June 29 - Lady Margaret Beaufort

Today is the anniversary of the death of sixty-six-year-old Lady Margaret Beaufort on 29th June 1509, just four days after she enjoyed the coronation celebrations of her grandson King Henry VIII and his queen consort. Catherine of Aragon.

In today's video, Claire Ridgway, founder of the Tudor Society, fleshes out Margaret Beaufort with a few facts about her and her life.
