Tudor Notes with Sylvia Barbara Soberton

Did you know, that Mary Boleyn's descendants kept Anne Boleyn's memory alive?

One of the most striking examples of this is a portrait of Philadelphia Carey, Mary’s great-granddaughter, shown holding a comb believed to have belonged to Anne.

But that’s not the only example. In my research, I’ve uncovered further hints—including a reference to Anne in a Carey family document (the Careys being descended from Mary’s children with William Carey).

If that sparks your curiosity, I explore these connections in "Mary Boleyn: The Queen’s Slandered Sister", out 7 may.you can pre-order here:
