As part of the celebrations for Queen Anne Boleyn’s Coronation in 1533, eighteen men were created Knights of the Bath.

You can read all about this ceremony and the men who were chosen in my article 30th May 1533 – The Knights of the Bath, but the list of men included Sir Francis Weston, who was executed in May 1536 in the coup against Anne Boleyn, and Henry Grey, Marquess of Dorset, and father of Lady Jane Grey.
