parasitic?

is it really okay to refer to the Woodvilles as "parasitic" ?18.173.1.125 (talk) 19:12, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Worked in a London cook shop

The article doesn't mention this popular theory that Richard found Anne hiding in a London cook shop where she was employed as a servant. Whether it's true or not it should be mentioned.jeanne (talk) 15:11, 16 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have since added it.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 17:09, 17 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

citation?

What is the citation for the date and place of Anne's marriage to Richard, Duke of Gloucester? I have been unable to find that information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chuckw-nj (talk • contribs) 08:18, 21 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Died at Westminster

The box implies that she died in Westminster Abbey. Is this in the historical record? Torontonian1 (talk) 14:20, 23 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Someone had created a false link - I've fixed it now. Thanks for pointing it out. Deb (talk) 12:32, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am sure this is wrong

The article (as of 30 Mar 2011) states: QUOTE: At fourteen, Anne was betrothed by her father to Richard (later Richard III of England) brother of Edward, Prince of Wales, heir to Henry VI of England. UNQUOTE

The sentence is mixing up two different Edwards. One of these Edwards is Edward of Westminster, Prince of Wales (Lancaster/red-rose in the Wars of the Roses), heir apparent to King Henry VI (also Lancaster/red-rose). THIS Edward died before his father Henry VI and so never made it to the throne. THIS Edward was NOT the brother of the future Richard III (a Yorkist/white-rose). THIS Edward was not the brother of any male, being Henry VI's only son. The DIFFERENT Edward being mixed up in this sentence is Edward, Duke of York (York/white-rose), son of Richard, 3rd Duke of York (also York/white-rose). THIS Edward, (the Duke of York and later King Edward IV), was never Prince of Wales. Also, is it really true that when 14 she was betrothed to the white-rosed future Richard III, when it was also while she was 14 that she was betrothed to the red-rosed Prince of Wales?69.86.131.64 (talk) 07:22, 31 March 2011 (UTC)Christopher L.
