Lady Margaret Butler, Lady Boleyn[2] (c. 1454[3] \endash 1539) was an Irish noblewoman, the daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Butler, 7th Earl of Ormond. She married Sir William Boleyn and through her eldest son Sir Thomas Boleyn, was the paternal grandmother of Anne Boleyn, second wife of King Henry VIII of England, and great-grandmother of Anne and Henry's daughter, Elizabeth I of England.
She was born at Kilkenny Castle in County Kilkenny, Ireland, the daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Butler, 7th Earl of Ormond and Anne Hankford. Her paternal grandparents were James Butler, 4th Earl of Ormond and Joan de Beauchamp. Her maternal grandparents were Sir Richard Hankford (c. 1397 \endash 1431) and Anne de Montagu.

She had two sisters: Anne who married Sir James de St. Leger, by whom she had issue, and Elizabeth. Anne and Margaret claimed to be co-heiresses of their father and the Earldom of Ormond, but their cousin, Piers Butler, who had physical control of the Irish estates and the backing of the Irish Council, claimed to be the heir through the direct male line. In 1520, the King granted her a pardon for the alienation of Fritwell Manor, Oxfordshire.[4] The issue wasn't resolved until 1528, by which time Margaret's position was good, with the influence of her granddaughter, then betrothed to Henry VIII, and Margaret's son, Thomas Boleyn's, status as King's adviser.[5]

In 1465 Margaret married Sir William Boleyn, and in total they had ten children. Her son, the ambitious courtier Sir Thomas Boleyn, became the first Earl of Wiltshire and by his marriage to Elizabeth Howard, the Duke of Norfolk's daughter, was the father of Anne Boleyn, Queen Consort of England. Thus, Margaret was great-grandmother to Queen Elizabeth I of England.

Margaret's role in the rise and fall of the Boleyn clan is unknown, although there has been much speculation and theorizing.[citation needed] From c. 1519 onwards she was declared by inquisition to have suffered periods of insanity making her incapable of managing her own estates.[6]

She was the last of the Boleyns to live in Hever Castle as it was given to Anne of Cleves in 1540 sometime after her death. Margaret's lands were claimed by her only surviving grandchild, Mary Boleyn and her husband William Stafford

Margaret married Sir William BULLEN [120928] about Nov 1469. William was born in 1451 in Blickling Norfolk England and died on 10 Oct 1505 at age 54. Another name for William was William BOLEYN.

General Notes: Wikipedia says,
Sir William Boleyn (1451 \endash 10 October 1505) was a wealthy and powerful landowner and High Sheriff in Kent and East Anglia in the late 15th century.[1] He was the father of Thomas Boleyn, 1st Earl of Wiltshire, and the paternal grandfather of King Henry VIII's second Queen, Anne Boleyn.
William Boleyn was born at Blickling, Norfolk.[5] He was the younger of the two sons of Sir Geoffrey Boleyn, a wealthy citizen Mercer and Lord Mayor of London in 1457-58,[6] and his wife, Anne Hoo (c. 1424-1484), only child of the first marriage of Thomas Hoo, Baron Hoo and Hastings to Elizabeth daughter of Sir Nicholas Wychingham of Norfolk.[7] Sir Geoffrey died testate in 1463.[8]

Before November 1469 William Boleyn married Margaret Ormond (otherwise Butler), second daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Butler, 7th Earl of Ormond (died 3 August 1515) by his first wife, Anne Hankford.[9] She carried the manor of Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, in marriage to her husband. [10] They had six sons and four daughters.[11]

As heir, William succeeded his elder brother, Thomas Boleyn Esquire of London, who died in 1471:[9][12] Thomas asked to be buried beside his father in St Lawrence's church in the Old Jewry, City of London,[13] and made his mother his executor, instructing her to sell his manor of Ingham, Norfolk.[14] William eventually succeeded to Blickling and other estates of his father's. He was admitted to the Mercers' Company in 1472, and (by special admission) to Lincoln's Inn in 1473.[15]

In the mid-1440s Sir Thomas Hoo received the lordship of Hastings, the Garter, and his baronial title, and made his second marriage. He then secured his various manors to his own heirs and those of his younger half-brother, Thomas Hoo Esquire.[16] Lord Hoo and Hastings died in 1455:[17] his brother settled the manor and advowson of Mulbarton, Norfolk on Geoffrey and Anne Boleyn, and when Anne died a widow in 1484 they descended to Sir William, who presented to the joint rectoriate of Mulbarton cum Keningham in 1494, 1497 and 1500.[18] In 1487, on the death of Thomas Hoo, Esq., without issue, then by a feoffment made in 1473 (and not as heir general) William Boleyn became seised of the manor of Offeley St Leger in Offeley and Cokernhoe, Hertfordshire, and others in Sussex.[19]

Boleyn was created a Knight of the Bath at the Coronation of Richard III in 1483.[14][20] In August of that year the Duke of Norfolk, Lord High Admiral, constituted Sir William his deputy for all the coasts of Norfolk and Suffolk, for life.[21] He was charged by Henry VII with responsibility for the beacons which were used to warn in the event of an attack on English shores.[22] He served (as of Hever Castle) as High Sheriff of Kent in 1489[23] and was High Sheriff of Norfolk and Suffolk in 1500.
His will was proved in 1505,[25] in which he requested to be buried in Norwich Cathedral beside the grave of his mother Dame Anne Boleyn, and bestowed his various manors in Norfolk, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Kent.[14] Sir William was a considerable benefactor to the fabric of Norwich Cathedral, to adorning the arches in the choir, where his arms were displayed in various places. His arms also appear in St Gregory's church, Norwich, and his house was adjacent to that of Sir Miles Stapleton's. His tomb slab in the Cathedral as seen by Blomefield in 1743 was on the south side on the presbytery steps, and had been despoiled of its brasses, but formerly bore the inscription "Hic jacet Corpus Willelmi Boleyn Militis, qui obijt X Octobris Anno Dni: MoCCCCCovo, Cuius anime propicietur Deus Amen." The heraldry displayed on this stone was as follows:
