Henry Brandon, 1st Earl of Lincoln (ca. 1523 – 1 March 1534 Southwark〔() „Yesterday morning died the earl of Lincoln...“ Letter, dated 2 March 1534, William Lord Dacre to Lady Dacre In: 'Henry VIII: March 1534, 1-5', ''Letters and Papers, Foreign and Domestic, Henry VIII, Volume 7: 1534'' (1883)〕) was the youngest child and second son〔Brandon family tree In: Starkey, David (Hg): ''Rivals in Power: Lives and Letters of the Great Tudor Dynasties'' Macmillan, London 1990, p. 39〕 born to Charles Brandon, 1st Duke of Suffolk and Mary Tudor, Queen of France, who was a daughter of Henry VII of England. Thus Henry Brandon was nephew to Henry VIII of England. His older sisters were Lady Frances Brandon and Lady Eleanor Brandon.〔(Burke's Peerage )〕 He and his older brother (1516-1522〔Perry, Maria: ''The Sisters of Henry VIII: The Tumultuous Lives of Margaret of Scotland and Mary of France'', Da Capo Press Edition, 2000, p. 154.〕) are often mistakenly thought to be the same person, because both died as children and bore the same name. It was not unusual in Tudor times to name a child after a deceased sibling. His paternal grandparents were Sir William Brandon and Elizabeth Bruyn. His maternal grandparents were Henry VII of England and his queen consort Elizabeth of York. His maternal uncles were Arthur, Prince of Wales, Henry VIII of England and Edmund Tudor, Duke of Somerset. His maternal aunts were Margaret, queen consort of Scotland, Elizabeth Tudor and Katherine Tudor. == Earl of Lincoln == Brandon was created Earl of Lincoln by Henry VIII on 18 June 1525 at the age of only two.〔() "...the lorde Henry Brandon, sonne to the duke of Suffolke and the Frenche Quene the kynges sister, a childe of twoo yere old, was greated Erle of Lincolne..."

His father planned a marriage for him with Catherine Willoughby, a peeress in her own right and daughter of Maria de Salinas, who had been one of the queen's ladies-in-waiting.〔(Grimsthorpe estate )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Henry Brandon, 1st Earl of Lincoln」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
