Elizabeth Tudor (July 2, 1492 – September 14, 1495) was the second daughter and fourth child of Henry VII of England and Elizabeth of York.
Elizabeth was brought up in the nursery at Eltham Palace in Kent. A marriage to the French prince Francis (later Francis I) was being proposed when she died of atrophy, around six months before the birth of her sister Mary. Elizabeth was buried in Westminster Abbey in the Chapel of St. Edward the Confessor.
Her older siblings were Arthur, Prince of Wales, Margaret and the future Henry VIII. Her younger siblings were Mary, Edmund, Duke of Somerset and Katherine.
