These pages are not meant to be scholarly or all-inclusive. They are set up to help identify women of the sixteenth century and the information has been accumulated primarily from a footnote here and a paragraph there in the histories and biographies dealing with better known people and events. I have also consulted online genealogies and the online Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. Entries are arranged alphabetically by the maiden name of the subject. These are cross referenced by most married surnames and some titles. To find a subject by her husband's title, consult the list of Titles Used in Tudor Times. I update and make additions to existing entries regularly, so please visit often to see what's new. To reach the section you are looking for, click on the appropriate button.
