Ælfgifu of York
Ælfgifu of York (fl. c. 970 – 1002) was the first wife of Æthelred the Unready (r. 968–1016), by whom she bore many offspring, including Edmund Ironside.
It is most probable that she was a daughter of Thored, Earl of southern Northumbria.
Margaret of York (1472)
Margaret of York( 10 April 1472 – 11 December 1472) was a namesake niece of Margaret of York, Duchess of Burgundy.
She was the fifth child and fourth daughter of Edward IV of England and Elizabeth Woodville.
She was a younger sister of Elizabeth of York, Mary of York, Cecily of York and Edward V of England and older sister of Richard of Shrewsbury, 1st Duke of York, Anne of York, George Plantagenet, Duke of Bedford, Catherine of York and Bridget of York.
She was born in Winchester Castle but died of natural causes eight months later.
She was buried in Westminster Abbey.
Margaret's sarcophagus was originally placed to fit in the steps of the shrine of St. Edward the Confessor, but it was moved to the edge of the chapel at the time of the dissolution of the monasteries.
The step edging around the sides can, however, still be seen.
An annotated history of the Abbey in the Abbey's library states that the lid was removed in more modern times and the sarcophagus found to be empty.
The monumental brass originally on the top of Margaret's tomb is long since missing, but the original wording around the edge and on the surface plaque was recorded historically.

She was born in Eltham, London on 10 November 1480, and was baptised by Edward Story, Bishop of Chichester on 11 November 1480.
Her godmothers at the baptismal fount were her paternal grandmother, Cecily Neville, Duchess of York, and her oldest sister, Elizabeth of York.
Her godfather was William Waynflete, Bishop of Winchester.
Bridget's aunt Margaret, Lady Maltravers, served as her godmother at her confirmation.
Bridget was likely named after St. Bridget of Sweden.
Her parents may have decided at the time of her birth that this daughter would be dedicated to a religious life, and Princess Bridget was entrusted to Dartford Priory, Dartford, Kent sometime between 1486 and 1492.
She became a nun.
Bridget maintained correspondence throughout her life with her sister Elizabeth of York, who also paid for her various minor expenses, as well as minor expenses of the orphaned Agnes of Eltham.
After Bridget's sister, Elizabeth of York, married Henry VII, Elizabeth paid some of Bridget's expenses and kept in touch with her via messengers.
Bridget is known to have left Dartford on at least one occasion, when she attended the funeral of her mother, Elizabeth Woodville, in 1492.
She died about 1517.

Ælfgifu of Exeter
Ælfgifu of Exeter was an Anglo- Saxon saint, of unknown date or origin, whose relics were held by Exeter Cathedral.
She is mentioned in the Old English Exeter relic- list as" the holy servant of Christ ... who would daily perform her confession before she went into church".
It is possible that she is the 10th- century royal abbess, Ælfgifu of Shaftesbury wife of Edmund I( as one 12th- century writer believed), but it is" more likely" according to historian John Blair that she was not.
Æthelred the Unready
Æthelred II (Old English: "Æþelræd", ; 966 – 23 April 1016), known as the Unready, was King of the English from 978 to 1013 and again from 1014 until his death.
His epithet does not derive from the modern word "unready", but rather from the Old English "unræd" meaning "poorly advised"; it is a pun on his name, which means "well advised".
Æthelred was the son of King Edgar and Queen Ælfthryth.
He came to the throne at about the age of 12, following the assassination of his older half-brother, Edward the Martyr.
His brother's murder was carried out by supporters of his own claim to the throne, although he was too young to have any personal involvement.
The chief problem of Æthelred's reign was conflict with the Danes.
After several decades of relative peace, Danish raids on English territory began again in earnest in the 980s.
Following the Battle of Maldon in 991, Æthelred paid tribute, or Danegeld, to the Danish king.
In 1002, Æthelred ordered what became known as the St. Brice's Day massacre of Danish settlers.
In 1013, King Sweyn Forkbeard of Denmark invaded England, as a result of which Æthelred fled to Normandy in 1013 and was replaced by Sweyn.
However, he returned as king for two years after Sweyn's death in 1014.
Æthelred's 37-year reign was the longest of any Anglo-Saxon king of England, and was only surpassed in the 13th century, by Henry III.
Æthelred was briefly succeeded by his son, Edmund Ironside, but he died after a few months and was replaced by Sweyn's son, Cnut.
Another of Æthelred's sons, Edward the Confessor, became king in 1042.
George Plantagenet, 1st Duke of Bedford
George of York, 1st Duke of Bedford( March 1477 – March 1479) was the eighth child and third son of Edward IV of England and Elizabeth Woodville.
He was a younger brother of Elizabeth of York, Mary of York, Cecily of York, Edward V of England, Margaret Plantagenet, Richard of Shrewsbury, 1st Duke of York and Anne of York.
He was also an older brother of Catherine of York and Bridget of York.
He was born in Windsor Castle in March 1477, and was created Duke of Bedford in infancy, probably in 1478, after the former holder of the title, George Neville, was deprived of the title by act of Parliament, ostensibly for lack of money to maintain the style of a duke.
He was appointed the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland in 1478, one of a series of nominal and largely absent lieutenants.
George died aged two.
This is considered likely to have been due to an outbreak of bubonic plague.
He was buried in St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle on March 22, 1479.
Theodred II (Bishop of Elmham)
