Descendents

[edit]

The Mary Queen of Scots and Henry IV links are highlighted, but the Elizabeth Woodville link also brings in most of the Tudor dynasty of England through Woodville's daughter Elizabeth of York the wife of Henry VII of England. This includes Henry VIII (and his children Edward VI, Mary I and Elizabeth I), Margaret Tudor the queen consort of Scotland (and her descendants James V and Mary Queen of Scots again) and Mary Tudor which leads to Lady Jane Grey. Don't know how to work that into the article though. DavidRF (talk) 18:00, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One could say that all of the English monarches after 1509 descended from Margaret de Baux. How does that sound?--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 18:03, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I added it. How does the article look now?--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 18:08, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Sure. No worries. Some of these articles emphasize people's descendants and some don't. This one seemed like it was trying to, but was missing a significant group of them. I guess with Henry IV, its obvious that he leads to all the French kings that follow him, but with Woodville and all of the dynasty changes in England, its a bit less obvious. Thanks.

Yes, I felt that seeing as most people know Elizabeth Woodville was the ancestor of all the English monarchs after 1509, it was redundant to mention it, but as you rightly pointed out, it appeared to be an oversight, so thank you for drawing my attention to it.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 19:48, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
