The PAINFUL Deaths Of The Forgotten Boleyn Sons

Описание: The most famous Boleyn’s of the Tudor period were undoubtedly Anne Boleyn who became the second wife of King Henry VIII, Mary Boleyn who would become the King’s mistress, and George Boleyn who would famously lose his head being implicated in the same scandal as his sister Anne when she was the Queen. However it is known that there were at least two other Boleyn children, and the evidence for this is scarce inside of the History books, but their deaths are recorded and there are graves for them. In around 1498 Thomas Boleyn married Lady Elizabeth Howard, and these would of course become the parents of the Boleyn children. It’s not known exactly when they married, and Thomas Boleyn would later state, ‘When I married I had only 50£ a year to live on for me and my wife as long as my father lived, and yet she brought me every year a child.”

He liked to think himself as a self-made man, and Thomas Boleyn was rather powerful obsessed. He wanted more influence and wealth for himself, and many of the reasons at the time Tudor nobles were having children was to guarantee power and wealth for years to come if their children married into certain families. The boleyns of course would become the most famous, or infamous family of Henry VIII’s time, and despite their incredibly high rise to prominence in society, they would fall sharply from grace with the swing of the executioner’s axe. But Thomas Boleyn would father many children with his wife, and Elizabeth his wife fell pregnant rather quickly. There are at least 5 Boleyn Children but what occurred to the other Boleyn’s that are not the most well known.
