**SPOILER ALERT**

If you want to keep the mystery of the delivery of a basket of Roses for Anne Boleyn o Saint Peter Ad Vincula don't read.

but if you do, have a read of this…

If it was not this, then it would be something else?

I think there is a slight inaccuracy in that article.

In that it talks of Anne's 'descendants'?!

Bella, perhaps the article means descendants of Anne's family (the Carey children, etc.) But maybe we should look into that!

Correct Boleynfan … I believe it would be a decendent of her family not her of course.  This could mean the Carey family or it could mean decendents from her Aunts or Uncles.

Sorry, I got a bit confused when it said Anne’s descendants – ‘course it must mean descendants of her relatives! *smacks head*

Wreckmaster – there was a story of an older man who tried for ages to get Anne’s name cleared but it came to nothing.  I think he may have been in the army or something, and I’m not sure but Claire may have a post about it somewhere.  I know I read about it somewhere!

Yes that is true, an ex RAF guy I think he fought in the war and tried in 2005 to get an official pardon and her remains exhumed to be placed in a proper crypt. The home office turned around and said that after all this time there was not enough evidence to warrent re opening the case.

 

In my opinion I think there is more than enough evidence to have her case looked at, even 500 years later!! It wont bring Anne back but it will give her some dignity back from those who dont know the truth.


 

Interesting, I didn’t know someone tried to have her name cleared!  I am going to look that up for the heck of it.  What I find funny is that the UK Royal Government site in their history section says Anne is innocent … so why won’t they do more about it, ya know?!
