Marriage

BEF 15 FEB 1404 [2]

Death and burial

(Royal Ancestry & Royal Tombs of Medieval England) Thomas Beaufort's wife Margaret, probably died before 29 April 1424. She was buried with her husband Thomas Beaufort in the Lady Chapel of the Benedictine abbey at Bury St. Edmonds, Suffolk. Thomas Beaufort's will gave instructions for his burial on the north side of the Lady altar and bequeathed funds for a free-standing monument for himself and wife, together with an exceptional amount of 400 marks for perpetual anniversary masses. The Lady Chapel was demolished with the rest of the church following the surrender of the abbey in 1538 during Henry VIII's Dissolution of the Monasteries.
