anne boleyn

I don’t know why I’m posting a TL as I already have my hands full. I’m bored though and my little sister is egging me to do one about Anne Boleyn so I got this idea. I am going to be tackling this tl and my Katherine Howard has twins one right now so the other ones are getting once a week...

I’ve been doing some research and it looks like Thomas Boleyn was considered his grandfather’s legal heir. The Archbishop of Dublin had said Thomas Boleyn should inherit the earldom, and so had the Dublin law courts. The two daughters of Thomas Butler (Thomas Boleyn’s mother Margaret and her...

20th February 1569- Hatfield house A woman sat up in a Richly embroidered bed. She had right copper ringlets and piercing black eyes which seemed to stare disapprovingly even when the face below was smiling. She was holding a tiny baby wrapped in white and gold swaddle. The baby yawned and...

Their Majesties Queen Mary and King Jure Uxoris George in 1533 August 1528: Jane Boleyn succumbs to the sweating sickness, leaving her husband George Boleyn a widower August 1529: Thomas Boleyn, faced with the possibility of his daughter becoming Queen, decides that he wants to ensure that...

As the title says, Henry VIII and Katherine of Aragon switch dates, i.e. Henry VIII dies on January 7th 1536 while Katherine lives on until January 28th 1547. For Henry VIII this is quite simple. In January 1536 of otl he had a jousting accident that left him unconscious and many feared he would...

What if, rather than suffering injuries to his thigh after being hit with a misplaced lance and being thrown from his horse, he sustains injuries slightly to the side, leaving him infertile? I just had this thought, and it is fascinating to me. A male heir becomes an impossibility for one...

Anne stood on the scaffold, looking out at the crowd of onlookers who had gathered to witness her execution. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, and began to speak. "Good Christian people, I am come hither to die, for according to the law, and by the law I am judged to...

What if Henry VIII died for the accident during the joust in 1536?

24th January 1536: Henry's neck is broken/chest is crushed by his falling forse during his jousting accident. 25th January 1536: After lingering on for another day, Anne receives the news that he has died and in shock, miscarries their son. Upon hearing that the King is dead with no male heir...

24 January 1536: King Henry VIII avoids injury at the Greenwich Palace Tournament. Anne is still executed after her miscarriage, and the Second Succession Act declares both Mary and Elizabeth illegitimate bastards. Christmas 1536: Henry, in a bout of frustration and despair after Jane Seymour's...

A very large thank you to both @RedKing and @Cate13 who discussed my TL with me and helped me sort out how the family tree will end up. Some of the beautiful chaos going forward can definitely be attributed to some of their ideas :) TL/PoD: what if Elizabeth of York and Henry VII's children had...

So there’s a fic on ao3 where Anne suggests an annulment right before Henry is truly done with her. This leaves her mostly in Henry’s good graces (though sometimes Henry prefers Anne out of sight, out of mind) and Elizabeth as legitimate. The fic mostly focuses on Anne and Henry’s relationship...

What if Arthur Tudor survived his illness and succeeded his father as king, while his brother Henry of York would marry as his second wife Anne Boleyn, Dowager Countess of Northumberland and Dowager Countess of Ormond? And if the Tudors had the luck of the Habsburgs and eventually ended up...

There already is a thread about Elizabeth Tudor beign deformed, so how about a scenerio, where the problem is reversed - daughter of Henry VIII looks perfectly fine but can't see at all since birth? Is there a chance, that it will be considered a sign that her mother was a witch? Will Henry...

Anne, Queen of England was dead, together with her stillborn child, a boy who would be Henry’s long waited heir and the King was furious, specially as the doctors had no explanation for what happened as Anne’s pregnancy had gone smooth enough until the day before the tragedy. Some suggested who...

What if Anne Boleyn died for her 1534 miscarriage, leaving Henry VIII as widower with only a small daughter as heiress? Here Henry VIII has NOT yet tired of Anne, and she was dead while Catherine was still alive meaning who Henry need to remarry quickly for a son and Elizabeth’s legitimacy can...

September 1533: Queen Anne Boleyn gives birth to twin children, a boy and a girl. The children are christened Henry and Elizabeth in a grand ceremony in front of many of Henry VIII’s vassals. Henry VIII also announced he has negotiated an alliance with the French. This greatly pleases Queen...

Catherine of Aragon had 6 confirmed pregnancies, Anne Boleyn 4, Jane Seymour 1 and Bessie Blount had one son by Henry too. There are theories and some evidence than Jane made have had 1/2 miscarriages, and Katheryn Howard may also have suffered 1. A possible number of Henry’s children is as...

@Cate13 :) If anyone saw my post on the alternate lineage thread then this is the book that coincides with it! I've also posted it on ff. net so if anyone recognises it, don't worry, it's not plagiarised I've simply decided to post it on here as well. I hope you enjoy! The book is based on a...

7 September 1533 wasn't exactly the happiest day of Henry VIII's life, as King REALLY wanted healthy son to succed him - he married Anne Boleyn in the first place, because he hoped for a legit heir apparent. Yet he still had to wait for it, and his situation wasn't any better than before. Yet he...
