Eleanor Percy, Duchess of Buckingham (ca. 1474 – 13 February, 1530), also Alianore, was a daughter of Henry Percy, 4th Earl of Northumberland by his wife Maud Herbert, herself a daughter of the first Earl of Pembroke. She married Edward Stafford, 3rd Duke of Buckingham, who was beheaded in 1521 on false charges of plotting to overthrow the king, Henry VIII. As a result, the Buckingham title and estates were forfeited, and her children lost their inheritance.
Biography
She was born about 1474 in Leconfield, Yorkshire. On 14 December, 1490, at about sixteen years of age, Eleanor married Edward Stafford, 3rd Duke of Buckingham, who was five years old when his father, the rebellious 2nd Duke of Buckingham, was attainted and executed for high treason. Edward Stafford's mother, Catherine Woodville, went on to marry the first Duke of Bedford and then to Richard Wingfield. Two years after his father's execution, when Henry VII ascended the throne, the attainder was reversed, and the title and estates of Edward's father were restored to him. At seven, Edward became the third Duke of Buckingham and also the ward of King Henry VII's mother, Lady Margaret Beaufort.
After Edward's death, Eleanor remarried to John Audley. Her second marriage was childless.
Children
Eleanor bore her husband, Edward Stafford, five children:
- Mary (b. abt. 1495), married George Nevill, 5th Baron Bergavenny.
- Elizabeth (b. abt. 1497), married Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk.
- Catherine (b. abt. 1499 – 14 May, 1555), married Ralph Neville, 4th Earl of Westmorland.
- Henry (18 September, 1501 – 30 April, 1563), 1st Baron Stafford, married Ursula Pole, daughter of Margaret Pole, 8th Countess of Salisbury.
- Margaret (b. abt. 1511 – 25 May, 1537), married firstly to William Cheney and secondly to John Bulmer.
