The first is Duke of Cornwall Henry, born in 15 1 1. He only lived for 52 days before he died. For the Tudor family, his death was sudden and unexplained. He was strong to the death. A grand funeral was held for the baby, which was buried in the north of Westminster Abbey, near the entrance of Edward the Confessor's Temple. However, no grave or monument was built on his grave. It is said that his small lead coffin was found in Victorian renovation.
The second is Henry FitzRoy, born in 15 19, the son of Bessie Blunt. Fitzroy died in July 1536. People think that he died suddenly after Chapuys, but the hasty and hasty nature of his funeral led some scholars to think that his servants thought that he died of sweat or other infectious diseases, which made them not want to touch the body. He hasn't been embalmed or wrapped in lead as traditional. It is said that his coffin was temporarily buried in the barn until it was transported to the church by a hay truck for burial. He was originally buried in Setford Abbey, but the king dissolved the monastery and his body was transferred to Linham in Fromm.
Scholars believe that the tomb we saw on his tomb today is composed of fragments of other monuments-fitzroy's original tomb was either destroyed when Setford disintegrated or damaged during transportation. He was buried with his wife Mary Howard. The Victorian who always makes people feel creepy opened his grave and found her lead coffin inside, next to a skeleton wrapped in cloth.
The third son is Edward VI of England of England. After Edward's death, a Protestant funeral was held, and his sister Mary I held a private mass in her chapel. Edward was buried in the white marble tomb of the Church of Our Lady built by his grandfather henry vii, not far from the altar. The altar was obviously used as his tomb, and a plaque commemorating him was posted on one side of the altar.
However, the altar was destroyed during the Commonwealth period, and Edward's grave was unmarked for centuries. It was not until Dean Stanley began to investigate the tomb of the monastery that the exact location was determined. After he found the small grave-the coffin was still stuffed inside-Stanley set up a new holy table above the grave and carved the following words on it:
Let the whole world mourn their death. Because Edward is dead, the glory is gone.
He is the hope of good people, the most brilliant flower of youth, the joy of the times and the pride of supreme power;
Apollo and Minerva felt sorry for him, and their hopes were finally dashed. When the last gold coin, nine crying gold coins,
Moore Beaumont sobbed. I met you and ran to the underworld.
This sacred table was laid by Arthur Peng Lin Stanley, the dean of Westminster Abbey, in a gentler era 1870. It replaced the ancient altar destroyed in the Civil War to commemorate the buried English Edward VI of England.
It was not until 1966 that a small black stone appeared on the tombstone as the burial place of the last king of Tudor dynasty. Now, a rebuilt altar stands in front of it, looking like the one that was lost a long time ago.
