historicwomendaily:“For more than a century the vengeful hand of the English crown had frequently lain heavy on the Howards. Their colossal pride, egotism, ambition, or loyalty to their faith, had cost them dear. Two Dukes of Norfolk had been attainted as traitors and spent lonely years confined in the Tower of London. Another had been beheaded. An heir to the dukedom had been executed on trumped-up charges and one more had died piteously in prison. Two nieces had also been beheaded. Other members of the family had been frequently incarcerated on suspicion of infidelity to the throne. With the exception of Mary I, as far as the Tudor monarchy was concerned the Howards were very much a house of treason.”— Robert Hutchinson, House of Treason: The Rise and Fall of a Tudor Dynastyprominent members of the house of howard -- source link
