Marriages and Issue
Edmund Dudley married around 1494 Anne Windsor, sister of Andrew Windsor, 1st Baron Windsor, with whom he had a daughter, Elizabeth, who was born c. 1500 and later married William Stourton, 7th Baron Stourton. Dudley's next marriage, between 1500 and 1503, to Elizabeth Grey (c. 1480–1525), the daughter of Edward Grey, 4th Viscount Lisle, was a sign of his rising social status. Three sons were born to this marriage: John (1504–22 August 1553), later Duke of Northumberland; Andrew (c. 1507–1559); and Jerome (d. after 1555). Jerome Dudley was destined for the Church by his father, yet was mentally or physically incapacitated.

Famous quotes containing the words marriages and/or issue:
“Good marriages are made in heaven. Or some such place.”
—Robert Bolt (1924–1995)
“I find it profoundly symbolic that I am appearing before a committee of fifteen men who will report to a legislative body of one hundred men because of a decision handed down by a court comprised of nine men—on an issue that affects millions of women.... I have the feeling that if men could get pregnant, we wouldn’t be struggling for this legislation. If men could get pregnant, maternity benefits would be as sacrosanct as the G.I. Bill.”
—Letty Cottin Pogrebin (20th century)
