OK, so this trivia is not exactly "Tudor" as it concerns Anne Mowbray, bride of Richard, Duke of York, the younger of the Princes in the Tower, but Teasel found Anne's story fascinating and so wanted to share.
It's a timely talk as today is the anniversary of the discovery of Anne Mowbray's remains in 1964 and yesterday was the anniversary of her birth. We do hope you find our little talk on this young duchess and princess interesting.
