Notables
James was the 9th great grandson of Lady Mary Boleyn, one of the mistresses of King Henry VIII. It has been rumored that Mary Boleyn bore two of the king's children.
Her sister: Lady Mary Boleyn, was the sister of Anne Boleyn, Queen of England, the second of the six wives of Henry VIII King of England. Their daughter was Queen Elizabeth I of England. Anne Boleyn was beheaded at the Tower of London.
Thus, Lady Mary Boleyn was also the aunt of Queen Elizabeth I of England.
