Photography by John Ball - 20 June 1999(with an Agfa ePhoto307 digital camera) The town of Pembroke has one of the largest castles in Wales.
It was never a royal castle, but was the residence of lords and the administrative centre of their territories. The first castle, a wooden structure, was built on this site in 1093 by Earl Roger de Montgomery. The stone keep and inner ward were built in the late 12th century by William Marshal, Earl of Pembroke and Regent to Henry III during the king's infancy. A detailed history of Pembroke Castle is given on Jeff Thomas's Castles of Wales website. Above: The Keep (left), Dungeon Tower (centre), and Buttery (right). Pembroke Story. Jasper Tudor, Earl of Pembroke. Jasper Tudor, son of Catherine of Valois, the French widow of Henry V and Owen Tudor, her Welsh clerk of the Wardrobe was born circa 1431 at the Bishop of Ely's manor at Hatfield in Hertfordshire.
It is not known with certainty whether he was born legitimately after his parents were secretly married. By all accounts Owen, a descendant of Anglesey landowners, was a handsome young man, the chroniclers dwell upon the beauty, at some point he became the Dowager Queen's lover. Legend relates that Owen caught the Queen's eye when she saw him swimming, or that he tripped and fell into her lap when dancing.
The affair is thought to have started at Leeds Castle in Kent. No documentation has survived of Catherine's marriage to Owen Tudor in 1429. Jasper Tudor, duke of Bedford. Jasper Tudor, duke of BedfordWelsh noble Also known as Earl of PembrokeJasper of Hatfield born c. 1430 died.
The Tudors in the Wars of the Roses, Part Two. After the victory of Edward's forces at Mortimer's Cross, Jasper and the Earl of Wiltshire fled in disguise.
Jasper returned to Pembroke and tried to rally the spirits of the Lancastrian supporters. At the same time, Margaret of Anjou and her son, Prince Edward, were moving south after their victory at Wakefield. They met the Yorkist forces at St. Albans and were victorious. Margaret and son were reunited with Henry VI, who had been a prisoner since the summer of 1460. Edmund and Jasper Tudor and Margaret Beaufort. In 1452, Edmund and Jasper Tudor were formally brought into the royal family and were made earls: Edmund the Earl of Richmond and Jasper the Earl of Pembroke.
Their brother Owen was already a monk at Westminster Abbey. It is not really possible that the two Tudor brothers were looked to as heirs of Henry VI (who had been married to Margaret of Anjou for seven years but still had no children). They had been formally recognized at the half brothers of the King whose uncles -- other possible heirs -- were all dead by this time. But the Tudors had no blood connection to the English throne at this time (although they did to the throne of France through their mother Katherine of Valois).
