<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sylvester, post: 74306, member: 708&quot;]Henry VI certainly had little to be happy about! He was overthrown by Edward IV in 1461 and he fled for his life. His wife won him back the throne in 1470 and the following year he was deposed again by Edward IV, imprisoned in the tower and prompty murdered. The skeleton of Henry VI has been exhumed and studied to see if the cause of death could be worked out, the skull was fractured.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some say two people were supposedly present, both of them were brothers of Edward IV. One was George the Duke of Clarence (who was later murdered himself by being drowned in a barrel of Malmsey wine on the orders of his brother Edward IV), the other was Richard, Duke of Gloucester. Who if Shakespeare is to be believed not only personally delivered the fatal blow to Henry VI, and was the one holding his brother in the barrel, but also smothered his two young nephews Edward V and prince Richard (the heirs of his brother Edward).</p><p><br /></p><p>But it&#039;s best not to believe the bard that was trying to make his way in Tudor England i suppose, wouldn&#039;t do to question the new dynasty would it?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
