Hi, Our family name is Blount, and we have heard family rumours that we are relations with Elizabeth "Bessie" Blount, later she re-married a few times and became Elizabeth Tailboys-Fiennes, I don't know if the following would make the search easier, she was the only acknowledged mistress of King Henry VIII, who also bore a Male child (Illegitimate) who was also acknowledged, called Henry Fitzroy.
I have a disability and get very confused with all the information, so if somebody that doesn't get confused, could help that would be great, My Great Grandfather' name was Thomas E Blount (1915-2000), and possibly my 3rd Great Grandfather' name, but I'm not 100% sure on this, was Edward Blount.
She was born 1502, in Shropshire, and my 3rd Great Grandfather (if I have the right one) was a resident in Shropshire, I don't know if "Shropshire" is a coincidence, but as Bessie had titles attached to her name, I don't know if the Blount name would have stayed in and around Shropshire (I may have worded that wrong, but I know what I mean in my head)
Thanks in Advance
Marcus
