When was Anne Boleyn born?

Rating: +2

Positive Negative

Historians once believed that Anne Boleyn was born around 1506 or 1507 but it has now come to light, from letters that Anne wrote to her father, that Anne was a maid of honour at the court in Brussels in 1513, a position that would not have been open to a girl of 6 or 7. A birthdate of 1501 seems more reasonable, making Anne 35 when she died. We do not know the day or month of her birth.
See Chronology for more information on her life.

    We don’t know her date of birth. Some historians believe she was born in 1501 and others think 1507, I believe 1501.
