    John HowardQDuke of Norfolk: A Possible Murderer of the Princes? ANNE CRAWFORD THAT JOHN, Loan HOWARD, created Duke of Norfolk by Richard III, was the man responsible for the deaths of Edward V and Richard, Duke of York, is a comparatively new theory.l For five hundred years after they died, no mention is made of Howard in the context of the murder. The first suggestio'n that he might have been involved was made in 1844 by Payne Collier, who edited Howard’s second volume of household accounts. In them he found an entry noting payment made on May 21, 1483, to six men for a day’s labour at the Tower, -to the carpenter for making three beds and for two sacks of lime.2 The reference to the beds and lime set Payne Collier’s mind working upon novel lines, but his suggestion that Howard might have had something to do with the murders was not followed up for more than a hundred years. A much more elaborate case is propounded by Melvin 1. Tucker in his biography of Thomas Howard, second Duke of Norfolk, John’s son and heir. He bases his case on “a strong motive and a series of interesting coincidences”.3 The motive was the Howards’ desire to gain their rightful half-share of the Mowbray inheritance of the‘ dukes of Norfolk, at that time vested in Richard, Duke of York and Norfolk, widower of the Mowbray heiress, and possibly the dukedom itself.‘ The coincidences may briefly be summarised. They include, according to Tucker, the fact that Howard was Constable of the Tower and therefore had access to the princes, the entry in his accéunts for the beds and lime, his past friendship with the Protector, the role he played in persuading the queen to give up York and the support he continued to give Richard for the rest of his reign.

  • The Howard and De Vere Women in the Late Fifteenth Century
    Victims of Attainder: The Howard and de Vere Women in the Late Fifteenth Century Anne Crawford. Public Record Office Most English estates and businesses in the later Middle Ages would have been run less efficiently with.ollt the active cooperation of the master's lady. Many proved quite capable of running the entire enterprise when deprived either temporarily or pennanently of their husbands. As the other papers in this collection have indicated, many medieval women were as competent and as determined as their twentieth century counterparts. Yet there was one essential difference. The independent legal rights of a medieval wife were nonexistent and only as a widow was a woman able to exercise some control over her property and her future. While her husband was alive the two were regarded as one being in law. For most women thi s was merely academic, but the wife of a man convicted of treason might, at worst, find herself left with little more than her life and the gown she stood up in. The full rigours of the law were usually modified, but the degree of modification often depended on the amount of influence a wife or widow could bring to bear. It was arbitrary and could never be wholly relied upon. This paper is intended to illustrate the basic weakness of a woman's position if the male members of her family were charged with treason. To salvage as much of the family property as she could, she needed to influence the king in her favour and to do that she really needed the support of a politically powerful man.

  • Over 900 Years of History – a Brief History
    Amberley Castle Over 900 Years of History in Brief Amberley Castle c1380 The land where Amberley Castle stands was gifted to Bishop Wilfrid in 683 AD by Caedwalla, King of Wessex. In the Domesday Book it was recorded Amberley had 17 villagers and 25 smallholders at this time. The land then became the property of the Bishop of Chichester. The current buildings have their origins in a timber-framed hunting lodge built by Bishop Luffa of Chichester in 1103. Bishop Luffa also had the parish church built next door. In 1140, the timber-framed building was knocked down by Bishop Seffrid I, to make way for a more elaborate stone hall. The first building here was the small hall and its Norman entrance can still be seen in reception the entrance to the Great Room. In approximately 1200, Bishop Seffrid II had the East Wing built. A larger Great Hall and other domestic improvements were added by Bishop John of Langton during his time at Chichester between 1305 and 1337. It was at this time it became known as “Bishop of Chichester’s Summer Palace”. When Bishop Reede took the throne at Chichester, he had the Great Hall knocked down and built a grander one! In 1377, Bishop Reede applied to King Richard II for permission to crenellate the grounds and add the gatehouse and Oubliette – to ward off pirates! Many believe it was more to show off! Permission was granted for this on 10th December 1377, and during 1377 and 1382 the work took place. The crenellations, battlements and a portcullis transformed it into a fortified manor house.

  • FC Series of Archives
    ARUNDEL CASTLE ARCHIVES Vol IV A CATALOGUE Edited by Francis W Steer Preface Unlike its predecessors, this fourth volume of the catalogue of the archives at Arundel Castle will have to remain in manuscript until either printing costs are reduced or a new and economical process of reproduction is invented. This situation is a matter for regret on two counts as it spoils a series of printed books which have been of assistance to scholars all over the world and it is going to make the definitive edition of the catalogue of this vast collection of archives more difficult for someone to compile in the future. This volume, so far as manuscript permits, follows the style of the other three. It contains (pp1-65) a vast accumulation of records (mainly drafts although some are of special interest and importance) which Messrs Few & Co. (solicitors to the Dukes of Norfolk since 1815) must have transferred to Norfolk House, St James‟s Square, London, over 90 years ago. The documents are in excess of 9,200 and demonstrate, in particular, the litigious character of Bernard Edward, 12th Duke of Norfolk (1765-1842) and the immense amount of work which accrued to his solicitors; they also show the policy with regard to the dispersal and/or consolidation of estates – sometimes to pay off enormous mortgages and at other times to simplify that difficult administration of what was a huge and scattered estate extending into several counties. The catalogue (1965) of the Arundel documents deposited at Sheffield City Library should not be forgotten by students concerned with properties in Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire.

  • House of Howard
    House of Howard Their History In The Western part of Norfolk, England, some five Miles from the ancient port of King’s Lunn, there stands, upon ground slightly rising above the slightly rising above the prevailing level of that neighbourhood, the little village of East Wynch. The very name of this place is eloquent of antiquity, for "Wynch" is derived from two Celtic words signifying "white water." But it is not upon its great age that the village prides itself, so much as upon the fact that it was the first known home of the illustrious family of Howard, and that the founder of that family and many of his descendants lie buried there. East Wynch, then cradle of "all the Howards" is today but a sleepy Norfolk village, clustered not unpicturesquely around its fine church of All Saints, which is a landmark for miles over the surrounding plain. The name of Howard is little known in the place to-day, and there are but few surviving traces of Howard occupation. In East Wynch church there still stands a baptismal font, bearing the arms of Howard and Bois, the gift of Sir John Howard, temp. Edward III.; and one of the church windows displays the conjoint shields of Howard and De Vere. As we shall see, it was through this latter alliance that Wynch passed out of the hands of the Howards. The remains of the manor house,^ where the Duke of Norfolk's ancestors resided, may be seen to the eastward of the village, and together with the foundations of an ancient nunnery, complete East Wynch's slender list of antiquities.
