Notes for Duke Richard OF YORK
One of the “Princes in the Tower.”
1 Disappeared 1483.
333 Made Duke of York when he was nine months old. Also became Earl Marshal of England and Lietenant of Ireland. Made a Knight of the Garter on his seventh birthday.
333Taken to the Tower from sanctuary at Westminster on 16 June 1483. Elizabeth, his mother, seems to have agreed to give him up. Less than a week later he was removed from the royal line on the grounds that his father had been pre-contracted to marry another woman before Elizabeth and therefore his children were bastards.
