[edit] Relationship to Anne Boleyn and Elizabeth I
"Margaret's mother, Elizabeth, married Thomas Howard, 2nd Duke of Norfolk after the death of her first husband, and became the Duchess of Norfolk. She and Howard had nine children, including Lady Elizabeth Howard, mother of Anne Boleyn, the future queen of England. Consequently, Margaret's mother was the great-grandmother of Queen Elizabeth I, making Margaret a somewhat distant cousin."
Just to clarify, wouldn't that make Margaret half-sister to Anne Boleyn's mother, and therefore half-aunt to Anne Boleyn and half-great-aunt to Elizabeth I rather than a distant cousin?
Yes. They may also have been cousins through a different line but your explanation is correct. Boleyn (talk) 16:58, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
