Margery Wentworth, also known as Margaret Wentworth, and as both Lady Seymour[1] and Dame Margery Seymour[2] (c. 1478{{sfn|Pollard|1897|pp=299–310}} – 18 October 1550{{sfn|Seymour|1972|p=340}}). She was the wife of Sir John Seymour and the mother of Queen Jane Seymour, the third wife of King Henry VIII of England. She was the grandmother of King Edward VI of England.

Family

Margery was born in about 1478, the daughter of Sir Henry Wentworth and Anne Say, daughter of Sir John Say and Elizabeth Cheney.{{sfn|Pollard|1897|pp=299–310}}{{sfn|Norton|2009|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=FiXjKTkR0QYC&pg=PA9#v=onepage&q&f=false 9]}}

Margery's first cousins, courtiers Elizabeth and Edmund Howard, were parents to an earlier and later royal wife than her daughter: Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard, respectively.{{sfn|Norton|2009|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=FiXjKTkR0QYC&pg=PA8#v=onepage&q&f=false 8–9]}}{{sfn|Hart|2010|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=uBo7AwAAQBAJ&pg=142#v=snippet&q=Edmund%20Howard&f=false 142]}}

Elizabeth Cheney's first husband was Frederick Tilney, father of Elizabeth Tilney, Countess of Surrey.{{sfn|Norton|2009|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=FiXjKTkR0QYC&pg=PA9#v=onepage&q&f=false 9]}} This made Anne Say although not of peerage-level nobility herself, the half-sister of a countess.{{sfn|Tucker|1969|pp=333–345}} Wentworth was also a descendant of King Edward III, this remote royal ancestry is partly why Henry VIII found Jane Seymour (her daughter) marriageable.{{sfn|Norton|2009|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=FiXjKTkR0QYC&pg=PA8#v=onepage&q&f=false 8]}}

Margery's father, Henry Wentworth, rose to be a critical component of Yorkshire and Suffolk politics: in 1489, during the Yorkshire uprising against Henry VII who had championed unity and married the female main claimant heir of increasingly irrelevant, dying dynasty, he left his home and was named the steward of Knaresborough, earning him the privilege to keep the peace in the name of the first Earl of Surrey. After this, he was awarded the title of the Sheriff of Yorkshire.{{sfn|Tucker|1969|pp=333–345}}

Early life

She was given a place in the household of her aunt, the Countess of Surrey, where she met the poet John Skelton, whose muse she became.{{sfn|Norton|2009|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=FiXjKTkR0QYC&pg=PA9#v=onepage&q&f=false 9]}} She was considered a great beauty by Skelton and others. In poetry dedicated to her he praised her demeanor. Skelton's poem, Garland of Laurel, in which ten women in addition to the Countess weave a crown of laurel for Skelton himself, portrays Margery as a shy, kind girl, and compares her to primrose and columbine. The other nine women from the poem are: Elizabeth Howard, Muriel Howard, Lady Anne Dacre of the South, Margaret Tynley, Jane Blenner-Haiset, Isabel Pennell, Margaret Hussey, Gertrude Statham, and Isabel Knyght.{{sfn|Tucker|1969|pp=333–345}}

Marriage and children

On October 22, 1494, Margery married Sir John Seymour (1476 – 21 December 1536){{sfn|Aubrey|1862|p=375–376|ps=:"This Knight departed this Lyfe at LX years of age, the XXI day of December, Anno 1536 ..."}} of Wulfhall, Savernake Forest, Wiltshire.{{sfn|Norton|2009|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=FiXjKTkR0QYC&pg=PA11#v=onepage&q&f=false 11]}} On the same day, her father Henry remarried Lady Elizabeth Scrope.{{sfn|Tucker|1969|pp=333–345}}

Margery and her husband had ten children together:{{sfn|Norton|2009|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=FiXjKTkR0QYC&pg=PA11#v=onepage&q&f=false 11]}}{{sfn|Seymour|1972|p=26}}

Notably, her eldest daughter, Jane, was not schooled in a formal setting; Margery instead had her disciplined in more traditional roles that she deemed suitable.{{sfn|Norton|2009|p=[https://books.google.com/books?id=FiXjKTkR0QYC&pg=PA12#v=onepage&q&f=false 12–13]}}
