Welcome to The Dudley Women.
 

An online resource, bringing together information from a variety of source materials, regarding the extraordinary women who married into the infamous Dudley family in the 16th century -

ELIZABETH GREY, JANE GUILDFORD, ELIZABETH TAILBOYS, JANE GREY, AMY ROBSART, MARGARET AUDLEY, DOUGLAS HOWARD, LETTICE KNOLLYS, ANNE SEYMOUR and ANNE RUSSELL - and their respective families. 

Information will be provided regarding the locations important to these historical figures, in addition to signposting to a multitude of other resources, including books, podcasts, and websites.

I will also aim to update 'The Dudley Women' blog regularly, which will aim to provide additional information related these important women and their families, some of whom were witness to, involved in or central to some of the most significant historical events of the 16th and early 17th centuries. By taking a different perspective than perhaps traditionally approached, these women and their family members subsequently take centre stage at the retelling of some of the most pivotal moments of the Tudor era. 

Thank you for taking the time to visit this page, and please follow 'The Dudley Women' on social media for more content - you can find links if you scroll down.
