[edit] move
Proposal: Henrietta Maria of France be moved to Henrietta Maria of France. (made by Mowens) as per Wiki naming guidelines for former queens consort.
[edit] misc
Does anybody know of a member of the court of Queen Henrietta Maria of France by the name of Cox or cock or perhaps Coq. I am trying to help a friend to do some research. He was apparently a an officer of her guard or a messenger. I would be delighted if you could point me in the right direction. Thanks Lawrence Farrell
[edit] Murder claims
Buckingham was murdered in August 1628, probably with the backing of Queen Henrietta and her French faction at the Royal court.
- Buckingham was murdered by Sir John Felton, who had served in the recent campaigns and was reflecting public mood. Is there any evidence that Henrietta Maria had anything to do with it? Sonic Mew | talk to me 18:26, 21 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Widow
This section had been removed. I've reverted that edit, but if there is a genuine reason to remove it, maybe it should be discussed here, on the talk page first. --Xagent86 (Talk | contribs) 07:12, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Suggestion to merge Descendants page
Decendants_of_Henrietta_Maria_de_Bourbon
Some one suggested that they be merged but other editors have complained about the decendants being to much of a monster. I had to agree and feel that seperate Descendants and Ancesters pages be made but linked from main article.
What I am trying to do is do wot I iz done so far but have each image allowing you to drill up/down following the lines of descent/ascent. I feel kids find it fun and can relate to these things better.
in summary, I don't mind but I think the main page will become to large. --Nexus5 21:02, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Maryland
The U.S. state of Maryland (in Latin, "Terra Mariae") was so named in her honour by Cæcilius Calvert, son of George Calvert, 1st Baron Baltimore.
This claim is referenced to this page, but I don't see anything on there that actually supports the specifics mentioned here. My source tells the story slightly differently and with extra detail, so I rewrote it and referenced. The name was given by Charles II, and it was Lord Baltimore the father who dealt with Charles over the issue. Baltimore died very shortly after that, but in any case it was not his son who gave Maryland its name.

[edit] Henrietta Maria's Birthday
The date for Henrietta Maria's birthday was incorrect. It was not November 25th but November 16th. This has been corrected. This should also address the query above. Charles I's birthday was on November 19th, and thus as a result these two birthdays sandwiched the once popular celebration of November 17th (Elizabeth's coronation). Parishes were therefore ordered to ring in celebration of these two birthdays so as to prevent them from being overshadowed by the celebrations for Elizabeth that had come back into vogue in the 1620s.
