Anne Boleyn was born sometime between 1501 and 1507 in England, the daughter of Thomas Boleyn, First Earl of Wiltshire, and Lady Elizabeth Howard.  Her relationship with England's King Henry VIII helped lead him to break with the Catholic Church and divorce his first wife, Catherine of Aragon. In 1533, when Anne was six months pregnant with the future Elizabeth I, she and Henry were married. Elizabeth's birth was followed by three miscarriages. Already courting his soon-to-be third wife, Henry had Anne imprisoned in the Tower of London on charges of treason (the details of which included accusations of incest with her own brother). On May 19, 1536, Anne Boleyn was beheaded. Click here to enlarge.
