Did Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard ever meet?
Rating: +0
I don't think there's any evidence that they met. There was quite an age difference between them - Anne was born c1501 and Catherine c1520/1521 - and although they were cousins (Catherine's father was a younger brother of Anne's mother), Catherine's branch of the family was not very well off or well-to-do. Anne Boleyn, however, did help Catherine's father, Edmund, become Controller of Calais in 1531 which is when Catherine went to live with the Dowager Duchess of Norfolk.
