Thomas Cromwell
Thomas Cromwell, 1st Earl of Essex, (1485 – 28 July 1540) was an English lawyer and statesman who served as chief minister to King Henry VIII of England from 1532 to 1540, when he was beheaded on orders of the king.
Cromwell was one of the strongest and most powerful proponents of the English Reformation.
He helped to engineer an annulment of the king's marriage to Queen Catherine so that Henry could lawfully marry Anne Boleyn.
Henry failed to obtain the Pope's approval for the annulment in 1534, so Parliament endorsed the king's claim to be Supreme Head of the Church of England, giving him the authority to annul his own marriage.
However, Cromwell subsequently charted an evangelical and reformist course for the Church of England from the unique posts of Vicegerent in Spirituals and vicar-general.
During his rise to power, Cromwell made many enemies, including his former ally Anne Boleyn.
He played a prominent role in her downfall.
He later fell from power, after arranging the king's marriage to German princess Anne of Cleves.
Cromwell had hoped that the marriage would breathe fresh life into the Reformation in England, but Henry found his new bride unattractive and it turned into a disaster for Cromwell, ending in an annulment six months later.
Cromwell was arraigned under a bill of attainder and executed for treason and heresy on Tower Hill on 28 July 1540.
The king later expressed regret at the loss of his chief minister.

Gregory Cromwell, 1st Baron Cromwell
Gregory Cromwell, 1st Baron Cromwell, KB
(c. 1520 – 4 July 1551) was an English Peer.
He was the only son of the Tudor statesman Thomas Cromwell, 1st Earl of Essex (c. 1485 – 1540) and his wife Elizabeth Wyckes (d. 1529).
Gregory's father Thomas Cromwell rose from obscurity to become the chief minister of Henry VIII, who attempted to modernize government at the expense of the privileges of the nobility and church.
He used his office to promote religious reform and was one of the strongest advocates of the English Reformation.
In 1537, Gregory married Elizabeth, Lady Ughtred, widow of Sir Anthony Ughtred, sister to Jane Seymour and therefore became brother-in-law to Henry VIII and uncle to Edward VI.
Gregory survived the dramatic fall from royal favour and subsequent execution of his father in 1540, as well as the ousting of his brother-in-law and patron, Edward Seymour in 1549.
He became a wealthy landowner, owning land and property in several counties in England, mainly in Rutland and Leicestershire.
Gregory's family connections had provided him with wealth, property and privileges; however, it was through his own intelligence and ability, combined with the remarkable education and training provided by his father, that he was able to benefit from them, leaving his wife and family
well provided for at his death.
Gregory was succeeded by his eldest son, and heir, Henry.
Gregory Cromwell died in July 1551, the same month as Henry Brandon, the young Duke of Suffolk and his brother Charles.
He may be the subject of two portrait miniatures by Hans Holbein the Younger.

Henry Cromwell, 2nd Baron Cromwell
(before 1 March 1538 – 20 November 1592) was an English peer.
He was the eldest son of Gregory Cromwell, 1st Baron Cromwell and Elizabeth Seymour, daughter to John Seymour of Wolf Hall, Wiltshire, and to Margery Wentworth.
His mother's siblings included Jane Seymour, third consort of Henry VIII and the Protector Somerset.
Elizabeth Seymour, Lady Cromwell
Elizabeth Seymour( c. 1518 – 19 March 1568) was the daughter of Sir John Seymour of Wulfhall, Wiltshire and Margery Wentworth.
Elizabeth and her sister Jane Seymour served in the household of Anne Boleyn, the second wife of Henry VIII.
In his quest for a male heir, the king had divorced his first wife, Catherine of Aragon, whose only surviving child was a daughter, Mary.
His marriage to Anne Boleyn had also resulted in a single daughter, Elizabeth.
The queen's miscarriage of a son in January 1536 sealed her fate.
The king, convinced that Anne could never give him male children, increasingly infatuated with Jane Seymour, and encouraged by the queen's enemies, was determined to replace her.
The Seymours rose to prominence after the king's attention turned to Jane.
In May 1536, Anne Boleyn was accused of treason and adultery with Mark Smeaton, a court musician, the courtiers Henry Norris, Sir Francis Weston, William Brereton and her brother, George Boleyn, Viscount Rochford.
The trials and executions of the queen and her co-accused followed swiftly, and on 30 May 1536, eleven days after Anne's execution, Henry VIII and Jane were married.
Elizabeth was not included in her sister's household during her brief reign, although she would serve two of Henry VIII's later wives, Anne of Cleves and Catherine Howard.
Jane died 24 October 1537, twelve days after giving birth to a healthy son, Edward VI.
Elizabeth lived under four Tudor monarchs and was married three times.
By July 1530 she had married Sir Anthony Ughtred, Governor of Jersey, who died in 1534.
She then married Gregory Cromwell, 1st Baron Cromwell, the son of Thomas Cromwell, chief minister to Henry VIII in 1537, who died in 1551.
She married her third and last husband, Sir John Paulet, later Lord St. John, the son of William Paulet, 1st Marquess of Winchester in 1554.
