Lady Jane Grey

Jane Seymour (c1504-09 - 1537), the third wife of Henry VIII (1491 - 1547) died, probably of puerpural fever, some days after giving birth to their son, Edward (later Edward VI), on 24 October 1537.

Before Henry died, he asked to be interred with Jane Seymour in St. George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, England.

No, Lady Jane Grey was a Protestant. The only reason she became queen was because Edward VI didn't want his Catholic sister, Mary to become queen. Edward was actually given medicine to stay alive just long enough for Edward to choose Lady Jane Grey as the next queen.

No, Lady Jane Grey did not deserve to die. She did not even want to become queen in the first place. She was somewhat forced by John Dudley. Mary Tudor was the rightful heir, but Dudley had King Edward VI change the will right before Edward died. The will stated that Edward's sister, Mary, was the next in line of succesion, but Edward was convinced to change it. When Mary rallied and defeated Jane's supporters, Mary was pronounced queen. Jane, as well as her husband Guilford Dudley, (his father is John, and John set up the marrriage between the two) were charged for high treason. She and her husband were both executed by beheading on February 12, 1554.

Protestantism (a branch of Christianity) unless you mean literally and the answer to that is there is no religion that mentions her in its writings and upholds her

She was his great-grandaughter. Yes that is true, yet this might help even more! Henry VIII had a younger sister named Princess Mary (NOT BLOODY MARRY). Princess Marry had a daughter named Frances Brandon. Frances Brandon is Lady Jane Grey's mother. So Lady Jane Grey's Great Grandfather or might me Great Grand Uncle is Henry VIII.

She had two younger sisters: Catherine Grey and Mary Grey.

Since they both still had a claim to the throne, Elizabeth I was very displeased when both of them married without consent and had them locked up for a time.

Edward IV who was coming close to his death had chosen Lady Jane Grey as queen, because people were desperate to prevent edward's half-sister Mary from becoming queen. people had persuaded edward to declare Mary aswell as his other half-sister Elizabeth illigitement to the throne. So Edward IV had chosen Lady Jane Grey next in line to the throne.

Edward VI didn't want his elder sister Mary to become Queen, because she was a Catholic and so eliminated her and Elizabeth from the line of succession. Lady Jane Grey became Queen but was over throne by Mary and was executed.

she posed a potential threat to Queen Mary I reign. Even though Lady Jane Grey never desired the crown while she was alive there would always be the danger of a rebellion raising up in her name. It was not an easy thing for Mary to do but she had to do what was best for the kingdom.

Jane was completely innocent..."bloody" Mary was so worried she was a threat that she had to kill her.

She was executed because of high treason... this is because she was queen when the true next in line was Queen Mary although Lady Jane was basically forced to take the crown by John Dudley and her parents. Queen Mary and Lady Jane actually had a good relationship and Queen Mary in the beginning refused to let her be executed it was the rebellious act of Lady Jane's father that made Queen Mary's advisers realize Lady Jane was too much of liability.

Lady Jane Grey was pushed forward onto the throne in an attempt to maintain the Protestant faith. Mary gained the throne in 1553 with the country much divided on issues of religion. Lady Jane Grey was found guilty of high treason November 13, 1553. There was speculation that her life would be spared but there was a Protestant rebellion lead by Thomas Wyatt the younger in January 1554. With Mary still feeling vulnerable her fate was sealed. She was executed February 12, 1554.

Mary did not like the fact that she was overlooked for Queen and started an uprising to become Queen shortly afterward.

Mary demanded that Jane wuld renounce her title, and Jane was happy to do so.

Lady Jane was the great-granddaughter of Henry VII, so she was a cousin of Edward VI. When he was dieing he was persuaded to proclaim Lady Jane Grey as heir to the throne instead of his sister Mary (a Catholic) or illegitimate Elizabeth

no she didn't because she was Queen for 9 days and then executed

Guilford Dudley was approximately 19 years old when he married Lady Jane Grey in May 1553. Their marriage was arranged as part of a political alliance, and it occurred shortly before Jane was proclaimed queen of England.

She was Queen for 9 days because her sister killed her. But she did not mean to.

Her family home was Bradgate Manor in Leicestershire England.

his father

Lady Jane Grey, (1537 - 1554) was the daughter of Henry Grey, the Marquess of Dorset and Lady Frances Brandon. Lady Frances was a great-granddaughter of Henry VII, the first Tudor king, and Jane's grandparents were the Princess Mary Rose, younger sister of Henry VIII (1491 - 1547) and Charles Brandon, Duke of Suffolk. When she was about 10, Jane became part of the household of Katherine Parr, Henry VIII's sixth and last wife.

Henry Grey, Jane's father, was created Duke of Suffolk in 1551. At court, John Dudley, the Duke of Northumberland, who was a staunch Protestant, held great power and was acting as regent to the young Edward VI. Jane Grey was married to Guildford Dudley, Northumberland's son, in May 1553.

Edward VI was not physically very strong, and began to get weak after suffering various illnesses. Northumberland was concerned that the crown would pass to Mary, Edward's older sister and true heir, who was Roman Catholic. He managed to persuade the dying Edward, who was also staunchly Protestant, to name Lady Jane Grey as his successor, and to pronounce Mary and their other sister, Elizabeth, illegitimate. Edward died on 6 July 1553, and four days later, Lady Jane was proclaimed queen.

Meanwhile, Mary began to gain much support from those who were uneasy that the true successor had been excluded, and within days, Jane's reign faded away, with even her father proclaiming Mary as true queen and easily persuading Jane to give up the crown. Jane had been only the "nine days queen".

Lady Jane and her husband Guildford Dudley, were imprisoned by Mary I, and tried for treason in November 1553, and sentenced to death. The Duke of Northumberland had previously been tried and found guilty and executed on 22 August 1553. Lady Jane's father, Suffolk, was pardoned, but implicated in a later plot with Sir Thomas Wyatt in February 1554, and sentenced to death for that treason. on 12 February 1554, Lady Jane and her husband were executed. The Duke of Suffolk, Jane's father, was executed two days later.

Mary I had taken her rightful position as heir to the throne.

yes she did, after a rebellion, mary became cruel and ordered her execution.

Lady Jane Grey, who reigned for just nine days in July 1553, did not have the opportunity to make significant orders or implement policies as queen. Her reign was largely a result of political maneuvering, and she was quickly deposed in favor of Mary I. During her brief time in power, she primarily focused on maintaining her position rather than enacting any substantial governance. Ultimately, her reign was cut short, and she was executed in 1554.

The Execution of Lady Jane Grey was created in 1833.

Jane Grey had no children. The poor soul was married to Guildford Dudley and shortly after their marriage they were both executed on the block.

Lady Jane Grey was 15 when she became Queen of England.

If you mean did she work for a living then the answer is no

Few if any women in 16th century Britain had any kind of "job" other than wives and mothers.

Lady Jane Grey was an English Noblewomen executed after only 9 days on the throne of England at the age of only 16 or 17.

It was noted that Jane acted as chief mourner at Catherine Parr's funeral
