You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Elizabeth FitzHugh''' (1455/65 – before 10 July 1507) also known as Lady Elizabeth Parr. She was an English noblewoman and lady-in-waiting to her cousin, [[Anne Neville]], queen consort of King [[Richard III]].<ref>J. L. Laynesmith. The Last Medieval Queens
English Queenship 1445-1503, 2004, pg 228.</ref> She was grandmother of [[Catherine Parr]], sixth queen consort to King [[Henry VIII]], and her siblings [[Anne Herbert, Countess of Pembroke]], and [[William Parr, 1st Marquess of Northampton]].

==Family==
((Moresources|section|date=December 2022))
Elizabeth was possibly born at the family's ancestral home, [[Ravensworth Castle (North Yorkshire)|Ravensworth Castle]] in [[North Yorkshire]], [[England]]. She was the daughter of [[Henry FitzHugh, 5th Baron FitzHugh]] of Ravensworth.<ref>Douglas Richardson. ''Plantagenet Ancestry'', Genealogical Publishing Com, 2004. pp. 144, 561.</ref> and his wife [[Alice Neville|Lady Alice Neville]], daughter of [[Richard Neville, 5th Earl of Salisbury]] and [[Alice Montagu, 5th Countess of Salisbury]] ''suo jure'', only daughter and heiress of [[Thomas Montacute, 4th Earl of Salisbury]] and [[Eleanor Holland, Countess of Salisbury|Lady Eleanor Holland]]. Her paternal grandparents were William FitzHugh, 4th Baron FitzHugh and Margery Willoughby.

Through her grandfather, the Earl of Salisbury, she was a niece of [[Richard Neville, 16th Earl of Warwick]] (known in history as "Warwick, the Kingmaker"), and grandniece of [[Cecily Neville, Duchess of York]] (the mother of King [[Edward IV]] and King [[Richard III]]).

Elizabeth had nine siblings, including Lady [[Alice FitzHugh]] and Richard, 6th Baron FitzHugh (c. 1456 – 20 November 1487) who married Elizabeth Burgh, daughter of Sir [[Thomas Burgh of Gainsborough|Thomas Burgh, 1st Baron Burgh of Gainsborough]] and his wife, Margaret de Ros. Their son, George FitzHugh, inherited the barony but after his death in 1513, the barony fell in abeyance between Elizabeth and her older sister, [[Alice FitzHugh|Alice]]. This abeyance continues today between the two families.<ref>Crofts Peerage Online [http://www.cracroftspeerage.co.uk/online/content/FitzHugh1321.htm#FITZHUGH_1321_2 Baron FitzHugh] ((webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120316224625/http://www.cracroftspeerage.co.uk/online/content/FitzHugh1321.htm#FITZHUGH_1321_2 |date=March 16, 2012))</ref>

The current co-heirs to the barony are:
* [[Rachel Douglas-Home, 27th Baroness Dacre]] née Brand (b. 1929)
* Hon. Tessa Ogilvie Thompson née Brand (b. 1934)
* Francis Brand, 7th [[Viscount Hampden]] (b. 1970)
* [[William Herbert, 18th Earl of Pembroke]] (b. 1978)

==Life==
Elizabeth is said to have had an easy-going and pleasure-loving disposition. After her husband Sir [[William Parr (died 1483)|William Parr]] died in 1483, Elizabeth, who was possibly around twenty-three at the time, was left with four small children. As a widow, Elizabeth's life revolved around the court. Elizabeth served as [[lady-in-waiting]] to [[Richard III]]'s queen consort, her cousin, [[Anne Neville]]. Elizabeth would be second in a four generation span of family that would serve England's queens which started in 1483 with her mother, the redoubtable [[Alice Neville|Alice Neville, Lady FitzHugh]]. Her granddaughter, [[Anne Herbert, Countess of Pembroke|Anne Parr]] would continue the tradition by becoming lady-in-waiting to all six of [[Henry VIII]]'s wives. Even Anne's sister, [[Catherine Parr|Katherine Parr]], who later became queen served in the household of the [[Mary I of England|Princess Mary]] until she caught the eye of King Henry.<ref name="James"/>

After the overthrow of the [[House of York]], Elizabeth made a second marriage with a protégé of [[Lady Margaret Beaufort|Margaret Beaufort]], Sir [[Nicholas Vaux, 1st Baron Vaux of Harrowden|Nicholas Vaux]] (later Baron Vaux), which is reputed to have saved the family fortunes.<ref name="James">James, Susan. ''Catherine Parr: Henry VIII's Last Love''. (2009), pg 15, 81.</ref>

==Marriages and Issue==
She married first [[William Parr (died 1483)|Sir William Parr of Kendal]], a man maybe 28 years her senior. William was a [[Knight of the Garter]] who was held high in favour with King [[Edward IV of England|Edward IV]], who by marriage was a cousin to him. He fought with the [[House of Neville|Nevilles]] on the [[House of York|Yorkist]] side at the [[Battle of Edgecote Moor]]. Elizabeth did not give birth to her first child until she was aged about sixteen.
Elizabeth and William had the following children:
* Anne Parr (d. 1513), who married Sir Thomas Cheney of Irthlingborough. Their daughter Elizabeth married [[Thomas Vaux, 2nd Baron Vaux of Harrowden]], son of [[Nicholas Vaux, 1st Baron Vaux of Harrowden]] by his second wife, Anne Green. This Anne was sister of [[Maud Green]], who married Anne's brother Thomas Parr (below), meaning Anne Green was both aunt and mother-in-law to Elizabeth.<ref name="James"/>
* [[Sir Thomas Parr]] (c. 1483 – 1517), who was the eldest son, was knighted and was sheriff of Northamptonshire in 1509; he was master of the wards and comptroller to Henry VIII. He was rich, owing to his succeeding, in 1512, to half the estates of his cousin, Lord FitzHugh, and also to his marriage with [[Maud Green]], daughter and coheiress of [[Sir Thomas Green]] of Boughton and Greens Norton in Northamptonshire. He died on 12 November 1518 and was buried in the [[Blackfriars, London|church of the Blackfriars in London]]. His widow died on 1 September 1532 and was buried beside him. Of their children, [[Catherine Parr|Katherine Parr]], queen consort of [[Henry VIII]], and, [[William Parr, 1st Marquess of Northampton|William Parr]] (afterwards Marquess of Northampton) are well known; while a daughter, [[Anne Herbert, Countess of Pembroke|Anne]], married [[William Herbert, 1st Earl of Pembroke (died 1570)|William Herbert, 1st Earl of Pembroke]] of the tenth creation.
* [[William Parr, 1st Baron Parr of Horton]] (c. 1483 – 1547), the second son, was knighted on 25 October 1513,<ref>Metcalfe, Walter Charles, ed., ''Book of Knights Banneret, Knights of the Bath etc., IV Henry VI to 1660'', London (1885), p. 50, at the [[battle of Guinegate (1513)|siege of Tournai]]</ref> was sheriff of Northamptonshire in 1518 and 1522 and, after his niece [[Catherine Parr|Katherine Parr]]'s promotion to queen consort, he became her chamberlain. On 23 December 1543 he was created Baron Parr of Horton, Northamptonshire. He died on 10 September 1547 and was buried at Horton (for his tomb, see Bridges, Northamptonshire, i. 370). By Mary, daughter of Sir William Salisbury, he left four daughters. 
* John Parr (d. 8 September 1508), married Constance, daughter of Sir Henry Vere of Addington, Surrey. They had no issue.

After the death of Sir William Parr, Elizabeth married [[Nicholas Vaux, 1st Baron Vaux of Harrowden|Sir Nicholas Vaux]] as his first wife.<ref>History of Parliament, a biographical dictionary of Members of the House of Commons</ref> Their issue includes:
* Katherine Vaux (c. 1490 – c. 1571), married Sir [[George Throckmorton]] of Coughton and had issue.
* Alice Vaux (d. 1543), married Sir Richard Sapcote c. 1501. They had at least one child, Anne.
* Anne Vaux, married [[Sir Thomas Le Strange|Sir Thomas Lestrange]] (1493–1545) and had issue.
