Dear Newsgroup ~
Those interested in the Tudor time period will enjoy reading the
contemporary account cited below of the 1486 baptism at St. Swithin's
Priory, Westminster of Arthur Tudor, eldest son of King Henry VII and
his wife, Elizabeth of York.
St Swithin's Priory is usually the one in Winchester, Hampshire (I'm not
aware of another)
Best wishes
Ian
