Katharine Howard was one of the many children born to the 2nd Duke of Norfolk, and one of 7 born to the fecund Duke’s second wife Agnes Tilney, Duchess of Norfolk. She was therefore the sister of Thomas Howard, the 3rdDuke of Norfolk, the duke so close to Henry VIII through most of his reign. Katherine Howard was born into this vast family somewher...
In terms of personal attraction and compatibility it seems to have been a pretty successful marriage. Both of them would prove to be proud, wild, ambitious, aggressive, relentless and rebellious. They were a team. And if things had gone as their Grandfather had planned, no doubt they would have ruled Wales in an impressive manner and been noted pil...
Katharine suspected that Ferrers had decided that Wales was not big enough for the both of them when they were set on by a band of robbers as they passed Oxford; but this was quite clearly a quarrel with two sides. Rhys aggressively pursued his rights as well as rights that were not strictly his, in a way that was at times exploitative as well and ...

She wrote personally to Wolsey in defence of her husband. It’s been pointed out that her letter ignored the normal convention of women submitting petitions, with none of the conventional pleas of fem...

Is it clear Lady Rhys ...
The Countess (Katharine) seems to have had enough wealth to maintain herself and a household in a house in Lambeth, with her 3 children probably with her though her boys were in wardship to her mother. The house was very close to the Howards’ London residence, Norfolk House. And it brings us to the next great event in the Countess’s life – the stor...
Katherine Brandon, Duchess of Suffolk, suo jure 12th Baroness Willoughby de Eresby (née Willoughby; 22 March 1519 – 19 September 1580), was an English noblewoman living at the courts of King Henry VIII, King Edward VI and Queen Elizabeth I.
3 de abr. de 2019 · by Linda Fetterly Root. When researching my recent novels focusing on the Gunpowder Treason and its aftermath, I uncovered a list of seven English aristocrats who were on retainer to the King of Spain. Had their identities become public after the events of November 5, 1605, there would have been a public outcry demanding they be tried for treason.
