My ancestor...Hi Conor, I enjoyed reading your book. My ancestor is Thomas Dereham (brother of Francis Dereham) and I have long been interested in this story after I made the connection. Your book doesn't mention that Thomas (not sure if this was brother Thomas or father Thomas) was also brought to the Tower for interrogation and but later released. It is also noted that Dereham Abbey (previously granted to Thomas on dissolution of the Monasteries) was not forfeited by the family. Did you come across any additional references to the Dereham's during your research that you could point me to? Do you know how Dereham and Katherine were related? Also Francis was knighted at some point. I have theorized this was in relation to his tour of Ireland so soon after the rebellion in 1536. Did you come across anything referencing this?<br /><br />Marina Garrison<br />(11th grand niece of Francis Dereham)Marina Garrisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07169036794227305880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203604655093315663.post-9448136195589946522014-09-04T07:46:19.617-07:002014-09-04T07:46:19.617-07:00My article on Katherine Howard is at http://www.cr...My article on Katherine Howard is at http://www.crimelibrary.com/blog/2014/02/04/queen-katherine-howard-in-her-defense/index.html<br /><br />How close do you think my conclusions are to yours?<br />Thanks.<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />Denise NoeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
