May 19 in Tudor England

 May 19 is really a pretty signicant and crazy day in Tudor History. 

-  1499 – Catherine of Aragon is married by proxy to Arthur, Prince of Wales. Catherine is 13 and Arthur is 12.  

- 1536 – Anne Boleyn, the second wife of Henry VIII of England, is beheaded for adultery, treason, and incest. 

- 1568 – Queen Elizabeth I of England orders the arrest of Mary, Queen of Scots.
