Margaret Beaufort is considered the matriarch of the Tudor Dynasty. She gave birth to Henry VIl at Pembroke Castle on the 28th of January, 1457 when she was just barely a teenager. Just a few months before Margaret turned 10, She was required to formally agree to the marriage of Edmond Tudor and at 12 the two were wed. Edmund was 24. Canon law allowed for a marriage to be consummated when a female was 12 and a male was 14. Edmund and Margaret would only be married for a year before Edmond died, leaving Margaret bath a widow and pregnant. After her husband’s death Margaret was put in the custody of her brother-in-law, Jasper Tudor and taken to Pembroke Castle where she gave birth to her only child Henry. The birth was incredibly difficult because of both Margaret’s age and size. Margaret would marry two more times.... And Henry would become King of England and begin the Tudor dynasty.
