of See also:Gloucester, youngest son of See also:Edward III.; Henry's mother was See also:Margaret, daughter of Edmund See also:Beaufort, 2nd duke of See also:Somerset, grandson of See also:John of Gaunt. Thus he came on both sides of the See also:blood royal, and this, coupled with the vastness of his See also:inheritance, made the See also:young duke's future of importance to Edward IV. He was recognized as duke in 1465, and next See also:year was married to See also:Catherine Woodville, the See also:queen's See also:sister. On reaching manhood he was made a See also:knight of the Garter in 1474, and in 1478 was high steward at the trial of See also:George, duke of See also:Clarence. He had not otherwise filled any position of importance, but his fidelity might seem to have been secured by his See also:marriage. However, after Edward's See also:death, Buckingham was one of the first persons worked upon by See also:Richard, duke of Gloucester. It was through his help that Richard obtained See also:possession of the young See also:- KING

constable of all the royal castles in the principality and Welsh See also:Marches. In the proceedings which led to the deposition of Edward V. he took a prominent See also:part, and on the 24th of See also:June 1483 he urged the citizens at the See also:Guildhall to take Richard as king, in a speech of much eloquence, " for he was neither unlearned and of nature marvellously well spoken " (More). At Richard's See also:coronation he served as chamberlain, and immediately afterwards was made constable of See also:England and confirmed in his See also:powers in Wales. Richard might well have believed that the duke's support was secured. But See also:early in See also:August Bucking-See also:ham withdrew from the See also:court to See also:Brecon. He may have thought that he deserved an even greater See also:reward, or possibly had dreams of establishing his own claims to the See also:crown. At all events, at Brecon he See also:fell somewhat easily under the See also:influence of his prisoner, John See also:Morton (q.v.), who induced him to give his support to his See also:cousin Henry Tudor, earl of See also:Richmond. A widespread See also:plot was soon formed, but Richard had early warning, and on the 15th of See also:October, issued a See also:proclamation against Buckingham. Buckingham, as arranged, prepared to enter England with a large force of Welshmen. His advance was stopped by an extraordinary See also:flood on the See also:Severn, his See also:army melted away without striking a See also:blow, and he himself took See also:refuge with a follower, See also:Ralph See also:Bannister, at Lacon See also:- HALL
