Jane Seymour (c. 1509-1537), Queen Consort of England (1536-1537) as the third wife of King Henry VIII. The sister of Edward Seymour, and probably born in Wiltshire, she served as a lady in waiting to Catherine of Aragón and later to Anne Boleyn, the first two wives of Henry. Less than two weeks after the execution of Anne Boleyn (1536), Jane privately married the king. She died on October 24, 1537, 12 days after giving birth to her son, Edward, Henry's only male heir, later King Edward VI.
