; per Faris (1999) pp. 270-271: [quote] HERBERT PELHAM, Esq., was born about 1600 (aged twenty-six at marriage). He was married for the first time, with licence dated 13 Oct. 1626, to JEMIMA WALDEGRAVE, second daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Waldegrave, Esq., of Ferriers Court in Bures-ad-montem, Essex, later of Bevers Hamlet, Essex (of Magna Carta Surety descent), by Margaret, daughter and heiress of John Holmstead, Esq., of Halstead, Essex. She was born about 1606 (aged twenty at marriage). The first five children were baptised at Bures in 1627, 1629, 1630 and 1633, and at St. Margaret's Westminster in 1629. As early as 1629 Herbert Pelham agreed to invest in the Winthrop project of colonization with his father-in-law, and invested some £3, 000 in the venture. The two families embarked from Gravesend, but Thomas Waldegrave and his wife went ashore at Deal in Kent before leaving English waters because of her illness. Herbert Pelham appears to have sailed from Gravesend with his family sometime between September 1639 and December 1640, and his wife died during the crossing. Shortly after arrival in New England he was married for the second time to ELIZABETH (BOSVILE) HARLAKENDEN, widow, with two daughters, of Roger Harlakenden (died November 1638), and daughter of Geoffrey Bosvile, Esq., of Gunthwaite, co. York, by Margaret, daughter of Edward Greville, Knt., of Harold Park, Essex (descendant of King Edward I) [see BOSVILE 1 for her ancestry]. After marriage they lived in the Harlakenden household at Cambridge. He cleared large farms south of the river on Harlakenden property in Lexington and Bedford, and in Cambridge. At the request of Thomas Waldegrave, he returned to England in the winter of 1641 and, having come to an agreement concerning his first wife's property, returned to New England and took a prominent part in the affairs of the community. He was first Treasurer of Harvard College in 1643, and Commissioner of the United Colonies in 1645. He was active with the Society for Promoting and Propagating the Gospel in New England. He returned to England in the Supply on 9 Nov. 1646, and resided at Bures, Essex, on property inherited through his first wife. On 25 Aug. 1659 letters to administer the estate of ELIZABETH PELHAM, late of Ferriers, in Bures, Essex, were granted to her husband Herbert. HERBERT PELHAM, ESQ., was buried at Bures, Essex, on 1 July 1674.

      ; "Sir Thomas Boleyne. This gentleman took up arms in the 12th of Henry VII., with his father and other persons of rank, against the Cornish rebels; and in the beginning of the next reign, being one of the knights of the king's body, was constituted governor of the castle of Norwich, jointly with Sir Henry Wyatt, Knt., master of the king's jewel-house. In the next year he was one of the ambassadors to the Emperor Maximilian, touching a war with France; and a few years afterwards was appointed sole constable of Norwich Castle. In the 11th of the same reign, being ambassador to France, he arranged the preliminaries for he famous interview between his royal master and Francis I., between Guisnes and Ardres. In three years afterwards he was ambassador to the court of Spain, and was advanced to the peerage 18 June, 1525, in the dignity of Viscount Rochford. In 1527 his lordship was one of the commissioners to invest eh King of France with the order of the Garter. In 1529 he subscribed the articles then exhibited against Cardinal Wolsey; and on 8 December, in the same year, being then a knight of the Garter, he was advanced to the Earldoms of Wiltshire and Ormonde - the former to the heirs of his body, and the latter to heirs-general, to the injury, however, of Sir Piers Butler, the 8th earl rightfully of Ormonde, who instead was created Earl of Ossory.

The Earl of Wiltshire and Ormonde d. in 1538, two years after his unhappy son and dau., when the Viscounty of Rochford and Earldom of Wiltshire became extinct; that of Ormonde being to heirs-general, fell into abeyance between the representatives of his daus. "On the death of Queen Elizabeth, says Nicolas, "the only issue of Anne Boleyne, the eldest co-heir, became extinct, when it is presumed that the abeyance, agreeably to the limitation, terminated, and consequently that dignity reverted to the representative of the other co-heir, the heir-general of whom is the present Earl of Berkeley, and under the said limitation, must probably be considered as Earl of Ormonde."¹² He was Ambassador to the Emperor Maximilian in the Low Countries.¹¹

With his father, he was in arms against the Cornish rebels at Blackheath in June 1497. He was married by 1506, probably about 1500, to ELIZABETH HOWARD, elder daughter of Thomas Howard, Knt., 2nd Duke of Norfolk (descendant of King Edward I), by his first wife Elizabeth, daughter and heiress of Frederick Tilney, Knt., of Ashwellthorpe, Norfolk [see MOWBRAY 6 for her ancestry]. He was Knight of the Body to King Henry VIII, and by 1512 was rapidly rising in royal favour. He was Ambassador to the Emperor Maximilian in the Low Countries, P.C. 1518, Ambassador to France January 15 18/9, appointed to be present at the Field of Cloth of Gold, Comptroller of the Household 1520, and Treasurer thereof, 1522-25. His acquisition of numerous Stewardships and Keeperships and gradually of high honours marks the progress of the favour which his daughters Mary and Anne, in turn, found in the eyes of King Henry VIII. He was created Viscount Rochford on 18 June 1525, Earl of Wiltshire in England and Earl of Ormond in Ireland on 8 Dec. 1529. He was present at the baptism of his grand-daughter Princess Elizabeth on 10 Sep. 1533.

; Faris (1999) pp362-363: [quote] HENRY VIII OF ENGLAND, Duke of Cornwall, Earl of Chester, Prince of Wales (after the death of his elder brother Arthur), second but eldest surviving son, was born at Greenwich on 28 June 1491. He succeeded his father as King of England on 22 Apr. 1509, and was crowned on 24 June 1509. He was married for the first time at Greenwich on 3 June 1509 to KATHERINE OF ARAGON, widow of his older brother Arthur, and daughter of Ferdinand, King of Aragon, by Isabella, daughter of John II, King of Castile. She was born at Alcala de Henares on 15 Dec. 1485. They had one surviving daughter, later Queen Mary. In 1511 Henry was induced by his father-in-law Ferdinand of Spain to join the Holy League, and in the following year joined Spain and the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian in a war against France. Leading an English army of eleven thousand men to northern France, Henry and Maximilian laid siege to the town of Thérouanne, and in August routed the French at the Battle of the Spurs (so-called because the French army, having seen the superior forces against them, fled the field) on 16 Aug. 1513. On 22 Aug. 1513, King James IV of Scotland invaded England, and was defeated by Thomas Howard, Earl of Surrey, at the Battle of Flodden Field, with the death of James IV and many of his nobility, on 9 Sep. 1513. Henry, in France, continued his campaign with the capture of the town of Tournai, but then returned to England for the winter. As Maximilian and Ferdinand refused to continue war against France, Henry signed a treaty with France, and married his sister to the King of France. On 7 June 1520 Henry VIII and Francois I of France met in a peace conference at the boundary of the Calais marches and France called the Field of the Cloth of Gold (from the elaborate display of the participants). Henry always regarded himself as Catholic while much of the continent was experiencing the Protestant Reformation. In 1521, he wrote Defense of the Seven Sacraments, an anti-Lutheran tract, for which Pope Leo X bestowed on him the title Defensor Fidei (Defender of the Faith). Henry Tudor had an affair from 1522 to 1526 with Mary Boleyn, wife of William Carey, Esq., Gentleman of the Privy Chamber and Esquire of the Body, and daughter of Thomas Boleyn, Earl of Wiltshire (descendant of King Edward I) [see BUTLER 4 for her ancestry]. She was born 1500-4, and had two children, Henry and Katherine, during the affair [see CAREY 3 & 2 for evidence that they were children of Henry Tudor]. Henry wanted to marry Mary's younger sister, Anne Boleyn, and requested, unsuccessfully, an annulment of his marriage to Katherine from Pope Clement VII. In 1529 he dismissed his Lord Chancellor, Cardinal Thomas Wolsey, for failure to obtain the dissolution of the marriage to Katherine. Thomas Cromwell now became the king's chief adviser. At Henry's demand, the Convocation of the clergy acknowledged the King as supreme head of the Church of England free from Rome, and Parliament passed an Act confirming the King's new title. Henry's position as both King and Pope in his own realm demanded, as necessary, the signing by a subject of an oath of supremacy, a refusal to which often ended in execution. Henry then received the marriage annulment from Thomas Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury. KATHERINE OF ARAGON was divorced on 23 May 1533, and died at Kimbolton Castle on 7 Jan. 1536. HENRY TUDOR was married for the second time at Whitehall on 25 Jan. 1533 to ANNE BOLEYN, sister of Mary Boleyn, daughter of Thomas Boleyn, 1st Earl of Wiltshire, by Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Howard, 2nd Duke of Norfolk [see BUTLER 4]. She was born at Blickling Hall, Norfolk, about 1507, and grew up at Hever Castle, Kent. They had one surviving daughter, later Queen Elizabeth. ANNE BOLEYN, found guilty of adultery, was beheaded on Tower Green on 19 May 1536 and buried in the Chapel of the Tower. The monasteries, regarded as strongholds of support for the papacy, were dissolved, 1536-1539. The monastic lands were seized by Henry and sold to the landed gentry. In 1536 a revolt, known as the Pilgrimage of Grace, broke out in conservative northern England occasioned by the suppression of the monasteries. HENRY TUDOR was married for the third time at Wolf Hall, Savernake, co. Wilts, on 20 May 1536 to JANE SEYMOUR, daughter of John Seymour, Knt., of Wolf Hall, by Margery, daughter of Henry Wentworth, Knt., of Nettlestead, Suffolk [see RODNEY 5]. She was born about 1509, and had been a lady in waiting to Queen Katherine and Queen Anne. They had one son, later King Edward VI. JANE SEYMOUR died, uncrowned, at Hampton Court Palace after child birth on 14 Oct. 1537.

; per van de Pas: "John's father was a small landowner and his mother a member of the family of the Mowbray Dukes of Norfolk. With his mother's connection giving him an entry to Court circles, he chose the Yorkist side and first became a confidant of King Edward IV, then, after his death, of King Richard III.

Both John Howard and his son Thomas were close to Richard III and seem to have benefitted. In 1475 the last Duke of Norfolk in the Mowbray line had died. His daughter, Anne Mowbray, was married at the age of five to the equally infant Duke of York, the second son of King Edward IV. However, in 1481 at the age of eight, Anne Mowbray died and her husband, as Duke of York and Norfolk, was expected to inherit her lands. But then Edward IV died in 1483 and Richard, Duke of Gloucester, together with both father and son Howard, stood to benefit by the removal of the two young princes, Edward V and the Duke of York.

As Constable of the Tower, John Howard received Edward V for the preparation of his coronation. A month later the Duke of York joined his brother in the Tower. It was John Howard who pursuaded the Dowager Queen to allow this to happen. On 25th June 1483 the Duke of Gloucester was urged to take the throne and, on the 28th of June, John Howard was created Duke of Norfolk and Earl Marshal of England while his son Thomas was created Earl of Surrey. On 8th July the Duke of Gloucester became King Richard III and it was John Howard who carried the crown and Thomas Howard the Sword of State.

If John Howard (who, as Constable of the Tower had free access there) was created Duke of Norfolk on 28 June 1483, where was the young Duke of York and Norfolk? However, we may never have an answer to this mystery. It seems probable that violence brought Richard III the crown and John Howard the Dukedom, and violence took both their lives only two years later.

The King died in the battle of Bosworth as so did John Howard, while Thomas Howard survived but was imprisoned in the Tower when Henry VII, the new king, attainted him for High Treason."² He was Knight of the Garter in 1472.² He was 1st Duke of Norfolk; Earl Marshal of England on 23 June 1483.^6,14,3

     Katherine de Moleyns was born before 1425.^1,2 She married Sir John Howard KG, Lord Howard, 1st Duke of Norfolk, son of Sir Robert Howard Knt., KG, of Stoke Nayland, Suffolk and Lady Margaret Mowbray, in 1440
; his 1st wife; Weis (AR) says 1440. Burke's says ca 1443.^7,8,1,2,9,3
Katherine de Moleyns died on 3 November 1465 at Stoke-by-Nayland, co. Suffolk, England.^7,2,3
      ; CPR Hen. VI, 2:156 identifies Eleanor Moleyns as "the heir" of the younger William Moleyns (d. 1429). Since Katherine, wife of John Howard, Duke of Norfolk, did not die until 1465, if she had been a daughter of the younger William Moleyns (d. 1429), she should have been mentioned as a co-heir. Since she was not, it is almost certain she was the daughter of the elder William Moleyns (d. 1425). Katherine was, most likely, a little older than her husband.
