Jane Seymour
Born in 1509, died at the 24th of October 1537 in Hampton Court Palace. She was the third wife of Henry VIII and mother of Edward VI. Although Henry VIII married six women, Jane Seymour was the only one who really fulfilled his wishes: giving birth to a male heir. Yet she never became Queen and died twelve days after she gave birth to her only son.
Jane Seymour was the daughter and fifth child of Sir John Seymour of Wolf Hall in Wiltshire († 1536) and Margaret Wentworths († 1550). Her father served the Tournai campaign of 1513 and conveyed Henry VIII to the Field of the Cloth of Gold in 1520. He was made a knight of the body and later a gentleman of the king's bedchamber. These honorific positions at court made it possible to not only talk to the king in private but also have appointments with Henry VIII and his family at the court. Three of his eight children gained honour and prominence throughout history: His eldest son Edward as Duke of Somerset and as Lord Protector (during the minority of Edward VI), his son Thomas as Lord Admiral, and his daughter Jane by marrying Henry VIII of England.
