Tudor History with Claire Ridgway

Interesting Facts About the Boleyn Family


Listen Later

Today, I have some fascinating facts to share about the Boleyn family, a family close to my heart. These tidbits might surprise you and give you a deeper insight into their intriguing history.
 
Did you know that Anne Boleyn’s father inherited a unique family heirloom? Or that her mother was praised by a famous poet? There are also some mysteries about Mary Boleyn's later years. Anne herself might have met a legendary figure during her time in France, and her brother George was celebrated for his talents. Jane Boleyn played a significant role in the lives of others, and Elizabeth I honoured her mother in some special ways.
 
If these facts have piqued your interest, I’m excited to announce an 8-day online event in November dedicated to the Boleyn family! I’ll be diving into:
 
Thomas and Elizabeth Boleyn
Anne Boleyn's rise and fall
Mary Boleyn's legacy
George Boleyn's life and work
Jane Boleyn's controversial story
Elizabeth I, the Boleyn Queen
The enduring legacy of the Boleyns
 
There will be seven talks and eight Zoom Q&A sessions, offering plenty of opportunities to discuss Tudor history. If you register before 31st July, you can join us for $65, saving $15. Head to https://claireridgway.com/events/the-boleyns-a-family-of-two-queens/ for more details and to secure your spot.
 
I can’t wait to share more about the Boleyns with you and hear your thoughts! See you there!
