to be granted the barony of Hastings in 1443, thereby becoming Lord of Hoo and Hastings. Thomas married twice and had three daughters, but no sons. Upon his death in 1455, the barony became extinct.

Lord Thomas had a half brother, entitled Sir Thomas, son of his father's second wife, Elizabeth de Etchyngham; he was born in about 1416. Upon the death of Lord Thomas, Sir Thomas inherited Luton Hoo, being the only male heir. Apparently the brothers had an agreeable relationship. They are interred together in the Dacre Tomb at Herstmonceux All Saints Church in Sussex.

 1165 Robert de Hoo 1198 - 1249 Alexander Dunkeld 50 50 King of Scotland
son of William I, the Lion, and of Ermengarde of Beaumont, was born at Haddington in 1198, and succeeded to the kingdom on the death of his father on 4 December 1214.
The year after his accession the clans MacWilliam and MacHeth, inveterate enemies of the Scottish crown, broke into revolt; but loyalist forces speedily quelled the insurrection. In the same year Alexander joined the English barons in their struggle against John, and led an army into England in support of their cause; but after John's death, on the conclusion of peace between his youthful son Henry III and the French prince Louis, the Scottish king joined in the pacification. Diplomacy further strengthened the reconciliation by the marriage of Alexander to Henry's sister Joanna (or Joan) on June 18 or June 25, 1221.
The next year marked the subjection of the hitherto semi-independent district of Argyll. Royal forces crushed a revolt in Galloway in 1235 without difficulty; nor did an invasion attempted soon afterwards by its exiled leaders meet with success. Soon afterwards a claim for homage from Henry of England drew forth from Alexander a counter-claim to the northern English counties. The two kingdoms, however, settled this dispute by a compromise in 1237.
Joanna died in March, 1238 in Essex, and in the following year, 1239, Alexander remarried. His second wife was Mary of Coucy (Marie de Coucy). The marriage took place on May 15, 1239, and produced one son, the future Alexander III, born in 1241.
A threat of invasion by Henry in 1243 for a time interrupted the friendly relations between the two countries; but the prompt action of Alexander in anticipating his attack, and the disinclination of the English barons for war, compelled him to make peace next year at Newcastle. Alexander now turned his attention to securing the Western Isles, which still owed a nominal allegiance to Norway. He successively attempted negotiations and purchase, but without success. Alexander next attempted to dissuade Ewen, the son of Duncan, Lord of Argyll, to sever his allegiance to the Norwegian king. Ewen rejected these attempts, and Alexander sailed forth to compel him.
But on the way he suffered a fever at the Isle of Kerrera in the Inner Hebrides, and died there in 1249. He was buried at Melrose Abbey, Roxburghshire. His son Alexander III succeeded him as King of Scots.

She was one of three daughters of Gilbert de Clare, 7th Earl of Hertford and Joan of Acre, and sister of the infant fourth earl, also Gilbert de Clare. She accompanied her brother Gilbert to Ireland for their double wedding to two siblings -- the son and daughter of the Earl of Ulster. Elizabeth married John de Burgh on September 30, 1308.
He was the heir to the Earl of Ulster, and Elizabeth could expect to be a countess. She gave birth to their only child, a son, in 1312; he would become William Donn de Burgh, 3rd Earl of Ulster. Only a year later, her husband John was suddenly killed in a minor skirmish. Now a widow, Elizabeth remained in Ireland until another family tragedy demanded her return.
Her brother Gilbert was killed at the Battle of Bannockburn, and as he left no surviving issue and had no brothers, his property was equally divided between his sisters, Elizabeth, Eleanor and Margaret. Suddenly Elizabeth was one of the greatest heiresses in England. Her uncle, King Edward II of England, recalled her to the land of her birth so he could select a husband for her. She left Ireland in 1316, leaving behind her son William. Elizabeth never returned.
Edward II placed her in Bristol Castle, but his plans to marry her to one of his supporters were dashed in February 1316, when Elizabeth was abducted from Bristol by Theobald II de Verdun, the former Justiciar of Ireland. He and Elizabeth had been engaged before she was called back to England. She was Lady Verdun for only five months however, for Theobald died in September 1316 of typhoid. He left behind three daughters from a prior marriage and Elizabeth, who was pregnant. She fled to Amesbury Priory, where she stayed under the protection of her aunt Mary, who was a nun there. There she gave birth to her daughter, Isabella de Verdun, named for the queen, in February 1317. Just a few weeks later, Edward II married Elizabeth to Sir Roger D'Amory.
D'Amory had been a knight in her brother's service who rose to prominence as a favorite of Edward II. Now married to him, Elizabeth was caught up in the political upheavals of her uncle's reign. She gave birth to another daughter, Elizabeth D'Amorie, in May 1318. Roger was reckless and violent, and made a deadly enemy of his brother-in-law, Hugh the younger Despenser. He switched sides over to Thomas, Earl of Lancaster, and died in March 1322, having been captured by royalist forces. He left Elizabeth defenseless, and she was captured and imprisoned at Barking Abbey with her children.
Elizabeth supported her friend, Queen Isabella, when she invaded England and she benefited greatly from the reign of Isabella's son, King Edward III of England. She took a vow of chastity after Roger's death, effectively removing herself from the aristocratic marriage market. She enjoyed a long and fruitful widowhood, becoming patroness of many religious houses. Elizabeth is best remembered for having used much of her fortune to found Clare College, Cambridge.

 1290 - 1322 Roger of Amory 32 32 Roger d'Amory (b. ca. 1290—d. bef. March 14, 1321/1322) was baron d'Amory, the son of Robert or Gilbert d' Amory (ca. 1230-1285).

He was born in Knaresborough, Yorkshire, Kingdom of England, and died at Tutbury Castle, Staffordshire, England. He was a favorite of King Edward II of England until he was displaced by Hugh the younger Despenser.

He was married May 3, 1317 to Lady Elizabeth de Clare, her third husband. They had one child, Elizabeth d'Amory. She was married to John de Bardolph, 3rd Baron Bardolph (1311 - 1363) and was mother to William de Bardolph, 4th Baron Bardolph (1349 - 1386).

4th son, William de Beauchamp, Knight of the Garter, Lord of Abergavenny. (He was cousin of John, Lord Hastings, Lord of Abergavenny and Earl of Pembroke, whose grandmother was Agnes Mortimer, sister of William's mother, Catherine de Mortimer.) He succeeded to the Castle and Honour of Abergavenny by virtue of the entail made by John, Earl of Perbroke, who was Seignior of Wieseford and Bergavenny. He served under the gallant Chandos and subsequently, in the wars with France, with great distinction, and in 1375/6 was, by Edward III, nominated Knight of the Garter. Having succeeded to the lands of Abergavenny, he was summoned to Parliament from July 23, 1392, to December 18, 1409, as a baron as Lord Bergavenny of Beauchamp of Bergavenny.

 1397 Richard of Beauchamp 1397 - 1431 Richard Hankford 33 33 1385 - 1457 Anne Montacute 72 72 1350 - 1400 John Montacute 50 50 He was an English nobleman, one of the few who remained loyal to Richard II to the very end.

He was the son of Sir John Montacute and Margaret de Monthermer. His father was the younger brother of William Montacute, 2nd Earl of Salisbury. His mother was the granddaughter and heiress of Ralph de Monthermer.
As a young man Montacute distinguished himself in the war with France, and then went to fight against the pagans in Prussia, probably on the expedition led by the Henry Bolingbroke (the future Henry IV of England).
He was summoned to parliament in 1391 as Baron Montacute.
Montacute was a favorite of the king during the early years of the reign of Richard II. He accompanied the king during his expeditions to Ireland in 1394 and 1395, and as a privy councilor was one of the principal advocates of the king's marriage to Isabella of Valois. During the trips to France associated with the marriage he met and encouraged Christine de Pisan, whose son was educated in the Montacute household.
With the death of his mother around this time he inherited the barony of Monthermer and its estates.
Montacute was a prominent Lollard, and was remonstrated by the king for this.
In 1397 he became Earl of Salisbury on the death of his uncle. He continued as one of the major aristoratic allies of the king, helping to secure the fall of the Duke of Gloucester and the Earl of Warwick. He persuaded the king to spare the life of Warwick. He received a portion of the forfeited Warwick estates, and in 1399 was made a Knight of the Garter.
Early in 1400 he went to on a successful mission to France to prevent the proposed marriage of Henry Bolingbroke and a daughter of the Duke of Berry. In May he again accompanied Richard II on an expedition to Ireland. When news reached them of that Bolingbroke had returned to England, Montacute was sent to Wales to raise opposing forces. When these deserted Montacute advised Richard to flee to Bordeaux. Instead Richard was imprisoned, Henry took the throne, and in October Montacute was arrested along with many of Richard's former councilors, and held in the Tower of London.
Montacute had to answer charges related to the arrest and subsequent death of the duke of Gloucester in 1397. Eventually he was released, due to the intercession of king Henry's sister Elizabeth, Countess of Huntingdon.
Not long after his release Montacute joined with the Earl of Huntingdon and others in a plot to kill king Henry and restore Richard II. After the plot failed he was caught and executed. His eldest son Thomas eventually recovered the earldom, though the attainder against John Montacute was not reversed until the accession of Edward IV in 1461.
Montacute married Maud Francis, daughter of Adam Francis, who was a citizen of London.

As the Earl of Surrey, Howard fought for King Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth Field in 1485, following which he was imprisoned for several years before having his titles and estates restored. He continued in the service of the Tudor dynasty and was Lieutenant General of the North and largely responsible for the defeat of the Scots at the Battle of Flodden in 1513.

In 1514, Howard was restored to the dukedom of Norfolk which had been forfeit since 1485.

He died in 1524 and was buried in Thetford Priory. The priory was abandoned at the Dissolution of the Monasteries and while some of the Howard family tombs were moved to the St Michael the Archangel, Framlingham it is not known whether his tomb was moved also. Fragments of what is thought to be from his tomb were found during excavations.
Where his body now lies is not known for certain. A monumental brass depicting him was formerly in the Church of St. Mary at Lambeth so his body could have been moved to the Howard family chapel where many members of his family (including Anne Boleyn's mother) were interred.
However it is known that there are also four coffins in the tomb of the 3rd Duke of Norfolk at St Michael the Archangel, Framlingham so possibly the 2nd Duke and the 1st Duke of Norfolk were buried in the tomb of their descendant.

son of Philip and Isabel Thorpe
 1214 - 1281 Isabel Bertram 67 67 1269 - 1315 Joan Engaine 46 46 1375 - 1453 Joan FitzAlan 78 78 1251 - 1315 Fulk Fitzwarine 64 64 1500 - 1534 Mary Boleyn 34 34 The Lady Mary Boleyn (c. 1500 - July 19, 1543) was granddaughter to Thomas Howard, 2nd Duke of Norfolk, daughter to Elizabeth Howard and leading diplomat Thomas Boleyn, 1st Earl of Wiltshire, sister to George Boleyn, Viscount Rochford and Anne Boleyn (by whose fame she has been eclipsed).
Mary was the mistress of Henry VIII of England and is purported to have been mistress of Francis I of France as well. She was married twice to members of Henry's court and bore children who were in the court of her niece Elizabeth I of England.

Mary was born in Blickling Hall in Norfolk sometime between 1499 and 1504. She is generally believed to have been older than her famous sister Anne, though there is some controversy regarding this. It was once believed that it was Mary who spent time as a companion to Archduchess Margaret of Austria, daughter of Maximilian I, Holy Roman Emperor and Mary of Burgundy, but it is now clear that it was Anne.

In her biography of Anne Boleyn, Joanne Denny writes that Mary's grandson, Lord Hunsdon stated he was certain that Mary was the elder sister. In 1597 he claimed the Earldom of Ormonde through his grandmother. If Anne had been the elder sister then it would have been her daughter, Queen Elizabeth who would have had the right to the title.

Several books mention that Mary Boleyn accompanied Mary Tudor, daughter of Henry VII of England and Elizabeth of York who had become the new Queen consort of Louis XII of France, to France, as Maid of Honour. While many of the Queen's English maids were ordered to leave France, Mary Boleyn was allegedly permitted to remain, probably because of her father's connections as the new English ambassador.
When Mary Tudor left France after Louis' death on January 1, 1515, Mary Boleyn allegedly stayed in the court of the new king and queen, Francis I and Claude of France.

This is believed to have led to Mary becoming mistress to the new king of France who reportedly called her "my English mare" and "a great whore, the most infamous of all" in his later years. Many believe this story, given that Mary subsequently later embarked on numerous, scandalous affairs. As for the rumor regarding Francis I of France, there is no definitive proof. It is generally accepted by many historians.
Her sister Anne and her father eventually joined her in France, both of them apparently mortified by Mary's actions. She was sent home in either 1519 or 1520 following the illicit marriage of Queen Mary Tudor. She was then placed in the service of Catherine of Aragon, daughter of Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile. Catherine had served as the Queen consort of Henry VIII since June 11, 1509.

Shortly after going back to England, February 4, 1520, Mary married Sir William Carey, a courtier. Henry VIII was a guest at the couple's wedding, and Mary soon became the king's lover. Popular legend states that Mary bore Henry two illegitimate children, but this seems unlikely. One witness did note that Mary's son had a strong resemblance to Henry VIII, but this could have been conjecture, flattery or a lie. Henry usually acknowledged all male bastards as his own and when he finished with Mary he had not yet fallen for her sister Anne, thus meaning that there was no reason for him to deny paternity of the child if he had been the father. Furthermore, recent evidence suggests that Mary's youngest daughter Catherine was not born until 1529, by which time Henry's affair with her had been over for almost six years. Mary's children both bore the surname of Carey and it is not true that Sir William Carey received his knighthood and lands because he was married to the king's mistress or official father of the king's bastards. Even before his marriage to Mary Boleyn, William Carey was a prominent courtier and a favourite of the king who would have gained such rewards inevitably.

Mary's sister was called back to England in 1522, and it is uncertain how much effect either sister had on the rising fortunes of their father, who was created a Viscount in 1525. But, by mid-1523, Mary's affair with Henry was finished. A year or so later, Henry fell victim to the charms of the brilliant, bewitching and cultured Anne Boleyn. After many attempts by Henry to seduce Anne, she boldly told him that she would only be his Queen and wife, not his mistress. For nearly six years she kept the King waiting, denying him any sexual favors. But Henry was determined, not to mention infatuated with Anne to the point of citizens suspecting witchcraft on her part. By 1527, he had proposed marriage.
A year later, when Mary's husband died during an outbreak of the sweats, Henry VIII promptly granted Anne Boleyn the wardship of her nephew (and possibly his son), two-year-old Henry Carey. At the time of William's death, Mary was pregnant with his daughter - who was born in 1529 and named Catherine. Anne arranged for Mary's son to be educated at a respectable Cistercian monastery. Mary's callous father showed no intention of helping her in the financial plight resulting from her husband's death. It was only Anne's intercession with Henry that secured Mary a small annual pension.

When Anne went to Calais with Henry VIII in 1532, Mary was one of Anne's companions. Anne was crowned Queen on June 1, 1533. In 1534, Mary secretly married Sir William Stafford, an usher of no rank and small income. When this was discovered, her family disowned her for marrying beneath her station, and the couple was banished from the Court.
In late 1534, while her father and brother received numerous grants, titles, and other gifts, Mary was reduced to begging Thomas Cromwell to speak to Henry on her behalf. Mary hoped Henry would persuade Anne to forgive her but her former lover was less than helpful. So Mary asked Cromwell to speak to her father, her uncle, and her brother to no avail. Anne sent Mary a magnificent golden cup and some money. This partial reconciliation was the closest the two sisters ever came again, since they did not meet between 1534 and Anne's death in 1536.
Her life between 1534 and her sister's execution on May 19, 1536 is difficult to trace. Mary did not visit her sister when Anne was imprisoned in the Tower of London. Nor did she visit their brother George also condemned to death on charges of treason (they were accused of incest). There is no evidence that she wrote to them, either. Like their uncle, Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk, she may have thought it wise to avoid association with her disgraced relatives.
She seems to have resided at Rochford, Essex and lived out the rest of her days in anonymity with her husband. She died on July 19, 1543.

It is actually possible that Catherine was the elder of Mary's first two children, as the exact dates are still uncertain.
Both children have been suggested as illegitimates of Henry VIII of England, although many historians consider this to be unlikely.
Her marriage to Sir William Stafford (d. May 5, 1556) resulted in the birth of a son. He is considered to have been born in 1535 and to have died in 1545; there was also a daughter, named Anne. This, however, is open to much speculation.

SIR ROBERT DE FELTON, of Litcham, Norfolk, whose parentage is unknown.[b] On 17 March 1297/9 he had a grant in reward for his services in Flanders. He was in the Army of Scotland in 1298, and in 1300, being Constable of Lochmaben Castle in that year. He was again serving in Scotland in 1303 and 1310. He was Constable of Scarborough Castle 6 March I31I/2 to 31 March 1312. On 15 September 1312 the King granted him for life, for his good services, the manor of Shotwick, co. Chester,
which Roger Lestraunge had beld. He was summoned for Military Service, 9 October 1311, and to Parliament from 8 January 1312/3) to 26 November 1313, by writs directed Roberto de Felton', whereby he is held to have become LORD FELTON.

He married Hawise, daughter of Sir John LESTRAUNGE, [1st Lord Strange of Knockin], Salop, by Alianore, daughter of Eble de Montz, by Joan, widow of Stephen DE SOMERY, of Dudley, co. Worcester. She, who had the manor of Litcham in marriage, was living 16 May 1303. He died 24 June 1314, being slain at the battle of Bannockburn. [Complete Peerage V:289-90, XIV:318, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]

(b) He was probably br. of the contemporary Sir William de Felton, of Edlingham, who bore similar arms. Those of Robert were' Gules, two lions passant Ermine (Parliamentary Roll, no. 882 : &C.), derived from those of Lestraunge. The Felton whence this. family took its name was Felton by Knockin in the march of Wales, which was in the liberty of John Lestraunge of Knockin (Patent Poll, 32 Edw. I, M. 28 d). There is a Felton in Northumberland, near Edlingham, which latter manor Sir William de Felton (abovenamed) had purchased, but the family under consideration had no connection with this Felton.
