++Henry VII (called Henry of Richmond and Henry | H
of Lancaster): by his marriage with Elizabeth | 56. Victoria,
of York, the rival claims of the houses of | 1837-1901
Lancaster and York were settled and the house of| H
Tudor began. | 57. Edward VII,
& Mary Queen of Scots stood next in order of | 1901-1910
succession after Mary (No. 43), provided Henry |_________ H
VIII's marriage with Catharine, or his marriage with | 58. George V,
Catharine of Aragon (Mary's mother) was not held to have | 1910-
been dissolved. The Pope never recognized Henry's |
divorce from Catharine, or his marriage with Anne Boleyn,|
and therefore supported Mary Queen of Scots in her claim |
to the English crown after Mary's (43) death in 1558. |
** Richard III (No. 39) married Anne Neville, widow (?) |
of Edward, Prince of Wales (son of Henry VI), slain at |
