Dear Joseph,

The banners being carried beside by twelve peers Queen Elizabeth I’s hearse are as follows:

 

Far side

 

1) King Henry II & Eleanor of Aquitaine (Carried by Lord Norris)

 

2) King Henry III & Eleanor of Provence (Carried by Lord Chandos)

 

3) King Edward II & Isabel of France (Carried by Lord Darcy of the South)

 

4) Edmund of Langley, Duke of York & Isabel of Castile (Carried by Lord Windsor)

 

5) Richard, Duke of York & Cicely Neville* (Carried by Lord Dudley)

 

6) King Henry VII & Elizabeth, daughter of Kind Edward IV (Carried by Lord Cobham)

 

Near side

 

1) King John & Isabella of Angouleme (Carried by Lord Compton)

 

2) King Edward I & Eleanor of Castile (Carried by Lord Rich)

 

3) King Edward III & Philippa of Hainault (Carried by Lord Cromwell)

 

4) Richard, Duke of Cambridge & Anne Mortimer (Carried by Lord Darcy of the North)

 

5) King Edward IV & Elizabeth Woodville (Carried by Lord Gray)

 

6) King Henry VIII & Anne Boleyn (Carried by Lord De La Warr)

 

All are forebears of Queen Elizabeth I.

 

* The Neville impalement has been tinctured incorrectly as ‘Azure a saltire argent’ whereas it should ‘Gules a saltire argent’.

 

I trust that the above assists?

 

With every good wish

 

John
