I've been looking but I can't find anything that happened on 26 September
Your Tudor events:
1528 – George Boleyn appointed Esquire of the Body.
1546 – Miles Coverdale’s works, including his translation of the Bible, were publicly burnt at Paul’s Cross, having been condemned in a proclamation in July of the same year. The destruction was overseen by Edmund Bonner, bishop of London.
1571 – Henry Fitzalan, 12th earl of Arundel, was placed under house arrest for his alleged involvement in the Ridolfi plot. He remained in custody till the end of 1572 and returned to the Privy Council the year after that.
1580 – Sir Francis Drake and the Pelican arrived in Plymouth after a nearly three year voyage. One of his first acts back was to send a message to Elizabeth I alerting her of his success. Most of his treasure pillaged from Spanish ships was placed in a tower near Plymouth, though gold and silver was also sent to London.

Nothing for my birthday: October 31st. But it is celebrated every year.
For 31 Oct:
1494 – Prince Henry (future Henry VIII) is created duke of York.
1537 – Lord Thomas Howard, Anne Boleyn’s uncle, died in the Tower following a sudden illness. He had been sent there in July after his clandestine relationship with Henry VIII’s niece, Lady Margaret Douglas, was brought to the attention of the King. He had been condemned to death in a bill of attainder passed in July.
1557 – Judge, speaker of the House of Commons and master of the rolls, Sir Nicholas Hare, died in London. He was one of Mary I’s most trusted advisors.
1558 – Mary I appointed Sir John Mason as treasurer of the privy chamber
1601 –Jesuit Dominic Collins was hanged, drawn and quartered at Youghal, Ireland. He was beatified in 1992.

I came up with a big fat nothing, too, Artemis. Mine's January 8th, and the closest is Katharine of Aragon dying on January 7th. In my lifetime, I share(d) a birthday with David Bowie and Elvis Presley! And no, I can't sing.
8 January:
1536 – News reaches the court at Greenwich of the death of Katherine of Aragon. Henry VIII attends a commemorative mass (though to him, probably an occasion to offer his thanks to the Almighty).
1543 – James V of Scotland was buried in Holyrood Abbey, Edinburgh.
1561 – Elizabeth I issues a licence to John Bodley granting him sole rights of publishing and importing the Bible for the period of seven years.
1571 – Mary Shelton, cousin of Anne Boleyn and a contributor of the ‘Devonshire Manuscript’, was buried in Heveningham church, Suffolk.
And though wikipedia has the date '6 January', most other sources, including the Oxford DNB, state that on the 8 Jan 1570, Henry Clifford, second earl of Cumberland died. A traditionalist in religion, Clifford was accused of sympathising with the rebels of the 1569 northern uprising. He had been married to Henry VIII’s niece, Eleanor Brandon (daughter of Mary Tudor and Charles Brandon, duke of Suffolk, and thus the aunt of Lady Jane Grey).

My birthday is August 28th and the only thing close to Tudor history is Ferdinand II becomes Holy Roman Emperor in 1619. Hahaha not very good.
My mothers birthday is Feb 8th which is the day Mary,Queen of Scots was executed. My sister's birthday is June 23rd which is when Henry VIII and Francois I sign a secret treaty against Charles V. My younger brother shares the birthday of Isabella of Burgundy, wife of Christian of Denmark on July 18th. So that's kinda cool, not really but still.
• Grumble all you like, this is how it’s going to be.
