Notes for James (Spouse 1)
Yorkist Knight.
Sir James Harrington was not mentioned by any contemporary chroniclers as being present at Bosworth on 22 August 1485, and this has led some historians to believe he was present but survived.[45] However, the Harrington family tradition holds that he died there, and the later Ballad of Bosworth Field claimed he, with other northern knights, brought "a mighty many" there; he was certainly excluded from the general pardon of 1486 and attainted in 1487. (Pollard, A.J., North Eastern England During the Wars of the Roses: : Lay Society, War, and Politics 1450–1500, Oxford 1990, p. 363) (Dockray, K., 'The Political Legacy of Richard III' in Griffiths, R.A. & Sherborne, J. (eds.), Kings and Nobles in the Later Middle Ages, New York 1986, p. 221) (Pollard, A.J., North Eastern England During the Wars of the Roses: : Lay Society, War, and Politics 1450–1500, Oxford 1990, p. 363 n. 76; Pollard suggests 'the Harringtons were victims of Stanley vindictiveness. For them Bosworth was the resolution of a long-standing feud’)
As a Knight of the Body, and a member of the King's Household,[51] it is likely that Sir James Harrington took part in Richard's fatal charge,[52] and may have been his standard bearer. (Kendall, P.M., Richard III, Aylsbury (repr.)1972) (Hammond, P. Richard III and the Bosworth Campaign, Barnsley 2012, p. 101)
