At the highest social levels, there were the kings eldest sons (Henry and Thomas) who served with small retinues although they were only twelve and eleven years old, respectively. Although the princes were clearly too young to exercise effective command over large bodies of soldiers, there could not have been a better way of emphasising to both the English and their Scottish enemy the stability, and indeed virility, of the new regime than the king leading out an army alongside his two eldest sons, in succession to the childless Richard II. The symbolic value of such a formation would not have been lost on the king, but nor would the need to bolster the princes' divisions with men of high status and greater military experience, or at least greater age. In the groupings of Curson's particulars, Thomas of Lancaster is placed with the earl of Rutland, Walter, Lord Fitzwalter, and Richard, Lord Grey of Codnor. Meanwhile, Prince Henrys group contained units led by Edmund, earl of Stafford and William, Lord Ferrers of Groby, plus the 244 men-at- arms mustered by the treasurer and controller of the royal household, Thomas Tutbury and Robert Litton

Kat's family tree 2/2

To celebrate the new lovepack I made a new sim. I'm actually considering making a new supersim, and originally I wanted to go super-hardcore and have a couple get pregnant and their child would be my supersim, and I'd give them literally everything I could possibly give them in terms of aspirations, skills, memories from their entire childhood etc. But do I have the patience for that? I don't think so. 😅

So for now, I made a new sim, and she was single for a solid six minutes. I'm usually quick to jump into relationships in this game, but apparently the game wanted to take action even before me, which I hope was just a random happening and not something that'll happen every time a date goes well. (I mean I know I can click no to them becoming a couple, but whatever).

But yeah, her name's Winona Stafford! It's the brunette. The girl she's dating is named Anne Brown-Henning, and is actually a descendant of a different family (who also married into the Biggs family). Long story short, no matter how hard I try not to get involved with the Biggs, there's just too many of them.

The earldom of Ormond passed through the general line rather than being limited to heirs male. Hunsdon's claim was, therefore, based on the assumption that the earldom should have passed from himself to his father by virtue of their descent from Thomas Boleyn's eldest daughter, Mary. [...] The earldom, therefore, consisted of a title only, to which Elizabeth had no claim because she was 'daughter and heir of Anne, youngest daughter of said Sir Thomas Bullen, late Earl of Ormond.' Hundson reiterated that, since his grandmother was the eldest daughter, his earldom ought to descend to him. [...] Such evidence is compelling. Had he been mistaken [...] Elizabeth [I] could easily have corrected him and claimed the earldom for herself to dispose of as she pleased.

The same was found in later reigns; the Crown had inbuilt advantages which an energetic king could exploit when it came to securing land. Anne, countess of Stafford had little option but to accept the new division of the Bohun estates as laid down by Henry V. Joan, dowager countess of Hereford, who had held dower in the Bohun lands since the last earl's death in 1373, died in 1419. Henry V then brought a case for the redivision of the inheritance on the grounds that the profits of his share, inherited from his mother Mary de Bohun, were 100 marks less than those derived from the pourparty of Anne's mother Eleanor. Anne's arguments for accepting the original division were overruled and a new partition drawn up. Although this ostensibly still gave Anne greater profits than Henry, her responsibility for arrears due to the king from Brecon, which was allotted to her, and the growing problems of securing revenues from Welsh lordships, meant that she probably lost on the deal. Anne was also anxious to secure lands held by her father Thomas of Woodstock, and here persistence and determination paid off in the end and she secured the lordships of Oakham and Holderness. It is significant that when her father's attainder was reversed by Henry IV he 'forgot' Anne's claim and granted Holderness to his son Thomas, whose widow refused to surrender the lordship after his death in 1421. It appears that Anne did not secure the lordship until the year before she died.

The Waiting Game

Tudor England is one of my great loves. It’s one of my favourite time periods to read about and engross myself in. Since I’ve been a fan for so long, the fact that historians are now pulling out the lesser known stories is something I find thrilling and I feel like there’s a whole new world out there for me to explore. Catherine of Aragon – and Anna of Kleve – had to learn English, Anne Boleyn…
