Question from Mike - Anne Boleyn's year of birth

Does anyone know the exact date/year that Anne Boylen was born? Everywhere I've read so far has given me conflicting dates.

4 comments:

  1. 1501 is the date supported by Eric Ives, the most highly respected biographer of Anne, and is the date most often accepted by historians. Retha Warnicke and a minority of others suggest 1507, and 1504 is often used as a compromise date.

  2. To get another perspective of Anne and her reign, I suggest Retha Warncike's book on her.

  3. 1501, 1502, or 1507 are the most popular guesses.
