  • Name Henry POLE  [1, 2
    • He was employed in the household of King Henry VIII as early as Nov. 1509, and appears to have been known as Lord Montagu from 1514. In 1538 he (as grandson of George, Duke of Clarence) and Henry Courtenay, Marquess of Exeter (as grandson of King Edward IV), became the victims of the King's fears that one of them might be chosen in his place if he were dethroned. Henry Pole, Lord Montagu, was beheaded on Tower Hill on 9 Jan. 1538/9. [1]
